I gathered from John Adams that
every aviator in France expected at
last to fall in flames within the enemy
lines, and consequently his ambition
is to get as many Boches Al he "a

The question in the above caption is being asked of
many people and under many circumstances. In the.
present instance it is asked of Americans Of German
origin by a man of their own ancestry. The Question
stands as the title Of a little book by Herman Hagadorn.
Geracan in name and origin, but American by birth and
lit SYM sthy. After analyzing the situation of the Ger
nan.A'nerican and setting forth many of the facts with,
which we are familiar, he says that it is not from Eng
land. or France, or Belgium, that We learn .the truth
abcut the war but from Germany herself, and in this
connecfen this grandson Of a Saxon exile writes:

fronting on the one hand. the county Of our origin,

RECRUITS NEEDED

Why are recruits needed when contineents of the
National army are constantly going forward, and when
more can be called out as fast as they are needed? One
answer to this is given in a statement made to The Her
aid yesterday by Major yYost, who has charge of recruit
ing work in Minnesota. The situation is that the Ma
tional army is composed wholly of new material, while
volunteer recruits are taken Tito an organization which
is. composed of experienced. men, and which, under or
binary conditions, can absorb 80 per cent of the new ma.
terial without imnairins its effectiveness. with 4 COM
pany thus made up, the new man after a few weeks OF
ran on either side of him, and he is stead;ed nv their
presence and aided by their better knowledge.
The recruiting service, moreover, takes only men who
are not within the draft age. Eligibles are taken from
IL TO ~ and from 81 to 20. In the former class is found
some OF the very finest material for active army service.
The men are young. active. enthusiastic and h.v. M.
learned what fear is. We have not only the testimony OF
officers of the present day, but the records Of. orr civil
war in support Of the statement that these voun, M4t
are especially desirable. In the older CLASSES are man
who, al a rule. have found their places in regular occu-
pations in civil life and no matter what the occupa:.tn
is, whether mechanical. commercial. or professional tn.

 SPEAKING CAMPAIGN
Declares Labor Party Missnamed; Composed of Pacifists and B0lshe. viks. Resents by Labor Leaders.

l London. Dec 14,-Via Montreal.- Premier Lloyd George wound. up his l speech making campaign last night at i Camberwell by attacking the f name labor party" because it did not rep
 resent all the labor of the United
 Kingdom. The party represented only
 declared would very largely be cast l for the government. f- 4 r
 The Labor party the premier con
 tinued. was not being run by real working men but by pacifists and pure and simple Bolshevik. It would not be safe to trust the destinies of a great empire to the labor party until l it was able to overthrow this clique.
 The premier's challenge to the la bor party was taken up promptly by the laborites. John R. Clynes. former food ministerfi speaking at Noting ham, declared that the labor party was the same party which had decided two years ago to support MT. Lloyd George. The only difference was that it was larger He admitted that it was true in some cases that some members of the party took extreme views, which however, he did not share. The extremists he said, had only local influence.
 Former Premier Asquith addressed eight meetings in East Fife, and was heckled at all of them. He was given votes of confidence, however, at tall places except Lady-Bank, where the votes were equal.
 Arthur Henderson, the labor leader declared in an interview that nobody knew better than Premier Lloyd George that the labor party in con- junction with the trades union con- gress, was the only party representing organized workers. There was no evil dence ofptoof of the premier's assert ion that tho labor party was Bolshe- wiki. On th8 contrary. MT. Henderson said, he ce4M produce ample evidence that the labor party sought as earnest principles.W
