The administration will probably
use a delicate hand in dealing with
Sweden. The truth probably is that
a great majority of the common peo-
pie of Sweden are fair-minded enough
and willing to do anything in reason
to avoid trouble with America. They
are also probably rather in sympathy
with America, and maybe with Great
Britain and the other allies. Hun
dreds of thousands of them have emf
grated to the United States and it is
notorious that most of those in this
country are pro-Ally. The Swedish
court and aristocracy, on the other
owing to the fact that the queen of
Sweden, a strong, resourceful woman,
is Hohenzollern, and partly because
there is desire to wrest Finland
from Russia by an alliance with Ger
many. The Swedish court up to a
score or so of years ago had type
of it's own, but of late it has become
an imitation of the one across the
Baltic at Berlin, and rather poor
imitation at that There was time
when it seemed like Sweden was
about to join Germany. Going into
the war now, however, since America
has become belligerent would SIM
ply ruin the country, and even the
Prussian element among the Swedes
is wise enough to realize the fact.
Swedish commerce, which is consid-
cradle, would be swept off the ocean,
and the country would at once be
locked in the same iron blockade that
is crushing Germany.

A COMPANY A ASSOCIATION

Mr.. Buford Leitner has taken to
heart the Stars suggestion that the
parents of young men in Company A
form an association, and says he in
tends to "do his Bit" in organizing
such a body. An association of that
sort could be very beneficial both to
the boys at the front and the old
folks at home. The members could
meet once a month, exchange news
and views and make plans to help the
boys. The Star will do its part in
carrying on the work if the associa-
ton is formed, and invites sugges-
tions from the fathers and mothers of
the boys among it's readers.
