To get his conscription bill thru
Congress it is remarkable that the
President was obliged to 60 to q
Republican to lead his forces, the
Democratic Speaker. the Democrat
ic floor leader and the Democratic
chairman Of the Military Affairs
committee being against the Dill.
But the more remarkable thing Is
that the man chosen was Congress
man Kahn of California. The New
York World says OF him. The fear
tire Of the House was the speech
Of Julius Kahn OF California in fav-
or OF the draft bill. Mr.. Kahn spoke
for the administration. The facts
that he is native Of Germany and
has always been loyal Republican
made his position stronger and
more interesting" There is certain
poetic appropriateness that the ad'
minisration. in going back on the
American volunteer and over to the
Prussian conscript system, should
have discovered the ideal leader In
Congress in native OF Germany.

Proper Food for weak Stomsehs.


The proper fOd for one man may
be all wrong for another. Every
one should adopt diet suited to
his age and occupation. Those
who have weak stomachs need to
be especially careful and should
eat slowly and masticate their food
thoroughly. 1t is also important
that they keep their bowels regu-
lar. When they become constipated
or when they feel dull and stupid
after eating, they should take

DON'T GET xxc1rED

II you read in this paper, or II
some trusted friend tells you from
absolutely reliable sources Of infor-
nation" that England and France
will be starved out within three
months, that Germany viii annex
Russia and invade the United
States before next Christmas, don't
get excited. Maybe it isn't so. and
if it is so, all the worrying you can
do will not help matters the least
little bii.
Remember that for every person
who circulates rumors In ordinary
times, there are dozen who de
light in spreading sensations in
times like this. Remember also that
for every reason for spreading false
reports in ordinary conditions
there are many who have some ul-
terror purpose stirring UP public
excitement in war times. Some OF
them are traitorously disposed to
make trouble among American citi-
zens; some have sinister partisan
political purpose; some are play
ing an underhand financial game
of one kind or another; some arc
mere busybOdies who talk the more
the less they know.
The greatest statesmen OF Ameri-
ca, Great Britain, France, Italy, Rus
sia and Japan, and Of many minor
nations are giving their best
thought to the problems Of this
war. The scientists, the flnanciers,
the students, the business men, the
leaders OF every kind of human ef-
fort are working together harmon.
iously for single purpose. No
such organization, backed by the
resources of six great nations and
many Others, was ever known in
the worlds history. If those lead
ers cannot find the pathway OF sue.
cess, it is not likely that men OF
smaller knowledge and smaller
powers will be able to find it.
The important thing for the
American citizen these days in not
to worry about the mistakes of the
grand council Of national defence,
but to consider what he can do to
help the government, and then to
do 1t. ya.
