Never Again Need This Country be 2 Dependent on Europe for Raw Ma

Springfield. Mass. Oct. 2o.-Ameri- can dyes are as good ar German and never again need this country be de- pendent on Europe for the raw ma terials, in the opinion of I. F. Stone and H. Gardner McKerrow. dye manu- lecturers, who addressed the conven- lion of the National Association of Cotton Manufacturers at the closing session yesterday.
 The conclusions reached by both were that in the relatively short time since the war began the industry in this country had been developed to a point where the situation was no long CT serious. MT. Stone explained how the immense d~mand flor coal tar for explosives, with the high prices obtainable. made it pos sible to recover these on a commer- cially profitable basis and in quanti- ties sufhcientsto meet every need.

GOD BLESS YOU. BOYS

(From a sister of one of the boys at
Camp Meade to the boys.)
Go forth boys to the victories great
Fear not any hardships or shell,
And we here will anXiously pray and
wait,
For your safety. peace, and free
dom's yell.
: Go on with hearts and minds big
and strong,
And fight for your beloved ones
and mine,
Then with Gods help you'll come
where you belong,
And for you peace in great glory
shall shine.
You can we'll imagine, just how
great,
Our misery is now, and when you
will us leave,
But to our hearts will answer the
results of fate,
For your freedom, and the great
blessing to live.
To you the dearest sons of our ma
tion,
We give our earnest blessings and
Help your country in each obliga-
The rest we leave to the Good God
above.
Good-by boys, God bless you one
and all,
/ And may the love of heaven and
dear ones true,
| Follow you everywhere our great
| country calls,
Returning, home. love and life are
awaiting you.

FOOD, NOT MONEY

TT is not so much the saving of
money that is important just now
as the saving of food. In a Phila-
delphia restaurant the other day one
woman rebuked a waiter for putting
two Jumps of sugar into her cup in
stead of one, and another chided an
attendant because he served her two
eggs instead of the one she had re-
quested, although the price for two
was the same as for one. These
women understood the condition
with which the world is confronted
which is that if one of us overeats
it means another person in some part
of the world must go hungry.
There is a great scarcity of pro-
visions. This is hard to realize, in
this land of plenty, where the mar
ket stalls are piled high with good
things and the grocer will bring you
almost anything you order, but the
earth at large is living on starva-
ton rations and unless we do our
share to save next winter will be far
worse than the present.

THE PEOPLES FORUM
DEPLORES FACTIONS

To tho Editor of the Telegraph:
May L commend you OH the edi
torial in the issue of November 23rd,
1917, entitled, Get Together"
There is no subject in which the
Republicans of Pennsylvania are,
nor should they be more interesting
subject than the one you have just
written upon, ever been taken up by
your paper than the one you have
just mentioned in your writing.
/ may say that l thought of doing
just what you have done for some
time back thinking that no one was
awake to some of the methods that
is being pulled off by dirty set of
men who look to nothing else than
to disrupt the Republican Party, as
we'll as the Democratic party.
1 have been trying to get this i'm
preston before the right party for
some time back, but it appeared that
no one at that time realized the
danger that both parties was facing,
1 may say that l have put before
some of our best citizens of Harris
burg all but your same thoughts,
and at that time they were perfectly
fearless, until election time came
when they all felt just as / told
them they would.
And again may say l believe that
you see the move that is just on over
newly elected Socialist. 1 believe
you see that these same men mean
I to corrupt all parties, and can fur
ther say if the time comes when our
leaders get together to eliminate the
| factional differences and to cast
aside the different feeling now eX-
! listing, that when that time comes
| that you and L can be present, and
! be heard upon the floor. 1t, l may
say, is my best intention to uphold
| the parties in every respect. believ-
| ing we should have the best of gov
| ernment always, believing that We
have men these days that will sci
all the party rule for the sake of an
! office, irrespective of harm or obli
| cation that these same men are
| pledged to sign.
And with your ideas the same a.
mine, 1 can only believe you are
awake to what is really a benefit Il
| all of us. And again commencing
you for your editorial, and for more
of it to follow, / wish you all thu
success and for better government
in the end. p. l.. SMITH.

CAN'T CONQUER

The German has lost his three
great offensives-the Marne, Verdun
and the submarine campaign. He
pinned all his remaining hopes on
the last and risked getting us into
the war, because he expected to win
before we could become effective. His
real foe now is Britain, still aided
by France, but carrying the burden
of the fight. Tomorrow he will have
a dangerous enemy in the United
States. He can't conquer Britain in
Italy--he can't conquer Britain in
France. He can't conquer the
United States in Italy and he can't
conquer France in Venetia. Neither
can the British conquer Germany at
Jerusalem or in Mesopotamia. If he
can't conquer the British or persuade
them they are conquered the Ger
man will lose the war, even without
Intervention, because the British con-
troll the sea and the German cannot
live permanently without the use OF
the oceans. If he can't force the
British to abandon their blockades
and let his merchant ships out he
must persuade them, and for this he
will \have to pay. His sole currency
is the territory of Britain's allies
which he holds. He has no British
territory, while the British have q
million square miles of his.
Napoleon won Austerlitz, Jena,
FrIedland, Wagram, but he lost his
fight against Europe. He overran all
of Austria and of Prussia and far
more of Russia than the Germans
have overrun. He made q vassal
state of Prussia. a mere recruiting
field of Italy. He dominated Spain
from the Pyrenees to the neutral
strip facing Gibralter, but he ended
his days at St. Helena. When you
compare the Napoleonic achieve
ments which preceded the final de-
feat with the German achievements
you see how incomparably less inn
portant are The later successes. Yet
all the early successes did not give
Napoleon permanent hold on that
for which the Germans have been
fighting for three years without ever
attaining, even for the moment-the
mastery of Europe.
These are considerations which
ought to be borne in mind when the
German makes his next peace offen-
slve, as he very soon will.-Simonds
in Philadelphia Inquirer.

THE sUsoUEHANNA IsIANDs

Is no idle fancy that folks along
the reaches of the north branch
: of the Susquehanna are indulg-
Ing in when they plan to plant will
lows to conserve the islands which
are OF economic or historic interest
to their communities. From all ac-
counts the strenuous river currents
have been carving away, bit by bit,
some of the islands between Sunbury
and Wilkes Barre which are inti-
mately connected with the years that
are gone in that region and afforded
excellent fishing or amusement and,
as in the case of many other islands
d in the same river, some food SUD-
ply. In certain instances the ero-
sion has become a serious matter
and arrangements have been made
to test the value of the willow for
preservation of a couple of islands
which were fortified in Indian war
fare days. Perhaps, this plan may
be the solution of some problems be-
low the confluence of the Susque-
hanna branches and the junction OF
the Juniata.
This city owns a couple of big
islands and may have to own more
in the course of few years. The
river currents here are constantly

FIVE CENT BREAD

MIR. HOOVER would do we'll to
Nl give the public more light on
the item coming out of Paris
yesterday to the effect that bread in
France henceforth by government
decree shall sell for five cents a
pound. Perhaps there is good and
sufficient reason for the difference
between the price of bread here.
where -four is reasonably plentiful
and in France, where it is scarce,
but or the surface it looks as
though the American public is pay
ing more for it's bread than it should.
OF course, wages paid here are
much higher than in France. and
that enters largely into retail prices,
but just how it happens that France
is able to undersell America in this
manner would provide an interesting
chapter in the constant flow of pub
lie information that comes from the
typewriters of the industrious pub
licity workers at the national cap
ital. The American public shows
no Sign of indignation. but it GER
tainly is curious.
