The Woman Weeps
BY Or. FRANK CRANE
70 Copyright. 1915. BY Frank Crans)

Ii was reported that when her name
was first called in the national assembly
Miss Jeanette Rankin, the first woman
to hold seat in the council Of the ma

ton of declaring war upon Germany.
| understand her vote. If she wept
honor her tears.
| would have voted yes. am in favor
of this war. / think we are entirely
justified in entering at this time and in
the worthy and dignided way indicated
by the President. into the huge strug-
gle ITO make the world safe for democ-
racies.
But
l should be sorry il the people of this
country could not see the peculiar sig.
nificance Of the first woman delegate reg
isterIng her vote against war.
Important as it is that we defend our
rights, 1t is even more necessary that
some protest should be made against the
Internal stupidity and wickedness of the
nations for, 90 conducting their affairs
as TO make war possible.
With a little intelligent cooperation
they might have reduced their arma-
ments so that no vainglorious dynasty
could have dreamed of the glory of con-
quest.
If they had been less heedful Of the
promptings of national egotism and mors
concerned in the welfare of the people
they would have devised some interna-
tional council backed by sufficient force
to hold the fretful world in awe.
Because we did not do this we are now
paying the dread penalty. Germany is
most 10 blame. because her sin Is AFRO
giant and forthputting. But all the rest
of us are TO blame for our almost equal
sin of omission, in that we did not see
into what horrible pit lack of world
concert would lead US
Therefore let the woman weep. Let
America weep as she draws her justi-
fable sword. weep that mankind still
knows no way bat the beast way Of
slaughter to arrange her governments,

must be torn in red death to pay for
the error Of fatuous, medieval minded
politics.
We would prosecute this war in a
worthier spirit if, while it lasts, women
would wear only black. if no social gath
ering we're held for amusement merely.
if We refrained from feasting and laugh
ter. if every church Of the outraged
Christ were hung in mourning.
This war is just and unavoidable But
no Judge laughs while he sentences a
criminal TO death, no man can escape
feeling Of revulsion when ne is compelled
to shoot a burglar. no mother enjoys it
when she is forced to discipline hen
child. and America goes into this con-
nct with a breaking heart, to think that
so many honest, loyal men, both German
and non-German. must be destroyed to
correct the ignorance and folly of their
governors

A Blow At the Auto
Industry Is a Blow At
Detroit and Michigan

Michigan has never failed to do her
duty in any war
Her resources in men and money have
always been at the disposal Of the coun-
try.
In few days thousands Of flags ON
thousands Of sunken graves in our cen-
eteries viii demonstrate a willingness
when the fate Of the union was at stake
thai remains willingness" today when
the struggle is for world democracy and
world peace.
Michigan cannot be charged with any
desire or attempt to shirk It's share Of
the present war burden IN reseftng ac-
ton by congress which would be impos-
ing upon the states willingness" and
discriminating against one Of our prin-
eipal industries by exacting from it more
than its just share of war taxes.
The schedule of war taxation. will ex-
cmpt, up to profits of eight per cent, cor
porations like the meat packers munition
makers, the Standard Oil company, the
Harvester trust, and So on, but from the
automobile industry of Detroit and Mich
igau it intends to demand tax of five
per cent upon the list price of automo-
biles, or gross income.
Detroit automobile manufacturers
whose patriotism is unquestioned say II
cannot be done without Gripping the in
dustry and putting a considerable Of II
out of business.
They claim that this tax, in addition to
other taxation, would, in many instances,
wipe out profits entirely.
We do not understand it to be the aim
of this country while at war to take any
cities in the United States, but, if these
automobile manufacturers are correct IN
their figures and in their fears over the
effect of this five per cent tax, German
artillery with Busy Berthas" lined up
at the city limits, co-6perated with by
German U-boats in Lake Erie, could not
strike Detroit more serious or damag-
ing blow.

The Detroit times., 1917-05-10

A war successfully prosecuted from
the standpoint of our country's greatest
advantage ought to leave all Of our in
dustries intact-it must be prosecuted so
that we will suffer LEAST at home.
The closing of an automobile factory
would throw the workers in that factory
out Of work.
1t cannot be argued that they could go
to war. unless those who might advance
that argument are willing to assume a
position Numerically opposed to the
theory of selective conscription.
The idea of selective CONSUMPTION is
not to enlist men in punches, indiscrlmi-
nately and it should not be the purpose
of the government to throw men out OF
employment in punches, indiscrimi-
nately, when it is the scheme that the
country will be best helped by certain
men remaining at home in needful and
sustaining service.
The government seeks to provide IN Sc
lective conscription against paralyzng
the industries.
An automobile tax of five per cent on
profits is, therefore. inconsistent with
that purpose.
That's the position Of the automobile
manufacturers and it appears to be a po-
sition taken upon very solid ground
Michigan's Representatives in congress
are playing lone hand against a solid
front presented by the other state
They have been unable to secure as
yet even the very slight conce. sion ~ an
extra half hour added to measy half
hour that has been allotted the automo-
bile makers for a hearing in Washing
ton.
The idea of the congressman from the
other states seems TO be that the more
Michigan contributes toward the war the
less their states will have to contribute.
And it seems to be their further idea
that the automobile is luxury that the
people of the country might better do
without while VIC are at war
The automobile is one Of the reasons

GIRLS EXCEL IN SPELLING
Boys Take Second Place In Schools
Where Competitive Examinations
Have Been Held.

Complete tabulated returns Of the
statewide spelling contests in which
State Commissioner Finley was SO
much Interested show that in the TO-
800 schools where bees" were held,
the girls showed generally the great
er proficiency In spelling, and that OF
the silver medals awarded to county
champions only 30 per cent go to boys.
The original plan was to give each of
these county winners Il free trip to the
state fair mt Syracuse, but the infantile
paralysis scare interfered.
Why girls are better spoilers than
boys might make good subject for a
monograph. 1t is pretty commonly
accepted theory that II good speller is
born, not made. Which means, perhaps,
that visual memory Is an inherited
faculty, capable, it may be, of develop
nlent, but only within limit fixed by
the brain of the pupil. Logic helps very
little, almost nope Mt all, till after
study of Greek and Latin and French
has forced attention on the origin of
words. The boy or girl or man or
woman who most rarely mls-spells n
word Is fortunate rather than admir-
able, The memory visualizes tho print
ed form which rending has made IA
miliar. And this was the secret OF
the way our granGmothers and grand
fathers got n mastery over the old blue
spelling book. Doubtless the pre-Froe-
bel webster" book, like all other
books used for the purpose, helped Wis.,
ualisstSion by concentrating attention.
We are inclined to believe that the
average school girl reads more than
the average schoal boy. After school
the boys interests are outside inter-
ests. lie is fishing or skating or play
ing ball. We would not have him 9TH
erwise for nll the spelling in the world
After al, the learning of things Is bet
ter than the learning of symbols, and
words arc nothing but symbols. They
aid in writing and In speaking, But in
the eGacation that leads up to doing
things ONE hour In mathematics or
chemistry is worth more than hun
dred hours of spelling,-Brooklyn
