THE COMING CLASH. - As this newspaper predicted. Wilson's industrial and labor conference has resulted in a fiasco. It has "died a-bornln' ". Labor has withdrawn from the conference. The elements in the conference were a opposite as the poles of the marnet and no conference can ever reconcile thorn. Labor and capital have differences that are basic; n-)' amount of talk and no number of meetings could pet them together. The public bloc merely formed a connecting link a bridge over the chasm to which both capital and labor refused to entrust thcm?e!vp.. It is of course to be regretted that the conference ended as it did for much good might come of a group assemblage were the differences not inborn and fundamental. Mr. Wilson will now learn to hi3 sorrowthat he 'is not the idol he thought him ;elf. reople do r.ot give up vrhat they believe to be their rights just because of words that come trippingly from even a president's tongue. The industrial and economic prospect in this fair land of ours is exceedingly dark. Labor feels that K has been unfairly dealt with and it will never surrender its be'iefs without a struggle. That struggle impend . It Iooks to us like a coming clash of Titans. The situation is not optimistic. The prospect is nor nccur-aging.

MAKING A MARTYR OUT OF HIM. The government seems to have a rather vague idfa of what censorship is. It clamps down the censorship lid at the wrong time and- place. The newspapers were warned against the printing of certain news in the G-ary military occupation, but it seems that Gene Debs is permitted to rave from his cell in prison. The Fort Wayne News says that Debs issues a long statement from the federal prison in which he declares that if he were at liberty he would he Gary leading on the bolsrv?vists in their campaign against our government. That's an Interesting pronouncement but not half so interesting as the fact that the prison officials permit incendiary nonsense of this sort to be given out by a nan under the conviction of crime. If Debs is to be jormitted to encourage and harangue the Reds from his prison cell he wou'd much better be given his liberty. ir speaking as he does he enjoys the prestige of "martyrdom."

HER EDUCATION DIDN'T SAVE HER. Said Ella Burnham. aged 19, to a policeman, after she had been arrested in Baltimore for passing fradulent checks on business houses: "You know I was given the benefit of a good education. There are so many of that sort, who we-e educated without a ?hred of the moral eloment in their training. They were given knowledge and skill, but were not developed at. all on the spirituality plane, where real education can only be granted. Ella got the material part of education in her graduation from the Hig'i schood but that didn't prevent her creatine people with fradulent checks. Our materialistic education may not take the form of fraud checks and land us in Jail, but it often furnishes us with a trend of Kfn that leaves us without a bit of moral purpose to ennoble our lives. This girl's education didn't save her. for it was not the right sort, and there is muct education like it.

THIS ACE IS TRUMP. Capt- Eddie Rickenbacker, the premier American ace. with a record of twenty-six victories in the air. has published a book entitled "Fighting the Flying Circus." In it he gives an account of his experiences, but by far the most important paragraphs are those containing Rlckenbacker's comments on the aviation equipment of the American army. 'While not intended by the author

J as an expose, what h says of American aviation in

France more than justifies all the criticism leveled at those in Charge of aircraft production. "The French had discarded the Nieuport for the stronger and steadier Spad," says ('apt. Rickenbacker. "and thus our government was able to buy from the French a certain number of these out-of-date Nieuport machines for American pilots or go without. Consequently, our American pilots in France were compelled "to venture out in Nieuports against far more experienced pilots in more modern machines. None of us in France could understand what prevented our great country from furnishing machines equal to the best in the world. Many a gallant life was lost to American aviation during those early months of 1918, the responsibility for which must lie heavily upon some guilty conscience." Later in his book he says, speaking of one of his many combats. "From every side Fokkers were piquing upon the clumsy Liberty machines, which, with their criminally constructed fuel tanks, offered so easy a target to the incendiary bullets of the enemy that their unfortunate pilots called this boasted achievement of our aviation department their 'flaming coffins." During that one brief flight over Grand Pre I saw three of these crude machines go down in flames, an American pilot and an American gunner in each 'flaming coffin' dj ins this frightful and needless death."
