The eity of Toledo has struck 12 so loud the whole country has heard it, in the new Toledo plan. The Safety Director has put snap into the municipal service by finding out what interest every man is tak- ing in the war, and if he is suppert- ing the government with his money. If any empleye is net, he must give a good reason for his omission. No man is require] to do mere than he is able to do; hut every man must show his lovalty by éoing something. The Toledo plan puts a spur upon patriotism. Patriotic inertia dis- closes a dead one; and if such a one| is spared he is assured that the first returned soldier wio warnts his job and ig capable of filling it shall have it This is not a system of persecution, hut a system to muke an end of pacifism in publie places.

Their losses in men are very great, the loss ef material in inealeulable. The acres of shells and the mountains of supplies necessary for the intended drive across the Marne, crowded as they were in the ten mile space be- tween the Vesle and the Ourcq, have been abandoped or destroyed. All are gone and while the German factories labor menth after month to replace them, the American troops will con- tinue to pour into France. Three hun- dred thousand were landed in July alone.

America since 20th century opened has found many things marked: “Made in Germany,” that it no longer questions that this s a wise business method. Now we are told “Made in Amer- ica” will be a slogan and purchasing guide most faithfully followe in this eountry afteh the war. Whether it is a paper of pins, pen knife, silk hat or carton of sugar, the purchaser will ook for the copyrighted trade mark brand for entification. Label, sealed carton, stamp or plate or whatever may be appropriately used to carry evidence of erizination, will be used wherever possible.” The Bulletin hopes this will prove to be true, sinee it cails for homor in the output of goods and loyalty in our relation to them. The interests of American produects against the advance in our midst of any German produci with its origi- nation cleverly concealed or merely lacking any evidence of German iden- tification, require concerted action ef this kind. Labelled or declared goads should then be in demand as never before.
