Taking Over the New Ships

The first really vigorous forward step made
by the United States in its war program is the
communicating Of all the work now under con-
struction in the several shipyards of the country.
Raising and equpping an army, passage of needed
appropriation, selling huge bond issue and SINH
lar acts are the routine acts of preparation, but
the taking over OF the ships now being built, to
add them to the equipment OF the government, is
really war move Of first magnitude. German ex-
pefts base their assertion that the United States
is neglible quantity in the European fighting be-
cause of shortage OF tonnage needed to move men
and materials. In making this they rey on the
continued activity of the U-boats, credting that
campaign with such effect as to keep down trans
Atlantic transportation. It is quite apparent.
therefore, that our government has foresecn anv
dlfhculty that might be experienced in the mat
ter OF securing transports and, while relying on
the shipping of its maritime allies it proposes
also to secure what may be required on its own
motion. Our navy has never been as thoroughly
supported with noncombattant vessels as its great
rivals, nor has our army had an extensive fleet
Tor its service, but the move now made will in
measure meet the emergency Transport for
men and munitions will be provided, despite the
U-boat threats.

Question Of Food Prices.

The Federal Trade commission has actually
commenced work Of inquiry into the price OF food
in the United States preliminary to the general
survey of the entire food situation, soon TO be in
shtuted. 1t will be weeks, perhaps, before any
definite statement may be looked for, as a salts
factory investigation will take long time to
make. Governmental inquiries have seldom had
the effect of really remedying the trouble looked
INTO, for the very reason that, no matter what
the finding, delays from one cause or another
have interered with the report and the applica-
tion OF any suggested improvement until the pub
lie has forgotten the existence of the board in
watching some new grievance. This time, how
ever, the subject is too vital in its nature and
all-embracing in its scope to permit the inquiry
being smothered by interested parties A gen.
eral and welfounded belief exists that food prices
have been unfairly manipulated, that supplies have
been controlled and artificial shortage created, to
the end that gamblers in public necessities have
enriched themselves through imitation thus made
possible. The first great duty OF the new board
will be to get to the bottom of this condition.
When that point is reached start can be made
on the next big job, that of protecting consumers
from further extorton.

Starvation and War

II IS OF the last Importance at this time that
our bankers particularly should bring before the
wide public with whom they are brought in con-
tact IN the most intimate and confidential way the
seriousness and purpose Of the war. Above all,
they should discourage sentimental peace talk,
where the wish is merely father to the thought
Miss Jane Addams furnishes an example of this
KIND OF agitation, unconsciously bringing out the
typicay illogical position Of the pac6st She SAYS
Ihe United States owes too much to all ma
tlons VINO nave come here to till her broad acres
to allow the women and children of any nation to
starve. The United States should tell its allies
1t is not in this war for the purpose OF starving
women and children"
Miss Addams is incapable OF falsehood, but this
IS much more dangerous because it is half truth.
She states that part which suits her sentiment and
ignores the rest. When she speaks of starving
women and children she means the women and
children OF Germany. When the north block
AIDED the south il was not concerned about the
women and children, for the good reason that il
was always in the power of the south to nrotect
them by surrender.
This is the principle OF siege and blockade The
blockade OF the allies is increasingly effective and
II does not seem TO occur to Miss Adams that
Germany and its German friends here have made
two irreconeilable statements and continue to
make them, indifferent to the fact that one lille
the other. The first is that Germany cannot be
starved out. The second is that the allies are as
Miss Adams claims, starving Germany's women
and children.
Before the surrender of Paris in 1871 Bis.
marck was asked If, in common humanity he
would allow the little babies to be taken out OF
the city in order to save their innocent lives. He
fatly refused. He said the Parsians could termi.
nate the siege and the hardshps it involved by
surrender. A siege without such hardships would
be no siege at all II the women and children OF
Germany are starving Germany can always ter
inmate the blockade. 1t can surrender. Ii does
not hesitate to starve the women and children OF
Belgium or of Poland or Rounania But evil
the mind of Miss Adams.

Where Mexico Gets Its Revenue

President Carranza is going about the Job of
revivins the depleted exchequer of his country
in very practical and energetic way and by the
time he reappears for election-should he last
out his present term-he will have a considerable
fund accumulated in the treasury he found empty,
most OF it gathered from the foreigner he so
frankly dislikes Principal of the new taxes he
has decreed since he received the formal election
as president is one on oil and all its derivatives
entering into export. Whatever of the Mexican
product is consumed in Mexico is free of tax.
but each drop Of oil of any grade entering into
the export trade, as well as all the by-products
OF refining must pay tribute to the national ex-
chequer. As the sale OF oil for export is almost
wholly to the United States and England, the
Mexican oil fields being owned by American and
British eoncessionares, the tax is paid by the coun-
tries for which the genial president in the past
has expressed the least liking. OF course, this
plan offered the readiest means for supplying the
urgent needs of the country for reliable reve-
nue. and the oil industry deserves the designation
applied to it by the president in his decree, "a
tount OF income for the federal treasury, propor
tionate TO the great profits derived therefrom by
the companies and concerns dedicated to the oil
industry" Between oil and sisal, the Gringo is
going to be pretty steady contributor to the
fund Tor rehabilitating Mexico.
