Maybe we, are. But not all of it as new as some of us imag-; ine. Taking a slant through Plutarch’s Lives, we| find that about 3,000 years ago, there was a great| war on between Sparta and Athens. Lysander was the Marshall Foch of the Spartans, and he handed the Athenians an armistice to sign. It} read: “You shall pull down the long walls, quit all the cities you are possessed of, and keep within the bounds of Attica. On these con- ditions you shall have peace, provided you pay what is reasonable, and restore the ex- iles. As for the number of ships you are to | keep, you must comply with the orders we | shall give you.” : ‘A few weeks went by. And it seems they had the same trouble about armistices those days that we have now. Lysander sent the Athenians a message warning them “that they had violated the ‘terms of: their capitulation; for their walls! says, “Everybody in Europe feels useless. were still standing after the time fixed for demol- ishing them was passed; and that, since they had broken the first articles, they must expect new ones from the war council.” Which shows that armistices then as now re- quire amendments. A good -reliable armistice is like a clock and needs winding. JUNK ISN’T “WORTHLESS RUBBISH” IN Old tin cans. ~~ Twisted bits of old iron. Fragments of old chairs. Just junk on a dumpground. ‘An dnsightly heap of rubbish? Blind! There is no absolute rubbish. Rubbish has come to mean:to:tis;something of! no worth. Everything has worth and value. You must have’ eyes to see, eyes lighted by imagination. Open: your eyes. Those bits of iron can be melted in the fire and molded into other forms. The tin in those battered, filthy old cans is recoverable in the acid bath of the chemist and can be put to new uses. In the wartime junkpile iron scraps were sal- vaged and turned into shrapnel. : That shrapnel helped defeat the armies of tyranny! Never talk again of “worthless rubbish!” Remember the junk that served the cause of freedom! If that junk could serve the cause of war it can serve the interests of peace as well. Old iron was recovered and used over and over again before the war. It will be so-in' the days to come. But there are other forgotten things that we’ve cast,away for years that are valuable. ” Opén eyes, alight with imagination will see them. Open your eyes! THE ORIGINAL AMERICANS NOW OUR ALLIES In all the history of conquered races there has never been anything to compare with the record of the American Indians in the great war. A thousand enlisted in the navy and 6500 en- tered the army. Indians now hold a $50 Liberty bond for every man, woman and child of their race. It is only six years since the Indians raised the} American flag for the first time—when 32 chiefs representing 11 tribes met on Washington’s birthday and opened ground for the Indian Mem- oria] in the harbor of New York. / How thoroughly the axe was buried and the red Tacé joined to us in the melting pot, is reflected in the war record of an old-timer, Chief Strongheart, who has folded his blankets and returned to the Yakama Reservation in Washington. Strongheart toured the country, spoke in many recruiting drives and loan campaigns. He visited 216 mili- tary posts and camps and entertained the dough- . boys with Indian legends. That is a far cry from the battles of the Little Big Horn and the capture of Osceola of the Ever- Columbus 427 years ago was the first of the white race to see a red man. War, liquor and dis- ease have thinned their ranks but they, are far'| from extinct. A quarter million still exist—from a sixth to half of their numbers, when America _Mman’s campaign was bitter. The {sprang the Sioux, Apaches, Ojibways and others | Hill and other old-time Rocky Mountain scouts and ‘ent, then in active Red Cross work, came back grandson of William Penn offered a bounty of $134 for every Indian scalp. That they finally joined us in the last great war dance is dramatic—and significant of our more kindly policy of later | years. To the science of warfare the American Indian brought a great contribution. He originated camouflage—painting his body to blend into the scenery and binding branches to his ponies to hide them among the trees. The American Indian, living to see world peace, may have been the first man to wage war. Ex- perts of the United States geological survey be- lieve that the first man appeared around Lake Superior in the world’s dim dawn. He brought forth the mound-builders, from whose stock others of the 58-language tribes north of Mexico. Other scientists think they came from China, through Siberia, crossing into Alaska. ‘Hank” trappers claim there is a trail to Asia leading from the city of Mexico through El Paso, Bozeman, Montana, and on via Saskatchewan. Consider the romance of the red man—Custer’s | m re—the buffalo herds—and at last his} share in lighting the permanent pipe of peace. To the new world being born at Versailles the American Indian’s share in the great war brings a message—that racial hatreds can be erased, «that peoples oppressed and conquered in past centuries will, under a policy changed to humaneness, for- get their bitterness and antagonism and gladly be- come an ally in the ¢ause of mankind. ARE WE DOWNHEARTED? NO!!! An American woman, first a news correspond- from Europe. Two New York girls, sisters, would have come on the same boat if they hadn’t slipped down to death in the sea, of their own choice. Well, this American woman explains this.. She The great and the little, the strong and the weak men and women, they feel each one that they have done| so little—O so little !—of all that needs to be done. Never did the individual note his own insignifi- cance so keenly as now when the after-the-war ‘work is far greater than the prosecution of the war itself.” | Not a dcubt there’s point to this. Day by day j we have our choice: We can buck up and do our \best inthe day’s tussle. Or we can be glum and say it’s no use doing anything. = L Every real American knows which of these two handles to take hold of.

These five men had their fair day in court under the full protection of American law. They were given every opportunity to present their case and to show, if possible, their innocence. .A jury cf twelve men, selected ‘under rules laid down in | the law, heard the evidence and found them guilty. The defendants were then given an opportunity to advance reasons why. they should have a new trial. In denying their motion, Judge Landis, pre- siding jurist, extended to each man free range to speak his mind about his own purposes about the war, the country in which he lives, its purposes, its laws and the spirit underlying those laws and pur- poses. The judge listened patiently and then pro- nounced sentence, not in anger, but in vindication of right and the law. He fixed the punishment at the maximum permitted by statute. In his plea, Berger granted to his country no worthy motive in entering the war. He said it | Was an imperialistic, capitalistic war, and added |that the peace would be that kind of peace. The jury in the case, he said, concerned itself with whisky and poker, ignoring the evidence because its collective mind, infused with bias, had been made up in advance. He alleged a persecution and | oppression outreaching those of Prussia, and had not one good word to say, apparently, of the land in which he lives. Berger manifestly is afflicted with that. kind of mental and moral astigmatism that precludes his discerning anything good in a social or political That, of course, is no crime, but it is a crime to defy the law and to flout constituted authority in |an effort to undermine American institutions and against their will and better juggment. .
