THE GERMAN APPEAL AND THE JOKER
IN

INIT.
| German women are NOT appealing to American
women to supply them with shiploads of free food.
Read their appeal
1t is for the release of railway cars and locomo-
tves to be surrendered to the allied powers under
the armistice terms.
The German women argue that unless these
|cars and engines are left in German hands, food
supplies cannot be brought from German farms to
German towns and cities for distribution, in which
case starvation is likely for hundreds Of thousands
half famshed on that scientific war diet which
were told while back was such good thing for
the over-fed peoples of the world.
The long, four year war taught us all that you
can't trust anything that comes out of Germany.
It's all camoufage. Nothing is true, nothing is
holy, nothing has good faith.
What cunning scheme is behind this appeal
of the German women, an appeal SENT TO
AMERICA, ignoring Commander-in-Chief Foch?
The cars and locomotives requisitioned from
Germany by the terms of the ar1nistice are the
same cars and locomotives that moved German
troops from front to front and up and down the
lines in bewdering numbers and with bewildering
Speed all through the war. The same cars and
locomotives tNdL cdfTleu u Tie IllllloS VI He1uAd
troops their enormous supplies of food clothing
camp equipage, ammunition and guns. The same
cars and locomotives that hauled from France and
Belgium and Russia huge loads of lumber, coal and
iron ore to make shells and guns and airplanes.
The same that bore billions of dollars worth of loot
from invaded territories back into Germany
These cars and locomotives did not carry food
from the farms to the towns for four years, and
yet the populace didn't starve Where are the
cars and engines that performed that service for
four years?
The allied war council that dictated the terms
of the armistice also adopted resolution to pro-
vision Germany against starvation this winter
President Wilson in his speech to Congress said
that the allies and Americans are already organ
lied to feed Germany as they organized to feed
Belgium. IT. Il
Herbert Hoover is today enroute to Europe to
start this humanitarian work. If he finds that
those cars and locomotives are needed in his task
you can depend on it and he'll get them.
Enough said.
Some day we may forget how tickled were the
German people-women included-when the Lusi-
tania was carried down with it's precious burden
of our women and babes Some day we may for
get the peasurable thrills the people of Germany
felt when hundreds of women and children were
blown to bits in London and Paris by Zeppelins.
But we're not chumps enough to be taken in any
more by German propaganda and cunning. We're
not quite certain what's the game in this locomo-
tive-and-car appeal but we know it's a trick.

KEEP THE SCHOOLS CLEAN!

KEEP The SCHOOLS CLEAN!
Americans must Immediately realize the I'M
portance of the study of French and Spanish Ian
guages and literature.
They must be alert against any reaction to the
study of German speech and textbooks.
The schools have been purged in large part. The
process must go on to completion.
These things are even more essential now that
the war is won than when it was being fought.
Americans need more extensive knowledge Of
French to reap the benefits of that closer kinship
of aims with France, made real by the war, and
for business reasons And they need Spanish to-
meet the trade opportunities in South America
torn from German clutches.
German is not needed. We can't trust German
literature for generation. 1t will take repent
ant Germany half century to purify the poisoned
wel-springs of its own thought And German
broken up into lot of angling little states isn't
likely to be serious trade factor in the world for
some time to come
The work of revising American educational
systems and standards to meet the new needs and
conditions must go on.
And it never will be complete until Philander c.
Claxton, the Gernlan-loving United States Com
missioner of Education is driven into abdication.
His job should be filled by man alert to the spirit
of new time. -

NEW STUFF.

There's reaction and reaction.
For example, there's reaction from autocratic
to democratic methods for doing things.
That's good stuff It's American majority stuff
too.
Contrary minded persons please take notice in
time. Get off the track, there!
Then there's reaction to the rule of the few in
public and general affirs.
That's old stuff. No more Of that, please.
The new stuff is the all get-together doctrine.
In the war we were all comrades all Americans.
1t was one for all and all for one and everybody
for the job. And so the job was done and well
done at that. ,.
In peace it must be the same. We must be "a
John Thompson's BRAIN" with no favorites in the
family, all the candy and nobody spilling the beans
between the kitchen and the table.
Pass the good stuff along.
That is the way to celebrate the end of war;
There were no slackers in the peace parades.
There's no shortage in the glory output. Take
all you want.
Next disarmament proposal won't meet any
Teutonic objections.
"It's madly glad world, my masters" is the
proper modern reading.

SAYS HIGH line
CANAL, SOLUTION
Would Relieve City From
Fuel Costs, Says Hill;
Predicts Big City.

That the price Of coal and oil will
probably remain at the present high
marks for many years to come and
that the construction OF a high line
canal would therefore prove a pay
ing proposition, was the result OF pre-
liminary studies made by Louis c.
Hill. engineering expert here investi-
eating the high line canal PROPOSE
ton. Mr.. Hill appeared before the
University club at its weekly meeting
Tuesday noon and delivered a compre-
hensive talk on the plan.
He said he had investigated the
past growth of Ell PasO and had con-
cluded that in 1920 there would be
about 10000 people here and in 1925,
about 125, 600. Ten years ago, he said.
the matter of the high line canal was
investigated, but at that time. with
the proposal was not practical from
a business standpoint High fuel
prices today make the proposition
take different light to him. Sixteen
or $4,000 horsepower may be devel-
oped by the canal, he said. and could
be delivered and sold in El Paso at a
profit, without taking much from the
water supply
Would Make City Beautiful.
He said visitors in this city are i'm
gardens are scarce, and suggested
that high line canal would remedy
