The argument put up by writer
in the Open Court of the Duluth
Herald few nights ago by fellow
who signed a Jewish name but
talked like damphool was most
nauseating and left rotten taste.
This fellow headed his filth The
Foreign Stacker and then went
on to show that he had an excuse
for being foreign Stacker" with
the statement that as long as he
was not citizen of this country
he was not compelled to live up to
the laws of the country. He
drew as parallel that he was not
a member of any society and con-
sequently would not live up to the
laws of any society. By remaining
a foreigner he was not compelled
to buy bonds and donate to the
several war activities; he would
not fight and his impression was
that all he was here for was to get
the money and hang onto it and
that this country had nothing to
say to him.
1t is to be hoped that now, hav-
ing vomitted up his sentiments,
Foreign Stacker will feel easier.
1t would be source of much graft
fcation to many if the Herald
would publish the real name of the
writer and let the public into the
secret of the national makeup of
this wart. Americans are today
giving the best there is in the
country, their sons, to make the
world safe for just such cattle as
this and his thanks are plainly ex-
pressed in the article written. We
never knew there were such thank.
less animals. No dog will bite the
hand that feeds it but some of
these two-legged hounds take par
ticnlar pride in showing their
teeth. A good American with an
axe could cure this fellow.

Wilson Puts
 OK. on Work
 or Fight Rule
Believes There Should be Country Wide Movement
 to Make Men Work.

Washington, June 13.--President Wilson has approved a nationwide compulsory work movement to supple ment Provost Marshal General Crow der's "wcrk or fight" regulation.
 In a letter to Governor Harrington of Maryland, made public here to- night, the president endorsed adopt ion by other states of the Maryland compulsory work law, under the which the work or fight principle is made applicable to all men between the ages of IS and 50.
 General Crowder also has approved the movement, and believes that it not only will give greater effect in his new regulation, but will further aid in the country in it's task of winning the war by reaching men below and above the draft ages.
 Without some such law as propos-- CT, either state or national, it was pointed out, men of draft age who can not pass the physical requirements for active or limited military military service cannot be made to engage in necessary occupations.

PRESIDENT ASKS SENATE ID PASS SUFF. AMENDMENT Wilson's Reply to French Union is Plea for Equal
 Suffrage. WOMEN's WAR WORK
 JUSTIFIES ACTION Full Reconstruction of World. for Which Allies are Fighting, be In. complete Without Equal
 Suffrage.

Washington, uJne -I!resident Wilson again has thrown the weight of his influence into the balance for the federal woman suffrage amend menU. lie expressed today the hope tha tthe senate would act favorably at this session on the resolution for submission of the amendment to the states passed by the house last Jan- uary, after he had given his endorse mem:
 When 9 delegation headed by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of the National Woman Suffrage asso- citation, and Dr.. Anna Howard Shaw, honorary president, called at the white house today, the president read to them a reply he asked Mrs. Catt to transmit to memorial presnted to them from the Frecnh nUion of Wo- man Suffrage. The French suffra- gists asked MT. Wilson to proclaim the principle of woman suffrage one of the fundamental rights of the fu- ture. His reply follows:
 Nation Owe Debt to Women
 q have read your message with the deepest interest, and I welcome the opportunity to say that I agree without reservation that the full and sincere democratic reconstruction of the world, for which we are striving and which we are determined to bring about at any cost, will not have been completely or adequately at tained until women are admitted to the suffrage and that only by that action can the nations of the world realize for the benefit of future gen erations the full ideal force of opin- ion CT the full humane forces of act ion.
 "The services of women during this supreme crisis of the worlds history have been of the most signal useful ness and distinction. The war could not have been fought without them or it's sacrifices endured. It is high time that some part of our debt of gratitude to them should be acknow- ledged and paid, and the only ack- nowledgement they ask is their ad- mission to the suffrage. Can we just ly refuse it?
 "As for America it is my earnest hope that the senate of the United States will give an unmistakable an- swer to this question by passing the suffrage amendment to our federal constitution before the end of the ses- sion."

.,,ors That Germans Tam asred With Airplanes l Denied by Commander.
h EXPLANATION Y OF CESSATION
|.,ert That Explosion on One Air. ,,.,a Which Burned Machin", Rronght to Light Defect in Notors Branded as False.

Twink at Eberts' field, at oLnoke,
 ;. stepped suddenly several days
 20 and will not be resumed for at
 ast 10 days.
 This was admitted yesterday ov-
 long distance telephone by Major
 ,t Frissell, commander of the avi&-
 mi field. but he refused to give an
 nplanaton.
 tt the same time, however, he de-
 ia rumors of the burning of an air
 lsne the tampering with motors by
 smsn agents and the discovery of Iitical defects in the motors on the Ijr ships used at the field for train te flyers.
 Flying has been stopped for sev-
 hal days" Major Frissell said, "and kay not be resumed for at least 10
 aw There is good reason for it
 ut the reason cannot be made pub
 ! now.
 However, there has been no acci- 'ent, and the rumor that the motors |e faulty is without foundation" Rumors of the cessation of prac- Dee flying at the fields became cur kM in Pine Bluff yesterday. The re- |er was said tc have been brought en by visitors to the field and by |ayelers. The reports are said to be Enmon talk in Lonoke.
 One rumor was that two cadets mar |vwly escaped death several days ago then their motor suddenly burst into Nhe flying and ignited the frame york of the airplane. The lyers succeeded in alighting before he flames reached them and escaped lath.
 This is said to have caused an in- lestigation which found that some of ne motors were faulty and that fly ng was stopped until new motors culd be installed on the machines.
 Another report was that many of he motors had been tempered with, fesumably by German agents, and bat flying had ceased until every rotor was given a thoro inspection. Major Frissel catgorically denied such, reports and seemed surpris- that they had been heard here. He eelared that the motor was a good ne and excellent for use on the prac- ce machines at the field
 one report was that an order had zen issued at Washington stopping ylng at all similiar schools using mllar motors until they could be Spected or changed.

Rather Grim HumOr

Washington, June 13.-In view of what has been happening during the past few weeks officials here tonight were inclined to regard as a bit of grim humor the report from Berlin by way of Holland that the German government is about to declare the eastern American coast a danger zone, and warn neutral shipping of it's purpose.
 Raiding submarines have already served warning of the danger in morc forceful terms than Berlin could for mulate in a diplomatic communica- tion. Several of the IS vessels sunk by the raiders were neutrals, carry ing no war supplies. Neutral govern ments are not likely to have over. looked that fact, warning or no warn. ing.
 It is recognized, however, that the forthcoming warning" may prove to be formal announcement of zone in American waters where ruthless sinking of all ships is to be the oroer of the day, forecasting a continuing menace off Atlantic ports thru regu- lar submarine patrols.
