WORLD TRADE.

This country now holds the great
est reserve of gold the world has
ever seen. it is great economic
base, upon which results national,
state, municipal, corporate and pri-
vate credits. There are but few
ways in which this reserve can be
adequately protected from econom-
ic attack. Among these are deals
abroad, loans, investments, sales and
services. By these methods this
country can keep the current of ex-
change in motion so that the gold
reserve may resist diminution. In
so doing we conserve our power to
give credit which means to do bust
ness on large scale. The United
States has large field in ivestments
abroad, which have hardly been
opened. Foreign commerce must be
kept up if this country wishes to
hold place in the world of financ-
ial, industrial and commercial i'm
portance, through it's credit-giving
power.

War Demands Broaden Work in
Work in Chemistry, Says Secretary
of the Interior


From the annual report of the Sec
rotary of the interior:
"In this department we have dur
ing the past year had a glimse Of the
expanding romance of chemical
study. We have found adventure
in the search for the hidden secrets
of petroleum, natural gas, and coal
tar, of coal smoke, and the refuse
from hundred furnaces and smok-
estacks. We appear to have sud-
IDENTIFY driven into chemical age
or perhaps it would be more ac-
curate to say that we have suddenly
realized that we are in such an age.
New explosives, new fertilizers, new
sourcesof power, of food, new mat
erials for construction and destruct-
ion, new preservatives of life, and
new agencies for the sweetening and
wholesoming of life-these are to
the credit of the modern chemist,
and as byproduct of this war we
are to have a higher appreciation
of this branch Of science, and our
genious fol discovery which has so
greatly been applied to problems of
mechanics will find in analytic and
synthetic chemistry field of oppor-
tunity subject to almost infinite ex-
|pansion."

EFFICIENCY REWARD.

The Washington Iron works, of
of Seattle, divided $4,000 among its
employees at Christmas time as the
result of a new system inaus,lrated
by the company. The division of
this money was in the nature of an
efficiency reward as it was based
both on length OF service and the
class of work done by the employee.
The Washington iron warks is a
non-union shop, employing no
union labor whatever, although pay
ing above the ascale i'm practically

United States this year, economy in the
use of wheat -four will be required of
the people They viii be asked pos

continue the use Of war bread" 70 a

The reason is, of course, the war. The
bulk Of our wheat crop will tie needed for
export, IN grain and IN -four Our other
kinds Of flour are not suitable for export,
but wheat and wheat flour are And
they are needed for the sustenancc Of the
brave soldiers who are fighting the great
war for humanity OH foreign fields.
la such cause our people at home
should be willing to make sacrifices and
submit to inconvenience. But there is no
sacrifice and no Inconvenience involved in
the use Of war r ad The various
combinations that may be made with
wheat -four result in bread that is not
only palatable, but in many instances dc
licious And il is nourishing and sustain
ing,
In this manner We can help materially
to win the war So lot us resolve to get
along with as little wheat bread as pos
sible, in order to help the brave boys who
are fighting our battles

BE FAIR TO DRAFT MEN

Tn ere seems 10 be Il sentiment ln Some
business circles that man subject 10
draft is q marked man and one not 10 be
considered in applications for employment
Notwithstanding the War Department
authorities have ordered all Men OF draft
age to become usefully employed, IRE
due4ltly advertisements III the papers for
help state specifically that men OF draft
age need not apply
When the government was urging upon
tie people the selectiVe service act as the
most democratic and the fairest way for
raising an army It was generally under
stood that no odIum attached TO the man
who waited until the government called
him 10 the particular service for winch he
was needed II was the theory, at least,
advanced that there should be no differ
ence between the volunteer and the draft
man. and in the actions of the government
that spirit seems To have been abundantly
carried out, for the draft men III the camp
have been well treated, and II there have
been any faVors shown at all by military
authorities they have been toward draft
men
In spite Of this some employers aIpar-
entity place the convenience OF their
business first and boldly announce that
men of draft age are not wanted, for fear
Of an early call inGonvcniencIng its labor

view a good many men subject to draft

PRESS COMMENT.
THE MARINES.

That theory about the Marine enter
tanned by the Hon. Josephus Daniels,
who is supposed to know something
concerning Marines, has Some considerable
CONTINGENCIES TO II. Of the Marines Mr..
Daniels is quoted as saying: on
cant drown him and you can't kill him. ;"
this, ANYHOW. the Huns found out in tho
fighting around Chateau Jhierry- that
they couldn't scare him and they couldn't
stop him Whether in zen fight or
a land fight, the Marine Is hot PROPOSE
tiun That is his traditional reputation,
and he certainly made good on his reputa-
tion at Torcy, at Brussalres and at
Buurecheo. The Marines pushed INTO
the fighting around Chateau Thierry one
afternoon, and the next afternoon they
had driven the Huns back two miles along
IA three-rnile front.
The Marines as is commonly known,
represent but a fractional part OF the
trained fighting force which the United
States now has in France We the folks
back home are proud Of the dash and
heroic ar1or Of the Marines but we
know very well that other American con-
tingcnts all the other American CON
tingents are made ont of the spmc KIND

MODIFICATION OF MOURNING.

The London Chronicle seriously records
the demise in that country Of black
bordered, or mourning, note paper and
does so without evidences of great regret
The war has done this, it allows us to
infer. The war is likely, also without
causing any widespread regret, 70 modify
mourning in other directions
The long list Of Nathan llales
who have without hesitation and with
no regret, save that it was their all, given
up their lives for their country and for
humanity some time since it was started,
will grow rapidly in its proportions
Shall the land be filled with mourning?
The war has not changed human nature
These lives which war tears out have their
roots deep in the human hearts at home
No preparation of anticipation of the
inevitable can prevent sore suffering here.
Is it not suffering too deep, too sacred

Too much either peurile, prcjudiced
or unreasonable has been written and
spoken pro and con about the Negro as n
soldier, One set of extremists assert
that he is the finest fighting man that
ever hefted rife; another shouts that he
is not amenable to discipline and not to
be depended upon As usual, neither is
right.
One does not have to bear a brief for
the colored race to tell the truth about
it's virtues, nor does one have to be ITS
bitter enemy TO be plainspoken about its
wees About the only thing essential
is the ability to think clearly, and careful
examination of the facts in the case will
inevitably lead TO the conclusion that
while the Negro is not and essentially
can not bc the best soldier in the world,
he none the less is a mighty good one,
and, barring certain peace-time iapses
which may or may not be lapses into
Congoism due to his blood heritage, per
fcctly responsive to discipline.

There isn't a reason with grain of sanity
in it against such service, To deprive
the Negro of his right TO fight for his
country in a conflict where such trcmcn-
dous principles of right and wrong are
involved would virtually be putting HIM
on equal terms with the tIun as beyond
tho civilized pale The French have
used his blood brothers from Africa and
found them brave, devoted and worthy
of high honors, The British have used
Indian troops, which some class MS color
cd and found them facing the foe with
rs much courage, skill and dash MS

now they fight unerr
