calling to America to pour its goods
out to them. There is basis for a
commerce that can, be broadened into
the greatest any nation ever enjoyed.
And commerce is the life blood Of a
nation.
Unfortunately neither the American
banker, American manufacturer nor
Am erican merchant has appreciated
to the full heretofore the worth Of
world markets. The domestic mar
ket was so immepse that it was, sui
ficient or seemedS 50 to them. : They
never gave to world trade the study,
the patient care, the increasing atten-
ton which made for success with the
Europeans. They must do so now or
the loss to America will be stupendu-
Gus for on the American manufacturer
and merchant depend the success of
the monster fleet this country is
building. On their conduct of our for
eign trade depends the continued pros
perity of the army of labor in Ameri-
can mines, mills, shops and factories.
World trade can be established only
on the foundation of good merchandise
ing and good service. The American
laborer is the best laborer in the
world, The American manufacturer
is the cleverest and most enterprising
in the world The american merchant,
however, has not Rlways proved him
self a good merchant in foreign trade.
He must do it now or he will not do
his duty. ~ sTssqs%Ts. '''

World Is Looking ~ayga,s
To the Great Republic.
Today the world looks to the great
republic for inspiration, direction and
financial aid in the great departure
on which it has embarked. On the
manner in which America meets it's
obligations much that affects the well
fare of mankind depends.
Let us see what these obligations
are and what capacity America has
for fulfilling them.
Europe has been the workshop of
the world. It has drawn raw mater
ials from the less developed parts
of the earth, turned them into finish
ed goods and sold them the world over
at good profit 1t has opened cont
nents, spanned the seas. 1t has been
the banker, the merchant, the carrier
And now, suddenly, the situation has
been changed. Britain, leader in
world trade, in finance, in manufac
ture, has had it's labor forces Grip
pied by war. it's merchant fleets re
duced, its wealth impaired.
Germany, second in rank, is bank
rupt, torn by revolution. it's mercan
tile marine a thing of the past, its
trade only a memory.

Europe will strive to hasten its res

It will take long, long time to repai
the ravages of such terrible war. NO
only the nations that drew on Europ
for goods but Europe itself must turl
to America for money, for material
for supplies, for finished goods.
Never did nation have opportunit

SHORTSIGHTED, AS USUAL

While Chairman Hurley of the emergency fleet
is in Europe on the quixotic errand of persuading
the British government, the British shipbuilder,
or somebody, or anybody to raise seamen's wages
Chinese, Lascars and the others-so that Amer
lea can compete with Great Britain on the sea, at
fairs with the shipping board are in the usual
mess That body, created to build ships, has at
last decided that it will have no wood ships, which
have served all maritime nations since the days OF
the Phoenecians and that nothing will do But steel
vessels. - ~ .
Yet here is the Foundation company, reputable
and responsible concern, striving to get release
from the shipping board so that it may build steel
ships for the French, in competition with the build
ers of the world. It cannot get consent of Mr.;
Hurleys board nor, so far as has been disclosed
has the United States offered steel contract TO the
Foundation corporation to keep it's yards going
In effect; Foundation cannot build , for the French
Here; again, is continuation; in the old familiar
fashion, of the shipping board policy that drove
this same Foundation company to build yards in
Canada, where it would be free to construct on
foreign account. No difficulties are encountered
there about the appropriate development of a
sound policy by which any concern may build ships
for anybody who can and will pay for them.
Here however, thousands of men are to be
thrown out of employment, and growing industry
paralyzed, by failure of the shipping board to see
that the way to make the United States great
maritime nation is to encourage it to become a
great shipbuilding nation.-Portland Oregonian.

WITH THE EDITORS
THE REASON FOR FEAR FOUND

I J. Howard Moore, in remarkable little book
entitled Savage Survivals," has built up pic
ture of our development from the lower animals
'Man also was once wild ANIMAL is his theme,
and he shows that nearly all the instincts which
we possess today have been handed down to US
by ancestors of the jungle, hills and valleys.
"Fear," he says, lis one of the oldest instincts
of this world 1t existed long before man, and
was inherited by him from prehuman ancestors
Fear first appears somewhere near the worm
stage of animal development, and is found IN all
animals above this stage. Fear is the instinct TO
shrink from danger or enemies. -.
"Have you ever noticed a bird eating, or drink
ing, or taking it's bath? 1t takes bite, and then
looks around. Then it will take another bite, and
look again. 1t is always on the lookout for enc
mics. It always sleeps with one eye open: 1t is
pursued always by pitless state OF fear. All wlld
animals have enemies, and they are able to main
tain themselves in the world only by constant
vigilance. g." n ''"'. W
every antelope in South Africa has literally
to run for it's life every day or two on an average
and it starts or galops under the influence OF
alarm many times in day. Many animals that
live in locks or herds have developed the practice
of having certain individuals in the group act as
sentinels while the rest are eating" -
Fear still lies at the root of many Of mans least
progressive impulses, but mans fear does not COM
pare with the fear shown by wild animals. Curl
ously, some of our surviving fears are quite un-
reasonable, being merely the inherited terror OF
some evil that used to exist in the days OF our
ancestors. Take the fear which we have OF snakes
and SPIDERS It is out of all proportion to circum-
stances, and is probably inherited largely form
the monkey.-London Tit-Bits.

SEE WHATHAPPENED TO THE POWER
GREEDY TRIBE OF HOHENZOLLERN

For minute let's study the lesson of the Hohen-
zollern tribes tumble:
Hohenzollerns were above the law in the Ger
many they created and misruled.
Nobody could arrest one of them, no matter
what they did or didn't do.
They could break speed laws, moral codes, re-
ligious rules, and evade taxes with impunity and
immunity. Only William the Devil could punish
a member of the tribe. And William thought no.
body could punish him.
Well, there's new deal now. New Germany
has decreed that hereafter all Hohenzollerns shall
be amenable to and under the civil law, subject
to arrest for lawbreaking, just like burglars and
other criminals.
From petty thievng the Hohenzollerns rose in
olden Germany to gang-leaders. Then they be-
came robber-barons They evouted into "divine
right despots
They held the lines Of all Germans, the property
of all Germany at the. mercy Of their word.
So much power made them greedy to rule the
world.
In the attempt they grew dizzy and fell into
Holland.
Power should be shared, not hogged.

All roads from the west are thickly filed with

choked with long trainloads of them. Covered

pearance, their heads bowed in fatigue and flaming
they come back to US, our sons and
brothers. still two, three or four million in num-
her, We cannot greet them with loud hurrahs
or with flowers, whose glaring colors would only
hurt their eyes and hearts But we greet them
nevertheless! We greet them with the waving BAN
ners of honor, with grave homegrown evergreen,
and with quiet, strong handclasp which shall bid
them welcome and say to them how glad we are to
have them home again, and which, above all, ex-
presses our thanks to them. -
We greet you, German soldiers! Germany has
lost the war. But you have won yours. You have
rescued Germany's honor and thus conferred upon
our fatherland the possibility of raising itself up
and building anew. German soldiers! when one
day you take your grandchildren on your knee and
tell them all about this war, you need not be
ashamed. ~ '
All Germans-peasants tradesmen, clerk mer.

their destnies blindly in the hands of kaiser,
