the Hoover plan of government buy

20 to 80 per cent on a wide variety of
articles of diet, and that after few
months there may come further re-
ductions as the food administration
gets courage to cut out the rest of the
graft. If Hoover is not given genuine

Council Passes Ordinance to this Eff
feet and Receives Approval of
Mayor Robert w. Speer.

At the municipal election held in
May, charter amendments were adopt
ed by vote of the people raising the
pay of city firemen, policemen, labor
ers and teamsters employed in the
park and street departments. Monday
night at a regular meeting of the city
council, an ordinance was passed Civ
ing an increase of Is per cent to all
other city employees receiving less than
81 500 per annum, effective July 1.
By a unanimous vote, Councilman
Andrew Horan being absent, the coun-
ell passed on first reading a bill intro
duced by Councilman J. A. Burnett
authorizing the department heads to
grant the increases.
The reason assigned by Councilman
Burnett in introducing the bill was the
increasing cost of living. The report
of the committee on finance was unani-
nous in favor of the passage of the
ordinance.

More U-Boat Scares.

1t is indeed a hectic imagination
which conjures up a German subma-
rine in the waters which the May
flower has been sailing for the past
six days with the President of the
United States on board-a truly New
York imagination!
Perhaps it will do these romanticists
a good turn to tell them that the
trip on the New England coast. and
that, even IL the dread U-boat had
put in an appearance, it would not
have had much of a chance OF linking
the yacht in question. But it was
entirely natural that a new G-boat
scare should come at the same mo-
ment that the President is taking a
cruise OF the coast.
OF course, 1t is entirely possible for
Germany to send a submarine across
the Atlantic 1t may be that some
romantic ASS in the German ad-
miralty-some strategist who wants to
terrorize the United States with tor
pedoes. just as his fellows in the Ger
man aviation service has been terroriz-
ing London with Zeppelins-has con-
ceived the idea of sending one of the
new supersubmarines across the At
lantic on a shipping raid. But the
chances of such grotestque strategy
being followed are slight indeed. Ger
many is devoting her last ounce OF
submarine strength TO the destruction
of shipping, and not to spectacular
forays Of no practical value. She has
created a war zone Off the British
Isles and on France. and finds that
zone entirely large enough for her
U-boat activities.
The British steamer which reported
an S o s. call. apparently from a
vessel being shelled by a submarine,
probably is the victim Of some wire
less mistake. The fact that an Amer
ican tank steamer brought in the same
report does not heighten the plausi-
bility of the submarine story. but it
indicates that some fool wireless op-
orator is going to find himself In the
tolls Of the law one of these days.
1t should not be forgotten that the
U. S. S. Destroyer Smith sighted a
German submarine of the New Jersey
coast not so many months ago; in

The Navy Department has issued a
call for additional radio operators for
the Naval Communication Service.
Qualified radio and telegraph opera
tors, either professional or amateur,
and men who have a knowledge of
electricity which would enable them
to qualify quickly, are particularly
wanted at this time. Applicants for
the radio service may enlist in the

the war. Promising seamen and ap-
prentice seamen are given an oppor-
tunity to become operators.
The regular navy accepts enlistments
under two ratings, landsman for cleo
trician (radio) and electrician, third
class (radio). For the former rating
the recruit must be able to receive
twenty-five words a minute in the

electrician Cradio); electricians. third
class (radio); electricians, second-class
(radio); electricians, first-class (radio),

ratings according to their experience
as commercial radio operators on mer-
chant vessels, and other qualifications
Enlistments in the navy or enroll
ments in the Naval Reserve for radio
operators will be accepted at any navy
recruiting station. The monthly rate
of pay for the radio men ranges, on
the present war basis, from $S26o Tor

