COLORADO SPRINGS, May 81
In a patriotic speech delivered by c.
A. DeVore, member Of Electrical
Workers Union No. 113 of this city
during the Red Cross campaign, these
forceful sentiments were expressed:
1.-THE list grows longer-think Of
this, Mr.. American Citizen. There is
leak some place and the only cure
is a rife bullet We are not in this
war for the defense of democracy, in
a broad sense, alone; We are there to
defend our own democracy. That is
why the splendid mothers and fathers
of our brave boys are steeling them
selves to meet the news that may
come to them at any time, that your
son has given his life for his country
And now we who are left at home
are to see that not a straw, an action
or even a word is placed SO it will
further the cause that means we are
to lose a son, brother, father. sister
or dear friend in this great battle for
world peace.
German Leader from He'll.
1.-The great American people do not
call the German people their enemies
by choice. Remember this. The Ger
man people are those who made the
dec sion. They seem to want to fight
for the leader from hell and when
they themselves see the great mis-
take they will do as we are doing:
Never give up till the entire world
is free from kaiserism, which takes
in all the worst of everything we can
mention.
There are worse things than death,
one of which is TO live in a world
dominated by murder, thuggery, rob
berry, torture. rapine and all the So
called kultur Of the Prussian military
system.
There can be no compromise, no
quitting, the American people are not
built that way. II is true that they
are slow to enter, their actions are
weighed carefully. but when the de-
cision is made il is carried thru. We
cannot stand for any brakes to be
even frightened on our progress; no,
not even by anti-Americans, whether
they use the street corner. a private
hall, back alley, not even if IT is
pulpit in house of God, where the
stain is to fall.
Must Wash OF the Blood.
"The American people are willing
to shake off the hand of all people,
but there is one demand we make
the blood will have to be washed of
first. IL we are to love our enemies,
what is this love to be? Shall we
allow them to destroy themselves fol-
lowing a leader who does not care
how many of their lives are wasted in
an unjust and horrible cause, or are
we to try to correct them, even il at
the point of the sword? Are we sup
posed to let our families be murdered

HEADS OR FEET?
By ROGER W. BABsoN.

Last Saturday night 1 was waiting
for a friend in a Gloucester shoe
shop. While there two factory work
ers came in to buy a certain kind of
slipper. The storekeeper had the right
kind, but not just the right size.
DO you know" said one of them,
that we have been to five shops this
evening to get fitted to slippers? One
shop has the right style, but the
wrong size, and another has the right
size, but the wrong style. What are
we to do?"
After the couple went out the boss
said to me:
"How much better off we all would
be if we tried as hard to fit ourselves
to our jobs as we try to fit ourselves
to our shoes. But then 1 guess that
our feet have more sense than our
heads. Unless our feet are fitted they
ache, blister, and finally kick. Our
heads are too good natured."
Every time l now pass a shoe shop
l wonder why there are so many
places where people can be fitted to
shoes and so few places where people
can be fitted to jobs.
Not only should there be more en-
ployment offices to help people who
are unemployed, but there should be

MOONEY MAY HANG
RESENTENCED BY JUDGE GRIF-
FIN IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Prisoner Ordered Removed to San
Quentin; Only Hope Now Rests
With Pardoning Power of
Governor Stephens.

