BIC LOSS Of MEN
FOR THE GERMANS
TO REACH CHANNEL PORTS 1T
WOULD BE NECESSARY FOR THE
GERMAN ARMY TO SACRIFICE
LARGE NUMBERS.

NEW YORK, May dangerous de-
pIetion of the German reserves hence
forth will be necessary if Won Hinden-
burg continues his effort to dislodge
the British and capture the Channel
ports, according to J. W. T. Mason,
United Press war expert.
The Battle of Ypres, which is the
first real battle for the channel ports
in the present series of combats is in
reality a strategic struggle between
Won Hindenburg and Foch, concerning
the employment of their reserves.
There is no longer any doubt but that
while up to the present Foch has re-
fused to hazard his own reserves for
defensive purposes, while Won linden
burg has ruthlessly sacrificed his own
men. If Won Hindenburg is stopped
before capturing the channel ports,
and if the Allies have not been thrown
into the conflict, Won Hindenburg has
lost by all the rules of the war game,
as even the German people understand
them.
Not only will the total German
slaughter be very much greater than
the Allies. but also the German front
will have been extended to useless
distance that soon must be volunta-
rily shortened The present battle,
therefore, is a gigantic struggle on the
part of Foch to save his reserves and
save the channel ports. and on the
part of Won Hindenburg to use up his
reserves and win the channel ports.
Whether in the end, Foch will decide
it better to lose the ports rather than
his reserves cannot be known at pres
ent The argument in favor of this
procedure is based on the probability
that it will require more than Ger
many can supply to keep her front in
tact to the channel towns for any con-
siderable period. A long thin line
might be cut at point that would
involve annihilation for the Germans
in Calais and Bolougne.
With a powerful American army in
France by the end of the summer to
increase the allies reserve strength
strategy might even then be carried
out if in the meantime Won linden
burg reaches the channel

sible they are undergoing post-grad-

MANY RAILROAD MEN THROWN
OUT OF WORK In ATLANTA

ATLANTA, Ga, May More than
1z5 railroad freight and passenger
agents were thrown out of employ
ment when the government took over
the railroads of the country and abol-
ished all offices except those abso
ute1y necessary to the handling OF
traffic, and the local commercial
bodies and launched movement to
find positions for these men, Some
have moved to other cities, but the
majority will remain here on account
of the fact that they had boguht homes
and established their family ties in
Atlanta Most of them are men of
middle age or older and drew good
salaries from the railroads they rep
resented. The stenographers in their
offices have experienced very little
difficulty in securing positions, as the
demand for this class of work is very
brisk

stronger than the supreme command
assumed We are unable to continue
the offensive, owing to lack of horses.
The region before Ypres is a great
lake, and therefore impossible. The
whole country between our Amiens
front and Paris is mined and will be
blown UP. The people, continues
Salzmann, have begun to lose their
nerve. Replying in the reichstag, the
minister of war said something like
this:
1T goes without saying that there
are big losses in such struggle. Our
losses in one part of the front have
been very heavy Two-thirds of the
company leaders in many regiments
have fallen
'It is said that a certain deputy
thereupon told his electors in a north
German town:
"The minister of war has openly
declared our losses to be so heavy
that the offensive must be abandon
ed"

THE INSURANCE OF
HEALTH

The Legislature has proposed to
the people OF California a constitu-
tional amendment which would per-
nit the Legislature to establish any
kind Of state Health insurance
system which 1t might desire.
The amendment does not propose
to provide health insurance for all,
but only for those OF the smallest
incomes. Most Of. and possibly all,
the cost is to be borne by those
who are not themselves insured at
all.
An enormous amount OF sickness
is the result Of vicious habits OF
the individuals concerned. It is pre-
ventable by the individuals them
selves leading decent lives. Before
taking any action whatever. a ra-
tional people would inquire how
much sickness is the result Of bad
habits and whether the sins of those
who make themselves sick shall be
visited upon them or upon entirely
innocent people.
II there Is to be health insurance
why should It not apply to those
who pay as well a tso those who dc
not pay.
This is simply another form Of
Socialism which would saddle {
free people with paternalistic con
troll tending more and more to make
them wards OF the state and mere
cogs In the political wheel.
The same measure Is being agitat
ed in other states and Is simply par
OF the organized socialistic propa
ganda.

with the passing Of DR.. Jacob H.
Gallinger on August II, the United
States Senate lost It's Grand Old
Man. the Nation lost one Of the abb
est and sanest legislators, the City
of Washington lost its best friend.
and New England added one more
star to her crown Of great states
men. Forty-seven years Of public
service as a representative of the
people. beginning with his election
to the New Hampshire house Of rep
resentatives in 1872. during the
days Of reconstruction, terminated
with the close Of distinct epoch in
American history. But two men dur
ing that period broke the continuity
of Republican control of the destin-
les Of the country, Grover Cleveland
and Woodrow Wilson. Under the
party of which Gallinger was one of
the acknowledged leaders, he saw
this country emerge from the Civil
war, exhausted and saddled with
debt, recuperate and become econ
omically the most powerful nation
on the globe, its industries devel-
oped to pitch which has enabled
1t to stand the terrific pressure of
great war and which will ultim-
ately score decisive victory over
the enemies Of popular government.
How much Of this is due to the
statesmanship Of Jacob Gallinger re-

Within a short time 1t is probable that there will not be an automobile filling station in the state open on Sunday
 This will be done as war measure, and not because of the operation of any Sunday laws.
 The automobile people have not ask ed for 1t, but they are practically unanimous in agreeing that t will be the proper thing to do, and that they are wiling to abide by it strictly if it is made To apply to everyone.
 1t has the approval eff the national automobile organization, as well as the state and local motor clubs. and this week will be presented to the State Council of Defense for it's en- dorsement
 It has been pointed out that the closing of all service stations on Sun day will enable the trade to turn loose large number of men for war ST vice One Little Rock concern reports that | could give up six men from it's force if it were relieved from this ex- ira service.
 There have been requests in this city previously for the closing of the stations under the Sunday law, but at that time, 1t was urged IS a necessity that the stations should be kept open for the aid and convenience of the travelling public
 But now 1t comes as a war measure. and as such will appeal to all patriot ic citizens. When everybody is mak- ing sacrifices along all lines, it should be an easy matter to cut out some of the joy-riding, or at least provide gasoline and other necessities on Sat urday.
 And the time may come when the government will regulate the use of gasoline.

Funds Almost Exhausted.

Three weeks of the Constitutional Convention have passed and from present indications, it will take at the very least three weeks more to finish the work that has been outlined
 Before that time, however, the ap- propriation for the work of financinr the further session will have to be de- termined It is probable that Gov ernor Brough will issue a definciencv proclamation and make some arrange ments for securing the money. The delegates are patriots, every one of them, but they are also imbued with a good supply of human nature. And 1t is not human nature to neglect bus mess and work for the public for nothing, unless you are working with the dollarayear cclass. As it is, the S4 day per diem does not pay the expenses of half the members of the Convention. It therefore becomes largely a matter of patriotism with the majority of them.
