Jf7V THE FUTILITY? "It L rerlectly futile to think that thrrc will never to conf-lct "when wo etop to consider that in year of Christian civilisation and 4,0-00 years of Parian civilization wo hav only como to a civilized fst.it' of warfare and even that dofs not apply to All nations.T1:1j Is tho discordant nr-to in tho addrera of Pr1."-Id'-nt Hardin;? to tho mrmb'-rs of the War Colkge in which he j!eds:d that our armies would not be callrd Into any nrviee In which ltü mmber could r.ot cnt r with zi a.s American citizens. Th truth ti that no warfare is civilized. The burins of soldiern Li to kill and when they ar cal,i into action, all civilization illps away and there 1 left but the matter of flf preservation. Tho fri;htfulnff3 of Germany, with Its attacks upon unarmed fdilpi with undersea monstcre, with its. bornbinir of unfortified cities, with its use o! deadly p.i?- - w.'ih answered In kind. That was a matter -f neoffisity. Th public was told that our chemi?ts had com-i-Ut'd arrar.EremonU for th- making of gashes 50 deadly that .a few drops would kill a regiment. So rnurh for civilized wars. If f xpri nfc teaches at all, the tremendous cc of the- last war. In men, in money. In sacrifices, will mak- tho world ?'ow to ajr.iin take up arm. No rrition will enter upon conflicts unlffv It bcHeves that it can whl. Only defensive wars are conduct. 1 by th-o who do nn carry the burdens of huire armaments. That Iat;an and Christian civilization had not for G.Cf'O yrn. stopped men from debauching themfcIv. s with Il'juor did not spell futility to the forces whirl, finally banished liquor from 'this country. That rasar. and Christian civilization had not in e.000 yearn, devoloped tho uso of electricity, teara transportation, Felf provern.nQnt a . represented by thi republic, did not mean futility to thos? who made- the?.- things possible. Merauvj the world has alvraye had Its wars and i'fl conflicts no reason to believe that there mubt always r-e wars. No ideal that Lf baed upon sanity, human aspirations, the fundamental emotions of mankind, is ever futile. The world will bo as pood a place aa tho dreanu within tho hearts of men.

THE FEMINIST DEMAND. r of tho political issue raised by Mrs. Florence Hille?, new chairman of the Woman's Party, is that women f-hall have the right to keep their ma'Jeri names after marriage. The success of any political party depends upon Its ability to attract in large numbers. Only the most darintr prophet amon? mere males wf uld hazard a gucs.i a to how far such an appeal will go with new voters. The maid upon her way to the altar, her soul filled with the exaltation that comet from a gTeat love, can hardly bo expected to pause at tho polls to belligerently demand that she retain her own name. Tho wife who has lived years that were filled vltli con-videration. kindness and care, would probably need much education to be convinced that unknowingly she. had been an oppressed victim of man's unreasonable custom. There may also come, a reminder that there was a time in tht slow progrcevt from barbarism to lvihz.itjf-vn when such a custom prevailed and when all inheritance laws wire ba.sed upon maternity, not paternity. That was before religious teachings taught that "this twain hall be one fleh" and the mor all-, ties of the aco made ancestry, except through tao mother, a matter of uncertainty. Thtro are those cynics who declare that the clever fem ile of the ypccle? traded that -status of life, with its vagrant attentions, for the security, tho support, the protection of one man. The? also, -will delve into the realms of biological rerarch and declare that the female species of life is at lM5t a million years o'dcr than the male and that through Inherited protective instincts, cultivated in this long era. fhe has always been able to rule, nlthouch .-t mlngly subservient. Thv demand is symptomatic of the feminist movement which has its expression in the new Woman's I'arty. I's argument is economic. Its logic leads to a f-ui'portir.- individual banis of life, instead of th- family unit. Tim.- chance. CuVnns crow stale. The militant d rv. arel of women for th right to go on through 'ifo with the cim name ray become more than a fad. Wl;o knows?

