clergymen who are opposing De.
Tense Day.
So far the clergymen are con.
cerned. the question resolves itself
into the following:
Do we promote human welfare
more by sticking to our own govern.
ments or by stressing international
political governmental action?
A great paradox then arises.
Our Protestant churches are or.
CARNATIONS which. as organizations,
exist entirely within our own
borders. They nevertheless tend to
stress international action.
Meanwhile the Roman Catholic
church is the only really inter.
ational ecclesiastical organization
that we have. 1t nevertheless tends
to stick to our own government and
has never done anything much at
Washington to promote the League
of Nations or the World Court and
is now officially heavily inclined
toward a support of Defense Day.
This paradox this writer, as a
Protestant, and as a layman, does
not feel competent further to ex-
plore. He merely reports that 1t
exists.
Poor War Department.
Meanwhile, finally, the poor tor
mented War Department, which Is
accused of trying to "Prussianize'
the United States and which is &C.
cused OF trying to make it do the
goose step" thinks that in fact, IT
is trying to introduce into the
United States an extremely demo
cratic sort of preparedness" less
like a goose step than a jazz step.
Everything has been de-central-
ICED. The War Department, instead
Of trying to catalogue every citizen
at Washington, is throwing all that
sort of work back on the corp
areas" and on the local communi.
ties and committees of citizens.
The success of the whole effort
is made to depend not on ma.
chine in the War Department at
Washington but on the voluntary
interest and efficiency of individ.
uals and of groups of individuals
in civilian life.
It is the first time that the War
Department of the United States
has ever made it's war plans rest
In response to this move it finds
itself accused of "Prussianism."
More Importantly, it finds itself
which will confirm and perpetuate
the present National Defense Act
or else will Immediately totally
wreck it.
War Department Opinion.
War Department opinion can in
sum be said to be as follows:
The theory of the present Defense
Act is that a small professional
army will be backed by the mobil.
lied manhood" of the country.
Defense Day will show whether
this theory is tenable and success
full or not.
If defense day does not give to
our small professional army the
backing of the manhood" of the
country, the only recourse will be
to a larger professional army.
Thus. whichever way defense day
may go, it is bound to be a day
of great decision.
If it brings out great display
of citizen support. its enemies will
in the next Congress Immediately
endeavor to repeal the manhood
mobilization" provision of the pres
ent national defense act
If defense day is failure. and
if citizen support for it does not
successfully appear, it's friends win
at once proceed to advocate a
larger professional military estab.
lishment.
Either way the thing goes. It
will deeply affect American mill
tary policy for many years to come

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Colonel Ed.
ward M. House, political adviser
to the late Woodrow Wilson and
member of the American delega-
ton to the Versailles peace con-
ference, today, in an exclusive
statement to International News
Service, characterized the Dawes
plan as "step in the right direc-
ton"
Colonel House said he hoped the
United States would eventually
enter the League of Nations, but
ne could see no sign of it in the
immediate future.
Believes Plan Will Work.
II believe the Dawes plan will
succeed" said Colonel House. but
the Republicans should not attempt
to use it as campaign material
in the Presidential campaign now
in progress. AS far as the United
States is concerned, what has been
done has been accomplished entirely
through the initiative of private
citizens. The administration hav.
Ing previously disclaimed official
connection, it cannot now claim
credit.
What has been done this year
upon the reparation problem could
have been done just as well four
years ago. 1t is a pity it was not
done.'
Colonel House admitted that but
for the happy fact that Ramsay
Macdonald and Edouard Herriot
were premiers at the same time
the London conference might have
failed.
Plan On Knees of Gods.
'The success of the plan rests
upon the knees of the gods, but
believe it will succeed" continued
the American.
Commenting upon fears in certain
British circles that England's in.
dustry will suffer from German
competition, Colonel House said:
Naturally, success of the plan
means the capacity of Germany to
sell her goods. But it also means
Germany's ability to buy will be
increased. This will aid British
industry as we'll as American"
Colonel House was much gratified
over the attendance of both
Premier Macdonald and Premier
Herriot at the League of Nations
meeting. He commented:
Hopes U. S. Enters League
''You must remember the League
has had only half a chance because
the United States, Germany and
Russia are not members. Natur.
ally, l hope for the eventual entry
of the United States but 1 cannot
see it in the immediate future.
do not believe that the League is
the most perfect instrument human
hands could devise but with the
United States entry even as an
associate member without endors-
ing the League covenant, it is the
only present hope for the worlds
peace"
Colonel House will sail on the
liner Scythia for Boston Saturday.
He said he expected Ito take
interest" in the presidential cam
paign, unreservedly backing John
w. Davis.

Game and Fish Commission
Seeks Complete Report

E. T. Judd, Cando, state game
and fish commissioner, has issued
a request to gun clubs, sports
mems associations and all other
organizations created or banded to-
gether for the purpose eff destroy
ing the crow. for a report on the
number of crows and eggs destroy
ed. In a statement he says:
II would greatly appreciate a
report showing the number Of
crows and their eggs destroyed
as for instance, it is reported that
contest at Kindred, North Da-
kota, with 100 men and boys ac-
counted for the killing of 1000
crows, counting an egg as a crow.
At Devils Lake, over 5000 were
destroyed. At the little town of
St. John, the club assessed it's
members and paid outsiders for
over 1000 besides accounting for
1000 or more by it's members.
THAT this was good work was
shown by the scarcity of native
raised birds throughout the State
during the summer time. At the
present time, many large flocks are
congregating along the northern
border and elsewhere. Complaints
are heard of their destructive work
in the grain fields after the grain
is cut and shocked"
