director in the Underwood Typewriter
company, the Equitable Life Insurance
Corporation. ETC. What was the reason
OF the appointment of this untried man
who had never been distinguished in
either politics, letters or diplomacy?
Contributed $4,000.
In the first place, he was the chair
man of the Democratic finance com.
mittee in the campaign of 1912. Ac-
cording to the report furnished by the
Democratic national committe, as re-
ported in the Congressional Record of
Aug. 10, 1916 (see Page 1884, he con-
tributed to the McCombs prenomina.
ton fund to secure the nomination of
Mr.. Wilson the sum of $4,000. and
then to the general fund for Mr.. Will
sons election the further sum of
$4,000 or 100000 in all.
PenfieId Makes Gift
The embassy at Vienna appears to
have bestowed upon another extensive
contributor to Mr.. Wilson'S campaign
fund. Fred c. Penfield was the happy
recipient and he had contributed, ac-
cording to the same authority, to the
McCoombs denomination fund $4,000
and to the fund for Mr. Wilson's elect.
ion $4,000, being $4,000 in all.
The embassy to Germany, the most
important of all our foreign posts ex-
cept England, was bestowed upon
James w. Gerard who had contribute
ed, according to the same authority,
S13,500 to the Democratic campaign
fund. Mr.. Gerard, like Mr. Morgen-
than, was absolutely without diplo-
matte experience. Not single ele-
ment Of diplomatic qualification is
his career. He was even earlier than
Mr.. Morganthau in securing his place,
for he was appointed ambassador to
Germany in July, 1918
The gist of the matter was that the
President had appointed man with
out experience who had contributed
S13,500 to the campaign fund.
Many Other Examples.
Many more cases could be cited.
William F. McMcCoombs contributed
S11, 900 to the denomination fund and
is offered the Enthusiastically to
France. Charles R. Crane contributed
$4,000 for political purposes and is
offered, but declines, the ambassador
ship to Russia. Another man contrib
uted $4,000 and is made minister to
Uruguay. Of twenty-five members in
the diplomatic service displaced to
make room for others, hardly any of
the new incumbents had had any ex-
perience.

President a Safe Guide

1t is not an hour for either little politics
or sensational journalism. The clamor of
the jingoes should not be allowed to drown
the voice of rational, deliberate statesman
ship. It is pretty safe rule, when we
come to deal with grave international prob
lens, to put our faith in the President of
the United States and follow Where he
may lead. He speaks for the country
when we come to deal with international
affairs. The President of the United
States is safer guide than sensationalists
and the soldiers of fortune who come to
the surface whenever international contro-
versies arise.

Exploiters Wanted Intervention

Exploiters Wanted Intervention
have no doubt that the disturbances in
Mexico during the last few years have been
due, in a greater or less degree, to an eff
fort on the part of ambitious, cunning
men to force intervention and possibly an
nexation to the United States.
The exploiters of public utilities and of
the mineral and agricultural resources of
our neighbor have undoubtedly thought
that they would gain much if they could
force intervention by the United States.
There are soldiers of fortune in Mexico
who would undoubtedly welcome such a
contingency.
Sensationalists are adding to the con-
fusion of the situation and making more
difficult the solution of the problem In
tervention in Mexico is of course, not a
matter to be considered lightly; for inter-
vention means war; and war means the
destruction of human lives and the ex-
penditure of hundreds of millions of dol
lars.

DANGER Of CATARRH
S. S. S. the Proper Safeguard.

Catarrh is cold" in its chronic
form. The air is filled with bacteria
which is taken into the mouth and nose
through the process of breathing. When
the body is in a healthy condition no
harm results. But with our modern
methods Of indoor living and sedentary
occupations the mucous membranes are
usually not able to throw off" this
harmful bacteria, making catarrh a
very common ailment. These germs
breed and multiply, causing inflamma-
tion, the blood rushes to the mem
branes to fight off the bacilli. When
the blood Is il a vigorous condition its
defensive" efforts are successful.
Otherwise the cold hangs on"--turns
Into catarrh.
