Try, Try Again.

Be not uneasy, discouraged, or put

AN S WE RS |
BY CYNTHIA GREY 5

Dear Miss Grey: "a Read
err asks why the working
class is always asked or
forced to do all the fighting
in time of war, and adds that
this is a war of commercial
ism.
IL "A Reader" had followed
with really sincere attention
the origin, course and con-
duct of this war, he would
have learned that the sons of
the rich and titled families in
England were the first to vol
unteer, and that these we're
to a great extent exterminat-
ed before CONSUMPTION was
adopted. He probably does
not know that in France uni
versal military service OBJ
tains, and that all, rich and
poor, bourgeois and proletar-
ian, fight side by side.
He might have noted that
the young volunteers who
went from America to fight
in the ranks of the British
and French armies and to
serve as ambulance workers,
aviators, ETC., - were at least
largely from what "A Read
er" would probably term the
capitalist class" Many OF
these have fallen (among
them the glorious young
poet, Allan Seegar), for what
they believed to be the cause
of world-freedom.
"Commercialism" is the
very smallest issue in this
particular war. 1t Is purely a
war initiated by the ruling
caste Of Germany to strength
en- its dominance over that
country and to extend the
same throughout the world.
To this end, that ruling caste
has risked and lost German
trade supremacy-so little
was "commercialism" the
consideration.
The preachers, judges, law
yers, ETC., who, according to
"A Reader" ought to be the
first to go to war, are genar-
ally past the age-.imit, but
