Russan-Japanese War American sentiment leaned strongly toward Japan. It would probably so stand in another war between those countries. Japan is the strong and responsible government on the Asiatic side of the Pacific just the United States
 is the strong and responsible government on the American side. It was so in 1904 and it is so now. Japan has been fair in her relations with the United States in the intervening years. There is no good reason to believe that she is not so still.

we face such facts before we

Or should we continue to pre-

gallant dreams, of waving flags

A Book of Horrors
A leading book publishing
house believes that you should

sentimentalists, they realize
that nations must be protected;
but they feel that there may
be other means of protection
more efficacious than war, and
that people should know exactly
what they are doing before
they choose war.
So they have published a
book of photographs entitled
THE Horror of It." 1t is a
terrible book. Not everything
is shown. There are things
which it is not possible for any
book to show. But there is as
much there as you can BEAR.

The publishers of this book

them a face without a throat,

LISTEN, WORLD!
By Elsie Robinson

But you shouldn't be allowed
to know about that face, says
the U. S. A. War Department,
who refused to lend any of their
filed photographs.
ITO give out such pictures"
said Maj. Gen. Irving Carr,
speaking for the department,
would be against public policy.
1t would not be ethical; it would
not be decent. Think of the
Gold Star mothers the country
sent to France! Over there they
saw the lovely cemeteries in
which lie the dead of the A. E.
F Perhaps their boys lie there.
The mothers carried home in
their minds beautiful pictures
of those well-kept resting places.
Yes? I wonder!
Do They Know?
I wonder if the gentlemen of
the War Department really
known what a Gold Star mother
carries in her mind.
Do they honestly think that
the sight of a little tidy grass,
a nicely painted cross, can erase
from mothers heart the mem
ory of a helpless baby body;
can bar from her imagination
the thought of that precious
flesh, riddled. raveled into a
Shrieking death?
And what of those other
mothers who must some day
wear a Gold Star, unless war
comes to an end? Are they,
too, to be fooled by lawn
mowers and whitewash brushes
give the flesh of their flesh
to provide fertilizer for lovely
landscape gardening?
Or shall we now rise in
their defense; strip away the
gilt and the garlands; show
the noseless face, the shat
tered skull. behind the waving
banner, and so, perhaps, save
their boys from war?

We Shall See What We

In the days of jackson,
when men were fighters and
fought for policies and prin-
ciples like men, dealing tell

one of the great Jacksonians
was deluged with abuse be-
cause of a smashing speech
which did damage to the
foe. And this man gleefully
exclaimed: 81 have hit them
for they flutter.
Within the present gener-
alton in the party of Jack

The Public Has
Right to Know

There are always SNUG
papers like the London
Times of those days to jeer
at men who stand for some
thing and fight for it with
battle axe and artillery.
But the public in a democ-
racy has these rights:
The right to know from
each contending party the
best it can say in justifica-
tion of its policies.
And the right to know the
worst that legitimately may
be said against the policies
of the opposing party.
It was Voltaire who said
IN substance:
II do not believe word
you say, but I will defend
with my life your right to
say it."
And it was Jefferson who
said:
ANY government that
cannot stand the arbitra-
ment of debate is not fit to
live.
And the public has an
other right-the right to
know, without equivocation
or recourse to mystification,

candidate on every issue

It isn't your job that is to

full as dafiodil, and runs from
one who is bored or soured or
cynical. Every man prefers
May to November.
And, of course, you can al
ways charm a man, just as he
can charm a woman, by play
ing audience; by listening
while he walks about himself;
by passing out the appleSauce
and applause. BY asking for
his ADVICE and his "judg-
ment." BY AGREEING with
him that the world is flat or
that the sun do move" or
that the moon is made of
green cheese. BY giving him
all the big scenes and long
speeches and limelight.
Because, what the average
man is looking for in a woman
is not a siren, but a good
AUDIENCE! Not a stimulant-
but a sedative!
All the brains, beauty and
fine character in the world
never charmed a man like a
combination of poise, sweet in
difference, smart clothes, buoy
ant spirits and a sympathetic
EAR. Alas, if a woman could

