INVEST IN HUMANITY

By JOHN OLIVER LA GORGE Associate Editor. National Geographic Magazine.

GUTTER Little Children to come unto me-" de- NO clared the compassionate Christ.
 But never since He dwet in flesh upon the earth have there been many Little Children" in need of compassion w.
 There are the"Little Children" who have gone to France for you and me and for Christendom and by going have given their all Can you do less? Shall you keep from your boy your neighbours boy that which is symbolic of the Compassionate One by neg lecting the call of the Red Cross Mother?
 Then there are the uncounted Little Children of our allies who have fallen wounded and ill in de- fense of their home fires. Who but the Red Cross Mother can know the suffering, the anguse of the shell-torn thrststricken soldier who lies upon the ghostly bed of No Mans Land? Will you deny him the life-giving cup?
 Think also of the Little Children of devastated lands Some are Little Children" in size and tender vears Others, alas are mature in stature and age, but none the less Little Children" in their helpless ness--their abiect need. Can in plenty with hold from them the bare bread of existence? Can we still our inner voice with the thought that others will bear our burden when in heart must know that there are others?
 The Red Cross helps no who does not need help hundred times more than need the money. Therefore let us give, give until feel it, give until it pinches. Then and only then shall know that we have indeed offered the Little Children of the war the tender compassion of a nation.

What the Italian Premier Thinks Of
 the American Red Cross

When the Austrians last October routed the Italian Army by trickery and drove before them half a million refugees. the part which the American Red Cross played in this stupendous tragedy will go down in the history of Italy and the world as one of the most magnificent dashes of relief work that has ever come to light
 Listen to what the Italian Premier said of this work Tn his address al the opening of Parliament early last De cemher:

AIRCRAFT AND ORDNANCE.

No intelligent person questions the absolute good faith of President Will son, and no such person suspects him of any desire to suppress ugly facts in connection with the aircraft fiasco The recent appointment of ex-Justice Charles D. Hughes to cooperate with the attorney general in conducting the investigation of the serious charges of dishonesty and, one may add criminal sabotage-that nave been preferred against some of those re sponsible for the breakdown of the aircraft program is probably the very best that could have been made. The Investigation will be thorough
 The presidents letter to Mir Hughes affords proof, however, that the in qulry planned by the department oi justice does not, and in the e,nature of things cannot, cover the whole field. The president speaks of prosecutions of the guilty and protection of the in nocent as the objects of this proposed inquiry. Both are essential and com mendable objects. But an investiga- ton so defined probably will not dis close the whole truth concerning the  industrial and technical aspects of the aircraft situation. The vital question, after all. relates to the prospects of quantity production of planes in the near future.
 There is obvious need for such an independent investigation by the sen ate of the aircraft situation as is au- thorized in the amended Chamberlain resolution. The president properly objected to a sweeping investigation of the conduct of the war" and attribut- ..ed the original Chamberlain resolution to rooted distrust of the administra ton and a desire on the part of his opponents to take over" the control of military operations This may be an unwarranted imputation, but 1t is wise on all accounts to limit the sen ate investigation to two perfectly defi- nite subjects. Aircraft is one and ordnance is another. To ascertain why quantity production has been so great ly delayed and so completely prevent ed in both these exceedingly impor- tant fields Is not to evince want of confidence in the president or to seeA to take over the conduct of the war
 Administration senators cannot ob- iect with any show of reason to an investigation clearly designed to help. not to hinder. the chief executive; to an investigation calculated to reassure the anxious fathers and mothers Of the brave boys who are being rushed to F'rance-lwith the earnest approvai of all patriotic Americans-as re- gards the manufacture of the guns ane the aircraft without which American troops cannot successfully attack the enemy or defend themselves.

Probability President Will

End

| Washington, Jan. 23.-With Americs
at war. the nation faces the prospect of 8
contest between the chief executive and
a powerful section of Congress. The
/ presidents denuncation of Senator
Chamberlain's attack on the war depart
ment and his endorsement of Secretary
Baker, united all congressman opposed to
1.-THE suggested war cabinet.
On the other hand, supporters of the
proposed cabinet refused to recede from
their position, both Democrats and Re.
pubicans being enrolled among the adj
ministration's opponents. Senator Cham
berlain made no new reply to the pres
ident's criticisms.
A bitter senatorial fight over the war
cabinet bill is indicated
Senator's Chamberlain and Hitchcock,
both Democrats, disputed the presidents
assertion that news of plans for war
cabinet came to him only second hand.
They had advised him Of the plans last
week, they declared, and he replied stat
ing his objections.
II was also denied that war operations
had been delayed by congressional in
vestigations, as stated by Mr.. Wilson.

fled before a Senate committee, they had

met. Importance is attached to the
Austrian political situation by London
newspapers, some of which believe that
the government is aiding the workmen's
propaganda for peace in the hope of in
fiuencing the Brest-Litovsk negotiations.
The fact that the Austrian government
permitted full reports Of the meeting be-
tween the labor leaders and the min
istry to leave the country is looked upon
as significant. Dr. Won Seydler indi-
Gated no lessening of the demands on
Russia and German newspaper reports
that unless the Russians accept the offer
of the central powers the peace nego-
tiations will be broken off. The confer
ences at Brest -Litovsk have been sus-
pended until Jan. % as Foreign Minister
Trotzky, head of the Russian delegation,
has gone to Petrograd for consultation
with his government.

TONIC TREATMENT
OF NEURASTHENIA
Preparations Containing Alcohol Should
Not Be Used by Sufferers from the
Great American Disease.

Neurasthenia is condition of exhaus-
ton of the nervous system. The causes
are varied. Continuous work, mental or
! physical. without proper vacation peri
DDS, without proper attention to diet and
exercise, also worry over the struggle for
success, are the most common causes.
Excesses of almost any kind may pro-
duce it. Some diseases like fevers ard
the grip, will cause neurssthenia So also
will a severe shock, intense anxiety or
grief.
The symptoms are oversensitiveness,
irritability, disposition to worry over
trifies, headache, possibly nausea.
