homer at the annual dinner OF the
New York alumni of Brown uni

considering Germany's challenge to

plan of fighting and the prospect Of q
break between America and Germany.
Mr.. Hughes speech brought the peo-

I'VE are all Americans tonight,
standing behind our president, on
whom this great responsibility rests"
said Mr.. Hughes. 'Tt is not time to

WHERE THE BURDEN WILL FALL

A notable field of discussion, paraleling
the the main topic of war is the conser-
walton of child energy and child life, the
thought behind the agitation being that
in the hurry burly of the day, the children,
the parents of the future, may be neglected.
And it is point we'll taken.
In any conflict, notably one Of such gil
gantic proportions as the present world
war, the weak suffer most. And children,
in the very nature of the case, are not only
weak but helpless.
1t was this motive of child protection
that undoubtedly prompted the War De-
partment, through Provost Marshal Crow
der, to guarantee, in the new draft regu-
lations, the exemption of men with deHen-
dent children. Married men are placed SO
far down the list of classes that the chance
for their being called is very sim indeed,
and will not occur until verify the country
is in the last ditch.
Over in England the government has
instituted bread subsidy, guaranteeing to
the poor bread at nominal cost And if
the cost Of living mounts much more over
here, some such plan may be adopted. For
it is obvious, if some provision is not made
for feeding the poor at prices within the
range Of their lean income, the children Of
those poor will be given fatal handicap in
and not they individually will suffer but
the nation will suffer-
