AMERICANS AND
TRUE DEMOCRACY
Dollars Are Needed as ExempIifi-

BY GEORGE (. BOWEN
of the Vigilantes.


In the main, it cannot be said OF
America that she is without her Amer
leans, or that the faith and service of
the mass is un-American in spirit.
Dollars do not always 90 with de-
mocracy, but when informed. inspired
and enlisted they can be mighty useful
to it.
There has been q mistaken idea id
certain sections of America that dol
lars, according to the number of them,
spelled "aristocracy."
They don't. That is an imported
idea. And that it is perishing in the
land of its origin. witness the war and
the conSternc ton of the few aristo-
Gratis, both external aud inbred.
There have been, possibly are, "a
few external aristocrats in America,
who, in moment OF excessive vanity
measured their social Importance by
the size of their material fortunes.
The war erased that absurd notion,
almost with the first blare of the
trumpet
There are millionaire priyates in the
ranks of the American army and navy
who have renowned all the prestige
of fortune for the privilege of comrude-
ship.
In the crucial test humanity was
first last, and all the way between.
Men are more than money. The outer
veneer has been quickly shed The
man has emerged.
What he thought was his pride, ia
days of social and financial triumph,
le finds was but a cheap and trivial
Daything. Now, his real pride is a
thing Of purpose, power and dignity.
Before the war is over, dollars that
hid in aristocratic secIuSion or Vauut-
ed themselves in ostentatiouS power
are going voluntarily and hunbly to
Join the forces Of democracy.
After the war they are going to de
yelop system Of popular redistrlbu-
ton relieving the old congestion whose
levers broke out IN many forms OF lux
ury ana extravaganza incompatible
with universal contenunent.
The only aristocracy America wants
or needs is of the heart and Of the
Wind.
The shoulder touch OF men on the
march or in the trenches has welded
this feeling into living creed, say

to escape was due to desire to lay
important information he had obtained
concerning the German navy and their
subm arine conditions before our naval
authorities. His tales of prison life and
prison fare we're truly astonishing and
revealed the hesrtlessness of the Huns
and their own sorry food conditions.
He made the statement that the only
German who treated him like human
being was the officer who captured
him. All in all, it was most wonder
fully interesting address and never had
a speaker more attentive and quiet
audience than did Lieut. Isaacs.
Lieut. Isaacs is but q years of age.

receiving high school education un-
der his brother Louis, who was 1T that

was received in the Cresco parochial
