These statements are either bunk and Acod not concern us, or they constitute what I call the greatest crisis in the world’s history. “Why do these facts involve us so acutely that we should deniand that our government immediately uncover the truth? Because hunger on so large a scale is bound to lead to politi- cal unheaval. And, as a nation, we cannot help but be profoundly affect: ed by this when so great a portion of civilization is involved, “Take the first fact—that famine is stalking abroad in these lands—and then add to it the-second fact—that great indemnities have been levied by the allies upon these central countries —and We have a perfect seed bed for Toolshevism to breed in.” - SEES AUTOCRACY “If we do not take such steps, either as a nation or as a group of interna- tioally-rainded pusiness men, — then j what do you see as the effect of fam- in revolution in the parts of I asked Vanderlip. and rope affected?” “T see the possibility of the building up there of the most despotic.: tyran- now autocracy we have had in mod- history,” he answered You mean the downfall of capital: ism—that capitalism asa form of hu- man co-operation will be wrecked?” “No; not permanently, at leas not prepared to believe that Social in practice will ever prove a tenable form of government, I am convinced that conerete Marxianism has provea failure in Russia, and that nq sane man will want it continued anywhere it is once tried. “In fact, I believe that already Lenine has found it a failure and that as a result, he has put into effect in Russia the most pronounced autocracy of modern times, and that what he is now tending toward is a restoration of the capitalistic form of econorhic life for his natiog. “Byt let us not forget that there is no form of government, not even the Utopiag that seem so perfect om paper, that will minister adequately to the wants of-human kind unless man: him- with migtit and main, to keep pirit inviolate against the intrusions of greed and antagonism; unless we stand always: in spirit for FAIR PLAY to all human creatures- until then we can never have a Utopia, and when that time comes, I feel any government will not be/ fur from Utopia.

HELPS SOLDIERS TO FIND JOBS Bureau in Chicago Shows Good Record in Helping Dis- eharged Men, PLANNED BY GENERAL WOOD Of the Men Seeking Employment 94.3 Per Cent Have Found It Through the Inetrumentality of the Bureau. Chicago.—From a report just issued by the bureau for returning soldiers and sailors and marines in this city, it Is possible to get adequate informa- tion concerning what has been done in belialf of those of our returned de- fenders who have sought employment and other aid, ~~ In..the district of which Chicago is the héadquarters, the plan of the bu- reau for giving assistance to dis- charged service nien was formed by Maj. Gen, Leonard Wood, who acts as the chairman of the headquarters com- ‘mittee, and who from the first has takem personal interest in the work. The bureau was established last April and its records today show that 43,34 service men have registayed at head- quarters, Of this number asked for tissistance in obtaining employ- ment. At the present time the fil of the bureau show that only 2,250 men still vemain on the “not hired” list. ‘This means that 94.3 per cent of the men seeking employment have found it through the instrumentality of the bureau. Rumors Are Refuted. There have been rumors which some people have been busy in passing along to the effect that bureaus for aiding the soldiers and saifors to get re-established in civil life were not do- ing adequate work. To a considerable extent this sort of thing, it is sald, has been propaganda for no good pur- pose. So far as the district which has Chicago for its headquarters Is con- cerned, the attested records which show that 94.8 per cent of the appli- eants have found work, speak for themselves. In.the daily life of the bureau there is much to be found of human interest. Of the 48,345 men who registered about 8,000 asked for assistance along lines other than that of employment. They wanted to secure vocational training, to be given information con- cerning educational work, and in some cases there were requests for clothing and for temporary loans, Every case was met. Out of the great number of men who applied atthe bureau only 438 actually needed food. Between 3,000 and 4,000 of the men did not know how to secure their bonuses from the government. Eyery man was told how to go at it and every man got his money. Of the applicanis for as- sistance 3,500 have entered courses of vocational training. Much of Interest. The activities of the bureau as they have gone on day by day are interest- ing to watclt, From the returned sol- diers and saflors one gets the after-; the-war viewpoint. The comments on} the war and its aftermath and the conclusions which the men have drawn show almost invariably thoughtful consideration of the problems involved. Col.

Goods now in the market in Belgium are often typically German. They are supposed to have been introduced se- cretly Into the country via neutrals such as Holland and the Scandinavian countries. - One outstanding feature of these goods, however, is the disappearance of the German trademark, but the German cunning does not halt at this. The imperial crowns are now replaced by American eagles in-an attempt to make the goods pass off as American, while others bear British and French trademarks. The names of German firms are completely absent, but the manufacture is too typically German to. go undetected. Bees Raid a Jam Factory. Syracuse, N. ¥.—While Norris 8. Dailey was removing honey from the hives at his apfarles on his farm in Penn Yan, a village a few miles from this city, he discovered that the swect was pink in color. Upon investigation he found that instead of honey, it was raspberry jam. The bees had carried the jam from a preserving plant about a mile from the Datléy farm. The seeds were absent from the jam. Swarms of bees and hornets have in- yaded the plant several times this sum- mér, driving the operators out of the factory and carrying the jem from Omaha; Nebr.t—‘As a special tonic I have taken Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre: tion and found it to give almost immediate relief in cases of nervousness or a weakened or run-down condition.
