Aftrr there had been general complaint on account of these increases, there whs an investigation and army authorities, realizing the handicap under which the Y. M. C.

AUTO MEN DESERVE SUCCESS. If there is any one industry in the I'nited States that deserves success it is the automobile industry. During the war the auto manufacturer and the auto dealer d:dn"t know- whether he was afoot or horseback. We remember how the manufacturers wero hr,.i n-

The force of women police of Newark, N. J., says a dispatch, have been instructed to get after the flirtatious girls commonly called "vampires." Some of them who plied their arts too obviously on the street have been

gooa or the nation as well as Itself, the automobile industry in the United States deserves tbe reward that is said to have already come in its volume of trade. The recent automobile show in Boston, Mass., alone is said to have sold cars to an estimated value of $750,000; and all Ihe automobile makers together are reported to have work enough on hand to keep their army of more than SOO.no-0 employes busy for a year. The situation is the more fortunate because it stabilizes kindred industries. You cannot do a more deserving thing for industry and business, if you are able, than by patronizing the men who have to do with any branch of the auto industry.

THE HUMAN TIDES. "Any man who resists the present tides that run in the world will find himself thrown upon a hore so hish and so barren that it will seem as if he bad been separated from his human k'nd forever." This srikinc picture of human isolation drawn by President Wilson is probably none too strong in its obvious application to the men who are trving to thwart the big purposes of the plain people in America and other enlirhtened lands. The tides of democracy, of unselfish servic-, o? loneine for peace and desire to do whatever is best calculated to insure peace are runnine- stroneer and h:chr thnn ever before in human history. There ar so-called statesmen who cannot perceive these tidal movements, because they have no broad vi-.ion fnd no intuitive power to read men's hearts. What they cannot pee themselves they must take other r,M,i's w--"l for. o- bev "-ill indeed be swept high anrl dry. D?ytcna fFla. Journal.

The chief tide that is running in the world is Bol-

shevism. anarchy and a rotten form of socialism,

The vampire, says an exchange, is a somewhat familiar character in modern life, who figures much in movies, plays and novels. Some of them are just ordinary bedraggled girls of the street. At the other extreme are those who conceal inordinate sex desires under the polished manners of society.

And midway are great numbers of abnormal young ,

women who throw themselves at every masculine object in their path. They seek to fascinate with wily arts, feminine camouflage and unwomanly overtures. They may inter.d no serious harm and might commit no serious offense. But they lead many men to speak lightly of all womankind. The thoroughly modern girl makes herself attractive in another way. She seeks first her own independence, so she can pick and choose s.nd hold herself independent of men, utless and until she can find the right one. Her very inder-edence attracts the normal minded man. He Is much more apt to pursue the one who seems able to care for herself, who is Independent and elusive and not to be had easily. The girl who throws herself at him. who is more concerned to have a pretty face than to have a bright mind and Interesting conversation, is more and more goin? cm of date. She still finds gullible fools. But the public haE little sympathy for her, and no protests are heard if the policewomen take her aside .and wash the paint, off her face.

A DEFENSE OF DEBS. Hammond, Ind., April 13. 1313. Editor Times: In rt-ply to your editorial of yesterday on the sentence of Eugene V. Debs. fs is my first attempt at a reply to an editorial and I believe I should be heard on the following, since I speak the sentiments of the mass. It is truly the voice of the people, at least that portion of the people we should uphold. Eugene Debs has received his sentence and in all probability will soon be confined In Atlanta prison. With the passing of Mr. Debs from our social and political life the working reople of America will feel the loss of a friend and earnest worker in their behalf, which nothing can replace. His nam ranks among those of our other great statesmen as an efficient promoter of the welfare of the working class. And is not this the great class, the one In which we should take most interest? Are we not ourselves of that very class? The fact is indisputable! And it may be likened to the cutting of our own hang-rope when we make a slam at Eugene Debs or in any way whatsoever impair the work of this great man by

our censures. His name will go down 5n history as one of those great philanthropists who fought for everything pointing to the good of the mass and for the extinction of autocracy and the power of the few-. And in this connection let it be ald it Is too often the case that this type of man is unappreciated. That great man. Kark Marx German tho he was failed to receive the approbation he deserved. Yet, are not the majority of the very things he advocated in some way or other advocated in some way or othr incorporated into our governments of this age? The celebrated Frenchman, Jules Verne, died without the honor which should have attended him. The selfish world failed to realize the value of the man while he was alive and moving among his fellow-men. but his deeds lived after him as did those of Marx. Eugene Debs is this type of man; one who can look beyond this Ignorant present and fifty years into the future, while the slow world sits Idly by, unable to catch up with them and their ideas.

As between Debs and the Suprero Court of the United States, what is the Supreme Court? .... And what man will stand with his hand on his

Bible and swear that these things are not so? None but the moral degenerate, descendant of Judns Iscariot! After all. it is the old story of whether capital or labor shall rule, autocracy or democracy. It is a ques-ion which has been brewing for centuries and has now reached its climax. It may yet find its Waterloo in our generation, go. three cheers for Debs and the uplift of humanity! Tours sincerely, ERMEL E. BRAN'STETTEH, 392 State St., Hammond. (Mr. Branstet.ter Includes in bis letter a flagellation of the Supreme Court

and the courts of the United States which is omitted from his letter because it is slanderous and libellous. We 1 do not believe that Mr. Branstetter j loves Mr. Debs so much that he wishes to accompany him to the Federal prison. At least we have no yearning j

for such self-immolation. EDITOR.)

INDIANA'S GLORIOUS RECORD General Pershing is said to have assisted in the selsction of what were termed the "twelve best stories that came out of the war." These stories dealt with the heroism of the fighting American boys, who proved that they were animated by the same spirit that won the independence of the colonies and has since made America the military marvel of the world. Indiana might well write a record of her own heroes. Hoosier boys were in the thickest of the fighting. They won distinctions on every battle field for bravery, for coolness and daring under fire and for all the attributes that go to make good soldiers. Indiana home folks want those of their survivors, many of whom have records as glorious as those mentioned ia the official dispatches, back home again. For that reason Hoosiers are pledging themselves to future subscriptions to the financial support of the federal Government, incident to the Victory loan campaign. That there may be some idea of the part Indiana played on the field of action, this paper will present from day to day the story of conspicuous bits of individual heroism, in the belief that such publication will serve to stimulate the patriotism of those who were served in the noble fashion indicated, and who can not afford to fail in finishing the job properly. The first will appear tomorrow.
