We are sometimes inclined to the view that civilization
defeats its own ends by making it easier for weaklings
to survive.
Union county's share in the national endowment drive
of the American Legion is only $1800 just one dollar
from 1800 citizens (or $10 from 180 citizens) who want
to see the orphan children of World War veterans given
pleasant homes and a fair chance for happiness. When
the solicitation starts Monday, Way 25th, every person in
the county should have a part in making it a success.
MAKING WAR "HUMANK."
As America's representative at the international con
ference for control of traffic in arms Representative Theo
dore E. Burton, of Ohio, has condemned the use of poison
gas for war purposes and urges the world powers to agree
by treaty to ban the exportation and employment of poison
ous gases for war.
In peace time there is probably not one civilized nation
i that does not condemn the release of poisonous gases'
jagajiist human beings for their destruction, or nmiming,
mentally or physically. It would be the simplest thingin
the .world to get a treaty with a score of national "signa
tures" affixed prohibiting gas warfare. Hut in time of war
treaties are so many scraps of paper and thei-e is not yiie
of the score of nations which might agree to tho gas treaty
jin time of peace that would not violate its terms in time
lof -war if facing defeat or gas tactics from the enemy.
What Congressman lturton recommends for poison gas
lias lcen urged for tho aeroplane. Itecause aircraft is de
jntructivo of life and property in time of war the ultra
pacifist would have it abolished even as a commercial con
veyance. I 'Would the peace quacks have the public believe that
'war' can be abolished by the simple process of abolishing
the instruments of warfare? I'cforc gunpowder, cannoi'.,
warships, rifles, airships and poison gas were invented
wars waged almost incessantly over the populated areas
o the earth. As the appliance and munitions of war in-1
jcreased in number and deadly effectiveness wars have de
creased in duration and frequency. Might not science do
much toward establishing perpetual world peace by making
war still more terrifying and destructive than it proved to
be in the last war?

foreign money to help keep ex

rates at many hotels have been re

been Issued which make it poMSihle
for touring companies to resume

same basis that they worked before
(the war.
Visa rates on American pass
ports also are lower, and the tax
on foreigners hits been removed in
practically all German cities. There
have also been changes in police
regulations which make it unnec
essary for travelers to appear per
sonally before policy officials to

Jialhvay rates are high In com
