1t is from the perdition on earth
that the Germans carried into Rus

tirely compatible with health, and that
irregular sex intercourse with prosf
tutes is the most prolific cause of w.
nereal disease. The denizens of the
underworld were driven out OF tie
zones around each camp and naval
station: all the men in camp were
given extensive instruction; those ex
posed and infected were given prompt
treatment; and the seven cooperating
agencies furnished interesting, whole
soma recreation. This program
brought results. The venereal rate
was lowered below that of any army
of any nation in the history of the
world.
The examinations of drafted men
showed that five men came into t.ls
army with venereal diseases for evecy
one who contracted it after he was In
the army. And the one who contract
ed it in the army, probably, was II
fected in a civil community outside Of
military control. Venereal disease IS,
therefore, not a military problem Oh
war epidemic; it is a civilian problem
and 4 peace problem, taken over by
military authorities for the period OF
the war ONLY, where civil communal.
ties had failed in their duty. The draft
and physical examinations of III N
merely resulted in digging underneath
the sod of our civil life, and Showing
that out of sight in every mans town

the microscope; diseases which we CIR
locate in an individual; diseases viii
are transmitted in the course of buss
ness which has no possible constrro

Now the returning soldiers, VINO

How many generations will it be
before the hand Of civilization will
again be extended to the German
A good many possibly.
Germany will pay in ostracism,
in hatred, and in distrust and she
will pay in other ways as well as il
financial sense. But the Germans
have only Germany to blame.
1t is not going to be easy for US
to forget that she broke through al
the conventions of civilized warfare
That her soldiers were turned loost
to do their worst wherever they in
vaded a country. That they RAJ
amuck at Louvain, that they plum
dered in Liege, that they devastated
all France, that they destroyed
churches, that they plundered like
savages.
And no man has ever heard o
read in the orders of the old German
army of single one ef tdese loot
ers and murderers being punished
for their crimes. We want to recall
all these things. Just recall then

GERMANY The LEPER OF
HUMAN FAMILY
STANDS BY.
1t is Too Early to Forget What
The Hun Did or Might Have
Done, and Our Duty Is Not
Ended

Do you remember in the book
Ben Hur" how the people shrank
away from the lepers crying I'm.
clean Unclean y
That same cry rings in the Bible,
in the history of the Old East. The
LEI er must cry out "Unclean u
when he moved along the highways.
Germany, the proud and brutal
Germany OF year ago finds herself
now in something of the leper's sta
tus. The Hun orgy of blood and
rapine, of fire and sword has ended
Germany sowed the wind and she
is reaping the whirlwind. 1t may
be years before any German is per-
mitted to forget that.
When the first squadron OF whip
ped sea-sharks, the submarines OF
Germany came into an English port,
after the armistice was signed,
curious thing happened. After all
the formalities had been completed
one of the German officers offered
to shake hands with an English
captain. The Englishman stepped
backward and turned his back on
the Hun. He couldn't take the
hand of baby-killer, a sea-assasin
Decent men don't fight the way the
Hun fought.

STOCK EXCHANGE
TRANSACTIONS ARE
ON SMALL SCALE
Oils, Motors and DistiIIing
Shares Are Active and Score
Advances; Other Issues
Show Considerable Gains,

New York, March 27.-The most
significant feature of the day on the
stock exchange, aside from the prom
inence of a few specialties, was the
steady diminution of dealings, tho
total being the smallest of any full
session in several weeks.
Oils, motors and distilling shares
led the stronger issues at gross gains
of two to five points. shipping, tobac-
CO, leather and paper shares register
ed extreme advances of one to three
points
The strength of metals would have
occasioned surprise, IN view of the
reduced dividend on Inspiration Cop
per, but for the fact that in the metal
trade an extension of the recent in
quiry for the refined product was re-
ported.
Easier rates for call money stimu-
lated renewed activity by pools in re-
cent speculative favorites, such as
Mexican Petroleum, Texas Company
General Motors. Industrial Alcohol,
Sinclair Oil and American Sugar.
Rails were again a source of disapg
pointment Sales amounted to $780,
900 shares
Trading in bonds embraced more
than the usual number of issues, but
the undertone continued irregular
Liberty Bonds alone displaying firm
ness. Several of the railway convert
ible issues weakened. Total sales, par

Girls Docked for
Christmas Dan

Dear MisH Grey: am Just plair
Anna Jones'. one OF tho large army
Of working girls In this city. am
employed By n large concern: ths
majority Of us arr paid sis.so per
week. We were locked" Christmas
and New Years day. Out OF ms
salary I pay all my living expenses
which means rent. food and cloth
ing.
Perhaps you can imagine just how
one must scheme TO set along undcr
the present conditions. high cost OF
living. etc. Don't You think we al
least should be allowed TO celebrate
christa birthday In peace. and moi
be- forced by a wealthy oono.rn q
sacrifice our days pay
You have such wholesome WAY
Of solving problems that presumed
you would s;rairh;rn out this tAnKls
for mo thru your columns.
ANNA.
wish II were poaaibi. for
me 20 straighten out this prob
lem you have presented. but
anything I might say or write
would not have tho necessary
Influence. However. every little
bit helps. Every person who
expresses HIS or her thoughts
against such conditions. helps
just that much Ia have them
Battered. I think u IL saere-
hgious for an employer to dock
his employees for Christmas day.
