THE WAR GAME

While some newspapers and idji
viduaIs are kicking on the veil OF
secrecy thrown around the army,
navy and other governmental mat
tiers, they seemingly don't stop to
think that such things are absolute
~ necessary for the protection of the
United States and her army of fight
ers. Just imagine for a moment
what would happen if the various
departments conducting the war
would give to the public some seem
ingly unimportant news but which
on careful analysis would prove of
great benefit to the enemy and cost
the lives of. many of our boys, de-,
struction of property and other dew
ilment by the enemy:
1t is too open a game as it IS for
the best results but we Americans
are not trained to keep our mouths
shut. Every time traitor or spy is
arrested the whole thing (apparent.
ly) is given publicity, his supposed
accomplices, how the arrest was
made, the line Of dope as TO prac-
tically every movement for weeks,
etc. Does any one wonder why we
don't round up more of. the enemy
within our borders? The others
have been put wise and of course
will change their tactics, making it
imperative to pursue other plans to
bring them into the fine meshes of
the law.
In France and England you never
hear tell of such things. A spy is
arrested, tried and shot and that's
about all the world knows of it. The
war game is necessarily a closed
game to a great extent. Everybody's
business is nobody's business.

TO HELP WIN THE WAR

The drastic order Of Fuel Admin
istrator Garfield closing all factories
and business houses, except drug and
feed Sto. eS where fuel is used, from
Friday, January 18Th, to Jan. 22d
inclusive and every Monday there
after until March 25th, caused 100
factories and other enterprises of va
rious kinds to close here Friday. With
the stores and practically every bus
mess house closing Monday the
total enterprises idle run up 10 200
here and 5000 people are out of en-
ployment for the time being.
Except the first five days, the
one day week (Monday) closing
for the next ten weeks will not<seri,
ously handicap the workmen pro-
vided they work the whole day Sat-
urday instead of taking half holi-
day.
If this is done only half day will
be lost for the next ten weeks, or it
may be made I'D entirely in extra
hours, if the Worktnen so desire.
There should be no great alarm
over the matter yeti may 70;
last as long as designated and be-
sides it does no good to become
restless and uneasy as the order
covers eH erything east of the Missis-
sippi river, so it is pretty general.
The order was the result of the
railroad congestion east of the Mis-,
sissippi due to so much business
and to keep the people from suffer
ing.
With pretty weather and fast
moving of trains the order may not
hold Sc long. In fact we hardly be-
lieve it will.
