strikes In tho syrny and navy, no aues-
ton OF duty. Thsy serve and are
proud of their service. Nobody ever
heard of the marines demanding their
beer before they charged the enemy.
AS things stand there isn't much
doubt that prohibition would bring
about trouble among,a certain class OF
workmen engaged in war work. Other
things have brought on strikes and
trouble. 1t suggests that IL the govern
ment were to extend the draft to cover
the skilled workers in shipyards as well
as to cover getting out the spruce on
the hills of the west coast the country
would indorse the act and the sergeant
in charge would see that the proper
number of rivets were in the plates in
the proper time.
But at the present time nothing
should interfere with imperative war
activities. Conditions are as they are.
They must be met as they are. While
we may argue over What may NC uouo
in the future and what should be be
begun in the present the conditions
that must be met must be met today.
If it is true that to take away the beer
would shorten the ship output serious
ly then the immediate Importance Of
ships must rule for the present. The
ships are desperately needed now. We
must have them now. The difference
between ships enough and too few
ship means longer war and larger eX-
penditure of life. But we should be-
gin now to rearrange our affairs so that
the result of great war shall not de-
pend on the thirst of ship carpenter
or the greed of a brewer.

Allied coming indeed from races and

Join together in this mutual expression
OF their loyalty, Is one Of the finest
features Of the proposed celebration.
This Is the "MeltingN Pot" revealed IN
full operation and on a truly great oc-
casion, for July 4. 1918, is unlike any
other fourth since 1873. It's conse-
Grated character has been recognized
by President Wilson in his letter to the
foreign-born. For on approving their
intention to make 1t an occasion for the
expression Of their layalty ne wrote:
LAS July 4. 1776, was the dawn Of
democracy for this nation, let u.s. on
July 4, 1918. celebrate the birth Of a new
nd greater spirit Of democracy, by
whose influence, we hope and believe
what the signers of the Declaration OF
independence dreamed Of for them
selves and their fellow countrymen,
shall be fulfilled for all mankind"
This is the spirit that should mark
the day, and just as the casualty lists
each day In their fateful choice Of
names show no preference for Amer
leans OF one kind above another, but
reveal the amazing range of nations and
races in the service Of their common
country so these loyalty day crusaders,
representatives, as they are. Of all the
countries Of Europe now at each
others throats, will not only be better
Americans for this celebration but will
make better Americans of us all and
make the Fourth this year what 1t
should be-a day of new and intense
devotion to this country and its cause.

Hundreds OF thousands of
