IS THE DEVIL SICK?

Germany desires disarmament, thorough going disarmament! Surely, the Devil must be sick indeed? Not at alI the Devil Is in peculiarly good form. Disarmament applied not merely to land forces, but even to naval forces; that harmless parcel is loaded with dynamite. Germany will reduce her army if Britain reduces her navy What could be more in herently reasonable? Cut both arms in half; will not the relative positions of the two countries be the same? No, Britain will be greatly weakened, relatively. An army is elastic; c hundred thousand men are quickly augmented to a million. A navy is inelastic; years must elapse before its tonnage can even be doubled. There is, no doubt, a measure of land dis armament that would be fair offset to given measure of naval dIE- armament But who will find this measure? Won Payer has no inten- ton of trying to find it. All he wants is to put Britain in hole. He wishes the disarmament project to fail, and to fail apparently by Britain's fault. This is not mere inference from von Payers curious emphasis, applied even to naval forces" It was well known in Washington before we en- tered the war that Germany intended eventually to use precisely this method of exploiting the disarmament idea. It was too good for Bernstorff to keep

JEWISH FEAST DAY
 OF SUCCOTHIS
 CELEBRATED NOW

Ever since the days of Moses, who was the original Food Administrator for his nation, the Hebrews have been wont to celebrate Succoth, the feast of Tabernacles, week set aside at the, end of the harvest for thanksgiv- ing to the Lord for the past harvest and supplications for bountiful har- vests to come. Succoth was first eel ebrated when Moses led the Jews out of Egyptian captivity. The wander CTS stopped long enough to build lit tie huts of tabernacles, which they called Succoth and for a week by pious prayers and supplications they gave thanks for the plentiful har- vest and their delivery from Egyptian bondage.
 The observance of Succoth this year began last Friday and lasts un- til Saturday evening, Sept. 29. Sev- eral prominent Hebrews in Connecti- cut have called the attention of the Food Administration to the propriety of special observance of Succoth this year in view of the record breaking wheat crop in this country. At the office of the Food Administration it was readily conceded that the He brews of Connecticut could in no way observe the war time spirit of the Food Administration than by heart felt thanks for the bounteous wheat crop of 1918 and by earnest petition that this and the crop of 1919 may create sufficient reserve to ward off any possibility of America and the AL lies bein in such desperate straits for food stuffs as they were in the spring of 1918.
 The last day of the Succoth is to- day and this day being the most i'm portant of all, the Food Administra- tion expressed the hope that Hebrews
 in observing the feast, would be mind iul of the war time problems of the Food Administration regarding pro- duction and conservation of necessary l .ood stuffs.

GIBSON ACCUSED OF ESPIONAGE

Paris, Sept. 28.-Nettled by the af- of Hugh Gibison's book, ''The Rape of Belgium" in Norway, Sweden and Denmark, the German Foreign Office, through it's official propaganda bu- reau, has accused the author Of es- pionage during September and Octo- Der, 1914.
 MT. Gibson at that time was Secre- tary of the American Legation at Brussels. His recall from his post at Brussels during the German occupa- ton was requested from Washington by Baron von der Lancken, German Civil Governor of Brussels. He is now Paris representative of the Com mittee on Public Information. An article in the Politiken of Co., penhagen states that on numerous oc- casions Gibson took advantage of his diplomatic immunity" and the pass ports given him by Won Jarotsky, Vor Luttwitz, and Baron von der Goltz al | lowing him to cross German linea to l carry information to the Belgium an6 Allied armies.

