Jt means the saving ol a lot of real money for the community every year. o According to reports from Salem, Governor Witliycombe threatens to veto the good roads bill if it is passed including a clause for doubling the present automobile license fees, regardless of the fact that this increased revenue is to be applied on the roads. His claim is that half the automobiles are owned by farm ers and that this proposed increase of the license tax would be an injustice to them. Those who know the governor do not hesitate to say that the real reason of his assuming such an altitude is that he is playing for the farmer vote at next year's elections. That no matter how important a matter is to the state at large, even though it be of the magnitude of a good roads system, playing pontics lanes precedence over it, so Jar as me governor is. con Ilio. k.'Klefi by cordons of police. Han 1m am lsco's sc?jreiitOiI district had the appearance 0f a. deserted village tonilit, following the eviction of hundreds of women inmates of dis ordcrty houses hy the police today. Details of police, under orders of Chief of l'o!i.:e White, swooped down ou th di.t'-ict shortly after 1 o'clock. The women were told they had one hour to pack up "and Kct out." In less than half that time the narrow streets and alleys were fill ::1 willi sir's and women carrying suitcases, hirdcatfes and articles of 1 finery.

J I' s.ich an assertion was made it was another idle boast, since they have I ailed to accomplish anything of the kind at the Suez ('anal. I' tnama is I.OOU miles farther away from (iermany than .Suez is from the Austrian ports, and the United States has a number f Avar craft ready to pick oil' any submarines that mav appear in I hat vicinity. I!y comparison it would be worth 100 times as much to the (Jerman powers to gain control of the Suez (.'anal, or stop vessels from passing through, as it would be to prevent the us'i ( f the I'anama Canal. Suez is the direct Mnglish route to and I rem India, China and Australia, and many thousands of soldiers aid immense quantities of sup plies are being regularly transpi rt d by that route. By indignities thrust upon tl e American minister, Urand Whitlock, at Brussels, the deni al: oll'icials seem to be trying either to force this country into nr, or foolishly imagine that the Americans are cowards and will 1 ot light. Possibly they think we have no fighting equipment wherewith to inflict any injury upon the German forces. If so, ,h y are mightily mistaken. This country is 100 times better equ'pied than it was 2'j years ago for the manufacture ol' arms, an m.iuition, explosives, aeroplanes, etc., and we have an inexhaustible supply of materials within our own borders. It is historical thai file United States never goes to war except as the very last res ir:, but the world has no better fighters than the American sol lit rs and sailors. If war must come, on account of the overthrow of American rights, Germany will soon find that they have to n :;et an adversary of enormous power and one which has no four of the ultimate outcome. According to the view of Charles I'Mward Russell, the widely known publicist, newspaper con e; pondent and magazine writer, Germany wants the United States and will never rest until it gets ti ever notice that one significant plir people of Germany are sulfering : danger the vitality of the nation.' is starving. The thing I vcnliiivi when I was abroad studying th.'s pass. The German people were ,'h calories day after day and month thing, and that is the bump. "The clever men that steer Germany's course see the bump close at hand. They had rather iie licked by the whole world than be licked by the entente. They aiv going to save their faces and try to save the dynasty by com clling the United States to come in. It is impossible to translate th-so notes in any other way. To talk about starving Kngland with a submarine blockade is to talk in one's sleep. You miirht as we' I try to blockade it with row boats. Twenty times all the sulin :irines that Germany ever had could not starve Kngland. Kveiy man in Germany that is not a lunatic must know this perfectly well. 'Kuthlessness' as practiced by submarines may sihk a lot of ships, drown many crews and kill many noncombataiit passengers. It will not end the war nor shorten it. This is a cinch. Nothing then can come of this move except to compel the United Slat' s to add itself to Germany's ene mies. hereupon the German y; i eminent can surrender without disgrace or dishonor at home. It could then exclaim: 'We beat the entente to a fra..le, but we couldn't beat the whole world, of course.' Besides all which, when it comes to the terms of peace, Germany will fare much better with the United States silting at the board. We have no Kuropojiii grudges. "American ships are going to oe .sunk, American lives will be lost, legitimate Anu'rican trade 'i be destroyed. Xo amount ol pacific desires will enable ns to :.idestep these things. "The administration will make no hasty move. But let it be slower than the Supreme Court end more deliberate that the statue of Buddha, il will come at last to the place where it must strike. "Within three weeks we may be in the row, sword in hand, or placed plainly in all men's iew. And if we go in we shall end the war. We need lake no stock in the idea that there is nothine m do. We can do a lot. We are not vet a nation of foohle- brates. We hae Mill physical and intellectual have soniehing else. Wo are the world's itm- tremendoin force of a moral code and a matter before the slate, but with the governor it seems to be now, as always, that politics has first place. Involved in the world-wide war s there, lie writes: "Did you '.so in th'e German note that the Bains and privations that en That tells the story. Germany to predict to you last summer .' mailers for you has come to , of calories then. To be shy of after month can mean but one iTi.i:.snii" as viewed (Continued from pane 2). , oi!i:; i:m:im'i;i:sii plant had taton vi:ai:'s hisi.ness. over to ItH physician Hie entire mat ter ot 1l-al( h.

In North Carolina u certain dog trainer received more money than any teacher in t ho county. When Ihn teachers protested to their em ployers they we're told, "This man is more capable and understands his business belter than any of you." "liven so," replied the teachers, "a community usually uels about as Kootl schools as It deserves."
