UNITY OF CONTROL.

Unity of command at the front fog
ically means unity of control behind
the front Some more or less ten
tative steps toward that end have al
ready been taken. The most effective
example is to be found in Allied Ship
ping, although even here there is room
for improvement. That there are
great difficulties in the way of COM
plete unity Lord Robert Cecil, who adj
vocated it at the dinner in London
of the Allied Maritime Transport
Council, frankly admits None of the
free nations is ready to go as far as
Germany has gone in ordering the de-
tails of industry; nor would it be we'll
if any should. This freedom, as Lord
Robert says, gives us spiritual
strength which ultimately will secure
us victory over the enemy" In other
words, we are not to fight Prussian-
ism by Prussianizing ourselves. But
If We are TO succeed despite out free
DOM" Lord Robert adds, 1--WE must be
prepared to scrap national prejudice,
national sentiment and even, l would
say, national interests. That is essen
tial if We really propose to make the
best use of the strength which we
have" Marshal Foch would not now
be Generalissimo of the Allied forces
had not the spirit of unity at some
personal sacrifice prevailed among our
military men.
Shipping is the key of unity of con-
troll and this key we now hold. But
the more complete pooling of resour-
ces is essential if all the Allied aims
are to be achieved. Lord Robert Cecil
says truly that neither England nor
America has suffered in the same de-
gree as some of the smaller Allies,
who will therefore have to depend
upon them for assistance This is
true now, and it will be true after the
war as we'll

OUR "AMATEUR" SOLDIERS

Communication of the United States
troops in France by British and
French officers of all ranks is support
ed by official reports of their perform
ances in action. In point of courage,
physique, discipline and intelligence,
to say nothing of equipemnt, which is
admitted to be of the best, we may
say without boastfulness that we
knew what they were before they left
these shores. But war as prosecuted
under the conditions prevailing today
is new to these men, and it is even
more to their credit that in such large
number they have So quickly master
ed the trade.
IN the United States Army now
fighting in France there are large rep
reservations of regulars, NaConal
Guards and men chosen under the Sc
lective draft This means that in a
large measure our forces are made
up of soldiers who only few months
ago were wholly without intensive
training and that none of their Off
GERS before sailing had practical ex-
perience in this new kind of warfare.
They too have had to learn it.
War is not the everyday business
of the people of the United States,
but they are showing now, as they
have done before, that they can adapt
themselves to it with a readiness that
even professional miliEarists will do
well to consider.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING.

There never was any good reason
for putting ban on Christmas shop
ping. Economy in expenditure is es-
pecially desirable in wartime, to be
sure, but it is an injury to trade when
those who can afford to spend merely
hoard their money. Furthermore,
the sentiment which underlies the
Christmas gift is not to be lightly re-
pressed. 1t has a greater moral value
than ever when there are many causes
for depression. The agreement be-
tween the Council of National Defense
and the retail merchants as to the
form which the Christmas shopping
of this year shall take and the restric-
tions which shall be placed upon it
is on the whole happy compromise
between two extremes. To urge the
early purchase of useful gifts is to
dissipate every sound objection to the
expression of the holiday spirit. This
will discourage the manufacture of
mere luxuries, and at the same time
it will prevent the elogging of trans
portation facilities needed for war
work by the customary last-hour rush.
DO your Christmas shopping early
is advice which has long been pressed
upon the country, too often with little
result. But it was never more justified
than now. There will be no excuse
for not needing it.

WHY?

1t is obvious that the chief aim of
the Howard candidacy is to defeat
Hen. W. ]. Harris for the United
States Senate.
The Howard headquarters are using
advertising space lavishly, spending
more for it than all of the other can
didates combined.
And the significant fact is that most
of it is directed at Mr. Harris.
Senator Hardwick and his disgrace
faR record are briefly dismissed. Then
a TRADE Is launched on Harris and on
ais supporters.
The president of the United States
is even assaulted, in roundabout way,
because he has requested the loyal
people of Georgia to unite on Harris
SO as to insure the defeat of Hard
wick.
If Howard is sincere in his profess
ed desire to accomplish the defeat of
Hardwick, why does he center his
SIGHT On Harris?
Doesn't Howard know that by weak
enfng Harris, he adds strength to
KEariwick?
That is why hundreds of intelligent,
loyal citizens throughout the state
have lost patience with Howard and
are turning from him to Harris.

A LAW, BUT NO PENALTY.

1t is an axiom of law that the man
who violates a statute is a criminal.

laws. Civil codes thus have teeth in

that its requirements were more va

possible or wholly desirable to convict
formally the international criminals
who give the orders-or can and do
not stay them We must, and safely

take the method used to punish mu-

or indeed every hundredth man.
A law without penalties is mock

ways been that. We can eliminate
the mockery. by visiting stern pen
alties on those who have ordered its
violation. once doing it will establish
the precedent and thereby make pun

The discussion concerning details
of punishment for the Kaiser and the
German General Staff seems upon re-
lection to be malapropos. The first
point in cooking a rabbit is to catch
the rabit 1t is the first duty of the
Allies to smash the military machine
behind which the crimes of Prussia
are intrenched. Discussion of details
of punishment may serve one of two
very unfortunate purposes: it may
steel the Potsdam gang and their peo-
pie to prolonged resistance, which may
mean the sacrifice of more of the AL
lies than would otherwise be neces-
s&ry, or it may easily turn out that
a premature discussion will have the
effect of giving a vent to the true
feelings of the Allies before those
feelings may be made effective in the
actual punishment. A reserved, de-
cided. positive determination to mete
out absolute justice to the criminals
who are responsible for the horrible
crimes of the General Powers is all
that is called for now, in addition to
steeling ourselves for finish fight
until their military power is shatter-

MINES OF TURNBULL MOUNTAIN
 BY w. H. GILBERT OF GERONIMO

The history of Geronimo town itself, is interesting, as it was one of the stopping places of the historical Coro- nado expedition. and on the low hills on either side of town are the remains of ancient cities of unknown antiquity
 The early history of the mining in- dustry of the mountain, like many other early histories, is partly sur rounded with legends and hear-say stories.
 The mountain is reported to have taken it's name from an army officer, Major Turnbull, who was stationed, at least a part of the time. at Fort Good win and later at San Carlos, and is a spur of the Santa Teresa mountains.
 As far back as history goes. there has been mining carried on to a certain extent in these mountains and many believe that it was from a now hidden tunnel in these hills, that the ore for the old Ft. Thomas shelter was taken
 Owing to the animosity of the Apach- es, it was very difficult to work with any degree of satisfaction in any part of this section, until after the capture of Geronimo and the resultant destruc- tion of his band. many members of

Graham country Arizona is situated in the eastern central part of the state and its history makes interesting read ing. Situated in the heart of the Apache country; the early history of the county was one that would have been a continual delight to the read CTS of the yellow back novel.
 Tn the earlier days, the government established forts in different parts of the county and kept many soldiers in them for the protection of the settlers and the many trains of emigrants who were travelling through the state to lands farther west. Among these were Ft Grant, It. Goodwin. Tt. Thomas and San Carlos; the last three being in the Gla river valley and in sight of the Turnbull mountain. for this section of the county was the real home of the famous Apache chief Geronimo. whose name is perpetuated in the town of Geronimo; situated at the western ex- tremity of the mountain and near old Fort Goodwin. It is the present ship ping point for the ore that will soon be moving from the various mines of the district

 Among the latter arrivals on the mountain was F. A.

In fact experienced engineers have given their opinion that the largest mine of the mountain, Will be found in the foothills, of which MT. Brockmans claims are a part

 that when added in small quantities
 to gasoline an increased engine eff
