HUN PERFIDY

The sinking of German dread
naughts, battleships. destroyers, etc.,
after the same he'd bapn delivered
UP to the allies. accor me to the
terms Of the arnlistice. has brought
forth cry of disgust. according
to the principle adopted at the be-
ginning of the late war, German
men-of-war. like Napoleon's Old
Guard, were never to surrender.
1t will De remembered that in some
cases when submarines were cap
tured it was ascertained that the
officers and crews had resolved to
coMcnit suicide rather than De AIKEN.
In several instances they did shoot
themselves. preferring to die by
their own hands than to fall into
the hands of the allies.
Shortly after the war was prec:p-
itated, it will be remembered, a
British squadron encountered Hun
squadron in the South Pacific Ocean.
The German ships were soon placed
in a helpless and hopeless condition.
but when called upon to surrender
they hoisted defiant signal and
the ships ard their crews were sent
to the bottom by the British yes
sells.
Their latest act of defiance was
committed when they sank the Ger
man ships which they SURRENDERED
in The fall. They have shown them
selves to be disciples Of Captain Kid,
and are capable of Scutling ships as
well. as cutting throats.-

THE GERMANS Will SIGN

Few ohservant people have enter
tanned any doubt that the Germans
would sign the peace treaty since
the armistice last November. The
signing of the drastic terms of the
armistice proved conclusively that
while, the Huns would kick at GER
tain provisions of the treaty, they
would sign eventually. This they
have concluded to do.
After receiving a vote of conf
dence the new German Cabinet will
ask that the Allies waive their de-
mands for the surrender of the for
mer German Emperor and for Ger
many to acknowledge responsibility
for the war but, no matter what
their reply, the Peace Treaty will
be signed, according to advices from
Weimar to the American peace dele
cation in Paris.
The Paris newspapers comment
ing on the resignation of the Schc,
idemann Ministry are unanimous in
believing that unless something un-
foreseen happens Germany will sign
the treaty.
In circles close to the Peace Con-
ference it is declared that under no
pretext CT holding plebiscite or
of ministerial crisis would the AL
lies give Germany further time in
which to make known her decision.
As a contemporary says, the Ger
mans are beaten now by their own
acknowledgment. whatever that may
be worth. The defeat will be ground
into them as the peace terms begin
to operate. They rely upon the GU
pidity Of the allies to bring about
quick. resumption of commercial re-
latins. Thousands of these deadly
enemies actually plan to come to the
United States Immediately to escape
the taxes that will be imposed in
Germany to pay war indemnities.
Will Congress leave the gates open
-
to these enemies, who are more dam
rerous than anarchists? The Ger
mans are coming here to make mo-
ney and escape the punishment fol-
their crimes. Keep them OUT"

1 MENACE OF MLITERACY

We had supposed that we were
literate people. In the army camps
in which the tests of illiteracy were
given-and these tests consisted m
simply getting ideas from a. news
paper and writing a letter home
one man out of fi7e was found to be
iliterate.
George Drayton Slayer, in Les
lies, says 4those facts astonlshed
most of US. The army tests would
seem to Indicate probably from flf-
teen to twenty million people in the
United States who are unable tc
read and write. 1t is to this group
that the appeal of the anarchist or
Bolshevist is being continually made.
Men who cannot read are inf1uenced
by the damagogue who would de-
stroy our democratic institutions.
They are a menace which can only
be removed through program OF
education.
There are in the United States
more than thirteen million people OF
foreign birth. Some of these are
good American citizens, but a great
majority of them have as yet little
or no appreciation of American in
st:tutions or ideals. We have, for
the most part, educated their child
reu. while we have segregated and
exploited the older brothers and sis
tiers and fathers and mothers. We
have often succeeded in AmericaniZ-
ing the children to the point where
Ahey have nothing but contempt Tor
their fathers and mothers. Many OF
these people came to America hop
ing to enter into our social life. and
to work with US in the development
of our democratic society. If cduca-
ton is provided for them they may
contribute largely to the develop
ment of our life. If we fail to
Americanize them they may actually
prove to be the group who, because
they do not understand our govern
mcnt or our institutions. will follow
the lead of those selfish and short,
siahtcd individuals who seek to gain
their own temporary advantage
through an attack upon society as at
present constituted. We need q
very much more significant program.
of education as a basis for naturali-
zsticn. and we need. as well, the re-
quirement that those who do not
wish to become Americans shall not
continue to enjoy the opportunities
provided in our land.p

During the war Belgium needed
charity and received it. Now all Bel

course, private charity will always be
needed in Belgium as in other coun-
tries, but the time has passed when
Belgium as a country asks for charity
What Belgium needs most are the
three essentials mentioned by Presl-
dent Wilson, namely raw materials,
machinery and financial cooperation.
IF the practical assistance outlined

STOMACH TROUBLES
ARE DUE TO ACIDITY
Tells Safe, Certain, Speedy Re-
lief For Acid Indigestion

So-called stomach troubles, such
as indigestion, gas. sourness, stom-
ach-ache and inability to retain food
are in probably nine cases out of ten,
simply evidence that excessive Sc
cretion of acid is taking place in the
stomach, causing the formation of gas
and acid indigestion.
Gas distends the stomach and causes
that full, oppressive, burning feel-
ing sometimes known as heartburn.
while the acid irritates and inflames
the delicate lining of the stomach.
The trouble lies entirely in the ex-
cess development or secretion of acid.
TO stop or prevent this souring OF
the food contents of the stomach and
to neutralize the acid, and make 1T
bland and harmless. teaSpoonful OF
bisurated magnesia, good and enec-
tive corrector of acid stomach, should
be taken in a quarter of glass or
hot or cold water after eating or
whenever gas, sourness or acidity IS
felt. This sweetens the stomach and
neutralizes the acidity in a few mo-
ments and Is a perfectly harmless and
inexpensive remedy to use.
An antiacid, such as bisurated mag
nesia which can be obtained from any
druggist in either powder or tablet
form enables the stomach to do its
work properly without the aid of ar
tificial digestents. Magnesia comes
in several forms. so be certain to ask
for and take only Bisurated Mag
nesia, which is especially prepared for
the above purpose. G. A. Gorgas.
