Jobs for 1902 Cripples
Henry Ford Will Employ Them
No Matter How Manned

'Spscsal Correspondence Of The T,ibuu<o
DETROIT, Mich, Dec. 17.-There are
jobs waiting for exactly 4.062 MANNED
and crippled soldiers at the automobile
plant of Henry Ford, in this city. it
was announced to-day. No matter how
serious his disability may be, every
returned soldier will be given an op-
portunlty to earn his own living in one
OF the big Ford industrial plants.
Even men minus both arms Or both
legs will find remunerative employ
ment. At the present time, it is stated.
lS per cent of the working force of the
company is composed of men who are
partly disabled, it being Mr.. Ford's
theory that all a man wants is a
chance; he doesn't want charity.
Hundreds of soldiers from other
states, who have been mustered out of
service, are focking to Detroit for en-
ployment, according to the Board of
Commerce of Detroit Employers, how
ever, are giving first preference to those
whose homes are here.

WAR WORK CONTINUES.

The various organizations in this
country that have been engaged in war
work will not go altogether out of
business for some time. There is a
great quantity yet to do in relieving
suffering throughout Europe. All 9TH
er countries have responded to the
call for aid, of course, but America has
taken the lead in the great and SPLEEN
did amounts donated for the cause of
suffering in the war. Before the end
is reached it would not surprise any
one to know that at the very least a
full billion dollars in money has been
handed over to be used for suffering
men in the war; Not only has the Red
Cross led all the other organizations
in work performed, but in dollars rails
ed. In all, the Red Cross Society must
have had close to $500, 1000 donated,
and the others have had as much in all
lands. 1t is positively startling how
the world has gone down into its pock-
ct and helped every single working
unit that has been engaged in war
charities. The principal cause at the
present time for aid is in Belgium and
France and also in Italy, Rumania and
some Of the other Balkan states. When
1t is all over the world can look itself
in the face and say, "You have done a
good job"

THE HUDSON BRIDGE AGAIN.

The New York Sun of Monday con-
tanned another valuable contribution
from Major S. Wood McClave on the
immediate building of a Hudson river
bridge. The Hudson bridge has long
been a hobby with Major McClave,
and he deserves many hOnOrs for his
persistent optimism over this great en-
terprise Every man knows the great
need and demand for a bridge over the
Hudson. But the great boulder in the
way has been New York politics.
Bridge commissions have time and
again been formed, but they never get
anywhere because of the selfish greed
of New York city, afraid always that
the bridge will take it's people into
what would happen, of course, but the
big city would not be any the loser
because it would draw from New Jer-
sey far more than it would contribute
AS feeder for New York the bridge
would be overwhelmingly in it's favor.
Another thing Major McClave should
do is to allow the traffic tunnels to
take care OF their own deStlny. Iney
would never interfere with the bridge
project nor be one-tenth as valuable.
All that the gallant and loyal major
has to say is to his credit and to the
honor of New Jersey. But the bridges
and traffic tunnels should not be
placed in the position of rival enter
prises Tunnels could facilitate traf-
fic at any given point-at One Hun
bred and Twenty-fifth street, for in
stance A bridge could not be built
above One Hundred and Fifty-seventh
street To associate bridge proposals
from all thought of tunnel talk would
be the better plan. In the meantime
everybody is pulling for the McClave
bridge plan.

THE RED CROSS.

