 PROFIT AND PATRIOTISM
 "Patriotism leaves profits out Of
 the question. Tn these days of our
 supreme trial, when we are send-
 inr hundreds of thousands of our
 young men across the seas to
 serve great cause. no true man
 who stays behind to work for
 them and sustain them by his la
 bor will ask himself what he IS
 personally going to make out of
 that labor. No true patriot will
 hermit himself to take toll of their
 patriotism in money or seek to
 grow rich by the shedding of their
 blood. He will give freely and
 with as unstinted self-sacrifice as
 they. When they are giving their
 lives, will he not give at least his
 mOneyf
 II hear it insisted that more than a just price, more than price that will sustain our industries must be paid; that it is necessary to pay very liberal and unusual profits in order to stimulate production: that nothing but pecuniary rewards will do it-re- wards paid in money not in the mere liberation of the world.
 WHAT DO THEY MEAN?
 T take it for granted that those who argue thus do not stop to think what that means. Do they mean that you must be paid. must be bribed to make your contribution. contrieu- ton that costs you neither drop of blood nor tear, when the whole world is in travail and men everywhere de- pend upon and call to you to bring them out of bondage and make tliC world a fit place to live in again amidst peace and justice? Do they mean that you will exact a price, drive a bargain. with the men who are en- during the agony of this war on the battlefield, in the trenches, amidst the lurking dangers of the sea. or with thc bereaved women and the pitiful chil- dren. before you will come forward to do your duty and give some part of your life. in easy. peaceful fashion, for the things we are fighting for, the things we have pledged our for tunes. our lives. our sacred honor. to vindicate and defend-liberty and jus tice and fair dealing and the peace ot nations?
 ONLY ONE COURSE "Of course. you will not. It is ip- conceivable Your patriotism is of the i same self-denying stuff as the patriot l ism of the men dead or maimed on the | field of France, or else it is no patriot ism at all Let us never speak then oi

CHINA'S MILITARY ADVENTURER FACING CAPTURE IN PEK|NG
Dispatches Direct From the Capital Tell of Utter Fail- ure of Monarchial Eff
 fort of Chang-Hsun

Washington, July 1.--Entry of the re- publican troops into Picking was an- nounced in a dispatch to the Chinese le- gation today, indicating that the mon- archial coup de'etat had come to com plete failure.
 The dispatch was the first in two weeks to come through direct from the Peking foreign office. The second and final abdication of the Manchu Emperor Hsuan- Tung, it said, is expected along with the arrest of General Chang -Hsun. the military adventurer. responsible for the coup, ordered taken into custody by the new President.
 CHANG FACING CAPTURE
 General Chang -Hsun has withdrawn to the imperial city, a sacred section of Picking, where 1t Is reported his troops are fast deserting him. Escape is cut off, the republicans controlling all four rail- roads out of the capital, and officials here believe that at last China is about to rid herself of military leader who has been g thorn in the side of the republic ever since its inception.
 Apparently Chang is not now in po- sition to carry out his threat to destroy the priceless temples of the city, for de- sertions are thought to have made him so weak that secret flight alone remains possible
 DISPATCHES NOT CLEAR The legations dispatches are not clear as to whether President Li, reported to have fled to the Japanese embassy in Peking for safety has returned to his office or whether acting President Feng- Kwo-Chang is still serving. There is thought now to be no reason, however, why Ii should not take over the au- thority once again and re-establish the coalition government.
 Today's dispatches reported the resig- nation of Dr. Wu 'Ting-Fang as minister of foreign affairs. pr. Wu has resigned several times before, but it is thought that now the republic has weathered it's most serious storm, he will retire from office permanently.
 TO START INQUIRY
 Inquiry will undoubtedly be made to determine the source of Changs support. On June P he asked the Japanese min ister at Picking what Japans attitude would be toward a restoration of the monarchy and received the reply that Ja- pan would not concern herself with in ternal Chinese affairs. A few days ago official intimations came from Japan that German money had been used in an at tempt to show discord in China and made actual beligerency impossible.

PEOPLE ARE MOBILIZED

And there is somethinfi more that we must add to our thinking. The pub- lie IS now IS much a part of the govern ment as axe the army and navy them selves; the whole people in all their activ- ities are now mobilized and in service for the accomplishment of the nations task in this war; it is in such circumstances impossible justly to distinguish between industrial purchases made by the govern ment and industrial purchases made by the managers of individual industries of the country, all the industries that con- tribute to it's life, as it is to sustain our forces in the field and on the sea. We must make the prices to the public the same as the prices to the govern ment
 Prices mean the same thing every where now; they mean the efficiency or the inefficiency of the nation, whether it is the government that pays them or not. They mean victory or defeat. They mean that America will win her place once for all among the foremost free nations of the world, or that she will sing to defeat and become a second rate power alike in thought and in action. This is day of her reckoning and every man amongst us must personally face that reckoning along with her.

AS TO OCEAN RATES

Let me turn for a moment to the shipowners of the United States ard the other ocean carriers whose ex-
 ample they have followed, and ask them if they realize what obs tacie5,
 what almost insuperable obstacles,
 they have been putting in the way of
 the successful prosecution of this war
 by the ocean freight rates they have
 been exacting. They are doing every thing that high freight charges can do
 to make the war failure. to make it
 impossible. I do not say that they
 realize this or intend it. The thing has
 happened naturally enough, because
 the commercial processes which we
 are content to see operate in ordinary times have without sufficient thought been continued into a period where they have no proper place. l am not questioning motives. I am merely stat ing a fact and stating it in order that attention may be fixed upon 1t.
 WORKING AGAINST COUNTRY The fact is that those who have fixed war freight rates have taken the most eff fective means in their power to defeat the armies engaged against Germany. When they realize this we may I take it for granted, count upon them to recon sder the whole matter. It is high time Their extra hazards are covered by war risk insurance. I know and you know what response to this great challenge of duty and of opportunity the nation will expect of you and I know what response you will make. Those who do not respond in the spirit of those who have gone to give their lives for us on bloody fields far away, may safely be left to be dealt with by opinion and the law-for the law must of course, command these things. I am dealing with the matter thus publicly and frankly. not because I have any doubt or fear as to the result, but only 1 in order that all our thinking and in all our dealings with one another we may move in a perfectly clear air of under istandinp
