America It is printed in the recent issue of the Actors Equity association official bulletin and reads:
 "It has been drawn to my attention on several occasions that certain jour nals of the United States have made q point of casting q slur upon English actors by accusing them of shirking their duty while enjoying the privilege of American citizenship and benefiting under it's protection.
 That the dispersion is unjust ia shown by the number of actors who have thrown up remunerative W"ri and left America and Canada to join the flag. At the same time reports from your side of the Atlantic show that there still remains the greater percentage of actors of military age

TWO GOOD BILLS ADOPTED.

Senator Creed Caldwell yesterday passed thru the senate bills author izing the Pine Bluff special School district to issue bonds in order to erect a junior high school building, and to authorize the penitentiar, commission to pay leyee, drainage and road district taxes on the penal farm properties in Jefferson and Lin. coin counties. Now, if the senator will just push thru the Magee muni-
 cipal bill he'll have completed three
 pieces of good work. Not many days
 more of the session remain, and un- less MT. Caldwell desires to block the esta blishment of municipal court by amending the measure too late for action by the house or by delaying too long in pushing the bill thru the senate, senatorial action on the munl- cipal court measure ought to come at once. Knowing that practically all his constituents in Pine Bluff favor the establishment of municipal
 court, it is not expected that M' Caldwell will let the Magee bill die on l the senate calendar.

CALDWELL FOR PRESIDENT

Jefferson and Pine Bluff will ap- preciate fully the honor of being ac- corded the president pro tenn of the senate in the person of Senator Creed Caldwell.
 Mr. CaldwelPs long experience in legislative. legal and business affairs; his integrity and staunch manhood, his ability to handle difficult situa- ton. and his diplomacy in matters re- quiring diplomacy, combine to quail fl him for the position of president nro tenn of the senate, and it is diffi- cult to believe that any member ot the present body is better equipped for the place than is MT.

What Premier Lloyd Georges speech to parliament Friday did not allude to was the possible trend of the food situation between now and harvest time, He spoke of the ne- cessity of conserving food on hand, of course, but emphasized the ne cessity of Scientific farming," we might say, this year. But in the mean time the population must be fed somehow, the stock of available food stuffs in the British Isles is the low est in history, scores of British-bound cars of foodstuffs are tied up along the Atlantic seaboard, some half dozen to ten ships loaded with food or coal are being sunk every day, and the prices of food in the Isles arc rapidly soaring beyond the reach Of the poor, necessitating rigid govern- ment interference.
 Between now and the harvest next summer and fall, the food crisis $ bound to be we'll nigh intolerable- if it is anything like as serious as the premier announced it was at pres ent.
 The ban on imports of luxuries should cause the impet Is on food im- portations to be marked So far as the submarines do not interfere. With practically no luxu,ies imported, there will naturally be more ships for necessities; but ths premier does not emphasize this so much as the fact that the importation of iron orc must not be interfered with under any circumstances. This evidently means that the munitions-making ill- dustries are being hit by the u-boa' war quite as much as t .e food supply
 Before the 1917 harvtsts arrive il will be a decidedly hard time fol the people of the world in the mat ter of foodstuffs: and in the case O
 the British isles, no one can tel what will happen. There has neve been a situation like it in the histor, of the world. The weaknesses of isl and empires are being demonstrated And the submarine-their enemy
 whether used legally or illegally are yet in their infancy.

HONORABLE DEEDS

"Shanghied into the European
War" is booklet that should be
widely read. 1t is easy to see that
the writer states the facts-the oc-
currences just as he saw them and a
more vivid picture of the horrors of
Europe's slaughter pen could not
well be imagined There is one
thing that may cause the reader some
which the willy Britons got the writ
er Wallace into their service. Cow
boys are supposed to be up to all
manner of tricks. They are the
wise guys of our western frontier,
but Wallace proved an easy mark
Yet, however, foolish he may have
been in permitting himself to be de-
luded he has certainly done the
world great service.
AS to the taking of German out
RACES to create public sentiment no
doubt such things were done, but for
any one to suppose for a moment
that all accounts of German outrages
in France, Belgium and Poland would
be absurd. The statements made
by members of the Belgian Commits
sion recently in our midst are con-
firmed by the admissions of German
commanders. / have before me a
copy of the front page of "Jane-
risches Lageblatt, October IS, 1914"
published at Janer in eastern Prussia
Those who believe that all accounts
of German atrocities have been faxed
should read this German paper con-
tanning long letter from a fellow
townsman a sub officer Klenet dis
cribing the capture of Hannonville,
Belgium-how they killed all, even
the wounded, taking no prisoners.
He gives all the horrible details of
the massacre winding up his letter
with this pious sentence: "When
night came on we fell asleep with a
coming day.
But what gets my goat is that the
German newspapers should put a
big headline clear across the page
above this account of the merciless
butchery, "a Day Of Honor for Our
Regiment" Gin Lag der Ehre fur
rinser Regiment.)
Can you imagine a town in this
country where the inhabitants are
so brutalized that they would con-
slider such fiendish acts an honor
to any regiment?
That a great majority of the Ger
man people are human, can we'll be-
lieve, but the evidence is before me
that some German communities are
inhuman and when such people form
part of an invading army, atrocities
are bound to be committed, and each
frightful act in their opinion brings
honor to "our Regiment"
