THE CURRENT WAR

For the moment there is lull in wars fought
with visible weapons" said Rudyard Kipling in re-
cent speech in London eve are deep now in a world
war that aims to destroy the spirit and will of man
in his home and at his work
This is the essence of the new model of war, to
create Ill WILL which is the mother of despair, and
through that i'll will to exploit the damnabe streak in
each OF US which leads us to stop our own work and
talk about the duties of others"
1t is much easier to feel patriotic about war
fought with visible weapons and to feel an exalted he
rolsm in the face Of physical danger But will be
wonderful day for this poor old world when the citi
zens OF all nations, great and small have learned to
fight III will with good will, to act rghteously and
as they are in the promotion Of military VIC
tories.

Pennsylvanian Who Became Prominent in Philippines
 Dies, Picturesque Figure

BAGUIO, P. l., Sept. 10. (P)-Geo. F. Haight, one of the picturesque fig ures of the Philippines. died recent ly in the military hospital at Camp John Hay. A native of Pennsylva- nia, Haight came to the Philippines in 1899 as a soldier in a volunteer regiment and served during the in- surrection.
 Taken ill after his discharge from the army he believed he was suffer ing from tuberculosis with little chance of recovery. He went to Mt Pawin, 5000 feet above sea level, where he eventually regained his health and determined to spend the rest of his life in the mountains
 Haight established a rest house which became known throughout the islands. It was visited by many per sons, notwithstanding it required "a 30-mile ride on horseback to get there. He leaves a widow and three sons.

Famine Victims On Island
 In Japan Eat Ground Bark

TOKYO, Sept. g. (P)-A commits sion which recently returned from the Loochoo Islands, which lie be- tween Japan and Formosa, reported that the inhabitants have been re- duced to abject misery because of the scarcity of food this year. Many of them, it was stated, are eating the bark of banana palms ground into powder. It is now proposed that the unfortunate residents be per mitted to use the sugar and sake taxes, amounting to about 3,000,O00 yen, for the purchase of food.
 During the war boom the Loochoo Islanders waxed prosperous and were able to buy rice. Their usual diet is sweet potatoes, part of which they grow and the remainder of which they import from Satsuma. The sug- ar price this year, however, was such that the inhabitants could make no profit whatever and were unable to import their usual sweet potato ra- tions. In addition the bonito catch was also very poor. Consequently the Japanese commission reported ser- ous food shortage and recommended that steps be taken by the govern ment to ameliorate the condition of the islanders.

 Drunkenness is not the only evil which these unworthy members of society exhibit" says the archbishop.

Huge Waste Gasoline Results From Useless
 Running of Motors

PITTSBURGH, Sept. 10, P)- Statistics compiled by Prof. Alexan- der Silverman, head of the chemis- try department of the University of Pittsburgh, disclose that automobile and truck drivers annually are vast ing 385,270,200 gallons of gasoline.

John Mendas, bell boy, and Ralph E
Jones, waiter.
Venice and Blazi. characterized by
the prohibition agents as the arch

set for July 8. but Blazi was held fol-

and should be glad If the man who
developed the case would continue to

The hotel management knew moth

ever, he said, to the method which he
said he had learned was used by the
prohibition agent in making the case.
Under Standing Orders.
Mr.. Harnett's announcement today
followed formal statement last night
by Henry l.. Merry, president Of the
hotel, who said that from the time
the hotel opened l have let it be known
that any employe who violated the
prohibition law would be dismissed at
once.
1t is, of course, not to be wondered
at that out of a normal employment
of nearly 900 persons some should be
tempted to violate the law" he added

Capt. Henry Snyder, retired police
officer. now employed in the tax col
lector's office. who has managed to
keep that number for 13 years, ever
since his dog was a puppy.
Persons desiring certain higher
numbers not yet reached on the list
Of tags issued were advised that they
would have to be on hand in the
tax office when that number became
available, or it would go to whoever
happened to be next In line. Some
applicants were perfectly satisfied to
hang around maybe for hours, or
to come back tomorrow or the next
day, in order to get the number they
wanted.
Dogs Brought Along.
Some of the applicants even brought
their CANNES along with them to the
License Bureau and now and then
the corridors of the District Building
on the first floor rang out today with
the sharp yelps of a restless purp
carried in the arms Of it's youthful
owner.
The line extended at times today
FAR out into the corridor from the
rear of the building nearly to the
front door. The congestion probably
will continue for several days, or un-
til all dogs not in the vagabond class
are properly registered.

clerk of the District government, was

on his desk and give vent to three
long and lusty howls
woof-woofy. for he had just floundered
through the first day of his annual
tag battle at the District Building,
faced with a withering barrage of
questions, entreaties and demands
from some Is. 600 dog owners.
The questions. entreaties and de-
mands fired at Mr.. Ward ranged from
