Germany s Evil is Idolatry Just as Old as Baalamites; Says Cecil

BONDON, Jan. 11. (Correspondence) ?The fundamental evil of Germany today is idolatry." said Lord Robert Cecil in a statement for the Associated Press today. "They have set up for themselves a graven imaata Just as truly as did the worshippers of Baal against whom the prophets of theJBible preached. Germany's idol Is the state. They place' the state above' religion, above morality, above all laws of God or mar . They believe- that any act is Justified which advances the Interests of the German State, however base that act may be. however immoral, however inconsiderate of the lawful rights of others. "Otto Kahn, himself a German by origin, has defined this State-idolatry as 'the demoniacal obsession of powerworship and world-dominion.' At Bottom of War. "This idolatry Is at the bottom of our whole fight against Germany. It is the secret of the whole revolting list of outrages and atrocities which Germany has committed against the civilized world. The violation of Belglum, the Armenian atrocities, the unspeakable horrors of submarine warfare all these are the outcome of a creed which holds that no laws of morality are binding when the defense of the state-idol is at stake. "The results of this violating of the foundations of morality by Germany are bound to be colossal and farreaching. They mean the degeneracy of the whole German structure, and the effects are already seen in the wave of crime and Immorality which is sweeping over Germany. So long as the governing classes are infected with this doctrine there is no limit to ' the wickedness and cruelty which will be put into execution. It means the undermining ultimately of the whole Eat More Corn INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 11. Dr. Hany E. Barnard, Federal Food Administrator for Indiana, says "EAT MORE CORN." He offers the following suggestion to retailers for effective lines for advertising corn and encouraging its increased consumption. The head lines in each case should be: THE UNITED STATES FOOD ADMINISTRATION SAYS: 1. The best way to take care of our enormous corn crop is to eat it. 2. Corn is the original American grain. It saved our pioneers, it will save us now. EAT MORE CORN. 4 The surplus of corn this year over any previous year is greater than this year's entire wheat crop. Corn cannot be economically shinped to Europe. WE MUST EAT MORE CORN HERE. 5. Corn is King in America today. One-third of all out land under cultivation is in corn. EAT MORE CORN. 6. We cannot send corn to Europe because: a. The meal Is likely to spoil in shipment. b. Only the, whole grain can be shipped and the Allies have few mills to grind It. c. The people in Europe do not know how to use corn meal. We have the corn and the mills to grind it, and we know how to use it." EAT MORE CORN. 7. Corn is more than food to us; it is a symbol. Staying right at home, it plays a colossal part in the war, for it sends the wheat abroad. CORN IS THE HOME GUARD among food products. WHEAT IS THE SOLDIER OF THE LINE.

fabric of their civilization. This is what President Wilson has foreseen. This is a reason for the determination of President Wilson and the leaders of the Allies on both sides of the water to carry this war through, whatever the cost, in order that the world may be a fit world to live in. Lansdowne Determined. "The Lansdowne letter has been thought by some to indicate some weakening of determination on the part of this country, some change of attitude.. I believe any such impression is a profound delusion. I know it is a delusion as far as the actual government of England is concerned, and I believe that the British people as a whole, Including Lord Lansdowne himself, are more determined than ever to bring the war to a victorious conclusion. "I see that it is being alleged with a certain degree of plausibility that there are many points in which Lord Lansdowne is in agreement with President Wilson's message. That may be so. But in the case of the President's message there breathes through every line not only a determination to win for in that there is no difference between the two men but also a certainty of victory. President Wilson's message has an inspiration of leadership which Lansdowne's letter lacks."

NEW MAYOR MOVES SEVERAL CAPTAINS Mayor Zimmerman's promised re-organization of the fire department has started with the moving of several captains from one fire house to another.

Charles Sinex will be removed as captain at No. 1 and made captain at No. a. The changes were recommended by the board of public works. Trustee's Office Not Very Popular Here SHELBY VILLE. Ind., Jan. 11 Democrats in Hendricks county are refusing to accept the office of township trustee, left vacant by the death last week of Louis P. Rose. Mr. Rose shot and killed himself. His predecessor, Samuel McClure, ended his life by hanging. The place has been offered to three men, but all three rejected it immediately and refused to consider the place. A superstition seems to have spread over the township that an ill-omen hangs over the office of trustee in Hendricks township. County Auditor Frank Fagel is continuing his efforts to get a man for the place. Palladium Want Ads Pay. oats Suits Furs Waists (artiunjr Must Go"

SUFFRAGE IS

Continued From Page One. ' to the state legislatures on the same non-partisan base. Yesterday's vote leaves women preeminently beholden to neither of the dominating parties but deeply indebted to both, because each brought striking and determining influence to bear on behalf of the amendment." MORNING NEWSPAPERS GLAD ENGLISH WOMEN HAVE VOTE LONDON, Jan. 11.-The morning newspapers welcome heartily the decision of the house of lords on woman, suffrage, which gives the vote to about six million women ar encs the long wrangle which has troubled the country for years. It is true that the third reading of the bill is yet to be taken and a motion to submit the question to a referendum is to be disposed of, but it is not believed that this has any prospects of success even If pressed to a vote. Leaders of the suffrage cause, many of whom were in the lobby of the house of lords during the debate yesterday, did not conceal their joy. Mrs. Millieent C. Fawcett, a veteran champion of the .woman suffrage movement and who has worked tirelessly for its success for fifty years said: "I don't say that everybody will be satisfied, but I think we will get the rest when occasion arises. We certainly do not think of rushing in to ask for more immediately." Miss Cbristabel Pankhurst said: "The vote will be used f or' thei. national good, first, for promoting social reforms, second, for stimulating national defense, and third, for disciplining democracy. Miss Pankhurst added that the women of Great Britain now had only one idea, namely, to assure victory for the allies. "The man who laughs at you today for saving may envy you tomorrow." "The stomach Is a greater cause of poverty than the sword." GOOD BLOOD "Blood will tell." Blotches and blemishes, like murder, will out, unless the blood is kept pure.
