1 Our government has succeeded in getting possession of one copy of the book which contains German; .-secret plans for monopolizing the world's trade afier ; the war. The plans for compelling a world which "'bates Germany" to trade witlvGermany and make her the first I commercial power of the world are w orked out as com

pletely as Bernhardl stated Germany's war plans. The treaty of peace must five Germany the right to purchasi a certain percentage of the raw material produced bj each of her present enemies. A "foreign brigade" of spies will report every im piovement of manufacturing processes to Ueiiin. Ever: German business will coLtiitute to a state fund wind will be u:-ed for driving competitors out of business bj underselling them. German workmen will be enllstet. for life in various industries. In short, this state pro gram for ruthless world commerce, as outlined by Herr Herzog, and exposed in the Auf ust World's Work by U V. Page, simply cannot be nitt by ordinary corporation: and business concerns. Herzog-'s book bears the harmless title of "The Fu ture of German Industrial Exports." The Germans have alreauy forced us to create a grea army in order to .vithstand theirs. Their trade plans, i put into practice, mill ruake it necessary for us to com pletely change our business organization. Then there is the question of German immigration We can look for an exodus from Germany that had th

The United States Demands an Unconditional Surrender.

AN. UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT. It is quite useless for state W. S. S. men to come U Lake county and criticize the sale of war savings and thrift stamps in Lake county. We are ail perfectly fa miliar with the fact that the county has so far faileo to buy its quota, but there is absolutely no one to blairu for the fiasco but the state W. S. S. officials and the bull headed management of the campaign. Ever since the campaign started those who have been at the head of it have gummed up the cards. One thing after another connected with the drive has gone wrong througt blunders by those who had it in charge. Last Friday's meeting was only another for instance. Lake count people are busily engaged in raising their quota for th? United War Work drive. The war work leaders have been trying to concentrate all the intensive psychology on the stupendous task that was possible. They had just secured a two million dollar oversubscription for tbe Liberty Loan in face of fake peace reports, and then took off their coats for the United War drive. The armistice signing threatened to take the minds of the people oft the need for subscribing and the workers re doubled their efforts to put it across. Yet in the middle of the week, the W. S. S. officials break in with a new meeting and a new appeal and things are at sixes and sevens again. Incident after incident of this nature can be recalled since tbe W. S. S. drive began and it seemr as If the officials of the drive might learn a few lessons Lake county enjoys a proud war record. No other county in the state can eclipse her, and if the W. S. S. drive had been properly taken care of Lake county would not face the deficit. Here is Lake county's great war record to date: Soldiers and sailors

U. withdrawal ot men from many lUe. cf work. j counlrirs. is industrial depression as a result of slue

gish readjustment. Every public and private undertaking abandoned on the outbreak of the war, or deferred by reason of the conflict, should be revived and resumec' without deiay. Whatever may be thought or said to the contrary

war work, properly so called, most soon be reduced tc the minimum; the manufacture of munitions, except U meet the normal army and navy demand, must soon cease altogether. There is no reason why any contract. for war vessels or merchantmen should be canceled; there is every reason why they should be carried out, and there are many reasons likewise why the governmen' should proceed with all contracts, even though incidental to the war, looking to permanent improvements in tlu interior as well as along the coasts; but when all is said the great impetus to industry occasioned by the splen did international enterprise in which the United States engaged in April, 1917, and which has now been brought with its assistance, to a successful and glorious close, will speedily subside. The trend of American thought and energy will now le turned immediately toward peaceful occupations and thi6 tendency should be given the freest possible flow. There should be no wholesale discharges from public or private plants. It should be regarded as a legitimate part of the cost of war to make the way toward peace as smooth as possible. Labor has proved its loyalty dur

ing the last nineteen months; it has made it possible for

the government to play a creditable part in the greatest struggle of all times for human liberty, and the rights of labor, among which the first and foremost is the right to work, should not be lost sight, of. What is needed is the acceptance by the nation of the practical view that there should be no peace slump that the people should be able to turn from war work to peaceful industry without delay and without friction. Economists have laid down the latv that there will be a period of industrial depression after a great war. With the knowledge and tremendous reserve resources at command, this so-called law should be disregarded or, at all events, overcome, in the United States. There will, of necessity, have to be readjustments, some of them of a trying character; but they can be met, as .the

