PLAY YOUR OWN PART
LIKE A REAL MAN.

It is a lamentable fact that
thousands of otherwise good,
loyal citizens, Of this country
have never outgroWn that boy
ish inclination to let George"
do it. They have not realized
that both themselves and
George have grown to a
mans statute and assumed
mans obligations.
In fact, we as a people have
been long accustomed to re-
gard with complacency that ia
miliar quotation, THAT which
is everybody's business is no
body's business until the very
thought has become a part of
our natures.
But We are now being rudely
aroused to the unpleasant fact
that George" is busy-too
busy to assume the obligations
that we fam would shirk. He
has also a task that is calling
for the best that is in him. In
this emergency there are but
two courses left to us-either
to bravely shoulder our load
and march with the workers,
The Newark journal., 1918-07-04

or shirk the responsibility and
be relegated to the rear with
the other slackers.
And what a world of shame
and disgrace can be compress
ed into that word Stacker"
With what contempt we have
always regarded the balky
horse, rearing and plunging
and fretting himself into fe-
yer Just to escape the task Of
drawing a load, the burden of
which would have been far
less tiresome than his silly, OBJ
stinate objections.
Thus with some people who
call Themselves good Ameri-
cans. The load they are asked
to assume would not prove at
all oppressive if taken up
cheerfully and carried patient
" and bravely.
1t isn't only the German spy,
the German sympathizer or ev-
en- the pro7German, who is
doing most to clog the wheels
of the great war machine. The
heaviest drag to that machine
is the man who Whines for
George to do the work that
even his own craven conscience
tells him he, himself, should
do. He is not only not a help
but is a dead weight because
he is leaving undone that
which his government had ev-
cry reason to expect he would
do.
# you are expecting George
to do it, take another think.
He is busy-desperately busy
and has neither the time nor
the inclination to take up the
burden you have SO shamefully
east down and abandoned.

SENATOR THOMAS
MAKES REPLY TO
COMPERS LETTER

Washington, Aug. 16.---Replying to
objections of Samuel Gompers to a
work or fight provision in the new
man power bill, Senator Thomas of
Colorado read to the senate yesterday
a letter he had written to Mr.. Com
pers, declaring enactment of such a
measure at this time is essential, and
adding:
Favor and privileges should be
unknown, as far as possible, in this
war. We are not by exempting GER
tain classes extending favors to them.
We are merely utilizing their peculiar
abilities in essentially necessary direc-
lions. AS long as they are used their
exemption should continue. When
they are not used 1 think it should
cease"
The Senator also said that while the
attitude of organized labor as a whole
had been patriotic and commendable,
unless his information was all wrong.
labor conditions in New Jersey and
New England vitality affecting the
production of war material have been
very serious, Notwithstanding the
highest wage scale in history.

HIGHER EDUCATION PROGRAM
AS OUTLINED in REPORT OF
SECRETARY LANES COMMITTEE
Plans Closely in Line With Proposal to Make the Draft
Age Is to 45-mportance to the Government Is
Pointed Out.

