Baker Tells Some Interest ing Things Concerning Work of Making U. s.
 Army in France.
BIG ARMY MADE QUICKLY
In 19 Months United States Had Nearly 100000 Under Arms; 2'000,-
 Were in France.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-In sketch ing in his annual report the building up of the war army, Secretary New ton D. Baker of the War Department selects a few striking figures as illustrations of what each step meant and what has been accomplished On the day the armistice was signed he declares more than 25 per cent of the entire male popualtion of the country between the ages of IS and 31 was in the military service, the army having reached total of g., 664 GOO men, more than 2,000000 Of whom were in Europe, as compared with a strength of 189,674 in March 1917 week before war was de clared.
 To illustrate the speed of this ex pansion, the report cites the fac. that the British army in France hac reached it's high mark in the Sun mer of 1917. th~e, year3 after th, beg'nn'ng If tho WIT. an' that f gure was "eliell'lv Ne lr1 1000 900 men" It took 19 months for the United States to reach the same strength there, but MT. Baker points out that during those years of battle British manpower had been heavily called upon to replace casualties while for many months the flow O! American troops all went to augmen the force being assembled. To some extent this was offset, he adds, b, the far greater transportation diff culties of the American project.
 Recapitulating the total American casualties, 236,1OS men as alread, announced, MT. Baker said the death due to battle alone were 36,000 and that half of the wounded reported probably suffered slight injury" H. adds that Federal battle fatalitie' in the Civil War totaled 10000 Japan lost 5000 men in the Russo Japanese war and Germany lost 2S, 600 in the Franco-Prussian war.
 Speaking of the selective service MT. Baker makes this observation without discussing the question O uHlNeTSdl IullltdIy tTdlulH6, oOOn l' arise:
 "At that time (when his proceeding annual report was issued) there wa ample evidence that the selectivt draft was a swift, effective and just means of securing the military strength necessary for the conduc of great war. The experience O the past war has strongly reinforced that conviction"
 Discussing the extensive engineer ing undertakings in France, the neet for which has ended with the sign ing of the armistice, MT. Baker give this hint at the policy the Govern ment is pursuing.
 Steps have been taken to reduce orders and cancel contracts for sucf items as will not be needed ir France. In this connection, however care is being taken to assure oul selves that we are not deprivine France of material which she so urg ently needs to replace that worn out

A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS-

GAS Maine goes, so goes the country,
used to be popular prophecy in political
affairs twenty years ago.
If it has any force this year, the next
congress will be Republican, and President
Wilson will complete the war with Re-
publican house and senate. In fact, aside
from Maine, that seems to be the proba-
bility.
There is no cause for alarm in this. The
war record of the Republican party has
shown that it has been a spur to the adj
mlinistration in war preparations, rather
than drag upon it. Both parties are
getting rid of their pacifsts. One by one
they are being dropped by the wayside,
and it matters little, so far as the war is
concerned, whether the next congress has
a Republican or Democratic majority.
Certainly, Germany can gain little COM
fort from the coming into power of a
party which has led the way in advocating
an army Of 100000, greatly enlarged war
preparations, extension of the draft, and
an air ministry. Also we may get some
sort Of a budget plan out of Republican
victory.

FLOORED BY SCIENCE.

One of Moorheads physicians played a
low trick on The Forum this week
He checked up an editorial with the aid
of a laboratory and chemists scales, and
he. says we're wrong. Lacking labora-
tory, we can't dispute him.
It was the result of our attempt to get
the sugar ration down to daily basis.
We figured it as approximately an ounce
a day, which would build up small re-
serve supply especially in short months.
That ounce, we said, could be measured
in 212 level tablespoons. With this the
physician has no serious quarrel, but he
takes exception to the statement that six
level teaspoons make an ounce. He
claims that he can get ten to twelve out of
an ounce of sugar. He sent us an ounce
of sugar to prove it. Well keep the sugar,
admit he's right, and blame it on our tea
spoons. They always looked big to us
anyway.
Emerging from this adventure into sta
tistics, however, we might issue new bull
letin to sugar lovers, and urge them to
adopt the easy method of weighing out an
ounce a day.

SHOWING WHERE THE SHOE
PTN(tHES


Within few days of the announcement
that all Of the allies, including America,
had recognized the new Czecho-Slovak
nation, and just at the time reports are
current that America may recognize the
Jugo-Slavs' claims to nationality, comes
an announcement by Austria that separ-
ate province will be formed Of Bosnia,
Herzegovina and Croatia.
They are to have separate provincial
government under the Austro-Hungarian
empire, with Count Tisza, former Hungar-
ian premier, at its head.
So the leaven is working!
The move cannot be construed as any
thing but an attempt at compromise which
borders on capitulation.
1t is an eleventh hour attempt to placate
the subject races in Austria with a pros
poet of partial self government.
But it is too late, as Austria S keen long
ing for peace is too late. 1t should have
been offered in 1914, which was also the
proper time for consideration of the bless
ings Of peace. 1t is very doubtful if the
offer will have even semblance of the
desired effect, for the oppressed races Of
Austria see complete freedom in prospect,
but it does reveal in a startling way the
effect American peace aims are having in
this nondescript kingdom.

Other Men s Views
An Editorial That May or May Not Square
with The Views Of The Forum

From The Colunbiad, official organ of the
Knights of Columbus:
BY one Of those quaint perversions in their or
dinarily powerful and brutal logic, perversions
which have already succeeded in shattering the
Prlssian dream OF world dominion and will ulti-
nnately bring Germany to the losers side Of the
peace table, the Germans have continuously as
saulted the morale of the allies. They have killed
irdiscriminate ly-old men, women, children even
pet domestic animals; they have torn up shade
trees devastated chateaus and a favorite d.
version OF their versatile gunners is the hurting
of high explosives through the priceless windows
OF ancient churches.
But they are quite on the wrong track. They
think apparently, that morale is an antonym to
measles and that il they can create misery they
have prepared the condition for defeat, All
wrong, Wilhelm, all wrong!
Observe an object lesson in morale--a regiment
of lugty young American marines rushing over
the top into the heart of the enemy, singing
Were here: the gangs all here facing brave
10y in their breasts and busiuesslike bayonets in
their hands, facing eagerly all the hell they in
souctantIy sing about. Observe the War-Woru
French battalions encouraging their hard-pressed
comrades so that they turn and astound The
enemy; observe the retreating italians turn and
rout their too-conddent foenen Observe, also,
the high hearted determination of all the people
of all the allied nations to 1T through to the
victorious end,
That's moralea

WHY PEACE IS IMPOSSIBLE.

The only disclosures in today's install.
nent of the official German Bolshevik doc
uments, are that on June 8, 1914, before
war was declared and even before the al
legged cause of it transpired, Germany or
dered all her industrial leaders to open
their sealed instructions on mobilization,
and that on November %, 1914, long be-
fore America was at war, Germany let
loose her destruction agents" in Canada

Column Devoted To The Task OF Keep

The Pembina Pioneer has this comment on the
Nonpartisan league activities in Canada:
According to the Canadian Press the Nom
partisan league has entered politics in AL
berta, charging the SIS membership fee as
here. But the government is taking the bull
by the horns by requiring the league to sub
NIT a statement of how the money is being
expended. This is liable to affect the prog

there would be startling revelations.

growers should get fair price fixed on
the costs of production, just as the wheat
growers have, and that is what President
Wilson intends to give them. The only
fair criticism that can be made, is that
the step should have cen taken year
ago.
