General Glenn asserted that in his

with the various activities conducted
by the Y. M. c. A. referring especially
to the hotels conducted in France as
being "a very important factor in

In referring to the city of Brest
the general declared that the hotel
there managed by the Y. M. c. A. was
the only bright spot in the city. The
Y. NJ. C. A. managed hostelries, he
said, were great necessities, as they

Editorial Comment
An Ugly Doctrine.
(Fort Wayne News)

II OH wayne ANeWS)
Timothy Shea, of the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Engine
men, openly declares that if con-
greSS passes anti-strike legislation
the members of his organization will
disobey the law. They will not pro-
test against it or seek it's repeal
they will ignore it and break it
That's rather a strong declaration
Every law that is enacted operates
to the disadvantage of somebody and
if people generally took it into their
heads to obey only laws they cared
to obey, we might as well have no
laws at all. Indeed we would have
state of anarchy and nothing short
Of it.
Mr.. Shea and his associates have
the right to object to any law that is
passed and to contest its legality or
seek it's repeal. But when they de-
family declare that they propose to
disobey law in case of it's enact
ment, they are giving utterance TO "A
sentiment that is most malignly

Armisties Day.

If all the peoples affected by the
signing of the Armistice shall observe
the anniversary today in the spirit Of
the hope of the people themselves
there would be such a communion as
was never before attained. This is
too mach TO expect so soon il ever.
but those who were so fortunate as
TO be present at the mass meeting in
this city Sunday evening, who ex-
perienced the aspirations there ex-
emplified, will. we feel sure. enter
tain the hope.
A year ago the swapping Of the
terrible strain left the nerves al
most in a condition Of hysteria.
Twelve months have gone since then,
but the fever persists. At times it
seems as though the evil spirits
massed behind Hunnish hordes had
sneaked through the lines and dis
seminAted to the uttermost parts of
the earth, their malignancy undated,
their appeal TO greed and faithless-
ness seeking expression in every
walk Of life. But our boys who were
spared have come home. There is a
dignity also certain humility about
them. They have looked into the
pit; they have experienced the men,
tai attitude Of one called on to make
the supreme sacrifice who has risen
to meet the call. They are not in
dulsing in much oratory these days,
but there is every evidence they are
MISUNDERSTANDING straight: that
they have the vision that sees the
truth. We need them, we need their
vision.
Armistice day is not alone a joyous
occasion, it is also a solemn one. Let
us not overlook any of its signif-
canoe. We wish the feature to be
observed throughout the British en-
pire today, we refer to the ceasing for
two minutes in the middle of the day
Of all form Of activity, might have
occurred to US too. but the spirit of
American traditions will not be found
lacking,

particular the laws Of the country
and never to tolerate their violation
by others. AS the patriots of seventy
six did to the support of the Declare
tion of independence. so to the sup
port of the constitution and laws let
every American pledge his life. his
property. and his sacred honor-let
every man remember that to violate
the law is to trample on the blood of
his father, and to tear the charter OF
his own and his children's liberty
Let reverence for the laws be
breathed by every American mother
to the lisping babe that prattles on
her lap: let it be taught in schools,
in <eminaries, and in colleges; let it
be written in primers, spelling
books. and in almanacs; let it be
preached from the pulpit, proclaimed
in legislative halls, and enforced in
courts of justice. And, in short. let
it become the political religion of the
nation. and let the old and the young,
the rich and the poor. the grave and
the gay If all sexes and tongues and
colors and conditions. sacrifice I'M
ceasingly upon it's affairs. While
ever a state of feeling such as this
shall universally or even very gen.
c.ai!y prevail throughout the nation.
vain will be every effort, and fruit
less every attempt to subvert our
national freedom
1t is we'll for every American to
take those words to heart and to
ponder them we'll, for after he has
done so we believe that there will be
no hesitancy on the part Of good citi-
zens to abide by the patriotic advice
of AbrG ham Lincoln rather than to
accept the dangerous doctrines of
Shea. The one is right, the
other Is wrong; the one is American.
the other is un-American: the one is
patriotic. the other is reasonable.
That is the difference between them
and it is a difference that it is the
world apart.

coed to its logical conclusion, i. e., a

Judge Anderson, in granting the
Injunction ordering the recall of the
coal strike order. said:
This case involves solely the Ques-
ton Of enforcing the law. It is my
absolute duty to uphold the law.
which no one man and no body OF
men has the right to override. Were
we to admit to even the slightest de-
gree a contrary right. We would un.
dermine the foundation of the Re-
public.
THE Government Is right in seek
ing to uphold its own laws and in
asking it's courts to aid it. These
men have done an illegal act from
which irreparable injury results to
the complainant
This, tho executive council of the
A. F. of L. would have us believe
80 autocratic as t0 stagger the hui
man mind" an injustice not only
to workers but to all liberty loving
Americans" and claim that they
have done everything in their power
to avert this strike.
Where did these men get such a
conception Of the intelligence of
common folks?
Such a display Of arrogance is as
founding. The A. F. Of L. superior
to the United States Government.
that's the gist Of it.
We don't believe it; We don't be-
lieve you believe it. Make no mis-
take. If the purposes Of the execu-
tive council Of the A. r. Of L. pre-
vail. government of the people, by
the people and for the people" will
perish in this land Of ours.
When Germany piled arrogance on
arrogance on the cringing shoulders
of Uncle Sam, she did so in the con-
fidence that we wouldn't fight,
couldn't fight if we wanted to.
Nothing was done to dispel this delu-
sion: much to confirm it. o. yes, so
long as we were making money. so
long as politicians wrangled. why
Uncle sam was a big. laundering
old blatherskite.
Was he?
When organized labor permitted
tevolutionaries to take charge Of its
affairs. to make preposterous de-
mands in its name, to openly defy
the law and the courts it appears to
have been induced to this by de-
fusion similar to that which misled
tile Germans. And there was much
to confirm it. Looking back We
wonder had this government shown
the determination 1t now exhibits
would we have been led along this
way which leads to war? But We are
arriving and it is squarely up to
those who would defend law and
order as exemplified in this. our
government, to stand together under
such leaders as the fortunes Of the
hour have given to us.
