The nerves Of the body are not
unlike the telegraph system at the
Front. The millions Of nerve fla-
ments are like network Of wires
that keep all the trenches in close
sympathy and communion. Food
supplies and reinforcements are dis
patched here and there and so the
nerves send increased blood and
nourishment where it is most re-
quired. The nerve cells guide the
heart and stomach. By this means
the stream of blood laden with nour-
i-hment is sent to every part of
the body.
So it is that the blood feeds the
nerves. If blood Is impoverished, we
feel nervous-sleepleSs-" fidgety."
The blood needs to be built up.
If we lack iron in our blood, we are

FREE SPEECH
fBy A. N. Simons.)

One of the inside lines" upon which
 Germany moves in this war is her ability to run below the higher moral
 standards and the greater liberties ot her opponents. She can bomb schools and hospitals, undefended cities and crowded tenements and
 sink passenger, relief, and hospital ships without warning in comparative
 security that like barbarities will not be practiced against her.
 h the second. or economic. line of defence Germany also profits by her willingness 10 use more primitive and barbarous weapons. She cuts down
 French orchards, loots Belgian coop eratiyes and factories. and leYies tri-
 0use on cities, enslaves even women and young girls and introduces anth- rax germs into Roumanian herds, se- cure in the fact that she is moving in 9 neolithic strata of civilization into which the minds and morals Of her opponents do not penetrate
 As might be expected. this back. ward character Of Germany's methods of war-making is most evident in what she has herself called the third line of defense" and which consists in propaganda 10 weaken the civilian morale Of the enemy Here Germany has committed some of her most fla grant atrocities, won her greatest vic tories. and feels most sure of immuni- F. By this form Of offensive she oyercame Russia and Roumania and swept deep into Italy. By ii she long held the United States at bay and still depends upon it as her main weapon against this country.
 Germany's success here depends pre- eulinendy upon her ability to suppress free speech at home and encourage unlicensed liberty abroad. She has been perfectly successful in her do- mestic measures The very idea Of freedom of speech and press. as un- de-stood in democratic nations. has not entered into the domesticated minds of Germany. An unsubsidized press. uncontrolled news services. un. regulated public meetings are all tot

ally foreign to German thought and practic. Having alternately gagged. bribed. intimidated and manipulated. nutilated. and created public opinion al home. Germany sends her agents abroad 10 exploit the freedom os speech of other nations in the in
 terest of the autocracy that stified such freedom in Germany.
 The story of how every publicity
 niche in this country was infested
 with these pests has been told until even those who secretly wish their success no longer deny their exist ence. II was these dispensers of mental poison gas that first asphyxi- ated free speech in America. Sub sidy, equally with suppression, des- .roys free speech. The believing Of a hired mob is as effective as gas in stopping public discussion.
 The agents of Germany were the first to suppress free speech in this country. Nothing was ever so deadly to such liberty as the spreading Of the s10, 100000 corruption fund of Von Bernstorff Freedom Of speech was stifed much more when Von Rintelen financed the Madison Square Garden meeting Of Labor's National Peace Council How many Of those who be vail the steps necessary to a restora- tion of untrammeled expression Of speech had a hand in influencing Congress" on former occasions" as described Dy von Bernstorff?
 There could be no freedom of speech ii. this country until the roar Of Ger. man dollars was stopped. Uufortu- nately. so many American organiza- tions were making sounds impossible to be distinguished from that roar that it was inevitable, and perhaps not wholly unjust, that some should be punished because of their bad as- sociations and worse appearances.
 It is hard to find defender of free speech and press so fanatical as to claim that the German Government should be permitted to keep its Von Igels, Rintelens, and similar tools at work during war. But it will take ane discriminating craftsmanship to hit these agents Of the Kaiser and miss the pacifsts and socialists who insist upon saying the same things in

