TIME TO CALL A HALT. if

President WUvon has not wdnted to intervene In Kusaia, Thia was made clear at the conference at the white house during the past few days on the UtiPNian subject, but It seems we must if we are roing to make our war operations effective.

Were the Germans to oontinue their present coarse of Russian exploitation without hindrance or opposition, any victory the allies might win in western ISurope would be ot relatively small value. It could not be decisive in the sense of deciding the war. If Germany were permitted to follow her policy of aggrandizement in the east Germany would win the war regardless of French, British, American or Italian .battle fleld triumphs in the weot.

It was for the conquest of the east that Germany planned and precipitated the war. Already Germany has won the Kalians and has established Mlttel Kuropa. Already Germany has subjugated Finland, Livonia, Esthonia, Poland, Lithuania and Ukrainia, those parts of the former Russian empire which were included in the ante-bellum territorial schemes of the Pan-Germans. Now, practically without let or hindrance, Germany is going even further than the Pan-German prophets planned or predicted. She hopes to bring all Russia under German sway. She is well on the way toward establishing her absolute domination over the vast realm, the resources of which would place her

beyond all dread of future lack of food or raw material. To stop the German advance before It is too late th* Versailles war council has decided in favor of immediate military Intervention in Russia. The allied governments, none of tlmm reluctantly, have admitted the necessity of action. Most reluctant of all was the government at Washington. As long aa there seemed to be the faintest hope of Rus sian regeneration from within President Wilson and his advisors withheld their consent to any form of military action.

This duty has come along with other things, and if American force is necessary to stop the rape of tho Russian people by the twin combination of Huns and Solsheviki, it will be provided.

tho other fellow." That there

is no emergency calling for drastic food oonservatlon orders. One of tho first questions facing a woman who is running a home is "Is food conservation worth while?"

Before giving tho answer let it be asked, "Is tho saving of human lives worth while?" *ls winning the war worth while?**

It it i«. then food conservation is worth while for the program of the United States food administration for saving food in American kitchens is the only way to save the lives of millions of people in Europe who miffht otherwise die of starvation.

Isn't this reason enough to pnt aside everything else We are doing at present, if it is necessary, rather than to say, "No, I can't follow the program of the food administration for the conservation of food. I'm too busy."

Just a half million more people have died ia the European countries from starvation and famine in this war than have been killed on the field of battle.

Is food saving worth while? Have you, Mrs. Housewife, time to help win the war?

THE DRAFT WORKERS.

Gen, Crowder'p request that the amendment to the armjr appropriation bill giving him the rank of lieutenant general be dropped implies no disdain of that honor.

His position is that if he Is to be honored for tho success of the selective draft, tho men who helped him must be recognised also. He points to the tact that 1S.OOO citlsens, aided by many lawyers and physicians, in the jurisdictions of the 6,000 boards, have la-

bored, with him, many of them without pay, and, thus far, have labored with little or nothing in the way of formal honor or recognition of any kind.

As matters now stand, thefcj hard work and self-sacrifice will not entitle them even to a bouquet on the little green mound that, on some future Memorial day, will mark where their mortal remains repose.

It is greatly to the general's credit that Ho prefers, for the present, to "stick around'' with his unnoticed and unJaonored assistants.

THE ONE

Had then) been a little mare coolness in the crowd, a less panicky rush of all bands to one side of the boat, a few moments' preparation in the way of potting on life preservers, there would be a different story to tsIL

Precautions taken now cannot bring back the dead, but they can make it possible to avoid repetitions of the disaster, which might occur on any steamer in the ejiccursion, trade. A good thing to know when olio joins such an excursion is tho location of the boats anil life preservers, which should be sufficient for all that can be legally carried on a single trip. Then, when the* unexpected happens, keep cool and use your head.

Had this been done on the Columbia, there would be le*s mourning in many Illinois homes today.

MENU FOR THE DAY.

The United States government might give some thought to instructing th® people in how to maintain themselves at a cost of SO cents a day for food. At once it will be objected that that would be straining for the impossible, or that it is unnecessary in these days of high wages. But neither objection possesses any force. Strong men, big eaters, are fed by the government itself at an expense of only 10 cents a meal, and not everybody is enjoying the high wages which under stress of war timfes have bten decreed for a portion of the working population salaried people are not sharing the war prosperity to the extent that others are, and they are very numerous.

An investigator at the internment camp for enemy aliens maintained by the government near Hot Springs, N. C.. pens a picture of 2,300 we^l- nourished and reasonably contented German prisoners whose "keep" costs our country just 51 cents a day apiece. Of the amount 30 cents represents the cost of food. That, of course, admits of no high living, but It sustains the kaiser's subjects whom we cannot af-ford-to have at large in a manner that receives the approval of the American conscience, which will not tolerate anything approaching the inhumane in oiir treatment of these dangerous enemies. Tt is better than the Germans deserve and much better than we can expect our men captured by the Huns to be treated In German prison camps. But when the war is over we shall have no regret* and because we have done right we shall be able without compunction to call the German authorities to account for tVifir neglect of war prisoners. Appreciating this, would it not be a wise thing for the government to manifest as much concern for the needy among our loyal citizenship as it does for the enemy involuntarily accepting our hospitality? The visitor to the Xorth Carolina camp omitted to tell what is the daily menu of the prisoners. We know it is good and wholrjsom#. Quite likely it would be impossible for the housewife to supply her table for so small a sum, but if Washington would tell her its secret she might profit by the information.

LESSON.

It looks like the verdict in the Illinois excursion disaster will be that it was an "act of God." Still one lesson stands out of tho whole grim affair.

The terrible loss of life in the sinking of the Columbia, between Peoria and Pekin, was dute in large measure to the panic which resulted when the boat struck a hidden obstruction. She was not far from the shore, and the current in tho Illinois river, as a rule, is not swift,

hard to

make the name sound like sarcasm.