CORN BOXER HAS
 CAUSED DAMAGE
 TO MASS. CROPS

In--and around Boston there is an area of nearly 400 square miles that is Infested with very destructive insect known as the European corn borer, Pyrausta futilalis Hubner, which threatens the corn growing in- dustry of New England. Gov. Hol- comb has issued a proclamation pro- hibiting the transportation of corn on the ear or corn stover from Massachp- setts into Connecticut and also simi- lar shipments from any other state if it passes through Massachusetts en- route, without first obtaining written permission from E. H, Jenkins, Direc- tor of the Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station at New Haven and such permission must accompany each shipment.
 Shelled dry corn or cooked and pre- l served corn products are not affected by the quarantine regulations. The from one statepolnt is the insect may be transported from one state to an other in ear corn, corn stalks and other parts of the plant and in con- sequence of this fact Connecticut Is Quarantined against such shipments either from or through the state of Massachusetts. There is special dan ger in shipping green sweet corn, sweet corn on the cob and corn stalks
 used as packing material for heavy
 pottery and other manufactured ar ticles.
 l According to Dr. W. E. Britton State and Station Entomologist, the
 European corn borer is very destruc tive insect The larvae bore into the
 stalks and ear of the corn plant. Of ten, several borers are at work in the
 same plant, and they go from one stalk to another. Two and probably three generations occur in season
 and the larvae pass the winter fl
 their burrows in the stalks. There i!
 no easy remedy excepting destroying
 the infested plants. When corn i cut and packed in the silo, or whel
 green corn or stover is fed to cattle O
 hogs, the borers will be destroyed. l corn Is allowed to stand in the fielt
 until the following spring or summer the borers may emerge and attacl
 other plants. Not only is corn in
 fested but the pest will attack barn . yard grass, pigweed, ragweed and number of other weeds and gardel vegetables if growing near the tnfest ed corn. The proper disposal of de 5 struction of all such food plants is 1, the utmost importance.

ROOSEVELT OPENS
 LIBERTY LOAN DRIVE

Baltimore, Sept 28. - Registration Of young women as well as men for industrial training in peace times as well as in war times was urged by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in speech here today opening the Fourth Liberty Loan Campaign.
 Touching on some of the things that we should do at once in con- nection with the war, Colonel Roosevelt declared one of the first should be to stop all profiteering by capitalists and all stacking and loaf ing whether by individual action or hs a result of union action" The Colonel declared he had "scant pa tience with the men who treat the war merely as a chance for profit, and "least patience with the rich mer who keep their sons at home"
 The profiteer, he declared, should be put to digging first line erenches and This brother in wrongdoipg, the i stacker or loafer," should be put be side him." | In this country, he said, tho Ger manized socialists have shown them 1 selves as enemies of the republic, ant should not be permitted to be at large while the republic is at death grip: with a foreign foe.
 The Colonel also advocated nor severe action against German spie and pro- German traitors, saying, ''ev cry man who has the slightest feeling in favor of Germany should be in termed or sent out of the country, anC if he is guilty of serious disloyalty, h.
 should be shot or hung. Let us g the limit against every pro-German but save In the case of spies and trait ors and preachers of sedition, let u

TANKS AGAINST
 CANNON FODDER
(Henry Seidel Canby in the October

(Henry Seidel Canby in the October
 (Yale Review.)
 That we should be building ma chimes to take the place of men is no mere romance of science or expedient of a war where "cannon fodder" has risen in price. For if the Tank takes the place of many common soldiers, then many common soldiers need no longer stay comment! The enemy have already recognized this principle in their latest methods of attack. Roughly speaking, and in exact ac- cord with their idea of the value of life where the state and its ambitions are concerned. they have divided their infantry into two sorts, There are the regiments of inferior material, true cannon fodder, which can be pushed in masses against the enemy, succeed" ing often by sheer momentum, in spite of frightful losses; and then are the picked men, of storm troop" grade, armed with machine guns, able to hold what is taken, and each worth a score of the rihe-armed rabble, This is the scheme of Prussian evolution towards superwar, a less humane and ultimately to be a less effective method than the British invention. Furthermore, a method which looks towards a Prussian future merely, For note that men and machines in Prussian eyes have the same value. or rather, that men by proper discipline can be made as valuable as machines The Prussian mind conceived bat tering-ram of plebian, second-rate flesh (preferably Social Democrats unskilled laborers, and the like) which could be crushed in assault without material loss The Western mind imagined the Tank. a super Tommy without his precious vita spark.
