AMERICA CALLS HER
SOLDIERS

The spirit Of militarism is abroad :
in our land. At the close OF the
Soapish-American war We had large
number of loud-mouthed, vehement
ratriots who declared that Cuba
should be annexed to the United States
1nat the American flag should never
be pulled down where 1t had once
gone up, and a great deal more Sill
ness to the same effect We are now
beginning to break out with rash OF
patriots who demand that America
shall police Europe and keep two or
three million men abroad for several
,ears. Even so we'll balanced man
az ex.President Taft tells an audience
that for two years. at least, we must
maintain two million men in Europe
in order to share in the work OF re-
establishment and reconstruction.
The Intelligencer has no Idea that
the American people will submit 10
This kind OF nonsense for any length
CT time The men vino make up the
bulk OF Americas armies in France
rave no real desire TO stay IN france,
or in any other country except the
United States Of America. Many or
them made great sacrifices to enter
the army. They made the sacrifices
echeerfully because they felt 1t was
their patriotic duty. They knew that
the Hun had to be beaten, and that
# was up to them to do it. They
were willing to submit to hardship. to
60 into danger and to die, II need be,
TO win a great result. but they didn't
volunteer or submit TO draft for the
rurpose Of becoming road builders and
ditch diggers, or to do poisoe duty adj
over Europe. We have men serving
s privates In France. or In suoordt-
- positions, who occupy important
bees at home Their work here
GalIs them: their families need them,
and sooner or later the American
.people will make their wishes go dis
tinctly known that they cannot be mis-
understood.
We do not need to maintain a great
army in France, Russia. or any other
part Of Europe. For all practical pur-
poses our large standing army Will
suffice. Every drafted man who
wishes to return home should be al
lowed to return at the earliest moment
that It is possible to provide for his
safe and comfortable voyage. At the
hest this work will take some months.
: It ought not to be delayed by any
foolish notions about Americas hgur
ing as q world power OF about Amer
.ca's obligations to reconstruct and tc
police distant countries.

WASTE AT WASHINGTON

Senator Thomas, one OF the leading
Democratic Senators, estimates that
sixty per cent Of the so-called war
workers in Washington are super
fuous Washington has been crowded
with commissions. boards. extra de-
uartments, bureaus and every other
combination that could find a name
AMI place for itself under the suise OF
var work. The money Of the people
has been plentiful, and has been
poured out with lavish hand. Every
lorg.haired man and short-halred wo-
MIN who came into Washington with
some kind OF a new fad has got a
hearing from the head OF the War De-
partment, the Navy Department. the
Labor Department, or some other de-
rartment, and has been commissioned
to open up an office, employ clerks and
start typewriters going. If the paper
consumed at Washington. needlessly,
were saved a good part of the paper
f. nina would be avoided. If the I'M
mense mass OF free mail matter which
has been sent out from Washington
without producing results, had been
cut off. the post office could have been
attending to legitimate business with
ont taking two TO three days to get a
letter from New York to Wheeling;
and il the .dead-head messages sent
out over the telegraph lines had been
eliminated 1t might have been pos
s;ble to have gotten kilograms through

twenty-four hours delay.

New u. S. Craft To Have 96 Feet Addition
After Passing Canal.

Detroit, July 2.-Steamships built on
che Great Lakes are TO carry To the At
lantic coast fabricated material sufficient
TO increase their length by 96 feet after
passing through the Welland Canal. That
plan has been adopted SO that larger
steamers than ever before can be built
on the Great Lakes for ocean services.
Measuring 4,20O tons in size when they
leave the yard at Great Lakes ports, the
vessels will 60 into service on the Atlantic
ocean measuring $500 tons. The lake
yards are to complete the ships to a length
of go feet. At the Welland Canal they
will be cut in two and Mt the Atlantic
coast n new section g5 feet long VIII he
inserted in their middle, giving them an
ocean going length of 356 feet. The yes
sci is 10 carry its own fabricated material
for the additional 96 feet
Another point Of interest IS that the
cutting IN two of the vessel will not inter
ferc with its power arrangement which Is
to be carried aft, thus permitting the IN
sertion Of the added length without delay
The Emergency Fleet Corporation ex-
poets the Great Lakes district this year
to produce for it about 100 vessels.
