A move which has been made none too soon is that directed against a band of get-rich-quiek profiteers who Have apparently been carrying on a very profitable business of securing contracts for the production of war material of one kind or another and then turning them over to manufac- turers at a figure which net them a high rate on the total amount in- volved. It is of course apparent that all contracts have not been put out un- der such methods for it is preposter- cus to think that it weuld be possi- ble for any such elique to get so com- pletely in touch with those who award the government coptracts that they could exact any such price. It in- volves a business transaction in which re ought not to be any such mid- dlemen? The country has met all the de- mands of the government for funds to carry on the war. It has done so} with the expectation that the money will be used to the best advantage, that wastes will be eliminated so far as possible and that the great big profits will be prevented. Large ex- penditures have been made and still larger ones are to be anticipated. If there is any crocked business in con- nection with these contracts, or if there are those who are raking off a profit to which they are not enti- tled it is high time that it was known, and a stop put to it which wil! end it for all time, and if the iaw has been violated those who have been caught in the net should bg made an exam- ple of. It is time to realize that the cbuntry is not making its big sacrifices fér the purpose of making overnight millionaires of a handfu! of tricksters, UNTIDY STREETS. When it comes to keeping the ap- pearance of city streets what it should be it cannot fail to be recognized that much responsibility rests upon the shoulders of the individuals. The lit- tér which accumlates in tRem daily is throwh there, not as the result of the use of the street in the conduct of business, but by the deliberate act of “those who pass. 1f for instance an individual has a ngwspaper for which he has no future uge, & paper bag from which the con- tents are gome, an empty tobacco can or bag, a wrapper from a purchase made in some store which has been opened on the way, a cigaretle con- tainer, a pasteboard hox which has served its purpose and is, no longer desired, an old letter or envelope, it hag become a habit.to throw them into the gutter. One piece of such ma- terial does not make a very big show- Ing but when evervone so inclined re- sdrts to such a practice it can be ap- preciated that the daily accumulation is considerable, and the result is that the streets of a city are quickly strewn with a most unattractive ar- ray of rubbish which detracts from what would otherwise be the good ap- pearance of the business streets. The contrast between the clean pavements which are presented in the morning and the same ones at night- | fall is marked, and the worst of it is that there is mo excuee for it, and it would not exist if those who are re- sponsible for it would do their part to ald in keeping them clean, It would require but little individual effort tol change this whole matter. SALVAGING SUNKEN SHIPS. It was anticipated that there would be great opportunities for salyage op- erations following the war to reegver much of the valuable material whielj has been sent to the bottom by the torpedoing of merchant ships, but from the report which comes from London it is evident that much val- uable work has already been dene in that direction and it is steadily in- creasing. This indicates the right sort of an attitude is heing shown re- rarding this problem, for the quicker such work can be done the easier will be the task and the greater will be the worth of the retrieved materlal. The salvage operations are of course carried §n with the same danger from submatine attack that merchant ships are subjected to, but the greater the experience the more proficient become the wo and the more effective the e This is clearly shown by che statement that up, to lest Decem- ber the ealvage department of the = ships, which represented the work of {wo years, In the five montha of the present yvear there have been 127 ships salvaged or néarly half'as many in less than one-quarter of the time that was previously required. This is unquestionably due to the develop- ments which have taken place in this Kind of work and the improved meth. vds, ‘while the activity in eombattin: the submarines has reduced the men- ace to such workers. The saving of such ships is important both from the standpoint of ships and material and is bound to have an impertant bear- ing upon the resuits of the subma- 1ine warfare. e CLAIMS "WHICH DO NOT CON- VINCE, In response to the allegations which have been made regarding the treat- ment of American prisoners in Ger- many, there comes from Berlin a de- nial of the charges and the claim that they are being treated humanely and strictly in aecord with international law. We wished that this might be be- lieved and .that the Americans who have fallen into the clutches of the Germans are getting the kind of treat- ment which prisoners of war have a right to expect, but something more than the statement from a semi-offi- cial Beriin newsg bureaw will be neces- sary to convince. There is as yet no reason tc helieve that the charges are untrue, Germany has declared that American war rrisoners would be treated like all others. It is a pretty well established fact that that coun- try has been inflicting all kinds of hardships upon the prisoners of other enemy countries, that it has failed to give them decent food, that they are beaten, kept under conditions which are expected to break = down their health and handled worse than cattle should be. It is likewise known that eq1 harsh .treatment has been given