Government figures indicate that
not less than six hundred thousand
men trained and experienced in farm
work have been taken from the farms
of America since the beginning of this
country's participation in the war.
These figures are nminous. With six
hundred thousand farm workers sud
denly shifted into the class of nom
producers it requires no imagination
to foresee that 1918 will show a more
grievous shortage Of farm labor than
did 1917. Every one knows how Sc
we're was that shortage last season.
No one can fail to realize what all
this will inevitably mean in the mat
ter of farm production.
With this definite handicap in sight
for the farm crops, the back yard and
vacant lot garden becomes more than
ever war garden and a national ne
cessity. The single factor most vital
to military success is food. Food is
the one thing for which there is no
substitute. When Germany was cut
off from the nitrate fields of Chile,
German chemists and engineers COM
mandeered the nitrogen of the air for
creation of the nitric acid essential in
the manufacture of explosives. Wood
pulp has been substituted for cotton
fiber in the making of gun cotton,
and in divers other ways science, by
devising substitutes, has overcome
shortage. No scientist has yet dis
covered substitute for food. The
only solution of the food problem is
an increased production, and to make
this possible the home gardeners of
America face 1918 with RESPONSE
bility far greater than that with which
they set about their work last sea
son.
Volume is not the sole requirement
of food production in this time of
emergency. Conservation of trans
portation is equally important. So
far as possible, all food should be
grown in the immediate neighborhood
of its place of ultimate use. 1t is
imperative to the national welfare that
no avoidable strain be placed on the
Transportation facilities of the coun-
try. Shipments of foodstuffs require
freight cars that are urgently needed
for shipments of munitions, fuel and
other supplies vital to the needs of
nation at war. Unnecessary shipments
must be eliminated. This means pro-
duction of food where it is to be used.
This involves the cultivation of food
gardens at every home and on every
inch of vacant land in the neighbor-
hood of cities. towns and villages. Last
year the national emergency food gar

accurately indicates the conditions
under which we were developed than
is sometimes possible by other kinds

some folks who know about US, try

you cannot fool all of the people all

TRoMBoNEs OUT OF STEP.

Colonel C. is fine commander,
but not a musician. He sent for the
chief musician of his regimental band
one day and delivered this scathing
criticism:
Il notice a lack of uniformity about
the band which must be regulated.
Yesterday morning they were out on
parade, and the largest man in the
band was playing a little bit of an in
strument-iute or something of the
kind-and you had the big drum
played by small man. That sort of
thing doesn't look well, and must be
attended to. l want the small men to
play small instruments and the big
men the big instruments. And an
other thing-I want the trombone
players to slide their instruments in
and out in unison. 1t annoys me to
see them all out of step with their
hands. s."-Pittsburg Chronicle Dis

IN sustaining the Nerdlct OF jury,
the evidence of the four cases in their
entirety must shake confidence in the
justice of the convictions"
Up to State Supreme Court.
The commission in detailing condi-
tions in San Francisco at the time
of Moneys trial, says:
There can be no doubt that Mooney
was regarded as a labor agitator of
malevolence by the public utilities of
San Francisco and the util-
tiles against which he directed his agi-
tion sought to get him"
No question of the jury's good faith
is raised in the report, but it declares
that at is because of subsequent de-
velopments that doubt is based upon
the justice of the convictions"
The California supreme court is
confined in its consideration of the
appeal now pending, the report says,
to only matters found in the record
and if the supreme court confirms the
conviction, the relief will have to be
supplied thru executive action"
international Aspects of Case.
In conclusion the report discussed
the international aspects of the case,
saying:
1T is now we'll known that the at
tention to the situation in the east
was first aroused thru meetings of
protest against the Mooney convic-
ton in Russia. From Russia and the
western states. protests spread to the
entire country until it has gathered
momentum from many sources, sources
whose opposition to violence is un-
questioned, whose devotion to our
cause in the war is unstinted.
THE liberal sentiment of Russia
was aroused, the liberal sentiment of
the United States was aroused be-
cause the circumstances of Mooney 5
/ prosecution. in the light Of his his
tory, led TO the belief that the terri
| bic and sacred instruments of crimi-
nal justice were consciously or uncon-
sciously made use of against labor
[ by its enemies in an industrial con-
| fiict.
Beyond the State Limits.
However strange, or however un-
/ expected it may be, the just disposi-
tion of the Mooney case thus affects
| influence far beyond the confines of
! California and California can be de-
pended upon to see the wider implica-
tions of the case.
With the local aspects, with the
political and journalistic conflict which
the case has occasioned, neither the
commission nor the country at large
is concerned But the feeling of dis
quietude aroused by the case must be
needed. for, if unchecked, it impairs
the faith that our democracy protects
the lowliest and even the unworthy
against false accusations.
War is fought with moral as well
as material resources. We are in this
war to vindicate the moral claims
of unstained processes of law, how
ever slow at times, such processes may
be. These claims must be tempered
by the fire of our own devotion to
them at home"

FEDERAL COMMISSION REPORTS THAT
MOONEY WAS CONVICTED UNJUSTLY
President Is Asked Save Him Death Penalty
Discredited Evidence Presented at Trial. Corporation
Feud Barred in Case That Has
International Attention.

