NO TIME FOR POLITICS.

The ftelnocratfc leaders so contfticted themselves in their state convention Just closed as to strengthen public confidence in their position that this is aot time for politics, and that there }i should b© no side features to deprive j't war work of the unified r.nd alert publie interest of the state and nation. The attitude of the party in this state might well be emulated in every state of the union. It would be & notice to the world of the co-ordination of our peopla, and, too, of our outstanding determination to allow no internal comj. plications to detract from our will to win the war. No state convention in the history of the party was ever freer from partisanism. The nation, from

i-

President Wilson down to the most inconspicuous citizen, can sense the U', patriotic purpose of the party and its freedom from such dubious diversions as "constructive criticism" and other pro-German diversions like misleading labels. The war position of the party is a clarion call for the honest and genuine effort of every citizen of the state to bring about an early and de-

reflects the appreciation of the manhood of the state for the Justice in woman's claim for suffrage, and declares Itg support for' either state action or the federal amendment.

As to the domestic issues, the party non-Slavio elements and throw the dual monarchy into a state of utter chaos. An impressive victory in Italy might serve to brace the waning loyalty of the non-Slavs, and thus postpone Hapsburgism's day of reckoning.

The liquor issue is allowed to rest. It has been bodily lifted out of the realm of state issues. War work complications have made it a federal proposition,' and some interesting angles thereby have been created/ But yesterday Bainbridge Colby, one of the foremost thinkers in the nation, and a man to whom no bias could possibly be attributed, appealed to the war board to permit of the use of light wines and beers hi "the ship yards of the country, saying that if these workers were deprived of beer and light win* $ the output of the shipping yards would be reduced twenty-five per cent. We do not know what Mr. Colby's particular premise, is,' but recently news items have appeared to the effect that number' of" great industries have asked special exemption so their workers could have wine and beef. Thousands of workers in these Industries hold beer and wine, not as a stimulant, but as food and drink and refreshment. The question has gone beyond a political issue* It has passed into the state of being an economic question, and its study involves more than the mere statement of agitators on either side.

The position of the democratic state convention indicates that this was understood, that it was realized that the question has become one for the federal custodians of the people's interests to dispose of, and concurring therein, the convention seems to have acted wisely." As a whole, the "work of the party leaders can commend itself to the favorable consideration citizens generally.

OUR ALLIES.

Today's war dispatches confirm the hope that the Italians will be able to hold the Austrian drive. Hitherto it has been held that political conditions in Austria have compelled the postponement of the drive. Now it is as serted that political conditions have precipitated 4he offensive. The two statements are not as contradictory as they appear.- The disloyalty and almost open revolt of the Slavic Aus« trians, especially the Cechs, have required the presence in Austria of large military forces^ Now it is held that the unrest of the German Austrians and of the MagyaSrs has also become menacing, and that peace demonstrations have been common In the cities least affected by Slavic sentiment. A victory in the field which could be exploited as advancing peace might appease the elements which are naturally most loyal to Hapsburgism and on which the government must rely for its support. •'&

The Italians and their French and British allies are meeting the Austrian attack with determination and with no sign of distress. As yet the surprise element has been lacking. It is impossible to foresee what Austria has in store, but there is good reason to hope for an Italian victory which must have

The Red Cross wants registered nurses for three important fields of war activity for nursing overseas, for work In military hospitals p.nd cantonments and for teaching, la.„nurses' training schools and for public health work here. After enrollment for war service, the Red Cross will assign the nurses to one of these three fields, according to the fitness of each.

To the registered nurses, this call of country comes precisely as it comes to their brothers and husbands—a call for service of the highest usefulness to America, to America's allies and to humanity. The nurse who goes to the front or remains in war work at home is in the same fight as the man'who shoulders a rifle or hurls a hand grenade. This is not a man's war the call Is for all of us to serve as best we can.

Entire responsibility for results, so far as the enrollment of nurses is concerned, does not rest with the nurses entirely, however^ The public is responsible, in part and, in gome cases perhaps, the doctors,

Too many trained nurses are retained in positions which jlQ not require them. Sometimes a trained nurse is retained in a case beyond. its critical period, when a nurse of another grade could do the work satisfactory. Every registered nurse who is kept for mere convenience as a companion or a nursery maid means one capable womah kept out of the service of her country &t its greatest crisif It is a responsibility th»t few Americans will care to assume.

