WILL PROSECUTE COWARDS.

The department of justice has advised Thomas Flynn, United States attorney that the depart ment received from time to time information showing that many citizens of the United States have escaped to foreign coun- tries in order to avoid military duty.
 Attorney General Gregory states that it is the desire of the department of justice that in dictments should be returned in every case of this character where the facts in the opinion of the federal attorney are suffi cient to support an indictment. The attorney general believes that the indictments should be returned regardless of the fact that there is no immediate pro- bability of experimenting the stacker who shirks his duty.
 In all cases of this type con- ing to the attention of the de- partment of justice information will be forwarded to the special agent in charge of that work at | Phoenix and he will make a thorough investigation of the matter. In many cases the spe- cial agents will be supplied by the department of justice with information in the form of inter cepted letters and other docu mentary proof, necessary to es tablish the fact of foreign re sidence.
 No doubt many cases of loca' slackers who have moved across the Mexican border since the passing of the draft act have come under the attention of the federal attorney and the sug gested method of returning in dictments in these cases will il all probability prevent men wht have left this country to evad' service from ever returning t' their native land. .-ProspectOr

Don't Bump the Bumps.

Men battle for those things they have sought
peacefully. Peaceful methods failing, they take
into their hands the brand of war; they burn and
kill rather than forego that which they have set
their hearts upon.
Now if men realize that in robbing another
they but rob themselvcs-as the house falls which
divides tself-thc road would be open for a human
conduct based upon really adequate method OF
life.
America it is who has been granted some ink
ling of this realization. Dissemination OF this
knowledge is the supreme propaganda, the re-
sponsibility for the carrying on OF which, unless
we are to sink back into ignorance we cannot es-
cape.
And if we keep our minds free from estimations
of the possibility OF personal loss if tie whole
heartedIy to the thought that the things we seek
at Armageddon not for ourselves, but only a
sharing Of our own with others, reverse shall
discourage
But if we rate the material loss that may pro-
ceed to US out of the issues OF battle, we shall
write fear into our souls and each reverse shall
dishearten US and each difficulty shall leave
US less muscled. Fear, fear for self, is our only
real enemy.
Take it from Mr. Hoover, who Belgium
under the Prussian heel: Don't bump the bumps.

Behind the Barricade.

- We presume the swvel-chair warriors are read
ing the daily story of wars carnage with equanim-
ity. Barricaded by an oak desk they feel secure
from the fate of other young who are being
sufocated by gas, mutilated by shrapnel and per-
haps killed by the latest of helrs devices.
1t would be idle to follow this subject did
not feel the gross injustice being done the very
able who are by right of ability occupying
desks in carrying on the necessary work of war.
Nor need we again call attention to the thousands
who responded promptly for "any service"
We feel only contempt for the young who
is deliberately evading real service technical
ty, and believe that in calling public attention
to it serving them right. If they only
find themselves they may prove to be just as good
Americans as have gone across the to battle.
Is it any wonder the country is aroused over the
abuse of influence? Is it matter for the soft
pedal? Must be squeamish about hurting the
feelings of those who seek the towards place. mean
while knowing that Gen. Pershing is sending us
casualty lists containing the of your boy and
mine?
1t would be outrage if any foolish persons
would distort what we have said or may say about
desk warriors to that criticised in the
slightest degree the many able who are serv-
ing so capaby in desk positions but in every great
crisis it is essential that the sheep and the goats be
separated.

Al-the-Year Schools.

BY way of the Committee on Public 1nforma-
ton and the division on Woman's War Work we
are told that Secretary Lane avors the using OF the
schools to the maximum capacity. In accordance
with this idea the United States Bureau of Educa-
ton suggests that village and country schools be
kept open in summer.
Commissioned Claxton says that the average
school term is not more than ISo days, and in
many places less. Then Mr.. Claxton says: Some
opportunity should be offered for such children as
will make better of it than loahng on the
streets"
According to the statement by the bureau, chill
dren in the cities where summer schools have been
organized speak enthusiastically, and the reason
given is that the schoolroom is cooler than the
streets or than the room at home
Parents interviewed said they approved Of the
al-year-around schools.
The suggestion might work to the advantage OF
the scholars and might not. 1t is our judgment
that the school board in the District is wrong.
An earlier starting, adequate recess and over by
I:so o'clock has been adopted in many cities and
works satisfactorily On this basis would favor
an al-the-year- around school

There 10 merit in the suggestion

white band worn on the arm, should
be ordered for officers assigned to

Mr.. Kitchin 1t In entirely too sweep

to label as slackers, IL we under

Alright, although his statement has
been construed so that every Of

type OF gentry that is filling the

Since the date OF the second draft
was announced Washington has
been filIed with applicants who de-
sire TO join this group in getting
commissions in the safe branches
OF the service. They are tugging
away at every conceivable string
to get into an oflcer's uniform be-
fore Gen. Crowder gets them into
the draft.
Recent criticism in Congress has
caused the War Department to take
a census Of this selected class now
stationed at the War Department

purpose OF evolving some plan
whereby they be got out OF sight.
We are told that there are approx

The Red and White Flag.
BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE.

