Protecting Our Transports.

The U-boat has given timely warning. II will
be needed Our entire energy will be concentrated
on outwitting the submarine if it proves necessary
The sinking of a transport on its return trip-ser-
Gus and alarming enough in all truths quite differ
ent matter from the sinking of transport the out
going trip, the Uboat captains well know The lat
ter would be tragedy to shock the nation and rouse
its wrath We may be thankful that we have so far
escaped il.
What has happened is all-sufficent to us that
the submarine peril is merely scotched not killed. that
it is combng the for victims, and is concen-
trating on American transports its favorite prey
Our convoy system has been adequate, far, to pro-
troop ships Whether returning transports are as
heavily conveyed as those bound for the is
question which, of course cannot be answered; but if
they are it is clear that the fangs of the Uboat have
not been drawn, and that they still deadly.
When the detailed story is in the hands OF naval
officers new policy relating to submarines must be
framed. We have been plumng ourselves on the sue
cess of our convoy system. Until yesterday, indeed
had proved itself invunerable. But German brains
have been working the problems which it pre-
sented, and have arrived at partial solution.
Perhaps the recent decrease in losses of merchant
shipping has been due to Teutonic concentration the
lanes traversed by transports; and if this
IS the case it is altogether surprising that of
them, homeward bound, torpedoed. The Amer
lean navy cannot expect to find cure" for the sub
marine disease; it can only look for an antidote.

Are You Liberty Loan Stacker?

There have been few if any slackers in England
France, Italy, or Germany.
Those men whom the law makes amenable to mill
tary duty fighting. Those men and women needed
in industry have been busy at the forge, the loom and
the plow. But even more significant has been the
overwhelming answer to the question:
Will you back our cause with your money, well
your work and lives?
None of the countries is as rich as ours Yet each
and ALL friend and foe alike have successfully foated
every loan.
This country has offered only one loan and it was
we'll taken care Of 1t is engaged in the Second
Liberty Loan campaign
The question for every and woman in America
to put to himself
Am / liberty loan Stacker?
Will do less we'll by my beloved country, fighting
for democracy than the German has done for his
country battling impose .Kaiserism upon cviliza-
ton?
1t is the duty of every American to match his dol
lars against the marks of the German.
1t is the duty of every stay-at-home to overwhelm
the German war chest.
Every dollar you can spare, every dollar that you
save is needed by your country
Every such dollar that is not invested in Liberty
Bonds is STACKER DOLLAR and its retention in
your pocket stamps you as DOLLAR STACKER.

We Miss You, Bows!

the first line of civil song which has become
classic.
Were the home people to unite in answering such
a query today, mighty chorus would go up to cheer

ways of teasing Sis. But how all miss himl How

There's job we've got before us and we ought to

"Win the War"
We've no time for peace discussion, we must fight
against the Prussian,
For his every deed and action we abhor;

go through it,
We have started and we'll do it

Spite Of loud pro-German yammer and of agitators'
camor

Words seditious-we must squelch EN- we must stop
the mouths that belch en-

Though the forces that are craven rant and oburgae
and rave in
Many tongues without inklng what it's for
And the leaders of dissension raise howl of large
dimension

Speaking of Rewards for Kaiser's CAPTURE.

1t is solemnly telegraphed from Fort Worth Tex
that Poolvle Parker County, has raised s1246so as
reward for the capture of the Kaiser and that prac
tically every male resident contributed
All of which sounds good and patriotic but is MOTH
ing of the sort The thought occurs that the place for
that s6o and for every other Kaiser reward in this
country, is liberty loan bonds.
In effect every citizen who buys liberty loan bonds
is offering way to scotch the Kaiser Follow the dol
lars subscribed for bonds The money is paid into the
Treasury. Uncle Same it to train, equip and
transport soldiers to the battle6eids of France He
uses it 10 buy clothing, ammunition food for the SOL
diers Every rifle bullet sped its way to the Ger
man trenches is paid for by money raised this way.
The dollars raised for the liberty loan make the
fight for liberty possible. More than that every dollar
IS aimed directly at the Kaiser and all the sayaeery
brutality and menace that he stands for 1t is BY our
dollars that we will conquer him.

