MLemore, High and Dry.

If jeff McLemore, who has just been
defeated in the Democratic primaries
for congressman in the Seventh Texas
district, had had his way some
eighteen months ago vessels flying the
Stars and Stripes might be, as they in
fact still are, safely plying between
Albany and New York, Philadelphia
and Wilmington, Memphis and New
Orleans, San Francisco and Sacra-
mento and Buffalo and Duluth. But
not spoonful of brine would have
encrusted our shy fiotillas. The reso
luton which this spineless represen-
tative fathered in congress was tanta-
mount to an acceptance of Berlin's ar
rogant U-boat decree and virtually
withheld from Americans the free use
of the seven seas. Following the
richly deserved defeat of his policy
have come some of Americas most
glorious days upon the ocean and an
unparalleled development of our fleet
both in trade and war undertaken In
the righteous cause of freedom. The
folly of McLemore's act has been tri-
umphantly proved by the success of.
the counter course The penalty for
his endeayors he has just paid in a
complete political failure.-Philadel-

Impractical Socialism.

Socialsm's proposition Is Tets eat
our pie now" But as we see it the pie
IL not baked yet. Socialism's common
implication is that the world is rich
enough, that production of wealth is
already so adequate that the only inn
portant question is as to its distribu-
ton. But in fact II is still a poor
world Not even the opulent United
States showed a pre-war production
adequate to the reasonable needs of
It's inhabitants. And If anyone points
to the enormous production and con
sumption of these war years we
would fairly rest the case on that. If
we could believe that Socialism would
get the wheels turning as this war has
we should be very kindly inclined to-
ward It, But all the evidence points
In the opposite direction. War has
enormously stimulated individual eff
fort to produce and to save. Social
ism is always talking about shorter
work hours and an easier stroke. 1t
proposes to take the point off the in
elegant but time-tried old iron spur to
individual effoTt-namely the ambi
ton to get ahead in the world in
merely material way. Pretty gener-
ally 1t proposes bureaucratic manage
ment of industry. It's common impli
cation is that production of wealth
will fairly take care of itself, and all
the emphasis should be laid on dis
tribution-which is not promising for
increased production. War has stimu-
lated men by dlnusing a more init
mate sense of unity in a common lot,
while Socialism down to date has
conspicuously concerned Itself with
preaching division and hostility on
class lines. We do not care for it be-
cause we believe it would make poor
world poorer. Saturday Evening

SHARE OUR SUGAR
With The ALLIES
British Get Two Pounds a Month.
French Pound and Halt,
italians One Pound.
GERMAN SUPPLY PLENTIFUL.
All Nations Permit Use of Sweetening
for Home Preserving Purposes.

Americas new sugar ration of two
pounds a month per person is equita-
Bile when compared with the sugar ra-
ton enforced by rigid governmental
order in England, France and Italy, ma
lions with which we are sharing sugar.
Each Allied nation-in the matter of
sugar consumption-is sharing on near
est possible equal terms the hardships
imposed by greatly altered conditions
In the world sugar situation.
Formerly classed as luxury, sugar
Is now q war time essential. The fair
and Just division of this essential is
in the hands Of the various Allied
food controllers.
The United States Food Admlnistra-
ton has asked this nation to observe
q voluntary sugar ration OF two
pounds per person month.
In the other countries at war with
Germany sugar Is one of the scarce
articles on every menu-whether In
the households of both rich and poor,
or in the hotels.
England today has n sugar ration
of two pounds per month per person.
In France the ration is a pound and a
half and In Italy it is one pound
month. And the prices in allied coun-
tries are from two to three times as
high as in America.
If you go to a hotel In England or
France these days and order tea or
coffee they serve absolutely no sugar
with 1t. If you want sugar you must
bring 1t with you.
In England 1t is allowable to use
one-seventh of an ounce of sugar In
the preparation Of each luncheon. In
France many persons carry little sac
charine tablets about with them for
use In hotels and In England rich and
poor must take their sugar with them
IL they wish to have sweetened tea
while visiting friends.
Before the war started France had
625,000 acres devoted to sugar produc-
ton. BY 1917 the French sugar acre
age had decreased to 10000 acres
Today the French man or woman with a
sugar card has no assurance whatever
that he or she will be able to actually
buy sugar. To buy 1t, one must first
find II.
Italy tas Estate Sugar"
Especially drastic regulations govern
the use of sugar in Italy. Its manu-
facture, distribution and sale are close
" controlled, and in part actually
taken over by the state.
Saccharine is permitted to be sold
and used as a substitute for sugar and
the government manufactures mix
ture OF saccharlne and sugar called
estate Sugar" which is largely used.
German Sugar Ration Adequate.
Germany, before the war, produced
n great surplus Of sugar and exported
large quantities. To-day the Germans
have virtually gone out of the export
business, but have plenty of cheap
sugar for home use.
Wholesale prices prevalent in the
Allied nations, according to lnforma-
ton received by the United States
Food Administration are as follows:
England, 10 cents n pound; France,
II cents: Italy. 90 cents.
While these high prices are being
paid abroad the American wholesale
price is being held ut u cents.
