SEEKS DEAF HUNDER TRAIN


 snatched from Under Wheels at Washington Street Crossing.
 Discouraged over alleged family troubles and worry; it is believed. be- cause of the heavy human harvest claimed by the war among relatives and countrymen, Mrs. Natalina Buch- ieri of Franklin street made sensa- tional attempt at suicide yesterday, seeking death beneath the wheels of a "New Haven" train at the Washing ton street crossing.
 She was saved from going under the wheels of the speeding locomotive by two unidentified men, who seized her and drew her to safety just as the train rushed by. Gennaro Palmieri reported the near tragedy to police headquarters. Mrs. Buchieri was taken to headquarters later by Police- man Delbert Veley. She admitted the attempted suicide but, beyond claim ing family troubles to be responsi- ble, was reticent as to her conduct. Upon her promise to act differently, she was allowed to so.

Crying patheticaily and nearly prostrate with grief because of the fear that her three year old boy had come to some harm. Mrs. Baweski of 341 Elm street appealed to the police this morning to find her lost child. She took the boy with her while doing shopping for Sunday and lost track of him in a Main street store. The boy was bundled up in g. shawl, the mother feeling that he would be unable to get far without assistance. She made round of the neighboring stores in search of him without success. Policemen on Main street beats were notified.

once to Every Man and Nation.

Once to Every Man and Nation. Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide. In the strife of Truth with Falsehood. for the good or evil side: Some great cause, Gods new Messiah. offering each the bloom or blight, Parts the goats upon the left hand, and the sheep upon the right, And the choice goes by forever twixt that darkness and that light. Has thou chosen. o my people. on whose party thou shalt stand, Ere the Doom from it's worn sandals shakes the dust against our land Though the cause of Evil prosper, yet 'tis Truth alone is strong. Backward look across the ages and the beacon-moments see. That, like the peaks of some sunk continent. just through Oblivon's sea:
 Not an ear in court or market for the low foreboding cry Of those Crises. Gods stern winnow- CTS from whose feet earth's chaff must fly:
 Never shows the choice momentous till the Judgment hath passed by. JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

Twenty-Five years ago the Stamford Daily Advocate came into existence the outgrowth of a weekly newspaper established in 1929. In celebration of these twenty-five years of activity in the daily newspaper field. the Gillespie Bros.. Inc, publishers of the Advo- cate. have issued "a little booklet sketching the progress of the paper and the town. This is printed in lieu of the usua! anniversary edition. The history of tho Stamford Daily Advo- cate runs parallel with the history of newspaper making in this country. It started on it's career shortly after Mergenthaler invented the linotype; at the time when the telegraph and the telephone facilitated thesquick de- spatch of news: when the old Wash. inston fiat-bed press'' gave way to the multiple press. The Advocate stood on the threshold when the door of the New Journalism was opened. It has continued apace with the pro- fessdon: It has been what any good newspaper should be in it's commu- nifty; an aid and guidance to its readers.

THE NATIONS RESOURCES.


 Under the Americant flag there will be brought into this the greatest of all wars more potential resources than have ever been possessed by any other. nation in the world at any time. Men, money and munitions are the three great Ms" that stand for the actual strength of the United States today. Men.-there are some twenty million in the country capable of doing mili- tary duty. Money,-there is the great est gold accumulation ever assembled in the exchequer of any nation. billions of it. Munitions,-thef factories of the United States are working night and day turning out the necessary equip ment for an army and navy. The imagination of man can hardly stretch to take in the vast resources at hand. Pencil and paper may draw picture of what Uncle Sam can throw into the balance. The minds eye falters at such . vast scene.
 The nations first line of defense is the navy. In strength and efficiency the United States navy is ranked as one of the greatest afloat. What it lacks in men 1t makes up in accuracy of gunnery. There is no navy in the world that has crack shots comparable with the gunners in Uncle sam's navy. Great Britain has more ships than any nation on earth. The United States has the finest body of men on the high seas. What the nation has failed to squander for more ships 1t has spent for target practice. It's policy has been to train men to man ships. rather than to purchase vessels without having the necessary men to take care of them.
 The United States army is a com- paratively small one. At present it's membership reaches somewhere near the 100000 mark. Tho. men in that army though are trained to the min- ute. Small when compared to some of the armies maintained by the na- tions of Europe even in times of peace, the United Stetes army is the match, man for man, of any army on earth. The bravery of it's men has never been questioned. The efficiency of it's officers is known to excel that of any other group of commanders on earth West Point is the highest training school for army officers known to be in existence. These are the things that insure the safety of the United States mo matter what it is called upon to face in the way of war. It's National Guard of t5O,OOO men is in very good shape after an experience on the Mexican border.

OBEY THE LAW.

Federal prosecutors throughout the
 country have been instructed by the
 United States Department of Justice at Washington to give widest pulp -licity to the subjoined:
 No German alien enemy in this
 country who has not hitherto been
 implicated in plots against the in- terests of the United States need have
 any fear of action by the Department of Justice so long as he observes the following warning:
 Obey the law! sss < Keep your mouth shut!'''
 Exception may be taken to the in elegance of the last phrase of that warning; but this is no time to mince. language.
 z In the past two years and a half there has been great deal of talking in the United States. Words! Words! Words! Wherever men gathered there was talk of the war in Europe. Talk led to argument Argument led to rashness o reason. That in turn brought on deluge of wild asser- tions Men in the heat of debate said things they never meant, said things they would never have uttered upon second sober thought"
 Because of what has been said in. the past, the Department of Justice has been called upon to list some of the more rabid speakers. There are some 1S.0OO names on the books. These men are liable to be snapped into detention camps at any moment. It is but fair warning to notify them of the law. to ask them to hold their tongues.
 Yet the words of the Attorney Gen. eral should not be taken as applying only to German aliens in this country. They apply. as we'll to American whether native or foreign born. The time for words has passed. Actions are in demand now. No man, whether he be . subject of the Ger man Kaiser in this country or . citi- zen of the United States, will be inn mune from suspicion if he allows ut bordering on disloyalty to be part of his conversation. Nhturalized and native cftizens are warned as we'll as aliens.
 Common sense must not be aban- doned at this time. Men with names of German origin occupy an embar- | rassing position. Their lot will be | made much easier oy rigid following | of the advice laid down by the De- partment of Justice. Those who were born on this soil must not talk any more than those who gfirst saw the light of day in other countries. Be- cause man Is of foreign birth is no reason why he cannot be as loyal, if not more 90, than the native born. The one great test for all is obedience | Q the law. That Is all that is asked.
