BIG LIVESTOCK

Many Judging Contests I'm

Chicago. Nov. 3O.-The big inter-
national livestock exposition swung
under way today, with a grand array
of prize-winning "~aristocrats" from
all sections of this country and Can
d on exhibition in a huge structure
gaily gowned in the bright colors
of America and her Allies.
While the many judging contests
for the $4,000 in prizes were in prog
ress, livestock men held impromptu
conferences at which important prob
lens relating to food production dur-
ing the reconstruction period were
discussed. These included plans for
increasing the livestock production
and providing great quantities of food
for Europe.
with Europeans stocks practically
establish them On a pre-war basis"
said an official of the exposition to-
day. He declared hat the coming
of peace would not bring any material
reduction in prices, and added:
Fortunately the United States
never was in a better position to as
sist in this great task, as this expo
sition will demonstrate. The seed
stock is of inestimable value and
much Of it is not for sale at any
price, but at least a part of these
flocks and herds will go to Europe
during the reconstruction period.
However, there is no meat sur
plus in sight anywhere, not even dur
ing the. next half decade. Hogs offer
the only possible outlet for a bare
sufficiency, and it is to the stock
raisers of this and other countries
that the exposition makes it's direct
appeals. We must have increased
stocks to supply the world market"
One of the most valuable prizes to
be awarded at the international stock
exposition, in progress here, is the
Senior Carlos M. Duggan trophy. It
is offered for the best two head, bull
and COW, of any age, bred and owned
by the exhibitor. 1t must be won
three times at the international.
The trophy was presented by Senior
Duggan, who two years ago came
from Argentina as one Of the judges

Toxic, Nov. 10.-(Correspondence

cabinet headed by Takashi Hara is
hailed as marking the advent Of popu-
lar government in Japan. For fifty
years the champions Of representative
government have been struggling for
a system under which the premier
would be selected for that post be-
cause he was the leader of the ma
jority party in the house of represen-
tatives. This had been accomplished
when Mr.. Hara was chosen.
During that half century the gov

tions must be chosen from army and
naval circles.

exclaimed Marquis Okuma. Japan's
grand old man. who has labored al
ways for the cause of democratic
government. The whole nation
should support the Hara ministry if
they are really DESTROYS of the devel-
opments Of constitutional politics in
Japan. Japan should have new men.
young and vigorous, who are able to
handle important affairs of state"
One of the first decisions adopted
by the new cabinet was to abolish the
custom of detailing detectives to ac-
company ministers wherever they
might &c and the opening of the min
isterial apartments so that the people
might have a freer access to them.
Mr.. Hara's striking features are his

He is sparing of words and speaks

CONDITIONS MUST BE RESTORED.

essary to the maintenance of effective
gold standard should be restored with
out delay after the terms of peace are
signed, reports a committee headed
by Lord Cunliffe which was appointed
to consider currency and foreign ex-
change problems after the war. The
committee said:
UNLESS the machinery which long
experience has shown to be the only
effective remedy for an adverse bal
ance of trade and an undue growth
of credit is once more brought into
play, there will be grave danger Of a
progressive credit expansion which
will result in a foreign drain of gold
menacing the co~nvertability of our
issue and SO jeopardizing the %interna-
tional trade position Of the country"
To maintain the gold standard the
committee recommended cessation of
government borrowing as soon as O
sible, establishment of an adequate
sinking fund out of the revenues, and
the raising of the Bank of England
discount rates.

hatred, without love and without life,
speeding towards it's ultimate destiny.
Waste of man power is the greatest
crime and sin of all ages.
All moral concepts forbid murder.
The very thought of taking human life
is abhorrent-filled with loathsome icy
chills.
States and societies have provided
that deliberate homicides must be
punished with death.
When nations fight, it is either for
lf-preservation, the attainment of
some cherished ideal or for conquest
and aggrandizement.
Hapsburgs' and Hohenzollerns' wars
have been all for the growth and per-
petuation Of an arrogant and power
full aristocracy.
militarism, agriculture, industries,
sciences, kultur-everything has been
made to contribute to the cause of the
kaiser for centuries.
France has been feared for its love
of freedom; England has been hated
for its democracy, expansion and in
dustries, and America has been des-
pissed and envied for her gigantic
growth and everything the new world
had and which central Europe and its
kultur and vassal provinces lacked.
In Germany socialism grew and
grumbled under the gruesome load /;
but the proletarians were easily over
awed by the military powers, and the
leaders automatically compromised
with Prince Bismarck for a seat in the
reichstag-the national debating So
ciety of the empire. Here they venti-

