WATSON'S CHARGES

While Senator Watson's charges that American
soldiers were hung in France without a trial are
probably unfounded, it is poor policy to let
indignation take the place of jud gment in consid-
ering them for they may be true
They sound impossible, yet many impossible
ties were achieved during the years this country
was fighting to make the world safe for democracy.
Ten years ago any person predicting the espionage
act or the so-called ''dsloyalty' prosecutions Of
the war, involving the virtual abrogation of the
bill of rights. would have been pronounced crazy.
Yet these things happened.
The war was carried on under an impene-
trable veil of censorship. Nobody really knows
what was going on in France while our boys were
there, and those who knew at the time were not
permitted to tell A good many of the 'inalien-
able rights of the people, both in the ranks and
at home, were rampled upon and it is therefore
impossible to say off hand that the things which
Senator Watson charges did not take place.
A full and complete investigation should be
had, without any suspicion of whitewash and the
public should be given the facts. Then, if the
charges are false, the people will know how to
deal with those responsible for them; if true. the
honor of the nation demands that the guilty be
punished.

GOING 1T ALONE
ATLANTA Georgian.D

Like thousands OF others, you have often said;
"If l make money for others, l can make
money for myself
But could you?
In the first place, how would you procure the
capital which would make your service valuable
in the proportion that they are to your
employer?
You might start in a small way, but could you
become a misunderstanding competitor with such 4
small production capacity?
Have you, y9Rrsef, the business sagaoity and
capacity to carry ON the manufacturing and sell
ing ends of business?
Ii you do not: possess these qualifications. you
had better let we'll enough alone and not lose
your little savings.
Plan to increase your efforts for your EN-
ployer and eventually earn an increase in salary.
Statistics prove that 80 per cent OF new ven
lures are failures
1t is better to go slower and sure and not sail
the uncharted unless you are firmly con-
WINGED that you qualified.

Daily Poem
TRUTH

(Maude de Verse Newton)
Truth is SO ancient grumbled
Youth,
Nothing can my eager search ex-
Where beaten trail is not already
worn
By those who sought its goodly
prize before
Truth is so boundiess,' whispered
Age,
millions are its hues to radiate--
Its gorgeous chambers in the House
Of Life
With flaming inspiration animate
Truth is so narrow" muttered
Youth,
Marking for my feet the selfsame
path
As traversed by the ages in their
Each day wasted candles after
math.'
Truth is SO spacious" whispered
Age
widening its borders day by day,
Whose covenant of unrepeated grace
With sunrise and with sunset gilds
the way
Truth is so heartless,' fretted
Youth,
Never can 1 satisfy my soul
With slipping at the honeyed joys
see,
Lest 1 should miss the amaranthine
goal.
Truth is so tender" pondered Age,
Leading by the ever blooming
fields
Thai from the futile dragon of defeat
The spirit of my better being
shields
Truth is translated unto all,
sA Measured by the draughts of it they
drink;
rnsounded still by Youth or tempered
Unblazoned still its mighty, tideless
brink.

MOI ~ THE SAME BOAT

The notion that the collapse or suicide of civil
cation in Europe would be fatal to the United
Staes is not sound 1t would be disaster of the
first magnitude and it would entail expensive
and troublesome adjustment Of western affairs,
but it would not necessarily carry this country
down with it.
This is a very important point to keep in mind
in the present exigency. Eastern nations are COM
ing to the armament conference with the plea that
I'VE are all in the same boa" They telling
us in loud and beseeching tones that their troubles
are ours. We must save them at any cost. We
must even bargain and decker with them on the
subject Of armament deductions. They are will
ing to reduce their fighting machinery if-the if
including vast but indefinite volume of conces-
sions, agreements and guarantees on. the part of
Uncle Sam.
They ought to be told officially and at the very
beginning that we navigating different craft
We are willing to help them to the extent of our
power, but if they insist upon driving on the rocks
we shall have to seek safe waters alone We are
advising them to cut down their war expenses for
their own sakes rather than ours. We are not
willing TO hire them to do so.
Europe has been close to the bottom many times
and has always pulled out somehow She will
probably do it again, if not now, at least after
other war or two has stated her thirst for slaughter.
But the time has come to serve notice that we are
going ahead If they choose to go back, the trail
divides.
A little Of that kind of information straight from
the White House would not only facilitate the
work of the conference, but it would put the con-
ferees in possession of what is beyond all question
the sentiment of the American people.

