FRENCH MAJOR GENERAL
HAS SEEN LONG SERVICE

Paris, July 31.-Major General Ma
RE Louis Adolphe Guillaumat, recent
ly appointed military governor of
Paris, achieved fame by his historic
defense of Verdun against the stupen-
dous German onslaught of 1916, by
his cleverness in a French offensive on
the Somme in which the forces under
hi scommand took 1000 prisoners, %
heavy field guns and 27O machine
guns, and by his sagacity in the ma
neuvering of French troops in the
Near East.
He received his first commission in
1884. He was made captain in 1898,
and in this rank served in the Indo-
China campaign in which he was Sc
yerely wounded. He received the rank
of general of division in 1914 after
the outbreak of the war.
He was placed in command of the
second army corps and charged with
the defense of Verdun in 1916. On
December rs. 1917, he was transferred
to the command of the French armies
of the Orient, replacing General Sar-
rail. He is SIS years old.

FLORIDA DRIVE INTENSIFIED

Florida has been setting a stiff pace
for the southeast in the contributing
of men for overseas service under the
Red triangle. Fhe. intensive cam
paign in that direction, made the more
vitality important by the plea of Gen
eral Pershing or more such welfare
aids, is to be given further stimulation
by the recent appointment of A. w.
Honeycut Of De Land, Fla, as secre-
tary of the Florida Personnel Recruit
ing Headquarters.
Mr. Honeycutt will succeed DIR. l..
R. McNair, who has been called tenn
po~sriiy to the Southeastern Army
and Navy Y. NJ. C. A. Headquarters

of wages, development of trusts,
cornering of articles of consumption,
and extensive speculation in public
necessities. The government is being
urged to adopt emergency measures
similar to those pursued by other
countries where the war produced
such conditions. 1t has been suggested
that special committees be appointed
by the state to intervene, or that addi-
tional powers be extended to those
branches of the public administration,
such as the police, hygiene, labor,
which from the nature of their func-
tons are best equipped for coping
with the evils. Comparison of prices
of various articles of prime necessity
in force last year with those ruling
today indicate that many increases
may not be attributed directly to the
war but rather to artificial factors en-
gendered by speculation, price-jug-
Cling and cornering of supplies.

Buffalo, N. Y, July 31.-One of the
greatest water development projects

an immediate production of 100000

was virtually unknown to the general
public. TIE channel will encircle tn

RUSSIA EXPECTS PROTECTION
BY GERMANY

Amsterdam, July 26.-"There is
not single German colonist in Rus
STA who places the smallest faith in
the Russian government. Our minds
are made up. If Germany does not
protect us with a strong hand there is
only one way out namely,to emigrate

This is the statement of Pastor
Johannes Schleuning who has come to
Berlin representing the interest of
of so called Wolga Germans, a farm
ing colony of seven hundred thousand
persons passing establishment along
that river.
After the Brast Litovsk peace,

Wolga colonists now ask to be as

South America Complaining About the
Lack Of Shipment Of Goods From U. S.
Claim That American Ships Come in Ballast Seek
ing Their Products When They Are in
Need of Goods From u. S.

Washington, July 31.-Commercial
relations between the United States
and South America are in a serious
condition because of the war.
The lack of shipping has caused a
decrease in the amount of manufac-
| tured goods exported to Argentina,
and the factories of that country are
unable to meet the demand. Some of
the factories require raw materials
that have formerly been obtained in
| the United States and have been COM
PEELED to shut down or greatly to
curtail their forces.
The entrance of the United States
into the war marked the end of ex-
tensive shipping between this country
and Argentina. Besides a few steam
ships some sailing vessels still visit
Argentina, according to consular adj
vices, but they are so small that navi-
cation. is dangerous and they do not
even approximate the demands OF
commerce. The most needed articles
are heavy iron castings and coal.
Argentine business men are great
ly conc rned because some of the YES
sells arriving at Buenos Aires have
come in ballast, caused, they say, by

Gently issued by the Argentine gov
eminent there are 80,000,000 sheep in

tina last year aggregated about $175,-
100000 and the imports $190,000,000.
There were 100000 head of cattle
exported, principally to the United

AS A MAN THINKETH IN
HIS HEART so is HE.
SAYS THE BOOK OF BOOKS
(Manufacturers Record. !

Manufacturers Record.)
Germany for years thought lust of
world power, lust ofSwealth to be loot
ed from others, and lust of its bestial
nature, and so Germany has become
what it thought in its heart, land
of hooters, of robbers, or outragers.
Germany is realizing in its own life
the fearful spirit of its crimes, and
now it is encouraging Immortality in
order to increase its birth rate. 1t is
planning to make its private life a
breeding farm to produce livestock to
be classed as human beings, but hu-
man being brought into existence
through lust merely to increase the
number of its people
The records of human history show
nothing so degenerate, nothing to
equal the fearful degradation of inn
morality which has come as the inevi-
table fruit of Germany's life.
1t is not the kaiser and his CLIQUE
alone which have thus thought them
selves into this he'll Of moral rotten
ness; they were not the only would
be looters; they were not the individ-
ual rapists; they merely encouraged
their people to give free rein to their
nassions for wrecking womanhood as
uthlessly as they wrecked cathedrals
and churches.
