If a world state is created, it will be
through the initiative of national govern
ments.-Walter Lippman.
IMPROBABLE IDLENEss.

The principle work of the nation is the war,
saws a bulletin from the National City bank, OF
New York This is quite true and in its truth
accepted by the people, is the nations safety.
But because the principle work is to be the
war. there should not be widespread stopping
of present work and period of hesitation by
lot of valuable workers who are in doubt just
what their share in war work is to be. There
is unrest enough, disquietude enough, of the
aimless sort The men who are going to serv
ice under arms are taking the right means Of
getting at war work; the men who making
ready to till the soil are taking the right
means of getting at work; the men in the
industries who are busy at filing making
ready to fill the requirements of the govern
ment are light in their work program. But the
men and women who are wasting valuable time
in looking for task without information
which makes the search productive, and who
have plenty to do in ordinary circumstances
would be better off at work if war were as
vet making no demand upon them. There is
now proposition before the government for
constituting a national service reserve in
which all citizens not available for any reason
for military naval or industrial service under
direct government control can enroll. It is pro-
posed that central committee shall supervise
through state and local subcommittee, putting
such citizens to work at what will really count
and devising whatever of training is needed to
make them efficient for other services later.

This is what is needed 1t would make a
place for all willing workers. In the mean
time idIeness does not help the war bit.
CORN AS rood FOR HUMANS.

Corn is one. of the best OF human foods ano
we raise by far the greatest amount produced
by any nation. But we eat comparatively ut
tie Of it except in the form of prepared cereals
The south is less foolishly prodigal OF this
fine food resource than other sections OF oul
land, for there a hundred years ago people
learned how good corn is when properly
cooked But we have generally fed corn to
animals; nearly four-ffths of our corn crop
goes into feeds.
The slow coming of corn into its own as a
human food is an example of the inertia that
governs the banishing of habit and prejudice.
Corn has been to us fodder Years ago car
rots, parsnips and even tomatoes were rarely
eaten and much of the cabbage went to the
COWS. Slowly we have come to appreciate the
necessity of valuing foods rightly, but in prac-
tice we have far to go before we realize ssensf-
BILE economy. The more general use OF corn
meal in place of wheat flour would be great
economy and healthful habit. We have a
great corn crop and we could easily largely IN
crease it, thus making it's service as both hui
man and animal food possible Here again the
cook is a potent factor. Given widely dis
tributed through the land cooks who can make
corn breads, corn fritters and similar corn ap-
petizers as do the cooks of the south, and the
corn habit will grow to proper proportions.

MAKING PEOPLE GOOD.
Doing SO by Aid of Prohbitory Laws is
Always a Sorry Business,

! Chicago Tribune: The effort to
pass hone dry legislation may perhaps
be taken as typical Of the war atti-
tude that seems to pervade official
Washington. This attitude is much
less concerned with our main business
I-getting men into the fie1d-than with
reforming our moral habits. The re-
formers are using the war as an ex-
cuse to put their ideas into operation.
and their lobby is working overtime to
devise restraints for erring human be-
ings.
To make people good by prohibit
DRY laws is always sorry business.
Blue laws are usually bad because they
make everybody blue. We are likely
to be blue enough before the war is
over without being forced into a
strait laced regimen in the bargain.
We believe that war conditions
make it necessary to impose certain
liquor regulations We think stricter
regulation would be advisable even
in times Of peace. The sale Of whisky
and distilled spirits should be drastic
ally limited, IL not prohibited Prob
ably some restrictions should be plac-
led on the manufacture and sale OF
beer and digit wines. But we believe
1T is a mistake to issue an abrupt fiat:
There shall be no more cakes and
ale"
! If congress passes the law our lati
ltudjarians will find some means OF
iavofding it; the rich will stock up N
iadvance and the poor will resort to
the rotton product Of private stills.
National prohibition means the elimi-
ration Of beer and light wines and the
consumption of distilled liquors. Dis
] lcsd irYrn no ha 20 90
kind Whisky is the best argument
for prohibition. But prohibition is
likely to promote the use Of whisky.
/ War prohibition in Europe has not
extended to drinks of small alcoholic
| content In spite of the food shortage
! the Germans still manufacture beer. If
congress can devise means of pre-
venting the sale and use of distilled
| spirits without interfering with beer
and light wines, 1t will do the country
| a real service. We shall have made
step forward in solving the liquor prob

