TIME FOR ACTION

It is to the credit of our govern
ment that so far, enemy aliens have
been most linently dealt with, even
when those aliens have given indu.
bitable evidence that they sought to
do the country harm. No drastic
action has been taken even against
the worst offenders, but one and all
have been humanely dealt with. In
fernment for the duration of the war
has been about the most severe pen
atty yet inflicted.
should and would beget consideration
yet instances are multiplying that it
does not so work. While enjoying
almost perfect immunity from harm,
themselves, these enemy aliens seem
bent on wreaking as much harm as
possible on the country that has
spared and protected them.
All of this is now having its iogi-
cal effect. With greater frequency
now come reports of mob violence
AGAINST the country's enemies. The
anger. of the epople is becoming
aroused and they are taking the law
into their own hands.
This is to be deplored, but there Is
only one way to prevent it, That is
for the government to recognize
sedftion wherever it rears its ugly
head, and crush it with an iron hand.
The day is past when any man in
America can occupy middle or neu-
trail ground Every man, woman and
child in the country MUST be class
ed under one of two heads-friends
or enemies. There is absolutely no
other ground to stand upon. | am
either for or against my government.
You are either for or against your
government.
II would seem that German sympa-
thizers in this country would be
more careful of their own safety
than to uselessly arouse the anger
OF the entire nation. They must sure
" know that all their outrages can
have but one result-creating hat
red and loathing for them and their
kind. Surely they cannot imagine
that their efforts will count for any
thing in the final result. This being
the case, the people appraise their
action at it's true value-unreasoni
loyalty to country they have de-
serted and increasing t: lchery and
hostility to a country and people that
have taken them in All protected
them.
The government should force every
mans hand. Every man should be
compelled to lay his cards on the
eleanor t. k the con-
sequences.
And the consequences should not
be in the nature OF pink tea.

The desperate German drive on the
western front had one effect that VIII

II has resulted in the United states
speeding up preparation, and troops

Great Britain can put them across.
