0NE IF MAIN REASONS
 FO8 GERMAN AGGRESSION

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, March 15.-The fact that Germany's home supplies of iron ore are limited coupled with misgivings as to diff culties of postwar imports, is believed to be at the bottom of the clamor raised in German industrial circles for the possession of the ore-fields in "Naboth's vineyard" just across the French border-the basins of Briev and Longwy.
 Professor K. Hager. the new rector of the Munich technical high school ln paper read the other day before King Ludwig of Bavaria and a dis tinguished audience, told his hearers that the ore supplies of Germany would only hold out 66 years longer at the rate of the present annual output of 19,290OO0 tons. This is without taking tRto account the imports, which before the war averaged 18,9O0,O00 tons annually
 As for coal, of which Germany uses 1579OO,OOO tons annually, there are supplies for the next 2,5OO years. the professor said. He added that Ger many had three times as much iron ore as England, and double the amount of coal.
 To deal with the iron situation after the war, Professor Hager made the fol. lowing suggestions: CD to acquire foreign ore fields, CD to raise the im- portation of foreign ore by means of tariff regulations, (3) to reduce ex- ports of iron also old iron, (4) to make in old iron state monopoly, and (5) to reduce the iron consumption in Germany itself to minimum. To at tain the latter end he urges the use of ferro-concrete, wood, china and ce- ment articles wherever possible in- stead of cast iron, while it would also be advisable to perfect the present methods for preventing rust.

usE PRACTICAL METHODS
 FUR RELIEF OF SUFFERING

LOS ANGELES, March 15.-Suffer- ing in homes, due to the induction Of men in the families into the military service has been prevented, in many instances by check system handled through the public schools, according to a report on wark work in the schools just issued here.
 The report states that in order to get list of homes where suffering or hardship might have followed the draft, teachers were asked to reo"~ from the pupils in each room whether any members of their families had joined the service. If they had reIa- tlVes Ill the service, the teacher filled out simple card, adding checks which indicated whether, from her acquaintance with the pupil and his circumstances, any possibility of hardship existed.
 The cards that indicated such a pos sibillty We're turned over to the re- lief division of the Red Cross, and the cases investigated, many families be- ing thus saved from real hardship and suffering,
 The plan, it was said by the report,

had the advantage that the pupils did not know of it's operation, and as the queries were made quietly, no one was wounded by any suspicion of mis- placed charity, while others who needed help were found. A complete survey of the city was made, it was reported, without any expense and within few days of it's initiation.

situation had been noted, permitting the restoration of the earlier rations of milk for children, one quart for those up to two years, three quarters of a quart for those below the age of four and pint for children between four and six years. Expectant moth CTS also receive a ration of unskimmed milk Skinned milk could be ob- tained by other privileged ones. not by the general population.

GERMANY ALSO BOASTS
 ITS FOOD ADMINISTRATOR

NEW YORK, March 15-German newspapers of the first half Of Jan uaTy recently received here have sus, piciously little to say on the food situ. ation, which for two years before was an important topic for discussion in practically all the Berlin newspapers. The coming political strikes, evoked by food difficulties and the prospect of an indefinite prolongation of the war through the attitude of the Ger man delegates at Brest-Litovsk, was. perhaps, casting it's shadow before and causing the censor to discourage pub. lication of news calculated to augment the dissatisfaction of the working peo, pie.
 A decree of the Prussian commits sion on food administration mentioned however that mortality during recent months had been as high as fifty per cent above that of 1913 and, for that reason, prescribed increased rations fer tubercular patients, upon whom the effects of undernutrition are felt with particular severity.
 Food Director Waldow launched a illumination against various offending municipalities, which were paying above the maximum prices for various kinds of food in order to assure a sup ply for their inhabitants and were thereby, he declares, contributing largely to the steady driving up of prices and to the disregard of the food laws.
 The newspapers, none of which is a sriend of the food dictator, retorted very sharply that it was impossible for the municipalities to secure enough food to feed their populations without disregarding the maxima, which is a general practice through Germany, and declared that Minister Waldow could find, if he sought them, lawbreakers enough among the Prussian state of fees and war food bureaus.
 Vorwaerts, for example remarked that the central administration of the Province of Brandenburg distributed flour among its employees for Christ mas at price equivalent to eighty cents per pound; that the Berlin police prefecture sold butter to officials at the equivalent of $2.12 per pound; that state factory gladdened it's em- ployes with marmalade at 75 cents, and beef for $l.1S a pound and that one of the food distribution bureaus under Minister Waldow secured for it's employees as a Christmas favor a very poor quality of pork, which it sold to them at S1.75 per pound.
 The principal rations of the Berlin population were still on the same meagre scale as for months-namely a pound of potatoes per day, four pounds of bread, one half pound of meat and about an ounce of butter per week.

