that is in them. The success OF these principles will be
worth having striven for.
And out of the war will come other results. infuenc-
ing the development OF national and Individual charac-
ter. The world has been wasteful. The war has Inn
posed economies on the people. In many cases these
economies are excessive. But through the war we are
learning something of the needlessness and the iniquity
of waste. That's is a great lesson, and 1t is one whose
results will remain with us after the war as a perna-
nent addition to the constructive things OF life.
The tendencies Of tho age especially in America,
have been toward the exaggeration of freedom in per-
sonal conduct. We have scorned discipline. Our youth
have not learned to obey. Respect for authority Of any
kind has waned. The war is teaching US that there
must be authority; there must be respect for it; there
must be discipline and obedience. That is a lesson of
which we have been sadly in need. The war is teaching
it to uH. And the lessons which are being learned today
will not be forgotten readily.
These are Illustrations of a great number Of bene-
fetal results which will be left to us when the war is
over. They are the products of the war in that without
the war we should have continued to lack them. It is
unfortunate that we have not been wise enough to learn
these lessons without the painful experiences through
which we are passing. But we are SO constituted that
experience is necessary to our development, and perhaps
those who follow us, and who are able to see the events
of today in their proper perspective, will conclude that
after all the fruits Of the great war were worth all that
they cost. S

A FINE OPPORTUNITY

The bill to restrict trading with the enemy con-
tains a clause intended to prohibit the publication in
any periodical in the German language Of articles COM
menting on the war or having a bearing on 1t, unless
there accompanies such article a translation in English.
1t has been suggested that this provision is too narrow,
and that for the period of the war the same prohibition
should apply to the publication Of articles in any foreign
language.
There is logic in the objection. The English Ian
guage is the language of the country. Advantage has
been taken Of the unfaniliarity Of most of our native
population with foreign languages to carry on seditious
work through the medium Of foreign language papers.
Not all such papers are published in the German Ian
guage, although most Of them are. The foreign Ian
guage paper circulates with what may be considered a
measure of secrecy. Statements and arguments which
it presents do not come to the attention of the general
public except in rare cases. In the city Of Cincinnati
the circulation Of English translations of Objectionable
German articles quickly resulted in a marked modifca-
ton in the tone of certain Of the German papers of that
city. A similar effect would be noted throughout the
country where papers published in foreign languages
have taken a disloyal stand.
However, other languages than German are not
likely to be included in the legal prohibition. This
places before the publishers of loyal foreign language
papers a fine opportunity to set a good example, and
to smoke out the few offenders by the voluntary publica-
ton in their columns of English translations. of articles
Of a political or military nature. Surely the slight ,ad-
ditional labor involved would be well invested in a val
liable public service.

THE COWARD,S ACT

Quite often one hears of a case in which after strik-
ing a pedestrian or causing other damage, the driver of
an auto, instead Of stopping and aiding the injured or
ascertaining what damage has been done, puts on all speed
and scorches out of sight. hoping, of course. that he will
not be identified and held responsible for the damage he
has wrought.
Injuries are caused accidentally, from causes which
ordinary prudence and forethought could not guard
against. They are caused sometimes by rank carelessness,
and in that case the person responsible is to be censured
for his failure properly to guard the safety Of others. But
while recklessness may be reprehensible, the person guilty
Of it may be a pretty good citizen, nevertheless.
But the man who is a party to an accident, and then
hurries away without waiting to see what damage has
been done, and whether or not he can be of any assist
ance, is. SO far removed from what we are accustomed to
consider when we think of manhood that we can scarcely
consider him human. For the reckless man, who, through
his carelessness has injured another, but who stays on the
job until everything that is possible has been done, to
remedy matters and who makes himself known SO thai
If 1t becomes necessary he can be reached and brought
to an accounting,-for that man one must have respect
He may be an unsafe person to be at the steering wneel
of an auto. But at any rate he is a man. But the fellow
who runs away, who is too cowardly to face the conse-
quences of his acts, and who is so callous as to leave the
injured to the chance care of passers-by, that man is too
low for any other feeling than utter contempt. And still
there are quite a number of them. ~

If YOU faIter. Mr.. President, and do not suppress
these pro-German activities, regardless. of the number OF
spies and other German agents who may have to pay
the just penalty Of their crimes, you will be responsible
before God and man for the death of many times es
many American soldiers. E88
I would not add one iota to the burden YOU are bear
ing; T would not seek toslessen the appreciation OF this
country Of the magnificent work you have done; but fol
the boy who has left me at your call, and the millions
of boys who will leave their loved ones, I plead with you
that nothing shall be left undone to lessen the dangers
which they face.
And you and 1 know, Mr.. President, that these dam
gers will be Increased many-fold If pro-Germans. working
for Germany and against this country, are allowed ito
roam the land unhampered in all their vicious ACTIVITIES
And you know and I know that however true and
good. however loyal and patriotic may be some Of the
people OF German descent living in this country, there
are SO many that their number must be millions, VINO
quietly sometimes, and openly at other times, are doing
their utmost to bring about the downfall of this country
and the success Of Germany. Everywhere, on trains, y
factories, through the press and in other ways these
people are seeking to SOW the seeds of dlscord Tor the
benefit Of Germany. @ 5#b@.
The facts are too plain to be ignored. You know
them full we'll, and every other honest-hearted Ameri-
can knows them, and is constantly running against them
@ Unless the government suppresses this element WIN
a strong hand, and with unbending determination, unin-
fuenced by aught else than the welfare Of the nation
and the safety of the lives Of its soldiers, there will come
a time when bitter, undying resentment and hatred
against every Ge~rman-Anerican will fill the hearts OF
American people.
And then the people, through mob spirit, in which
the innocent as well as the guilty will suffer, will break
loose and wreak vengeance and do the things which the
government should in its official capacity have done from