(TO HE CONTINUED.)

The rcKly cf i:i:cll Orow ha been brought back t' the Unitid Statte. He will be given a military farer.il in Philadelphia, known .if tho birthplace of l;hr:y. vt Independence Hall and curator ct c.r. ij v:u a riMl sV.ior. Xir. tlrr.c3 he went over t'.if top in b-ittU"a s.-vlnst Germany. Finally ho gave his life to ci ur.try. This part of his etcry mipht be written about th. ir.i'.s rf oth r young Americans In whose homca th-re will be aching hearM that mourn. C.-es-s diffired from these ethers in that he was cill'.i when lUrpioI!. n.illionalr alacker and German, sympathizer, f.ed to avoid the saleetlve jen'ifd Tht hs w?s an ir.f.nltely better aldier and ftghter thin .any man with slacker hear; could hav been is ti.-'.

He hAd, materially, lee? to protect, for the ancestors cf Bergdoll had found vast wealth in this land but had imbibed bo little Im than wealth that when the ourco cf all their fortune wad endangered, the aon of th family turned traitor. He is In Germany now. He laughs at eftorta to Lrin? him back, A congressional con.rr.lttee accs:j high army o.Tidils with ta.kirj tnoney to corvilve at hl eecurlty. When you consider tho funeral at Philadelphia cd. th Xact t&t JU:ci9ell Cro&s wu whara, by all

the laws of the l-nd. Grover Berp1oll should hav been, you will probably agree that the mory Is not yet fully written. Tho final chapters must Include the return of tho millionaire -slacker and the punishment of Americans who took hL bribes.

OUR LIMITED PERSPECTIVE. Everyone applaud the action of Pre't Hardinfr in calling attention of John Wanamaker, millionaire merchant, to tho fact that one of hi3 employ, la unablo to live on the wage paid to him. This particular case came to the notice of tho White IIou?o through the fact that the worker 13 the father of 19 children and earns but $22 a week. Tho ar.Hwer of Mr. Wanamaker, employer of thousands, is that the man gets $2 more han he is worth a.s a worker and lnferentially, reminds the president that our present fry stem of business contemplates the fixing of wage waleo on a basis of value received, not according to Individual needs. The big burden fall? upon the mother of those 1 children, the oldest of whom is 22 yeara old. She must make the sacrifices. The country needs children to keep it going. As a father, this man has made generous contribution to thin end. As, a worker, he has not 60 much to commend him. Sympathy for an individual case may In time lead the president to the broader view and show him that while he may be effective in isolated cases, tne real job i3 to provide for all and that at some day a mother's compensation measuro may return proper rewards to t'ioso who keep the state alivr. o ANOTHER SIGN OF THE TIMES. The Press Congres.s of tho World, composed of editors and publishers, meets this year In Honolulu. "All business sessions will be held in the grefrt throne room of tho royal palace of the Hawaiian monarchs" is tho announcement of tho."e in charge. Th3 real downfall of all monarchies began when Gutenburg invented the movable type in 1430 and made printing possible. Men then began to think. Up to that time learning was held in leash by the few. Thinking men demand equality, not sovereigns. An editor he Ids? away over the greatest republic of all times. Other editors will discuss the problems of the world In the room where onco courtiers bent in humble servility to the slightest wdsh of royalty. Next!

PROLONGING HUMAN LIFE. In 25 years, the average of human life in tho United States has been increased four years. So reads the statement of insurance experts who have before them the statistics for about 100 years. This has been accomplished despite the fact that there aro thousands of deaths each year due to auto accidents, that the multiplication of machinery In factories has claimed many victims, that the shift from an agricultural to a industrial proponderanco cf population has taken men out of tho open and housed them in cities. The explanation given Is that a wide teaching of hygiene and sanitation has cut down tho ravages of disease. Open plumbing and bath room3 in every home have helped. The average age of man is stiH far below what it should be. Piology shows that the average of animal life Is approximately 10 times the period that it tal.es to reach the ago of reproduction. This should make the average life of man 140 years. When mental hygiene, normal methods of life, abolition of all excesses are general and common, men and women who live to be 150 will not be unusual. In the meantime centenarians continue to be matters of news. o That step to success isn't a side-step. o Men who sleep- on the Job never get up. o tlons. o Cultivating one's voice usually raises a protest. o

