GERMANY DEPORTS FOUR
HUNDRED FRENCH WOMEN
TO WORK IN RUSSIA

Germany, like necessity. knows nc
law. Now she has sent a thousand
French civilians to labor in Russia
four hundred of the number being
women. Whenever, indeed, she has
had need of laborers, she has i'm
pressed them from the non-combat-
ant population Nor is this the first
time she has compelled workers to
leave home and toll for her in remote
regions; the Belgian deportations
are fresh in mind. But this tranfer
of French laborers to Russia repre-
sents the limit, TIP to date, of cruel
and unjustified impressment
AS the war goes on, we see more
and more plainly that it is, in one
of its principals aspects, war for
the vindication of international in
tgrity. The German creed is abso-
lutely opposed to this. 1t confessedly
admits no claim as valid except that
of the Hohcnzo1lern State. 1t is
based on a new and utterly vicious
conception of morality"
No matter what excesses Germany
is guilty of; no matter how contem-
tuously she rejects the old rules and
regulations that have heretofore gov
erned civilized peoples in their re-
lations with one another, we are all
the more bound by reason Of her
flagrant offences to force her into
subsection. The worlds future hap
piness demands it-Providence Jour
nal.

the labor situation is rapidly clear.
ing and that basically it is now bet
ter than in years.
The war has given radicalism its
death blow. Conservatism and work
ing out of our problems hand in
hand with the employer is the kew
note of the future This spirit has
never been by way of as strong and
rapid growth as now. IT, spells the
doom of the soap-box orator and his
fellow meal-ticket CRATER. the radi-
cal agitator and the organizer.
Most of the present strike talk
represents nothing more than the
death rattle in the throats OF the
fellows. whose activities have been
the curse of honest uriorism and
labor organization for many years
No big strikes such as have reccutlv
been noised about are going to occur
and before the war is over bel i've

ing among ourselves that will reduce
the strike evil to minimum not
dreamed of as possible a few years

w., c. MCDONALD, STATES
FIRST GOVERNOR, DIED
IN Ell PASO THURSDAY

The news of the death of William
c. Mcdonald in FL Paso yesterday
caused deep regret among his many
friends in this city. 1t was not a
surprise as all who knew him well
knew that he had been in very
serious condition for long time
having had many acute attacks at
intervals for the past five years.
Gov. INC" had many personal
friends among his active political
enemies and earned the general res
pect and esteem of the people of the
state during his long, active and
useful residence in New Mexico.
The funeral will be held at his
ranch home at Carrizozo Sunday and
will be attended by nearly all the
state officials and many others from
this city and no doubt by many
other prominent men from all over
the state.

aembled in ST. Louis.
In his address the governor said f.:
There can be no half hearted al

German is German spy and should
receive the same treatment at our
hands. If at any time become con-
vinced that there is in any communi-

martial law in that community, sus-
pend the constitutional privileges
and order all spies, pro-Germans and
other enemies of the republic tried

AMERICAN BIG
GUN SUPERIOR
TO GERMAN GUN

PHILADELPHIA, April 4.-Mor,
powerful guns than anything Ger
many has so far produced are in tht
making within dozen miles OF thi.
city, and the first will be ready foi
shipment to France next month. de.
clared Samuel Vauclain, vice -presi
dent and executive head of the Bald
win Locomotive Works, at a dinner
here tonight.
A plant on the Delaware River is
almost ready to turn out the big
guns, Mr.. Vauclain said, and the ar
tilierists to man them have been in
training in the Unit ID States for
some time. When the first gun is
ready for a try-out and shipment in
May, he declared, its crew will be
ready to go with it.
Mobility Is Feature
Not only will the American gun
outrange the German monster that
has been shelling Paris, the speak
er continued, but its shells will be
more destructive and the gun itself
has advantages which the German
weapon has not displayed. For one
thing, he said, the American gu
would be mobile; it could be moved
rom point to point behind the line
with comparative rapidity.
Once the first gun was completed d
and left the factory, said Mr.. Vau-
CLAIM, others would follow in quick
succession, the most burdensome par.
of the task of construction being in
connection with the first gun.
Mr. Vauc1ain's remarks were greet
ed with tremendous applause and sew
eral of his auditors were anxious to
obtain further details. For obvious
reasons, he declared, he could not
go into particulars. 1t was sufficient
he thought, to announce that such a
weapon was nearing completion and
that it outranged the Prussian guns.
Discussed Most Carefully
In mentioning the existence Of the
gun, he went or, he had had o exer-
else the utmost caution lcst he be-
tray some secret of galHe to IN one-
my. His audience were quick to
see the poiutMauv of them are in

