| The stealing of child can be com
pensated for only by the return Of the
child. Only the Pacifist and the Ger
manophile can mistake the Presidents
meaning, which was not mistaken by
those who heard him He meant that
Alsace-L Lorraine must be restored to
France and he meant that the United
States would fight until this was
achieved. 1t was at once a declaration
Of principle and a pledge of purpose.
And as to both the American people
stand with the President.
From the beginning OF the war
France has been the bulwark Of civil
cation against Teu.onism. Without
French heroism, sacrifice, victory,
Germany would have achieved world
supremacy before England was ready
or America was enlisted. Had Eng
land not permitted the German an
nexaticn of Alsace-Lorraine, Germany
could not have invaded Belgium, and
Northern France would not have been
rayaged and sacked.
Without Alsace-Lorrane France is
always in deadly pe-il. The keys to
her richest provinces are Strassburg
and Metz; holding them she guards
Lorraine and Champagne. This would
not be a reason for taking from Ger
many people who desired to be Ger
man, but Il is final reason why peo
pie desiring to be French, and who
have endured all agonies in proving
their devotion to France, should be
restored to the republic
The world cannot pay its latest debt
to France no matter what it now does.
But without France there is no securit
for democracy in this world, and with
out Alsace-Lcrraine there is no secu-
rity for France. Now, the wrong must
be righted.

GROWTH OF SAVING

Ii is mighty good thing that the
American people have something to
save. for now since there is such
great necessity of learning thrift
there is1indeed something 70 encour-
age tie saving we do We have had
the opportunity and have been re-
minded So often that it is easily dis
cernable that we are now more in
clined to sav9 sonething than ever be
-Eya,so 4}..a 70
~ IA s4Gsn ~ ~s unjust keep in mind that we
s'-'- are people slow to save We are a
20 cotton of@ spenders and we still dis
pose Of our earnings far too freely.
The saving habit is the best of all
our secondary purposes. 1t will con-
tinue to as one after another of the
war campaigns are waged.
II Ehe TEnglish have not been consid-
.fsd aEsaytfg nation, and one OF the
@s,A $, A. I, examiples OF tie effect
of patriotism on whole people was
the fact that during the year 1916, al
SSe~v--~-~~--~ss--~.'
'rfi6rgn' purchasing billions of dollars
OF war bonds, the small savings banks
i, genositSrs in England increased their
''ffbbsts' over s6o,OOO,OOO.
g.. EHss patriotic appeal to the Ameri-
can people for war savings has met
with a similar response. Statistics for
Nllt Year 1877 are not very available,
NV FepRr+a from various sections OF
nj Ntnired States indicate that mem
hership and assets in cooperative
building, or savings and loan associa-
tons, increased at least 10 per cent,
;he same rate of increase for the year
ssSBsaSd about the average rate of
increase for the last ten years.
iItFhe smalk savings bank accounts
shoE similar increase in numbers OF
Jhbcsifprs and amounts of deposits
Sales of War Savings Stamps also
ASb% a great growth of the habit of
saving.
The American people have respond
ed to the call of duty to economic and
gave. They have not only purchased
neaiNtA $8,OOO,OOOyOOO of Liberty Loan
Bonds and War Savings Stamps but
in addition they have increased their
savings as shown above Patriotism
and saving are synonymous now, and
economy is a duty. and many millions
of American citizens are doing their
duty in this particular.

Lincoln County Boy
Would Support Mother

There is boy over in Lincoln coun-
| ty that is getting off right-foot fore
most, and who has the making of a
man in him. He is only 10 years old, but
realizes the conditions by which he is
surrounded and seeks to aid his mother.
He apparently has been told that the
child labor law would prevent his doing
the thing he most wants to do, and that
is work to help support his mother.
his name is withheld simply because
it is thought he might not want it in
print beneath his story, but his appeal
may yet bear fruit, since the secre-
tary forwarded the letter to County
Judge R. r. Miller of Lincoln county
for action. The letter follows:
81 am boy 10 years old. was
born December 4, 1902, in Illinois. Now
L want to know if L am allowed to go
out and work and help support my sick
ly mother, and two small brothers which

NORTHWEST INDUSTRY
GENERALLY BOOMING
That Is Conclusion Reached
by Former Mayor During
Recent Trip

Harley o. White returned last even
ing from an extended business trip over
Washington and the Sound country in
the interests of the seed, feed and
grain business of the local firm of D.
A. White & Sons. Mr.. White found
everything and everybody busy along
| the coast and seaport towns of Wash,
1ngton, and industry booming in
general.
He reports the shipbuilding industry
and sawmills particularly busy and
| everywhere the demand is for more
Workmen. The only place where he
found surplus of laborers was at Seat
tie where several thousand unskilled
laborers were recently shipped in, but
this condition did not exist long as the
government shipped in 25O skilled
mechanics from the east on Monday
which was expected to put every avail
able man to work.
Mr.. White says the shipping faciIi-
ties at Seattle are overtaxed and the
docks and yards are congested with
freight. He stated he saw miles and
miles of loaded freight ears standing
in the yards and on sidings waiting
Tor their contents to be transferred to
vessels for oversee shipment, the larg-
er part of it going to the Orient He
said it was estimated there were fully
5000 loaded cars in the docks and
yards of Seattle waiting to be un-
loaded.
Some excitement was created about
the yards Monday night, Mr.. White
said, by the receipt through federal
secret service channels Monday of
warning against a plot to burn the
yards and docks. Every available
patrolman and sailors and soldiers were
detailed to guard the yards and docks,
with orders to shoot if anyone attempt
ed to pass the lines. Mr.. White stated
there were between 5000 and 5000
armed guards patroling the docks and
yards Monday night.
Mr. White found particular activity
around Aberdeen and the Grays Harbor
district in the spruce cutting industry.
Large bodies of men were coming into
the city every day, Mr.. White said, and
being sent to the spruce camps. He
stated that the government through
the spruce divisions being recruited,
expected to have 1000 men in the
Grays Harbor country getting out
spruce for use in the manufacture Of |
aeroplanes.

4 occasion Of the second drill of the new
salem military company. AS muster.
ing IN officer from the adiutant gen.
eral s office was not present TO muster
in the company, about all the men
could do was go through drill exercises
under their officers and talk things
over
Inc matter was brought up of volun-
teers for service in Portland to act as
guards along the docks and water front
Enquiry had been received from the
adJutant general's s office as to whether
the Salem company could furnish n
'nlnlmum of 80 men if needed. when
tne question was put to the men, 2S
signed up and volunteered their sery-
ices for period of 30 DAYS. MANY
others signified their willingness With
out signing so that if the occasion
ARISES the full quota of 80 men and
more will be secured.
Tho men serving as guards will re-
ceive 500 per month and board and
lodging The plan of serving for n
period of 80 days was suggested so
that at the end of that time those
volunteering might be relieved if con.
tinued absence from their homes or
work would entail hardship upon them.
1t will be planned to have reserve
eontingents ON hand to relieve those
who have served for period before
them.
The Salem company has been organ.
lied under federal regulations which
subject it for duty within The state in
time of emergency, and places it in
the same status as national guards un-
der the old national guard law. AL
part of the Portland companies have
already been ordered out for guard
duty around the mills, warehouses and
along the water front.