IXYKSTMIIXT PUOTIXTIOX. (IiulinnaixdU ews.) The loss of 1500,000,000 by the American people last year through the sale of worthless stocks has brought a good many bankers, securities dealer- and business men to the realization that something must be done to protect investors who thus tiuandcr capital for which there is a great demand by honest business. "lilue sky" laws provido one form of protection, but they are not Substituten for Judgment based upon long experience in investments. The b1?curitio? commission, acting under the authority of the "blue sky" liw, can. and does, discourage the sale in Indiana of palpably fraudulent stock, but it can not guarantee the value of all Investment securities fold under it.- license. The Indianapolis P.ctter Dullness bureau, following a plan devised by the Cleveland Hotter Ilunc:bureau, has adopted a system of investigation which fhould conserve Indianapolis capital. It is estimated that the Indianapolis share of the total national Icvsj through worthless ftock last, year was $1.500.000. The fietter Huslneess bureau believes that it can sive thi.- money by makinc an unbiased report upon the offering of etock salesmen who seek buyers in Indianapolis. The bureau has prepared a question blank for distribution to members cf the bureau and through them to their employes, upon which salesmen are asked to answer questions about the comp iny whoao stock they are attempting to sell. The bureau will make a report upon the salesman's statement, and the employer can advise h.s employee? accordlnur'.y. Th hont-Ft .f'-"-k .i!cman houl1 wflco.ne this innovation. A favorable report will assist him materially in dispevslnp of his securities. The sal sman w ho Is misleading his i respective cu.-tomc; perhaps because the salesman himself ha? been mi--led by ht employer will aocn be oblicod to move to fields where the resource t? cf the casual investcr are le.s.s carefully guarded. .. o M11VT 1TU1 ALASKA. (Now York i:enlnj? IVt.) Thirty thousand pounds of dreed reindeer rr.at from Alaska landed in Sin Francisco, marks the boginning of a new industry in the far north. Some 3 0 years ago cur government stocked the Alaska-.i plair.H with 1.T00 reindeer, to serve as food for the Ksklmos. whose wild caribou and .a animal.- were fast disappearing. The reindeer have Increased to 200.00O, of which 150,000 are owned by the natives and the remainder by white men. The latter have established a slaughter house and refrigerator pWnt near Nome and have begun -shipping their meat to Seattle and San Francisco. Reindeer meat is described an Juicy and tender, nearly free of the gamy llavor, and tastes a g'Xd deal like yearling beef. What were considered a few years ago as de.sert wastes in Alaska are r.ew found to be poe.l crazing lands. The plains or tundras spread out over many million of acres, producing abundant egeta tion In -summer. In winter the animate feed on the lichen or reindeer mosj common in the 13crin eea an J Arctlo coajrtad regions.

NOTED EDITOR IN PLEA FOR RUSSIA

BUPLIN, Sept. 1. Furope fiddles while Russia is dying, is the keynote of a clarion call to the nations of the world by Maximilian Harden In his famous weekly, Die Zukunst, urging all nations to join hands at .nce in a systematic plan for relief and recon.-truction or Russia without, however, meddling in that country's internal affairs. Harden's proposal for a general staff to be headed by Herbert Hoover and Marshal Koch to command an army of a million workers for Russian relief and reconstruction, exclusively reported in these dlspatrhes Tuesday, has .caused widespread discussion in Kurope. He now follows it with a warning that the pre-sent American relief action is but a "drop in the bucket." T!k- noted editor draws a vivid word picture of the llusslan fituation. lie warns that It spells disaster to the whole eastern hemisphere unless all nations "pitch in" immediately.
