BY this time Hale has received his
records but there are thousands OF
other men fighting overseas who are
still waiting for supply OF canned
music. However, the Photographs
Records Recruiting corps believes
that during the week Of the national
drive, more than q million records
will be accumulated for distribution
among our soldiers and sailors. The
local committee In Richmond is par

in the campaign and the members
call on all who now have Stacker rec
ords to send them to the different
talking machine stores or the Kresge

NEW YORK, N Y, Oct. 30.-The
National Phonograph-Records Recruit

East 10th street, New York city, has
sent out a call to photograph owners
to help win the war by turning over
all their Stacker records"-those dis
carded or idle in the bottom Of the
pile-to help the corps comply with
many requests from our boys who
crave canned music. One such appeal
is from Raymond N. Hale, now serv-

who writes:

one thing that we miss greatly to

Earlham college day students who
were not able to enter Bundy dormi-

closed to outsiders, have been recetv-
ing their assignments by telephone,
and making weekly doorstep only
calls on their professors when per-

is thought that the entire enrolment
will be able to proceed without delay
with their regular work when the Ian

Various forms OF amusements have
been arranged by those students who
have been confined to the campus,
and by this means the quarantine rul-
ing has been very successfully en-

TO AID RETURNED
SOLDIERS

I The Federal Board for Voca-
tional Education has been or
ganized as a means of equip
ping wounded and otherwise dis
abled soldiers to return to the
ranks of industry. David F.
Houston, Secretary Of Agricul-
ture, is chairman of the board,
and other members include
William G. Redfield, Secretary
of Commerce; and William B.
Wilson, Secretary of Labor.
James P. Munroe, of Boston, is
vice chairman of the board; and
Claxton, Commissioner of Ed
ucation; Charles A. Greathouse,
and Arthur B. Holder.
The board aims to fit men for
"a variety of trades and to give
them an opportunity, after their
training, to enter the ranks of
skilled labor. Lack of funds will
not prevent the men from OBJ
tanning the training they need,
for they will receive family al

TRAINING ROOM FAULTS
Experience of British Ministry
of Munitions Shows Dangers
in Preparing Workers for
Their Jobs.

At this time, when intensive
labor is demanded in all lines of
war work, the Section on In
dustrial Training, Council of
National Defense, sends out the
warning, Beware of bad train
ing rooms"
When a representative of the
British ministry of munitions
said a year ago that some man.
facturers seem to think that
they need only set up training
class he called attention to a
tendency Americans will do well
to avoid.
Three or four cases where
time has been wasted have come
to notice recently in the United
States. One large airplane fac
tory put a Misunderstanding
teacher in charge of it's train
ing room. This man persisted
in teaching workers to make nail
boxes and school exhibits and
caused them to practice with
certain tools that would never
be used in actual airplane pro-
duction. "Never mind speed, !"
he is reported as saying. "The
Government has the money and
what it wants is accuracy" His
pupils learend to loaf in the
training room and to continue
loafing in the factory. His sue
cessor will increase production
from 20 to 40 per cent.
Another director of training,
to whom was entrusted much
machinery, could not forget the
slow methods of general tech
nical instruction and planned to
deliver monthly to the factory
only 80 or 100 mechanics when
there is a monthly demand for
1000 skilled workers and 1000
other workers, part of whom
are semiskilled. A third factory
with 1000 workers has had a
training room for five weeks in
which it prepares women for
work, instructing them in SIM
pie operations that should re-
quire only the most casual dir
ection for beginners.
Emphasis is now put on the
fact that every training depart
ment should be developed with
the needs of the employment Of
flee in mind. Officers and man.
ayers should visit training de-
partments frequently so as to
assure cooperation between the
trainers and the foremen of the
factories. 1t is an axiom that
a good training room is worth
20 per cent Of the pay roll.

