PREPAREDNESS.
By Edward w. Pickard of The Vigi.
lantes.

The great war, whatever may be its
effect on the fate of dynasties and on
national boundaries, is certain to be fol-
lowed by a 'leyeling' process wider than
the world has ever known. Already the
movement is well under way in many of
the countries of the old world, and its
spread to the new world is inevitable
The insistent will of the great mass of
the people is imposing itself on the gov
ernments of the nations. Where it is not
expressed by their legislative representa-
tives, it viii be given voice more directly.
The ancient fiction that there are no
classes" in America has long been dis
carded, but before many years we will
have approached much nearer to that
ideal state of equality The nations that
are best prepared for the coming change
will suffer the least disturbance from it,
The United States now has under con
sideration a plan potent to prepare it
universal military service.
In the working of this plan the young
men of all stations of life viii be brought
together on terms of absolute equality.
the sons of the farmer, the miner, the
artisan, the professional man, the CAPT
talist, the congressman. will drill togeth-
err, hike together, dig trenches together,
mess together, sleep together, and no
man will be better than his comrades. !
In this close association they are bound |
to thresh o,A their differences, to learn
one another's needs and views, and from !
this must come mutual respect for vary |
ing opinions. AT the end of their term of |
service these young men will return to
civil life with a knowledge of their fell |
low citizens such as their ancestors never
have had.
What the people of America want they
can have. The whole country, rather than
Congress or any other administration,
was to blame for our lack of prepared Il
ness for the war. Universal military 4
service is the great preparedness program
Tor after-the conditions. The whole
country will be to blame if il is not
adopted.

ONE WAY TRAFFIC.
Police Commissioners to Get Views
 of the Merchants.

Before making changes in traffic regulations so as to establish one way traffic at the center of the city, the board of police commissioners will hold a public hearing for the pur- pose of obtaining the ideas of the business men on the subject.
 The police commissioners have before them a proposition to divert south bound traffic on Main street by way of the west side of Central park leaving the east side of Main street free for north bound travel. This routing might affect business and so Chairman King has decided to ob- tain the views of the merchants. Possibly some new ideas on traffic conditions may be obtained. The hearing will be held in the mayors office at city hall, Friday evening at 8 o'clock.

SUNDAY SAVING OF GASOLINE

Public opinion proved all potent in
seeing that the request of the United
States Fuel Administration, that plea
sure driving of automobiles be discon-
tinue1 on Sundays, was generally
needed.
In several cities the boys made life
miserable for motorists who failed in
their duty. In some instances, where
autonobilists ignored the request and
displayed flags on their machines,
these emblems were removed, with
the contention that anyone who so
failed in their patriotic duty had no
right to display the flag
In many places the police took
hand by requiring all motorists to ex-
plain their purpose for using cars on
Sunday. The newspapers led public
opinion by the manner with which,
without exception, they criticized
those who used their cars.
