Washington. ID. c., March 18.-That
there is not q red light district today
within an effective radius Of any
army cantonment or naval station
where any considerable number OF
soldiers or sailors are in training. IS
the claim Of Raymond 3. FOsdick,
chairman Of the Commission on
Training Camp Activities.
The commission makes the further
statement that commercial vice has
not been scattered by this action, but
mum, and that as a result, the per-
centage Of secret diseases among our
troops. which is the greatest danger
to which they are exposed in train
ing. has been reduced in most OF the
camps 10 one or two per cent and
sometimes to less.
The length to which the war de-
partment is prepared TO 90 in order
to make its viii effective in this
matter was sharply realized by
northwestern town which refused to
clean up in response to a demand
from the war department The com
handing officer Of the neighbOring
cantonment issued an order which
forbade any soldier to visit that
town. The pocket OF every business

Think of the incident that oc-
Cured in 1864 in the administration
of Abraham Lincoln as President of

pect of the whole country was that
of a seething, boiling Niagara. Some
gentlemen from the West were ex-
cited about the commissions or omis-
sions of the administration. Presi-
dent Lincoln heard them patiently
and then replied: Gentlemen, sup
pose all the property you were worth
was in gold, and you had put it in
the hands of Blondin to carry across
the Niagara river on a rope; would
you shake the cable or keep shout
ing out to him, "Blondin, stand up
a little straighter!' 'Blindon, stoop
a little more!' Go a little fasteru
Lean a little more to the south
'Blondin, lean a little more to the

Under the German Yoke

did not blush to horsewhip passers-by
who did not salute them or who dld
not bow low enough. At EtreauX q
blind man was struck by a colonel
whom he could not see.
Above all, the salute eXtorted from
women displays to the full an innate
Vulgarity peculiar to the German.
We recall our own Louis XIV, always
the first to salute the women in his
service, absolute master as he was.
Our secular French tradition of cour-
tesy and chivalry rises in revolt. But
nothing is more German than to lay
the heavy hand of oppression on
women. Why, at Saint Quentin, in
1915, an elderly woman, in her ter
rified haste to salute an officer and
make her way for him on the side
walk fell and broke her leg.
Sometimes this female salute is
elaborated; women are compelled to
smile when bowling. These enxious
and brief-stricken women, torn from
their husbands and children and
brothers, these women who are
robbed and whose homes are con-
stantly searched and tossed and
turned over like the bedding of cat
tie. are commanded to smile upon
the invaders!
