WANT THE NEWS STRAIGHT

Secretary of War Baker seems to have become mbued
with the idea that the Americans need to have their news
censored that in addition they need to have it Favored so
as to tickle their palaes. This shown in the highly
coored story given out by George Creel magazine
writer as chairman of the committee public nforma-
ton committee that really has existence other than
that given it by the secretary. Mr. Creel evidently
imagined he writing magazine story for the edifi
cation of his readers instead of dealing with story
which any news reporter could have told him valuable
only as it adhered to the truth. AS magazine writer
Cree wrote to please while cub reporter even, would
have known that that kind of stuff had business in the
news columns.
The English leaders started into the with this
idea that the people should be oied along when
ever it was possible They discovered their mistake
though yet from old habit try sometimes to keep the
people in the dark especially if the news is unfavorable
The American citizen is mans sze and is not stampeded
by disaster frightened by defeat He only stirred to
more heroic efforts He wants to know the truth and
all the truth about such things be told without
danger to the boys the 'front.' to act to be per-
formed by the authorities He does not demand to know
all that is going on but he does demand and will insist on
his demand being complied with that such news as is
given out by the departments shall be straight lie Isl
part of the government the individuals like Secretary
Baker who think he should be kept in leading strngs1
deriving their power and place from or through him.
Creel made very readable story out of a submarneI
attack on the fleet carrying the Pershing forces to
France and the only trouble with it that it mostly
happened in Mr.. Crees perfervid imagination. Mr..
Baker nor any other in authority need not fear for
Americans when some disaster such as sinking trans
port happens very likely, for he will learn the only
effect viii be to stir the country to whrwind Of energy
and to crowd the recruiting offices to capacity while
taking the strings off every pocketbook in the land

may be Won Italy's war is a war for
independence and fot humanity.
I'VE are fighting for the same

Mr.. Nitti, professor of economies

with authority the report that the
commission had reached an agreement
with the American government regard
ing the status of Italians Of military
age in this country.
There must be more than 25O,0 900
Italians in the United States who are
liable for military duty he said but
they are for the most part over the
age limit petition, as the great ma
jority of cur young men abroad re-
turned to Italy at the outbreak of the
war. The men who remain here are
men of family and have established
themselves in the community. The
question is will they be of greater
service by remaining here"
Mr. Nitti said the mission plan
would solve the question to the
entire satisfaction Of both countries,

coupled with a strong good-roads

Farm and Fireslde, as a pan to line
the roads Of the township with trees.
The principal reason advanced by the
committee which has charge of the
project Is to make the roads more
pleasant to travel in the heat Of sum-
mer.
'Tn addition, the trees will in meas
ure help to keep the surrounding
ground moist by preventing rapid evap-
grafton, thus keeping down the dust.
They will shelter travellers during
storms, check the erosion of bitches
on hills, beautify adjacent property,
and add to the general attractiveness
Of land values Of the community.
"Those who start such work are not
likely to live long enough to see their
plans fully completed and to enjoy the
shade. This fact lends a pathetic touch
to the project as well as indicating a
sincere and unselfish desire to be Of
public service"

For the first few weeks the mare

one of linseed meal by weight may be

Let the colt have clover or alfalfa
hay as soon as he will eat 1t. See to
1T that he has access to clean, pure
water at all times. If the mare and
fOal are running in the pasture a creep
should be made where the colt can
have access to grain.
