THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM Published Every Evening Except Sunday, by ' " ' ' Palladium Printing Co. Palladium Building, North Ninth and "Sailor Street. Entered at the Post Office at Richmond. Indiana, as Se ond Class Mall Matter. MEMBER OP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Associated Press Is exclusively entitled to the use tor republication of all news dispatches credited to It o Bot otherwise credited in this paper and also' the local ewe published herein, All rights of republication of special dispatch hare la ara also reserved. The Need for Nurses Wayne county is asked for twenty young women to do nurse work in the Red Cross society. The appeal for recruits has not met with a hearty response in this community. We are far below the allotment. For some inexplicable reason the young women are not taking to heart the call of their country. Can it be that they are shirking the responsibility and sacrifice of service ? Can it be that they dread the fatigue of actual work, preferring to stay at home to entertain the soldier boys that pass through the city or to engage in light duties, in their spare hours? Must the boys when they come back learn that the girls of Wayne county lacked the quality of patriotism that sent hundreds of them into
the training camps? Will the girls be laggards and sluggards in this crisis?
Certainly the girls of Wayne county are just as patriotic as the boys. Now they have the op
portunity to prove the sincerity of their protestations of love for the country and its flag. The test of their loyalty is at hand. Will they respond?
In this general discount of national integrity we may take one great satisfaction namely, our actions have given no ground for it. We took military possession of Cuba, and, handed it back to its own people. The Philippines fell to us as a prize of war, and no one who looks candidly at the record doubts that we have regarded them as a trust for the benefit of their inhabitants. In the face of great provocation, and perhaps even by an excess of altruism, we refused to go into Mexico. We had the same opportunity to grab Chinese territory and revenue that Germany had. but we refrained. We have proved good faith where we have had the opportunity. That js a satisfaction. We can only believe that persistence in the path of integrity will bring its due reward, and in time to come, when the United States says it seeks no conquest or unfair advantage over other peoples, its word will be taken at face value everywhere.
A Nation's Reputation Confidence is the cornerstone of busiriess. Credit is extended on the basis of a man's character and probity. If a man's word is as good as his bond, he need not fear the future. If he has established a reputation for telling the truth and keeping his promises, he has an asset on which he can capitalize. 4 And so with nations. The United States has kept its national integrity immaculate. It has fulfilled its promises and studiously lived up to every pledge. For that reason it holds an enviable position in the world. Duplicity and chicanery have not polluted or marred our national history. We have backed our words with deeds. The. Saturday Evening Post discusses the principle from this angle : Hardly anything could be more useful to the world right now than just this: To get one nation to take the word of another. When we can believe the words of the official spokesmen of the Central Powers we may be ready to talk peace with them. If the Russian people believed that military intervention by the United States was no more inimical to Russia than we say, they could hardly resent it.

The New Man Power Bill America hopes that Congress will not waste unnecessary time debating the man power bill or haggle long over its provisions. The basic principle of the whole issue is the supplying of enough soldiers to end the war. It is definitely known that these reserves cannot come from England or France, because their man power is exhausted. The only reservoir from which they can be drawn is the United States. So why delay in establishing the machinery that will make available the men? The American people want the war won as quickly as possible. They have pledged themselves to that program. If men and more men will turn the trick, then it behooves Congress to enact the legislation. ,

(By Associated Press) AN IRISH PORT, Aug. 16. The Germans in their extremity to make their raw materials for ammunition go as far as possible have stripped their torpedoes until they are bare as skeletons compared to the former efficient mechanisms.

The members of the Willing Workers class held their August social at the home of Miss Edna M. Hill, Saturday evening, August 10. After a short business meeting games were played which were followed by a marshmallow toasting.

steering apparatus. This has been done at the cost of accuracy and range of fire and at the same time enhances the danger to the U-boat by forcing them much closer to their target than would be necessary if the older types of torpedoes were used. But it has resulted in a great saving of copper and brass, and doubtless has facilitated quantity production. ' Under normal conditions a torpedo should be effective at 2,000 yards or more, but the Germans now seldom Are more than 600 yards, and when they believe they are comparatively safe they approach much nearer than that to their intended victim. At close range the stripped torpedo is practically as effective as the more complete types, but the fact remains that the Germans have forced the submarine

Life Saving in This War
From, the Chicago Tribute.
EN. MARCH has permitted the publication of some interesting statistics on casualties based on the experience of the French and British armies during
four years of war. 1 lU brief, they are as follows: Of wounded sent to hospitals fewer than one in twenty die. Of wounded and sick sent to hospitals only about forty-five in a thousand die. Of all soldiers wounded in action over 80 per cent return to service, many of them in less than two months. Only 14.5 per cent are discharged for permanent disability. When the history of the war is written one of the most remarkable chapters will disclose the advance made in the treatment of wounds, fhe prevention of disease, and the salvage of life and bodily health through modern medical and surgical science.

YOUNG MAN DROWNS.
NEW MADISON, Aug. 16. The 17-year-old spn of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Schlectey was drowned in the gravel uit near Fort Jeffrson whil swimming.
The German general who escaped in his pajamas and ran down the road toward home probably cursed the man who invented pajamas without suspenders. It is always difficult to make good time in those things.
So the young, tikes thought they were going to get all the glory out of this war! Well, what do you know about that? Wait till old Uncle Henry, who used to hit a 10-cent piece with a squirrel rifle at 500 yards gets busy! Then we shall see what we shall
