WAR WON, BUT NOT ENDED
Gronna Says Readjustment Days
Need Aid of Every Citizen.

Statement by United States Senator
AISLE j. Gronna, of North Dakota:
"The war has been won, but has not
ended. Tha days of readjustment will
demand the cooperation and intelli-
gent aid of every loyal American citi-
zen. Money must be raised to defray
war bills which will worry the guar
dams of the nations financial destiny
for some time to come
Patriotic, constructive aid can be
rendered the Government now by even
the smallest wage Garner, and in such
a manner as to make his patriotic ef-
fort boomerang of good fortune The
Government is urging American citi-
zens to continue the purchase of War
Savings and Thrift Stamps and other
Government securities, to help raise
money to defray expenses which at
present are even heavier than those
which arose while the war was on. Our
financial stability must be maintained,
our credit must remain unimpaired.
II heartily approve of the Govern
ment's plan to spread the gospel of
thrift in every home throughout the
land The purchase of War Savings
and Thrift Stamps is practical man
Hesitation of thrift. The likeness of
Benjamin Franklin which appears up
on the new issue is indeed significant,
and homage should be paid to him by
every citizen by investing in Govern
ment securities, thereby laying the
foundation for the national spirit of
thrift which l believe the war has in
culeated in many who formerly did
not know the meaning of the word"

tunity to save of any of the worlds
nations. We have food, clothing and
money-all the good things in life.
But we must make the basis Of this
prosperity secure. Saving makes the
future prosperity of the individual
safe. At the same time it supplies
money to the Government with which
the whole national structure can be
so strengthened that we will not have
to lose or forego our general pros
perity.
With these appeals there is also the
fact that America must loan money
to other nations if those nations are
to continue to buy goods in the United
States and by so doing give steady
employment to our industrial and
agricultural workers. During the war
while we were supplying the world,
our production expanded tremendous
ly We must hold those foreign mar
kets if we are to keep up that produc-
ton rate. We must hold foreign mar
kets or undergo such a slackening in
manufacture and agriculture that
every individual will suffer.
Much of the money loaned through
investment in War Savings Stamps
will go to meet the overwhelming war
expense which remains to be paid
Much of the rest will go to foreign
nations as credits with which they
can buy of US and keep the home
wheels turning"
A Permanent Force.
The War Savings societies formed
this year will probably become an in
creasingly important factor in financ-
ing the United States when the per-
iod for Liberty Loans has passed Ac-
cording to Mr.. Rogers, the Treasury
Department plans to make the socie-
ties permanent so far as possible and
to keep War Savings Stamps on sale
as a means whereby every individual
can save with security at the same
time that he is adding to the Govern
men s income. Not the least advan-
tage of such plan will be a material
reduction of taxes in coming years in
so far as the total of many small saw
ings defrays the heavy national ex-
pense we must carry as result Of
the war.

AIbatross Wonderful FLYER.

The albatross spends it's life, with
the exception of a few weeks given
each year to nesting, entirely at sea,
and is on the wing practically all the
time. Furthermore, it does not pro-
gress by Tapping its wings, as most
ly, if ever, giving a stroke of the wing,
seeming to need no impetus. At nest
ing time, which is early in the year,
the albatross repairs to an isolated is
land, such as one of the Crozet is
lands, in the southern Indian ocean, or
Tristan da Cunha, in the South At

Right Idea About Business.

The old idea that business is get
ting the better of your neighbor is not
only bad business" but nonsense.
Business is not getting the better of
but doing the best for your neighbor
and yourself. If business is not mu-
tually profitable, tbs mutually de-
structive. My neighbours prosperity
helps mine and mine his. When that
old pernicious notion is finally explod-
ed the millennium of business will be
at hand, the era of universal peace
between capital and labor.-Lord Lev
erhulme.

THE RED CROSS
BY HENRY VAN DYKE.

Sign of the Love Divine
That bends to bear the load
OF all who suffer, all who bleed,
Along life's thorny road.
Sign of the Heart Humane,
That through the darkest fight
Would bring to wounded friend and
foe
A ministry of light.
Oh dear and holy sign,
Lead onward like a star!
The armies of the just are thine,
And all we have and are.