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

| CEDAR RapluS RepuDllcdu. AASAe
are Indications that Senator Kenyon
intends to make his voice the clarion
voice Of Iowa in congress. We nope
! that he will go ahead and that he
will become the fearless spokesman
| for the patriotic impulses or the
people. Senator Kenyon has 1t IN
| him and the people of Iowa expect
| it of him. He was greatly empar'
raised by the entanglements into
which he fell during the days OF hi-
clustering, In which he had d1scredit
fastened on him that did not In right
belong to him. 1t happened because
in a devisive moment he happened
to be in the wrong company.
Marshalltown Times-R Republican:
The U. S. A. gives the appearance OF
going good and bone dry until after
the war is over. Brewery and dist1l-
lery interests are making mass at
tack on the senate, but predictions
are that they will be repulsed with
great fatalities. Their forces are
disorganized badly. the brewers hav-
ing deserted the red liquor makers
in hope of saving some bacon for
themselves, but general prediction is
that the entire fat is in the fire.
Sioux City journal: The Story
county temperance workers at an
institute held at Ames are reported
to have called for the elimination of
tobacco, pipes, cards and similar
comforts from the kits that are to
be given to American soldiers at the
front through the Red Cross. This
is funny enough without any COM
ment.
Cedar Rapids Gazette: The price
Of matches has been advanced on
account of the war, due to the short
age of sulpher, of course.
Burlington Hawk-Eye: One of the
great dangers through which the
country has passed quite recently
was too much of the wrong kind of
thrift. When the preaching of thrift
began, some people, and some of
these at Washington, began preach
ing the wrong kind of thrift. They
would have brought on a panic in
short order. Thus was something
started that would have caused end
less trouble ana would practically
have crippled the nation. No doubt
the people meant well who made that
wrong start. But they surely started
something. And it kept others very
busy heading off that wrong kind of
thrift and it's spread over the country.
Muscatine Journal: AS long as
American exports continue to expand
the submarine will have. failed of it's
object. With the flood of goods from
the great American store house ex-
banding, it spells failure for the
under sea campaign. The merican
export trade is not only a barometer
of domestic conditions but it records
the ebb and flow Of the tides of war.

GERMANY'S NEW MOVE.

The new move which Germany is making against Russia is by water rather than by land. It has taken some time for it to follow up the sue cess which it gained at Riga, but when it moves it generally prcceeds s with a definite purpose and such can be attributed to the landings which have been effected on the two inn portant islands in the gulf of Riga, a position of much strategic importance for operations in that region.
 Following the fall of Riga 1t was maintained that Germany would net attempt to proceed toward Petrograd at this season because of the oncom- ing winter and the hard country which would have to be negotiated. The let ting up in the operations by the Ger mans and the successes which have attended the Russian activities along that line have borne out that opinion. But now it is indicated that Ger many was scheming in another direc- ton. It will probably not be long before it's full programme will be dis closed
 Germany realizes as well as the rest Of the world the advantage which Is to be gained by proceeding against Russia at time when internal trou- bles are attracting it's attention. It also realizes that whatever it plans to do in the way of an advance upon Petrograd can be carried out with ,reater ease now than it can be months hence after Russia has had he winter in which to reorganize it's army. Thus while Germany is. being kept busy on the western front. it has an excellent opportunity to make use of it's idle fleet and such reserves as 1t can muster to strike blow which will hit a Russian weak spot and at the same time serve to pacify the dissatisfaction at home. Whether Russia can ward off the blow remains to be seen.
Norwich bulletin., 1917-10-15

to bring economy and ef{lciency to the front as never before with good rec suits both to the roads and the coun- try, but even now they are unable to meet requirements in spite of the marked improvement that has been shown There can be no question but what they have entered into the spirit of doing their best under the condi- ,ions with comnhendabie results. What it is costing them, however. is re- f1eeted in their financial condition while the prospect of more labor trou- ble gives them. the opportunity to present their case from new angles.
 Just what is to be asked has not been outlined. That they may be permi-Eed to increase rates to the point where they will be Able to get a profitable return is to be expected, and as in other cases it is to be supposed that they will back up their claims with facts. That Is what any decision by the commission is, or she uld be. based upon.

A NEW NEEDLEcRAFT.

It's really a needlecraft because you use needles, but not the f1ne shin ing steel needles of embroidery or the bone or amber of knitting and ohro- chet, but the long, green needles of the pine trees. the longer the better. One is reminded of Indian basketry as one binds the sweet smelling needles gathered from under pine tree into pliable ropes of many uses. As the needles vary in length, the binding must ebe a continuous process. The thickness of the rope decided upon the needles are laid in bunch until the corset rope thickness is reached, then they are tied with a bright cord or strand of faffia, which winds round and round. and as one needle ends an- other is added The rope may be shaped into basket or mat as ths winding goes on, and the attractive trinket further elaborated with em- brofderings of raff1a after the whole is finished. The continuous rows of rope are held together either by sewing them with the cord or raffia run through a long eyed needle or as each row is wrapped it can include the row just preceding. Wonderful barbaric color effects can be obtained by the choice of eolors with the woodsy green of the pine needles.
