 Planes MObiliZed
 at Chihuahua City

Washington, Dec. 5.-Mexico has "A war type airplanes mobilized at Chihuahua City alone, and is obtain ing additional planes from Germany, according to war department infor- nation given to the house military committee today by Brigadier Gen. eral Mitchell, chief of operation of the army air service She depart ment also has information, Gener- al Mitchell said, that former pilots in the German army are arriving in Mexico for service in the army air forces there.
 The United States, Geneal Mitch ell said, has produced practically nc aerial war equipment since the ar mistice and consequently is not capable of meeting any first class power in the air today as foreign countries have continued develop ment of wartime air equipment.
 Altho the army owns 100 foreign built pursuit planes, these could not be used for combatant work, he said, adding that they would be of value only for training duty as they were out of date.

HELP THE TUBERCULOSIS FIGHT

With one in every nine of the peo- pie who die giving up the fight be- cause of lung trouble there shouldn't be any debate about whether we should help the' tuberculosis fund That more of us haven't helped is due probably to thoughtlessness. We do not think often enough of how the half of us that is i'll, gets by. But then, we don't think often enough about the other fellow, anyway The campaign for funds for the tuberculo- sis fight now has been arranged so that even the thoughtless will be reminded constantly of it. We can give a little at time What we are called on to give is practically noth- ing. Yet in the end it mounts mp and it relieves the dying days of many victims, and what is better, prevents many from dying.

Kipling Requests Public to Revere
 Places of Dead

London, Dec. 5.-Rudyard Kipling. on behalf of the imperial war graves commission, has written an earnest appeal to those visiting or intending to visit the French and Flanders fronts to observe reverence for the dead. In part he writes:
 "1t should be remembered this is holy ground-consecrated in every part by the lives of men, and for that reason not to be run over with levity It is inevitable that the handling of such multitudes of sightseers as are expected next year must be managed along ordinary tourists lines, so it rests with the individual tourist to have, to walk thru this holy land and observe reverence"

CZech-SlOvaks to
 Mobilize Forces

Copenhagen, Dec. 5.-The Czecho- Slovakian government has ordered the mobilization of three military classes, says a dispatch from Vien- na to the National Tidende here. A Prague dispatch says that 21 di- visions of Czecho- -Slovaks are ad- vancing toward the Hungarian from tier.
 Czecho- -Slovakia apparently has been exercised by the reported mon archical developments in Hungary following the evacuation of Budapest by the Rumanians and the aggres- siveness reported displayed recently by Hungarian frontier forces. Recent advices from Prague announced an attack by a Hungarian frontier de- tachment on Czecho-Slovak troops. The HGngarians were ultimately driven back across the border, it was stated.

WILL WE USE COMMON SENSE.

The industrial situation calls for hard, straight thinking. If we do our thinking hard and straight we shall come through all right. If we fail to think, we shall get bumped.
 Nature offers us these alterna- tives. She says to us all: "You have got brains. Use them. They will guide you to sensible conclusions. If you won't use them I will have to beat some sense into you with a club. You won't like that. You will be all bruised up and sore. But it's the only way to deal with people who refuse to use their heads"
 It is perfectly clear, if you think about it, that the process of forcing up wages and prices can't keep up in definitely. Unless production is in creased further advances in wages merely mean higher cost of living. The dog can't catch his tail because it is attached to him and it revolve: just as fast as he does. The cost of living is attached to wages, and wages can't overtake it unless pro- duction is increased.
 The Hungarian soviet government tried to make everybody happy by decreeing minimum income of $3,- 800 a year. The decree did no good. The cost of living simply shot up un- til $3,5O0 would buy no more than $500 formerly had bought.
 The only way in the world for liv- ing conditions in this country to be made better is for us to settle our differences peacefully by arbitration and get to work producing. If we produce more coal, more clothing, more furniture, more houses, there will be more for each person.
 Suppose by some piece of magic we could wave wand and double the amount of all useful goods. Obvious ly we would all be about twice as we'll off as we are today. We can't wave magic wand. But we can do something to bring. the same result by increasing our production through work.
 What is the alternative? We'll, ii we keep on making impossible de- mands trying to force our will or the community, obstructing business stopping production. Nature will get after us with club. Industries will be cut off from supplies and will be forced to close. Men will be thrown out of work. Instead of the present situation of more jobs thar men there will be more men thar jobs. If the thing keeps on there vii be hard times and a general starting over again.
 Nobody who recalls the depressio' and low wages of 1898 wants to SC, those conditions recur. They need no recur if we keep our heads and us, our brains. But unless We get :; large dose of common sense they vii recur just as sure as shooting. Kan sas City Star.
