Let us make the first main drive for the Red Cross and not spread our war charity over too much territory. The Red Cross is the official relief agency of the government.

Cool and calm, able to look straight into the most piercing eye as she underwent hour after hour of ordeal, laughing with a piquant shrug of the tiny shoulders, or direct and hard as steel in denying guilt of murder, this little child has made scientists of Chicago stand in puzzled wonder. What influence has made this child what she is? Doris. “I should :think you could tell by looking at tne’ that’1 am’ innocent. And: I feel innocent.” re “Yd rather deal with a hard- ened, expert criminal any day than with a little girl. They're the worst--the worst kind of peo- ple to understand,” says Police Captain Danner. the same boy, 14-year-old Reinhardt Fleck. “Reiny,” as they called him, was a member of the “Mystic Five,” a the- atric ‘band of boys who met in dark places and talked strange phrases from the land of melodrama.

Central and South Amer- fca have abundant and unmistakable evidences of it. Underneath the debris and erosions in Europe and Asia are the splendors of old Romes, old Troys, old Babylons, old nations, old civilizations that made up the world of the time as certainly as we now make up the ‘world of these times. Those old civilizations built as we do, sometimes better; they worshiped their god or gods as faith- fully as we do ours; their aspira- tions were, in many respects, as high as ours, and, in some instances, they enjoyed social and governmental sol- idarity greater than any we have to- day. But their peoples, their works their civilizations are all gone. The civilization of today faces a cataclysm. It must meet the test ot war and famine. The issue before our civilization is one of reversion to barbarism, which, in process o! time means the fate of those old dead and buried civilizations. Our civilzation is founded upon the teachings of Jesus, whose doctrine was love and helpful, uplifting pro Bressivism. Two thousand years ago, He not only sowed the seed of en- lightenment and higher civilization. but named the ‘antidote for war and famine in.the Golden Rule. One of the very great nations of our day has abolished that rule and substituted for it the obsession that might is right. Germany justifies slaughter and starvation as individual, selfish necessities. Not all the world is as yet aroused to the fact, but German autocracy surely means cat- aclysm to the civilization of the times, an epoch in all human aairffs. With out liberty, equality, justice, democ- racy, our civilization goes backward and is finally buried as were those War and famine! A cataclysm! We have to kill war by crushing Ger- ened with civil war and anarchy. SPEED UP! It is clear enough now that the United States will never get started in this war, will never put in motion her tremendous power to end the war, until members of Congress are ‘made to understand that they are hired tc work for the nation and not for them- selves. Nearly six weeks have passed since, with the most exalted of mo tives and the most righteous aims, we declared to the world that we took up the sword to defend civilization and democracy Today all ow activi- ties are still hung upon a dead center because of the vast egotism displayed in Congress. Helped, of course, by disloyalty. Because we should not for a moment overlook the fact that the Copper- heads are busy on Capitol Hill. .With- out the courage to come into the open they seize’ every opportunity to sting into paralysis the government they have sworn to uphold. This is the tragic situation. We.see France beng put to death before us. We hear her appeals for help. We feel deeply the national obligation to save her—on her ac- count and our own no less. Some of us even begin to understand that ff we allow France to be crushed our own existence is placed in the dead- liest ‘peril. The nation, deeply moved, demands action, swift, sure, resolute. Congress stops all action by going adrift upon a heaving sea of verbiage and guff. my Six weeks and not one piece of war legislation completed, and here is the cause. Take, for instance, the preposter- ous and insane deadlock between the two houses over the army draft bill. One bullheaded outfit wanted to keep in the provision for the Roose- velt contingent and the other bull- headed outfit was determined to get it out, and they held up all-action and Ww much per loaf. with Italy for a separate peace.
