NOT REVOLUTIONARY.

The British labor party has just closed
the most important conference in it's his
tory, the outstanding fact of the three
days proceedings being the firm stand
taken on the war, British labor, according
to press dispatches, having emphatically
re-asserted that the world must be com
pletely and finally rid of aggressive mill
tarism.
The pacifist element in the convention,
although demonstrative, was beaten de-
cisively on every occasion. For three years
the question of the conduct of the war has
been the principal pre-occupation of this
annual conference and each time labor has
decided to go on, but it never before has
spoken in SO emphatic and specific man
ner as this year. nor with such unanimitv.
For the American public one of the main
points of interest is the party's unequivocal
acceptance of President Wilson as its own
prophet. Not single resolution or declar-
alton made during the conference on the
subject OF war or peace omitted an indorse-
ment of Mr.. Wilson's war aims and atti-
nde. No other allied statesman received

With almost ritualistic impress
slveness the buff-colored cardboard

And here is where imagination
comes in. The shovels are empty,
the bottom of the bins stare blankly
and wonderingly at one who peeps in

But with a sublime faith, staunch

that shovels in this climate, are more

FOR OUR OWN.

President Wilson has issued proclama-
ton announcing the Food Administrations
conservation program for 1918, and urging
the necessity of greater saving of food by
the American people. Herbert Hoover,
food administrator, has made public a state
rnent, in which he quotes cable message
from Lord Rhonda, the British food con-
troller, which said:
Unless you are able to send the allies at
least seventy-five million bushels of wheat
over and above what you have exported up
TO January l. and in addition to the export
able surplus from Canada, cannot take the
responsibility of assuring our people that
there will be enough food to win the war"
While the food ad ninistration intends to
create the export surplus Largely by volun-
tary methods, measures of enforced con-
servation will be employed in regulating the
consumption of wheaton flour. This will be
reduced at least thirty per cent by arbitrary
methods. Mr. Hoover has asserted that no
more food would be sent out of the country
than is saved, and that in no event would
the supply of food be endangered"
Mr.. Hoover has replied to Lord Rhonda's
message in a cablegram, which read:
1--WE will export every grain that the
American people will save from their nor
NAL consumption We believe our people
will NO f1il to meet this emergency"

This is tremendous task that the Ameri-

it is not difficult one. There is plenty of
food in this country, and to spare The
difficult thing is to make the individual re-
alize the great Importance of saving little
food each day. eating. less beef, less wheat,
less sugar, that Our allies be fed
Short-sighted patriots look upon the food
conservation campaign as a quasi-philan
thropic movement, but it is no such thing;
it is not alone for the allies that we must
save food to win this war. 1t is for our own
men, for Our own families here at home for
whatever may come, we stand or fall with
the allies. Their fortunes and our own are
one and inseparable When we save loaf

THE LAGOON PATROL.

Out on the desolate sand wastes of
the Gulf Beach, the Lagoon Patrol
has Its headquarters. 1t is far be-
moved from the clash of steel and the
roaring of great guns, and yet it is
as essential to the successful prose-
cutlon of the war as the more specta-
cular service.
Had it not been for the tragic ac-
cldent to. F. III. Young, few Pensaco-
hans would have known that there is
lagoon patrol. Yet those silent
watchers among the shifting dunes
are of great Importance to the city
and to the nation

cember the sentries along the beach

of the missing visitor Though this
was not routine duty). and nearly a
north later their efforts were re-
warded. Such service is a fine
thing, for the men who do it. do it
unselfishly and with no possible per-
sonal gain. Almost banished from
civilization, beyond the reach of tele-
phones and newspapers, their solitary
post lacks qualities of human asso-
citation which serves to sustain 9TH
ers. War is a thing of vast incon-
venief1ce and many responsibilities.
and who shall say what service is
greatest.

CZERNIN SLATED FOR BERLIN
AND BURIAN MAY QUIT SOON

Count Czernin, according to an off,
cial dispatch from Franco. is to be ap-
pointed ambassador to Berlin. Quoting
telegram from Zurich. the dispatch
says 1t should be borne in mind that
Emperor Charles in his last letter to
Czernin- informed him that it would
not be long before he received a new
post.
The present ambassador Is Prince Won
Hohenlohe, who recently was sum-
moned to Vienna, and whose unexpect-
ed return gave occasion to many COM
ments.
Baron Burian will hold the Office of
foreign minister for a short time only,
another dispatch said. It quoted a
semi-oficial note issued in Vienna, as
follows:
Baron Burian considers it his chief
duty to subdue the internal struggles
and, consequently. unless he is COM
PEELED from circumstances, he will
avoid undertaking important diplo-
matte action. He will wait until his
successor has been found. The cam
paign for his succession can, there
fore, be considered as actually open.
The Emperor Charles has had recourse
to the minister Of finance because he
did not wish for the moment to appeal
either to Count Tisza or to Count
Andrassy.
"One wonders If as things stand It
is possible for an interim to last out
any considerable length of time. Pub
lie opinion, indeed. openly declared
against q minister who possesses so
little authority and whose position is
SO insecure. The Magyars especially
are displeased. They wished for q
minister of foreign affairs who would
be strong enough to remain in ONCE
until the end Of the war. With Baron
Burian they are compelled to give up
this hope entirely. In these circum-
stances, they bitterly observe. it will
be an Austrian statesman who will
be called upon to take his place and
prepare for the period Immediately sue
ceeding the war Hungary can only
lose by this arrangement"
