ALLIED LABOR WITH WILSON.
Policy Essentially in Harmony with
American President

London March 22.-Thc first step in
carrying out the plans for an interna-
tional working class policy, Camille
Huysmans, secretary of the Socialist in
ternationale announced Wednesday
would be to give a clear statement on
inter-allied policy to American workers
and to show them that the policy was
essentially in harmony with that Of
President Wilson. In the meantime the
inter-allied Socialist memorandum on
war aims will be forwarded to German
Austrian and Bulgarian Socialists
through Socialist parties in neutral
countries, NJ. Huysmans considers il
likely that the Socialist organizations in
enemy countries will agree upon a com.
mon policy or will make separate state
ments on the lines of the inter allied
memorandum. If these show certain
agreements, the proposal for a general
Socialist congress will be put into oper-
alton. All parties would be represented
and the inter-allied Socialists favor
Switzerland as a meeting place.
Referring TO an article in the Berlin
Norwaerts, the organ of the German ma
jority Socialists, on the inter-allied
memorandum, NJ. Huysman said that it
only implied that the German Social
lists felt themselves to be more helpless
in the face of the government than the
British and French Socialists before
theirs. The Socialists in Great Britain
and France, he added, felt able to fight
for their ideas, but the German Social
ist majority showed a spirit of greater
resignation and had shown it for more
than year.

STOP TALKING PEACE.
BY Porter Emerson Browne of The vigi.
lantes.

It is time that the United States
stopped playing Germanys game.
Germany. sure of her ability to keep
her own peoples solid for war, talks
peace. We, stopping our own efforts to
listen and to answer, cripple and confuse
both ourselves and our allies.
1t is the old, old game, of the two
burglars in the jewelry shop. One en-
cages the proprietor in conversation
while the other robs the safe.
While Herting gives vent to as choice
a lot of mendacious hot-air, as the world
has ever heard. Hindenburg tramples
upon PROSTATE Russia and adds another
corpse to his rapidly accommodating col
lection.
And we, soft hearted soft headed
kindly souled, peace loving, peace Injured
people that we are, gable on while muir
der is committed before our very eyes.
We had better begin to realize that
this thing we have embarked in is not
a Joint debate but a war. Every day
that we spend in conversation and that
Germany spends in war, is a two days
loss to Us and two days gain for Ger
many.
Time is the essence of victory for Ger
many as well as Tor ourselves. We have
not now enough ships both to supply
our troops in France and to handle 9th
er necessary shippings as well. Every
day that we delay in bringing every eff
fort that we as a nation possess to the
successful prosecution of the war, means
a day gained for Germany's submarines,
a day gained for the development of the
new resources that she has captured by
force of arms.
How much longer do we intend to
stand in the front door talking to the
well dressed confidence man while his
beetle-browed pal commits murder in the
back room?
We have already bought a good half
dozen German gold bricks. How many |
more must we purchase before we think |
we've got enough?

GERMAN DEFENSE PLANS.
Elaborate Preparations Made in Case the
Allies Attack.

French Front. March 22.-- Correspond.
ence of the Associated Press How the
Germans prepare to resist an assault by
the allied troops who continually harry
them along the entire front, is disclosed
in document which has just fallen into
the hands OF the French. This paper
points out that il is necessary to be pre-
pared for every eventualty and to estab-
lish in advance ample dumps of ammu-
milton for several days fighting for the
field and position guns as well as for the
trench mortars, since it must be expected
I that the allies will, in case the operation
i should be on a big scale employ poison
I gas in large quantities and at the same
time put up a barrage fire between the
German front lines and their communica.
tions with the rear.
The essential reserve Of ammunition
for the trench mortars is laid down at
$50 projectiles for each light mortar, 80
proieetiles for each trench mortar of
middling calibre and 40 proiectiles for
each heavy mortar. The mortar en-
placements should be surrounded by
barbed wire entanglements and the gun
ners should be provided with a spleutful
supply of hand grenades for Use in case
the allied troops should storm the posi-
tions.
As to the field and position artillery,
each battery should have on hand sufii.
oient ordinary ammunition to last three
days and half and also to have ready
for use a supply Of poison gas shells.
Great stress is laid on the value Of
maintaining communications between the
infantry engaged and the staff in the
rear. Each regiment is ordered to APP
point an officer responsible for this serv-
ice, whose duty shall be to reconnoitre
the line occupied by his regiment and
send frequent reports as to the situation
even when no change has occurred.
The document recalls that the French /
airplanes accompanying the assaulting
during the last battles around /
Verdun caused great disturbance to the
Germans. 1t asserts that the effective
obtained oy these aviators were
very limited, but that the morale of the
German troops was considerably upset
by them 1t recommends the placing of
special machine gun groups in the rear of
the front lines to deal with such attacks
by enemy airplanes.

Washington, D. c., March 22.-Presi
dent Wilson yesterday signed the bill
bringing railroads under government OPP
Grafton and control untL twenty-one
months after the end of the war.
An act was passed early in August
1916. when the war cloud was growing
ominous, empowering the president,
through the secretary of war, to take
control of and utilize all systems OF
transportation in a national emergency.
President Wilson employed this authori-
ty on Dec. %, 1917, taking possession
of the lines and appointing Secretary of

Brattleboro's Pride.

Like the proud Miss Mcbride, who was
proud Of her pride, Brattleboro points
to its war chest as fine exhibition of
patriotic spirit in raising upwards Of
$4,000 to aid worthy war causes. Two
thousand eight hundred and thirty nine
subscribers means that 81 to 40 per cent
of the people of the town are actually
enrolled, or approximately two persons
for every family and the average sub
scription is $3.50 to $40 per capita The
Reformer takes satisfaction in the re-
suit, as its columns produced the bar
rage of publicity, which prepared the
people of the town to go over the top
when the signal was given. Brattleboro
is the first community in the state to
provide a war chest. If other towns and
cities wish to avoid duplication of effort
and at the same time be prepared for
any call that may be made, men who
worked for weeks in systematizing the
here will be glad to give useful
advice and aid--Brattleboro Reformer.

In imposing sentence Judge Kunkel

kel remarked these cases might have
been disposed of in that way and the
court could have been saved the trou-

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are aHarmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the SUBJ
stitute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. They are the re-
suit of DR.. Edwards's determination not
totreat liver and bowel complaints with
calomel. His efforts to Danish it brought
out these little olive-colored tablets.
The pleasant little tablets dothe good
that calomel does, but have no bad after
effects. They don't injure the teethli like
strong liquids or calomel. They take
holdof the trouble and quickly correct it.
Why cure the liver at the expense of the
teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc
with the gums. Sodo strong liquids. 1t
is best not to take calomel, but to let DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets take its place.
Most headaches, "dullness" and that
lazyfeeling come from constipation and
a disordered liver. Take DR.. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel "loggy' and
heavy" Note how they clear "clouded
brain and how they "perkup" the spirits.
