PROTECTION IN ENGLAND.

There is more than one way to protect an in
dustry from foreign competition, and British
industrial interests will be protected after the
war, even if no sweeping change be made in
England's tariff policy. Steps approved by
the government to safeguard the new British
dye industry have been explained in the house
of commons by Sir Albert Stanley, president of
the board of trade. IF the government s pro-
posals are adopted, the importation of dyes
from Germany and all other foreign countries
will be controlled by system of licenses for a
period of ten years or more after the war. This
plan was agreed upon after conference at
which the government, dye-makers and manu-
facturers using dyes were represented The old
prejudice against protective tariff may per
sist in England, but not the old understanding
concerning the freedom Of trade. The import
license system can be made powerful weapon
for industrial defense What is proposed is q
protective measure. In ten years of freedom
from unfair foreign competition, English manu-
facturers of dyes may be able to establish
business that will have no occasion to fear com
petition from any quarter.

WHAT HAS BEEN DEMONSTRATED?

Press comment on the German U-boat raid on
our shipping inclines to call this "demonstra-
tom by Germany for our benefit. A peril
nent question is: What has been demon
strated7 Another, what does Germany seek to
demonstrate? For until the maurauding sub
marines are sunk, captured or known to have
departed it is not proper to regard the dem
onstraton as complete. We already knew that
German submarines could cross to our shores
The Deutschland proved this long ago We
knew that U-boats could elude the snares set
for them in European waters, for they have
continually done this What new element is
there then in this raid? 1t seem reasonable to
believe that Germany intends to make it ap-
pear that she can embarrass our transport
service; it is even possible she intends to have
us sense threat to attack our ports and coast
cities. But If she meant actual attack on our
transports and on our coasts, why give warn
ing by sinking lot of unarmed shipping? Ger
tainly it will be much more difficult for her to
strike blow at these major factors of our war
powers now that we know German U-boats are
at hand. We must wait with open minds until
the scope of this attack is known But as it
stands, what has Germany demonstrated? Ger
tainly malevolence and desire to intimidate.
But these needed no demonstration to us or
any other nation

SOIL MEETING
is ARRANGED
Or. Cyril G. Hopkins 70 Visit Car
thage Field, Juno IS, for 4
Experiment.
Purposes. 2

The annual meeting OF the Car
thage soil experiment field has been
arranged for the afternoon OF june
18th at Q o'clock. DR.. Cyril g. Hop
kins, agronomist Of national reputa-
ton and who has charge Of the soil
investigation OF this state will be
present to personally conduct this
meeting.
The Carthage field was donated to
the state by Hancock county citizens
for the express purpose OF conducting
fertilizer experiments which would
be Of direct value to the farmers IN
the building UP on their soils. These
experiments have been carefully car
ried out since 1912 with results which
are OF very great value to all who are
interested in soil improvement
We are using farm manure, straw.
corn stalks, sweet clover. and COW
peas to supply organic matter; lime
stone to improve the physical condi-
ton of the soil and to grow bigger
crops OF legumes; rock phosphate TO
grow bigger crops and improve the
quality OF the grain; and potassium to
ascertain its value as fertilizer on
ordinary crops. Is the use of AL OF
these practical? Come to the meet
ing and let DR.. Hopkins show you
which is and which is not by the
study Of the actual crops now Cow
ing on the field. No farmer in the
surrounding country should fail to
take advantage OF this meeting to
bring his soil problem to Dr. Hopkins
and to see what Is being done on the
field.