A press dispatch from San Fran
cisco under date of Tuesday, May %,
says: .
Thomas ]. Mooney, convicted of
murder in connection with the pre-
paredness parade bomb explosion here
July %, 1916, was again sentenced to
death today. The order made by
Judge Franklin A Griffin, who pre-
sided at the trial. was that Mooney
be removed to San Quentin prison
within ten days, and there hanged
at a time to be determined by the
warden, but not less than sixty nor
more than ninety days from this date.
Judge Griffin did not amplify the
merely saying that the law imposed
a plain duty on him. Mooney showed
little emotion.
This action takes from the courts
of San Francisco county a case which
has occupied much of their time for
the past two years, and which has
attracted international attention. Or
ganizations as far distant as Ru- ia
have sought to intervene in Moneys
behalf.
Moneys fate now rests with Gov
ernor William D. Stephens of Cali
fornia, who has a pardon petition be-
fore him, and request from Presi-
dent Woodrow Wilson for executive
clemency, this request being based on
findings of federal commission tts
possibly perjured testimony-or at
least questioned testirhony-contrib
u..eId to Moneys conviction.
Mooney was taken into custody a
few days after the bomb explosion,
which resulted in the death of ten
persons, and inflicted injuries on thir-
ty-eight others. He was convicted in
February, 1917, and since that time
tn ecourts have had constantly before
them various appeals, applications for
writs, and other proceedings in his be-
half
A former death sentence against
Mooney was nullifed because an ap-
peal was pending when the date set
for his execution arrived.
Warren K Billings, another defend
ant, was convicted and sentenced to
life Imprisonment Israel Weinberg,
a third defendant. was acquitted. Mrs.
Rena Mooney, wife of the condemned
man, was tried for the murder of one
of the bomb explosion victims, ac-
quilted, and subsequently, admitted to
bail on 9th, untried charges.

doubted mastery of the air, and unity
of command under Foch-are all n
the hand of the allies.
yet Hindenburg and Ludendorff
are about to take the chance. Why!
There is only one answer: Because
they can not do otherwise Despite
their victories against the weaker al
lies, they have failed to beat down
the principal forces of their opponents.
Now by dread of the future-which
can be spelled in the one word, Amer
ica'-and by difficulties at home, they
are at last forced to make their final
throw against odds for defeat or vic
tory"
Addressing labor meeting in Lon
don, Winston Churchill, British min
lister of munitions, made this inform
ing statement:
I'm the present battle the Germans
are attempting to destroy armies
nearly as numerous as their own and
quite as well armed.
"Altho the German commanders
declare their readiness to sacrifice
million men, or, if need be, million
and half, the French and British
armies will not be overcome. They
will maintain a firm front turnout the
summer, using their deadly weapons
upon the German masses and husband
ing their own strength. Meanwhile
our kith and kin from the United
States are coming to our aid as fast
as ships can steam, our navy Is cop
| ing with the submarines, and our air
men see mastery of the air in view"
From Washington comes the in
| formation that despite the brigading
of our troops with those of our allies,
General Pershing will probably soon
be commanding an army of Ameri-
cans, French and British. In the New
York Tribune we read:
"As if exemplifying the unity of
command and action into which the
United States and its o-belligerents
have entered, it became known here
today that whenever American troops
| predominant in the brigaded divisions
as the process goes on, these divisions.
| under present plans, will be turned
over to General Pershing's command.
This plan would accomplish sew
eral things which the military author
| tiles consulting upon it regard as very
desirable. 1t would rapidly increase
the size of the American fighting COM
mand on the battle line, it would con-
tribute tremendously to the spirit of
unity and concerted effort, and at the
same time, instead of holding large
numbers of American troops behind
the lines while training, would sur
round them with seasoned veterans
and under actual battle conditions
school them to be rebrigaded later
with fresh American troops coming
| to France"
But while welcoming these various
| indications that the odds are now in
our favor, we are warned by high
of;,ar IF the niles that sthere has
been no more insidious propaganda
than that which tends to seduce pop
ular opinion in the entente countries
into false sense of security" And
Earl Reading, British high commits
sioner to the United States, last week
assured New York audience that
"the crisis is not passed, and it never
will be passed until the victory is
Won"

Job shops" to help people who are un-
happy.
Industry today is only about 20
per cent efficient because the great
mass of people are unhappy at their
jobs; they are working at something
for which they are not fitted.
The future of America depends upon
making it possible for people to be
fitted to the jobs and for jobs to be
fitted to the people. Then and only
then will people be happy and eff
cient.
This war is opening new chances for
men and women with brains, ideas
and ambition. Almost every live con-
Germ is now doing some work differ
ent from what it ever did before.
There are opportunities for you in
the place where you work that never
existed before.
Are not you fitted for some of these
new jobs where you work? Never
, mind if the job is a little harder or a
little dirtier provided you're fitted for
it. Size yourself up. Think out what
you are good at and what you are
poor at Then write your concern
letter, and tell them the truth.
