U.Boats That Will Cruise Ten
Thousand Miles.-Germany according
to q Washington dispatch has COM
pleted the construction Of six super
submarines of $500 to 1900 tons ca
pacity. with a cruising radius OF TO-
900 miles, and six more are being
rushed toward completion, according
to information received here through
official channels.
II is surmised they are for use In
the Atlantic trade routes most distant
from German home bases. as smaller
craft are more advantageously en-
ployed in European waters. The Pa
cific and Indian oceans are considered
too remote, and therefore 1t Is as
sumed that Germany plans to des'
patch the largest underwater craft to
American waters, or TO use them IN
attacks in the mid-Atlantic.
Germany has designed the newer
submarines, 1t was said. to be su-
perior to destroyers. 1t is believed the
Allied and American navies have TAX
en- measures to anticipate the advent
of the giant U-boats. 1t was stated
that the Allied admiralties have known
for more than three months OF the
construction OF these super-subma
rines, which. 1t Is believed. follow on
general lines the great commercial u
boats which were despatched across
the Atlantic before the United States
entered the war and which. It was
said, were constructed by private
German interests.

What Business Men Can Dol
Don't waste men. II you employ two
men to keep one at this crisis. this Is
an anti-American act.
2. Conserve men. Go further than
eliminating waste and see that the
safely, sanitation. and housing OF your
men is keeping them At during the
war.
3. Every man or woman who does
not speak English should be learning
1t. Insist upon their learning 1t In
school or in your shop and designate
one of your employees to see that II
gets done.
4. Urge the public educational au-
thorities to start language classes In
the factory for those who do not un-
derstand English, and are unable tc
attend school. Efficiency increases
with knowledge OF English and citi-
zenship. Give 1t recognition by in
creased wages and promotion.
5. Stop American propaganda
and agitation the instant 1t raises Its
head In your plant by providing in
formation and cooperation on true
Americanism.
6. Invite naturalization officers to
explain citizenship to your aliens and
encourage them to make America
their home. Give them time of with
pay to attend to their naturalization
examinations.

Browning Gun Inuentor

John NJ. Browning, inventor of the
Browning machine gun and the
Browning automatic rifle which
Uncle Sam is producing by thou
sands for use against the Boche, is
turning back to the government some
three and a half million dollars in
disclaimed royalties.
Normal royalty payments to
Browning for guns now under order
would be approximately $1,000, 600.
But
Whatever the government says
is a fair price, 1 am willing to ac-
cept," he told the officials sent to
negotiate with him. He agreed with
out question to a fiat price of ST.
100000 plus an expense allowance
and signed to Uncle Sam the right to
produce as many of his guns as
might be needed.
Browning is 81; of Mormon stock;
slender; slightly stopped; bald ex-
cept for a narrow fringe of gray
hair; wears a closely clipped mus
tache; face is network of fine lines
and between his two eyes two verti-
cal lines cut deeply into the flesh;
dresses simply in pepper and salt
gray, or blue serge; wears no jew
elry; hates publicity; affects no
front; salts away his royalties;
still keeps up Utah home, where he
was born.S

Business Must Finance the War
by TRUMAN A. DewEEsE, Buffalo, n. Y.

But" says the economist fresh
from the cloistered monasteries of
learning, IF all the productive en-
erg1eS and resources of the country
are diverted to the business of war,
it is impossible for business to go
on as usual"
We don't want business to go on
as usual. We must do more business
than usual. AS a matter of fact,
we have only scratched the surface,
so FAR as the productive power of
this country is concerned. We could
actually make everything needed for
the war and at the same time in
crease our productive capacity in all
other lines a hundredfold.
Don't put up the shutters or pull
down the sign. Business must go
right on or we will lose the war
and then Germany will take up bus
mess where we left off.
And if business must go right
on, advertising must go right on,
for advertising is the most important
factor in merchandising. Every
dollar must be kept at work. We
must save, but not hoard. An idle
dollar in the bank is a lazy, un-
productive dollar. 1t is the function
of advertising to pull these. idle dol
lars out of the bank and put them
to work. 1t is the business of ad-
vertising to increase the earning
power of every dollar in all lines of
industry to the end that the people
may finance the war with the least
drain upon the country's resources
and with the least interruption to
normal activities.

