there was no question that the powers
of General Robertson were being re-
duced but that the general resigned be-
cause he thought the scheme would
not work.
General Robertson himself had placed
a plan before the supreme war council
but it was turned down by the military
advisers of the government and by
every other member of the allied coun-
ell. 1t was a case of accept my terms
Or lose my services"
Lord Derby said he had done his ut
most to persuade General Robertson
o accept the new scheme, which all al
led soldiers and statesmen considered
perfectly workable. In view of his past
support of General Robertson Lord
Derby had offered to resign, but the
premier had asked him TO continue in
office and help carry out the scheme
lie agreed because he believed the
scheme could be made a success and
would help materially to win the war

U. S. Will Oppose Large
Shipments to Mexico

WASHINGTON, Feb 20.-Any at
tempt by Argentina to dispose of any
considerable quantity of wheat other
than to allied countries probably will
meet with opposition by the United
States and her co-bell1gerents. The re-
port that Mexican agents had made con-
tracts for wheat in Argentina were sup
plemented by information at the state
department today which indicated that
the agents were members of the party
that accompanied Luis Cabrera to South
America.
Contracts already have been made by
the French and British for the greater
part of the surplus Argentine wheat
and officials of the American govern
ment assume that the Argentine gov
eminent will see there is no violation
of those agreements In the event an
effort is made to move grain to Mexico
in large quantities difficulties probably
will be placed in the way Of providing
bunker coal for any ships that might
be intended for that purpose.

WOMEN WORK 5 DAYS A WEEK
No Child Under Is To Be En-

Demand of DespOt More Than
q. s. Workers Have Sought.
By GEORGE MARTIN.

Washington, Jan. 29.-An outline of
revolutionary demands to be made on
the kaiser's government by German
labor. which reached the American
government today shows that they are
asking more of the despot than Amer
lean labor has asked of its democracy.
This program may play an import
ant part in settlement of the social I'M
rest among the people in the Austro-
German empires if they get the whip
hand as a result of the social up
heaval reported under way there.
The program provides for an eight
hour day and six day week. 1t pro-
hibits all Sunday work except that
absolutely necessary and provides for
a day of rest during the week for
Sunday workers. 1t prohibits night
work except lin a few cases where it
is absolutely necessary and which can
be determined by law
Regulate Woman's Work.
Women must not work more than
eight hours a day, five days week
and not more than four hours on Sun
days or other days preceding holi-
days; must not be given work to take
home with them.
The employment of women under
this plan would be absolutely prohib-
fed at night, on Sundays and holidays,
on work which is damaging to health
and for six weeks prior to childbirth,
for twenty-six weeks thereafter and
during the next twentysix weeks
they may work only four hours day.
No child under Is could be employ
ed in any kind of work. Those be-
tween 8 and Is may not work more
than six hours a day and these may
not be employed at night, on Sundays
or holidays in mines or on work dan
gerous to health.
Calls for Board of Inspectors.
Enforcement of the laws protecting
labor in this way would be in the
hands of inspectors chosen by the la
borers themselves. Only women in

FOR COMMITTEE WORK
President McEntire of Chamber of

Put the committeeman in the spot

idea of President George p. McEntire
of the Chamber of Commerce ex-
pressed at the meeting of the com

Commerce Monday night. Many new
plans were discussed for accomplish

extinct but in its place there is a
new committee called the Industrial

that this committee undertake the
boosting of the enterprises already To-
Gated in Topeka and new ones that
may be started here, rather than
spending all its efforts on outside

DAILY ARDMOREITE
By Hamlin Garland
of The Vigilantes.

To my mind, one of the noblest
phases of this war is the outburst
of generous giving on the part of
the great merchants and manufac'
turers of America. 1t would be an
injustice not to admit this.
The impulse which leads a man to
forego salary OF $4,000 per annum
or to neglect an enormous business
for a position on the government
roll at 81 per year is magnificent. |
for one am not disposed to cavil
or criticize by saying: "lt is easy to
give up a salary of that size, because
it argues a wealth which is suf-
fcient without it" I am willing to
grant the fine spirit which leads
men like Baruch, Rosenwald, Crane
and House to give of their time and
money and genius to the cause for
which we are fighting. My only care
is to see that give in the same pro-
portion and in the same mood.
Without doubt there is less of con-
scienceless profiteering in this war
than in either the Civil War or the
Spanish War, but having granted
this, we are still confronted with the
fact that there are in America today
great many men seeking ways to
levy tribute on those who are unable
TO elude their demands.
The shopkeeper no less than the
manufacturer, the pork-packer as
we'll as the cotton grower, are in this
attack on the pockets of the con-
sumner. The process in the case OF
manufacturer articels is simple. Take
for convenient example, shoes. 1t
is true that hides are somewhat
higher that labor is costlier, but as
a matter OF fact few cents will pay
for the difference in the cost OF the
shoes on which the retailer now
asks a profit of S. He has doubled
the price, not because he must, but
because he can. This is a crime and
should be punished as such.
No one viii object to lair profit
on the part OF the manufacturer and
the dealer but to tins remorsclesS
prohteerng the government must
put stop. 1t is taking an unfair adj
vantage Of purchasers who are help
less to protest--or whose individual
protests carry no weight.
The proflteering principle extends

IN TERMS OF MAN-POWER.

