CATTLE ON A THOUSAND HILLS"

"The National League to Conserve Food Ami
mails has broken loose again. Its circular appeal
to common sense and decency' states that "about
100000 cattle and sheep will starve to death dur
ing the current year." This statement is said to
rest estimates made by the federal government.
Moreover $3.50, ,000,0 900 is a conservative estimate
on what the death loss of cattle and sheep from
starvation cost the American people last year"
All of which is important, if true. But, why be
conservative? Why not throw the brake off step
the gas, and let imagination swoop wide and
free? Something of this sort is done in one para
graph of the circular which states
THAT of millions of food animals are
turned out to shift for themselves frozen
ing lands in the northwest and sunparched prairies
in the south, with the certainty of lingering
tortuous death for millions of them from starvation
thirst"
This not new crusade Many years ago Minnie
Maddern Fiske, who is great actress began to agi-
tate for comfortable barns and shelters for range
stock. Since that time the open range she still
visions has largely disappeared. Now, then, the
of the herds and flocks are business men,
deeply concerned in caring for their property. We
wonder if Mrs. Fiske any of her associates

southern ranges, back again, the seasons

How we'll meant interference with the ways of

might multiply the animals. Last years drouth cut
the food supply short, and the heavy of the
early winter buried most of what left, and the
deer starved to death. How many know that the
lsaak Walton League raised more than $1,000.000

during the last winter?
Some animals do die the range from cold,

Other animals die from disease. But the men who

PEACE BY "SECURITY"

A certain definite note rang clearly through the
speech of Austen Chamberlain the Geneva proto-
col He told parliament, and the world, that the
British government will have nothing further to do
with the wreckage of that plan. If peace is to be
saved for the world, it will come through other
methods
While he did not specifically refer to the French
Security" plan, he proposed that Europe be united
the basis of guaranteed peace. In any such com
pact Germany must be admitted as equal and full
partner. A mutual pact between Germany and her
late enemies is the only certain way of allaying
sting fears and restoring public confidence in the
nations of Europe. And these fears must be al
layed, this confidence restored, if recovery is to be
made. Europe not go as it is says the Brit
ish foreign minister. Divided into hostile camps,
each disrustfu of the other the nations at present
incapable of doing any of the things they must
do in order to preserve the future. new Armaged-
don or a new pact is the alternative.
Mr.. Chamberlain did not offer any pledges for
Germany but he did say:
THE German government is making a sincere
and honest attempt to lead better state OF
things II l understand it's proposals rightly. Ger.
many is prepared to guarantee voluntarily what
hitherto it has accepted only under eompnlsion OF
the treatv-a status in the west.
With Germany agreed, and working to the end
of restoring its people to economic prosperity With
France reassured and with the lesser nations given
the guarantees of the stronger that they not to
be moested, peace in Europe may be secured. Cham
oerlan's program has sound foundation, and will
get careful examination. He has gone far in the
direction opposite to that which Macdonald
travelling and he is probably on the right track.

"oPEN DOOR" IN MOVING PICTURES.

Either magnificent gesture real stroke of
genius is the "open door policy announced by
Will H. Hays for the moving picture industry. He
outlines his proposal thus:
THE distinctive characteristic Of rev open
door policy is that we invite every organization of
every description in either this country other
country which Is interested in public hetterment.
to designate authoritative representative WHO
will be its contact with the motion picture industry
invited at all times TO come in through open
door and tell us OF Improvements which might be
made in having the motion picture responsive
to it's public service obligations and how
cooperate with them"
Accepting this at it's face value, it is an invita-
tion to the public to take at least advisory part
in the great game of making the movies. Also,
challenge to the organized bodies that have actively
worked to censorship boards under federal
state control. Mr.. Hays meets them halfway and
pives them a chance to have something to say con-
cerning the character if pictures and the general
trend Of the business before the films come to the
exhibitors
The most ready answer is that producers know
in advance if the picture they planning is worthy
or not None dull to need instruction with
regard to morality decency. Standards vary, but
the safe plan is to take the highest and keep to it.
That from ten to twenty million people patronze
moving picture theaters daily argues only the popu
larity of the entertainment. Whether this will be
enhanced or lessened by innovations which may
change the character Of the films is to be determined
Uncertainty on this score will account for the re-
luctance with which change is approached by the
producers.
We believe that Mr.. Hays makes his offer in good
faith. Not much to the bringing about Of great
reform in the character of the pictures perhaps,
to the end that critics may be made little more
familiar with problems the producer has to deal with
Not the least Of these is the fckleness of public
tastes, the risk incurred whenever great produc-
Son is presented. Happily the for complaint
against the movies have been largely eliminated by

HELIUM FOR THE BIG BALLOONS.

Uncle Sam is owner of two of the largest dirgible
balloons in captivity. Each of these is worth
several millions of dollars. From thirty to fifty men
are employed in their operation while aloft. All of

The Appeal OF the Training Camps


From the Kansas C.ty Times
Ever since Leonard Wood and Theo-
dore Roosevelt popularized the Platts-
burg idea the merit of special training
of citizens for a limited period each
year has been recognized. The citi-
zens' military training camps, fash
ioned after the Plattsburg plan, have
offered opportunities of an unusual
sort to increasing numbers OF young
men. They have afforded training In
The duties of citizenship. loyalty, dis
cipline and patriotism, and have aided
In building up dependable reserve
forces that might be used in the event
of national crisis.
Each year new features have been
added to this training and enlarged
facilities have been provided. Ma jor
General Duncan. commanding the
Seventh Corps area. announces that
fourth.year training at the camps this
summer will be open 10 young men
ND to the age Of 81 who can qualify
for II. That will afford an opportun-
ity for men who have had military ex-
perience and who may still desire 20
keep themselves afit for future service.
TO these. as we'll as to the younger
men WHO nave never iiiad the pehehN
of the camps and those who wish 10
continue their training there, tho
chances held out for n month this
summer should make an irresistible
appeal.
The citizens camps are essentially
builders of American manhood. The
youth who has regard for his own
future welfare and the responsibilities
of American citizenship will do well to
con slider them.
