PREPAREDNESS DOWN no DATE.
tCedar Rapids Gazette.l
Those who lament the unprepared-
ness of the United States might reflect
that there Is a vast difference between
preparation and precip!tate action. De-
velopments prove rather conclueively
that other nations were not prepared
with such thoroughness as might have
been desired.
In the case Of airplanes this truth Is
particularly apparent. Until the lio-
erty motor was invented, or rather
adapted from other inventions. there
was no proper power machine for the
equipment OF airfieets on such a scale
as the occasion demands.
There were good motors, but there
we're no interchangeable motors on
British. French or Italian planes, and
so far as known, a German plane was
individual. II part OF the mechanism
became damaged or was destroyed the
entire machine was out Of commission.
ouarternasters write Of doing a ia
nous business In Ford giblets"--come
in half-carload lots, more II desired.
No other automobile manufacturer
produces ''gtblets." The Ford IL as
readily and about as easily repaired as
standard corn plow, side delivery
hayrake standard moving machine or
any other implement having some half
dozen working parts. The Ford is
therefore handy and efficient tool and
It not In the luxury class. II Is thor
oughly American in conception. From
his watch to his hayloader the Yankee
wants the thing that can be properly
repaired on short notice. Time Is
money and ne owes bills.
The liberty motor carries ont the
same idea. Quartermasters will have
more "giblets" to handle. The ma
chimes can be repaired on the field OF
action. Each aviator Will be his own
The improvement Is
recognized by the British and French
who have expressed their wishes to
take ali motors the United States may
be able to spare. The other parts OF
their planes are good enough. Any
sort Of plane will remain IN the air and
respond to steering gear II It has the
proper power. In mechanics the
American Is always prepared.

chastened. wiser but sadder Others
do not learn the lesson, and for the
protection of society it Is essential that
these are treated with the severity
their cases demand.
Honor systems are all right in their
way, but there Is a tendency to overdo
the thing, just as there was a dispose
ton In days gone by to make the lot
of the prison inmate a hell. A happy
medium should be established; the
merits of each case should be con-
sidered. The convict who will not be
good should be shown no mercy.
