AKX XXX R W ok ok ok k AR R KKK KKKK KKK K ‘HiS PAPER REPRESENTED FGR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO SRANCHES (N ALL THE PRINCIPAL CiTiee SPIRIT OF LAWLESSNESS. Late yesterday afternoon Chief of Police Frank Ripple in arresting a man for whom he had a warrant, had a struggle. The chief called up- on several citizens standing nearby to assist him and they refused. By so doing they not only should have been arrested themselves but they deserve to lose the name of citizens. Their spirit is a spirit of lawlessness. Statutes provide that when a po- lice officer asks for assistance it must be given. Section 8575 of the revised laws of Minnesota, 913, say, that ev- ery person who after being lawfully commanded to aid an officer in ar- resting any person or in retaking any person who has escaped from custody shall wilfully negelect or refuse to aid such officer shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. Chief Ripple should arrest euch person who refused to assist him yes- terday. By so doing he would strike a popular chord. ENGLAND AWAKENS TO ZEPPELIN MENACE England has at least awakened, if )i not to the danger, at least to the i nuisance of the Zeppelin meaace, ac- cording to Londoa reports. Candid admigsion Ttaving b2en made in London japis ot the raids are ‘“becoming somewhat continucus and irritating,” England has set her- self to meet them. Having thus scratched the surface of British self-complacency, Germany may ‘soon find herself facing a rival aerial ‘program as stup2nious and as difficult ‘to meet as the naval com- struction program of the British ad- miralty. A project for the launching of fifty aircraft within the next two years and: the laying down of sufficient each.year thereafter to insure com- plete mastery of the air is England’s The British fleet of - dirigibler would be purely a “home defense” fleet. Should it later become an of- fensive ‘weapon its 'sponsors declare that would be logical. France appears successfully to have solved the Zeppelin menace with her aeroplane service. England has not. This does not mean that England is deficient in that service, for she has developed an extensive and effective i fleet. Either it means that aerial defense has'riot beer given such considera- tiofi-or that the great bulk of the Bnglish’ aeridl corps is in Flanders orat the Dardanefles. The:projeet for a fleet of dirigibles is-based ‘on -the fact that the dirigi- ble is the worst enemy of the Zeppe- lin. Lighter thain-air, the Zeppelin can ascend rapidly, while the aero- | planes:-chasing them' climb slowly. | The - English aerial - fleet program | m.._t - e s aa provides for the immediate construc- tion of 30 sheds about 800 by 200 feet. These would belarger than the Zeppelin shed used by Germany and ‘would admit- the simultaneous con- struction of two aircraft in each. The steel frames for these would come from the United States. Brick and.cement are available in England. | The cost of each shed including the gas plant, would be about $250,000. It is estimated that six months sheds. Two aircraft would be at once be laid down in each, the designs be- ing completed during the six months of building. Détivery of the craft could begin within a year. By the end of the second year it is estimated a fleet of - fitty craft would be complete. ~After that a steady program of laying down a certaln number each year would be enforced. T'he type of dirigible suggested as being ot effective for home defense ‘would be able to rise 8,000 ‘feet, would have a speed of fifty-five miles an HoGr and a lifting capacity of ten tons each. The cost would be about T BemidfDaly Ploseer tial’ Cost of ‘the ameritil fledt of “Afty vesgeéls togéther wWith the tHirty’sheds up to about $32,600,000. Additional” defense could also be secured, it has been suggested, by re- quiring each- ship-building concern to-erect a shed and maintain a.diri- gible.

In an address before :the British-Academy, Lord Bryce thus pat the blame on telegraphy: “In the twelve fatal days between July 23 and August 4, last yeaty; there was no time for reflection.

Therefore, the potato grower who ships unsorted potatoes really has to pay the charge of sort: ing. The shipper of unsorted potatoes; also, has to pay another charge, and that is the freight on the culls whick are later taken out of his shipment. The shipper of unsorted potatoes, therefore, is simply wasting money. It pays to sort because it gives one the top market prices and because it saves freight on culls, and, it might be added, because the culls could be .| buried in a carload of oats'in the We can’t remember that Carranza ever saluted the U.