WOODWARD DECISION

T HE decision of Judge Kunkel
throwing out the nominating
petitions of James Woodward
of Ashland, as a candidate for Sec
retary of Internal Affairs, ought to
provide a lesson for those who trifle
with the State Nominating system.
either in procuring signatures of
doubtful character or of setting up
candidates for purposes not strictly
within the intent of the law.
There appears to be little ques-
tion that the Ashland man was
placed in the race by reason of the
similarity of his name to that of
James F. Woodward, of McKees-
port, and that the thought was to
split the Woodward vote in favor of
some other candidate by confusing
the minds of voters. This is dis
reputable practice and, while Judge
Runkel was not required to rule on
that side of the case, unquestion-
ably his opinion was influenced by
the facts as they appeared.
Almost as bad was the manner in
which names were solicited for the
Ashland mans petitions, little at
tempt being made to verify them or
TO procure the signatures of those
really favoring the nomination. The
whole thought appears to have been
4 n rot IL
petitions to come within the law
and the most reckless use of the affi-
davit was made to legalize many
that were shown to be false or pro-
cured under circumstances that re-
fleet no credit upon those respon-
sible.
Judge Kunkel's decision is brief,
but it is forcefully written and dis
plays the courts utter contempt for
methods of the kind employed.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-04-27

ToRE business than usual
NI that's the slogan that will
win the war. 1t is the bus
mess of advertising to keep the
dollar at work. How are we going
to keep dollars at work at time
when the industrial resources and
business energies of the people are
being drafted for the war? Adver-
tising is the answer. The Govern
ernment has shown its faith in the
power of advertising by making use
of it on a scale of magnitude never
before attempted in this or any
other country. 1t is the business OF
advertising to pull idle dollars out
of their hiding places and put them
to work. If this is the business OF
advertising in normal times, then
advertising has a job now that is
colossal in its proportions. Adver-
tising must not only sell the Liberty
Bonds, the war stamps and the Red
Cross, but must keep business from
languishing, for, after all, it is big
business and little business that
must finance" the war.
If there is no business how can
we finance" the war? We cannot
Finance" it out of our savings; that
idea is fallacious. We can only
make money by spending money. If
we stop producing things, and SELL
ing things, and buying things, and
merely depend upon our savings we
will soon reach the bottom of the
box and the next Government loan
will find us without any money with
which to buy bonds.

POOR HOLLAND

TT OLLAND is between the Ger
man devil and the deep North
Sea. To bow to German will
would place her out of sympathy
with the allies who are destined in
the end to be victorious and such a
step would be at variance with the
sentiment of the Dutch themselves.
To defy the beast of Berlin is to in
vite such disaster as little Belgium
suffered when her army stood so
valiantly in the path of the Kaiser's
gray-backs in 1914. It is a poor
choice.
But Holland has stood at the
crossing of the ways on more than
one occasion and the Kaiser is not
the only international bully who has
tried his hand against Dutch cour-
age and Independent spirit. Holland
has well trained army and the open
door in Holland would be but a
standing invitation to America to
send her troops against the Germans
through that country, thus compel
ling the Germans to meet them on
new ground and a large number OF
Americans and British going in
through Holland might easily turn
the German campaign into a despe-
rate effort to defend the homeland
against an invasion that accomplish.
ed without the withdrawal of the
German lines in France and Bel
GUM would threaten a catastrophe
for German arms of the first magni.
fude.
There is an old saying that whom
the gods would destroy they frs
make mad" and it would seem sheer
madness for Germany to start wal
on Holland, while the allies contro
the sea. Rather it would appear
.ehat Germany is playing a deep di.
plomatic game in the hope of fore.
ing Holland into the Germanic al
1iance. to become after the war, Il
conditions permit, vassal state con.
trolled by Berlin and the German
Junkers. At all events. the recen
