BREEDING MEN

How Long Shall Women Continue TO

Breeding Soldiers2
(By Olive Schreiner)

In supplying the men for the car
mage of battlefield women have
merely lost actually more blood, and
gone through more acute anguish
and WEAKNESS, in the months of bear
ing and in the final agony Of child
birth, than has been experienced by
the men who cover it, but in the
months of rearing that follow, the
women of the race go through a
long, patiently endured strain which
no knapsacked soldier on bis longest
march has ever more than equalled;
while, even in the matter of death,
in all civilized societies, the prob
ability that the average woman will
die in childbirth is immeasurably
greater than the probability that the
average male will die in a battle
There is, perhaps, no woman,
whether she have borne children or
be merely potentially a child-bearer,
who could look down upon a battle
field covered with slain, but the
thought would rise in her. $50 many
months of WEAKNESS and pain while
bones and muscles were shaped with

struggle that breath might bel SO

might lie with glazed eyeballs, and

PLUI'OCRAT SENT

Reactionary Tool of Russian Gar and

In spite of the protests made By
the Socialist party and radical labor
unions, Elihu Root has been sent
to Russia to greet the Russian peo-
pie in the name Of the American
people.
With him also goes bunch of
financiers and reactionary labor
leaders who were appointed by Pres

Victor L. Berger was appointed
on the commission but he refused
to serve unless Root was taken
off. Charles Edward Russell was
appointed in his place. Russell's
mania for war makes the commits
sion even worse. 1t might be pos
sible to overlook the appointment of
Russell but Root is the last man in
the world who should have been
sent to Russia on behalf of the
American masses.
Root was sponsor for the Root
amendment, which was designed to
aid the car in hunting down and
hanging Russian revolutionaries, and
to aid Porfirio the Damned in hound

lutionaries in this country; that is,
he did all that an American could
have done; he did what few Ameri-
