One Of the curious things about
American life is the universal fear of
the word conservative. Nobody seems
to be willing to call himself con-
servative, to defend conservatism, to
think out conservative doctrines. Yet
conservatism is an honorable attitude,
and when coupled with intelligence
and clarity of mind 1t is permanent
factor in any society. In every age
there are needed men who understand
so well how its institutions work that
they can force the innovator to the
severest test. without able conserva-
tfves, the progressive spirit becomes
f1abby and wayward. and few issues
are settled on their merits. Weak or
furtive conservatives cannot put pro-
gressives through a searching test; (;
they merely loll about. confusing the
issue. obstructing blindly, says New
Republic. They make the intellectual
victory too easy and practical achieve
ment too hard For they do not fight
where the issue is really Joined. on the
level where ideas are tested by reason
and by comparison with the facts, but
on the lower level of obfuscating ideas,
dragging red herrings across the scent,
and trusting to apathy and habit to
restrain their opponents.

"FlRsr PAPER" sLAckERs.

The American Legion Weekly is de-
termined to rid the country of aliens
I of neutral and allied countries who
surrendered their first papers"
rather than fight for the United
States. They had previously declared
their intention to forswear allegiance
to the land of their birth and to be-
come full-fledged citizens of the United
States, says st. Louis Times. 1t Is as
sumed in light of their future con-
duct, that their only interest in the
United States was economic. Some
evidently foresaw the opportunities to
earn larger war wages. ranging as
high as S14 day. while American
citizens of equal health. general con-
ditions and surroundings went forth
to bare their hnsoms to death. The
number is small. hut the principle
must be vindicated. The records cover

QUIZ CAUSE OF
WOMAN'S DEATH
Beauty Winner Believed a
Suicide Following Attacks
by Small Magazine.

CHICAGO. Aug ia complete in
vesigation into the death of Mrs. Mary
de Brito former wife of distinguished
Brazilian and winner Of several beauty
contests, will be asked Of Coroner Peter
NJ. Hoffman and the police, Mrs. Edwar1
Weller announced today. Mrs. De Brito
ended her life In Mrs. Weiler's home by
turning on the gas
1t is believed Mrs. De Brito ended her
life because threats made against her by
the editor of n small magazine.
Several weeks ago Mrs. De Brito OBJ
tanned a COPY of the ma gazine while
travelling on ii train. She was so shocked
by its contents that she wrote the Coz
ernOr of North Dakota where the maya
zine is published, expressing the opinion
that the publication should be suppressed
Mrs. De Brito's letter to the Governor
was forwarded by his secretary, it is said,
to the editor Of the magazine
soon after her return to Chicago. Il is
declared Mrs. De Brito received a vituper-
ative letter from the editor. Later q
roughly dressed man called at the Weller
home and made inquiries concerning Mrs.
De Brito.
Mrs. Weller believes the letter and the
man SO frightened Mrs. De BritO, who
was Of a highly nervous temperament,
that she took her own life
