Whose War Is This?
BY Meredith Nicholson Of indianapolis


This is Freedoms war; it is Democracy's war
it is Americas war. To say that the United
States should have held aloof, that we had no
business to join with the Allies against the I'M
perial Government is to offer pitiful ustra-
tion of density.
The Kaiser and the powerful autocracy he
controls began this war with the hope of domi-
mating the world No one had attacked Ger
many. Ever since the Franco-Prussan war the
German Empire has been preparing to add to it's
territory and seize new ports for its commerce.
Germany's African colonies were a failure; she
must look nearer home for opportunities of ex-
pansion, and to military power as the means to
crafty her greed.
Neither France nor England had attacked
Germany. The Balkan troubles were only an ex-
cuse for the sudden unlooked-for flinging of the
German army toward Paris. The best diplo-
matte and literary genius of Germany has at
tempted to justify that march upon Paris that
plunged the world into the most stupendous war
in history. The attempts at justification do not

ment to help supply the soldiers with books
The cause is meritorious one. The appeal
should be needed. Richmond has wealth. Rich
mond has patriotism. Subscribe the money and
buy the books.
Those of us who stay at home will be- able to
buy our daily newspapers, current magazines
and books. The war will not interrupt our chan
nels of obtaining information.
With the soldiers it is far different.
They are thousands of miles from home.
Newspapers are rare and precious. Magazines
and books are almost priceless.
The boys at the training camps will need the
books. Their recreation will be circumscrbed by
military regulations. They will not be able to
buy the newspapers, magazines and books when
ever they want to, for the supply will not be at
hand.
Well stock libraries at the training camps are
essential for the happiness of the fighters who
are undergoing training.

SAYS A CORN ACTS
LIKE ELECTRIC BELL
Tells why a corn is so painful and
says cutting makes
them grow.

Press an electric button and you
form a contact with live wire which
rings the bell. When your shoes press
against your corn it pushes its sharp
roots down upon a sensitive nerve and
you get shock of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for a
quarter of an ounce of freezone. This
will cost very little but is sufficient to
remove every hard or soft corn or cal
lus from ones feet. A few drops ap-
piled directly upon a tender, aching
corn stops the soreness instantly, and
soon the corn shrivels up so It lifts
right out, root and all, without pain.
This drug is harmless and never in

London Now Hears Of Nut
terings Of Dissatisfaction
Among Soldiers in the
KaiSer'S Army.
BY The United Press.

BY The United Press.
LONDON, oct. ii.-Having faced
what was established today as a wide
spread revolt in the navy and with
mutterings Of discomfort in the army,
the German military machine was ex-
pected by observers'here to seek eradi-
cation Of all opposing elements by new
iron hand methods.
News Of Reichstag sessions Of the
next few days will be eagerly awaited
here. Belief was expressed in some
quarters that German militarists have
obtained the opportunity afforded by
their preliminary suppression Of re-
volt TO sweep away all radicals. The
independent Socialists Of the type OF
Liebknecht, Ledebour and Haase have
always been thOrns IN the side Of the
Pan-Germans. Liebknecht was re-
moved by imposition Of a long term Of
imprisonment because ne circulated pc
titlons for stoppage Of the war. That
was several months ago. His work OF
lnternationaHsm was taken up by
Ledebour, Haase and a small minor
ity group OF Socialists. They have con-
stantly harrassed the government. Now
the government retaliates by seeking
to connect them with the naval revolt.
The first outbreak OF the uprising in
the navy occurred about September l.,
according to Holland dispatches today.
IL was at Wilhelmshaven. The move
ment was widespread and organized
and was suppressed only with the
greatest difficulty. At least four bat
tleshlp crews were affected. A NTH

other dispatches received here to-

ton had been noted in various army
units, but apparently there have been
no direct outbreaks.
Just how many naval mutineers haC
been executed and imprisoned was moi
revealed in any German dispatches to-
day. Only three were apparently exc
cuted on the Kaiser's own persona

were shot down in the fighting which

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-American
government officials took hope today
from the Germany navy mutiny.
In It they saw the chance that the
long hoped for revolution within
Germany is brewing. Previously they
had feared that the revolution would
be slow in coming and while this is
an isolated case, they predicted that
It is a forerunner Of other internal
troubles
The mutiny was regarded as the
moro significant from the fact that
the navy has had to endure none of
real hardships TO which other mem
bers Of the German military machine
have been subjected Immune from
the grilllng grind Of battle. the navy
has had comparatively good food and
good treatment. Hence when even a
few Of its members seek to upset the
Kaisers iron regime officials here
interpret the musiny as the, most i'm
portant news from Germany in receni
months. II the trouble extends to the
army and then reaches into the work
ing classes within Germany, Presi-
dent Wilson's dream OF a Germany
minus Hohenzollerism may be real
lied far in advance Of what has gen
orally been expected.
While there has been a disposition
here on the part Of some to doubt that
the German people would split on the
matter OF their intriguing leadership
the most responsible authorities have
felt all along that President Wilson's
ideal was practicable. Sooner oI later
they believe the German people Will
waken TO the realization that they are
pawns in a losing game.
