Mr.. Mccormick reached Europe
early in August, at first spending TWO
very busy weeks IN France, where
he was received not only by the
members Of the French government.
but by NJ. Ribot, the former premier,
and M. Painleve, who has recently
been elevated to the premiership. In
these conferences Mr.. Mccormick
had an advantage over most of the
! important Americans who have Wis
| tied France since the war began in
the fact that he speaks French per-
| fectIy.
This ability to speak French with
easy fuency gave him an advantage,
also, when he visited the American
army camp, where he went to watch
the boys from home under the first
stages of their instruction in the
new arts Of warfare which have
been born of this great struggle.
During his visit they were learning

IOWA PRESS COMMENT.

Des Moines Capital: 1t is announc-
ed that the pope has requested the
Kaiser not to destroy the city OF
Venice on account of it's priceless
paintings and statuary. No reply has
been received from the kaiser. He
will probably give iron crosses TO those
of his soldiers who destroy the great
est and most precious works of art.
Then he will deny it.
Burlington Hawk-Eye: 1t is Just
as bad TO repeat ridiculous story as
to originate it. All sorts of fake tales
are making the rounds. Some people
will just believe anything and some
will embellish and add to anything
that they hear and will pass it on. 1t
Is worse since we entered the war.
But every newspaper man knows that
it was bad enough before.
Boone News-Republican: Congress
man Good insists that he will pay his
share OF the income tax. He has got
some sense of the fitness of things.
Sioux CITY Journal: Possibly part
of that exceedingly chummy feeling
between the American and French sol
diers is due to the delightful sensa
ton of being kissed by somebody with
whiskers.
Ottumwa Courier: There may be
weakness in the Lloyd-George make
up, but the British premier's course in
the past two weeks leaves little
ground for, accusing him of owning
a cringing or compromising streak.
Cedar Rapids Republican: 1t is
somewhat automatic that man who
will not help to defend and protect
America is not entitled to have any
property. No man can ask another
to do all the work of defending what
he has. Thereby it can be converted
into the property of the man who pro-
tects It. In other words, any man
who wants to be part OF the prosper
itv of this country would better get
into its first or second or third or
some other line Of its defense.
Davenport Democrat: The fact that
soma of the negro selects arrive at
Camp Dodge not knowing who the
kaiser is. whether they are going to
tieht at Des Moines Of in Alabama or
in Europe. or whether they'll be trust
ed with guns like white men. shows

HELP RAILROADS AND COUNTRY.


war board, says he wants the public to under
stand that passenger trains have been elimin-
ated for one purpose only-to save equipment,
man power and track space that is absolutely
needed to handle the tremendous increase IN
freight transportation that the war has pro-
duced The public should also understand that
every effort that the Individual family makes in
any form of conservation will help in the solu
ton Of the transportation problem, as well as
the other economic war problems of the United
States. By using food and fuel economically,
by refraining from the use of things that are
unnecessary for healthy existence, by support
ing the movement against the'use of freight for
hauling non essentials, the people as whole
will lessen the burden of the railroads and
thereby make it possible for them to render
more and better transportation service for the
troops munitions Of war, food, fuel and alb the
other commodities that must be properly dis
tributed both in our own country and IN the
countries of our allies, if we are to carry the
war to successful conclusion.
government bulletin suggests the valuable
work which can be done by teachers OF home
economics in the public schools. These teach
ers have already been able agents In many COM
munities in promoting the food conservation
campaign and with the past summers expert
ence to guide they can become even more help
full One suggestion made IN the bulletin is
practical in department OF work than can be
made more efficient than it now Is 1t is sug-
gested that teachers of sewing devote special at
tention to the planning and executing of work
done with old material; that pupils Of proper
age be taught remodeling Of garments and the
combination Of materials in their possession In
a useful way Pupils in upper grades in some
large city schools now devote considerable time
to sewing on material furnished by the school
which they fashion into products for their own
uses and take home. It is properly suggested
that this sort Of thing be replaced by work for
Red Cross and other agencies helpful to the gov
eminent IS war program. The educational value
would be greater and the technical ability
gained quite as great.
While the railroad outlook has not been
cleared by the developments IN the past week,
mo one believes there will be strike. The
government does not wish to take over the
roads, but it will not permit anything like a
general interruption of traffic at a time when
its own demands upon the carriers are larger
than ever before
