The only city l Visited while
in Europe that had belonged
to another country and had
been occupied by the Germans,
was Warsaw, Poland.

they were asking.
"Where are the better con-
ditions we were to have had?"
And they still were asking
that when L left. l was in
Warsaw two weeks, visiting a
Polish girl friend of mine.
Everybody there was thor
oily disgusted with German
rule, and they had had it only
a short time.
bad as the Russian rule
was" they said, "at least we
did not expect anything bet
ter from the tsar. But we re-
lied on German promises. The
Russians at least let us speak
our own language, and read
our own books.
When the Germans occu-
pied Warsaw, they forbade
any person to speak the Polish
language. Everybody had to
speak German and those who
did not know it had to learn
1t. Children and aged people
were not excepted.
Every Polish book was con-
fiscated. Even the Bible had
to be in German. The people
had to pray in German.

High Cost of Living.
The cost of living was terribly high
in Warsaw. altho they had far more

toes and bread. Other things, you
could buy as you wished.
But no person was permitted to
send anything into Germany-that is,
no person but German soldiers. The
German officers bought up great
quantities of food, articles of dress
and other things and sent them TO
their wives and families in Germany.
But the woman with whom / stayed,
had another daughter in Germany,
and she was not permitted to send
her anything at all.
In Warsaw the Germans did not
live in the houses of the conquered
Poles, but in hotels

The Austria Germany drive against
Italy has satisfied those in touch with
the war situation that every man who
has entered the army from the state oil
Washington will see service IN Europe.
While il is believed that this latest
development in the worlds war will
only have a tendency to delay the
victory Of the Allies, it is argued that
final success will call for every avail
able soldier in the United States.
Even the poor private has way Of
finding out things, and Washington
boys now in the army centers OF the

and their friends that the crushing
blow which Italy has received means
actual service at the front for them.

KEEN COMPETITION COMING

1t is announced in report from oui
commercial representative at Toxic,
that iron has for the first time displaced
cotton as the leading import into Japan
from the United States. These two
commodities represent two-thirds OF all
American goods purchased by Japan.
Both commodities are being purchased
by Japan for use in her rapidly develop
ing manufacturing industries. Much
OF that development is due to the
demands of war. And, as a conse-
quence, when the war is over we shall
find Japan far more ready to engage US
in industrial competition than when the
war began. She will have the advantage
of wage scales far lower than we would
consent to maintain. Her hours oil
labor will be longer, and restrictions
upon child-labor will be less than in
this country. However friendly We
may feel toward the Japanese nation,
we must not over look the fact that
after the war we shall be engaged in
keen competition with many OF hel
manufacturing industries.

RehaCiOn and Apology! Not Now

The Echo has been asked to print
retraction and apology for the article
headed Selling Stock in Department
Store" As an alternative Mr.. Robert
Madison says he will institute suit for
damages under the libel law and pros
ecute the publisher of The Echo under
the criminal law for libel The pub
Usher has never done any man wilful,
malicious injury. When thru misinfor-
nation it has printed anything calculated
to do anyone an injury it has at all
times been willing to make all the
reparation in its power, either apologize
or print retraction when it islconvinc-
ed OF its error. In the instance now
under consideration it carried out this
custom by applying to Mr.. Madison
iOi lbIOltudilOu that WOulu SCI h4tl
straight, remove the impression pre-
viously formed about his occupation.
He refused to say word and referred
The Echo TO his attorney. His attorney
has so far failed to furnish any informa-
ton about the character of his clients
occupation upon which it might base a
retraction or apology, if any was forth
coming.
The publisher Of the Echo has the
very best Of reasons for believing there
is nothing libelous in the article
referred to. Still, if the article is
calculated to do some one unmerited
injury it would not hesitate TO print a
retraction and apology. as a matter Of
justice. A malicious inte1t to do
injury never existed in the mind Of the
writer of the article. He simply thought
another department store or mail order
house in Seattle would prove failure
and result in loss to the stockholders,
and thought it his duty to his patrons
to warn them not to invest in the stock.
Mr.. Madison has refused to give any
information about his scheme. Neither
can the bank give any information,
either about his reliability or his occu-
patton. We have asked eight or ten
OF those who have been asked to buy
stock, for literature or some information
that would throw light on the scheme.
None of those approached could tell
anything or had any literature that
would indicate the character Of the
proposed mail order house. This fact
does not look good on its face. A
good, honest venture can not be in
jured by publicity. If it is sound and
honest the more light thrown on it the
better it looks. II is only shady things
that remain in the dark. For this
reason some men love darkness rather
than light, because their deeds are evil.
Purely in spirit OF fairness, deny
ing libelOus intent or act, but be-
cause the Echo can not at this time
determine, in the light Of all the facts,
that Mr.. Madison is entitled to a re-
traction or apology, the same has not
been made. 1t will be pleased to do
so when it is convinced it has done
him a wrong. Between duty TO Mr..
Madison and The public the latter
comes first

