OUR INTEREST IN WORLD
POLITICS.

Now, as never before, Ameri
cans need to know foreign history
! and foreign politics. The day
has passed for us to think only Of
our internal affairs. A million and
a third of our male population
fighting in Europe is evidence
enough that we can never again
imagine ourselves untouched by
what is going on outside our bord-
ers-thousands of our men are dy-
ing in France because Of what
was going ON in Berlin and Vienna
and Belgrade four and eight and
forty years ago-things we never
dreamed of, things we would
have dismissed as no concern of
ours. Now we know that moth
ing that concerns mankind is
foreign to us. Our veal or woe
generation hence may be form
ing to-day in the womb Of events
in Peking or Calcutta. We touch
elbows with all nations-and
when the war is over and we
emerge with one of the two great
merchant marines of the world,
we shall be sitting daily on every
doorstep of the Seven Seas.
Where we visit, there we make
friends or foes. We shall be
foolish indeed if we make foes
through ignorance or unwilling
ness to learn and know.-World S

NATIONAL BANKS AND THE
LIBERTY BONDS.

The Comptroller Of the Cur.
rency has made an interesting
statement of the part the national
banks played in the three Liberty
Loans.
He reports that $6,0OO,OOO,OO
little more than ralf Of the ag,
gregate of the loans, passed
through national bank channels
By far the greater part of this
was absorbed by individual sub,
scribers. On June % only about
$400,00O,OO0 of Liberty Bonds
constituting less than 3 per cent
Of their assets, were held by ma
tional banks. At the same time
the national bank loans on Lib
erty bonds were only $457, 00O,-
600, or 2 IL per cent of their as
sets.
These figures are taken by the
Treasury Department to indicate
that Liberty bonds have been tax
en- largely by individual investors
and are being held by them.
The Comptroller Of the Curren-
cy has no jurisdiction over apd
makes no reference to the banks
Of the country other than the ma
tional banks, but it is believed
that an investigation would show
that most Of the other banks were
equally active in the loans.
Secretary McAdoo, in speaking
Of the work Of the banks for the
loans, made no distinction
between national and other banks
in praising their efficient assist
ance and cooperation, and he has
the hope and belief that
in the coming loan they will con-
tinue the policy which has been
Of such tremendous service to the
Treasury and the country.
1t is we'll here, however, toI

THE SALVAGE PLAN,

The work Of conserving the
waste materials il American
homes is now being nationally
organized by the Red Cross
Striking success had already been
achieved by local organizations
The salvage plan originated with
Mrs. Otheman Stevens, in Los
Angeles. who made it q source OF
steady income for that Red Cross
chapter. From Los Angeles, the
movement first extended to Kan
sas City, where the work was Or
ganized by Mrs. John Allan
Dougherty and quickly produced
ST 200 month for war work.
Many other communities success
fully tried the plan. Largely
through Mrs. Dougherty's urgings
at Washington, the Government
has now made the movement Off
cial and national. It will be man.
aged in the Army, by the Army,
fof the Army. If the plan sue
ceeds to expectations, the salvage
will be one billion dollars a year.
The American people have been
incredibly wasteful. But the say.
in 9 of this waste can be accomp-
lished without parismony and
with surprisingly little effort.
Here are some Of things that
housewives and householders can
lay aside for the waste collector:
Tin and lead foil. folded fiat;
collapsible paste and paint tubes;
lead, brass, copper and aluminium
waste old gold, silver, and broken
bits of jewelry; typewriter rib
bon boxes and ribbon spools; old
motor licenses; motor car and bi-
cycle tires; rubber Of all kinds;
books, magazines, and newspapers,
which must be folded once and
tied securely both ways; Burlap
sacks; clean cotton and wool
rags, tail or clippings and rem
nants; glass fruit jars, cold cream
Jars. bottles of all kinds rinsed
clean; tin cans with fitted lids
and tin boxes (no tins cans that
are opened with an opener;) old
batteries; hair switches and hair
combngs; buttons; old window
shades; old knives and forks and
spoons: clothing, furs; furniture !;
bric-a-brac; pictures. ETC.; paste
board boxes in good condition,
and innumerable other articles

