IRON CROSS FOR HEXAMER
Says Alliance Conducted Campaign to
Defend Editor Charged
with Treason

Washington, Feb. 25.-Bullctins
distributed among the membership of
the National German-American Ali
ancc OF 1904, urging that the teaching,
OF German in the public schools be so
extended that English would come to
be considered the "forcign" language
were read to the senate judiciary sub
committee today by Gustavus Ohlinp-
er, OF Toledo, Ohio, continuing his tcs
timony against the alliance as an un-
patriotic organization. Since that
time, the witness said, the alliance has
conducted a consistent campaign in
behalf Of the teaching OF German.
Considering Bill
me subcommittee is considering a
Dill by Senator King, OF Utah, which
seeks to dissolve the alliance.
The bulletins referred to by Ohlinp-
cr were printed and bound under the
title "German-A American Alliance" and
were published before the alliance
was chartered. Some of them, as
translated by the witness, advanced
the idea that Germans coming to the
United States should "in thought, ma
turc and acts" remain German, though
taking out citizenship papers to get
the vote.
10 Defend Editor
MIR. Ohlinger testified that the al
lance conducted a campaign to raise
money to aid in the defense of an cd
itor of German language publication
IN Philadelphia, who had been indicted
Tor reasonable utteranccs; that the
bulletins failed to condemn the sink
ing of the Lusitania, or the invasion
OF Bel gium, and that at a meeting of
one OF the subordinate organizations
IN St Louis after the Lusitania sink
ing resolution was adopted reciting
that the United States Government
should thank Count Won Bernstorff for
ms having warned passengers not to

Garlick Among New Workers. Doing

Widely Known Business Man Tells

WAS GALL RUN DOWN"

In the list of the men Of New York
who have done big things i. the name
of Morris Garlick. This man IS secrc-
tary Of the Down Town Taxpayers
Association Of Brooklyn, representing
$1O,OOO,O00 in realty holdings alone
in the heart of the great business dis
trict. He was largely responsible for
Brooklyn's notsd Flatbush extension,
the great traffic artery from the new
Manhattan bridge. He is head of M.
Garlick & Co., of 181 Gold street.
Prominent in the real uplift work
of the worlds greatest city, he holds
tie deep respect of thousands with
whom he comes in contact IN business,
political, church and fraternal affairs.
Since boyhood, and for 45 years, he
has labored. He is now 81 years old.
1t is only natural that, with all his
activities, the strain should begin to
tell.
Maybe l have overworkcd," said
- Mr. Gar!ick, "but, at any rate, l be-
gan to suffer from broken rest, loss
of appetite failure to assimilate the
nourlshment l needed, and nervous
ness,' he explained. at is what the
average man calls all run down. and

felt as if l needed something to build
me, up-something that would bring
hack the strength l was losing; some
thing that would help take away the
worries, give me real appetite, tone
up my stomach and whole system and
quiet my nerves. Through friends I
heard of new medicine, Tanlac, and
decided that if it could help others, it
ought to help me, too, so I tried Tan
lac. And now," he continued-for work
is his big thought in life-"I can do
twice as much work as could before.
My nerves are quiet rest we'll. en-
JOY meals because my stomach di-
gests my food. am stronger and feel
wonderfully better"
When men like Morris Garlick en-
dorse medicine, there can be no fur
ther proof asked. He felt it was his
duty to tell of Tanlac to help others.
No other medicine ever has won such
support. Because Taniac is the re-
constructive, system purifier and
stomach tonic, supreme for weak, all
ing men and women who need more
strength, better digestion anG re-
vitalization of the nervous system, it
receives endorsement like this.

The average cotton crop of the five
years from 1911 to 1915, as report
ed by the United States department
of agriculture was 14,175,872 bales,
as compared with II, AIS, $3.50 bales in
1916 and 10,949,000 bales in 1917.
The average crop of the last two
years is, therefore, 100000 bales
short of the average for the preced-
ing five years. Last years yield was
100000 bales short of the average
for the five years from 1911 to 1915.
These figures indicate an acute
crisis in cotton production. Notwith-
standing the war, the consumption of
cotton must go on at an accelerating
rate TO some extent it is temporarily
halted in some countries, but those
countries are draining to the last
ounce their supply of cotton goods. In
this country and in Great Britain
and France and Italy, while the con-
sumption of cotton may be decreased
Tor domestic purposes, an enormous
amount Of cotton is being used for
explosives. The world is, therefore.
becoming as bare of cotton and cotton
goods as it is of foodstuffs. The pro-
duction of the last two years has been
short of the worlds needs, and when
ever peace comes the demand for cot
ton goods to fill up the existing stocks
of the world and to re-clothe the
people whose supply is now exhausted
Will make demand for cotton as phc-
nomenaily great as will the demand
for foodstuffs.
In producing cotton, looking to-
ward the future after the end of the
war, the south would, therefore, be
not only helping itself, but helping
III cIf II,
time, however, it seems to be almost
impossible for the south under ex
isting conditions to produce enough
cotton to meet the actual needs of
the hour. Increasing cost of rails
ing cotton by reason of higher
price for. fertilizer, higher cost of
labor, higher cost of agricultural i'm
plements and of everything which en-
ters into cotton production has COM
pletely changed all basis of calcula-
ton as to the cost of growing cotton.
Unlike wheat, which is harvested bv
machinery, cotton must be harvested
by hand labor, and the cost of cotton
production therefore increases more
rapidly than the cost of wheat produc-
tion.
While everything that can be done
to increase food production must be
done, we should not lose sight Of
the fact that cotton is essential to
civilization. 1t is absolutely neces-
sary for clothing, for tenting and
thousand and one things for which
there is no substitute available. An
other small crop would be disaster,
and yet it will be very difficult for
the south to plant, cultivate and
pick larger crop than the average
of the last two years. It is possible
that it can be done, but 1t will
stretch the resources Of labor to ac-
complish it, 1t is almost as vital to
the winning Of the war that the gov
ernment should cooperate for larg
er cotton crop as it Is to cooperate for
Increased wheat production.
