PUTTING ON \ SHOW,

We have from the first consistently
supported the crusade for food con-
servatiop. for the reason that we be-
lieve there might not be enough food
to 20 around some of these war days
II we did not call halt upon exrava-
gance and wastcfulness in its use But
we have not believed that the nation
would benefit one bit by anybody
denying themselves the requisite nour-
ishment to keep themselves physically
In trim. Neither have we taken any
stock In methods Of economy. sa called,
which would throw men out Of work
or stop the wheels Of industry or give
the sheriff lien upon places of hon
est and legitimate business. We be
lieve in business as usual" and that
what harms business harms the ma
tion. Starvation tactics may have
some effect on lowering high prices,
but the price paid for that accom-
plishmcnt would be altogether too
dear And while urging all reason
able economies, we have warned our
readers to beware OF hysterical propo-
sitions masquerading under that name.
There have been many foolish things
proposed In the name Of conservation
which, II put into effect, would do
much harm and little possible good.
In this category we are inclined to
class the recent announcement that
il might be necessary soon to have
government regulation Of the Use Of
gasoline, II is quite true, doubtless,
that the uses Of this liquid are multi
plying faster than the sources of pro-
duction, condition which must be
aggravated 10y war demands Yet it
seems to us as Is announced by n
competent authority ON the subject.
that the possible sources Of gasoline
are more than sufficient to meet all
demands for many years to come
without the necessity of stinting. the
chief thing necessary to its increase
being that fits production should be
encouraged rather than frowncd upon.
We may Doe mistaken. but as far as
we are able to see thru milstone.
there lis both politics and business
strategy in the move to regulate the
use OF gasoline and stop its use FOR
amy but profitable purposes. We
do not like TO See gasoline, or any
other useful substance. wasted. but
there may he "a nisscr in this wood

PAYING A DEBT.

A certain Kansas sheriff refused r.
serve on the exemption board without
pay, justifying himself by the claim
that he owed the nation nothing and
that his services were worth paying
for. This In view of the fact that
many men of talent and ability have
left their usual ayocations at the call
of the president and are giving, not
a week or two, but all OF their time
90 the nation without promise or hope
OF reward, except tho reward Of n CON
science pleased at the performance OF
patriotic duty The Kansas sheriff
was lacking in patriotism to an un-
thlnkablc degree. rs well as being n
magnificd example Of that sclfishness
Of heart which is the nations greatest
impcd!mcut to united action. In IT
time like the present all selfish con
ceptions should take a back seat and
only the duty OF a citizen to the
country Of his birth or adoption should
take the first place az "A controlling
motive. The man in question aroused
such storm of Mortified protest that
he very justly lost his official posi-
tion.
But there may be others, less promi-
ncntly in the public eye, who have n
the country a great favor by helping
In the war-thnt they owe the coun-
try nothing and all they do for It is n
sratuity. If any such read this let
them rcndiust their mental viewpoint
at once and realize their error. They
owe the country great duty. a trc-
mcndous debt that cannot be wholly
discharged except they exert their
fullest ability in its service, even If
that includes giving up life. Every
thing they have is due to government
care and protection except the mere
fact of having been born, and even
that incident might have been lack
inT If their parents had not enjoyed
the oversight Of government Except
the debt a man owes to God ana his
there is no greater debt
that he owes than his obligation to
the government and when that gov
ernmont needs help his aid is not
favor hut a duty Of the highest order.
The Kansas sheriff lied miserahly
when he said he owed the government
nothing. His refusal to pay the debt, !
even In the way that was asked. is
one Of the most desplsable forms of
treason.

CONSTITUTIONAL
CHANGE FOR POWER

Gated, aid OF the federal government
must be invoked. The partnership
of the liquor traffic and the federal
government is one of the most fright
full heritagos of the civil war"
Senator Underwood declared adop-
tion OF the amendment would tend TO
centralize our government under n
police autocracy such as in Germany
and Austro-Hungary, entrenching
national authority and weakening
sovereignty of the people.
II see no reason why we cannot
trust, ms in the past, the enlightened
electorate of each state to pass ncces-
sary laws for domestic control OF their
own people" the Alabama senator
continued. "If the federal govern
ment is once called on to enter the
field. apprehend and punish the petty
vices of citizens In respect to matters
authorized by this resolution, It will
not be long before efforts will be
made to further extend police powers
OF the federal government and this
will destroy state boundaries and
abolish state governments"
