| DOLLARS IS TEST
American Ideals Have Changed With
Coming of War, Says Judge G.
w, Alden In Address.

American ideals have changed with
the war. Previous to the world con-
flict the American who made the most
money was considered the greatest
success while now the man most hon
ored is the one who sacrifices most.
These timely observations were
made by Judge G. W. Alden at the
Moline Y M. C. A. yesterday afternoon
in his address on THE Powder and
the Match" He made 1t clear that no
matter how great were the sacrifices
this country would be called upon to
make, they would be worth the price
of liberty which would result in the
event that democracy wins the strug-
gle, as it must.
He urged an intelligent use of the
ballot and the improvement Of the
physical life of the people of this
country, because of the alarming num-
Der who annually die from preventa-
BILE diseases.

BACKS GOVERNMENT
PRICE FIXING JUST
AS A GALLERY PLAY

Chicago, Feb. pa letter in which
Louis F. Swift referred to Swift &
Co.'S public announcement in favor OF
the government setting maximum food
prices as gallery play" was read to-
day by Attorney Francis ]. Heney,
before Chairman Davies Of the federal
trade commission.
The alleged gallery play" was
made April 10, 1917. The letter dated
a month later, was signed by Louis
F. Swift and was addressed to Charles
H. Swift, at Washington. 1t was one
of the letters taken from Swift & Co. 3
files some time ago. Mr.. Heney read
it as follows:
Some of this is gallery play when
we say we are in favor Of maximum
prices. But I repeat that this is the
only proper thing to do, and believe
that it is possible to follow it out If
the government wants to. l am we'll
satisfied that the government doesn't
want to and is not going to. At the
same time it doesn't make any differ
ence. I mean our public announce
ment."

WANT BETTER SERVICE.

Members OF the Moline city COM
mission devoted the greater part OF
today's meeting to discussion of OBJ
tAining improvements in local street
car service. Here are results Of that
discussion.
A formal resolution was passed or
dering the Tri-City Railway company
10 Immediately begin placing double
tracks On that part Of the East Moline
line which is in Moline.
Mayor Carlson and City Attorney
Johnston were directed to find meth
DDS, if possible, compelling the rail-
way company to extend the Fourth
avenue line on Twentyseventh street
from Fifteenth to Twenty-third ave-
nue..
The mayor declared that the rail-
way company has ties and tracks and
that labor can easily be obtained. The
service between Moline and East Mo-
line was very poor, he said, and Mo
line had been waiting long enough
for improvements.

ARMY OFFICER DID
NOT WANT TO FIGHT
KAISER; GETS 25 YRS.

New York, Feb. 25.-Captain David
A. Henkes, Sixteenth infantry. U. S.
A., has been sentenced to dismissal
from the service and confinement at
hard labor for 25 years by a general
court martial held at Governors is
land.
Henkes, who is Of German descent,
endeavored to resign his commission,
saying he did not care to fight against
relatives and friends.
Captain Henkes, who was stationed
at San Antonio, Texas, last May wrote
to the secretary Of war, urging him to
accept the resignation which he had
already submitted.
Further service as commissioned
officer must sooner or later take me
to Europe, and there bring me in con-
f1ict with my relatives and friends, al
though for the time being my legal
enemies" Captain Henkes wrote. "My
father came from Germany. My moth
er was born here shortly after the ar
rival Of her parents. We have many
other relatives and friends there.
II cannot force myself to the con-
viction that l am capable OF making
war on my kindred upon their soil in
manner that would become my duty
and station. l earnestly request that
may not be required to undergo this
ordeal. / seriously doubt my ability
to Withstand it, and would avoid, in
the interest of my country, family and
friends, what at least appears the
probable consequences"
Captain Henkes soon after was or
dered to France, and from his quarters
there, June 20, 1917. wrote to the ad-
jutant general in Washington calling
attention to the fact that he had re-
signed.
Again on Oct. 10, while still on duty
in France, Captain Henkes wrote an
other letter to the aGjutant general.
He was then ordered to this country
and summoned before general court
martial at Governors island, where he
was formally charged with violation of
the 95th article Of war. This charge
recited that. having taken an oath of
office in which, among other things,
he swore to support and defend the
constitution of the United States
against all enemies, foreign and do
nestle and that he would bear true
faith and allegiance to the same" had
written the letters concerning his res
ignation.

were at the Rock Island station to see

riotic spirit radiation by strains of the
martial airs played by the old vet
Grams, Saturday shoppers fell in line
and marched noisily to tine station At
each step the procession was aug
mented by men, women and children,
and when finally the station was
reached the volunteers had to fight
their way to the two special coaches
that were to transport them to their
destination. Most of those present at
the farewell ceremonies were there
because they could not resist the stir
ring music of fife and drum. Others
were there because they had a special
interest in particular members of the
contingent.
