Admiral MCGOWAN asserted that

subsisted 100000 troops en- route to
France and 100000 returning troops.
In connection with the wartime work
of the subsistence branch, he said:

BANGS MAKES OBSERVATIONS
Declares Aid Must Be Continued to

Hope, Not Despair, in
Their Hearts.

New York.-Bolshevism will never
take root in the miles Of ruins along
the Aisne as long as the morale Of the
French is kept high while the people
are rebuilding and replanting, asserts
John Kendrick Bangs. 1t Is better
to build up human soul than to re-
store a ruined chateau, the well-known
writer and lecturer epitomlzes.
Speaking from observations made In
two trips Of inspection through the
regions which remain almost as
wrecked and desolated as the Ger
mans left them, he declares the work
done by the American Committee for
Devastated France to be most import
tant In steadylng the population dur
Ing the reconstruction period.
Fears Would Be AlIayed.
"In restless times like these" said
Mr.. Bangs, '.when the great DOGGY Of
Bolshevism is being reared every

sorts of compromises with conscience,

fears would be allayed, and that they

standards of any sort by which the

The mayor says he has information
that young men kiss their dancing
partners without any 1retense of con-
cealment; that men also hold girls in
so close an embrace as would bring
swift punishment from fathers IL they
were presenA. The mayor also says he
has been told couples remain at one
spot on the floor for several minutes,
devoting their whole attention to "an
enthusiastic hug"
1t is intlmated that young women,
especially those given to decollete
dress, are regarded as almost as culp-
able as their partners, and that in the
matter of arrests no distinction will
be made.

as il promised something different

No Such Weakness There.

but that il had the virtue at least of

weakness In the hearts of those good
people in the department of the
Aisne.
"They looked with cold, dumb grief
upon the wreckage that had once been
home, but the flag they raised above
them was not the red flag of despair,
but the tri-color of hope. and 1 am
proud to say that In one corner of 1t

knew that that flag had waved gal

Indeed 1t was proof that that civiliza-
ton was going TO see them safely

and 1t Is to the relief of those, rather
than to that of the unscarred, that we
should turn our attention, carrying to

moral support for which civilization
is supposed to stand.
81 must admit that as I traversed
the devastated regions of France and
Belgium in my two visits to the war
area, and looked upon the ruin there,

Tokyo.-All the news that filters
down from Siberia, through the vari-
Gus propaganda bureaus and from in

that things In that section of the
world are rapidly going from bad to
worse, with the prospect that this
winter will find woe and misery as
widespread as during last winter,
with death and famine taking toll of
