ABOUT THOSE CHILDREN
or YOURS

One word to the women Of America
who live peaceful lives In happy
homes.
Let US draw n picture for you Of a
scene at Eyian, In France. Six hun.
dred and eighty Belgian children are
leaving a train-thin, slckly. from four
to twelve years OF age-children Of
men who refused to work for the Ger.
mans and OF mothers who let their
children go rather than to let them
starve. They are pouring of the train.
little ones cling!ng to the older ones,
girls all crying. boys trying TO cheer.
They have come all the long way alone.
On the platform are the Red Cross
workers to meet them. Those children
who can walk at all march along
crying, Meat, meat, we are going to
have meat" Their little claw-like
hands are significant.
Two such trains pull into Evian
every day.
Another picture-it appeared In the
illustrated papers recently, II showed
an English widow with her eight chill.
dren and the wording underneath ran
as follows: III the mother ecover
from her injuries she will have six
less mouths to feed-a bomb smashed
their poor little home TO pieces"
DO you care to see a picture OF
Italian life where women and children
are marched In front OF the German
army In order that the Italian soldiers
may kill them II they fire?
Would you care to think OF such
Bcenes as are described in these
words:-'All along the Piave River
Tin italy, last night we could hear the
screams of women In the hands Of the
Germans?"
Women OF America, II Ia to save
your children from such a fate that
you are asked TO economize and save
and loan to the government all the
money you can.
We hope our brave boys and ouE
allies will prevent the Germans from
ever reaching our shores. but even so,
don't you want TO help hght for the
poor children OF Belgium, France and
Italy, Does not your mothers heart
cry out to you to do your share.
Start saving now. and tell your hus
band to start saving now for tho mex,
Liberty Loan.

at is time for us to realize that we
are not living In II fools paradise
that this great country OF ours cost
oceans Of blood and treasure and II is
only due to the loyalty, sacrifice and
service Of our forefathers that we have
a country, and II Is II highest duty
to preserve It unlmpnlred and pass It
on to pOsterlty, no matter what the
cost may be. our citizenship and their
ancestors came from all parts Of the
world to make this country a home
and enjoy It's blessings and opportu-
mites hence, In the crisis before us,
II Is the duty of everyone 10 stand
squarely back Of our country and be
prepared TO defend the flag. Every

can or pro-German. Great as the coun-
try Is, there Is not enough for

FOR wAR-BLINDED SOLDIERS.

To the Editor Of THE EVENING JOUR-
NAL;
Sir.-Statistics furnished by the
French and British authorities TO the
n-British-French-Belg Per-
manent Blind Relief War Fund, OF No.
500 Fifth Avenue, New York, show
that there are in England, France and
Belgium more than 1900 soldiers who
have been totally blinded in the war
and nearly 25OOO blinded in one eye,
a large proportion OF whom will even
tually lose the sight OF the other as
the result Of shock or Of the wounds
themselves. In addition there are in
France alone nearly 200 who besides
losing both eyes have also suffered,
by explosions or amputation, the loss
OF both arms or both legs, or a leg
and a hand, and in many cases have
been rendered stone deaf into the bar
gain.
Consider for a moment what this
means Try TO imagine the tragedy,
the horror OF iti But you cannot. the
thing Is impossible. To understand 10
at all one must be here, IN the midst
OF Il, seeking what there is to see In
the earnest desire to help the suffer
ers and alleviate their torture Of mind
and body, and undergo ones self the
anguish Of such a quest, undertaken
IN order that we Americans may be
privileged TO minister to the victims
stricken in this particular horrible
manner who have fallen by the way
along the Via Dolorosa that leads TO
the salvation Of the world.
This Is a situation with which no
Government. no Red Cross can cope sat

