'ARMING Of

IS Big DRAIN
10000 Gunners and 5000
Guns the Quota For
y 1000 Ships.

Warrington, Feb. 23.-In view of
the appeals being made to the gov
ernment by shipping interests for guns
to protect their vessels against sub
marines, interest is being manifested
here in the views of Admiral Sir
Cyprian Bridge Of the British navy,
which were recently made known in
England.
TT would be of no use to put guns
on board q vessel If one did not put
on board her ammunition also and
men sufficiently trained to work the
guns with efficiency" says the ad-
miral. 'If we take only 1000 ships
and give them each only two guns,
the number Of guns needed would pc
5000. plus the number that must be
ready in reserve to make up for nee
essary requirements. If we allow only
nifty rounds of ammunition per gun
by no means a generous allowance
In these days of ck-firers-we
should require 100000 rounds. plus
the quantity to be In reserve ready
to replenish expenditure for practice
or battle. Two sufficiently trained
men per gun would be the smallest
employ. Frequently one man might
be incapacitated by illness or acci-
dent. We should then. have to pro-
vide $4,000 trained gunners. All this
would be necessary If we were only
to put two guns on each vessel.
r. III the recent demand to increase
the number of vessels guns from
two to four be granted-and an in
crease from one to two has been de-
manded-the figures given above
would have to be doubled. and we
should have to provide. over and
above the necessary reserves. 5000
guns and $4,000 men sufficiently
trained to work them with effect.
T. 1.-The demand for arning our mer-
chant vessels against hostile subma.
rines does not seem to take note OF
the important fact that British car
goes are often carried in neutral bot
toms. In none of our wars have we
ever been able to dispense with this

Oklahoma Court Holds Blue La,us of
That State to be Unconstitutional
jamestown, N. D.

jamestown, N. ID.
To the Editor:
In view Of the present agitation re-
garding the enforcement Of the Sun
day blue laws" In North Dakota. in
terest will be taken in the decision OF
the supreme court of the state of
Oklahoma on this subject. In the
case of g. j. Krieger ct al. v. the
State of Oklahoma, the decision OF
the Blaine county court was reversed.
This court had condemned G. j.
Krieger and his son. who are Sab
batarians, because they conducted a
general mercantile business at Hitch
cock. Oklahoma. and exposed their
merchandise for sale on Sunday.
The supreme court of Oklahoma
guarantees religious liberty to Its
citizens. This is in line with tho
plans Of the founders Of this nation.
1t was their hope that the United
States might indeed be a nation which
should give to each individual the
right to worship as thev saw fit, or
to refrain from religious services if
Grand Forks herald., 1917-02-23

such was their desire.
It has long been conceded that the
enforcement of an arbitrary rest day
was contrary to the spirit of the con-
stitution. and though q number of at
tempts have been made to have con-
gress enact Sunday laws. these have
been of no avail, leading statesmen
taking the position that Sunday Is q
religious holiday, and that the civil
government has nothing to do with
its observance. Nor can the govern
ment in reason compel the individual
to observe any particular rest day.
This would be infringing upon the
right of the individual, and that
would be clearly an un-American
proceeding. The doors Of this nation
have ever been open to the immt-
grant of any nation. and to persons
of all religious beliefs. Shall not the
people Of North Dakota place them
selves on record as standing squarely
on the platform of equal rights for
all?
