Dear Mother:-
Am in Base Hospital, IA in Mars
France effects of the gas | got some
time ago. Couldn't eat On the line as
my stomach was on the bum right, also
my eyes. Well when we came out to
90 to another Sector the doctor sent
me here, little rest and good feed will
fix me as feel much better, and in a
day or so will be ready to go back
Well we came out o. X. Some OF our
officers didn't come back, and the last
day there, three of us nearly got it, but
the Almighty spared us, and here am
all o. X. Mother, a hospital seems like
heaven. The food, now that can eat
little, is delicious, and the place is
clean. There's acres of hospital build
ings, built like camps. The nurses are
from Chicago st. Luke's Hospital. 1t
seems good to see them. When up
front all you see is horses, artillery,
men and ruined villages. Back here
one can't imagine war is on. We rode
two days on the hospital train to get
here. Il can mention the towns when
not on the line), and when we got in,
those who could eat were fed, and we
were treated nicely. Officers sure do
get well taken care Of, OF course, they
pay extra for their mess at the hospital.
There's Quartermasters Station
here where officers can buy cigars,
candy, etc., from the commissary.
Nurse comes in and asks us what we
wish to buy, and the Red Cross lady
gets it for us. There's lady, some
society lady from the South, who is do
ing work here, not as nurse, but as
volunteer. She came in and gave us
each box with prophylactic tooth
brush, not cheap articles when you
consider they are free. Anything you
want, she'll get it for you. When the
train stopped, ladies (American) came
aboard, gave out candy, gum, cigaretts.
No other countries have women doing
those things for their soldiers, because
they haven the price. The American
are it with everyone here, and I'm sure
glad | am an American.
The people home are sure good to
send money and their boys reap the
harvest here. No other soldiers get the
things the Doughboy Yanks get. When
up front, we had more chocolates and
cigarettes than we ever had. Regard
less of shells, the X. c. wagons Sautos)
and Red Cross cars came up with the
stuff.
The other day one of the boys was
crazy (shell schocked) in his delirium
he was yelling, "Jump in the River,
we'll get those damned Boche (cuss
words.)" He was up where we were.
They sure chased the Boches over the

SHOW PERIL IN WILSON
PLEDGE FOR FREE TRADE
Republicans Cite Third Clause In
Presidents Peace Program.

The following article is from the pen
of Arthur NJ. Evans, Washington cor
respondent for the Chicago Tribune
aSd recognized as one of the ablest
political writer's at the national capt.
tai. The article Is dated October 20.
1t is of particular interest to Michi-
gan voters:
Charges that President Wilson
and the Democratic party contemplate
esta blishing free trade with Germany
after the war were made by the Re-
publican congressional committee to-
day. The committee cites the third
clause of the presidents peace pro-
gram which provides for:
"The removal, as far as possible, OF
all economic barriers and the estab-
lishment Of an equality of trade con-
ditions among all nations consenting
to the peace and associating them
selves for its maintenance"
This Is a positive declaration that
the treaty Of peace must guarantee to
Germany free trade with the United
States without tariff safeguards what
ever to protect the American laborer,
manufacturer, farmer, and business
man from foreign competition in his
home markets." the Republican COM
mittee says.
Must Meet Cheaper Labor.
Under such a policy Germany will
buy raw materials In the United
States, manufacture these materials
In Germany, and sell the manufac-
tured products in American markets
In competition with similar products
made in America by American man.

restrictions for the protection Of AM

mo one doubts that In an open
and unrestricted American field Ger
many, with her cheaper labor, will be
able to dominate the markets for
manufactured products in the United
States and will drive similar American
products out of those markets, with
the ruin of American manufacturers
and harm to American labor swiftly
following
American labor will never agree,
and quite properly, to wage scales on
a par with the comparative pittances
paid to German labor before the war,
which undoubtedly will be paid after
the war.

1.-THE American manufacturer, with
the higher wages that he must pay,
cannot compete with the German man
ufacturer In many lines, IL the United
States Is on free trade basis.
Free trade, absolute and complete,
with all its tremendous ills, looms in
the near future, under a continuation
of Democratic rule.
"a Republican house and senate,
elected In November would be a
guarantee to the people that a free
trade disaster would be prevented. A
Republican senate would never agree
to treaty of peace giving free trade
privileges to Germany. Reconstruc,
tion problems after the war will tax
the experience and the genius of the
ablest men in the United States. II is
we'll known that most of these men
are Republicans"
