The examples of Rose
roofing are city wide and to
mention them would be to
enumerate nearly every edi-
flee of importance in the
District. And not one of
these roofs but has stood the
test of time.
E m b o d ying all the
requisites for sound con-
struction work and made of
embarrassing materials
that have stood the severest
tests, Rose Roofs will resist
every weather condition
that may arise and will give
that all-round satisfactory
service that is so essential in
roofing.

TORE DOWN THE BARS

Organized labor has broken down the
bars and permitted the black laborers to
Craze in the green fields Of industry the
same as the white laborer and thus ends a
long drawn out battle between white and
sideratum for both black and white laborers.
will for while meet obstacles, but the
worst is behind him, while, on the other
hand, the white laborer will not lie in
mortal fear as he has in the past that, If
he strikes black laborer will take his
place, and summing it all up, it s the de-
sideratum Of both black and white laborers.
Until working men, irrespective of color, or
creed, stand as one man, just so long will
the working man get the worst of it. Now,
let the bars be broken down from Maine to
Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific,
not only in theory, but in actual practice
and may the black man be as welcome in
the local labor organizations of Seattle as
in Alabama and may fitness and not color
be the password for employment in every
place and shop in the United States where
organized labor exercises control IF these
tenements are lived up to by organized labor
then we truly hope the colored man will
prove as true to his trust in the cause of
organized labor as he has to his flag and
die by his guns.

WATCHING NORTH DAKOTA

AS little as is being said about it, the
thinking men and women Of this country
are keeping their eye on North Dakota from
political viewpoint. A great majority of
the citizens are good and tired of the
country being turned over bag and baggage
to the trust hogs and are planning halt
thereto. We hardly wish to venture the asser-
tion that they are in 'socialistc' state of
mind, but they are certainly in an antitrust
state Of mind. In spite of the fact that
labor is being paid higher wages than ever
before in the history Of the United States,
yet the laborer has less money than when
two dollars per day was the prevailing price
for days work, and this is so because the
price of household necessities have doubled
and in many instances trebled in prices.
When wages were two dollars per day beef
steak was ten cents per pound Now
wages are four and five dollars per day
and beefsteak is forty-fve cents per pound
and as in this so also with every other living
commodity. In the proportion that COM
modties have increased in prices, labor
should be twelve dollars per day All Of
this has caused unrest in the minds of the
working people and it would not surprise
us if a majority Of the western states do not
adopt the North Dakota plan of operating
their respective industries.

CABLE TO
JAPAN

Nothing would facilitate good
understanding between the United
States and Japan more surely than
the proposed Pacific cable, by way of
the Aleutian islands, or any other
way. Publicity is the enemy of mis-
chief-making rumors.
If Idahoan had to depend upon
tales of returning travellers from
Utah for news of every day happen
ings there would shortly arise
grudges and strained relations, per-
haps petty jealousies. Before tele-
graphy killed rumor and hearsay our
original colonies were often at outs
over boundaries and property in
terests.
When the rough and ready mount
aineers of Kentucky and Tennessee
came over the Appalachians to help
Carolina drive out Tarlton and his
tories, they did not linger after
victory to fraternize with their low
land neighbors. They were strang-
ers there, come to join forces against
a common enemy. Neither did the
lowlanders trust the backwoodsmen
any too far, but looked carefully to
their stock and grain until their
lighting friends were gone over the
hills.
Without communication there is
no confidence. The more quickly
news travels between them the better
do peoples get along.-F C. K.

WITH OR
WITHOUT?

1t is Just now. worrying statistics
men as to whether the use of drug
narcotics in America grows faster
along with the use Of liquor or in
dry territories. Sure it is that the
drug habit is fastening itself on ma
tive Americans. According to an
article in the Literary Digest of
April 26, "The number Of victims of
the drug habit in the United States
is placed as high as 100000"
Statistics on users Of drugs are
much more difficult Of harvesting
than those on boozers, which have
been 30 multiplied in various forms.
II 1t Is going to take 5000 secret SER
vice men to enforce national prohibi-
ton, how many men will it take to
curtail the secret use of drugs?
Americans are headlong; they
have less self-control than foreign
ers in this country; they speed up to
such point Of strain that they
automatically turn to some form of
relief when they have gone so far.
Their faults are born of their vir-
tues. They used liquor to such an
extent that it has to be kept away
from them. If they turn now to
drugs that will create a harder knot
to unite.

