Gratitude and Generosity of Deaf People

It is not generally known that
Frenchmen gave to the deaf people oil
this world the sign language by which
they are able to talk with each other,
and all those who have learned the
sign language. BY way OF showing
their gratitude the deaf people OF the
United States are raising fund among
themselves to buy war ambulance
which they propose to present to the
French government. A Spokane news
item reads:
Spokane deaf folks are responding to
an appeal for funds with which to buy
and equip war ambulance to be sent
to France. The ambulance is to be
driven by a child Of deaf parents,
John K. Cloud, son of the Rev. J. H.
Cloud OF St. Louis, Mo-, and is given
in gratitude to France for the work and
teachings of De Espe, Sicard and Clerc,
who invented the sign language for the
deaf.
''Dr. Hopkin Gallaudet went to
Paris and learned the sign language
and then brought three men to the
United States to start a school for the
deaf, 100 years ago." according to j..
H. O'Leary, one OF the Spokane leaders
in affairs concerning the deaf. All
the deaf people in the United States
appreciate our debt to France. The
ambulance will be bought by funds
secured thru division secretaries OF the
National Fraternal Society OF the Deaf. "

RICH MANS WAR; SAY
TRAITOR AND EDWARDS
Do not Gloss Over His POltrOOnery or
Knayery With the Charitable Charge
of Ignorance

We disagree with the author Of the
subjoined. In the charity Of his nature
he charged the man who goes about say
ing this is Rich Mans war" with
ignorance. II there is man outside
the walls OF lunatic asylum who does
not know better then steps should be
taken to put him there. Oh, no, The
man who says this is rich mans war
is not an ignoramus. He is either a
traitor or a white llvered coward, and
most likely the former He may pre-
tend ignorance, but only with the con-
temptible purpose of hiding his knavery.
Do not call him fool who says this is
rich mans war. That would be doing
him an honor he does not deserve,
About the most disgusting blather
Of anti-war agitation is the charge that
this is "a rich mans war" 1t can
only pass current among the ignorant,
the shallow minded, or the fanatic. 1t
isn't necessary to discuss its fallacy for
readers of the Tribune, but the irony
of it Just now is better when we read
that among the very first sacrifices Of
the war is the crippling, perhaps for
| life, of young aviator, Dawson, son
| of one OF the heads of the house Of
Morgan.
Young Dawson had everything in
the world to live for, materially speak
ing youth, wealth, social advantage,
health, opportunity, education. He
might easily have gone into a safe
branch OF public service if he felt i'm
PEELED to make the gesture of patriot
ism. Instead he chose the most peril
Gus and the most urgently necessary
service, aviation, and for months has
been giving money and time to its de-
velopment and to his own training.
Now he has paid the price of as pure a
patriotic impulse as any man feels.
His sacrifice is rebuke to the shirkeI
in every walk OF life and an inspiration
to every one OF his fellow Americans.
At about the same time Aviator Flesh
man, another young man of wealth and
position, was killed in the same train
ing. Other such men have died in
France in the same cause, and more
will follow them. In Chicago the sons
of rich men" were among the first to
come forward and are to be found in
every branch OF the service. Two OF
the sons of one Of the leading bankers
are in the psrilous air service. The
son OF member of one of the great
mercantile houses is in that service.
Through out the country rich men"
and rich mems sons are giving of life
itself. II this makes a rich mans
war" then this is rich mans war,
but it is poor mans war as well.-

AMERICAN TRANSPORT
DAMAGED BY TORPEDO
Finland Able to Return to
Foreign Port After
Being Struck.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-The trans
port Finland was recently torpedoed
while returning to the United States
but was able to return to foreign
port under her own steam.
The navy department received a
report Of the attack and Secretary
Daniels authorized its publication. The
navy reports do not say whether there
was any loss of life or injury to the
Finland.
This official announcement was au-
thorized:
THE navy department has received
dispatches stating that the transport
Finland was torpedoed while return
ing from foreign waters. The damage
to the ship was slight and she re-
turned to port under her own steam.
The Finland was under escort but no
sign of torpedo or the submarine
was seem"
The Finland is one Of the largest
steamers flying the American Flag.
Before going into the army transport
service she piled between New York