As Others See 1t
THE WOODEN SINGLE
(Tampa Tribune.(

The Lakeland Telegram, coming to the defense
of the wooden single in Cities takes issue with
the Tribune on the statement that a freproof
single is safer in any city, town or village
where climatic conditions are such as to make
all wooden coverings burn like finder"
The Telegram says Now, if the Tribune writ
will take the trouble to look up the statistics
he will find that the number of fires due to shin
gle roofs is remarkably small as compared with
those from other causes. 1t is rare that Il fire
starts in the roof. Electric wiring defective fues
and incendiarsm start perhaps fifty times as
many fires originate in that way. And in the
few cases where sparks lighting on roof have
started blaze it is usually the result of careless
neglect rather than of any inherent defect in the
covering"
Granted. All that the Telegram says. Still
safety first demands that a freproof covering
be used in all thckly settled places Why? Be
cause after the Chicago fire had been started by
a COW kicking over lamp in she'd it was the
sparks and brands blown by the wind and light
ing the wooden roofs, of the houses that caused
the blazes which put the fire out of control of the
fire department, and laid the city in ashes.
Because when Jacksonville suffered from its
holocaust, the wind blew blazing wooden shingles
across the city and set fires block after block
ahead so numerous and scattered so widely that
the fire department could not handle them, and
the whole city burned.
Because when hospital burned in Augusta
some eleven years ago, the wind scattered the
blazing embers from the building of
more, than square mile, and hundreds of fires
were started in the course of the afternoon in
the wooden tinder-ike shingle roofs of the houses
1t is not to specific house from burning
that non-ndammable roof covering is demanded
by municipalities, but that the city as a whole
may not be destroyed by flames, if any specific
house takes fire and burns.

WELLS ON CIVILIZATION

H. c. Wells is a wonderful writer, and the ar
mament conference, with the problems with which
it will wrestle constitute a wonderful theme. He
has already broken ground in his first letter, pub
lished exclusively" by leading papers of the coun-
try, dealing with the general condition of civiliza
ton.
He paints doleful picture Civilization is
sagging. 1t is slowly rotng to death. 1t is not
matter of the future but the disaster is here now
Russia and Austria are below the water line.
France is almost there Great Britain is parayzed
by the disease. New York city, with all its gaity
and signs of prosperity is sad spectacle because
the shadow of impending ruin hangs over it. The
monetary system of the world is dsorganized. Con
hdence in the future is destroyed. he ruin which
began in 1914 has been accumuating volume and
momentum in spite of the armstice and the farccal
Versailles treaty Unless there can be effected
complete change in world policies, involving
not only disarmament but a revision OF national
relations the world is doomed, and MIR. Wells
and his wife, looking at it from their personal point
Of view, have nothing before them but the loss
of their sons in coming wars and saddened and
ruined old age such as has fallen 10 the lot of
many family similarly situated in the already
engulfed nations of Europe.
So far as his description of Europe is
cerned. we are not prepared to deny its accuracy
He describes the fate of all senile races and

Wells is so familiar teens with similar Instances.
In fact, the study of dead languages, dead races
and dead civilizations. constitutes most of the ex
ercise of the historian.
When a race passes certain number of cen
turtles on earth it dies. No good reason therefor
can be assigned, but the fact is incontestable. And
the British, the French, the Spanish, the Belgian,
the various fragmentary peoples which constitute
the shattered Austrian empire and the Balkans,
with many Others that could be named, are all old
races Mr.. Wells diagnosis is probably safe
as would be a prediction that weakness and dis
ease would, in few years, play havoc with the
inmates of a home for the aged
But he is addressing his remarks to a nation
that does not come under that category. America
is young. 1t is not, as too many Europeans per-