OverwOrk
You feel badly in need of a
vacation.
Getting away from all work
for a month or so seems to
you the only respite that would
do you any good.
Because you cannot do this,
you feel there is no chance of
favoring yourself.
But how about the time that
you are not employed?
Do you use this time to re-
cuperate or do you take on
some form of recreation that
leaves you exhausted?
Late hours make a big de-
mand on your vitality and yet
you indulge yourself in amuse-
ment that takes you out late
and makes sleeping hours short.
You burn the candle at both

AS the Jury

So if the coming cam

all, the Administration will
be the subject Of vigorous

in the street can understand.
And the Administration will
have the right to answer
just as vigorously as it can.
And the people will sit as

We want no cowardly
whispering campaign again;
we are not concerned in this
election with the personal
side of candidates, with their
religion, or their race; and
he who appeals to preju-

national policies, will be a
contemplate person.
The campaigners on both
sides will be expected to
get down to cases, to mince
no words, to discuss the is
sues growing out Of the poll
cies in operation now, and
the reasons for the tragic
condition in America today.
And in these discussions
Mr.. Hoover, head of the Ad-
ministration asking from
the people a "well done,
good and faithful servant, "
cannot expect to be ignored.

w approaching President
Hoover appears henceforth
in a dual capacity. He is
President, but during the
next six months he is a
party candidate for the
presidency, subject to pre-
cisely the same criticism and
analysis as any other can
didate. As a candidate he
has the same right as any
other candidate to defend
himself against attacks.
This means, of course, po-
litical attacks upon his poll
cies, his theories of gov
ernment, the course of his
Administration. To assume
that a man in office seeking
a reelection on his record
is immune from attack upon
that record is a manifest alb
surdity. That would mean
putting the snuffer on de-
bate; and that would be
the negation of popular gov
ernment.
We may be sure that his
Administration, so suscep-
tible to assault, will be Wig
orously attacked, unless the
blood of the opposing party
has turned to water, and its
leaders are Little Lord
Fauntleroys. Whether these
attacks will be effective
with the people depends
upon the answer that is
made. There can be no
hiding in silence behind the
screen of exalted office
Again we quote from
Woodrow Wilson, whose
worst enemies never accused
him of being a vulgarian.
He was writing on John
Bright and taking notice of
the snug complaint of the
London Times that the
great leader did not enumer-
ate the good things in the
opposite party. And Wilson
wrote:
"Mr. Bright is positive
and obstinate in his op-
position to the policy Of
the present conservative
government. Tolerance is
an admirable intellectual
gift; but it is of little worth
in politics. Politics is a war
of causes; a joust of prin-
ciples. Government is too
serious a matter to admit
of meaningless courtesies.
In this grand contestation
of warning principles, he
who doubts is a laggard
and an impotent. Absolute
identity with ones cause is

tion of successful leader

The Only Hope
Of the Democrats

Never in our history have
party ties been looser than
today. Many millions of the
victims of the stupidities
and privileges of govern
ment are concerned solely
with finding some agency
through which they and
their interest can find ex-
preston. No sham battle
between parties will satisfy
them.
Under the circumstances,
the Republicans being in,
the strategy Of the party in
power is to convince the
people there is scarcely any
difference between the two
major parties; for then
there would be no point in
a change.
But the amazing thing is
that there are so many Dem
ocrats, calling themselves
leaders, who want to make
their party as nearly like
the party in power, in its
political and economic poll
cies as possible. What as
founding stupidity!
Under existing conditions,
the one hope of the Demo-
Gratis is to convince the peo-
pie that they have a diff
ferent set of principles, a
different policy, a different
concept of the status of the
average man in the scheme
of state.
The average man is not in
terested in who holds the
offices; he is concerned
with a change in policies.
