KENYON WARNS
AGAINST PEACE
PROPAGANDISTS
Rebukes the Prohibitionists
Who SANDER Gen. Per-
shing's Men.

This Is no time for talk Of peace,
Senator Kenyon, Of Iowa, declared
yesterday, before the Senate, while
analyzing war conditions.
Nothing could assist Germany
NOPE than this present peace talk"
Senator Kenyon asserted. "and the
theory that Germany is exhausted"
After declaring that there Is no
reason TO believe Germany Is ready
to acknowledge defeat and accept the
terms on which the allies will in
sist. Senator Kenyon read a lesson
to superficial patriots.
There is no reason for gloom" he
declared. 1T took Great Britain two
years to get on a firm war basis.
We need not be discouraged. The
British and French will hold the
line until We can come. but we must
aid them with all the speed that
we can summon. Never again will
this nation be found in such a con-
dition of unpreparedness, and one of
the best preparations for future
trouble will be universal military
training
Defines Patriotism.
patriotism does not consist In at
tending banquets with seven or eight
courses to argue the food conserva-
ton question. Nor is 1t particularly
evidenced by rising when the orches-
ira plays the Star Spangled Ban
ner,' and then rushing to the tele-
graph office and wiring members Of
Congress, For Gods sake do not in
crease the taxes on those things
that affect u.s.
I'VE must search our souls in this
country. We must quit thinking
about ourselves. We must think in
terms OF war; marshal our industries,
marshal the spirits OF our people
not to expect profits. nor desire to
grow rich during the war"
Rebukes Rumor Mongers.
Senator Kenyon administered a, re-
buke to authors of reports that the
American soldiers in France are
drinking heavily.
Il want to say to my prohibition
friends: Don't father the story of
drunkenness among our boys over
the sea. 1t is not SO. You may find
drunken man among them, Just
as you used to find a drunken man
in the Senate a few years ago. But
IN the main they are fine, upstand-
ing American boys.
Leave II to PershIng.
We prohibitionists have as big 4
job as possible on our hands right
now with the Federal amendment be-
fore the States. Let's not make it
any harder for the men who are in
charge Of the boys overseas.
Gen. Pershing can see setter than
We can. He's a hard-fighting Amer
lean. He don't want drunkards in
his army, and he will not have them.
Let's leave it to him."

Mothers Illness Clouds
Triumph of D. c. Soldier
Sylvan Taylor, Hero Of Pershing's Forces, Re
ceives News of Sickness at Home;
, Letter Consoles Parent

News Of his mothers serious illness
has marred the pleasure Of Sylvan
Taylor, a Washington boy, who re-
gently received the commendation of
Gen Pershing for coolness in action.
Since Taylor's enlistment his mother
has left the family home in Cleveland
Park and spent three months in a
sanitarium and is now threatened with
the prospect OF never being able to
walk.
In the same letter IN which he tells
Of his big experience at the fighting
front. he writes of his shock at his
mothers condition. With touching
boyishness he writes. Mother, ethe
news Of how you are has just knocked
me cold Mother dear. I don't know
what TO say. You, who were always so
welT Please, sweetheart, Just hold on
until your soldier boy comes back
from France. know you'H get better
then"
Proud of Soldier Son.
And his high spirited mother is very
proud Of him. Besides she is Of the
same sort. Sickness and pain. have
not daunted her courage. sitting in the
invalid's chair to which she has been
confined for months, she read his let
tiers from the Flanders front which she
Always Keeps beside her.
My son enlisted last July" she
said. when he hadn't yet reached his
21st birthday. He's just a boy for all
his six feet three inches. But we were
glad to see him enlist. 1 wouldn't
give a straw for any boy who won't
do everything he can now. His sister,
Lady George Chumley, is doing war
relief work over there. And IL /
weren't tied to this chair by sickness,
I'd do my share beside them"
Taylor's sister. Lady George Chum-
ley. Is one of the many English
noblewomen Of American birth who
Snre carrying on relief work in France.
Her husband is on Gen. Allenby's
stan in Palestine. Last year she had
charge Of a big cahteen near Paris.
and now she Is running a motor in
addition to her former duties.
Gen Pershing's commendation of
Taylor was called forth by his cool
ness under shell fire. His detachment
was doing construction work In a
front-line trench when the sector was
shelled and gassed by the Germans.
Taylor worked under the shell fire,
suspending Operations only while
compelled to wear his gas mask
sheIled by Germans.
OF this experience Talyor writes:
That trip to the battle front was
something I wouldn't exchange for
$4,000. Why. mother, it was as won-
derful as it was terrible. It's no
use writing much, because the CEN
sor wouldn't let it pass, anyway. But
