ARMY RAINCOAT SCANDAL.

Surprise mingled with disgust
doubtless, when the average either
read the recent revelations concern
ing inferior raincoats furnished the
army by INSCRIPTIONS contractors
who connived with culpable officials
to foist these low-grade articles OF
equipment on our boys in France.
The whole country is placarded with
various posters urging economy, and
urging purchasing Thrift Stamps
collections are urged for various So
cieties, all tending to assist in the
war. The Red Cross is doing a no.
bic work; women in every walk of
life are all doing their bit, and, what
is more, it is all voluntary. Even
our little children forego their candy
and are buying Thrift Stamps. And
yet here are merchants who have been
given contracts for certain goods get
ting the price asked, committing two
crimes, robbing the government and
giving our dear boys poor clothing.
Was there any one to inspect these
coats that General Pershing condemn
ed before they were sent? What are
they going to do with the offending
contractors?
1t would, perhaps, be a proper pun
ishment for such vandals, after they
have been deprived Of all their earth
ly goods, to impress them into mill
tary service, assign them to front
line duty and send them into battle
at the earliest opportunity. The sole
objection that could be urged against
such a course is that men made Of
the material of which the ''raincoat
robbers" are constituted would run at
the first opportunity, and in view of
the incontrovertibility of this fact, it,
perhaps, would be better to execute
them here at. home, before they are
able to further damage the cause of
their country.

FUTURE OF THE HOHENzOLLERNs

There are dark days and dreary
nights ahead for the sHohenEollerns;
Unable to visit the capitals of poli-
ticaI nations, their manners will {
teriorate and the fork become mere
haunting memory. For them no big
game hunting in the Rockies or tiger
shooting in India, no merry evenings
in Paris, no trips through the beau
tiful English country with stops at
comfortable, historic inns To them
among all the dwellers on earth, will
be denied the pleasures and ladvan-
tages of foreign travel and associa-
ton with cultivated society. Truly a
sad outlook is theirs.
Will the Grown Prince be able to
dismiss from his mind the knowledge
that he has killed more Germans
than have any three of the generals
opposed to him? Will the widows
and orphans of the slain forget that
they were sacrificed to a mad attempt
to bolster up the prestige of the heir
to Germany's throne? Does this heir
to the imperial ermine realize that
his name will live in history linked
to blood and futile battles, fought
not to save the Fatherland but to save
his own weak-chinned face in the
eyes of the nation that he will yet
be called to govern-provided all
goes well with his dynasty
If Hohenzollerns were capable of
thinking and feeling like a human it
would be interesting to know what
thoughts fill their minds when they
peer into the future and wonder what
fields of enjoyment, adventure and
travel will be open to them after the
war.
