Mr.. White on Universal Training

No American should be given the privilege of

defense of his country This is the opinion of William
Allen White, editor of the Emporia Gazette of En-
poria Kansas, and a writer and pubcist rational
renown In a statement given the Universal Mill
tary Training League Mr.. White declares that dem
ocracy is only strong the trained patriotism of
its citizens. His communication and pungent
contribution follows:
I'm a democracy the right should depend
entirely upon the will defend. The will to defend
ones country is important only the will is sup
ported by intelligent training defend Modern life
is organized that every and every may
have important part in national defense
they have in making national opinion. Education and
training for the voter and defender should be uni
versal and compulsory and should except no man
woman, and for reason-the country needs
educated men and women for national defense A

of its citizens. SO. naturally for universal mill

German in Nebraska

The lower house of the legislature of Nebraska
day before yesterday passed "a bill repeating a law
requiring the teaching of German in the public schools
of that state. Perhaps the enactment of law re-
quiring the teaching of any other than Ian
guage in the public schools is a mistake. That is
matter think that ought to be left to the discre
ton Of local school boards There many parts of
the country where advantage would be secured to
the pupils from the study of any other language than
their That is especially in the rural secondary
schools while in other sections of the for
eign languages is close second to English In Ari-
IONA, for instance. the study of Spanish. while not
essential is of great advantage.
with the Spanish speaking people of South and Cen
trail America grows, working knowledge of Spanish
becomes of a desideratum.
However if there why German
should be compulsory thing in the schools of Ne
braska, the reason now is less compelling because Of
the imminence of We assuming that the
repeal act is outburst of Nebraska patriotism
If actually engage in war with Germany the war
will last forever and when it is over whatever
be the result of it, the German language will be
vire and useful Next to the English
it is the most widely disseminated language the
world, and outside of North America and the British
Isles it is probably literally disseminated than
English. A greater number of people in continental
Europe speak it than speak English and that is also
Of the American continent south of the Rio
Grande.

Germans lead into boycott their language

SAFE FOR SOLDIERS,
SAFE FOR CIVILIANS
gen as Well as the Man In Uni
form, From Vice and Booze.

In a final address In the Ohio dry
campaign in Columbus. Captain r. p.
Hobson, speaking to large gathering
in Memorial hall. on Sunday after
noon, made an appeal for the freedom
of American soldiers and civilians
alike from the depredations of booze
and vice.
IT am informed that the law passed
to prohibit American soldiers from
getting liquor in this country is not
preventing our men in France from
getting it," he said.
Captain Hobson declared he had in
formation that of certain numbers OF
Canadian soldiers returned from Eng
land and France, only one in Ave was
suffering from wounds. u heard of
one camp of 1000 men who were sent
to hospitals suffering with vice dis
eases" he asserted.
One Solver Worth Five Drunk
He declared one sober soldier was
worth five who drank. and that an ex-
pertinent to prove this was as follows:
A squad of soldiers fired 100 shots at
target 400 yards distant and made
thirty hits. They were given each 8
litre Of mild beer. waited thirty min
utes and fired again. They made only
four hits in 100 shots. III this is
the case with soldiers. is 1t not fair
to presume that the same applies TO
citizens ?" he asked,
Captain Hohson said ne Ala not be
iieve America should invade and over
throw Germany. He thtnds tho Teu-
tons should be forced back to their
ma TONS boundaries and then told that
America did not want to enter.
Then appoint a commission of neu-
trails who should take an inventors OF
all the damage done by all nations
as far as money could repair" he said
'fWh erever destruction has been done
contrary to The Ea que convention.
then the nations which did the dam
age should pay for It.
Says Enemy Is Strong.
"Of course, Germany would not &C
cept this. but We should put our ca use
on such a plane that the enemy cannot
say we are in n conspiracy to over
throw II from within its own from
tiers he declaa ed.
He warned not 10 disparage the
strength of tho enemy, for he had
known for twenty years that Germany
was dangerous and powerful. Il knew
IL when Germany raised Its flag on o
Venezuelan custom house and only
lowered II when Roosevelt sent su-
perior feet down 70 compel II. But
have never feared our own strength.

II she were alone against Germany.
