No More Pleasure Cars,

Under the orders of the War Indus
tries Board, after January l next. the
automobile manufacturers of this
country will cease to produce pleasure
cars and will put their plants on a
basis of 100 per cent war work. The
manufacturers have already volun-
teered to curtail their passenger car
industry so per cent. This is not sufi-
cient to meet the munitions program
of the government.
This change is proper. The pleasure
automobile is not an essential. Every
car that is made uses a set of tools
that should be turning out some part
of the great mass of war materials the
government requires. 1t would be a
sad reflection upon our sincerity of
purpose in this war if through the
maintenance Of pleasure car making in
any degree our troops in France were
deprived of ammunition or other ma
terials necessary for their work for
victory. 1t is far better that the
American people walk, or use the
street cars, or put up with their old
motors for little while, than that our
Army and our allies should be lacking
in the least in the essentials of sue
cessful warfare.

many hardships, which, it is but fair
10 state, have been borne patriotically.
There has been virtually no complaint
against the necessity of taking mar
ried men for duty. Wives have gone
to work for self maintenance in q
splendid spirit of service. Positions
have been open to them in the new
industrial conditions created by the
war that have been heretofore closed.
They have discharged their duties with
high efficiency. But if it is not neces.

Man Power, Here and Abroad.

If the draft ages are e1tended-and
there is a certainty that some extern
sion will be madc-it is all the more
necessary that the men who are ex-
empted from military duty should
work the harder on the tasks essential
to the maintenance of the Army in the
field Every American must engage in
some sort of productive labor The
government is indicating the employ
ments that are regarded as essential.
it has taken over the task of assigning
men to jobs. 1t is now up to the men
themselves to work full time, on what
ever they may be assigned to do.
The full man power of America must
be enlisted in this war, at home or in
the field. No halfway measures will
serve to win the war The man who
loafs OH his job, whether it be direct
ly connected with the supplying Of the
Army or not, is aiding the enemy.
Even i'll a non-essential occupation
half hearted work is a form Of slack
ing. For the Indifferent worker throws
q burden upon some one else.
The real patriot in these days is the
man who sticks full time at his task,
whatever it is. he may burn with de-
sire to get into the fight and yet be
held at homo by family ties, or by as
signment to some other form Of serv-
ice, or by reason of years. But he can
contribute to victory nevertheless. by
doing whatever he has to do, to the ut
most of his strength and his ability. The
man who carries messages, replacing
some younger man who has gone to
che front or to a munitions plant or a
shipyard, IS doing his bit, his best, if
each day he does the maximum work.
As the Army ranks are filled with
additional thousands the men who re-
main ont OF uniform will bear q
heavier and heavier burden Of re-
sponsibility. They must shoulder it
manfuHy ana with just as much pa
triot1c zeal as those who take up arms
and face the enemy in the deadly fight
ing over in France. And to the extent
that they do this, America viii bring
'he war to an early end.
Evening star., 1918-08-11

backward rapidly, in q Few weeks-the
fighting will be in Germany itself.
Now the allies should notify the Ger
man government that when the war
is being waged on its own territory, a
German town will be demolished for
every French and Belgian town that
has been sacked and wrecked, Ger
man residence will be razed for every
dwelling that has been burned and
blasted by Hun forces-that, in short,
-eprisals on a large scale will be prac-
ticed.
There should never be any descent
by the allied forces to the depths Of
cruelty and brutality and criminality
in the treatment Of the inhabitants Of
Germany that have marked the Hun
invasion and occupation Of Belgium
and France. There should be no mur-
ders, no mutilations, no outrages, no
enslavements. But Germany should
be made to pay, in material losses.
for every case of wanton destruction
committed in France and Belgium.
Only such penalty, proclaimed in
advance, can have the least effect upon
the German official mind.
As long as there was strong Ger
man offensive and a successful German
defensive in the western country such
threats Of reprisals would have had NO
effect. But now that the Hun armies
are in retreat, are fighting obviously
a losing battle, are giving ground with
every fresh allied offensive, with prep
arations for defense in the Rhine val
ley, the menace of an application of
the Mosaic law may cause a change of
heart, in fear. But in any case this
should be the definite policy of the
xHied powers.

War News and the Liberty Loan

In short while Congress will be in
action again. Very little has been
heard from or about those senators
and representatives who went home
when the recess began. But fence.
mending is not necessarily a noisy per.
fornance. It is sometimes done very
quietly, and in the dark of the moon
SO that much may have been accom-
plished in that line without taking the
public into confidence.
It has been a good time to talk and
listen to talk about the war. Legisla.
tors and constituents alike have been
following the latest war news, and
doubtless felicitating one another over
its character. The compliments paid
to the American soldiers have made
agreeable reading.
And this suggests that maybe the
successes just achieved, with others to
follow, on the firing lines in France
will act as the best appeals in the
approaching liberty loan campaign
They will take the place of stumpers
if senators and representatives. are
detained here at work on the revenue
measure, and Secretary McA6oo finds
it inadvisable to tax his voice again
there will be inspiration in the knowl-
edge that the loan is in support of q
war in which American troops are dis.
|tinguishing themselves. Their gun
fire is being heard in every American
community, and wherever heard is
acting as q hracer Of war sentiment.
The speeches made at the resumed
session will probably be the more in.

has taken. New texts will be present.
