On first thought it seems strange
that the United States should have
to pay for the damage she did to
France when she was helping to wage
war on French soil. But, after all,
the war was as much ours as it was
Frances, and paying for the trenches
we dug in another country is better
than having had them dug in our own.

SMALLEST OF THE sBIG FOUR

Some persons dislike accepting
Italy as one of the big Four; they
are 10th to think of her as being on
equal footing with the United States,
Great Britain and France; yet she
played a part in the war as great as
that played by any other of the AL
lied Powers.
Italy went into the war, as did the
United States, unprepared. The great
defeat which came to her in 1917 at
Caporetto was enough to dishearten
even the most courageous, but the
young soldiers of that country finally
succeeded in stopping the advance of
the enemy. The stopped the German
and Austrian forces in their rush up
on the line of the Piave, and there,
half a year later, they administered 4
great defeat to the army of Austria
Hungary. Again and at last it was
Italy who helped, in great part, to
force the enemy to sue for cessation
of hostilities.
Italy is not asking a favor of the
the great powers when she asks an
equal share in the Peace Conference
and in the League of Nations, She is
merely asking what she has earned.
If a little nation can and does play
a big part in such a war as the re-
cent one, then surely that nation
should be considered as big as the
mart she played.

MrLLIoNTH PARr OF INCH

One of Americas little-known war
romances is revealed by John II. Van
Deventer in his story OF precious
gauges which appears in Everybody's.
Virtually all of our munitions had to
be made to limit gauges which had to
be corrected by means of precision
blocks to within a rew millions of an
inch. Twenty years ago" writes
Mr.. Van Deventer, "a Swedish tool
maker named Johansson made up his
mind that the millonth of an inch was
the coming thing-hunted during nine
ye>-s for a practical way to get it.
and got it. How? Nobody knows ex-
cept Johansson, and he won't tell. For
over nine years he kept everybody
guessing. Our best shops imported his
blocks and used them for checking
their gauges.
Then came the war with its won
derful stimulation of American gem
ius. With ii came also the need of
being independent of the old world
in the matter of gauges.
The war took Il. c. Perry away
from his job of running a great fac
tory in Cleve ladntrshrdlu hrdluu
tory in Cleveland and brought him to
Washington to take charge of the linn
it's of gauging of ordnance products.
1t brought William L. Hoke, of St.
Louis, to the Bureau of Standards.
with an idea OF how to produce pre-
blocks, Colonel Peck and Major
Hoke got together and in six months
were turning out precision blocks ac-
curate to the millionth part of an
inch"

larly. may foreign aviators ny as they
please over this country. and. vice
versa, do British aviators enjoy a SIM
liar liberty and privilege?
Freedom of the air. says Tit Bits. is
question as vitality. important as
freedom of the seas. A nations rights
over the. sea are supposed to extend
three miles into the ocean from it's
coasts. and ownership of land to
whatever is beneath it for half the
distance through the earth.
Now the peace conference says that
each nation owns the air above it's
own territory. but that it can only
own it on condition that it allows free
passage through 1t for all other coun-
tries.
That means to say" said Mr..
Handley Page, that aerial alliances
will have to be entered into with all
foreign countries. and until they are
ratified we have no more right to
fly over other kingdoms than we have
to free use of their railways and
ports"
1t is an interesting fact that up to
the outbreak of the war our govern
ment always maintained that every
state should claim full and absolute
sovereignty in the air above it's ter
ritory. This principle was recognized
by virtually every country except
Germany.

Effort Under Way to Increase

The friends of the mothers pen
sion fund are making an effort to
have the appropriation increased
from 100000 to $75O,00O Those
prominent in the movement include
Senator William e. Crow and Rep
resentative John w. Vickerman.
They are familiar with the splendid
work this organization is doing
throughout the State and are ap-
preciative of the fact that the in
fiuenza epidemic of last fall has
greatly increased its field. If the
revenues viii permit it is the con-
sensus of opinion that the largest
appropriation possible should be
given to the work. The request was
for $1,O00.000, but the appropria-
tons committee reduced this to
The 1917 Legislature appropriated
$445,000. This, with the reappro-
priation of the funds set aside for
unorganized counties made 1t pos

ucns by fifty per cent. In Nav.