A Tax on Patriotism.

Thousands of women are spending every spare
minute knitting for the sodiers-but not enough
thousands.
The papers say EVERYBODY knitsl" but the
kntters limited to women who have at least some
of money.
Red Cross headquarters sends out urgent calls for
snitters but one important factor which prevents
the great mass of from answering is the
bitant price of the khaki and gray yarns
The Red Cross does its splendid best to supply all
who offer help with yarn at cost, free of
charge, but it is unable to meet the great demand
And there is also stipulation that all finished gar
ments shall be returned to headquarters. :.
Although the loyal women glad to think their
work is protecting soldier, many mothers would
be happier if they could feel SURE their own boys
were warm
But there is the price of yarn-oo cents hank
Two and half hanks required for sleeveless
sweater and hye for having sleeves. The total
mounts to what impossible height for slen-
der purse.
The pity of it is that this utility yarn of khaki and
gray is quite expensive its lovely sisters in rain

price of yarn MUST be high keep up the reason

tensibly very remote at the time of
initiating this step, must be consid-
cred at this time-is the belief that
such valuation would form basis
upon which the country or the States
could perhaps purchase and operate
the railroads under some public-own-
ership scheme.
The most appealing cause for a re-
view Of the situation by Congress is
the statement which some of the
members have heard that instead of
requiring two or three years time
at a cost Of from 5000 900 to 5000, COO,
tne valuation work will cost more
than $4,000. and will require four
years and perhaps more to complete.
Ihere Is some dispute over the last
point but 1t is so generally conceded
that the cost will be greater than
first planned that some of the mem
oers teel a statement in the matter
should be had, and perhaps along with
1t an inquiry into the progress made
on the work.
The usual misunderstanding and dis
agreement between the railroads and
the valuators is found in this mann
moth valuation task. The disagree
ment starts first over the terms
value" and valuation" Value. the
roads insist pertains only to com
mercial transactions. Valuation, they
insist further, is an appraisal, and
they think the Commission should do
nothing more than make an appraisal
Of their properties. The Commission's
experts take opposite ground. and SO
It Is apparent to Congress that be-
fore the figures are finally approved
there will be a contest between the
valuators and the railroads, with le-
ments Of Justice on both sides, and
some elements of Justice likewise on
both sides. One phase of a Com
gressional review of the matter, in
TACT, might define these terms ex-
plicitly, it Is pointed out.

Physical Valuation.

During the war session Just closed
members of Congress did not have
an opportunity to focus their atten-
ton on matters Of other public in
terest.
At the Forthcoming regular session
many of these outside matters will
have attention. something which no
doubt leads Champ Clark and other
Congressional leaders to the belief
that the session will be Of lengthy
duration.
One activity that is, likely to be
looked into is the physical valua-
ton of the railroads of the country,
now under the direction of the In
terstate Commerce Commission. This
phase Of public activity has been
proved of little or no avail in sew
eral of the States Of the Union, and
the fear of some of the Congressmen
is, in spite of Congressional approval
of the step some time ago, that a
Federal valuation will not accomplish
any overwhelming results.
Those who approved the idea when
1t was before Congress hoped that
it would serve several purposes, viz. :
First, that it would establish clearly
the capitalization of each railroad
system in the country and that the
evil practice of ton
could thus be checked. Second, that
the valuation would form the basis
for rate-making In the future and
that rates thus made on this basis
would be both equitable to the rail-
roads and fair to the public. Third.
that It would form a basis for rea-
sonable and just taxation. and fourth,
that it would furnish accurate fig
ures tending to show whether regu-
lation had been beneficial or .detri-
mental to the carriers operation.

pany with Frenchmen, Britons and Italians shall carry
this war to victorious end.
Such an end will probably mean the restoration of
the German people to their own. 1t will rule by
the people instead of by the Hohenzolern tribe. 1t
will mean that the Germans having been taught ter
rible lesson by the armed democracies of the world
will have done with military machines, dreams of
pre visions of loot and conquest and will get down
to solid constructive instead of destructive work
