BABIES OR SHELLS?

Dr. Edmund Mach pleads that milk be to Ger many to feed the babies starving there. He wants to have least 12OOoO of the condensed product forwarded by kindly America. The permission of the British is necessary in order to get into Germany.
 The British, it wary of those of con densed milk. Mindful of the wooden horse of Trojan days, they suspect possibilities frightulness in the erstwhile harmless tin
 First they fear the milk is needed much for the babies for the making of high explosives Germany short of fats and the making of nitro gycerin Another danger arises the fact that it would be very difficult to examine the shimpent ade quaely at either end without spelling much real milk and would be very easy slip into containing other things Lastly the tin themselves likely to be useful to the Germans
 It's unfortunate state of things If the milk is honestly intended for little children who it. other purpose, it would be pity prevent it's ship meet. But if the babies being used as cover for securing military supplies that is likely do the babies serious harm. Like the boy in the fable who cried Wolf wolff" when there wolf, and not believed when the wolf did come Germany may later cry in vain for its babies when the wolf starvation bowling at the door.

INTERVENTION.

Undoubtedly of the European veligerents would be nightly pleased the United States intervene Mexico Such action would tie up all available mill tary forces for and require the services large part of navy. More important than that from the standpoint Germany and Aus;r:a especially it would absorb of munitions output and deprive the Allies of great quantities of supplies on which they are now depending.
 Thus if German influence and money have played par; in Mexican troubles. intervention in Mexico today would play into the hands the foreign powers with whom have the serious pend ing. And it is possible imagine situation too in which the employment of army and navy in Mex ican paccation would add to the happiness Japan
 We have of course domestic reasons for bong slow in this matter, long there any possibility of honorable and satisfactory settlement and the destruction of American life and property if intervention would not be costly in life and treasure and would imperil friendship with Latn-Amer- ica the country would naturally hesitate before stalking all its military such adventure in the most critical year of modern history

TRUE ECONOMY.

Economy as Secretary of Commerce Redfeld remarked in recent interpiew is the absence of spending" The who is able spend s1O food for his family and spends only s2 for the purpose isn't economi cal He's wasteful. He wastes the health of his family and in the end he his money doctors bills
 Likewise the manufacturer who, the sake of pro fits. holds his money while he his buildings down and his equipment get repair laying up bib ger expense for the future
 It's the with public funds. We should cease judging any congress by the aggregate expen- dtures," argues the secretary If congress com pared with another has spent siOO0OOOO less may have done wrong and been wasteful the other hand an other congress may have spent $2OOOOOOO more than it's predecessor and still have been much more econom- ica The question is how the money spent results had for the expenditure"
 These tiss, and yet it's necessary to repeat emDasize them For the public tend to judge it. representatives in the city nation too much by the amount Of money they spend by the pur- pose and method of the expenditure.
 h both private and public life probably spend toe little money rather than much Economy becomes q vice instead wise handling of wealth for happy living

With the enormous wealth in her hands, the United States is now in an advantageous position to control the international commerce, and no enc doubts that ere long the trade of all the nations in China will be eclipsec by America. he newspaper points out that China has for some time been the only lucrative market for Japanese products and the future of Japan de pends on the future development Of economic relations with the neighbor- ing republic. Nevertheless, Japanese business men and bankers adopt pas sive attitude, in spite of the fact that idle money is plentiful at home and the countTy's specie reserves contin- ues to steadily increase as a result of the war, Politicians and business men are at present eagerly bent on discuss ing domestic affairs. he hope, how ever, is expressed by the journal that instead of trying to harrass the gov ernment in regard to dohestic ques- tions business men will turn their at tentio nto international affairs, espec- ially to China, where the commercial resources are inexhaastible.

MOTHER BREADS HOSPITALS
Little Sufferer Has Leg Badly Infected
But Mother Refuses Him Chance to
Get Treatment Deemed Necessary
Health Dept. Seeks His Custody.

The City Health Department went
into the courts this morning in an eff
fort to give Stephen Chudada, nine
year old boy, real Christmas present.
Little Stephen is suffering from an in
lection of the leg and physicians de-
clared that if the infection was not
taken care of at once the trouble might
cause the death of the little boy or
force him to live the rest of his life
helpless cripple. Blind prejudice
against physicians and hospitals has
put up barrier between the little boy
| and possible recovery of his health.
Nurses working under the direction
of the health department, have made
an effort to have the, relatives of
Stephen consent to his being taken to
hospital for an operation to prevent
further spread of the infection, but
according to the complaint filed in the
Municipal Court, the mother, Mrs. Rose
| Chudala, has declared that she would
rather have the little boy die than
! to have him taken to the hospital
! or submit to the treatment which
has been suggested.
After many efforts to have the little
| boy placed under proper care, the case
was reported to the district attorney
and he made formal complaint ask
ing the court to declare the boy a
neglected child Mrs. Chudada is to
/ come into court late this afternoon and
answer the complaint The case is
brought in the court in the name Of
DR.. II. L. Wright, commissioner of pub
lie health, and he will be on hond to
| fight for the life of the child In his
complaint DIR. Wright asserts that the
! infection has so far progressed that it
has affected the bone and that if
immediate steps are not taken to
| treat the child that he will become
crippled for life.
| There is no charge that the mother is
/ lacking in parental regard for the lit
| tie boy. So far as the mother knows
/ she has given him the most tender care
and it is on account of her love for the
child that she has protested against his
being taken to hospital. The case
is one of the most unusual ever
brought in the courts Of the county.