That this is. to be the crucial win
ter Of the war is doubted by no
one. The initial successes OF our
army give great promise OF CON
clusion early next spring. But this
promise cannot be fulfilled without
the assistance Of every man, woman
and child behind the lines.
Thrift is the keynote. Not mig
gardliness, but the constructive
thrift which produces to the utmost
and wastes nothing of value.
lust how to draw the line in SELF
denial, in the buying OF new things,
is the difficult problem, Women,
the buyers OF the family, face this
problem a dozen times a week.
Bernard Baruch answers the
question in the current. Ladies
Home Journal very simply. You
must think OF everything in terms
OF man power. 1t is not merely y that
we must avoid consuming the ma
terials that soldiers use, like leather
and wool. We must avoid unneces-
sarily using anything which con-
sumes man-power to make it.
Nearly twenty thousand men,
says Mr.. Baruch, are engaged in
growing hothouse flowers. Ii we
will do without hothouse flowers for
the period OF the war, those men
can grow food, or go into factories.
p This serves merely as an example
of the industries which are purvey-
ors to luxury.
Doing without flowers may not
seem desirable. Nor doing without
shoes to match ones gown. But it
is infinitely more desirable that we
should speedily win the war than
that we should feed our artistic emo
tons.
Before buying any article ask
this question "Will my owning
this help to win the war;
If you can do without it, or il q
large proportion of man-power goes
into its manufacture, the answer is
no.

The Crime OF Profit@@rimg

have gone from five to ten cents
not because the extra lead costs a
fraction of a cent more, but because
to raise the price from five cents
to dime is the dealers notion OF
proper war profit.
There is some excuse for salaried
man or a wage Garner who demands
an increaes in pay. for the leaping
cost of living is forcing such de-
mands, but there is no valid excuse
for the man who merely seeks to in
crease his profits. 1t is crime
against the helpless when dealers
and manufacturers deliberately con-
spire against the families of the SOL
diers who have gone away to fight
against military despotism. Their
families must be protected against
the profteer at home.
Much can be done by the govern
ment, by laws rigidly enforced, but
still more can be done by system
of ostracism, of social condemna'
ton. We can add to the rising spirit
OF generous forbearance by recog-
nizing it wherever we find it, and we
can make profiteerng odious as well
as against the law, by openly con-
demning those who practice it.
To me there is something peculi-
arly repusive in the greedy spirit
of the profiteer. l can excuse the
German spy for it is conceivable
that he is working under orders like
soldier, | can forgive the enemy
alien for after all his heart is Ger
man or Austrian. but for the man
who takes advantage of his fellow
citizens in time OF war have deep
hatred He is to me traitor to all
that is fine and generous in Ameri-
can manhood, an enemy citizen do
ing the work of the kaiser quite as
effectively as though he carried a
gun. His action is crime and
should be so treated by society and
by the department of justice.
These are times when bravery and
generosity are in the ascendant. AS
the war goes on the need Of these
great virtues will increase, but also
and alas the opportunity for prof
iteering will augment and unless
some check is placed up it we will
all feel the pinch OF the profiteering
greedy claw. We must back up the
government in its work but we
should also characterize clearly and
strongly our hatred of the robber,
no matter where he may be found.

THANKS TO GASLESS
SUNDAYS

One evil will be checked by the
observance OF autoless Sundays.
That is the weekly descent of unin-
vited throngs upon people who have
cottages in the country.
The automobile has left no day OF
rest secure to the family that has
sought a summer retreat by stream
or lake or wooded countryside.
Friends and merest acquaintances
have made the weekend Il period OF
annoyance and real WEAKNESS.
If there is good bathing, so much
the worse for the luckless family
which has a cottage on the beach
Towels, bathing caps and other ar
ticles they forget were requisitioned
OF host and hostess. Food was al
ways expected and they departed at
the end Of a perfect day with pro
testations Of good will and promises
to come again.
One woman who has recently
moved to a farm within twenty miles
Of big city came home from church
few Sundays ago to find two big
touring cars in her yard and sixteen
unbidden "guests" comfortably dis
posed all over the yeranda. They
knew she had moved to farm and
seemed to believe that chicken din
ners grew in her kitchen garden
Somehow she did contriyc to feed
