UNHYPENATED POSITIVE 10y Atty
From The Wisconsin Alumni MagaZ

While this is no time for unpleasant
personal post mortems OF what in
dividuals thought Or said before war
was declared. it must be remembered
that positive loyalty is now demanded
Of every American. This is no time to
sit tight and keep quiet. To be neutral
with our own country in the war is no
longer possible. To say nothing and to
do nothing for our own country at
this time is serious sin of OMISSION a
despicable form of disloyalty. To
think loyalty speak Loyalty, and act
Loyalty are the present demands. We
are for America. We are against
Germany. There is no middle ground.
Great credit is due to those who,
whatever racial or birth feeling they
may have shown before war was de-
clared have now valiantly decided to
be unquaIifedly loyal Americans.
We predict also that as an organiza
ton the Alumni Association will be
conservatively careful before branding
any graduate as traitor prior to dis
eliminating examination of all the
facts. We are also certain that neither
the eminence of former honor, the
brilliancy of past glory, nor the
strength of present power can prevent
any alumnus of this University from
marking on his own record an indelible
brand of treason should he or she fail
to meet the Nations demand for
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1917-11-01

unhyphenated positive loyalty. The
question is a present tense one. To be
a pacifst before war was declared does
not privilege one to give aid, comfort,
and assistance to the enemy after war
has been declared. The right to oppose
war before war was declared does not
privilege one to obstruct the war for
freedom after it has been declared.
"Pacifst" "neutral' are two words
that are entirely out of use and utterly
out of use and utterly undefnable in a
country engaged in a righteous war
After honorable peace has been de-
clared, may the pacifists flourish.
Prior to that time, may they be wars
loyalist supporters that peace may be
the more quickly secured.
The action of cur regents, our faculty.
our alumni, our students, shows that
we fully understand that our country
now justly demands positive loyalty.
May any of us who shall be challenged
as to our loyalty be not content to
make our accusers prove protests Of
disloyalty but let each and every one
of us take pride in being able to show
undeniable proofs Of loyal thoughts,
loyal words, loyal deeds. Mere acts Of
neeation do not constitute loyalty. We
take pride in stating that the courag-
eous University of Wisconsin is loyal
in it's teachings, in its official utter
ances, and in it's acts of sacrifice and

| Camp Waste Branded AZ Lie.

The quartsrmastsr OF Camp Custer.
Major M. M. Garrett brands as German
propaganda the story that large piles
OF waste lumber have been burned ct
Camp Custer.
Offcers say German sympathizers
are carrying on campaign Of lies con-
corning conditions at the camp. to
weaken the morale of the citizens of
Michigan.
Major Garrett explains that during
operations, as a precaution against fire
risk, all waste material was taken from
the buildings and placed in huge piles.
A small portion OF this waste was used
for garbage incineration. The rest Is
still on the grounds, and Is now being
carefully sorted. Some will be used
for new buildings, some for fences for
the corrals, and some for sheeting OF
trenches and underground work used
by the soldiers. The remainder will
be cut up for kindling wood for the
barracks kitchens. The camp gym.
which has been ordered, will be built
with lumber salvaged from this waste
pile.
A companion story is the one about
the food waste at Camp Custer which
Major Garrett also declared to be a
German lie, put out with the sole In
tent of breaking down the morale OF
the American people.