(The Czechs and Slovaks are fighting in the allied
armies, under their own flag-the red and white of
the Republic of Bohemia. The ancient national
song of Bohemia translates Where is my home?")
The Czech and the Slovak have struck for their
state
And their flag is afloat on the red line OF war.
They have chosen their stand, they have fronted
their fate
And committed their cause to the thunders of
Thor.
o, hasten the day when they come to their own
And the Hapsburg uSurper is hurled from his throne
And the joy of free peoples leaps out Of their
throats,
Where the red and white flag of Bohemia floats
These men of the race of the Slovak and Czech;
Hats off in salute for the heroes they arel
Each stands to his gun with a moose on his neck,
More honored by that than by ribbon -and-star.
They have sworn by the prowess of Zisks the
brave
That the land of a Huss shall not harbor slave,
That the people shall rule by the peoples own
votes
Where the red and white flag of Bohemia floats
o, Land of Bohemia, you shall arise
From the night of distress you have suffered too
long;
The flag of your freedom shall brighten the skies
And the laughter of children shall break into
song.
For the Czech and the Sovak, though widely they
roam, -.
Hear ever their melody "Where is my home"
~ Where? How the heart leaps as it answers the
notes; t...

Mr.. Thomas Talks.

Introducing Representative Robert Y Thomas
OF Kentucky. who makes a most unique suggestion
in the form of amendment to the bill authoriz-
ing the increasing of salaries of government en-
p1oyes Mr. Thomas would have all newspapers
in the District of Columbia pay each of their
positors, pressmen and reporters a wage of not
less than 81 a day. Mr.. Thomas is evidently dis
pleased because the newspapers of Washington
have been active in urging that the employees be
paid wages that will enable them to live in better
conditions.
The newspapers OF Washington are all employ
ing union labor in their mechanical departments
and the union scale for compositors and pressmen
in Washington is than 81 day for a seven
hour day.
Does Mr.. Thomas know that reporters in Wash
ington receive than 81 day. They are a
Jew reporters Washington papers who receive
less than this sum, but they "cubs-just learn
ing the newspaper business Their salaries advance
considerably more rapidly than those of the gov
ernment employee, whom a few are continually
trying to keep from their rights.
Here are few more facts about Washington
newspapers and their employees which Mr.. Thomas
might bear in mind.
Despite the fact that the scale of wages in the
Re hanical departments of Washington newspapers
arc fSsd by an agreement between the publishers
and me labor unions, every paper in Washington
Nplaltarily fncreased the wages of these depart
: Ssfnehts 10 per cent. The of The Washington
Rsrsid has insured every person in his employ for
oreZ Years salary in OF death, to be paid to
his beneficiary. This insurance does not cost the
employe a cent.
Meanwhile Mr. Thomas and his associates con-
tnue to argue over the increases for government
clerks and though it has been brought before them
many times, Congress has as yet made no provi-
sion for government employees after their period of
usefulness is over.
II Mr.. Thomas is against raising the salaries of
government employees, he must get some new argu-
ments. The day when the government salaries
could compete with those outside is over

idlers OF so-called royalty, who made others obey
them and capitalistic idlers who made fortunes
and sought greater fortunes by forcing others to do
their bidding But, work will beat them all! The

Henry's right. 1t is a battle between those who
work intelligently and those who idle brutay. 1t,
moreover, is truth set forth by who knows.
Mr. Ford is a capitalist and about near royalty

and should offer a solace for its trails

When we look at the world as Il
has been since 1914 most Of US cannot
follow this kind Of reasoning.
There are those who maintain that
because the world is as Il IL there
can be no God in heaven or anywhere
else.
Others say that there Is a God and
that he has nothing to do with the
war one way or the other. Some Of
them add that he does not even know
the war f. going on.
Still others, and they include the
overwhelming majority in all the bel
hgerent countries. say that God 10 on
their side and that, because OF his
help, their side will win.
And from all the belliEerent coun-
tries, indeed. from the whole world,