to.the ecivilian ‘populations of northern France and Relgium, the people of which seetions have been made to engage not only in industrial nperations which were 2aiding the war but actually to do work in the trenches where they would be subject to shot and shell, We wish it was so that we might believe what the Berlin repart claims, hut the entire conduct of Germany has been just the opposite to such an ex- tent that it bears out in all respects the charges which arée made regard- ‘ng priseners. WHERE EASTERN FORCES CAN HELP, Ingications point to the fact that it is not likely to be long hefore some move is made which will see Japan taking a larger part in the war, and that there will be conceried action from the east in which all the allied nations will be invoived for the giv- ing of gzreater protection to Russia and establishing a new front for Cier- many to defend. When, where and how this inove will develop is still unknown. It is possible that ne actual decision has heen made in regard to it but in- creased \ thought is being given to it and it canrot fail to be recognized that the quicker it can be definitely determined and |steps taken ihe great- er will be the results and the quicker will a change be brought about in the existing situation. It is to be expected that Japan and China, because of their geographical location, will furnish the bulk of such an army, The complicated con- ditions in Russia have furnished the reasons for deferred action, The call has been for the segding of an army of intervention throdgh Siberia. This has been opposed beeause of the fear of resentment by certain Russian fac- tions and the desire to avoid the sim- ilarity ‘'of- German methods, but it must be evident that it i still pos- sible to employ a large force of Jap- anese or Chinese in giving assistance to the British army which has moved up the Tigris. By striking in that di- vection the Turks could be made even more helpless than they are and by moving northward into Transcaucasin and southeastern Russia a s2rious blow would be administered to the German scheme of conirelling the very valuable provinces from which they hope to draw important supplies. The importance of such a blow ought not to be overlooked. B EDITORIAL NOTES. It is perfectly apparent in connee- tion with war work that tHere is very little service rendered by those who eit and wait. B With American treops In Alsace there is another section of the line to which the Germans will have to give special attention. More than one prominent German has found that it ien't comducive to good health and peaee of mind to tell the truth in Germany. ‘The man on the corner says: Some people will kick if the coneervation movement extends to the elimination of the bands on ecigars. Any setback which the Austrians have eustained ought to be promptly overcome now that Emperor Charles has arrived at the front, Troubles in Austria and Bulgaria have been reported before. They wili not win the war but there is no doubt but what they can help. It isn't too early to make up your mind that you are golng to give the thrift and war savings stamp sales just as big a boost as possible. Perhaps the idea in having Henry Ford run for congress is to increase the speed of the senate machinery by | some new fangled gasoline motive power. There is nothing in the Austriam of- fensive thus far - which gives any promise of bringing back the recalei- trant factions in the dual monarchy to the fold. When it comes to wasting a lot of time getting names fer a thousand new merchant ships, the suggestion of numbering them, the same as locomo- tives, isn’t half bad. Jeremiah O'Leary has been caught in the far west and the very fact that he ran away is not going te help what- ever defense he may have to offér in response to the charge of sedition. Our health inspector has been named and working under the direc- tion of our health officer he ought to accomplish much. Certainly it is an’ {was not planning to put into action 4 which is published in a Weekly Dis-~ investment in behalf of the health of the communpity which ought te pay biz dividends. ‘While ex-Governor Hughes at the president’s direction is Investigating what our wircraft manufacturers have not done, it is encouraging notice what has been accomplisned. Over five thousand planes of all types have been completed and Gen, Pershing's army has over three 'hundred fight- ing planes apart from thrice that num- ber of planes for training aviators. Of our 62000 flying officers, 1500 were abroad by the first of May. No longer is it being said that the Americans in the trenches are unprotected overhead, for daily reports tell of constant aerial activity both in observation and ag- gressive fighting. Though the Ger- man’ rulers may conceal unfavorable news from without, thousands of mes- sengers will soon be distributing it from the skies for two hundred miles behind the battle line, and that too news of a most incendiary character, The United States has already ship- ped 800,000 men overseas. By the first of July the number will have bgen raised to a million, which fact gives some idea of the present rate of ship- ment. §00.000 men means about a half million soldiers availabie for fight- ing. exclusive of engineer, transport- ation and medical corps. This torce should nearly replace the Allies' losses incurred in meeting the German offen- sive. The French publish no casualty lists, but the British list have run to 40000 in the worst of the last twelve weeks. As the british and Krench fronts have in general not been as- saulted simultaneously, and reckoning the Krench losses as equal to the British, a rough approximation of the total allied casuaities would be 43! 900. way to be made up by the ever-in- creasing tide of Americans.

