 true, and will be found so whether this or any other inclusive treaty is nego- tiated. A considerable portion of French soil has become hallwoed American territory, not by possession of it, but because thousands of brave American soldiers lie there at rest. That will at all times determine American interest in the protection of France.-New Haven Journal Courier.

THAT CAPTURED CANNON.

New Haven and Hartford are in a pretty little fight over German cannon captured at Epieds by the 10ad regiment. Just at present Hartford seems to be in the lead.
 New Haven puts in a claim for the cannon on the ground that it was captured by Co. B men of New Ha- ven. and if it is to be awarded to Connecticut the place for it to go is where it will be a monument to the valor of the men who took it from the enemy.
 Hartford has been doing some good missionary work with Congressman Lonergan who has already introduced a bill in congress to have the cannon awarded to Connecticut. and at the same time has succeeded in getting General Edwards stirred up to the ex- tent of. starting an investigation to Connecticut men who actually made the capture.
 It is declared that the gun still is in the hands of the war department and that definite disposition of it has not yet been made. Credit for it's capture will be settled largely by the statement of the officers of the four different units which were in the vii cinity at the time of the battle in which it fell into American hands. These were the 101st Infantry. the 102nd Infantry. the 102nd Field Ar tillery and the 101st Machine Gun Battalion.
 The gun was. taken north of the Marne, in the Chateau Thierry sec tor, on July Is. 1918. the second day of the allied drive against the Ger man west flank between Soissons and the Marne.
 It disappeared shortly afterwards. but was discovered in the possession of an engineers outfit, and subse quently restored to the custody of the Twenty sixth division.

A certain book whose principles are credited with the best that has been evolved in modern civilization gives a warning. 5hlt is TO, entirely cut of date. as to the inevitable result of 1eaping the whirlwind from sowing the wind. Such. in the opinion of close observers. is the explanation of the race riots which have been dis grace to Chicago in the past week
 With the connivance, if not with the actual sncourag ge genent of Mayor Thompson, a black belt" was estab- lished in which the mayor and his fol- lowers saw a ready political tool for their hands, and as the bid for it's support declared a 'lidless" condition that invited the worst clements of the thousands of negroes who came from the south to Chicago. The saloons, the brothels. the slum landlords. the politicians had no interest except in the opportunities for exploitation of this element, and when it came to looking to Mayor Thompson's admin istration for protection there was lit- tie to expect. Upon rotten munich pal conditions in Chicago is laid the blame for the relapse to barbarism through which it has just passed.

HARD soILEDo SMITH.

Forced by the clamor of publicity, the war department. though tardily, has sentenced one lieutenant, Hard Boiled" Smith to eighteen months inn prisonment for cruelty to soldiers in a prison camp. It is plain that the ar my prison camps in France were made places of terror. but what is not clear yet is where Hard Boiled" could have outlined the encoura cement to treat American soldiers with greater brutality than any officer dared to use towards an I. w. w. stacker in a can tonment. The acts of Smith were common gossip in the army and could not have escaped the ears of his su- perior officers. It is unbelievable that nothing of the prison camp horrors for which this subaltern was respon- siDle could have filtered through to those who could and she uld have checked such outrageous manifesto tions of abusive discipline.
 Disposition of the case of Hard Boiled" Smith does not end the mat ter, for it is of more importance to find out who was responsible for smith.

 The report that the British govern ment is successfully salvaging the huge fleet of German vessels sunk at Scapa Flow a few weeks ago may re- suit in complicated international sit uation, since by this method the entire German war fleet might be quickly added to the British navy, thus giving 1t huge and dangerous preponder- ance over all other navies. When the German fleet was sunk there was a general sigh of relief because of the feeling that the troublesome question of the distribution of the vessels had thus been obviated: but if England should raise and attempt to annex all of these warships to ner navy. an even more serious controversy might arise.

in the fact that many of them are vio- lating the postal law by having jobs on the side and the postal authorities are winking at the practice because they realize that the wages of the clerks and carriers are not large enough to enable them to support their families thereon. This is a situation that the government should not allow to continue. The good of the postal service requires that each employe should give his whole energy to postal work Nevertheless the men cannot now be blamed for violating the law They must earn enough to support their families decently. The remedy is an. upward revision of the salaries of the postal employees followed by the strict enforcement of the law forbid ding the employees to hold down out side jobs.

cHAPLAINs IN THE ARMY.

s-Asnects of life which hitherto had been to them a closed book have been -eveaied to those clergymen who ssrved as army chapIains and it is their freely expressed belief they will %eturn to their churches better preachers for the experience They lived in the rough with men who had thrown off the conventional aspects of civil life and had simpIihed their be- havior according to the promptings of fundamental instincts This was a fine mental stimulant for the man who was at once an observer and a par Eeipant.