In a report to President Wilson the
federal commission which has been in
vestigating the cases growing out of
the San Francisco bomb explosions
during the preparedness parade. rec
commended that the President use his
good offices to induce the California
authorities to bring about a new trial
of Thomas ]. Mooney, now under death
sentence.
When informed of this report in the
San Francisco jail, Mooney was over
joyed and expressed confidence that
this would lead to his freedom.
In a report to the President, the
commission which has conducted an
exhaustive investigation Of the trials
of Mooney, Warren K. Billings, Mrs.
Rena Mooney and Israel Weinberg de-
clared that this could be done by post
poning the execution of the death SEN
tence imposed on Mooney awaiting the
outcome of new trial based upon pros
ecution under one of the untried in
dictments against him.
Industrial Feud Is Blamed.
A history of the four cases is given
in the report and the conclusion
reached that the Mooney case soon
resolved itself into a new aspect of
an old industrial feud instead of a
subject demanding calm search for the
truth"
After telling of the conviction of
/ Billings and Mooney, the report points
out that Mrs. Mooney and Weinberg
/ facing the same evidence were ac-
quilted because the testimony of Frank
/ Oxman, the main witness Of the state,
/ had been discredited before their
/ trials.
, I'VE find in the atmosphere sur
rounding the prosecution and trial Of
the case ground for dlsquietude,' the
statement says. This feeling is re-
I enforced by one factor Of controlling
/ importance. The most damaging tes-
/ timony produced against Mooney came
from a witness named ONman. After
] Nooney's conviction there came to
light letters confessedly written by
/ Oxman prior to his having been called
TO testify. The plain import Of these
letters is an attempt by ONman to
suborn perjury in confederation of the
vital testimony which he was to give
and which in fact he did give against
Mooney.
0Nman Story Discredited.
1T is true that ONman was tried
for attempted subornation of perjury
and acquitted, but this is beside the
present consideration. In fact, after
the exposure of Oxman, the district
attorney did not call him, tho avail,
able, as a witness N the trial OF
Mrs Mooney. When Oxman was dis.
credited the verdict against Mooney
was discredited.
Thus it is that the evidence sub,
mitted on the four trials, taken to-
rether, aimed as 1t was at the estab-
lshment of a single issue: Their joint
participation in the crime leaves the
mind in the greatest uncertainty as
to the completely Of the accused While
each record in itself presents evidence

their place as precious gems in appropriate
settings; to make houses express not only
their makers, but their occupants, is a live
lier adventure, and one that naturally woulc
lead to the strengthening of the now fragile
bond holding family to its home. Artists
undertaking 1t must have not only the ability
to do good work as sculptors, painters anc
architects, but also the ability to read the
human mind and divine the human soul. An
intellectual artist and one of deep and hexi-
bic sympathies must be chosen to interpret
that temple of the living gods, dwelling
place.
"Caro-Delvallle seems to answer these ext
gent requirements. Passing from one to an
other of his profoundly considered and bril-
llantly executed paintings, one may discern
in their very unevenness of appeal, in theil
varying degrees of eXpressveness, the pres
ence in the artist of personal emotion
penetrating the externals Of his product and
controlling its power to move others"
\ WRITER in "The international
L Studio" notes that the artist, in the
October number of "The New France
defined exactly what is required in fresco
painting. In the course of this article
Mr.. Caro-Delvaille wrote:
"Fresco requires not an imitation of reality
but. it's transcription in more intelligibl,
terms. 1t is calculated to present it's subject
from distance, playing an architectural as
we'll as a structural role It must be one
with the room; it must neither bore into the
wall deeper than its deepest shadows, nor be
more brilliant than it's most brightly lighted
regions. In word it must stay fat. Now
the less apparent be the charoscuro of the
fresco, the better will the quality of it's tones
preserve its limpdity and cooring power
Thus fresco gives intensive power to plastic
eloquence; line, modelling, color, values-all
if separated by analysis and syntheti-
cally reassembled."
