It is planmed to have the whole country thoroughly covered by solici- tors who will present the details of the campaign, explain the purpose and” what is expected of each and every individual. The people of the country are to be asked to pledge a fixed amount if they will but at least ee to save and invest as much as they can in this way for the purpose of helping the gpvernment. And while it means help to Uncle Sam it cannot be overlooked that it «is through the saving which it is heped 1o encourage, intended to act as the same time as the beginning of a habit which a great mamy Deople have not as yet cultivated. It has been truly saidtthat the war savings stamps supply the final and conclusive answer to tise question, “How can we all help?” Many, and it might be d almost everyone, have at some time expressed the wish that they could do more to aid in the war. Financial assistance is a vital need and the practice of thrift which will provide the two billion threugh war saving stamp purchases gives everyone a chance to remder some and in most cases increased assist- ance. The stamps, it is ta be remem- bered, are not gifts. They are gov- ernment securities and everyone chould aim to possess as many as possible. Everyone shopld help and this is the chance for everyone. AUSTRIA’S CRISIS. Indisations which have been go- ing from bad to worse for a long iime in Anstria appear to be reach- ing a climax which threatens muech more serious results than on any pre- ous occasion. What the outcome be cannot be told except that if t is impossible for Germany to bring about the relief which 15 demanded in the way of improved food rations Austria is likely to hecome a greater urden than it is a help. The amount of suffering and hard- ships which have been undergone by the peonic in that country is probably not fully realized by the outside worid. The clamors which have heen made for the securing of peace have had some foundation. The political onditions have at the same time been =rowing worse until the people in cer- tain ions are ready for a revolt wnd when there is added to these the fact that there canngt be secured *nough to eat there is presented a situation which threatens dire results. The terrible losses which have been suffered from the war have caused sreat uneasiness and with finaneial ruin staring the country in the face, the utter failure of the present offen- sive which has been launched has served to- add Yo the uneasiness and! inerease the demand for the ending! of the war and fhe restoratien of tol- blo living conditions. The erisis which Austria faces cannot be mini- mized and it remains to be seen whether Germany can continue te lash them into its support much long- The war having started .in Aus- tria it would certainly Le an excel- lent place to end it. Tt appears to be a direction in which the allies should strike and strike hard. ETTER TRANSPORTATION. The report which has been made by A, H. Smith, regional railroad direc- tor in the east, gives much encourage- ment to the belief that the solution of the transportation problems is fast being reached. According to his statement it is shown that there has been eliminated cver 2,200,000 miles of non-essential passenger irain mileage « month, that blast furnaces which were operating to only 57 per cent. of their capacity in Februaty are now furnishing a normal production be- cause transportation shortcomings have been remedied, that there has heen & large addition to the motive power of the roads” and that car shortage has been eliminated except for the open top type. This is improvement in the very di- ~~etiop that was needed.

The mem- bers of that ergapization are of course mow in the service of the government and the organization has ceased exist. There are others, who have takem the place of the na- tienal guard for the perfermance of the same duty which the national xuard performed and stand ready to look after the peace and welfare of the - commenwealth. Though not the Connecticut matjonal zuand they are kmown as the state guard and being ready and subject to call for duty as were the members of thé preceding organization they are entitled to similar considerations, one of which was the exemption from the rersonal tax. Inasmuch as there is no state law to cover their case, and it will be some time before a legislative ses- eion can take aetion thereom, it is not only proper but the very thing which communities should do where such organizations are located to see thet they are freed from this tax The very reason which existed for the exemption of the state proiectors in the past holds just as gzood for those of the present even though they may be organized under a slightly different name. THE ACTS AT TABRIZ. Demands have been increasing as the result of the development of con- ditions for the declaration of war by the United States against Turkey and Bulgaria, With the latter we still have unbroken relations but the diplo- matic r-présentatives of this country and Tuvkey were recailed over a vear ago. Because it was urged that more harm than good would result from the actual declaration of a state of war such a step has not been taken. Turkey hag been carrying on its mas- sacres but it has been felt that some restraint has been shown by Turkey relative 10 Amegicans and their rights and likewise to missionary efforts be- cause war did not really exist. Ithas been claimed that this would be quickly turned to resentment by in- cluding Turkey in the nations with which this country is at war and make it a stronger ally of Germany. The fact that Turkey has now sone into Persia, disregarding the rights of that country, seized and sacked the American hospital and the American consulate at Tabriz makes it evident, it the reports sre true, that what- ever restraint has been exercised In the past now amounts to little, that whatever reason there may have been in the past to refrain from a declzration of war has been pushed aside by this act of Turkey. It is not to be expected that action will be taken without first getting ail the facts in the case, but it at present appears to be a direct prowocation for war and 4if such is found to be the case there Should be no further de- lay. EDITORIAL NOTES. The man on the cornet says: This is eertainly great weather for catch- ing potato bugs, if nothing else. Turkey appears to be enduvoflng to hasten the action of this country regarding that declaration of war. If your garden doesn't please you there is always the opportunity of course of blaming it opto the weather- Toan. . 3 Americanism is being felt in Eu- rope. It will be feit more if full sup- port is given to the war saving stamp appeal. 4 ‘When General von Steinldeclares that the Americans are stationed on the quiet sections he refers to the past and not the future. The American destrovers have a better record for submarines thus far this year than the underwater boats bave for American ships. The same reasons exist for the pur- chase of thrift and war savings stamps as for buving Liberty bonds. In the case of the stamps. however, everybody can and should purchase. Though their war expenditures are jlarge it must be more or less grati- fying to the British to know, as point- ed out by Bonar Law, that the aetual are less than the estimated expenses. Chairman Hurley of the shipping hoard says that barges are to be built for the New England coal trade, It is to be hoped that the construction will not be delaved until the rivers are frozen solid, Bulgaria wants to know about that promise which Germany made to it about getting it a slice of . Greece. ‘Even Bulgaria ought to know by now not to put any dependence up- on German promises. Along with the other increases which are being granted, the quick passage of the appropriation to take care of the increased vensions for war veterans shows that the boys in blue are not being forgotten. 't may be of course that the war department has some greater service in mind for General Woed, even though he hae heen ordered back to Camp Funston, but that is what was said when he was named to fake charge of the department of the south- east after being demoted from the de- ! nartment of the east.
