The Effect of Good Clothing The psychological effect of clothing in producing either favorable or unfavorable impressions 5s well known. Of course, the principle cannot be applied to an extreme, for Abe Martin, clothed in the finest garments that could be bought in Indianapolis, would still be a Brown county product, and a manly figure, finely proportioned, would still be one of nature's noblest products despite the rags and tatters covering it. Nevertheless, well-cut and tailored clothes will improve the appearance of Abe Martin, and a suit of good clothing will enhance immeasurably a man with good carriage. The best proof for this is the improved appearance of many of our boys in natty and nifty uniforms. "A Harvard professor recently amazed a convention of clothing manufacturers arid dealers," says the Portland Oregonian, "by delivering an address upon this topic, in which he laid down several principles about the effect of clothing upon the wearer, and the surprise of his hearers was due to the discovery that what the learned man had dignified by a long word was nothing more than what more commonly passes for common sense. A good many of the things he said were already known to them, if they had stopped to think. When he placed them under the head of psychology they sat up and took notice. "He said, for example, that the well dressed man is 10 per cent more efficient than the poorly dressed man. He said that clothes that do not fit prevent the wearer from 'doing his best. , Cleanliness promotes self-respect. Self-respect is contagious, like confidence. The man who does not think well of himself is unlikely to win the good opinion of others. Comfortable clothing, made of good material, well brushed, was the foundation of the superstructure, he said. He was talking to hard-headed business men, and they believed him, because their own experience showed his statements to be true." Army leaders recognize the salutary effect of clean clothing on a clean-shaved soldier. Cleanliness and neatness of appearance stimulate the morale of the fighter. For that reason British soldiers shave every morning, even when' they are in the front line trenches and undergoing severe shelling from the enemy. Correspondents comment on this feature of British army life. It did not take American officers long to discover its beneficent effect, and American soldiers were early taught that a morning's shave was an integral part of army life. Clean uniforms also were demanded.' Even civilians mark the well dressed man who buys his clothing with an eye to smartness and who keeps them well pressed and in good condition. Heads of selling , organizations will not tolerate slovenly representatives of their firms, because they fear the psychological effect on buyers.

No Time to Rest Developments in the last two months indicate that America is far ahead of its war program, but this splendid showing should not lull us into the sleep of false security. True, more than one million men have been transported across the At

lantic and about 2,000,000 are under arms. The quantity of production of vessels is proceeding at a satisfactory rate, and the output of airplanes and other munitions has attained a proportion that silences criticism. Let us remember that early in the year, the allies greatly underestimated the strength of Germany and the number of fighting men that were released by the Russian debacle. That false sense of security almost proved fatal on the western front. Up to the time of the German offensive, the policy of the Allies seemed to be, wait until the foe strikes and then see how many men we need. Today the program reads: Raise the man power of the army to the nth degree, arm and provision it with the utmost expedition. Make every man fight or work. Convert the whole United States into an arsenal and training camp. Put the full force of this republic behind the punch our Allies are directing. The quicker we attain the maximum of our fighting ability, the quicker will we put an end to the war. That must be the spirit of America today. Germany's inactivity on the western front is as foreboding as it is fraught with danger for our republic. Men and guns will decide the issue. Men and guns will be available only in proportion to a governmental policy that has its eyes on the future. Germany's political and military policies are unconcerned about the last four years. Both of them are directed toward the future. It always has been so with the Teutonic view of the situation, and for that reason the kaiser's generals have struck with savage force in places where the Allies least expected the blow. Germany's conception of this war is titanic. ' It can be met only by titanic preparations on this side of the Atlantic. We have the men and the money to make these preparations. We cannot be satisfied with the number of men already put into military service and with the output of our munitions plants. Both must be increased. This can be done only by making every man in the United States don khaki or overalls. The hour is far gone when idlers and shirkers have a place in our commonwealth. Men who have retired but still have strength enough to resume work, men engaged in non-essential industries and in vocations that can be dispensed with during the war, men who are shirking the responsibilities of fighting citizenship, must get into this war. The crisis demands action.

