The University of Wisconsin, long
known as the greatest progressive
university in the country, is face
to face with fight for free speech,
President Charles r. Van Hise re-
fused to let Max Eastman. famous
Socialist editor of the masses and
speaker, speak in the university
building because he was propa-
gandist. Many of the students Gre
ated a demonstration, and the Chi
cago, Milwaukee and New York
papers carried big stories on the in
cident. A resolution has been pre-
scented in the legislature asking
President Van Hise to explain why
he refused to let Eastman talk, and
yet is allowing William Jennings Bry-
an to speak in the Stock Judging
pavilion, Every university paper in
the east, all the large city papers
and a weekly magazine have carried
editorials and articles about it. My
opinion is that 1t merely is a howl
from the Socialists. Eastman ad-
mitted he did not advertise his
speech as Socialistic because he was
afraid of being refused. Wisconsin
is the only one of the big universities
that has retained it's free speech
democracy, and it looks now like it
will join the other big schools in
regulated speeches.

The World Will Not Be Broke

Said the gentleman at the adjacent desk, who had returned yesterday morning from an inef- fectual search for bacon something less than 70 cents a pound, "The world war is in a fair way to become secondary consideration. The first one with us Americans will soon be the means of living.
 Somebody has said that this would last u.til the world broke A good many people co not know what is meant by the world being troke; they know that when a man is broke his money is all gone But there will be as much money in the world ever the world will never be out of money. The mines turning ont gold every day; the credit of the government s being overworked; there will always be plenty of money in the world. But when the dollar ceases to have any purchasing power then the world will be broke It's mighty near it now, when it takes 7-1O of dollar to buy pound f bacon"
 The gentleman the adjacent desk said further that the problem of the dwindng dollar was more and more engaging American attention which ought to be focused phase another of the world We likely, he said, to lose our interest in, and forget all about what ss happening the western front in Italy and lin Russia if thought of them at all it be only as factors still further complicating the problem.
 The gentleman at the adjacent desk not tto first one to think of this. The government had ( in mind from the beginning that if we were to le effective in the war, it must some how be made the first consideration of the people, and kept the first consideration. In order that that may he done there must be few distractng problems as possible and to that end various measures have been adopted. Among them, the food administrator whose business, many suppose, is merely f that there shall be enough food for ourselves and allies, but that this food may be obtained at as reasonable and at slightly burdensome prices as possible In short the government recog- nized that it it's chief business to keep the world from going broke"
 All this was a gigantic task, but it is being performed and will ultimately be accomplished. But it will take time. It cannot be done in the tyinkling of eye, but it must be done for the war must not be obscured or else it will be perma nenty lost.
 When the food administration and the various other war bodies have settled down squarely to their work proper value of the dollar will be D1aintaned While the dollar, of course will neces- sarily have been shorn of a part of it's purchas- i7s power the dollar will be more nimble; it will be more frequent and easier to get.

What Was Wanted?

A Florence reader with sense of humor com plains to the ad writer of this paper, in which there lately appeared the following:
 WANTED-Boy to milk. 2O2O E. Roosevelt. ak
 The reader observes: Suppose us too querulous? lads are willing to do their bit but don't you think that even MT. Hoover might object to your attempt at economies? Let continue to let bossy have her place of supremacy in this gard. If necessary, buy another COW, but don't resort to the above"
 To this the ad writer replies and states that he had nothing to do with the wants of 2O2O East Roosevelt. He knew nothing about it until his attention called to it by the Florence reader. Ads for this department are written by the ad- yertisers who are supposed to know what they want, and they printed as they are written that is, they supposed be printed as they written Now and then a mistake is made down stairs, usually because the copy is indistinct and vague.
 It would be possible, thinks the ad writer, for the word COW" to be so written as to be mistaken by the printer in these war-like times for boy" But then if it that was wanted at 2O20 East Roosevelt, it hardly necessary to incur the added expense of the two obvious words words were necessary to a clear though surprising explanation. The ad writer says he is at sea- he only founder around in conjecture. We can orly add surmise that what was wanted was a wde-awake boy, a particularly wide-awaBe and forward boy of the kind that is sometimes described fresh youths

outbreak of sentiment which could in wise tribute to the winning of the war.
 But the point we desire to make clear is that the Republican publicity association will not make headway against the Democratic party in this kind of attack. Of course, the Wilson tariff was mistake, but have said it has been unexpectedly nulfed It was not mistake of which Germany was the sole beneficiary. It admitted English made cutlery on the same fav- orable terms, and at the time the mistake made our relations with England and Germany were equally friendly.
 This is time for any party to try to build itself up. The people not at all interested i partisan politics and we think that in the mass they will resent the intrusion of politics.
 It would be a mistake for the Democratic party which is in a position to do so, to attempt to strengthen itself by the war That too would be resented with the result that the country would be divided at hour when it must stand together i it is to survive.

No Time for Politics Now

The Republican Publicity Association asks Shall German scissors cut our Red Cross bandages9" This inquiry is preliminary to an inopportune at tack upon the mistakes of the Democratic tariff policy about which nobody cares now. and which have been entirely nullified by greater disaster It is stated:
 "The republican tariff law gave to scissors and shears protective duty, ranging from 45 per cent for the lower to 67 per cent for the higher grades The democrats put all the grades down to 30 per cent and in the brief ten months between the passage of the bill and the outbreak of the imporatons of these goods increased 30 per cent. The German manufactures employing German workmen at one- third the American workmans wages, was pleased beyond expression. That law is still in force. German competition after the war under such law is certain It is for the women who cut and and the men who forge and draw to decide whether after the war; we will exclaim, Comes the blind Fury with the ab- horred shears It is the republican party and pro- lection, or the democratic party and runous compe- tition. The choice is up to the voter"
 But that is all in the past and for the present we are confronted by many more important matters than the tariff that we can be excused for not worrying about future tariffs There are no German scissors coming into the country now and they would not be coming if there were no duty scissors. Such Made in Germany" cut lery be in the country is all the private hands of good Americans and they may be serviceable for cutting bandages as American CT English made scissors. We using boats

The American army in France will need transporting. Here figures that at least ap- prOxmately correct:
 It is estimated that hundred pounds of freight man each day must be unloaded at the port of de- barkation. Therefore, when the end of two years we have, say, million men in France must load daily 100 million pounds of freight 5O0OO tons
 Three thousand tons be unloaded daily from a good sized ship hence seventeen ships at the wharves each of them unloading 5000 tons will fill the require ments. In the United States seventeen ships must be loading 50,000 tons day. This makes total of thr- ty-four ships at the docks. Taking a basis 900 ton (dead weight ship, that seventeen ships must leave New York every two days and seventeen ships leave French port every days transit with army freight. Assuming ten days the time of passage there would be ITO ships (6000 tons) the way to and from the United States, which added to the thirty -four at the docks will make total of 204 ships, assuming no loss delay.
 With 1 million men there will be approximately 0,000 animals. At fourteen pounas of hay a day, there would be required for six months more than 456 million pounds of hay, which must be imported and also 360 million pounds of Rations will re- quire S15 million pounds.
