Facing Domestic Enemies

1T is undeniably true that there is a more
1 Or less alarming degree OF unrest In this
country which has manifested Itself in viru-
lent form during the past few weeks. This
is not revolution even Instruction, but 1t
is incendiarism, and il has led to demonstra-
tions, to widespread disturbances and to riot
ing. Back Of ii and beneath it is the slow
reaction from the state OF war, and while
such a condition may not be regarded as III
evitabfe, it is certainly not wholly unexpected
The unfortunate phase OF this sort of thing
is It's tendency to spread Agitation easily
becomes infectious; 1t may with little effort
become epidemic, and once it has reached
that state ii becomes dangerous Taking
advantage OF this situation are many hun
dredS OF the countrys potential enemies
They may not be aliens or German ''propa-
gandists' or rabid Bolshevsts but they arc
deliberate wreckers, and nation that has
regard for its own welfare and no government
which claims the respect Of its own people
dares temporize with such an element
These enemies were present in almost
every large community while the war was
being fought. They are not the overnight
product of tho period following the armis-
tice, but while hostilities were actually in
progress they had not the boldness to assert
themselves. They undoubtedly realized how
relentlessly the nation would deal with them
under what they knew to be it's sweeping
war powers. As a result they remained an
parently innocuous until the strain OF war
hao passed and the country, relaxing its
muscles, turned once more 10 peaceful pur-
suits.
Now these hostile forces are abroad and
are active. They are daring They have as
sumed that they are immune from arrest
as traitors when they stab their government
III the back and that they will not be
slienced' when they preach sedition They
are taking freedom OF speech TO mean license
OF speech, and are openly assailing the au-
thorlty OF their government and challenging
that authority to do its worst
Obviously, the Acknowledgement is the Of
hcial who should. in the absence of the
president, take full leadership in the pursuit

Price Sterilization Fails

THE fate OF the Presidents program for

peeh invited TO accept stable price had not
resisted. On tho contrary, they went into
conferences with the commission with a prom

desire TO improve market conditions and ia
render patriotic service by so doing