Profiteering in the United States From the Chicago Tribune. MR. HYDE'S dispatch from Washington suggests that the general charges of widespread profiteering should taken with some reserve and that caution may well be emphasized. To accept these collective accusations at their face value is to assume that the majority of business men are unpatriotic and unscrupulous; it is to assume that the men upon whom we are relying to maintain the industry of the country, as well as to provide the supplies for our soldiers, are taking advantage of their position to mulct the country and possibly to imperil our military success. Human selfishness has taken so many ugly forms that it would be idle to suppose that there has not been more than a few examples of profiteering. In some of these cases doubtless the profits were obtained as the result of unusual circumstances rather than deliberate intention. In others, on the other hand, the broad denunciations brought forward by Socialists and other radicals are probably quite applicable. We do not think, however, that the great majority of the country's business men are primarily actuated by any other motive than to serve the nation. At any rate there has been no substantial evidence to the contrary thus far produced. ' The treasury department has reported on certain individual cases of unusual and excessive profits. In so far as these cases indicate deliberate profiteering the guilty should be sought out and punished. Perhaps we need more stringent laws; in any, event it seems clear that a heavier excess profits tax should be imposed. But there is no occasion for hysterical thinking or acting, and we must especially be on our guard against the manipulation of this question for political purposes.

LOCAL SAILOR IN FIGHT WITH SUB

In a letter to his parents, Karl Hanning, who enlisted in the' navy, about a year ago, as an engine driver, describes a battle between the ship which he was on and a German submarine. The ship was returning from a trip to France and when far out at sea a submarine was sited. Hanning said that he had been on watch about two hours when the ship's bell rang but as he thought it was just a drill he paid no attention to it. Suddenly an officer came running down the ladder with a life belt on and at this Hanning ran to get his preserver. He heard an explosion and saw a large submarine with two guns on her forward deck and one on her stern. He saw them both fire at once and said that the shot was sprayed all over him. The Americans returned the fire and after a battle of two hours and a half the submarine ceased to fire and disappeared. Hanning has arrived in an Atlantic port.

Mich., into a company capitalized at ?18,000,000. His theory was that the merger would enable him to bring about economies of production by buying raw material and other supplies in large quantities. The M. Rumely company failed in 1915. Harrington Emmerson, one of the ablest efficiency experts in the country, was engaged by Remely to introduce efficiency methods. Rumely frequently came to Richmond where his theories of manufacturing were received with acclaim for some time.

contributed $100,000 from the sale of

German ar bonds and Chicago $200,000. This money, he said, was first deposited to the credit of Dr. Albert and Count VonBernstorff with the Equitable Trust Company in New York and eventually reached Dr. Rumely. Mr. Becker added that $350,000 of the fund collected was deposited with the Hanover National Bank and $200,000 with the Columbia Trust Company. An order drawn on the Farmers Loan and Trust Company for $185,000 in favor of Lyon was signed by G. Amsinck & Co., according to Mr. Becker, who asserted that this company was the one of which Adolph Pavenstedt, now interned, was managing partner. It is alleged that it was this company that handled the Bolo Pasha funds in this country. According to Mr. Becker, Mr. Palmer requested the investigation, although no formal steps have been taken toward taking over alleged Germanowned property in the Evening Mail. The bondholders of the Mail and Ex

press Company will take possession of;

the Evening Mail tomorrow morning and "we will see to it that the true Americanism for which we stand will be reflected in the columns of the paper," said Henry L. Stoddard, president of the company, in a statement. Mr. Stoddard said that he had known for two weeks the government was searching the source of the funds with Dr. Rumely purchased tbe Evening Mail from him and his associates, but that he was astounded to hear the money was obtained In the manner charged. Asserting he was gratified that the investigatorsjiad expressed confidence in his ignorance of the transaction, Mr. Stoddard declared that "it is true, as Deputy Attorney General Becker states, that just before this country entered the war I insisted to Dr. Rumely that the course of the paper should be unswervingly, unhesitatingly and aggressively patriotic and loyal." FOLLOW RUMELEY Richmond's interest in Dr. Rumely dates back to the merger of the Gaar Scott company plant into the ML Rumely company in December, 1911. Rumely merged the Richmond plant, the M. Rumely plant at Laporte and the Advance company at Battle Creek,