desrath, the kaiser and his military
machine-with the aristocracy-the
mailed fist of the Huns continued to
rule and oppress the people. From
this tyranny millions fled to America /;
others were sent to propagate Prus-
sianism in the land of liberty.
Man power is not dead weight
mass-mere numbers; it calls for
| splendid men and women and children
of the most perfect physical and men
tai make-ups in the highest propor-
tion of greatest numbers.
Paradoxical as it may seem, men
values have raised tremendously, much
more relatively, than the increased
cost of living, since the beginning of
this terrible war. The life of a SOL
der now is estimated all the way from
1000 up to a quarter of million
dollars, and it is said Won Hindenburg
figures the life of boche worth more
than the lives of thousand defense
less women and children, no matter to
what neutral or warning power they
owe their loyalty. France, England
and Italy have about the same amount
of man power as the territories con-
trolled by the kaiser, and the United
States has a 10000 900 population.
That gives the allies twice the man
power of the central European ma
tions, and the allies have demonstrated
since 1914 that with very little train
ing they hold greater number Of
Huns at bay.
When it comes to muntion and
money, the Anglo-American countries
have the Teutons beaten by billions
long ago. The kaiser's war chest and
storehouses-accumulations Of two
generations-are fast being depleted,
despite piratical raids on Russia and

If this war is going to end by the
exhaustion of one or more of the
combatants, it is not going to be the
allies which will lose.
America alone has more men than
Germany, and more muntion and
money resources than all the torn
peninsula of Europe.
Our immense nature wealth has but
barely been touched and American
genius is just terminating; decades
will elapse yet before it reaches full
fruition, and long ere then German
kultur will be thing Of the past.
The Huns may lombard Paris, take
Calais, raid London; but their poison
fumes will be hurled back on them
when they hit the American cyclone.

THRFT-LABOR

There is a popular theory Of eco
nomics that it is the spending of
money that makes business, employ
ment and wages. This is true to a
certain extent, but it does not imply
wasteful expenditure and does not
deny thrift. 1t is not true that the
throwing away of money in foolish
expenses makes for prosperity.
There have been those who have
criticised the war savings campaign,
alleging it to be a movement of capi-
tai for the purpose Of getting wage
earners to live cheaper and save money
to work cheaper after the war. This
is absurd.
On the other hand, prominent
banker said: Every dollar saved
tends to raise wages. Why? Be-
cause the dollar that is saved must
be put to work; otherwise it is not
profitable. If it is placed in bank, it
must seek investment, perhaps on real
estate loans, meaning the employment
of labor in buildings; perhaps on mer-
chants notes, meaning to help in the
distribution of the products of labor; 4;
perhaps in loans to manufacturers,
thus helping to employ labor. Every
time a dollar goes to work it creates
a demand for labor and if we create
demand for labor, there must be a
tendency to raise the wages Of labor"
The foregoing statement sounds like
good economies and, moreover, it
teaches the lesson of thrift and its
value to labor, for dollar saved is a
dollar of strength. We know that in
our labor unions. We know that if a
labor union is without money, its
troubles multiply. Employers neither

MEN, MUNITIONS AND MONEY
THESE THREE ARE THE BIG FACTORS IN THE
WORLDS TWENTIETH CENTURY DRAMA.

The nation which has the greatest
supply and knows best how to con-
serve and utilize it's man power, its
munition resources and its grand total
financial strength must, as mathe-
matical problem, if not as common
sense solution, in the end be the VIC
tor in the gigantic International con-
flict.
Of the three main factors, man
power is by far the greatest and most
important and all-determining one
actually the quantity.
The two others flow from the first;
they are entirely dependent upon the
nations man power just as much as
plant life is upon soil, cultivation and
moisture.
When speaking or writing of man
power, the term is intended in its
wider meaning, including not only
men but also women and children
