Why We Fought

Clarence Poe in the Progressive Farmer very clearly
sets forth the fundamental principles for which we
fought He enumerates them in this order
Cd The Sacredness of Promises; the duty of men
and nations to keep their word no matter Whethef IL

taity; the duty of to fight fairly and bravey, to
show regard for childhood womanhood and old and
to take no mean advantage of the weak

SUGAR SITUATION REVIEWED

According to Charles L. Hays, writing in
the Chicago Eve2ing Post of February 16,
sugar conditions in this country should be-
come much easier in the near future, and sup
plies should be ample to meet the necessities
of consumers. This does not mean that there
will be any surplus. Saving will still be
necessary, so long as this nation is at war
and must supply other nations But with
necessary economy, there should be enough
to go around among Americans and their al
lies.
Cuba has come to the rescue, and the large
crop Of the island is now being placed on the
market ,i
Federal regulations of sugar began last
August. 1t so happened at that time that
just before the American beet sugar crop be-
came available, the stocks on the eastern sea-
board had become virtually exhausted, owing
to shipments abroad; the situation was ag-
gravated by scare among consumers, which
led to boarding.
the market-it is only 100000 or 100000
tons compared with our annual consumption
of 100000 tons-it had to sweeten practic-
ally the whole country. The Louisiana cane
sugar crop came along about that time, but
it had little effect. Hawaii also contributed
a bit; but the domestic beet sugar crop had to
bear the heavy burden. Western sugar.
which usually does not go east of Buffalo or
Pittsburgh, was hurried into the eastern
states, and even Colorado and California sent
several hundred thousand bags to the At
lantic coast.
Then, in addition to all this, the blizzards
set in, and transportation was rendered most
difficult. Shipments were in transit five or
six weeks, over routes ordinarily covered in
as many days. That brought the pinch from
which the trade is only now emerging.
The result of all this, is that the western
beet sugar crop has practically all been con-
sumed. It is now up to Cuba. The island,
however, is grinding one of the largest sugar
crops it ever produced d-about $500, 900 tons.
On this America and her allies must depend
until next fall, unless sugar can be brought
from Java and there again shortage of ships
presents serious obstacle.
The theocrat. [volume] (Zion City [i.e. Zion], Ill.) 1914-1949, 1918-02-23

that promises to prevent any such struggle
occurring again.
"The first thing to be done is to decide
definitely what laws we shall try to enforce
through our league. | doubt whether it is
yet possible to induce the nations of the world
to put themselves completely under control
of any international organization. Many ma
tions would still reserve the right to defend
for themselves.
ri do not believe that feeling will be found
to have completely vanished at the end of this
war. It may be that we shall be unable to go
further at first than to lay down the dictum
that no nation shall engage in war until the
matter under dispute has been submitted to
international consideration.
Finally, would say that although a'league
Of nations to be perfect should embrace all
nations of the world, it may have to begin
with more restricted membership, to insure
that only those nations which sincerely favor
it shall be partners"
Questioned with regard to disarmament,
Lord Robert declared it to be his belief that
disarmament would naturally follow the de-
velopment of a successful league.
The editorial writer of The Chicago Eve7a-
ing Post, in commenting upon the matter,
says:
"The dream of league of nations has be-
come an issue in practical world politics.
Lord Robert CeciPs announcement that the
British government is considering a. plan of
his devising marks distinct step forward in
the realization of the dream.
"In principle, the league of nations has
been approved by statesmen on both sides of
Europe's battle line. It has become an
article of faith in the creed Of America. Not
until now, however, has any. old-world gov
ernment ventured to make it matter for
consideration in detailed terms of practicable
ity."

UNITED STATES OWES FAR LESS
THAN OTHER NATIONS

According to statement issued from
Washington, the national debt of the United
States in July, 1914, was $968,OOO,OOO; to-
day, it is $7,0O0,O0O,00O. In 1914 the ma
tional debt was $9.68 per capita, now it is
$67.5O per capita.
The national debt of the United States
today, however, is less than the per capita
debt of England before the war by $40; of
Germany, by $3.50; of Italy, by $6.10; of
France, by $100. 1t is said that if the war
ends in 1918, the United States will still have
national debt actually less than that of
France prior to the war;