Closely in line with the War De-
partments recommendations to make
the draft ages IS to As, with provi-
sion for training of the younger men,
is the report of Secretary Lanes spe-
cial committee on higher education
and industry,just made public, where
in the Nations need for technically
trained men is defined and a specific
higher education program urged.
The committee, which consisted of
Fuller E. Galloway, a financier of La
grange, Ga, Samuel M. FELTON,, direct
or general of military railways for
the War Department, and President
E. a. Alderman, of the University of
Virginia, points out how essential it
is, if the governments far-reaching
military plans are to be carried out
successfully, that the processes Of
higher education be maintained at
the highest possible efficiency-espe-
ciallly those having to do with the
future supply of men and women
trained in scientific, and technical
subjects, including teachers in these
fields
That it is impossible to exaggerate
the Importance of engineering knowl-
edge and skill, in the broadest sense,
is the judgment of Secretary Lanes
committee, not only directly in the
conduct of military operations, but
indirectly in the essential war indus
tries, including agriculture. The re-
port says:
'"The engineering problems con-
fronting the United States are in
f1nftely greater than those of any
other of the other of the great ma
tons. For an average distance of
more than $50 miles, across the con-
tinents and the seas, we must trans
port all of the men, munitions and
supplies which are to represent us
in this great struggle. Furthermore,
the central powers prepared them
selves for this conflict over a long
period Of years, and by this means
determined its character to their own
advantage in large measure. The less
by our allies of men of highly special
lied training in the early stages of
the war, and the difficulties in the
way of recovery, leave this nation in
the position of trustee Of the only
remaining sources of supply"
Pointing out how the War Depart
ment has already taken steps, through
the establishment of the student
army training corps, to utilize the
higher educational institutions in
training young men under 81, Secre-
tary Lanes committee makes the fol-
lowins recommendations.
The people of the United States
should recognize that the mainten-
ance of the war strength of the Ma
fy, {$u f11I j.
most efforts of all existing we'll or
ganized and adequately equipped COL
1eges, universities, and technical
schools. This means ever increasing

RABBI TO SPEAK
AT BEARDSLEY
PARK CONCERT
Noted Jewish Divine to De-
liver Address Here Sun
day Afternoon.

Rabbi Stephen S. Wise of New
York, one of the biggest drawing
cards on any platform, will be the
speaker at the band concert at
Beardsley park next Sunday after
noon. DIR. Wise is showing his patri-
otism every day by doing the hard
est kind of manual labor at SIAM
ford shipyard. where he and his son
are employed for the summer. De-
spite this strenuous effort. he has con-
scented to speak for the Bridgeport
War bureau at the Beardsley park
meeting.
The War bureau say:
His reputation in this city is such
that an enormous crowd will greet
him. His well known characteristics
as a speaker make it certain that
those who attend the meeting will not
be disappointed when he turns his
brilliant mind on the topic of war
and patriotism. Coming from a man
who believes in action as we'll as talk
it should have added weight. His
practical patriotism is a guarantee to
his audience that he is no idle talk
er, full of sound and fury, signifying
nothing. He talks, but he works also.
| He sees the war from the viewpoint
of the worker as we'll as from that
of the preacher. He has a vital mes
sage that will inspire his auditors to
greater effort and more faithful SER
vice if that be possible"
Community singing led by male
chorus will be a part of the service
and men singers are especially invited
to attend and assist in this feature OF
the patriotic service.

WELCOME ALLIES
WITH TEARS OF JOY

London, Aug. 16.---The population
Of the Murmansk region received with
joy the British force that landed there
recently, according to an Allied dip
Gomat who has arrived in London
from Petrograd.
'sOdd men and women wept with
tears of joy, crying: AT last, Russia
will be saved!'" he said. 1.-THE peas
ants, workmen and arisbocracy know
Germany is their enemy. Many men
in Petrograd who held high positions
in the old Russian army have told me-
that they know now that the only
real friends of Russia are the Allies"
The fact that girl sits out with
you on the summer hotel piazza un-
til midnight, does not prove she will
recognize you when you get in her
home town.

Head of French
Mission Here Dies

A Pacific Port, Aug. 16.---Albert
Metin, head of the French economic
mission in the United States, former
minister of labor in France and min
lister of blockade, died here at mid
night last night from a stroke of ap-
oplexy.
NJ. Metin was stricken early in the
evening, shortly after his arrival here
with the mission of which General
Paul Gerald Pau, noted French mil
itary leader, was joint head.
Physicians who attended M. Petin
ascribed the stroke to exhaustion
brought on by his journey to this
city. He was found lying uncon-
sci0us on the floor of his apartment.
He died without regaining conscious
ness.
General Pau said the body would be
returned to France at once for burial
M. Petin, who was 40 years old, is
survived by a widow and two small
children, now in France.
