Been Mentioned.

New York. May 4.-Stirred by the
statement of the alien property custO-
dian that Germany is preparing again
to grasp American business IN the
same stranglehold that ne has just
broken, leaders in every Enc of indus-
try here are today planning to solidly
support the campaign to defeat COM
mercial conquest by the willy Huns
that has been begun with this official
warning. To keep alive against the
deadly drive of cut throat competition
from Berlin those chemical dye and
other infant Industries that patriotic
Americans set up throughout this
country to support Uncle Sans war
work, stout backing must come from
every business man in this country
for fighting general invasion into
every field. New Workers are now as
sured Unless the United States man
ages to hold its own IN chemical re-
search, for which the chemical found
alton has been founded by Francis P.
Caravan and other experienced Off
Gals, it is predicted that. before many
decades are over, Germany will CON
quer our country industrially, as
she hoped to do by force of arms.
Presidential Plots.
With Wilson just mentioned as q
presidential possibility in 1920 and a
dozen hats being SHE'D into the ring
from other quarters. much more
planning to place the heads of the
prospective national tickets is now
being done here than ever before.
From the busy grooms in the presi-
dental stables of Wall street, loud
cries for their candidates, from Da-
vison down, are beginning to be heard,
- al ~ ,ryft a1s..
noisily swarming about scores of re-
ceptive heads in all parties. Veteran
politicians of this city. however, de
clare that the silly season is still open
for national politics, and that most
eager entries in this race year ahead
of time are scratched before the real
start.
... Popoular Project.
To extend their great work, in town
as well as behind trenches, the leaders
of the salvation Army are already
preparing to tell their tory in advance
of the drive that they will make soon
for millions of dollars to back up
their home service. Though their
publicity men are the best in the bust
ness, their expert efforts are bound to
be outdone by the half million dough-
boys, who constituted themselves ad-
vance agents of this drive from the
moment they got home from France.
For every column of space that a
generous and sympathetic press will
give the salvation Army. column after
column of khaki-clad fighters will
plunge at the public and tell the story
of what the S. A. lads and lassies did
for them overseas, If the public
everywhere does not give this popular
peace army all they want to go on
with their work. every returned man
from service will have fallen down on
this job for which he gladly Volun-
teered.
Sicze Soldiers.
Ready to absorb the entire old
"69th" just as soon as its men are
turned loose from service, the en-
ployers of this town are today pre-
pared to sieze every mothers son, at
good work and wages. Beside being
known and loved in this town. the
boys of this famous regiment are now
considered by everyone as men who
can get what they are after, as their
unusual record proves. Whatever diff
ficulties the soldier of other COM
mands may have in getting placed
after rehabilitation, the "69th's" men
are considered as good as already
employed before they take off their
uniforms.
Like most newspaper parties, the
feast to the overseas writers here last
week was quite the brightest wettest
and liyeliost dinner of the season.
Just as Enthusiastically, however. a
great many of the men who should
have been at this dinner were work
ing overseas and couldn't be at the
table.
