ing, deepening conviction about some
other things. The more one thinks
it over, the more intolerable it seems
that any citizen of the United States
or firm or corporation should make
any money on account of the war.
1t seems to the average citizen, who
maybe has a boy who will be called
on within a few weeks or months to
90 to the trenches and perhaps die
there, that no man, firm or corpora
ton should be permitted TO reap IL
nancial profit out of his and his boys
sacrifice. If this boy must be called
on to offer his life TO his country 1t
is little enough if the capitalist gives
to the country every dollar of proit
that comes to him by reason Of the
war. 1t is not sufficient that this
capitalist give up 40 or so or rs per
cent Of his profits derived from war
brought business. He ought, in COM
mon justice, to give it all and be glad
to do it. At that he is not making
sacrifice equal to that made by the
boy or his parents. In fact, If he
was making a fair profit out Of his
business before the war began and is
asked to give up only the extra profits
that come to him by reason Of the
war he has really sacrificed nothing

In country church, not long since,
a little child was brought forward for
baptism. The young minister, tax
ing the little one in his arms, spoke
as follows: Beloved hearers, no one
can foretell the furture of this little
child. He may grow up to be great
astronomer, like Sir Isaac Newton, or
a great general like Grant, and it is
possible he might become president of
the United States" Turning to the
mother, he inquired, "What is the
name of the child" MARY Ann" was
the reply.

Japan No Shipyard Rival
Official Says 1t Cannot Com
pete with United States

Washington, April l7.-Japanesc
shipbuilders cannot hope TO offer seri-
Gus competition to the United States
so LONG as Nippon builders are de-
pendent upon this country for bo'h
raw materials and finished steel. ac'
cording to n recent statement oil
head of the japanese De-
partment of Communications. The
statement reads, in part:
at is not reasonable for any other
nation to see menace in the progress
of japanese shipbuilding. for the rea-
son that the industry here IS con-
fronted with weakness which cannot
easily be remeded. The japanese
shipbuilders themselves have no con-
fdent outlook on the future.
Japanese shipbuilders here haze
many points in their favor. II is true.
Their workmen are not so efficient as
the workers in the West. but labor
costs less The big drawback, how
ever. is their utter dependence upon
foreign countries for raw materials
The annual supply Of steel or iron
materials does not rise above 10000
tons, whereas the business wants more
than 100000 tons 4 year Of steel ma
