BRITISH WAR EXPERT WRITES
FOR FORUM.


Tonight The Forum introduces to
It's readers, Mr.. Hilaire BelloC, prob
Ably the most famous writer on mill
tary topics in the world, who writes
the first Of a series Of weekly war
reviews, In place of the usual Simonds
article on the war.
The circumstances that permit a
paper Of the size of The Forum to
present weekly a cabled article from
Mr.. Belloc, as a first run" feature.
are interesting.
The Forum contracted with The
New York Tribune for the right TO
publish simultaneously its regular
weekly simonds article. The con-
tract stiu has several months to run.
AS the result of some misunderstood
ing, Mr.. simonds left the employ Of
The Tribune, although he Is bound
BIZ contract not to write weekly war
reviews for any. other publication for
a year. The Tribune Immediately en-
gagged Mr.. Belloc, who is the editor
Of Land and Water, Great Britaan's
premier paper devoted to military
affairs. He predicted as far back as
1913, the exact conditions OF the war,
and since its outbreak he has been
the most quoted Of writers on war
tupica. 1Er. simonds himself, recent
~ referred to him as "the best known
and best informed OF British war
critics" He has served with the
French artillery and therefore has a
practical knowledge Of his subject.
IRIS articles are all cabled direct to
The Tribune, not mailed, so they are
up to the minute. The cost Of the
cabae tolls alone would be more than
a much larger paper than The Forum
could afford to pay.
The fact that Mr.. Belloo writes
from England should make his arti-
eles distinctive from those of any
American writers. and they should
Be OF even greater interest than those
eontrIbuted by Mr.. simonds.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the SUBJ

effects. They don't injure the teethlike

ton OF the recent raid on the ONCE

wearing an iron ring bearing a pro-
German inscription.
II Is q frank enough statement OF
the case, on the face OF It, and 1t con-
tains full denial Of any German

FOR more sympathetic understand

II certainly is.
That's the nub Of the whole situa-
tom

was chosen president of the United
States Grain corporation. Before the
war his firm handled about half OF
the total export grain business of
America, but he closed his desk last
spring and turned his organization
over to the government taking one
of the 81 year jobs for himself.
Here is his sketch OF Mr.. Hoover
as q fighter:
mr.. Hoover is = Quaker and
when a Quaker is a fighter / sup
pose he is a most persistent,
most relentless, most terrifying
kind Of a fighter.
II lived with Mr.. Hoover three
months last summer, lived at his
home, ate breakfast and dinner
with him, saw him under all con-
ditions, and never for one min
ute saw him OF his guard as a
fighter, persistently Analysing
figures and statistics and tabula-
tiona to see in what way he can
invent a new pressure against
our enemies.
Il never saw him attend a
theater, never saw him play a
game of cards, never saw him
leave the Office before o'clock,
never saw him at home that he
was not working until bedtime
on some Of those problems; he Is
everlastingly at IL.
at Is his ingenuity, his remark
able memory for figures, statis-
tics and facts they represent
which is making him a really
vital power in Washington today.
Free as he is from any suspicion
Of political ambition, he is a man
in whom they all confide and on
whom they all unite as the force
which can co-Telate all the acti-
vities of those departments and
make it an effective whole"

ANOTHER KIND OF KEPT
PRESS.

Like the Congressional Record, it
was believed that the Official Bulle-
tin, Uncle Sans daily. newspaper.
would be cold and relentless in its
pursuit Of the unvarnished truth, of
facts unadorned, and of news scienti-
fically sIfted. The more we see OF
its methods in handling news, the
more we think Of the average news
papers standards.
The Bulletin is proving that official
publications may not be wholly I'M
biased in their judgment of news
values. For example, the issue Of
Jan. 20 comes to hand, with thirty
two pages instead Of the usual eight
or possibly sixteen. The extra pages
are devoted to a verbatim report OF
Secretary Bakers defense of the war
departments record. This is a val
liable document, interesting reading.
and we'll worth the space given it,
but unfortunately no such attention
Is given Senator Chamberlain's at
tack which called 1t forth. The
.searcher for the truth in the original
sources is baf1ed If he relies on the
Official Bulletin. and has to go 10 the
files of publications Of societies de-
voted to attacking the war depart
ment.
Even the much maligned party
press" does better than this. IRE
spective Of the attitude they took to-
ward the war department, most daily
papers in the United States gave
about equal prominence to both sides
Of the question.
Our faith in the accuracy OF the
Omeial Bulletin as far as it goes re-
mains mistaken, but it is no longer
on the pedestal Of utter impersonality
in the handling of the news
The example shakes ones faith in
the possibility Of an endowed news
paper, or a government newspaper /
as being wholly impartial and un-
biased. They become party organs
too quickly, and any newspaper that
becomes an organ Of any party or
propaganda soon loses It's value as a
whether it continues TO
be OF value as an apostle or not.

AN AMERICAN BATTLE HYMN.

