AN AUSTRIAN VICTORY

"One thing is certain, we are not
going to allow Austrian blood to be
shed, either now or later on, to re-
tain German conquests." The Arbeiter
Zeitung of Vienna speaks for the mass
of Austrian people.
Austria is so bound to Germany, pO-
litically, economically and geOgraphi-
cally, that she can not see at present
how break could do aught but bring
harm. The desire for that break is
alive, however, and at the first op-
portunity will occur.
1t may not come until the close of
the war, but the separation of Ger
many and Austria is one task with
which the Allies will not have to rec
kon in concluding peace terms. The
war has already been won, morally, in
Austria.

TO UNIFY LABOR

The Government in its appointment
OF Felix Frankfurter as labor ad-
ministrator" is attempting to unity
its labor policy to accomplish unin-
terrupted maximum war production
and the fair treatment OF labor.
1t argues that the labor turnover
results in inefiiciency and that the
discontinuity of labor can be stopped
only by stabiizing conditions. A
labor board will be appointed to assist
Frankfurter, with its objective TO be
the furthering of equitable labor re
latiOns
Such an administrative body will
WELD tremendous power. American
labor will admit of no halfway meas
ures. With the British Labor party
as an example it is slowly shaping
itself for the adoption of a like pro-
gram. With the labor administration
will rest whether American labor
comes out of the war unified for re-
constructive service or rampant for
concessions that will cripple industry

About the G0If Club.

Editor the MissOurian: In recent
issue of the Missourian was an article
about the formation of a golf club,
whose members would have exclusive
right to be on the University links.
The author of the article apparently
forgot that the state holds title to this
plot of ground Ought outside golf
players have more privileges than stu
dents on University property? The
links offer the only good practice
ground for surveying. / do not know
of an instance where a surveyor seri-
ously obstructed the links The links
offer the only good place for extended
order drill. Ought we not stop our
sport a few hours now and then to
aid in the training of our soldiers? Z?
Shall students be forced to go around
the links even on the -honOred
Sunday afternoon stroll? The stu
dent body should wake up and bring
public opinion against this movement
before il goes too far.

THE NEW BOOKS
EVERYDAY Foods in War Times,-


THE milk pitcher and the vegetable
garden are the best friends of the
woman wishing to set a wholesome
and economical table" says Mrs. Mary
SwartZ Rose in her new book She
says milk is indispensable to the daily
diet and recommends it as a substitute
for meat Mrs. Rose takes up such
things as the milk pitcher in the home,
cereals we ought to eat, the meat We
ought to save, the sugar problem and
others. The last thirty-twO pages of
the book are given to war time
recipes.
''All cereals can be effectively sup
plemented by milk and green vege-
tables" Mrs Rose writes in dealing
with wheat substitution. She recon-
mends oatmeal for bread and pudd-
ings. so one might leave a message
to woman to look in the cereal pot,
for there is a key to health and wealth
and a weapon to win the greatest war
the world has ever seen"