LITTLE ROND.HOLDERS.

People who have bought $50 or 500
bonds don't brag about it. as a rule.
They feel a certain glow of patriotic
satisfaction. But they are humble.
They think they have done very little.
If these bond-holders thoroughly
realized what they have done they
wouldn't feel so modest about it. For
they have put over a big thing, and
done their country incalculable serv-
ice.
The little fellows" are not the ex-
ception. They are the typical Amer
lean bond-buyers There were 3,00O,-
600 OF them in the first Liberty Loan
There were 100000 of them in the
second There were $4,000, 900 OF
them in the third. Allowing for dupli-
cations. there must be now at least
20,0OO,OOO Americans in possession of
baby bonds
Their small subscriptions amount
altogether to $2,50O,OO0,0 1000 That is
an immense sum. 1t is nearly three
times the total annual expense of our
national government before the war.
1t is about one-fifth of our huge war
bill for the first year Of the war And
il has been saved out of the current
earnings of the bond-purchasers, with
out making any demands whatever on
our banks.
These humble investors are the very
backbone of our war finance.

IDLE CAPITALISTS.

Maryland is taking its anti-loafing
law very much in earnest. 1t is put
ting the rich to work along with the
poor. II has no more regard for a
retired capitalist than a hobo. In
deed. the authorities seem to be go
ing out of their way to make life mis-
cradle for men who in happier times
would have been honored as lead
ing citizens"
In Baltimore last week they arrest
ed James Madison Thompson. a de-
scendant of President James Madi-
son, a former head of a big banking
and brokerage house. His only APP
parent occupation was playing golf
and attending to his social duties He
was ordered to appear in court and
give reason why he should not be
punished as a "loafer."
Il is significant OF the new order of
things that the alleged culprit himself
took the matter seriously. He i'm
mediately got busy collecting evil
dence that he'd been trying to get into
some branch of government war serv-
ice
What a world-when a retired cap
italist can't be let alone 10 enjoy his
moneyed leisure, And the worst of
it is. he finds nightly little sympa-
thy. even among his own class.

TRICKS AND HIGHWAYS.

Wherever trains of loaded army
trucks have moved across the coun-
try, they have left a trail of broken
pavements and weakened bridges and
culverts The same sort of damage is
being done in many sections by the
trains of heavy private trucks press
ed into service for interurhan haul
ing.
1t is evident that most of our pres
ent rural highways are not fitted for
this traffic They were built for farm
wagons and for pleasure automobiles
Hundreds of miles will have to be re-
built now before they are of any fur
Their use for any purpose, owing to the
sad condition in which the big trucks
have put them. Thousands of miles
will need to be strengthened before
they can be used for truck routes.
All new construction must be adjust
ed to the new demands likely to be
made on any public highway hereafter.
Ii isn't merely n temporary emer-
gency. The heavy truck has come to
stay. Truck trains hereafter will be
used on an enormous scale as feed
ers of the railroads and tappers of
rural sections and interior communi-
ties II is n new and valuable devel-
opment in our national transporta-
tion system.
1t is unfortunate that il calls for the
virtual remaking of our whole ma
tional highway system. The process
will be costly But it will bring am
pie compensations.