Each American force on the long battle line tukes especial pride in its own position. At Lanugny they have hammered in the ve nose of the Montdidier salient and have held their ground in the face of repeated saults.

In Lorraine where the first American prisoners were taken. | the Yankee troops had the honor tilt recently of being nearest to German | territory facing the great German fort- | ress of Metz. Most recently of all Americans have been stationed in Al- sace on what was actually German soil at the beginning of the war. Their position is just east of Belfort the French fortress nearest to the Swise border. This region has long been quiet, being rather lightly held by in- ferior forces while the first class troops have been fighting it out many miles to the north. Here the country has almost the aspect of peaceful times, for the Germans have refrained ! from destroying a region which they | lock upon as their own. | As the fighting in France slackened | and resumed the character of raiding the enemy’s lines, the Austrians began | a furious attack on the Italian front| for ninety miles from the Asiago plateau to the Adriatic. Great miasses of troops were hurled at the Italian positions in true German fashion, and small detachments succeeded in cross- ing the Plave river in three places. The entire defensive line, comprising | Prench and British troops as well as| Italian has put up a stalwart fight.| The forward pesitions in the mountain part of the line have been won back and many Austrians have been taken prisoners, while along the river two | out of the three contingents that suc- ceeded in crossing were hurled back or destroyed. The offensive seems to have come to a standstill after the Austr- ians have used up half their available forces. % v The fourth great German attack was more furious and shorter-lived than any of the first three. The drive| for Amiens which started on March 21, lasted all told over two weeks, or| until April 6. Then followed the-at- tack at Armentieres and the fall of the Messines ridge positions and Mt. Kemmel. These operations took the Germans about the same length of time; April 9 to 26. Third came the southward drive across the Aisne. This was the easiest of all for the offensive, because Gen. Foeh seeing the Chemin | des Dames overrun and the Aisne crossed the second day, withdrew be- hind the Marne so as to meet the drive was stopped by a series of ac- tions among which was the brilliant stroke by the American marines the attack shifted to the Noyon-Montdid- ier line where its force was spent in five days with such losses on the Ger- man side as will stagger the future historian. 400,000 men are said to have been given by the Germans in this latest and most futile of their ef- forts.

She kept busy all the morning and was out all the afternoon and it was 7 o'elock when she sat down before the fire and proceeded to cast her lines in the waters of meditation. But somehow the fish wayld not come to her net, but what did come were the sounds of strange creakings in the Staircase and queer noises on the roof. Did burglara ever come in by the way of the roof?

The evening of the third day arrived and still the stairs creaked and the acerns dropped, and still the water of meditation grew more shallow and: muddy. On the evening of the third day, just as- the Penflelds were getting ready to retire a low knock was heard at the porch door and a pale face was seen peering in upon the family group. “1 just came over to gee if I could| thing to make a noise with in case—" “In case the squirrels came through the roof?" sympathized Mrs. Penfield “Don’t you think that you had. betts take the guest room’ tonight? ready—" “Oh well if you insist upon it,"” an- swered Mrs. Filbert, “but don't tell] Guy that T deserted.” i However, she told him about it her- | self a week later and was relieved when his only reply was: “Well I guess the waters of meditation are considerably like those at Lake Tama- rack, all fished out.”—Exchange. 0od.

They therefore determined to take the bull; bert (dreadnought) and as the com mander of that ship tried high-handed { police measures he was shot down.

Gen- eral Pershing himself has speken of the necessity for good regimental bands as aids to the morale of our troops at the frent, and the famous French priest, Chanoine Cabanel, has described the wonderful power of music in curing men who have suffered shell-shock. With these patienfs both severity and gentleness were tried in vain, only music was able to bring re- lief. Such renowned fighters as the Scoteh have made a practice of geing into actien with their pipers to play them on, Yet our War Department has 2s yet made no provision to increase the size of regimental bands in pro- portion to the increased size of regi- ments, nor to provide skilled band leaders. Muysic is a direet ajd to.vic- tory, and good music is really a mb- nition of war. “1zether recently to play as a divisional | United States troops through London. ! music for this parade was furnished | iby the bands of two British regiments, , who was, until the time of | ynient with the army a mem- | of the Boston Symphony Orcestra.

Our soldiers should have the morale which comes from the stimulus of good music on the day of battie, and whatever comfort it may bring during weary and homesick hours.

The grdener's greatest friend is the hoe, Without it he would be lost land with it he can do more to help his vegetables along than in any other way, says today's bulletin from the National War Garden Commission of Washington. The greatest discoveries are usually the simplest, after their truth is once irevealed. Nothinz has done more to further the science of farming than the discovery of the fact that if you keep stirring up the soil aroung a plant it grows and produces better. Therefore, there can ke no better ad- vice for the gardener than this: keep hoeing, hoe sonmle more and then some, Frequent hoeing will save| much water and is better for the plants.