Gasps Of horror at the scenes OF

ment at feats Of warplanes in lofty
cloud battles over the European

marvellous war picture, War As II

Under the wise leadership OF SAM

made a magnificent war record. 1t
has enemies within and enemies with
out who are seeking to tarnish that
record There Is a move on foot to
derose Gompers; It seems to emanate
from Teutonic sources within the
ranks of labor itself; 1t has not made
much headway yet. but 1t has a be-
ginning. Mr.. Gompers is being as
sailed as an English agent. a man who
is subordinating the interests Of labor
in the war. who has lost sight Of the
main aims and objects of labor organ
ization. Money is being spent in huge
quantities to poison the American
Federation. The vicious campaign
might just as well be stamped out at
its start.
The new revenue bill Is bound to be
a fertile field for dissension and dis
affection among laboring men. In
some way the impression has gotten
out that the taxes on large incomes
are not heavy enough. as fixed by the
Senate bill. The fact is that the ex-
tremists who advocated the "conscrip-
ton of wealth" on a semi-Socialistic
basis knew they were advocating an
impracticality, but were laying the
groundwork for a propaganda among
the workers to the effect that wealth
was shirking its proper burden in the
war.
We Go not think this charge can be
accepted by anyone who makes an in
vestigation of the facts. The income
tax is large enough. in all reason. If
it were larger. it might have had a
retarding effect on business in general.
as many economists assert
At any rate. whether the tax is too
large or too small is a matter which
events will determine. The main point
is that labor ought not to be deceived
by any parrot-cry that capital-con-
trolled Congress is trying to double

of the war burden.

"War As II Really Is"

Reading in cold type Of battles In
the air, of tanks, gas bombs, flying
hand grenades and all other imple-
ments of modern warfare, while 1t
has almost been burned into our
minds as reality, there are still mo-
ments when we wonder as to its gen.
uineness.
America has not yet seen the real
article of warfare as it is staged in
this day. 1t is an education that
may be waiting for US right around
the corner. but at present we must
gather from news dispatches and pic
lures whatever ideas we may have OF
war.
And speaking of pictures, Washing
ton is having an opportunity during
the current week of seeing the filmed
product of actual scenes from the
European conflict.
War AS 1t Really Is" proves to be
a happy title for the current attrac-
ton at the Casino Theater. There is
no evidence in the pictures of movie
directorship. nor of dramatic ensem-
bles, but actual happenings of the
battlefield are shown in startling
reality. We are told that the films
were made by Capt Donald c.
Thompson while under fire, and it is
hard to tell which is the most re-
markable, the courage of the
photographer or the finished product
of his camera
Capt. Thompson has brought to this
country in vivid reality a history
lesson of this great war that will be
missing from the school textbooks
when our children study of the con-
flict in the future.

entail New York bank has been. so
far as any one knows. faithless to the
trust imposed upon him. until this
revelation OF Martindale's thefts.
There have been some embezzlements
or defalcations by minor officers. book
keepers. note tellers. but no officer
has been implicated for nearly thirty
years in actual theft of funds.
This dishonor Is spoken of as a
great calamity. partly because it is
the first smirch upon one of the old
est, one of the strongest and one of
the most trusted of New York banks.
The Chemical National Bank has al
ways maintained high prestige not
withstanding the fact that other na-
tional banks began to pass it some
years ago in the amount of deposits
and resources. There was a time
when the Chemical stood first in this
respect and its stoc commanded
the highest market price for any
bank in the United States, except
ing one.
The bank was always managed
with conspicuous conservatism. In
the many years of the service under
George C. Williams as president. it
seemed to be the wish OF the man.
agement that the institution should
gain higher prestige for spotless d.
rection than for pecuniary success.
Many Of the directors were so eau
tious that they leaned backwards.
The bank resisted for many years
the temptation to increase its capital
stock and not until a few months
ago did 1t begin to pay interest on
deposits. Mr.. williams and his pre-
decessor. as well as President Por-
ter. his successor, now partner of
the house of J. p. Morgan e Co.,
were always persuaded that the bank
should be of such reputation as
could be compared with Caesars
wife. above any reproach.
This method of managing the bank
! was one OF the chief reasons why
so many persons of great wealth be-
came its customers and It was al
ways a favorite place for depositing
trust funds. At the time of the silver
panic of 1877 one man of great wealth
actually deposited 100000 in gold in
the vaults of the bank, seeking no
interest, looking upon it as a sort of
safe deposit to be utilized in case the
country lapsed to the exclusive silver
standard. He felt absolutely secure,
believing that the bank officers would
make no improper use Of the deposit
After his death the gold was removed
by the executors of his estate who
found that the canvas bags in which
1t had been placed had been so long
on deposit that they had begun to
rot. For these reason all the mem
bers of the Clearing House association
regard the discovery of President Mar
tindale's dishonor as rejecting one
of the greatest calamities of New
York banking life for many years.
