her nonstrous plan whs the staiya- ton or partial starvation of nearly one third of the worlds peoples, most of them innocent souls and guilty of no deed of offense against either Ger many or her allies.
 Stop and think of it a moment.
 Realize the hideous enormity of a plot aimed at causing half billion people to suffer in order that a small group of men might sate their am- bition for world conquest!
 Think of the fiendish cruelty of tho mind which would conceive and foster such a monstrous thing!
 Think of the millions of women and children, the aged and infirm. the in- nocent and helpless who would feel the bitter bangs of nrequieted hunger or actual starvation had Germany sue cceded in her infamous designs.
 Think of what it would mean to you if your loved ones were among the pale and emaciated victims of such an infamously murderous design.
 Never since the birth of the human race has more monstrous and atro- cious scheme been matched for human undoing.
 Besides il the studied atrocities in Belgium. the devastation of Poland and Serbia and the halbalitics of the submarine war are small things. for this time Germany aimed at dealing death and suffering not on thousands but on tens of millions
 In fostering such a gigantic scheme of slaughter. Germany has outdonc even herself in diahohsm. for not even the worst that she has done would compare to the suffering she would loose upon the world had her damna- ble plot succeeded.
 When one reflects on the atro. ciousncSs of II, the thought must oc- cur in the rational mind that there can be no peace in the world until the monsters who have the spirit to attempt such things are utterly ex- terminated.

6ARBARISM SUPERLATIVE

The announcement of the California State Council of Defense that Ger many has been guilty of plotting 10 >tar-e the people of America and her allies, combatants and non-com- hatants, men. women and children alike, by spreading poisonous pollen through our grain fields, is another shocking revelation of that inhuman brutality and cruel and devilish bar haTlsm which has already made the name of Germany accursed among the races of men the world over
 It would be hard to conceive of more tlamnablc pAn to wreck de- struction under the suise of war than to poison the food upon which tho masses of the nation depend for exis- tcnce, and in attempting to put such g scheme into effect in this country Germany has betrayed depth of mu- derous dcpravity which would shock the archfiend himself.
 Besides such a scheme as this the machination of the most dcpraved hu- man monsters of which history bears record pale into insignificance. for the reason that Germany was planning the deliberate murder of millions in cludinG many of whom she has no quarrel
 Her bestial blow was aimed to strike not at America and her teeming mil. lions alone, but also at England France and Italy. and half dozen other nations, and was furthermore. intended to involve not only tho mili- talY forces of her enemies but also their peoples. without regard to ago or sex.
 owing to the war having created a situation which compels the greater I"Tt of the population of all of tho ncutr'lls, to depend upon America for large part of their subsistence, by destroying the grain crops of this country, Germany was striking at every man and woman, child and babe in at least a half dozen of the worlrs most populous nations.

FRAKES BACK
IN JAIL AGAIN
Arrested on New Complaint BY
Chief Hennemann and Is Un-
able to Furnish Bond
Required by Justice.

William u. Frakes Is In Jail again
by virtue of Chief Henneman cutting
a knot OF red tape which 1t seemed
impossible to unite. He is charged
with the theft of $40 automobile
tire.
After his original arrest on war
rant from the superior court. he was
released to the exemption board
which had summoned him to go to
the army He was turned down physi-
cally at Camp Pike on account OF
defective vision and returned to Keo-
kuk. By that time the superior court
was in vacation for a month. and he
had never been arraigned-and there
was no court there to arratgn him
before.
Finally Chief Henneman filed new
information against Frakes before
Justice Burrows before whom he was
arraigned. He took time to plead
and was placed under $500 bond
which he could not give. Hence, he
was incarcerated pending his pre-.
liminary examination
