If they had more oil rigs and
fewer geologists in the alleged
oil fields of Holbrook more def
mite results would be accom-
plished. 1t has too much the
appearance of promoters trying
to get the people excited so they
can be induced to let loose of
their money to do the expert
mental drilling, while the pro-
moters take their usual per cent
of "rake-off" for exploiting the
field. Most of these alleged oil
promoters are more, interested in
getting their "rake-of" than in
the discovery of oil.

When the tabulation of the
third Liberty Loan is completed
it will show that the real slack
ers are the men of wealth. When
a working man deprives himself
of some of the comforts of life
in order to buy a $50 bond he is
making sacrifice for his coun-
try, but thousands of men with
good incomes, and rated as men
of wealth, have only purchased
a few hundred dollars worth of
bonds, and made no sacrifice
whatever of personal comfort.
Men of this kind are slackers,
and can be rated about 40 per
cent American, and the other 60
per cent is selfish interest.

Senator Chamberlain, of Ore
gon, is going to probe into an
other alleged scandal of war
preparations by trying to find
out what has been done with the
$640, 100000 appropriation to
build war planes, and no war
planes have been built. But
what is the use investigating
and uncovering graft of war
agents if the government does
not put the guilty parties up
against a firing squad. Any
person in time of war who would
graft on the war resources of the
country is worse than a spy, and
he should be executed as one.
Then grating will cease.

If the government intends to
get after the war profteers with
the strong arm of the law why
does not the legal department
start an action against the mill
ing trust of the United States
for charging more for corn meal
than they do for wheat flour.
The expense of making flour far
exceeds the cost of manufacture
ing corn meal, and the actual
capital invested in a flour mill
exceeds ten times the capital re-
quired to install a corn meal
plant. Wheat cost the miller on
the government price about 81. 20
a bushel, and corn is worth about
ST.. SO a bushel, and yet corn meal
costs the consumer a cent a pound
more than -four. At the present
price of corn the cost of manu-
featuring 100 pounds of meal
does not exceed So. 25, and charg-
ing the consumer at the rate of
ST is simply a robbery made pos
sible by the food administration S
order that corn meal is a substi-
tute for flour. Ii meal is to be
made a substitute the govern
ment should set a price on it that
would be fair to the consumer.

Congressman Hayden is on
record as being opposed to uni
versal military training, an d
when he is a candidate for re-
election this fall he will have to
do some explaining. This country
has learned it's lesson of unpre-
paredness, and it will never be
caught again. 1t is a mistaken
idea that universal military train
ing even in peace times is a cul-
tivation of a war spirit. Every
state has its national guard where
young men volunteer for military
training, which is good physical
culture and develops discipline;
but instead of being a volunteer
movement it should be compul-
sorry on all young men for a GER
tain set period, and the guard
should be under government con-
troll instead of the state. The
government has lost a full years
time in this war training its
young men in the rudiments of
soldering, whereas if compulsory
military training had been the
policy in the years past we could
have had 100000 men in France
within six months if transport
facilities were available.

The Kaiser and his military
leaders are beginning to discover
that the army made in Amer

Congress has finally aroused
itself to the necessity of passing
the sedition bill to close the
mouths of disloyal individuals,
and suppress disloyal publica-
tions. The bill passed the House
with only one vote recorded
against it by Representative
London of New York, the social
ist member. Evidently the doc
trine of the socialists, who claim
to be patriots, cannot stand the
acid test of the provisions of the
sedition bill which meets the full
approval of all 100 per cent
Americans.
