OUR COUNTRY'S VITAL NEED. Men with a quickened sense of rational responsibility, who will galvanize into immediate action those who consider this war incidental instead of crucial the better that every phase of it may be vigorously prosecuted regardless of their personal sacrifice.

NOW IS THE TIME TO BUY Xow is the time to buy Liberty Bond?, not tomorrow or next week. Buy them now! Answer the Nation's call quickly; don't wait till the last minute. Fo- those who were unable to subscribe to the first Liberty Bond issue th s second lore is axi opportunity to take advantage of an Investment that is bcth pru (liable and patriotic. Nothing could be safer, nothing could be better calculated to bring about a permanent peace with democracy triumphant. The war can be won only if the whole people support the aim of the government. The bonds will be issued in multiples of $50.00. A bond may be purchased for S5i $100, $150, $200, etc. You may buy on partial payments only a dollar down on each bond, if you wish. Any bank will take a subscription, without charge, and hold the bonds for you after they are issued. Each citizen must help as beet he can, and there is no better way than by investing in the securities issued Iy his nation, pledged to make the world .'.:fe for democracy! You think this plea is bunkum, do you? VCf 'I just let Germany win this war and you will cough up, gentle reader, ! -;s tae vernacular, a lot more than you would if you bought Liberty Bond? a 1 -r. times. J tick a pin then.

THE COAL STTTTATIOX. Thn Liack Diamond is the official organ of the coal industrj. so its obfer; -.'.luiis on the present uirion are of material interest. In its issue l.i ".t Saturday it offers the following statement of conditions: "The market is in chaos as a result of a discovery that the supply is not "oins: to equal :Ue drr..r.'J in 'any section of tho country. Buyers arc coin;: el in vigorously for coal. "The national coal market is face to face with the fact that the demand for this year is going to be in exec's of any possible supply, and consumers are confront rg" the even more serious fact that some of them are g'ir.g ;o lie 1-f t without full supplies of coal. The country is facing a i)viior that is resulting in a lively scramtle as between coal buyers fo de;rri;i:r,s which of many contestants shall be allowed to get a full or even a r.'ir'ii supply of coal. "TI foui-'ry this v.-f ek is in the firs: ls ge's of a c n-oquent r-adjustment. It is now apparent that th : retai' -s and f rnri - .-i-orot all be sup;;!ie', writr. all th-. coM th:y want. Un'il jorue u- ;;;1t : rroi . ii i n i,f coal lias : n made i -, -M such a tlii'ir is attempted, there is lively competition between these group of buyers. The factories are putting tip a pica to hc mr.riiy Board. The retailers are marking picas to that b ard and to Dr. Garfield for their supplies of coal. The operators in the meantime are trying to satisfy both a real struggle against a growing shortage of ears and even reatcr shortage of locomotives, and the possibility that a disaKitment over wages will tie up the transportation lines by a serious and protracted strike of the miners. "The one important thing confronting the country is the labor situn-ii'-n. It is known that the mines have been losing men steadily, first, to the army; second, to the cantonments, and third to the munitions plants Mill r-iiiroad shop?. These who remain aroalready so well paid that they h.-.ve no disposition to work long or hard, and if anything, are demanding n.oro pay. The operators must concede the latter demand or see further inro'dji made upon their working force. At the Fame time they know that to grant the demands will further decrease the e fficiency of 4.he miners unless son-. new spirit comes to animate the. working force. "T.ikiiii? everything into consideration, ! country fs in a d-perato position for coal, without any great relk-f in sight." Ftoplo seeai to have small appreciation of the coal plight and probably slnot until the first cold snap sets in. Coal dealers all over Lake County are much worried over the situation. Many have used up all their surplusage, fijev -er r ainelirption but believe that it will grow worse instead of better. 7 . r-r ' c-idit'-jn- .T" r.-r "-wspaper talk as many coal users are finding , r . r.j irore will t.ud out to their sorrow. The man who has a bfn full of coal is fortunate and users had better conserve. It is not going to be a nustion of how much cu will pay for coal but whether you will be able to get it lit any price.

drinking wine with the French soldiers. What are our prohibition friends Koing to do about it? America is the "Land of the Free." The United States Senate recently decided to prevent civilians from giving liquor to the Sammies while they are fighting to free the world from the Kaiser. However, alter a conference with members of the House, this clause was s:ricken out of the Army Bill, the final ruling making it an offense only for a person to sell liquor lo a soldier in uniform. American soldiers in uniform are new getting liquor in France and Knglend. The British drink ale and rum, the Germans beer and the French and Italians wine. Furthermore, nobody with a thimble full of brains can say thai the efficiency of the lighting forces has been lowered by liquor served in moderation. Many there are who believe that the American army itself will indirectly deal the final blow to the national prohibition movement when, after partaking of French wine and British rum, it beats the Hohenzollern steam roller into an insignificant atom of Deutsches Kultur.

MR. FEUER AND THE GARY CITY JAIL. Alderman Feuer told the Gary council on Monday night of the crowded conditions in the city jail. Mr. Feucr spoke in connection with the plea of the mayor and his cabinet for additional cd! rooms. Now what Mr. Feuer said concerning men being packed in jail like sardines in a box is only too true. Where it was intended to confine only twenty men there is an average of seventy-five or eighty lodged and under conditions hardly fit for human beings. Although disinfectants are constantly supplied it seems that vermin often gets the upper hand. Gary's jail, sanitary, built of concrete and steel is a decent place under ordinary conditions. But it was built when Gary was a city of 15,000, and today the population is 60,000. Yet what causes the jail to be overcrowded is the presence of so many federal prisoners. Within the past few months the United States secret service has arrested between 5"0 and COO persons in Gary, some for evading the registration law, others for dodging military service and still others in connection with sedition plots. The chief of policp has asked the government to relieve the congestion, but so far it has been obliged to keep the prisoners at Gary. That is the chief reason why the police cells are crowded and why conditions obtain that require for immediate enlargement. In passing it may be mentioned that more than a year ago the chief of police pointed out the need of a larger jail, but Ihe council of which Mr. Feu'T is a member took no action to heed the request. Had Mr. Feuer and his colk agues on 'he finance committee acted, the men who have nnd the men who are (nduring privations might have faced more decent conditions.

PEOPLE WILL DECIDE. "The election November 6 for mayor of Gary will be held in Gary and not in Hammond, the Tribune hastens to announce." Gary Tribune. For once we agree. We hasten to add that neither will it be in Wall street. The Hohonzolierns of Wall street will not gather around their little old mahogany table and say who thall be Gary's mayor this year.

SOME of the German soldiers say they are saving Frenchart. Well, that means they are saving it by stealing it and removing it to the Land of Kultur.

MY! how the years change people! How goody, goody and what great little "reformers" some of the eminent 'Gary gentlemen who gather around the political campaign table every day at the Commercial Club have become. When the public is presented with the past records of some of the "reformers' and what thy tolerated there will not be so much reforming." "IT begins to look like Congressman Helfin has begun to meditate on what a fine thing it is to be born dumb.

Unlimited production is not consistent with Dodge Brothers scrupulous methods of manufacture. They must always give to their car that over-care which the public expects from them. It is the root, and the source, and the reason for that steadiness of demand which has existed from the beginning. . They will never go beyond a production point which might place their reputation in jeopardy. It will pay you to visit us and examine this car. The gasoline consumption is unusually low. The tire mileage is unusually high. Touring Car or Roadster, $835; Winter Touring Car or Roadster, $1000; Sedan or Coupe, $1265. (All prices f. o. b. Detroit.)"