Davenport Times: On several oc
casions the Times has attempted tc
do those residents of the community
who are of German birth or descent
the favor of pointing out to them, be
fore it is too late, that when America
is at war with Germany they, of all
persons, cannot afford to run the risk
Of being misunderstood. For the very
conditions of war demand that every
person, who does not claim to be an
enemy alien, shall make himself act
lively an American citizen, assuming
all the responsibilities of that citizen
ship without secret reserves.
1t should be clearly borne in mind
that the courts have ruled that natur.
alization papers do not protect the
citizen of German birth from intern.
ment during the war and deportation
after the war if that person persists
in any way that is hostile in word or
act to the government of the United
States.
Whether one approves oft or not
and anything having the appearance
of lawlessness is to be condemned
the fact remains and must be faced
that the temper of the people is be
coming more and more pronounced
against pro-Germanism in any of its
varied manifestations The painting
yellow of certain residences here and
in Eldridge recently is but mild
form of lawless protest in comparison
with that which will be aroused by
this growing insistence of the people
that every man and woman who enjoys
Americas opportunities shall also as
sumo his or her just share Of Ameri-
cas- responsibilities in this war;
The casualty list published yester-
day contained the names of f1fty-seven
Iowans. One of these days, as a re-
suit Of the increased fighting on the
western front, the casualty lists will
increase in length, and we shall dis
cover in those lists the names OF many
from Scott county. Think you that
the fathers and brothers of these men
who give their lives in France or who
are mangled by the shells or choked in
a most horrible manner by the dia-
bolical gas of Hun invention, will be
tolerant OF any person here who ex-
presses by acts or words any SYM
pathy for the cause Of Germany? God
help the man who fails to set himself
right among his neighbors when the
death rolls engthenl How can any
man expect another to tolerate him
If he expresses sympathy for the am
er has cast such a blight of death and
only for peace?

What shall a man do to be safe!
Get right at heart and at once. Cut
the strings binding your heart to Ger
many. Declare this is your country
and that you are for it through thick
and thin. II you have been wrong be
square enough to admit>it and declare
you have changed. Don't think you
can go around with Liberty bond tn
one hand and a German flag in the
other. Loyalty is a thing that is in
Invisible. A man must be for one
country or the other; he can't be for
both. The time has come to choose.
The way of honor and safety lies in
choosing America openly; the way OF
danger and disgrace, or internment
and deportation lies in secret or COW
ert sympathy with the Potsdam gang
and Prussian militarism.
Remember that whether you think
SO or not the cold fact is that the bur-
den OF proof of loyalty to America
rests upon the person Of German birth
or of German descent. The very fact
of such ancestry raises suspicion
that cannot be wiped out save by clear
and positive expressions OF loyalty
both by word and deed. The sole re-
sponsibility rests upon you and your
future is in your own hands. The
door Of welcome is open to all who
will enter and prove themselves
worthy of being received and trusted.
Get on the right side now while yet
there is time. Tomorrow may be too

WHEN PROGRESS WAS OPPOSED.

| 1t is an old story that the government is do
ing on its own account what it refused to let the
railroads do when they were in their owners
hands, but it is worth while to recall some in
cidents Of an earlier time, when not only the
government, but public sentiment opposed GER
tain policies favored by progressive railroad
men. Writing in the Philadelphia Evening
Bulletin, Samuel Rea, president of the Pennsyl-
vania system, shows resentment at the con-
tlnual mlsstatements by some newspapers and
individuals of the facts concerning private
ownership, and the unfair and unmerited as
pensions cast upon the motives and purposes
with which the railroads have been managed
under it, Apparently surprise had been ex-
pressed that the Pennsylvania s New York City
station is used by other roads under the gov
eminent s scheme of economy, but Mr.. Rea
shows that while the practice is new, so far as
this case is concerned, the plan to make the
most of terminal facilities is old and was first
proposed, not by the government, but by the
road.
More than quarter Of a century ago Mr..
Cassatt, then president of the Pennsylvania,
proposed that the roads approaching New York
City through New Jersey be brought into the
metropolis under conditions permitting all to
share alike in the terminal advantages. Mr..
Rea says of this incident: "We, between 1890
and 1900, perfected, with Gustav Lindenthal
the North river bridge and terminal facilities
and obtained federal charter, but the other
railroads would not agree to join, and the
Pennsylvania was left to work out its own prob
lem The Pennsylvania was ready to act in
the common interest, but the progress it pro-
posed was blocked by others Another forward
movement seems to have been prevented as
result of misunderstanding on the part Of the
public. Several years ago the Pennsylvania
acquired large block of Baltimore and Ohio
stock and, as Mr.. Rea points out, "endeavored
to bring about a true community of interests
between the two companies Unfortunately,
however, the agitation of those times finally
resulted in shaping public policy which dis
couraged all attempts of the railroads to intro
duce cooperative principles into the service of
transportation to merge combine their ia
cilities.''
Cooperative principles, lightly regarded by
the government few months ago, but now
highly esteemed at Washington, would have
played large part in the development of trans
portation if the railroads had not been hand-
capped by.unwise legislation for which mis-
taken public sentiment responsible Had
the enlightened policies proposed by masters
of transportation been accepted years ago, both
the public and the railroads would now be bet
ter off.
