Rockefeller Proposes
NelU Industrial Creed



there be any reason found for looking
to the future security of the world In
he waging Of a perpetual bloodless war
inspired by the same enmity, suspicious
md fears that but lately divided the
world.
Nor can the fact be ignored that in
a trade war, as IN this clash of military
force, the balance of slaughter must be
rcckcned with, since the casualties can
not all be on the other side.
Germary's Position
1T is certain that If Germany Is to
be compelled. as she ought TO be, to re-
pay the wantcn destruction she has
wrought in Belgium. Northern France,
Poland and Serbia. she must have &C
cess to the raw materials or manufac-
ture, by conversion Of which into nu-
ished products she may earn the money
necessary 10 pay her debts.
''As matter OF fact, given the frank
acceptance by Germany Of the terms of
peace which will be dictated by the Al
lies. there can be no reason for separat-
ing her economic wants from those of
the rest OF Europe. These will be sut-
ficiently imperative to use up all the
surplus foodstuffs and raw materials
that can be spared for many months to
come"
Referring to foreign trade generally,
Mr.. Farrell said: There can be no
great revival of trade in the countries
where we hope for It most unless we are
ready to provide capital for their devel-
opment We must enter into the indus
trial life of those countries, engage In
enterprises with them and create out of
their resources the new wealth from
which will come our pay

GARFIELD KNOWS BEST.

Before criticism the action of Fuel Administrator Garfield in ordering a suspension of manufacturing in plants east of the Mississippi for five days, beginning yesterday, in order to con- serve fuel, it may be we'll to realize that Dr. Garfield is in possession of more information as to the real situa ton than is the public. It was dras- tic order, no doubt. Something of the desperate situation, however, may be gained from knowledge that 100 ships were held in port because of slack of fuel.
 Garfield is honest, he's conscienti- ous, he can be neither bought nor bull dozed.
 The country must and will stand by Garfield's orders.

BOY SCOUTS TROOP
 ID BE ORGANIZED
Preliminary Steps Toward Perfect ing Organization Made at Meet
 ing Yesterday.

T. M. Hooker, Jr., was appointed chairman of the nominantion com mittee and Gordon Arnett was ap- pointed chairman on constitution and bylaws at meeting yesterday afternoon of the youngsters inter- 'ested in the organization of a boy scout troop in this city. T. c. Rob erts, boys work secretary of the Young Mems Christian Association, will be scout-master of the troop and preside over the meeting.
 Young Hooker's committee will have in charge the selecting of a scout leader and four patrol lead CTS. The committee of which young Arnett is chairman will adopt con- stitution and fix the bylaws.
 It was decided to have the next meeting next Friday night, after the regular weekly bean supper, and at this time complete organization of the troop will take place. It is very probable that the regular weekly meeting time will be designated as Friday night.