OPPRESSED OF NORTH HUNGARY FIGHTING
 FOR THE ALLIES
e. H. Mike in Outlook

The Czecho- Slovaks are a nation of 100000 people, living in the very --eart of Europe, occupying a compact .erritory extending over Bohemia, -doravia, Silesia and Slovakia North rlungary).
 Czecho-Sloyaks living in Russia England. France and Canada were urged to join the allied ranks. Sev- eral thousand were enrolled, and have distinguished themselves at Artois. Champagne, Dobrudja and in the Bal ans. Capt. Firlinger, who has just reached New York from Russia reports that there are more than 6O,000 Czecho- S.ovaks now in Russia who are ready lat moments notice to proceed against their former oppressors. As a
 matter of fact, the exploits Of the Czecho-Slovak brigade, which so nobly distinguished itself at Tarnapol last June, are now known all over the world. The motto Of these troops Is
 Victory or Death" It is a firm rule which every man obligates himself to observe, that they never surrender to the enemy, but rather fight to the bit ter end
 A silimlar autonomous Czecho- 5logak national army is at the pres ent time being organized in France. 1 recent decree of the president Of the republic Of France regulating the for, nation of this army reads as follows: The Czecho-Sloyaks, organizing an autonomous army and recognizing in all military respects the superior au- thority Of the French high command, are waging war under their own stand ards against the central powers. " They are waging war under their own standard! What this means to them only one who has had taste of flaps burg oppression can understand.
 IL is extremely inspiring to see a few of these volunteers who are flock ing to the CzechoSlovak standard from all over the world. Some of them are from Canada, some come from Russia, while many Of them are periodically arriving from America. It has been my good fortune to speak with many of these men. Just the other day man came all the way from Texas in order to depart for France. When informed that, owing to certain physical disabilities. he could not be accepted, the man burst into tears. saying, T must go. care not whether I accomplish much. l only want to go to die in the trenches. so that when my nation is free and my children grow up to appreciate the TaIue of freedom. they can say tha. their father was one of those who had aid down his life in order that their nation may not be engulfed in the Pan- German sea that has almost complete Y surrounded 1t already" In one of their recent maneuvers grandfather and grandson marched together to meet the hated Teuton foe.

| the same manner at the same inap. proprite time Yet these German agents must be mu,zled if we are to have any freedom of discussion what ever. It would not be free speech if the German Government was per mitted to use $1o.0oo.O .OoO megaphones at all of our public meetings.
 We limit speech to-day that it may live free forever. This is no tricky paradox. Whenever a free and self. governing people fights for more free. dom, it must momentarily restrict its own liberties. But liberties so self repressed are never lost. They are only laid aside where they can easily De reached.
 This necessity of self-control and self.limitation is one of the penalties of being in advance of the race. It is also one of the conditions of such pro- gress. X nation that lacks the abili- Ity to do these things will not gain and hold liberty. So long as we have lib critics that do not exist elsewhere we must constantly turn and fight the civilization that would have blocked our liberty. and in so turning back we can not avoid using the weapons of he age against which we are fighting. However. repulsive these weapons may be to refuse to use them would be to insure our own defeat and the triumph of reation.
 We fight to end fighting. We wage war to make an end to war In the same way we submit for the moment to a self-created autocracy that we may remove forever the threat of an imposed autocracy. We take upon ourselves the burden of militarism
 hat we may forever and finally crush nilitarism.
 Only those who secretly distrust democracy and freedom find inconsis- tency in such action. These friends of autocracy would have tyranny re-
 ain all the weapons and leave de- noeracy defenseless against assault So it is that those who are directly or indirectly defending governments in which there Is no free speech are now he most enthusiastic apostles of free speech in this country.
 Freedom is not a letter preventing struggles for new freedom. Casting If tyranny dose not render free peo- pie helpless against the assault of granny America has the right to ap- peal in it's own defense to any weapon used against her. We may rightfully close the mouths of those who favor an end of all free speech.
 The victory of Germany would mean an end of all those liberties about which so much has been said and whatsoever works to that end is 1orking against free speech, no mat ter now carefully it may conceal itself