BRIDGEPoRTER MADE
LINE OFFICER FROM
RANKS OF NAVY

After %. years Of service in the
United States navy, where he rose
from the ranks, earned the Bailey
medal for high efficiency in his work
and graduated from the Gunnery
schools at Washington, HugnJ. Duff
~, a Bridgeport boy, has become a
line officer in the navy, a place here
tofore only held by Annapolis grad
yates.
The almost insurm ountajble difficul-
ties which Duffy has had to overcome
are credit to his perseverance and
are particularly agreeable to his rela-
tives, Captain Thomas F. Broderick
of the are department and Mrs. James
Barry, sister, living In Orange
street. Those who remember him
as student at the Prospect street
school many years ago, will also re-
joice at his pluck and good fortune.
Duffy, who enlisted at the age of
IT, was born in this city and lived
for many years in Broad street. Upon
joining the navy he was assigned to
many types of ships and during the
Spanish-American war fought in the
battle of Manila. Later, he was plac-
ed in charge of dock construction in
the Philippine Islands for which he
was highly commended by his SUI
perior officers AS a chief boats
vain he earned such honor that he
was given the Bailey medal. This
permitted him to study at the gum
merry schools and his proficiency has
been such that announcement was
made in the navy journals last week
that he had been raised to the rank
of ensign.

PRESIDENT WILSON URGES LEADERS
OF SENATE TO RUSH FOOD MEASURE

propaganda against the bill being de-
signed to divert the enormous sums
OF money now spent for alcoholic bev-
erages to the profit of the soft
drink" makers.
Fifth: The reactionary element in
the Senate which has consistently OPP
posed any and all attempts ever
made by the government to bring
big business under its control, plus
a few Senators who are alleged to be
inspired by personal motives growing
out of patronage disputes and those
whose sympathies are not with the
governments war policy.
Almost from the day the food pro-
ject was presented to Congress one
or more of the agencies named has
been active in attempting to accom-
plfsh its defects, either by frankly ex-
pressed opposition or by muddying
the waters through the injection of
irrelevant proposals entirely outside
of the governments plan.
The most active of these agencies
has of course been the Anti Saloon
League and its allies under more or
less misleading titles. The Anti
Saloon League has been pretty fully
exploited since its attempt to make
use Of the government food plan. to
serve its alleged reform purposes
The activity of it's representatives
has divided the interest of persons
watching the food fight with fMat I
members of Congress whose official
duties call upon them to consider and
vote upon it. The Anti-Salcon
League and other reform bodies CO.
operating with 1t have appeared to
receive announcement from sources
that have hitherto been either OPP
posed TO r or 1na1nerent to it's un-
dert.a.zs.
Business interests whose opposi-
ton to the food plan has been
brought to light through recent devel-
opments appear to be willing that the
prohibition propaganda should mon
opolze public attention.
There is pretty well defined i'm
preston in executive and legislative
circles that the prohibition propagan-
da is being fnancedNto a very large
extent by the "big business interests
The Bridgeport evening farmer. [volume] (Bridgeport, Conn.) 1866-1917, 1917-07-13

whose ambitions are material rather
than moral. There is no actual proof
of this fact, though the men that
credit the thought believe that there
is confirmation for it of circum-
stantial charactr.
The fact remains that the bust
ness interests attacking the bill are
known to be openly encouraging the
extensive mail and Geographic pro-
paganda being accelerated through
out the country by the prohibition
forces.
1t Is the natural inference that, in
asmuch as the meat and produce
business, as we'll as wheat and cereal
production. will be directly affected
by the food control plan, the con-
Germs engaged in the manufacture. or
middlemen having to do with the
handling of it, are backing the Pro-
hibition fight which is by far proving
the greatest menace to the consum-
nation of the government plan that
has yet appeared.
There seems to be little question
in the minds Of well informed people
in Washington that the soft drink
manufacturers whose product has
largely taken the place of alcoholic
beverages in the South, are contri-
buting in every way to the success of
the Prohibition fight.
The debate In the Senate over the
bill yesterday was of haphazard
character. The Measure in fact was
used solely as the basis for a renewal
of attacks on the National Council of
Defense. The debate was participat-
ed in by Senators Hardwick, Reed,
Mcclellan and Brandegee.
Mr. Hardwick declared it would be