NAL:
Sir.-A woman / know has an idea
that she thinks the patriotic women
Of America might wish 10 utilize. She
is writing her friends TO put the time
or money they would spend on Christ
mas gifts TO her, into Red Cross or
other War Relief work. There IL a
great need for money and supplies
in Europe, why should 10 be thrown
away on useless things here? 10 Is
only the useless giving 10 those in
comfortable circumstances that she
wishes TO eliminate, not that TO the
needy or 90 the children. The Friends
have reconstruction work I'm charge
and seek 20 help start I'm life again
those left homeless by the tides OF
battle. So many things Of all sorts are
necessary. and our stores need not lose
their customary Christmas trade; 10
would only be a different sort Of trade,
useful things instead Of useless. 10
would mean many weary hours saved
TO shoppers and salespeople. mail
clerks and mail carriers, for 10 could
be done systematically now, instead OF
az the last minute. ! see America as
The Savior or Europe, and her women,
by this small sacrifice out Of their
abundance can do this, q mere trine,
beside what our brave boys will do.

RUSSIAN new YEAR
CILDS SEkMY SIDE
OF S0RD|D POLITICS

PETROGRAD, via London, Jan. Is.
The spirit of the Russian new year
day gilded the seamy side of politics
which has. been exhibited fo- so long
in the columns of the press and to-
days newspapers, although pursuing
the usual round of political comment,
abound in optimistic reviews of the
past and forecasts of the future.
Leaders of public organizations such
as the Zemsky Soyuz, whose patriotic
work in the face of great difficulties
mas gained the warm support and ap-
probation Of the country, unite in ex-
pressing the conviction that the in
ternal affairs Of Russia are not be-
yond repair or SO bad as they have
been painted.
The newspapers find another cause
for satisfaction in the allies reply to
the American note and comment on
what they term its precision and dig
nifty as contrasted with opposite quail
ties alleged to be displayed in the
notes of the central powers. The
Rech, however, does not lose sight of
the POLITICAL situation or the new
strength of the reactionaries as shown
in the recent Industrial changes.

Preliminary plans for the defense of
Harry K Thaw, who attempted to
commit suicide here last week. against
the charges of kidnapping and assault
ing Frederick Gump, Jr., of Kansas
City, we're to be discussed today by
his attorneys and friends of the Thaw
family No definite line of procedure,
however. will be decided upon until
Thaw himself is able to confer with
his counsel and advise what course
he desires them to pursue.
This announcement was made by
Henry ]. Scott. one of the Thaw at.
torneys. 'It all depends upon Thaw's
attitude when he comes around" said
Mr.. Scott. CAS- soon as he is better a
conference will be held with him by
members OF the Thaw family and we
will decide what legal course to take. y

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 15-Members

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 15-Members
Of the general assembly returned to
Indianapolis today prepared for a
busy week. Indications are that the
serenity OF the last week will be con-
siderably disturbed before the end of
another legislative week.
Among the most important issues
that promise extraordinary agitation,
both in hotel lobbies and at the state
house. is that which proposes to pro-
hibit the manufacture, sale, gift, ad-
vertisement or distribution of alcohol
ic beverages. 1t is upon this subject
that great number of people are dis
playing interest.
While the Indiana dry federation
has been unremittent in its campaign
among the assembymen, there has been
no moss growing under the feet of the
liberal element. The headquarters of
the latter portion Of Indiana's popula-
tion, for more than a week past, has
been at a downtown hotel, where a
majority of the member of the state
senate has rooms while in the capital.
1t is generally conceded that the big
fight on the temperance question will
come in the senate.

JOURNAL COMMENDS
REPORT BY CHARLES

Commenting on the annual report
of City Engineer Charles Of Richmond
the Municipal Journal, published in
New York, has the following to say in
its current issue:
The first report for the year 1916
reached this Office on January 5, being
that Of the city engineer of Richmond,
Ind. In the fifteen tables presented.
Mr.. Charles shows in detail the work
performed for tie s102,7S5 spent.
He also gives the unit costs, and calls
attention to the fact that "the costs
are shown in accordance with the
Standard Units of the American So
ciety of Municipal improvements,
whereby comparison can be made
with like costs in other cities"
We hope that many more reports
for 1916 will be found to have used
these units; and that all city engi-
reers who have not yet adopted the
units will do so for all wor: of 1917.
Both for his use of these units and for
his promptness in giving to the city
officials and the citizens an account
ing of his years work, we wish to
commend Mr.. Charles for this report.