Graduates from1 thfs year's training schools for nurses owe it to their country to enroll at the first opportunity, in the same spirit of devotion thai im^ pels so many thousands of men graduates from high schools and colleges to enter their country's service at once.

stamps is an-- activity for children that boys and girls are expected to buy, but not men and women. Yet the purchase of $2,(K)0,0Q0,QQ(|. in stamps is scarcely a child's game. It is a game for all to play, and dne not to be successful unless everyone puts forth his very best effort.

June 28—one week from frlday—has been fixed upon as national pledge day in the stamp campaign. JBy that time, it is desired that everyone shall have made definite promise to save to the utmost of his ability for the rest of the year and to invest the resultant savings in War Stamps. Pledges are to be signed for .weekly or monthly payments.

With the same patriotic zeal that has marked previous efforts in this city to raise money for war purposes, it is expected that the community will respond with pledges amply liberal to represent interest in the great conflict.-

President Wilson voices the country's appeal when he asks "every man, woman and child to pledge themselves, on or before June 28, to save constantly and buy as regularly as possible the securities, of the government, and to do this, so far as possible, through membership in the war savings societies,*

Congress asked the country to tuy $2,000,000,000 In stamps during the present year. Terre Haute has lagged. The year is nearly half gone, and, if the city's quota is to be filled, the last six months of 1918 must see much greater activity.

This is a doubtful and menacing day, according to astrology. Venus and Uranus are adverse, but late in the evening Mars is friendly.

It is a rule most sinister for lovers and romance. There is a sign making for hasty attractions, impulsive decisions and severe disappointment.

It is not a lucky sway for theatrical affairs and there is a forecast of changes among managers.

Hotelkeepers and restaurant owners come under a government of the stars indicating reduced profits. This applies especially to cities where summer colonies assemble.

Uranus is in a place said to be most encouraging for deceit and treachery. New dangers from spies seem to be presaged by the stars.

Mars gives promise of better conditions for American arms. This should be a fortunate government of the stars for military activities.

The planets apparently give warning that a man of great wealth will encourage sedition in the United States involving persons Of American as well as foreign blood.

Strikes and riots are foreshadowed in every reading of the stars and the seers predict the conscription of labor. This will include women as well as men, it is prophesied.

Severe storms, especially those accompanied by wind and lightning, are indicated for the summer months.

Women have a leading during this configuration that is held to presage dissensions among leaders in public work, hitter rivalries and much discredit. s

The elimination of selfishness is counseled as there are influences that incline men and women to crave power and money in time of national stress.

Persons whose birthdate it is should attend strictly to business. They may have anxiety in the domestic circle.

Children born on this day are likely to be clever and industrious, active and ^enterprising.

telegram from Herbert Hoover, received today by John H. Ahlgren, federal food administrator for Vigo county for guidance in reference to the new beef conservation regulations. The suggestions apply to hotels, and PUUUc eating houses. ... .. "We do not wish any advertising, either by the food administration or by hotels, restaurants or public eating houses as to the days or the rpu'tine in which this service proceeds, for it would focus attention of customers on these days and thus increase the consumption of beef," continues .' Mr. Hoover's instruction*. "Every patriotic public eating place Is expected to comply at once on a voluntary basis. In case of violations the food administrators will give notice to the public and to all dealers to stop supplies, and any licensed dealer who does not comply to such notice, directly or indirectly, shall have his license withdrawn." "It is clear from the above,", added Mr. Ahlgren, "that the responsibility for the enforcement of the. beer regulations rests directly with the dealers. We shall expect them to assist us In effecting the necessary co-oper-ation with the hotels and public fating establishments, and in view of the fact that their failure so to do puts their licenses in jeopardy, we do not

In case of working people where the more nourishing beef be preferred at noon, the change may be made without increasing the portions, which the food administration has limited to a maximum IV# pounds {MMt pcrsoft per week.