Statement by Speaker Champ Clark Of
Missouri:
"It goes without saying that there
must and will be another big Bond Is
sue. Having put our hands to the
pillow we must not look back. We can
not afford to. Because while the world
war is really over, it is not technically
ended until President Wilson issues
proclamation to that effect We still
have huge army overseas and while
it should be brought home as soon as
ships can bring our soldiers back, un-
til they get back, they must be fed and
clothed and otherwise cared for. It
would be an everlasting shame not to
do that So people should subscribe
for the impending loan and purchase
War Savings Stamps as readily and
literally as they subscribed for past
loans. It's for the support of our sol
diers and nothing is too good for
them"

Durnstein, in which Richard of Eng

Yes, Elite, it is sperfectly proper

rather late This, of course, is con-

RED CROSS To AID
STRICKEN WORLD
Pubic Is Asked to Enroll In
Work Made Necessary
byPeace.
TO CONTINUE To"sTAND BY"
Answer to Christmas Roll Call All
That Anybody Neds to Join Up
Now Is Heart and
Dollar.

The Christmas roll call OF the Amer
lean Red Cross has message to car
ry to all the people. And the re-
spouse to this message should be uni
versal it should come from every man,
that is needed in heart and dollar.
The war has left world filled with
ruin. Peace must restore, rebuild, re-
construct, recreate what war has de-
stroyed. More than that, for hundreds
of millions of human beings, rescued
from social slavery and political bond
age, there must be revealed new
ideals, efficient methods, sufficient or
ganization.
AS the army and navy were the will
of the nation modified for victory in
war, so is the Red Cross the soul of
the nation modified for service in
peace.
Even after the formal terms Of peace
are signed it will take months, even
years, for our present work to be COM
pleted. The sober task of withdrawal
cannot keep pace with the tense strain
Of the accomplishment when first we
rushed our mighty army across the
water to save the liberty Of the world.
We have two and quarter millions
of men overseas, flung there with I'M
dreamed of speed 1t will take three
times as long to bring them back. So
long as one regiment remains, the Red
Cross, as always. WILL STAND BY.
All over our land there are soldiers
homes In need Of information, Of coun-
sci, of sympathy and comfort. Until
the boys come home, until all these
families are reunited, the Red Cross.
as usual, WILL STAND BY.
On a hundred hard-fought fields
there are heroes graves to be identi-
fed, marked and honored-and here
at home are thousands of hearts to
be comforted by the knowledge OF
where their loved ones are sleeping.
So long as sorrow comes into these
homes. the Red Cross, as ever, WILL
STAND BY.
But now the world is calling us to
an even greater task.
Belgium, northern France, Serbia,
it's fight against the ever-present
scourge of tuberculosis.
VII. Above all, 1t must face the fact
that America is the one of all the
great nations of the earth that is prac-
tically untouched and unexhausted by
the ravages of war. That with the
end Of the fighting there remains the
vastest problem the world has ever
faced-that of carrying humanity
through the coming winter and spring
and bringing it up to the relief of the
harvests of 1919. There is not enough
food in the world now to provide for
normal consumption. With the best
that can be accomplished by way OF
organization and administration, there
will be widespread privation and suf-
fering.
The war has left behind it hideous
legacy of want, suffering and distress.
There is work to be done that calls
for millions Of consecrated hands and
hearts.
The Red Cross therefore calls you
to enlist for all this supreme service
to humanity Answer the Christmas
roll call.
All that is needed Is heart and
dollar

promptly established and spread of
the disease may be checked. -
Adults generally should be vac

CAN'T keep UP
DIVORCED WIFE
Bankruptcy and Remarriage Is
Reason Why f. L. Moran
Can't Pay AlimOny.

Bankruptcy and remarriage, de-
clares F. L. Moran, is the reason
why he can't pay his divorced wife
$25 a month. Mrs. Rose Moran was
granted a divorce from F. L. Moran
two years ago and the defendant
was then ordered to pay $25 a
month alimony and he agreed by
stipulation to pay $4,000 in a lump
sum.
But now Moran is again married.
He helps support his father-in-law
and mother-in-laW and he was De
clared bankrupt not long ago, he
says. He was called to the Moline
police court yesterday.
Through his attorneys, P. r. In
gelson of Moline and A. L. CheZam
of Davenport he gave the above
reasons for not paying his $25 dur
ing the last few months. Judge G.
o. Dietz took the case under ad-
visement
Roy Whiteside, attorney for Mrs.
Moran, contended that because the
bankruptcy proceedings may have
prevented his client from collect
ing the $4,000 is no reason why
she should fail to receive the ali
mony awarded by the court Fur
Their, he said, Mrs. Moran is not
responsible for the second mar

Monday evening and the PROPOSE
ton of higher wages will be taken
up then It is unlikely, however,
that any action will be taken until

it's way through so that things run

granted. Employees maintain that
the price OF living has not gone
down.
