submarine warfare.
We saw Germany preciptating this world war,
in which she has used poison and fire as a part
of her official policy at moment when in the
opinion of her leaders she judged the rest of the
world to be unready to defend itself against an
attack for which Germany had been preparing
for 40 years.
The plain catalogue of facts makes it plain
why America is fighting to defend itself and democ-
racy We have entered the primarily IN self
defense. To have done anything less would have
been to surrender our sovereignty and to have
waited passvely until the German program had
been so far carried out and the truly modern
tons of Europe weakened that in our
unpreparedness would have been forced to fight
a rapacious, constituencies military autocracy.
whose ends in avowedy indemnities, ag-
grandzement, and the control of the world. Our
alignment inevitably with and for democracy.
An epoch of civilization hangs in the balance.
Not to have co-operated with world that is en-
deavOring to protect itself and it's future from
Germany with its militaristic autocracy, It's ter
rorsm, and its disregard of international law,
that nObest product of civilization, would have
been bid for suicide
We do not fight for ACKNOWLEDGMENT or indem-
nifty, or the forcible imposition of institutions
upon any country; fight for self-protectiOn.
We do not fight to further British ambitions
French schemes of colonization We are fighting
for the institutions which with varying degrees
have spread from America all over the world ex-
cept Germany, Austria Hungary, Turkey and
Bulgaria.
Our success will make it possible, believe,
not only for our children and our children's chiL
dren to enjoy peace, but for German liberalism
to master the forces which for nearly century
have been its oppressor.
The American Revolution preserved in America
and in England the liberty that goes with indie
pendence. Our Civil assured the future of
democratic institutions in our united n0tiOn. The
present war is not born of our independence, but
of our interdependence among those nations who
have dedicated themselves to the task of seeing
that government of the people, by the people, and
for the people shall not perish from the earth
to 1000 eggs day of II hours. Owing to the fac
tory paying higher wages than other similar plants
and working only six days week instead of seven
which is the rule Of the cotton mills and silk fila
lures of Shanghai it can pick and choose in its
labor, that the type of girl employed in the egg
breaking is far above the standard of any
other Chinese factory and composite picture of
them all probably would come nearer the Chinese
idea of feminine beauty than any other 100 girls
that be found in Shanghai.
AS the workers enter in the morning they are
dressed in freshly steriized clothing furnished by
the factory, and after their nails are manicured
they are allowed to proceed to the workroom.
The breaking room is solid concrete and is
sterilized each day carefully as the operating
room of q hospital The girls are seated on metal
stools at low zinc tables. Before each of them is
curious appliance which mechanically separates
the white of the egg from the yok The girl takes
an egg from the can, into which they have been
counted by the candlers and with the right hand
cracks it on the bar of the separating machine
The breaking is then finished by dexterous move
ment Of the fingers, which permits the egg to drop
into shallow cup where the yolk is caught and
the white allowed to drain off the sides.
The drying room is described as embodying all
the latest features in the sanitary handling of this
product. The air used in the drying process is
thoroughly filtered, being forced through the dry
ing apparatus under heavy steam pressure The
egg yolks or whites out of the dryer in flakes
which are allowed to cool to a temperature slightly
above the freezing point. Then the product goes
to the packing room, where it is placed in boxes
lined with waxed paper which are stenciled and
made ready for shipment
For the freezing of eggs the separation and
strainng are carried out just as for the manufac-
ture of dry yolks only after the straning the large
cans are taken TO the freezing chambers Here
the temperature is kept close to Zero Fahrenheit
and the separate whites and yolks are poured into
cans standing on racks that line the walls of the
freezing chamber.