MEXICO TO FURNISH
FARM HELP
Labor Supplies Also Available
in Porto Rico and the Ba-
hamas for Agriculture
Next Season.

i
supply is likely to be largely ag-
umented by workers from the
West Indies and Mexico.
The constant demands of war
industries in the years before
and after America entered the
war, and the operation of the
draft, have steadily drawn
young men away from the farms
To compensate for this, the
labor of boys and Of men ordi-
narily past the age for active
service came into general use,
and in dairy and truck farming
it was found that strong women
could do effective work.
For maximum production,
however, every effort is being
made to draw upon the most
readily available labor surplus
that of neighboring countries
to the south. To do that the
Government has already taken
action.
Mexico, weakened and impov-
erished by years of revolution,
has 100000 able-bodied labor
ers, it is estimated who will be
most useful i naugmenting the
forces of common labor on the
railroads and on the FARMS. The
Department of Labor now per-
mits Mexicans to enter the coun-
try by any of the Gulf ports
and also by Atlantic ports as far
north as Charleston.
The Bahamas also provide a
source of common labor. The
war has practically ruined nor
NAL industries in the Bahamas
by the havoc it has wrought in
the carrying trade, and, more
over, the laborers there are
within easy reach. It is thought
that large numbers can be
brought to America to work on
the farms.
Porto Rican laborers are also
eager to work in America, where
wages are higher and working
conditions better than on the is
land.
Many of these workers will
be particularly valuable, for
they have a knowledge of sugar.
cane handling that makes their
utilization certain in Louisiana.
The closest cooperative COM
munity effort, the most equit-
able distribution of farm labor
within States, the wholehearted
effort Of farmers to "break in"
new hands, and the importation
of as much of the foreign labor
as possible will be needed to
maintain a farm labor supply
commensurate with the in
creased production demanded
for 1919.

"LET US HAVE PEACE"

A monster is slowly raising its head
throughout this country which. unless
beaten down Immediately, will become
the most dangerous enemy that the
cause OF civilization has yet been
called upon TO face. This evil that
threatens is to be found in the desire
for peace at whatever cost. 1t is the
old "peace at any price" canker raised
to the Nth power.
1t is easy To dispose of this, as yet
furtive but steadily increasing, desire
for peace by pinnlng to it the label OF
German propaganda. But this will not
suffice
That the world is war weary is only
too true. France and England have
had this blood sickness on the part of
their people to contend with for long
time. Its effect on Russia has been
demonstrated.
We, in America, have but com
menced our share Of suffering and sac
rifce. II this revulsion Of feeling is
allowed to spread before the road is
half travelled there can be no doubt as
to our destination. Open hostility to
England, frank sympathy with Ger
many, conscientious" or other Objec-
lions to war, are as nothing In their
effect upon our part in the struggle
and the destiny of the wOrld-which
now admittedly rests upon our shout
ders-compared to this desire for the
wars ending simply that peace may
reign. Peace today, with Germany I'M
defeated, would be a living menace to
America as a nation and to every man,
woman and child who wish to continue
to be known as Americans.

WHAT THE VICTORY OR
DEFEAT OF GERMANY
MEANS TO EVERY AMERICAN

Contributed by ALBERT PAYSON
TERHUNE, author and globe-trotter,
to the National Security Leagues
campaign of Patriotism Through Edu-
cation)
Germany's victory would mean all
that the alarmists have said-the set
back of humanity, democracy, ciyiliza-
ton, rights Gilman, etc. But, to Amer
lea, 1t would mean infinitely more. ~
1t would mean our first national de
feat; and, thus, would smash our per-
feet record for victories-a record az
old as our nation-a record that means
more than the right to brag. Even as
a beaten army never wholly regains Its
old form-eyen as a beaten ring cham
pion sinks at once into desuetude-so
our nation tits traditions of victory
gomez would suffer far worse deteriora-
ton than the mere fact Of defeat could
inflict
1t would mean that the man who has
GlSkeQ I'LL III nlS Country SlTukSlc IOr
Right could never again feel his former
calm certainty that Right must tri-
umph. Thus, the moral tone of the in
dividual, as well as of the nation,
would inevitably be lowered.
This country has never embarked In
war of conquest. From IT'S to the
present we have fought for Liberty or
for Union or for the Oppressed-ever
for some sterling principle of right.
From childhood we have been taught
to believe that the high unselfishness
of our war aims has given us the vic
tory. We have seen the decay or de-
struction Of men and nations that have
battled for dominion-as Germany Is
now battling Should We fail In this,
our mightiest war for the Right, the
average man must lose forever the
simple Faith which has led our dear
country from nothingness to its pres
emit estate. For that Faith, more than
for anything else, our sacrifice is a
hundredfold justified.
