SIDE LIGHTS
ON THE FIRE
(By M. c. Thomas)

ed something as per usual but th,n
things like this are to be more or less
expected when one has been missing
trains, meals, etc, for so long a time
But to get away from our partic-
| ular troubles, it was some fire. In
tact it was just little too much fire
as the windows of the business houses
across the street plainly show. Plate
glass cracked, paint scorched and ev-
en- the talking machines mutely (for
wonder) tell the casual observer
that the vicinity of the fire was very
good place to be away from.
At eight O'Clock when our corres-
pondent arrived on the scene most OF
the scenery looked as il small sec

OF France had been moved into our
midst Walls that looked to be wobb-
ly and were, reared their heads out of
the mass of debris, little spirals of
smoke curled upward and here and
there little groups of men congregat-
ed and looked as if they were talking
over just what HAD happened any
way.
One of the first things we noticed
made us glad that we were not a tel
ephonc man. Talk about things be-
ing messed up. Wires were wandering
all over the landscape, yes, and under
it. Big cables with their insulation
strangely missing looked like a veri-
table rats nest, but the telephone peo-
pie were on the job before the ruins
were cold
The electric light people were gum
med up a little also, but they were
fortunate in having a little more time
than the telephone company to repair
their damages. Both companies are
now laboring under big sign "Bus-
mess as Usual"

HARvEY's WAR AIM SPEECH

Editors are having much excitement
writing about Ambassador Harvey's
speech in London. Harvey told the
London crowd that we didn't 60 to
war to destroy autocracy and make
the world safe for democracy. We
went in, he said, to protect American
interests, chiefly trade with the alned
side.
The editors all call it . blunt speech

contentions. Il was probably most
welcome because the alleged Official
aims, used, as Cspper's Weekly says,
to fire the imagination, have become
most. troublesome to reactionary poll.
ticians. Great masses Of our people
really believed what Harvey now tells
- was mere war-selling talk and
should now be forgotten. /.
In England the great selling point,
"We're going to make this war the
last" has also proved troublesome
since. It ID hard to explain to people
who believed this why wars have been
going on ever since and why II out Of
12 European nations are spending
more for war today than they did be
fore the World war.
II any one but . prominent politi.
clan had said what Harvey said in
London he would have been denounced

itors now declare that what he SAID

against the farmers.
LOTS OF MONEY
The federal government asked for .

big bankers rushed up with more than
$500, 000, 900. Our diplomats are now
wrangling with those of Great Britain
and Japan as to how big share of
the new Chinese loan our bankers can
take. The Morgan syndicate is now
selling $1O0,000,00O Of French bonds
here.
And yet when Minnesota farmers
go to the local banks to borrow little
money on good security to pay taxes,
they are told that money is too tight.

WAR DEBT OF WORLD

An expert has figured out that the
financial burden which the world has
taken on since 1914 is $50 billions of
dollars. No one can imagine such
sum. Perhaps some idea of it can be
obtained when we state that it would
buy every bit Of property in the whole
United States and Canada.
And to whom does the world which
fought the war owe this great sum?
Not to some other world; not to
nations not in the war, but to indi-
viduals within the nations themselves.
To carry on war the soldiers went to
the front and they, with the rest of
the people, paid this enormous price
to certain Of their own citizens who
had property indispensable for war
purposes. They asked this price be-
fore they would let their governments
use it.
Labor throughout the world went
into the war with it's bare hands and
came out with its condition worse than
before. Farmers are in the same
boat. Only few of US came out with
more. And this $50 billions the
wealth Of North Americas roughly
a measure Of the extent to which the
few did not sacrifice for the war to
their full ability like the rest of us.
NEWBERRY INQUIRY STARTS
A senate committee began its in
quiry into the election methods of
Senator Newberry on June and the
first session was q stormy one.
John s. Newberry, brother of the
senator, testified that because of
Glove and affection and loyalty" he
had opened his bank account through
an agent for unlimited and unsuper-
vised campaign expenditures, concern
ing the amount of which he had never
inquired.
Henry Joy, Detroit capitalist, who
gave $4,000 to Newberry's primary
campaign, sent physicians certii-
cate declaring that he suffered from q
heart ailment which made testifying
too dangerous. The process server
had found him having q good time on
private yacht.
About two months ago the supreme
court reversed the lower court decision
against Newberry on the ground that
the law provided no regulation of pri-
mary elections.
Newberry posed as the loyal candi-
date, but the ring backing him evil
IDENTIFY had doubts about the loyalty
Of Michigan; SO huge sums were spent
to make the state "loyal." That Amer
icanism was not in danger, except
from Newberry's slush funds, is
shown by the fact that Henry Ford
was the rival candidate.
