True, the road has not always been an easy one, and neither is it now. S = UNCLEa (Tests recently made by the Government with ice creams of various grades demonstrated a preference gen- era”y for those {)roducts which contained the ’n‘g’ler per= centages of cream (butterfat), sugar and other constituents of ice cream.) (These experiments were made with a imited “market” * of approximately 50 people, and indicated as well a marked p.reference for ice creams that included a percentage of gelatin in their composition as against those whick did not.)

If there are citizens in this country who are un-American they should be deprived of all rights of citizenship and put behind bars so that they can - do no harm. If there are those With- @ in our borders who are not natural- jzed and who have shown themselves o be disloyal they should be put on he very first boat that salls and sent ack to the countries from which they came. It must be recognized by dne and all, now and always, that this is loval, free America. ““We have a sacred duty to perform— one country to love, one flag to defend.

Story Discredited. The story of a German attempt to disable the Leviathan, then the Vater- land, on February 3, 1917, when Amer- ica appeared to be drifting toward war with the central powers, today was re- called by the declaration of F. H. Gibbs of Gibbs Bros., who reconditioned the glant liner, that damage at that time was the result of an accident. Mr. Gibbs, whose engineering com- pany refitted the Leviathan, charac- terized as false the story circulated at the time that the German crew of the Vaterland deliberately had injured her ~mechanism and disassembled her parts 80 as to render her unfit for service as @n American transport. Mishap in Docking. Damage to the vessel, he said, had later been found to have been the Yesult of a mishap in docking the Vaterland on her last trip to this untry under the German flag in 14. This left her' with several roken turbine blades and other dam- jged parts. Efforts of German en- ineers to repalr the damages made atters worse, while, he asserted, embers of the crew in occupying the jessel during the long period of in- rnment also had caused other minor amage. ‘When the broken parts were dfs- overed, he asserted, credence was iven to the story that the Germans d attempted to cripple the ship ree months before she was seized y the American government.
