The Devils Lake world and inter-ocean. (Devils Lake, N.D.) 1915-1920, 1917-11-15

We do not wish it understood that We stand sponsor for President Flynn of
the City Commission II Chief of Police Timboe, but we believe in being fair
to public officials, and therefore we feel that the "slap" taken at these two
officials in Saturday evenings Journal, relative to the building Of the taber-
nade deserves a word in their behalf. In the first place, there
is a law which prohibits u city commission from granting a permit to build
a frame building in the city limits, and therefore it was impossible for our
city officers to grant a permit to build the tabernacle, and had they done so
they would be subject to removal from office. Mr. Dodge, one of the city
commissioners, and the mai who has the authority to grant permits for
building in the fire limits, was approached, and knowing he had n right to
grant a permit for a frame building, positively refused to grant such a permit
The matter "a talked yer by the city commission when in session, and the
matter pertaining to the building of the tabernacle a turned over to Dr.
w. y. Hooking, a member of the commission. Every member of the COM
mission was perfectly willing that this building should be constructed within
the fire limits, if some method could be arrived at 20 do so without jepardiz-
ing the property belonging to other people, and the next best thing was to
try and obtain the consent of those who would have property in close proxi-
nifty, and which would be subject to a extra hazard by this building being
erected. AS to Chief Timboe, when he appeared o. the scene and asked that
a permit be obtained, " some arrangement made with the city, before the
building was erected, he was absolutely within his rights IS n officer and was
doing his plain duty. The probabilities ire that if he had not done his
plain duty as an official, then there would have been a "holer' the other way
No person wished to prevent the building of the tabernacle, but any fair
minded person must admit that in matters of building frame buildings with
in the fire limits of the city, that the rights of property owners must be con-
suited, or if damage resulted the city might have a nice bill to foot. Really
neither Flynn, Tinboe, or any other member Of the commission did anything
but their plain duty in the matter, and therefore there is no just cause to try
to make them the goats 44M IA

HOW TO WIN THE WAR.

The nations sitting in the Allied war conference in Paris will be the belg-
erents against Ge1many-al of them, numbering into the teens. Their one
purpose will be to determine how to win the Wal. 1t is a determination EASY
to make. There are men, there is money, there will be ships and munitions
in plenty. What is essential is a coherent and consecutive scheme for making
use of themGermany has such a scheme in her "high command, which has
plenary powers in respect of the disposition of any and all the elements
which make var If men aren needed on any front, the high command has
the information and acts upon it. If funds are needed to carry O any o-
eration-from those of military Importance to those of diplomatic incense
quence-the high command knows it and sends the money. If the occasion
requires a larger supply of shells, or a speeding up of submarine construc-
ton, O. a more intensive utilization of a transportation system, the high
nand knows it and shapes its course accordingly The Allies require some
thing OF this sort; and all the more because, unlike the Germans, they are
not performing within the narrow limits of a rather restricted circle, but be-
cause their battle lines arr farfung and often attenuated. Therefore, out Of
the Paris conference should emerge the mechanism for making use of the Al
lied supremacy in all tina goes to make warfare possible. The conference
must provide for some supreme, centralized war council, whose decisions
shall be absolute, whose powers shall be undisputed, and whose personnel will
command the confidence of the nations whom they represent We shall then
match German wits with Allied brainpower, even as W e shall overnatch
them in physical units with which wr is carried on.

UNIONS AND THE UNION

The Bethlehem Steel Co, had two great plans. One a. to complete its
new shipyards on the shores of Boston Bay within three months from the time
work began-that is to say, by January first. The other was to turn out from
that yard its first destroyer by June first. This would have set up two great
worlds records and would have served the double purpose of afording a sig
nal demonstration of the capabliy of American shipbuiders and of adding
wonderfully to the defensive and aggressive power of the nation. But these
pins are not to be realized. The laborers engaged in constructing the yard
went o strike, a sympathetic strike, because the Bethlehem Co, refused to.
make its yards already established at Fore River a "closed shop" The SOM
pany, in other words, took the position that it could not afford to refuse m
poyment to shpbulders and other mechanics simply because they could not
show a union card. In consequence the establishment of the new shipyard
will be delayed, 20 ne a tell how long, the much needed destroyes will
not be built as 500 as they should be, W shall lose a great advantage in
the war-al because a few men think more of their union than they do Of
the Union.

A DEMONSTRATION WITHOUT PARALLEL

With ten million subscribers and we'll above five billion dollars in SUBJ
scrphons, the second Liberty Loan stands forth as a demonstration of nation
VIDE patriotism without parallel. More subscribers and a larger smn than
any war loan of the beligerents has had to its credit art the terms of the
answer which the nation makes to the challenge of the Hun. No one can
view the success of the undertaking from other than the national standpoint,
fer it embodes the national spirit of confidence in the strength and purpose
Of the people to go through with the great task which is before us. This
spirit will not be content with any incommensurate reaction from those to
whose hands the task has been entrusted. The ten million men and women
who have bought the second issue of Liberty Bonds, many of them not to be
found n the roll Of the eight million who took the first issue, o have a
closer tie with the issues and events of the war than ever before. They have
made it their al by giving of their substance to sustain it. And it will have
to be carried on a IS they desire efficiently, economically, patriotcany, sue
