If You Think THE TIMES Is Doing Its Bit Your Support Is Always Welcome.

USING DIPLOMACY ON THE JAPS. President Wilson's order placing an embargo on the shipment out of this country of steel and other exports except under license and then only for the purposes of war probably will have its chief effects in Japan. For some time the Japs have been buying great quantities of steel ship plates in this country. Lately they have been getting half of the total production. The wily Jans, seems the allies' merchant shipping subjected to great damages by ihe U-boats, have becun building merchant ships on a broad scale. They dream of having a great merchant marine, of dominating the Pacific trade and even tnrting quite a future figure in the Atlantic. So, they bought plates and disregarded the fact that the steel companies In this ccun'ry held them up right and left with unheard of prices. Yet you can figure that whatever the steel concerns have extorted out o the Japs now they will squeeze tenfold from all Americans later cmMr. Wilson's order will interrupt the Japanese program- It. will also serve to force them to send ships into the Atlantic where they are sorely needed or get no more steel (and Japan produces very little steel t, while the embargo is made so that, it does not discriminate against Japan by specifying that all licensed exports for war purposes only in the long run It has an effect that is beneficial to usAs far as diplomacy is concerned, American can play the game, too.

STALLING OFF THE GARY LAKE FRONT PARK? It Is significant that when Mayor Johnson presented his message to the Gary park board the other night asking that 40 and 1V acres, respectively, of Gary's seven miles of lake frontage, from which the people are now barred, be given over to park-bathing beach purposes, that the president of the board. W- P. Gleason, sugeested in a counter message that a great rark be located in the Lit'le Calumet marsh. Is Gleason's plan a staller? Is it, one to stave off the desire of the people of Gary to get a bit of their lake frontage for a beach or two? Mr. Gleason besides being park commissioner is also general superintendent of the Gary steel plant and has dominated the park boardWhy does the steel official suddenly want, an inland park that will cost hundreds of thousand's of dollars to buy and improve just when -the people move to get a small portion of their water frontage, owned by the

steel trust? In no other city along Lake Michigan are the people barrel.

from their water front. Superintendent Gleason explained that the stee! corporation has need of the entire frontage for its own use, its own mills, coke, coa! and ore piles. He pointed out that Gary lives on the steel industry. True it does. But when an American community has had sacrificed its inherent privileges, the rights and health cf its people, its civic birthright merely because seme magnates In distant Wall st-eet ruthlessly consider that dividends and war profls will be quicker if so many million tons of ore and coal are placed on the water front instead cf letting human beings there, it is time to wake up and be an American community. Grant industry all that it is entitled to, but at least te American enoiurh to tell industry that its d;vi dend-exacting plans mun not nbridee the humanity rights of men, women and children. Of course. Gary sprang Into heing because of the siee; mills, but that .does not give the steel corporation the right U usurp the civic functions of the city. Vet ps present r.iar.asentent not only seerns to have that idea, but some of its eager underlings apparently have the impression that they also dominate the political rights of the workmen of Gary, and anyone who remembers the episode of th numbered voting slips that came Into the possession of the workmen on city primary election day will vividly rail this to mindIf Mr. Gleason is act In? in the interests of the people let him withdraw his confusing and issue-muddling park sop at this time- It smacks of Wall street's counter move. And if seme of the Gary park board commissioiers cannot serve the. people It is up to Mr. Johnson to demand their resigr,atlonsand get a park beard that will- The people expect this much of their mayor.

WHEN Mr. Edison sets through figuring out the great invention to aown the U-boats will he please take steps to provide a means of caus ir.g the instant cassin? at a dictance of any motorcyclist who opens muf for at midnight to awaken folks?

IT must be the areat regret of the kaiser that there are no more Poles. Felgians or Serbians to kill just as it must be of some of the eminen steel and coa! magnates in this country that we have no more allies thev can rob with high prices or that, this country hasn't 200,000,000 instead of lOiVfl'',0!-o pe-'e to flee-e.tt

ALL we have to request about the home guard is that no one inflict that awful name "Sammies" upon the men willing to give their time n tli3 work.

The new sport materia's, such as poplin. ! kfcaki-kool and other popular weaves, j i need a simple design like No. 5,434 to show their gay patterns to good advan- j i tape. The long vraisted effect is a style j which is becoming to the majority of j women, especially when it is modified by j a belt. The Dutch neck and side closing are splendid style features. One may ! choose either the long or short sleeves, r.n both styles are considered good this sea- j

son. A three pored skirt is attached to the long waisted upper section and the pockets are cleverly made 'ir slashing the skirt, tumins back the edges and facing them. The dress pattern. No. 8.434, is cut m sixes 36 to 44 inches bust measure. The Zd inch size requires 5l4 yards of SO inch material, with yard of 3G inch contrasting goods. To obtain tliis pattern send 10 cents tj the office of this publication.
