the the problem which they consti-
tute may be brought more pronnin-
emily before the Netherlands Parlia-

tween a party of soldiers and an OBJ
Jector. who refused to change his
civilian for his military clothes. In
the end the man sat naked in his cell
for day and a night, and was trans
ferred from one prison to the other
in like condition.
Men who have refused to do mill
tary duty in the Netherlands now
number $50. Some proved not strong
enough physically to endure impris-
onment. The will of others was
broken. and they were induced to
take service Others persisted in
their attitude despite repeated SEN
fences of months Of Imprisonment.

PATRIOTIC MOTIVES"

Congressman Rainey, of Illinois.
says the newspapers should donate
several millions of dollars of space
from patriotic motives, i'll helping to
sell Liberty bonds. A newspaper has
Il commodity to sell +: that is its space ;
shat is its bread and butter. We do
not see any accounts of congressman
who vote billions of dollars for many
purposes each week, giving up their
salaries from patriotic" or any other
motives, thus saving the government
about $4,000,000 a year.
We believe the newspapers should
and will give their loyal support to
the sale of Liberty bonds, whether the
government pays for advertising space
or not, but there is no reason why the
government should single out the com
modify the newspaper has to sell and
ask that it be donated.

ARTILLERY OR CAVALRY

Cavalry has always been the spec
tacular division of every army. For
centuries the thrills of depicted bat
tie. either by word or in painting, has
to do most often with hOrsemen.
Napoleon at the Pyramids meeting
the Mamelukes, Ney at Austerlitz, the
Imperial Guard of DessaiX at Water
loo. Sheridan at Winchester, ZagOnyi
at Springfield, the Light Brigade at
Balaklava-all have given thrills to
the world and the genius of poet and
painter and prose has immOrtalized
these exploits.
But in this war of terror and hOr-
rOrs the cavalry has had little place.
Even the magnificent Bavarian horse
of the Kaiser's army has had nothing
to do since the raid through Belgium
and north France ended with the bat
tie of the Marine.
This is an artillery war-a war OF
