the destruction of factories, fire de-
prives workmen of their usual labor
and stops or delays the increased
production required by war.
Fire is preventable menace;

Where Money Fails

Germans As we'll as Allies should
remember that from now on Ger
many must crush nations she Is fight
ing by war and that she cannot buy
them with money, She has faced
her armies against the last nation
that will retreat either because Of
bribes to officials or Internal disorders.
She has won her lsst victory with
propaganda and from now on she
must win by stand up and knock
down fights. Neither America,
France nor England can be whipped
with anything but cold steel and
bullets. Through her propaganda
work and her ability to buy govern
menk OH cials and her further ability
to create dissension, she has crushed
Russia, Rumanis, Servia, Belgium
and 10 about to crush Italy. But
there she stops. France has taken an
oath never to retreat. The battles
from now on will be with men Of
principle, honor and integrity backed
by governments In whose personnel
cannot be found the Individual who
would sell bis birthright nor his coun-
try for mess Of porridge.
From now on when Germany crush
% . nation IL must be over the dead
bodies Of its heroes.-Denver News