FACE REALITIES
IS ADVICE OF TWO
REAL AMERICANS


Two outspoken Americans, Major
General Leonard Wood ant James
NJ. Beck discussed the war before
New York audiences on Thursday
evening. Both laid stress on the ne
cessity of realizing the seriousness IS
OF the present situation. Their talks
were sensile and timely, for even
now we have not yet, as people,
been shaken out Of our old and
dangerous complacency.
General Wood. who has lately re-
turned from France. said, regarding
the enemy: 1--WE may damn his
methods and condemn his morals
and denounce the object Of the war,
hut do not let us make the mistake
OF Understanding his value as a
fighting machine" And again: "The
man wf-v tells you that the enemy
is exhausted and there is going to
be an easy victory tells you what is
not true. -. II is going to be a war
that will try your very souls"
Patriot, Not An Alarmist
General Wood is not an alarmist.
He merely sees with clear vision
what the rest of us must see. 1t is

come oown out OF the clouds and

NOT TINE NOW
FOR PATRIOTS
TO KEEP SILENT
(Chicago T-ibunc)

The policy desired by the parts
ans OF the Administration is express.
ed in the following remark of Senator
I Ovcrman; Now is the time for al
men to be true and to be silent about
these matters that we admit to b,
true"
A comfortable formula. If it were
adopted. as it has not been in any
belligerent country and as it will not
be in this country, every sluggard
every blunderer, every selfish, self
seeker in public office could go on
indefinitely working irreparable in
jury to the nation and the nations
cause. The formula is whimper
ing appeal for immunity.
Criticism Justifies Itself
But critism already has justified
itself. We note that the Admins
tration press is pcrsistently implying
that the Senate military affairs in
quiry of last fall and winter and the
critism of war organization which
ran parallel with it in the press fail
ed. The contrary is true. No ar
gument is needed to justify Senator
Chamberlain and other critics. Mr..
Bakers subsequent acts and the
Presidents justify them. Since that
critism began the War Department
has been drastically reorganiz.d and
the President he's moved staad Oily
toward the creation of tie superior
war council demanded by criticism
No partisan rhetoric can conceal
these acts which speak louder than
any words.
Many Programs Behind
Now the course of events. and es-
pecialIy the eliminating shock of the
gigantic German drive, has forced
another showdown. The aeroplane
programme whicl, promised twelve
to twenty thousand battle planes
next July will deliver thirty-seven
machines. Production is ninety days
behind and meanwhile our troops
holding sectors of the front are with
out aid and protection of aircraft
except when the French can give it
to them. As fer merchant ships,
held to be the crux of the war, we
have contributed two after a year
of gigantic expenditure.
Overman Plea Unreasonable
Senator Overman wants us to be
true and silent. 1t can't be done. In
the face OF the known facts, which
must be corrected promptly if we
are to help win thewar. it is not true
20 be silent No reform comes in
silence. For months after grave de-
fects of organization and costly de-
lays were known there was silence,
loyal silence. The result was the
Snug. self-satisfaction displayed by
Mr.. Baker. the bombardment of op-
iiristic reports and programmes by
Mr.. Creel. the press agent of the ad-
and angry resentment
from the President against inquiry
and suggestion
This was the result of silence.
golden silence for politicians and
inefficient officcho!dsrs; leadcn
silence for the nations cause. But
when that silence was broken Came
bastv reforms. and they will come
now. I
No patriot will keep silence to save
he face of the Government when ST. I
ence protects the incompetent at !
home and endangers the lives of our
soldiers abroad.

Roads Down South Reportedin
Surprisingly Good Condition
And Driving Down Is About the Only Way To Be
Sure of Having Your Car Along for Use-Sand-
Clay and Gravel Favorite Road Materials

The difficulty of obtaining space for
automobiles on the boats plying be-
tween New York or Savannah or Jack
sonville, coupled with the impossibilty
at present of shipping cars by rail to
points in the Southern states, leaves
to take their cars with them on their
annual southwark winter migration.
This is, Of course, the possibility Of
driving the car all the way through,
but it imne diate1y brings UP the ques-
tion of what condition the roads are in
at the present time.
The manager of the American Auto
mobile Association Touring Bureau,
James A. Hemstreet, has returned from
an extended automobile trip through
out the Southern states. IN the course
of it he covered the trunk route to
Atlanta, as we'll as that to Jacksonville,
over the so-called "Atlantic highway" j"
This not only demonstrates the prac-
ticability of mid-winter touring in the
Southern states, but also reveals a sur
prlslngly good average of roads on the
main trunk routes leading south.

they existed several years ago will be