NAVY BANDS WILL
SPUR PATRIOTISM
in VICTORY DRIVE
Mare Island Commandant Of
fers Marines and Jackies
to Aid Fifth Loan

Captain Edward L. Beach, comman-
dant of Mare Island Navy Yard, Mare
Island, Cal, who was in command Of
the United States dreadnaught New
York in the North Sea at the time the
German navy was turned over under
the terms of the armistice, has offered
three of the crack service bands sta
toned at Mare Island for use during
the Victory drive.
One OF the bands will travel on the
trophy train which will tour all of the
seven states in the Twelfth District
and the other two bands will be used
in cities within a days journey of
Mare Island. One of these bands is
the famous sixty-piece Marine Band
and the other is the forty-pi zee Jackie
Band.
Paymaster Ralph Phelps, U. s. N,
has been placed in charge of the itin-
erary to be mapped out for the two
bands which will not travai on the
train and any local committee desir-
ing to make use of either of these two
bands during the drive should COM
municate with him.

HAND 1T TO
FRENCH

The French people want a world
league to preserve the peace as much
as any other nation, and if they have
made objections to some phases of
the new constitution it is because
they have learned in the bitter school
of experience to look out for A No. l.
1t is everlastingly to the credit of
France that she is not asking for
much more than the peace arrange
ment will bestow. Once she has been
crushed under the German heel and
made to suffer the anguish of the
beaten, besides paying a tremendous
indemnity. The results of the war of
1871 are. but just healed over, and
now she has again been attacked on
her own soil and ravaged and de-
spoiled. The foe is this time under
foot, malignant and unrepentant
foe. What but high spirit of hui
manity could induce the French peo-
pie to desist from spoils? England
and America are partners to the
settlement, but France might have
bucked against the equable decisions
of the council, as Italy did, and that
would have caused great deal more
OF fussing and long-drawn argument
over the peace table. 1t might even
have thwarted the forming of a
world league. France deserves
credit. France has the renewed and
lasting friendship Of the American
people.-F. c. X.

MEXICO IN
WRONG

Because of the refusal of England
and France to recognize the Mexican
representative PAM, who was there
for not invited to attend the peace
conference, Carranza is very mad
He recalled PAM from France and
told him to await orders in Spain.
The Carranza government does not
wish to recognize the Monroe doc
trine, the incorporation of which in
the world covenant without Mexico's
advice one way or the other was his
ostensible reason for withdrawing
his agent
So, Carranza's government is in
wrong with the world, and not be-
cause of its opposition to our Mon
roe dictrine, but because foreign in
vestors in Mexico have had such a
rough time.
II the United States should be
placed in guardianship of Mexican
affairs after a league of nations is
formed and going, there will very
likely be some more (blank) to pay

ASKS SUPPORT
OF FIFTH
Urges American People to
Finish the Job by Taking
the Victory Loan

Four members of the American peace
mission in France, Secretary of State
Robert Lansing, COL. E. M. House,
General Tasker N. Bliss and Henry
White, have sent this message to the
American people urging support of the
Victory Loan:
ITO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE:
I'VE have had the opportunity here
in France to see and realize the mag
nitude of the accomplishment of our
country in this war and the magnificent
spirit with which this great task has
been carried through to a triumphant
issue.
What has been done and what re-
mains to be done before normal con-
ditions are restored demand your con-
tinued and united support with the
same spirit of self sacrifice and of de-
termination as that which was mani
tested by the nation while the German
armies faced our men at the Marine,
and in the Champagne, at st. Mihiel
and in the Argonne. We must not re-
lax our efforts until every soldier of
the republic is landed on the soil of
America.
ITO finish this mighty task imposes
upon the government of the United
States a great financial burden. The
Victory Liberty Loan must thrive. II
it should fail it would indicate that the
Nation is willing to leave its task un-
completed.
ITO secure the ideals for which
Americans fought and died this great
demand on national patriotism and
united effort should meet a generous
and universal response. Let us do our
duty to the end.

