Where the Censorship flinders

Do you get the point?
If Belgium had been satisfied to do only her
bit, the Kaiser would have overrun all her pos
sessions; if France had been contented to rest
when she did her Bit the Kaiser would have an
nexed her territory; if Great Britain had rested
after she did her bit, the Kaiser might today be
flying his banner over London.
1t wasn't the doing of their bit that saved
these countries but the willingness to do their all
that checked the inroads Of despotism. They
have accepted this war as call for complete, alb
solute, unqualified, unconditional and supreme
surrender of every interest to the one great OBJ
ject, namely, to crush the foe.
That's the way we Americans must look upon
this job.
We are no longer in the "do our bit stage but
in the "do our all stage If we do not wake up
to this fact, we will be defeated.
AS individuals we must learn this truth, and
our representatives in Congress must understand
that that's how we feel about it. The revelation
made in the congressional inquiries in Washing
ton regarding the ordnance department illustrate
the point.
We don't want officials who are "doing their
Bit" but men who will do their ALL to see that
our fighting strength is made potential factor
in the great struggle at the very earliest moment
If red tape has to be cut, cut it. If incompetent
men block speed and efficiency, displace them.
