reaped harvest from these two gath

Mss Gentle IS pleasantly remembered
rom Old Manhattan opera days, VIXEN
she rose from a member OF the chorus

excellent MaGelena. Later, she sang

two seasons ago became member OF
the company AZ tire Scala. in Milan.
Miss Gentle revealed a further adj
vance in her ar: last night. She
opened rather nervously in Pace Mo
Do" from IA Fora de- Destino." but
was entirely herself IN the following
group Of American songs-songs which
possessed but lit-ie character or color
in themselves. but which the singer
managed 20 make interesting BY ne.
dramatic sense.
The same was true OF The group by
John Alden Carpenter. but IN the Rus
sian and French songs she had more
intere sting material and o. it she made
the most. IN these songs her command
of tone color, of the exp ression Of light
and shade. was most commendaole.
and throughout she displayed a fine
dramatic temperament, controlled By
Intelligence and taste.
Her voice is fine one, resonan, and
rich. especially in its riddle ranges.
Miss Gentle has. r. short, travelled far
since the day she was a chorus singer
in the company Of Oscar Hammerstein.
Her voice was always a splendid one.
She IL now an artist.
Miss Eva Gauthier's programmes are
interesting when she does not attempt
songs beyond her powers. Last nigh,
she returned 20 her true province m

People Must Think
In National Terms

To hasten on 70 the maximum or
achievement we have need Of more
thinking in national terms, not so
much by our leaders as by our PEG
PIE. The leaders at length realize
that we are no longer fitting a
chivalric lance in a combat that
would be won without US, but that
the brunt Of the battle Of the giants
has come 70 Us and. more than that,
that we are now fighting not merely
20 defend our honor and our rights
but for our place in the world.
Our people have at length realized
the need Of soldiers, and we have
100000 men under arms.
They have realized the need OF
money. and they have poured 1t out
BIZ the billions.

Organizing Workers
a Tremendous Task

Organizing Workers
a Tremendous Task
Think Of the stupendous efforts
and the genius Of organization AMI
construction it has required TO as-
semble, house. equip and train the
new armies and then try TO realize
what we must do in the way Of mobi-
lization Of more than half as many 10
man a single industry. Think Of
what that means, Workmen must
be sheltered and fed as we'll as
troops. They must be encouraged
and cared for and their minds as
we'll as their muscles must be trained
for their tasks. The army and navy
had bureaus already organized and
specially trained for their recruiting.
modelling, equipping and training
work, but the Shipping Board. new,
unorganized. overwhelmed with a
thousand other tasks and problems
Of the first magnitude, must find a
building army half as large and must
train its raw men as il fights-as il
luilds. The army does not purpose
to fight until it has completed large
part Of its organization. The Ship
ping Board must build, build, build,
as it assemblies and trains.
Where is this mighty army of
fighting builders to come from. how
is it to be trained, how is it to be
housed. how is it to be inspired?
First Of all. the fact must be plain
IL faced that a sweeping readjust-
ment of all the mechanical industries
of the nation is necessary. The time
has come when no factory should be
permitted to operate unless for some
other war purpose than shipbuilding
if it employs men who are adapted TO
shipbuilding. The wonderful auto
mobile factories Of America must
sacrifice themselves. If they are not
used TO supply needed transport or
converted 70 the manufacture of air
planes or munitions they must be
closed or restricted so that their men
can be shifted to shipbuilding
Through voluntary effort, govern
ment pressure or actual commander
ing this sacrifice is sure to come.
The workmen will have to be ex
cmpted from military service and
persuaded to volunteer for ship
building for places of honor in the
great civilian army Of national ser.
vice.
II they do not volunteer they
will have to be Communicated, too.
It is considered that compulsory d.
version Of men from their accus-
toned pursuits to shipbuilding will
not be necessary. but war IS an i'm
perious master and the fate Of ma
tons cannot be permitted TO hang on
individual caprice or inclination.

Ships Ships Ships
Amy of 80 900 Workers Must Be Enlisted TO Build Ships
Preferably Volunteers, but by Draft
If Necessary
BY Theodore NJ Knappen

Now they must realize the need Of
human energy IN the vast mechanical
substructure of war.
Consider the demand for man
rover in shipbuilding.
To carry out the programme Of
miracles in shipbuilding that has
been assigned to Us we must call TO
the yards that build for the sea $50,
COO men. In other words. we musv
find and mobilize for one industry Of
war more than half as MANY men as
we have now called 20 the colors.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-11-02
Volunteers, or, If
Necessary, the Draft

No man who hesitates 10 volunteer
for service on the fighting line or
whose responsibilities are such that
he is not permitted TO do so should
hesitate to volunteer for well-paid
service at home. If he does hesitate
the powers of government can as
easily draft him for peaceful work
at home as it can conscript his broth
ers TO the peril Of their lives.
1t is preferable, of course, that
men shall voluntarily give them
selves to this patriotic service. II
the early days of the war we had a
tremendous outburst Of voluntary
aid in recruiting for the National
Guard. regular army, navy and ma
rines. Now, the whole country must
be summoned 70 the even more vital
" important work Of rallying men
for the building of ships. Every
public body, every community, every
industrial organization. must scru-
TIME its workingmen, ascertain
which of them are adapted to ship
building and then appeal TO them as
10 soldiers to hasten where duty and
honor call.
New dignity and an increased
share Of national wealth are coming
10 labor as result Of the war.
Noblesse obligel By new sacrifices
which are in no way comparable 10
