lAMs MUST RE ENEoRcEn.

Interest cannot help being attached to the action which has been taken by the attorney general of the United states in suspending from office for a period of 30 days of the assistant United States district attorney and the deputy United States marshal of the southern district of Illinois for failure to enforce the regulations of the war department against vice and alcoholic liquors
 It must be appreciated that if reg rlations are going to amount to any thing they must be enforced. When those upon whose shoulders the en. forcement rests are lax in their du- ties and fail to insist upon respect the whole object of the restrictions is defeated. It makes no difference whether it is a state or a federal law national state or city regulation, the importance of seeing that the provis- ions thereof are lived up to cannot be disreSarded and have it amount to anything. It is because of the wink ing at violations that so much of the legislation Is absolutely useless.
 lt is therefore recognized that the Government cannot permit its officials 10 do as they please when it comes tC the discharge Of their duties, and ths action taken against the Illinois off. eiais makes 1t evident that it doe: not intend to. Whatever the outcomt Of the hearings which will be giver to these two officials, direct warning is given to those possessing similar authority throughout the country tha ouch laxity will not be tolerated ant salutary effect should, be obtained in the way of closer attention to dut, wherever it is needed.

RESTORING cREezs AND LAcEs,

To restore English crepe told a sheet into sie.erai thicknesses ard lay tagie. Place she crepe on t:its and pin down very closely, pin heads out ward all around.
 Newt lay at the end strip of clean, white rag the length of the veil and eight inches or. so wide wrung out of warm water. Over this hold hot iron so close that it raises the steam and dries the cloth, but on no account let the iron press on the crepe, be- cause the rib would disappear and would never be restored.
 When the strip is dry wet again and repeat, going farther on each time, of course, until the entire surface has been covered. Leave the crepe on the cloth until dry. whn it will be found crisp and equal to new.
 In restoring sman pieces take care they are pinned true and not pulled out of the right run of the threads. This is a little difficult. because the straight way of crepe appears co be bias and vice versa, but once one finds which is which then the task Is much lessened.

AUTO FACTORIES AND WAR


 When the announcement is made that the aHtoffiohiie snannfacturers Of the country are to cut the nanufac- turer of pleasure cars nearly a third it can bs appreciated that 1t means q large reduction in sucA an output, that 1t wiil mean a material curtail- ment in sales and that # the factories were not to be kept busy witfs other orders that hundreds of fhousands would be obliged to seek other en- -ploynnent.
 There is no thought, however, of shutting up the factories Fhe deter imitation to cut the output of pleas ure cars simply means that the efforts of these highly organized plants with their skilled help are to be turned more extensively to war work, and in this respect the manufacturers are showing a commendabie spirit.
 Some of the big atito manufacturers are now extensively engaged in the production of aeroplanes. or aerc- plane parts. Others are at work on submarine chasers and tanks of a new style being brought out in this country They have already curtaiied on theft pleasure cars or else en- larged their factories to take care of this extra work But just now when greater reliance than ever is being placed upon the auto truck. it can he realized that the increased atten. ton which such branch of the auto business win receive by the letting up on the pleasure cars will be just what is required.
 The auto factories ss the result of the decision which~has been made are going to be of greater value than ever. and their action is in keeping with the war needs of the country.

NEED eEEArER IRAN EvrR.

While 1t is impossible to. deny the importance of the western front and the fact that the decisive victory will in all probability be won there, the eastern and southeastern fronts can- not be safely overlooked or disregard ed.
 Increased attention has been di- rected to this by the situation which exists in Russia and by the beast which has been made by Germany to the effect that by the peace treaties which it has been able to make as the
 result of its war activities that a free trade route has now been ac-
 quired 10 India From the opening cf the war all possible means have
 been employed to stir up a revolt
 in India. Tie activities and effects have been shown in many ways When the British captured Bagdad they put an end to the dream about the Ser lin to Bagdad route but with Russia disorganiEed and peace made with. the Ukrafnians, and Runania deserted by the ally upon which it had placed full
 dependence, and forced to make a peace which gives the central powers free access for it's armies, to the Black sea and territory contagious to India, anofher route is disclosed
 What will acome of the effort which is underway in Russia to reorganize for the defense of that nation is most uncertain. It is apparent. however, that the part which Japan cen ard should play in putting d check upon the
 advancement of the central powers. to | the east and southeast is by no means small and the quicker advantage can
 be taken of it the better. Its help

GERMAN GOVERNMENT PROP
 ERTY

Sufficient evidence to convince it that it must look out for itself and do its utmost to overcome the plans and activities of the enemy has been re- ceived by this country. This was shown previous to the entrance of this ocunty into the war but more plainly indicated in the past year. and it is upon this recognition that legislation is asked giving the custodian of alien property increased powers SO that he can take over, utfl- ire and dispose of property in this country belonging to the Gernian gov ernment or in which the government is deeply interested.
 It has been found out that the Ger man government has been making ex- tensive use of the concerns in this country in which it is financially in. rolved. The officials have been act. ing as Gernany's agents, they gave what assistance they could Id the en bassy officials of the enemy as long as they were tolerated here and be- cause they were not stepped they continued 10 carry on such activities ss were possible even after a state oi war was declared.
 It is but proper therefore that this government should take over the piers cf the North German Lloyd and the Hamourg-American lines and put them to the best possible use with out reserving such profits as may bs made from them for the future benefit Of the enemy. It is a time when na. uonal safety has got to be considered and while 1t is not proposed that thu property of individual enemy alien: will be treated in such a manner. tha which is under the control of the Ger. man government cannot expect to b. treated with any such consideration

OTHER VIEW POINTS

When doctors disagree who shall decide? The seed catalogues loudly proclaim shortage of seeds. One of the leaders who has boosted prices more than one hundred per cent. says there is not half enough to go
 around Ou( own State agricuitur- al authorities declare there is an
 ample supply. They are probably right. Some few lines that are usu- ally supplied by Holland ana other European countries are likely to be limited, but America has become practically self supporting since the
 war and has raised an abundance of staple seeds. We do not believe the
 shertaas cry is warranted nor the
 outrageous boost in prices justifed
 by actual conditions The dealers who handle trustworthy stock at reasonable prices will receive. the bulk of the patronage.-Bristoi Press.
 There would be something radically wrong with womanheod if it failed in the crucial hour to appeal for elem eRcy in the case of those who have cemitted error. The very nature of

Consequently, we now have appeals to the President from the San Francisco Federation of Womens Clubs in be- half of the four American soldiers sentenced to death for sleeping while on sentry duty. The motherhood of America will applaud your leniency, 9 say the women folk In this case there is likely to be leniency, if such a thing is possible under rigid rni1i- tary discipline.