OUR SOUL WILL PAY

There was very little to find fault
with in the spirit which the American
people showed when the war was
brought home to them daily by deeds
o. heroism sent back from the fields
of France. In those days, beneath the
selfishness of commercialism, was
laid bare the soul of our people. 1t
was the same true, untarnished soul
which built the country through near
ly century and half of struggles
which tested every fiber of our being
as a nation.
1t is this spirit and soul of our ma
ton which makes possible the
achievement by the American people
Of any task which they set themselves
to do from the bottom of their heart.
Our nation never went into anything
with more determined will than
it did to defeat the abominable
militarism which had been the lone
star of the German people. The Amer
lean people won that battle.
The government is now making an
appeal to the same spirit which won
that victory. The only work that re-
mains to be done to make sure of an
oversubscription to the fifth loan is to
bring home to the American spirit
which won the war the realization
that there is another great task which
1t is right to be done. That is paying
the bill of the war The American
people know the bill is just and will
pay 1t.

''Nation's Next Great
Duty" Should be put
to One Side
ASK FOR SUPPORT

WASHINGTON D. c., April IA
Chairman Will H. Hays OF the Re-
publican National committee, today
issued call to all Republicans urg-
ing their united and effective support
of the Victory loan. While the call
is publicly issued to all Republicans,
it was also sent directly and Ter
sonally to all Republican national
committeeman, state shairmen, all
state organization workers, all
county chairmen and all precinct.
committeeman and to all Republican
news, asking them to suspend all
political activities until the success
of the loan had been assured.
The text Of the appeal reads:
To the Republicans of the Nation:
Again the call for the charge has
sounded.
This is not for the fighting mem
at the fighting front. For them the
war Is over. Their part is accom-
plished to their own everlasting
honor and the glory Of the nation,
be theirs.
But to the rest the real test has
come.
To those whose privilege it has
been to form the second line, and to-
whose credit it is recorded that they,
too, attained every objective; to
those from every class, creed and
political faith, who acted in that
unselfish cooperation which brought
to the fighting men the support that
made SO much for the complete
vindication of our institutions; to-
the men and women of America, who
do not fail, has this call come.
Let us show to these fighting men
have been obeyed here. Let us send
to the fighting men still abroad the
message of no weakening. Let us
show to the world that our patriot
ism is not that born only of extrem-
tiles and stirred only by martial
music, but the devotion which meets
a duty in the firm determination OF
consecrated service, and performs it.
And let us demonstrate to ourselves
that we are worthy of the name
American and the privileges of our
citizenship.
Our first duty as Republicans to-
day is that duty which we have
never failed and never will fail to
anticipate and discharge-our duty
as Americans. Just as during the
recent war we determined our every
act by how we could do most for
effective action, so now we will
our every step by how we
can contribute most to the Nations
welfare.
To that end we will abandon all
other activities to aid in the Victory
loan until its success has been &C
complished.
For this purpose let the Republic
can press and every member of the
Republican organization enlist in
the Victory loan drive. The national,
state, county, city and precinct or
ganization of loyal working Republi-
cans will enroll to a man in this
service.
This is the nations next great
duty. 1t is our privilege to exhaust
the possibilities in our same splendid
support, with the knowledge that
those who may oppose us in political
strife are joining fully with us in
this effort.

on the subject and also the draft
Of a statute which seems fully to
meet the needs Of the situation.
We quote below the substance
Of some Of the many important
statements contained in the Attor-

At the present time there are

overthrow by violent and unlaw-
full means.
The radicals are. through these
many publications and by various
other Well-organized means. en-
deaVOrlng to convert the negroes
Of the country to their views. anC
