 "Nor in our prayers shall we for get the widow who freely gave the husband, more precious than her life, nor those who in hidden heroism have impoverished themselves to en- rich the cause, nor our comrades who in more obscure posts here and at home have furnished their toll to the soldiers at the front
 "To many fame has come. New names have been inscribed on the roll of the immortals. To all have come a new outlook on life, clear CT perspective regarding it's obliga- tions, more exalted conception of duty and honor and a deeper sense of responsibility to the nation and to God.
 May we give thanks that unself- ish service has given us this new vision, that we are able to return to our fireside and our country with higher aims and firmer purpose alike ennobling to ourselves and to those who have held long vigil and have prayed for us. that we might worthily represent them.
 This spirit that has won the victory is to become permanent and indispensable mainstay of peace and happiness. It is not a matter of individual choice, but of obliga- ton, that we should proudly carry It back with us. If the glory of our military service has heen g spontan- eous offering of loyalty. it is too priceless to be cast aside by induI- gence and too sacred not to be cher ished always.
 Our nation awaits the return of its soldiers, believing in the stabi lity of character that has come from self discipline and self-sacriflce. Con- fident o the new power that the stern school of war and discipline has brought to each of us, American mothers await with loving hearts their gallant sons.

 Washington, Nov. 30.-With it's per manent building program in full swing and emergency needs passed the Shipping Board is preparing to dispose of some of it's small steer ships and number of wooden craft. Proposals for the purchase Of ton- mage have been received from many prospective buyers at home ana abroad.
 Pending disposition of some of the wooden ships, contracts for 16O sucn vessels have been cancelled since the signing of the armstice. Work on some of these had not yet been start ed, but others were ten percent com plete, while a few were one third finished hulls. The board decided to cancel because it was deemed bet ter to suffer a slight monetary loss than to put into the water at heavy expense, hulls for which no use could be found in domestic trade under peace conditions.
 If there is sufficient demand for wooden tonnage by private owners these contracts may be reinstated Officials said today $500 ton wood cargo carriers had been found entire ly satisfactory as emergency ships, and foreign owners would find them profitable for coastwise trade.
 Some of the wooden hulls now be- ing put into the water will he equip ped as oil carriers for the Mexican American trade; others will be turn ed into barges, large saving in ma chinery and cost of completing the vessels being effected.

LAKE HOPATCONG, Aug. Cone
million Chinese farm laborers and
household servants should be imported
to America at once to meet the press
Ing labor shortage. This policy has
just been suggested by Hudson Max
i'm, noted inventor and member of the
Naval Consulting Board.
He believes the war may otherwise
last rs years.
'If my plan is adopted" said Max
i'm to me today, "the wife of the
humblest worker could afford to keep
q Chinese servant to do all the house
work and cultivate the garden. In
stead of hurting American working
men, the adoption of this policy would
result in lower cost OF living, and
higher wages for him.
"Germany's present strength is
largely due to the fact hat she has
$4,000, 900 slaves, prisoners and SUBJ
ject peoples, working for her.
The French government has i'm
ported 800,0 Chinese agricultural
laborers, with eminently satisfactory
results France pays the Chinaman so
cents a day, supplies them with W
suits of clothes a year, brings them in
free of cost to themselves, and engages
to return them free after the war.
The principal objection to import
ing Cinnamon comes from labor. An
other objection is fear of in~ter-breed-
ing with an inferior race. I can an
swer both objections.
importation of Cinnamon would
not put them in competition with
American labor. The Cinnamon would
so increase the volume. of food supply
as to provide ample profitable labor
for the occupation OF all American
iaborers displaced by the Cinnamon.
More American laborers on the
farms would become overseers or be
free 30 select work for which Ameri-
cans are best adapted.
Much more work would be pro-
vided, more iron and steel would be
produced, and a larger number of
hands would be required for cotton
mills. wooden mills and shoe factories.
More freight car would be needed.
This would mean more work for high
class American labor.
THE Chinese would be employed
under such restrictions and circum-
stances to raise the standard OF living

him to get better "a for fewer hours
n to buy very much more for his
money and thereby to live much bet
ter at less cost.
Would it not be rather tough on
the Cinnamon to hire them to work
long hours for such small wages? No.
The Cinnamon would be paid ten times
as much as they can earn In China.
"A Chinaman for this service would
be merely q labor-saving machine.
THE Chinese could be excluded
from buying or owning real estate,
fro.l citizenship and voting, thus ex-
Guiding them from all participation in

marrying Americans. They could also
be debarred from travelling from one
section of the country to another Sec

Is war ever justifiable?

David Starr Jordan, chancellor
of Leland Stanford university,
asked this question and gave an
answer, speaking on Evolution,
the War and Religion" at the
First Congregational church We'd
nesday night.
1t is logical to assert that war,
being continuous crime, is never
justified.
ut is logical to assert with
Sir Thomas More that war against
tyranny and wanton aggression is
justifiable. Opposition to Ty-
rant Is Obedience to God
WAR to End War" at Had to
Be Done"
1T is plain that civilization
cannot recognize 1.-The right of
conquest
1T is plain that to yield to mill
tary aggression is to recognize
force as law. Peace can never be
secured by yielding to wrong.
This, Russia is demonstrating.
Neither Belgium nor France could
have gained peace by yielding.
There is but one lasting peace,

one in whose adjustment force
gains no reward. This is the
"Clean Peace as defined by Mr..
Asquith, as set forth with master
full eloquence by President Wilson.
There is no man in power, here
or in Europe, who sees so clearly
what must come out of this war as
President Wilson," he said. Zone
OF the things that comes out of
this war must be that toward
which we have been striving for
years. That is, universal disarma-
ment.
In the perversion of science,
it is announced that Prussian
monarchial order interprets di-
vine perfection, that military pow
err is the sole real force, that
states know no right and wrong,
existing in a moral vacuum, and
that conquest is not only a ma
tional privilege but a moral duty
to back up evolution.
Under this head Charletans of
every grade have justified war
hoped for it, prayed for it, and
their combined influence has come
near wrecking human civiliza-