UNNECESSARY PASSENGER
TRAINS ELIMINATED,

Another interesting chapter OF
the report deals with the elimina-
ton of unnecessary passenger
trains. Between many import
ant cities a duplicate and elabo-
rately equipped passenger service
was formerly maintained by COM
peting roads. Where this service
was in excess of the demand it has
been reduced by the abandonment
of one or more trains. Other un-
necessary passenger trains have
also been annulled. In the dis
trict west of the Mississippi River
an aggregate passenger-train
mileage Of 21,O00.00O miles a
year has been thus done away
with. In the eastern district IN
essential passenger trains that
used to travel &c, 400, 900 miles per
annum have also been eliminated.
Through travel is being directed
to the natural routes. The HAIL.
ing Of special trains or needless
private cars has been discouraged,
and the schedules are being re-
vised. so that closer connections
can be made. Railroad tickets be.
tween points reached by more
than one road are honored by any
route, and a universal mileage
book good in the hands of bearer
upon any Government-controlled
road is now to be had. It is sold
in units of 500 and 1000 miles al

GOVERNMENT SENDS 100000
BOYS TO COLLEGE.

The United States Government
is blazing the way for the Gov
ernments of the world in progress.
siye measures. Their latest plan
provides to a limited degree for
the College education of every
young man of the new draft age
who is now the equivalent OF a
high school graduate.
One Of the greatest disasters IN
cident to the war in other nations
has been the depletion Of the
ranks of the educated men. Prof
iting by their example our gov
eminent purposes to provide ed
ucational opportunity for all of
the young men whom it will call
to the colors. These young men
who have not had the benefit of
early educational advantages will
be given a limited amount OF
training in the trades. Those
who are High School graduates or
she equivalent will be given 81
miliar amount of the very best
collegiate training at the Govern
ment's expense.
A Some four hundred Institutions
over the country have been Sc,
lected by the Government, and
the young high school graduates
above the age of eighteen will be
educated in these institutions at
the Government expense. One
Of the institutions thus selected IS
Louisiana College, Pineyille. La.
Rineville is therefore honored a
second time in having been Sc
lected by the Government as a
center for the college training OF
it's Young men, as well as in the
establishment there of Camp
Beauregard for their military
training.
The Government invites any
Young men who is a high school
graduate or the equivalent, and
who is eighteen years old or older
to enroll as a student in Louisiana
College on September 18th. and
promises that on or about October
list he will. be indicted into the
regular military service of the
United States. He will receive
from the Government his board.
clothes, equipment, all school
fees. and $4,000 per month.
The time which these young
men will be allowed to remain IN
College is more or less limited.
Present prospects are that those
twenty years old or older will be
ordered out Of college into the
other departments of service some
time in January. The nineteen
year old boys will not be ordered
our in April. and the eighteen
year old boys will not be ordered
out until after the close ct the
session in June. When these men
are ordered out of college the
places to which they will be
ordered will depend entirely on
the needs Of ire government and
the record which they have made
while in college. The best OF
them will be ordered to officers
training camps. Some will be
ordered to Nom Commissioned Of
1icers Training Camps. Some will
be ordered to continue in College
and pursue a special line Of study,
and others may be ordered direct
" into the military camps as
private soldiers.
This il one Of the best oppor-
tunities that was ever offered to
the young men Of any country,

avail themselves Of it. A card adj

Result of Big Three Days Raid ! n

New York, Sept. New York's big
Stacker quest is over. Superintendent
De Woody of the bureau Of investi-

last only three days.
From figures compiled" said De

these three days roundup there will
have been 1900 wilful slackers from
New York and New Jersey indicted
into military service. That is 5 per
cen of the number taken into GUS
toby"
Referring to the protests against the
raids made on the United States SEN
ate floor and in New York newspapers,
De Woody said:
"The department of justice is not a
bit on the defense. 1t is absurd for
anyone to suppose that the roundup
was not carried out under definite and
specific orders, and in accordance with
law. The law provides that every reg
istrant shall carry always with him a
certificate of his draft. status"
