My These words s " war for all we've got raised forth the realization that we're in the with all we’ve got. To be sure, the » president stated that he is ready to discuss a just and honest s e, but none of the other fighting nations is, besides, the a ‘president is evidently convinced that the samples of peace a iven by Germany to Russia, Rumania and Ukraine prove t the German government is incapable of fair and honest The president has in reality delivered a war-cry for his country. The American people must get out of their system any particle of expectation or desire of peace, save the | peace that is to be got by hting for it. To develop and @pply our utmost war force, without stint or limit, is our exclusive duty and business. i Every business concern has got to adjust itself to the demands of war busine Every individual, every Arou hold has got to make contribution to the national war fore its immediate and chief concer The sooner these things are done, the sooner will the ' the labor that has got to be performed. There is no other way out of it, and our European allies, as well as our own people, are indebted to President Wilson for a war speech drives all peace hypocrites into their holes, to stay e until the finish, while true patriots sacrifice and fight freedom’s sake.

Ten dollars a day i not hold men in some places. The things of life that worth while make the strongest appeal to the man. Mr. Ford has the secret of satisfied labor and, if all ch different and better America. mest, persistent striving for a little bit more than he ady had. Of capital and labor, the latter is the greater and its onsibility is the greater. Human-machine labor, labor ~ with uit aspiration for the things of life worth while, ' without something better to hope for in the future, means it is labor’s insistent obligation to se of human machines. The great war work that Mr. Ford's industrial army rforming is admirable, but, in the final analysis, it is a fundamental duty of labor. It is but labor’s ful fillment of its obligation to beat back an autocragy which id ‘make all laborers but human machines, without ope of the things of life that are worth while. sa Mr. Ford is one of the greatest liberators of our times. He~ts demonstrating to capitalism, by his growing ‘bank balances, that it is most profitable that the wage- ‘@arner be eager for and have the things of life that are o while. All of our industrial problems are locked “up in that proposition. ements, and hence ight against the incr Secretary McAdoo wonld put Berlin in the center of a circle formed by American troops. But he's not saying whee he'd put the kaiser and his murdering sons. ‘Let’s All Keep Up Seattle shipbuilders today did more than establish a Mew construction record, when they launched a great steel » carrier 55 days after laying the keel. 3 They set a war-work pace for the whole community. It’s not enough for this city to lead in shipbuilding. Blessed with a climate that generates energy, and the lowest illiteracy percentage of any other community in the nation, Seattle must charge ahead on every war call. The man who does not eagerly, and generously do his share toward financing the war a discredit to the city— and her shipbuilders. And so is every other half-hearted war work Speaking of contempt and the traction company, how about the feeling of Kinnear park people toward the car service they get? “Im Vaterland” Again A few months ago, when The Star discovered that S attle high school students were absorbing German Kultur from the text book “Im Vaterland,” the school board re- lentlessly shelved it, saying “there is nothing really wrong” with the book. Members took the attitude that “Im Vater- land” was made a martyr to hasty criticism. It is interesting to note that the Literary He this week’s issue, says: “‘Im Vaterland’ has most reprobation of any German textbook ractically shelved in a nation-wide disgust. @ book does not omit to employ propagandist assertions that have served Germany since the outbreak of the war.” Digest, in ived the been * A two-pound loaf of bread costs $5 and a pound of butter $25 in Constantinople. We don’t know whether the restaurants serve bread and butter free or not. Germany's last sauerkraut crop was made of tur- nips. Anyway you have to admit that the Germans are ingenious. They found a way to spoil a turnip. Next they'll be showing the world how to spoil a rotten egg. And we expect to hear some day that they're making porterhouse steak out of pigs’ feet. ree) Great day for school kids Friday!