The great and noble work done by
the Red Cross organizations in the
war has met the admiring approval of
wondering world. Its appeal to the
heart of the people of every land was
immediate, liberal and sincere. In the
distribution of its labors in behalf of
the sick and wounded in the war zone
and out of it, it showed no favors.
Red Cross workers and field members
were as keen to relieve suffering
among enemy wounded as on the other
side. This was the universally APP
plauded attitude which has made Red
Cross work so generally acceptable to
the peoples of all nations. There waS
never such an exhibition of unselfish
The whole. world has looked on, and
wondering, given as it marveled, given
freely and magnanimously. The fame
of Red Cross will go down in history
as the great avenue through which the
heart and the tears, the love and the
thy of mankind found expression and
gave vent to the most feeling exhibit
ton of genuine goodness ever record
ed in the book of mans love for his
fellow beings.
And now that the work of this great
orderly organization is drawing to a
closes when it will no longer be neces-
sary to fill its treasury with love
money for the suffering, it must finally
cease all appeals and close its doors
against further operations on a large
scale. 1t will not disintegrate, but
merely reduce it's ranks. The little
chapters and branches in every city,
town and village have given their
whole heart in the Red Cross cause,
and every stitch and fold and bandage
in this glorious labor has been a treas
ure laid up in heaven. God bless the
Red Cross

TOO MUCH IN THE PAPERS.

That wise publication, Life, this
week touches upon significant ten
dency of the times. 1t deplores the
fact that there is too much unauthen-
tic stuff printed in our newspapers.
The thought is timely. Never in all
the history of this country has newspa-
per and periodical publicity and criti-
cism run riot with such amazing indif-
ference to facts. 1t is all very well to
print news when it's truth is known.
That is what newspapers are for. The
reliability of news should be of first
Importance always. But nowadays it
requires only a hint to spread some
really unimpOrtant happening or Cos
sip on the front page The criticism
of Life was inspired through the UNI
ending criticisms of the American gov
eminent since the close of the war and
long before it ended. The fact is, the
war ended with all of the desires of
this country satisfied The only thing
that did not happen right was that
some other group of American leaders
were not handling the throttle at the
time the finish came, or during the
record breaking drive that brought
about the windup in four months jig
time.
1t would seem to all minds that wish
to be fair that no man, no matter of
what party utilization, would logically
have the ambition to make the very
best showing for America in the final
settlement that could be brought
about. But the contending forces of
opposition to those in authority are so
busy trying to establish theoretical
processes of their own that such a
thing as having proper direction is al
most out of the question. AS for the
President he is perhaps pursuing the
wisest course by remaining silent
through all of the great storm of pro-
test. AS a matter of fact, the Ameri-
can people are going to get a wonder
full showing out of this war. Only
a fool or a knave would try to pro-
duce any other result. But, thank
heaven, this thing of getting personal,
individual glory out of this war is a
matter that is going to adjust itself.
Humbuggery is not going to win any
man or set of men selfish fame 1t is
not written in the book of things that
are to be. Self abnegation is the only
test of what man really is. There
are few men in the country who
have put this virtue aside in the scram-
Bile for honors and the glory of saying,
81 told you so''

is WILSON IN DIsFAvoR 2

Having won the diSfavOr of all the
leaders of the day who oppose the
Presidents ideals, there is little else
now for him to do but go ahead to the
Paris conference and forget all his
other troubles. 1t does not matter that
we have contributed largely to the win
ming of the war-that is mere side
issue. 1t does not matter that the
world at large is willingly according
America a place in the sun at the mo-
ment. None of these things is relevant
to the time or place, and are entirely
out of order. The thing most sought
at this time is to keep the President
away from the peace conference, prin-
cipally for the reason that everybody
is afraid he will say something that
will be noticed by the thinking minds
that he will be rash enough to really
do this-but he might So, backing up
this fear, the word is passed to keep
him away if possible, for it would
never to do have the President of the
United States given any notice over
there because we really have nothing
in common with Europe. This is their
war. What we did in the way of con-
tributing couple of million men, many
billions of dollars, ammunition in such
small quantities that it soon piled up
along the trenches of France and
couldn't even be used-that is, only
about enough to push the Huns back
far enough to have them admit they
were whipped. AS for our getting men
over the pond, we did not have hand;
in that at all. They just got a start
and shove and over they went, U
boats or no U boats. That's how we
got 'em over. We really did not have
any business in the war, and have moth
ing to say in it's windup. Mr.. Wilson
is merely going over to cut slice, and
he'd better watch out, or they will cut
him to the quick. True, the cables
through the Associated Press this week
announce that the fourteen points are
all entirely satisfactory to the allied

THE VENGEANCE OF JUSTICE.

