agreements- sensitive to slights or asperions about their color-
Speaking of color, we are the most narrow-minded nation
on the footstool, due in large measure to our experience with
the blacks. There are millions of Americans who do not know
enough to be civil to a man not of the Caucasian race.
There is one Japanese policy that we ought to understand
and appreciate: It is their Monroe Doctrine about Asia. What
goes on across the Yellow Sea in Asia, stirs Japan as the af-
fairs of Culm, Mexico and South America affect, jis. Their
viewpoint and concern are difficult for the American, but in
time and with the association as allies we shall probably
change our attitude toward our western neighbor.
The Islands of Japan are too small for tlie sustenance of a
growing populaiton. Hoorn must he made in the world some-
where for the young Japanese- and Asia is the only logical
or political possibility., Northern Manchuria and Eastern Si-
beria arc sparsely settled and can make room for the sons of
Nippon.

NO PEACE NOW
There is little doubt that the Germans are getting ready for
another peace proposal. Through friendly Dutch statesmen
inspired terms- are being given out. They want to keep the
eastm gains and trust to bargaining for light damags for dep-
dredations and evasions of the terms later.
When the time does come to talk peace, and it is not close
now. the power of the Hohenzollems must be cut out of the
German body politic. There must be some raid cal changes in
the Prussian constitution- giving the power to the representa-
tives of the people.
No (matter what “terms” Germany might now propose, no
reliance can be placed in the present rulers, Belgium had her
agreement with them. The Holienzollems must not lie given
opportunity to tear up any more scraps of paper.
WHAT THEY SAY.
The attendance was far from satis-
factory on Friday. Hear what noroe
of our great men say about the value
of the Ked Cron*. President Wilson:
“1 am hopeful that, ojir people will
realize that there is probably no other
agency with which they can associate
themselves and respond so effectively
to allay suffering and relieve dis-
tress.”
The hero of Verdun, General Petain,
says: ‘‘The presence of the Bed Cross
in France during the past 10 months
has been worth one million five < hun-
dred thousand men -in the trenches.
Its effect on the morale of ojur army
has been incalculable! ”
Come nl who ean, and make the city
of Orange as proud of her Bed Cross
'< chapter as she is of the Third Liberty
I loan contribution.

SOLDIERS THESE DAYS.
It is literally true, not merely rhe-
torical, that every worker, employer or
empiloye engaged in an essential war
industry is an industrial soldier called
upon to serve his country with the
same loyalty as the soldier in the
treneh. An industrial traced uring the
capital from taking advantage of the
period of the war estops both labor and
cgigeneies of war to advance salfish
interests. The man in tho trench gives
up business prospects, sacrifices wages
and comforts and risks life itself in the
service of his country. The man at
bench and forge, in mine and on farm,
should go about his work in the same
spirit of national service.—Leslie’s.

CONNOISSEURSHIP OF HONS.
A German paper speaks of the ‘‘pas-
sionate interest manifested from the
hour of their armies’ invasion of on
omy territory” in the preservation of
objects d’art. Boche eoBnoisseurship,
as exemplified by Little Willie and his
associated sneak thieves, hardly com-
mends itself to the civilized world.

Every wan of you who drafts the
plan ,places a timber, drives a noil,
fastens a bolt, caulks, paints or on-
mats in any way whatsoever to fashion
a ship is helping to jjprfonn a sacred
duty to his country. While others
slept or rested tm Sunday, sometimes
tho office men have been working,
toiling away so that this grout busi-
ness might he carried on systematical-
ly and Nuu-cessfully. All petty dif-
ferences that might hinder this great
work should be put aside.
The dreaded submarine, aptly called
the gray Water rat of the seas, must
be defeated. ‘ Thi smehnee must bo
overcome by' the aid of ships, ships
and still more ships. , In this great
and rich country of ours, abounding
in Wealth, materials to build and mil-
lions of people to use this wealth and
material, think what* can be accom-
plished.
The great menace of Brussianism is
very grave and it is threatening our
safety, happiness and very existence.
We must fight, not all at the front,
but many will have to be at, home,
providing fur the man behind the
gun. We who stay at home are
fighting as much 'in a -sense as the
soldier in khaki. The enemy was well
prepared while this country, peace-
loving and unprepared, waited while
the war was raging in Europe. Even
though we work hard now we ean
scarcely atone for the time lost.
Count that day lost when, nt setting
sun each man cannot say: “I have
done my boat.” Every day, every
hour and every moment counts.
Now, in christening this ship, “Bon-
ham.” we christen the first ship of
(his tepe that has been adopted by
tlio Ended States government as a
u model tor all its wooden ships to be
l-uilt henceforth. Each one that has
had any fart and helped in construct-
ing the “Bonham” may feel « pecu-
liar pride in having done so.
