FIVE YEARS TO
RESTORE BUSINESS
TO NORMAL CONDITION

Paris, March 6.-The damaged in
.dustries and the upheaved and ex-
haused farm lands Of France, it is
thought now, may be restored to
their full productive capacity within
five years after the conclusion Of
peace. with the exception Of denuded
forests and the most gravely wasted
land in the immediate proximity, Of
the line where the front has been
practically stationary for more than
three years.
These are some Of. the elements up
on which they count to make up for
what France will have lost: CONTINUE
ed and developed use Of female labor
in industries; entrance Of youths into
active business n industry at an
earlier age; greater activity and con-
tsequent greater productive capacity of
all categores Of workers: and an
enormo!s extension OF the modern Ia
bor-saving equipment in the factory
and >on the farm.
The development Of water power
will contribute immensely to fiji tho
void in industrial facilities while Ave
years recruits Of boys coming to age
for active participation in the coun-
try's affairs is expected to replace at
least a third Of the wastage in human

Tho fun electoral franchise can be conferred on
women only by constitutional amendment or by a gem

are created by statute apd not directly by tho constitu-

s The North Dakota law follows that Of Illinois on
the same subject, and is based on the same principle.

DENIALS OF DISLOYALTY

Every little while somebody rises to proclaim IN a
loud voice that this or that group of people are not dis
loyal. and that all statements to the contrary are falae
and sa ndcroua.
Particularly vociferoun are those who from time to
time proclaim that the farmers are loyal. If any per-
son has at any time asserted, or suggested, or intimat-
Cd, that the farmers are disloyal. we have not been able
to come across anything OF the sort in our reading, nor
have we heard that any such abatement has been made
from the public platform, or in any other way. II such
q statement has been made, We have no hesitation in
saying that the person who has made it is = liar.
The farmers OF the country. taking them as a group,
are loyal TO the nation. So are the mercha nts, and the
hlacksn,iths' and the lawyers, and the plumbers. and the
doctors. and the bankers. The people OF these groups
and Of all others cngagcd In the multitude Of legitimate
activities Of the country. have no need to declare their
loyalty by word Of mouth. They have demonstrated 1T
and are demonstrating it daily by their acts. Whether
on the farms. in the shops, in the stores in the counting
houses, or wherever they arc, they are sending their
own flesh and blood to the front to stem the tide of
tyranny; they arc willingly giving Of their substance in
support OF the cause OF right: they are making sacri-
ficcs and arc putting forth vallan. efforts. They are
doing these things because they feel themselves to be
IN very truth part and parcel Of the great democracy
OF the world, and because they recognize the obliga-
tons which rest upon them. All honor to then, all OF
them.
But the fact that all Of theac groups, taken as
groups, are loyal. doe. not change the fact that in each
OF them are to be found GONE who are disloyal And
when there are found thoae who place personal case or
private advantages above the duty that honorable men
owe to the world and the race. no matter what their
occupation, they arc disloya!, and all the protestations
that arc made in their behalf cannot change that fact.

layer Of the state, according to rec
ords available at Purdue University.
