War Evolves New Kind Of Government
Industry and Labor Represented in Washington

wonderful speed->and because all of
its parts are organizing and aiming
at a harmonious adjustment of the
working relation of the parts with
each other and the whole.
And war is responsible for it. l
doubt whether any man had the whole
vision, unless it was President Will
son himself. Anyhow, it started with
the creation of the council of national
defense and its advisory committee.
The genius of the greatest men in
all of the various industries and inter.
ests was gradually modified to help
prosecute the war. Industries that
once had to buy representation in gov
eminent were invited to accept rep
resentation in government during the
prosecution of the war.
The result is that we have now-at
least for war purpOseS-a central gov
eminent made up of the representa-
tives of the states of Steel, Railroads.
Coal, Food, Metals, Oil, Shipping
WOOL, Cotton, Electricity, Finance
Manufacturing, Merchandising, Econ
omy, Health, Publicity and Labor
doubtless others.
And because OF war necessity, the
political government has called into
being a new state and is demanding
what the law prohibits-the complete
organization and mobilization of all
the vital forces of our industrial life
Congress has passed no law enlarg
ing the presidents cabinet. There is
no necessity for making new cab
net, with representatives OF all poll
teal parties in it-who, for the most
part, probably, would be lawyers. The
president has created a new cabinet

FRESH FROM front,
SEES GUARD DRILL

The Bismarck Home Guard on
Tuesday evening had the privilege OF
drilling before Lieut. S. G. Mason OF
Buffalo n D., who for the last six
months has commanded an American
ambulance section of 46 men and 20
cars on the Verdun sector Of the
French front. Lieut.. Mason left the
University of Minnesota, where he
was student, and enlisted in the
American ambulance service in
France when the United States de-
clared war on Germany. He was
there when hell was popping right
and left" but he brought his section
through six months with the loss Of
but one man killed and five wounded.
"The trouble" said Lieut.. Mason
last night was the shell-fire. You
can't do much racing when you have
an ambulance filed with wounded. One
must drive carefully and take his
medicine"
Lieut.. Mason has procured his re-
lease from the ambulance service
and has made application for an adj
mission in the American army. He
is anxious to get back. The French
people, he declares, are confident of
an ultimate victory, but are prepared
to courageously face long continued
struggle if Needle.
The man from Verdun is here as a
guest Of Warden r. S. Talcott and
family, friends and neighbors of many
years standing at Buffalo. Other
military men who attended the home
guard drill in the basement of the
Masonic temple last evening were
Lieut.. Porter Talcott, who has been
assigned to the 18th artillery at Fort
SILL and Lieut.. Addison Falconer of
the infantry arm, the former recent
graduate OF Fort Smelling, and the
latter from the training camp at
Fortress Monroe. Each took charge
of squad and in very few minutes
showed the splendid results OF three
months intensive training.

The Masonic temple had decidedly
militaristic tinge Tuesday evening,