~Onward Christian Soldiers" has
been suggested as the American bat
tie hymn.
It couldn't be improved upon.
1t win never be a popular trench
song, and It won't be sung by SOL
diers going 'over the top. The lat
est music hall refrain, that conceals
emotion rather than expresses IL, will
always be the popular ditty with the
soldiers. They don't carry their
sentiments on their sleeves, and are
more likely to sing some such classic
"a where do we go from here,
boys?" than '"The Star Spangled
Banner" or "the Battle Hymn Of the
Republic, In moments Of great
stress
But for parades, or special ser
vices Onward Christian Soldiers"
would be unmatched.
Imagine rnassed bands Of the Am
erican forces marching down Inter
Den Linden at the head Of half a
million American troops, and blaring
forth Onward Christian Soldiers.
It sends a thrill up the spinal column
Just to picture it.

all classes and peoples to stand
together to defeat a common
enemy. Tt would be to the
advantage of everyone il all such
agitations were let drop until the
dove OF peace again hovers over
our land, and then there will be
ample time to settle our political
differences. In a lengthy per-
sona1 conversation with Mr..
Horst we found him far from be-
ing a radical and while we diff
fer from him in many ideas we
are pleased to have met him and
exchange views.

Toned custom OF reading aloud that
typihed the family circle Of gem
Grafton ago?
Charles Dudley Warner, In lament
ing the passing OF many old customs,
blamed the hot-air registers and
steam radiators that were replacing
the freplaces OF New England.
There may be other causes. Why
not blame II on the passing OF the
kerosene lamp? The general use Of
electricity permits a Hood OF light

old kerosene reading lamp forced the

most of the Ills OF the day. Why let

customed to having whole story
presented to him in pictures, why
wait to hear it spelled out from a
book, word by word? The regular
patron even gets impatient with SUBJ

In the esteemed Saturday Evening
Post recently, a writer who ought to
know better, swiped the old story of
the English Tommy with the hiccups,
who with shells bursting around him
says SAY something to scare me,
Bill" and applied it to the newly ar
rived Americans.
Unfortunately it was published as
a cartoon by Bairnsfather, a year be-
fore any Americans were over there.
Here is another good one The
Christian Science Monitor publishes
about a certain Lancashire battalion.
"A story is going the rounds,
in the north of England, of a GER
tain Lancashire battalion on the
Cambria front. The battalion
was trudRing back from the
trenches, after being relieved, In
the small hours OF the morning.
Suddenly, 1t was confronted by
an officere who ordered 1t to halt
and dig support trench where
1t was. The battalion obeyed, of
course, without a murmur, but,
after a moment, there came a
voice from the darkness: In six
days T. Lord made 'eaven an
earth, and then, ont sevent, Lam
cashire's COON an dug 1t all oop

Some good American stories will
be forthcoming soon enough. They
win make their own pungent COM
ments on the incidents OF the war,
forcing the correspondents
to lift from the English or French
camps.

Regarding the mail order business
the chain stores and the breakdown
in community life The Mandan
Pioneer has the following comment:
One Of the newspapers fostered
by the Nonpartisans has sounded
or resounded the alarm given out
by f. il. Packard Of the state tax
commission that the state is
suffering because $40, 1000, 900 an
nually goes out of North Dakota
to the mail order houses, and the
claim is made that as a result
our merchants are the losers.
We agree with you Mr.. Pack
ard that the decline OF the small
town merchants is breaking down
the community life. and yet you,
q man who possesses mare than

yourself out for a public Office,

ing on, and have not raised your

THE RED CROSS.

Next week the American Red
Cross will appeal for one hun
dred per cent American enroll
ment. 1t will strive to collect suf-
ficient funds wherewith to carry
on its splendid work. The war
has brought the full force of disas-
ter, in any form, clearly before
us. We know now what it means
to suffer, to hunger and thirst, to
writhe in agony from shrapnel,
fire, flood and epidemic. These
evils the Red Cross seeks to allay !;
these miseries the Red Cross seeks
to assuage. Rev. DR.. Cavanaugh,
of Notre Dame University, has
thus beautifully expressed the
aims and the nature of this Won
derful society. He says:
The American Red Cross is a
beautiful work of mercy in which
all citizens of whatever faith or
race may blend in charity and
service. 1t has no ambition that
our Lord Himself might not bless.
It's spirit is the spirit Of Bethle-
hem and Cavalry. There is no
touch of narroWness Or bigotry or
fooliShness to be observed any
where in it's work.
It's vision of duty is clear as the
eagles glance; it's heart is tender
and warm as love; it's spirit is
fresh and wholesome as the upper
breezeS.
Wherever humanity suffers it
serves; wherever humanity faints
and languishes it cheers. 1t in
spires the strong with sympathy
and the weak with hope. May we
not all pray that this beautiful
society, which gathers to it's heart
the best men and women of all the
world, may unite humanity in a
union which will mean the death
of misery, of cruelty, of bigotry.
