You ran hardly expect widespread respect for a people who pass up the shimmy for something more dignified. But is there not in the Londoner's dictum a suggestion for increasing the gayety of ballroom antics on this side? If a good waltzer who does all his dancing below the hips, carries his body with that dignity and poise which would enable him to use his coco as a tray fcr his teacup, why should not more jcrobatic

GERMANY AND RUSSIAThe view which prevails in England and France that a secret understanding exists between Germany and Russia and that the desire of both governments is to nullify the effects of the peace treaty and prevent putting into effect of its provisions' is easily understood. It was Germany which encouraged Bolshevism in Russia destroyed the morale of that nation and rendered it Ineffective as an ally of the entente powers. Noth
ing would be more natural than that sinister forces in!
both ccuntrles should work together against their common opponents. Vinston Spencer Churchill has pointed out the danger this would bring to Germany but It is not likely Germany will take any advice made in London however beneficial it may be.. The British secretary cf state for war called upon Germany to oppose Bolshevism in the interest of Germany the allies and Europe "to build a dike of peaceful, lawful, patient strength and virtue against the food of Red barbarism flowing from the east." and thus safeguard her own Interests as well as the interests of her" principal antagonists In the west. Besides proving her desire to co-operate with ether nations in the interests of government by civilized methods, if Germany would do this the Red invasion could be checked and the Bolshevists kept within their present bond3.

engines. It is said that 57 of the planes already have been shipped, and that quantities of others are to follow. t)f course they will be sold at prices far below thir actual cost, the result beig that our airplane Industry, already seriously crippled, will be practically wiped out of existence. And that is doubtless the real motive behind the scheme to ficod our markets with old planes. While expending enormous sums In the development of aviation in her own country. England Is doing what she can to dlscourge it in others, thus increasing her own superiority in the air. Not only would American factories be elcsed. but those of our citizens interested In aviation would be given an Inferior product and be forced to rely upon British sources for their supplies In the future. The only remedy is a law Imposing a tax which will equalize the import price with the foreign production cost.

When War Came the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad Was Found To Be An Indespensable National Asset
One of these days when time lends a clearer perspective and there is a more complete appreciation of recent events, the industrial phases of the great war will be written. That war, unlike all others that preceded it, was not merely a contest between the manhood of the belligerent powers. Far more so. It was a gigantic battle of the industrial, transportation, and natural resources of one contending group with similar resources of the other group. When the United States declared war, the Government found the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad and its personnel ready to do their share. At times the pressure was more than hard, the weather cruel, equipment overworked, and the human element insufficient and tired, but there was no lagging. As the Calumet Region became a vast arsenal, the responsibilities of the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad broadened. There had to be clock-like delivery of raw materials, and continual collection of finished munitions. The region's output of war materials attained such volume that every twenty-four hours this railroad collected from local plants and sent on its way an amount equal to two full trains of shells, explosives, heavy artillery, naval ordnance, shrapnel casing, submarine parts, airplane fittings and military chemicals. That was part of the task. The Government also designated the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad to be the official transfer route between the East and the West for perishable foodstuffs. This meant that a great bulk of the perishable foodstuffs for the A. E. F. and the army training at home and working in the war plants was handled by this line. In time of peace one of the vital factors in the nation's daily progress, the Indiana Harbor Belt Railroad is ready if war threatens to be mobilized at a minute's notice
