ARMy.AND NAVY INSURANCE

When congress passed the military and naval Insurance act it showed it's appreciation of the need of giving proper protection to the families of the soldiers and sailors and 1t put this matter on q basis which permits of no favoritisn through politics but which insists upon justice and fair. ness to all. The scientific method of insuring it's men marks decided il1a- provement over the old pension sys- tenn which has long been subjected to gross abuses.
 In addition to the insuralce which the government places upcn it's men in tse service. both for death and dis ability. there is also an opportunity which is offered the enlisted men and officers to take out additional fnsur- ance so that the total amount may reach s1o.oao. the premium on tf1e aa. ditional amount, fixed far steiow any figure which insurance companies of- fer, being paid by the soldier or sailos, How, generally this Is appealing te the men is indicated by the announce
 nert that almost s4 0oo. .a00, ,0eo worth has already been applied for, In this connection, however. a fact which should not be lost sight of is that ths opportunity to secure this. added in- suranee holds good only pntil Feb riiary 12 for those who were in tfs service before October I5 and that those who enlisted after that date hay, l2a days from the date of their enlist,

not. It is in fact only what was to be expected in country which has been so upset by the rapidity with which changes have taken place there since the overthrow of the czar. How long the bolshevilzi can continue to maintain their control Is unknown. There can De no question but what they are rnisrepresenting the will of the people. that they are causing dis satisfaction from one end of the old empire to the other and that the clos ing of the assembly is going to strengthen the opposition if such a thing is possible. They are doing just what is needed to prevent all possi- :
 bility of Russia ever being united again.

AUSTRIA WANTS PEACE.

While interest has long been cen tered about Russia not a little is now being directed to the situation in Aus tria- Hungary. Certain leaders in that dual monarchy have long been clamor- ing for peace. They understand the conditioAs, the feeling of the people, the dissatisfaction with the German control and they recognize that the composite nation cannot hope to con- tinue much longer under the strain that has been experienced especially in the past year or so.
 The demands for peace are increased by the dissatisfaction that is being manifested in the different provinces of the country. It is reflected in the statement at the conference with the bolshevih that Austria wants noth. ing in the way of territory from Rus sia or in the shape of indemnity. It Is anxious to sign separate peace ir order to lay down arms and adjust its own interior conditions.
 The national labor strike again em. phasises the leaning towards peace Austria's nose is being held 60 ths birthstone by Germany with no in. tention of letting up. It received muci encouragement from the way in whicf the Italians were driven back but tn, resistance encountered on the Play, has had it's effect and the demands fol peace are again rampant Whethe cabinet changes can overcome then Is a question. The indications are tf1a German influence is on the wane ther, and that being the case Austria bids fail to do much towards forcing the hand O the imperial German government. Tn repeated demands for 'peaceN in tha country certainly have their meaning

INDUSTRIAL VICTORY.

It was only few years ago, just before the opening of the war in Hu- rope. that this country was depending upon Germany for it's analine dyes. This situation prevailed in spite of the fact that the United States pos- sessed the natural resources for pro- viding it's own requirements in this direction. Because it was possible to get such goods from Germany at a low figure, the cheap labor of that cctirl- try playing an important part In the matter, no encouragement was given to the establishment Of such an industry in this country. We simply allowed tlie raw material to go to waste and purchased elsewhere, completely over- looking the fact that we were n1ak- ing ourselves dependent upon others.
 Times and conditions have changed Dyemaking Is oneN of the growing in- dustries of the United States. We have been driven into the business but as was believed we possess the ability to equal the product of the experts abroad. How rapidly we have pro gresseA is well illustrated by the an
 nouncement that we have exported SIP 100000 worth of dyestuffs since building up this enterprise. This makes it evident of course that we arc not only taking care of our own needs but that we are able to supply others who are anxious to import such goods. And it demonstrates most con clusively what has always been main. taihed that such an industry could bs
 built up and maintained in this coun- try if given the right encouragement Having shown what can be done 1t re.
 mains for the country to stand frml, back of the efforts which are turning
 what was formerly waste into profit. able business. It is an industrial vie tory.

DUTCH SHIPS.

Good news is contained in the an- nouncement that this government has completed arrangements whereby if will charter the Dutch vessels which are in the harbors of this country and put them into active service. This will mean an addition of about one hundred ships to the tonnage of this country and while it is understood that these vessels will not be engaged in traffic which will carry them through the barred zones and while some of them will be allowed to take goods to Holland and Belgium it does mean that ships which are now idle and have been tied up for months will De put into use, That tte service in which they are to be employed may be limi.ed further than to keep them out of the zones where the submarines are operating is indicated by the state iment that they will be chartered for enc round trip but even that is going to mean much relief in transportation circles. It will permit the despatch ei goods to neutral countries and the bringing back of an equal amount oi products which this country needs and which. have been too long held up al ready, but inasmueh as these ships are to be secured for such help il ought to be possible to put them into such service permanently. There is also plenty of opportunity for putting them into the coastwise trade as wei as that to neutral nations.
 That being done it will mean that some of the other vessels can be with 1rawn for the movement of supplies lo our allies. It Is a much needed ac. suisition but the help which is going lo be secured ought to have been ob tained months ago. It nevertheless re mains for us to make the best possi ble use of it now.

Views of the vigilantes
THAT WHICH IS ETERNAL.
By Pauline Worth Hamlin of The
 visilantes.

f
 Twenty years ago a little woman went with her husband and seven children to take up'' ranch in Western Colorado. It was real pion- eering-fer they lived fifteen miles from the nearest neighbor. Their water had to De hauled five miles in barrels There was very little money and a great deal of hard work, which perhaps after all was g blessing. be- cause 1t served to break the montony of. the desert life. This woman was well educated and had always en- joyed association with intellectual people Sine missed 1t very much. She also missed good books and magazines. She loflged for music but there was not enough money for even a phono- graph.
 After twenty of these starved, mo- notonous years her two boys found good positions in the city three hum dred miles away. They wrote her that they were going to send her money to buy some good clothes and ticket to California where they want ed her to spend the winter. Just at that time our country was plunged into war and the message from her bots, which had made her so happy was followed by another asking ssShal1 we en1ist?"
 This mother sat down in her log cabin home and wrote this letter to her boys who were to have been the
 means of ltberating her fron1 her prison of poverty and rnonotony.
 'sFhis is $ matter for you to decide for yourselves. If were fH your place know should go. If you | el7nrIids mt .ffvzrs ff1 Aef71c hartt Iifo is but a little span at best and you wouis have a part in establishing the finest

 Her boys have gone; the dream ol the winter in California has gone. Sht has taken up her life in the desert- but the most wonderful sunsets in tn, world are seen on the desert!

 From the shores of the North Sea to the Swiss frontier a parallel line of captive observation balloons, or @sausages,n marks in the air the rough outline of the entrsnches positions of the German and Entente troops except when a storm is blowing in such strength as to make aerial ascents im- possible or extremely hazardous.
 The gas-bags, which are attached to steel cables, fly at varying heights ac- cordlng to the degree of visibility and the nature of the country in the vi. ciuity in which they operate. The work their occupants are able to. per- form in reporting troop movements and concentrations on the opposing side Is of immense vRiue to the eosn- manding generais and this is the tea- son they are subject to constant atl tack. Every observer and mechanic carried in the. balloons Is provided with a parachute attachedGte his waist. By this means he has a chance of es- caping eertafn death in case an ene- my shell should rip the balloon or set it on ire.
 The correspondent of The Asgoci- ated Press has observed many thriIl- ing incidents during attacks on cap tive balloons at various parts of the