The most difficult problem before the
world today is to find proper basis of
treatment of Germany for her diaboli-
cal processes in the war. Already
there has appeared a tendency to ex-
press sort of sympathy for the Ger
man PEOPLE; they are not to be
blamed, these tender hearted ones say
E'hey took orders from their autOcratic
rulers, obeyed the military laws, faced
death on the firing line because to re-
fuse meant the death penalty for trail
tors. There is some force behind this
thought, yet it must be swept aside in
looking at the stern decree of justice.
The people of Germany had long been
In revolt against autocracy, yet they
never at any time asserted themselves
with any emphasis. They folded their
the situation, all the time knowing war
was the daily thought, the hourly prep
aration. They never moved with any
coordination of the popular will. The
power of the throne dashed the Ger
man into submission and silenced those
who dared assert themselves. Feedom
of speech existed only in limited de-
gree. 1t had neither power nor scope.
Leaders are today emerging from Ger
man prisons for "going too far" in
voice against governmental policies.

Presidents diplomacy does not please
his opponents, and he is generally very
unpopular because he attends strictly
to the cOuntry's business and has put

cHRlsTlANiTWs TRIUMPH.

The beginning of the great war
that has just closed through victory
over it's original instigators brought
out the fact that it was a trial of the
faith of Christianity. The teachings
of the Christian faith were all against
the principles laid down by the brag-
CART nation that appealed in behalf of
cause they claimed God himself was
defending for them. The Kaiser never
appealed except on the basis of his
being on the side of God. His almost
sacriligious association of his deeds
with that of the Deity became pro-
verbal. The war had not gone far
before the world began to doubt that
such partnership could exist as the
German boosted If it did exist, the
principles of Christianity could not
stand. If the horrors of war were to
be conducted on the scale of frightful-
ness with which the Germans defiled
Belgium and be justified in the name
of war and God, where did Christian
ity stand. 1t had preached love and
tenderness and kindness to women
and innocent children. 1t had preach
ed that sin should be punished not
excused The rape of Belgium started
the first thought that Christianity was
a failure. JAS the war proceeded,
doubt gave way to more serious con-
sideration of the true meaning of the
war. The principle of the German side
was SO outstandingly bad that former
IN uiy IN
and Germany stood finally convicted
of the greatest crimes in the history
of mankind. She stood revealed by
her acts as the most brutal and selfish
people that ever lived. The ideals of
Germany were not based on their so
called kultur, but rather on the sell
fish desire to rule all mankind. To
this end they looked to see their long
organized military system carry them
through to victory, regardless of cost
or other considerations. Germany
could net lose so long as she was on
Gods side. Her error was not in hav-
ing God on her side. The longer the
war continued the more surely was it
being indicated from day to day that
rather that it was being proven. And
so, when America finally entered the
struggle, not to become one of the bel
Igerents with the selfish motive of in
demnity and spoils, the sense of APP
probation for Christianity became
more and more strong among the other
nations opposed to Germany and her
allies The great war soon revealed
another spirit behind the allied cause.
1t was not being waged for selfish ends
but for the freedom of humanity and
really for the freedom of Germany
herself. Blinded by the promises of a
half-witted emperor the people de-
ceived, Germans now saw a new and
a strange light to them. They saw the
false hero they had worshiped. The
divine inspiration of the Kaiser was
proving itself fallacious and mislead-
ing. With amazing swiftness and GER
tainty the end came so soon after
America entered the war that Christi
anity saw the light of its redeemed
and newly promised light unto the
world The brotherhood of man was
once more remolded under the banner
of world democracy, and peace came
in on the banner of justice and to the
honor of all peoples. 1t was triumph
of Christianity, not test of it.