war requirements were met, in a spirit of unselfish pat

riot ism

re mem

love of country and for love of right abandoned all other

opportunity in the United States during the contest in order to meet, in full measure, the most exacting duty f citizenship at a wage that they would spurn in civil life. An era of groat prosperity awaits the United States. Us coming, in full flood tide, can be delayed only by the railure of those who have undertakings on hand to press them without delay. The labor that will be thrown upon the country by the suspension of war work and the reduction of the army and navy to a peace basi3 should be absorbed quickly. There is so much to be done that, if thi3 task is carried forward promptly and intelligently, and, above all, with a view single to the common welfare, it will soon cease to be what it seems to some people to be today, a serious problem.

THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY PROGRAM. The republicans in the Indiana legislature this year are going to have a top-heavy majority and if the party does not map out and carry out a clean, t.ctive program its name will be Dennis two years from now. Governor Goodrich has indicated to the legislators at the Indianapolis meeting last week what he Is going to ask of the legislature and hi3 program is a splendid one. The republicans went before the people with a definite platform and they feel that it was approved. Their par ty pledges must be carried out and the chiefest of them is legislative economy. Governor Goodrich is extremelv anxious that his prograjn, on which- he has spent much time and which he tried hard to put throught at the last session, meet with the approval of the legislators as it does that of the people in the state.

Word has been received by friends of Corporal M. D. Reddick, a former attorney of Gary, that he is now confned in a hospital at Camp Gordon, Georgia, and eager for news from his home town. Letters addressed to him at Ward K. Das Hospital, from his friends will be appreciated and get a quirk rffporff.

Developments point to an enrly demobilization of troops at Cmp Taylor nnd many Indiana soldiT are hopeful of eating their Christmas dinners at home. Can-.p headquarters reclved a lengthy message from th? war department announcing that form blanks ;vr discharges have been mailed and outlining the system that will be pursued in mustering out when the final order for demobilization is given. All troop movements from this camp have been ordered stopped.

Well, thy took two x-ray pictures of my leg and found that they would have to operatee on it. so I was operated on a week ago Monday and my leg certainly did give

me a lot of pain after I was sick for

nearly a week. They cut my leg open on both sides about four or five inches and took out pieces of bone and then scraped the bone in my leg. I am Just now coming back to eating and sitting up. btt can't sit up long, and was feeling pretty bad. Tou know I

and around on crutches before this, but by the looks and feelings of my

i- now i w en t ds up ror two or three weeks yet at least. Well. I will give you a little news of the trip

nere. out don t know whether it wiii

gt by or net. We left Le Freport

France in th p. m., and from there to L Havre, the next a. m., we were

transferred to a boat at Le Havre

France, and stayed ther all day and and started across the channel about

9 p. m , srrning at Southampton. Eng

in me a. m. en we were put on a

hospital train again and traveled nearly all day and us Tanks were finally

landed here nbout 6 p. m.. and were all in as. .we who had fractures weie not taken off the stretcher all the way here and were glad to get in a bed again. We Ji;id one nice day and they carried us outside and the fresh air and sunshine felt fine. We are in a ward down stairs and they can take us out throuth French windows on a porch. This is a fine large place and beautiful grounds and was formerly a mansion of Mr. SUiger of the Singer Sewing Machine Company and was turned over ti the Red Cross for hospital purposes and now taken over by the Americans as a military hospital and right near a nice town called Paignton. V get plenty of good eats here but just got my appetite back the last couple of days and will try and write a letter more prompt If I keep feeling better. The mail has come but no mail for me and Iget so disappointed whiting all the time and no answers, but I know it's not your fault as you have answered me

I and my mall is on the road some

where and I will get It before long but I am sure almost out of patience. Well, I ha e three months pay coming now'and they tell me we will get our pay here. I suppose you know that beginning this month we will get our pay books and can draw our pay no matter where we are and any amount we have coming, but I suppose the books will be a long time coming, as things of that kind generally are as slew as the pay days in coming. My barber outfit is with the Company and the Lord, only knows where they are. Some tell me they are in Italy and again I hear they are in Nancy. France, but can't find out where they are. as we were always changing from one place to another and hardly ever two weeks in the same place.
