 The government seeks harmony; wants production Its greatest the attainment of these ends lies appeal to the people Americans. Where voluntary engagements are not sufficient imposes regulations and qures obedience

 Corporations that do not obey will be- commandeered otherwise brought to reason
 The machnists toomakers the heart of American machine production anad this is war of machinery is wise and reasonable that these essential wormen should be in harmony with the purposes of the naon all their able complaints should be remeded Unreasonable complaints proceeding unwse leadership from proerman sources m from he influence of Russian Boshevkm must be sternly suppressed
 What is wanted in Bridgeport is harmony concerted ef fort production and all around good feeling any udges can bring these elements into being will be Mr. Taft and Mr. Walsh aided by the liberal and just policy of the President

THE ONE THAT IS LOST

"A hluH BRISBANE is probably the ablest journalist in the United States He certainly the greatest writer of editorial His stock of ideals is unlimited He s tba ouS possessor of every ethical standard knows right rom wrong In all the and in the finer shades which separate the extremes of right and wrong
 Brisbane knows, perhaps thousand times better than the average man. that wrongs legal there are wrongs enurey beyond the reach of mans law There grevous wrongs which millions and women of no high ethical Cducalon will accept as not wrongs at all.
 Brisbane has destroyed many puffed up pretender bv holding him up to the public having committed one of these oenses permitted by law condoned by the of mankind but condemned in the of conscience where the judge the court is the ideals of superior men.
 senator has legal right to correspond with whom he peases but Brisbane often caught writing to Standard Oil The fact no at a outside the honorable ideals often ruined that senator
 It is Mr. Brisbane who has enforced most rigid code He IS seen to have departed from the teaching of his life me the annals of American journalism there is not transaction more 8evOu than Brisbane purchase of The Washington Times with money borrowed through Christian Fegnspan trustee for group of brewers who mostly German brewers
 This transaction doubt is perfectly legal is probably within the code that governs ordinary business morals
 is not within the code that Arthur Brisbane has taught It entirely outside the ethics Arthur Brisbane upon public during years of active newspaper work
 Brisbane knows to what extent the elimination of the beer industry has been made necessary because this industry was stronghold of German influence in America He knew that the nation in process of settling great national ques- tOn relating to prohibition, and that the settlement take place in Washington
 When Brisbane took several hundred thousand dollars ny Germdn brewers through corporation that had only he knew he outragng the ethics oabe that he defyng the precepts of honorable journalism.
 His defense is brazen and specous True he advocated during 20 years the prohibition of strong drinks of beer and light wines.
 This advocacy did not justify the appropriation of the funds of great German brewers for the purchase paper Washington where at the very seat government the action of the national legislature might be influenced
 It is sad that Brisbane splendid in his natural acquired gifts should be found in situation utterly nexcus- able in one of his moral understanding
 Does Brisbane perhaps believe that morality is something for the discipline of ordinary by which superior persons who teach it not bound?

100000 SHIFT TO ESSENTIAL JOBS
Gen. Crowder Makes Re port Based on Returns
 From Draft Boards.

Washington, Sept. 20e-~TheFwork or fight regulations of General Crow der have caused 100000 men of mht- tary age to change from nor-product- i've to essential occupations. This es- innate, based. on reports by@the local draft boards, the Federal Employ ment Service, i4the Emergency Fleet Corporation and .thearetan merchants associations was@ made> yesterdaX by Gen. Crowder.
 The majority aofaAhee Tnertg affected by the work or fight order changed occupations without instructions from
 their local boards, says Gen. Crowuera and while 52.826 registrants were notified to- seek other employment ir
 is believed that almost s.lnany mora sought other occupations without waiting for action by the draft ofh- cials.
 'It is estimated<rha for every one of the men who notified the local boards of a change%to productive oc- equations three or four men moved from non-productive to productive work without action by their local
 boards" it was stated at Gen. Crow ders office.
 In 152 retail stores in the larger cities of the country which were af- fected by the work or fight order more than 1000 clerks of military age sought other employment. Ten of | the hotel in Washington informed | Gen, Crowder that 176 men that had
 been employed in varius capa cities | had gone into waS productive work
 elsewhere.
 l Gen. Crowder and his assistants re- !rfrained from answering questions con- corning the extent to which the work
 or fight regulations will be applied
 to the men who were registered last week. Limitations were made, how
 ever, that the regulations will later be made to include all men whose names are contained on the lists of the Provost Marshal Generals office.
 Because of the confidence which 1 the country appears to have in Gen. Crowders administration of the draft
 law countless inquiries are coming in
 concerning the next phase5of' the draft
 involved in the classification of regis
 trants on the basis of quest1onnaires
 returned next week.
 | The Provost Marshal GeueraEsgof-
 flee has outlined the general paansof
 procedure, but the pAcations of 'fhese principles rests with the district | boards, so that in the great*fna5ority 1 of cases registrants must be governed
 by the decision of the distriea boardss

A USEFUL SERVICE

NE USEFUL service the BOlshevii performed for the NJ world. They took the traitor Soukhomlinoff, once minister of for Russia court maraled him. and shot him.
 For years this arch traitor and hypocre plotted against his country Before the he stripped the frontier of de- fnse made false reports the Czar and true reports to Ger many During the Russian invasion of Austro Hungary he caused Russian troops to fight without weapons supplies ammunition He brought about their slaughter by the hundred thousands
 History has other such betrayal Other traitors gave up strong hods themselves went the enemy march ed to the enemy with their troops These persons in minor position; those yielding supreme authority
 Soukhomlnoff alone had the monstrous nature that willing bring to death millions of men, with whose and safety he specially charged.
 Repeatedly attempts made to convince Nicholas Car of the of this minister Nicholas dull wited prince under the thumb of fanacal wife who in her turn guided by the sensualist and religious maniac Raspun.
 the credulity ignorance and incapacy attained heights unbelievable. His execution merely the termna- ton of a life worse than worthless.
