SALEM OUGHT TO KEEP WIDE AWAKE.
Salem oueht to keep wide awake.
C Every legitimate line of progress ought to be encouraged.
Business and manufacturing should be pushed. -
t The largest possible employment for labor ought to be provided,
f here and hereabouts.
. Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo announces a policy of con-
Ctinued credits to Europe during the reconstruction period, in order
that the hungry people of the war-torn lands may be fed, and in
order that they may get their idle millions to work building up the
countries laid waste by the ravages of war. - .
The food and the building supplies and the raw materials and
manufactured articles they will need from this country will, for a
ttime. have to be bought on credit.
. But it is in line with enlightened selfishness that our country
'should extend the necessary credit. -
It will make for good will that will keep the commerce of this
country growing indefinitely.
Lloyd George has already announced a vigorous reconstruction
'policy .on the part, of Ureat Britain.
There is to be no lagging anywhere.
, There is to be a world boom, and the communities and cities that
are alive and awake to the situation will be the ones to profit most
t So Salem must keep wide awake. There will soon be more and
more people to do the necessary work.- They must all be found
employment. . 1
More loganberries ought to be set put. ,
More land oueht to be cleared. '
Dairying and live stock raising in every line ought to be speed
1 ed up. -
: ' There should be more work for the canneries and fruit packing
concerns, and for the dryers. We should get more factories.
A linen mill, for instance.
This can be done nowr with plenty of footloose experts from the
demobilizing armies of Europe.
' 'There is ar great future for Salem, if she will reach out and take
advantage of every opportunity.
The women of Germany are appealing to the women of America,
"They say they have been starving "for years, " and no doubt they
'have. But they need not worry. General Foch looked out for that,
.in two paragraphs of the armistice terms. And Herbert Hoover
i looked out for it. ; And President Wilson has given his word. And
1 ' the British, French, Italian, Serbian and American delegates are to
. meet at Pans, and hurry the matter along. The whole world wil
' exert every effort to keep any from starving anywhere.
, . . .
V The Yanks, who showed Europe how to speed up a war, .will now
, show her how to get a move on writh supplies for the hungry. Ger
many will have another surprise of her life.
TAKES TIME.
Under six months of government
operation the railways show increas
ed running expenses of nearly five
hundred million dollars, only about
half of which is represented by the
increased wages allowed to employes.
At the same time freight and pas
senger rates were advanced an aver
age of about 25 per cent. The net
earnings of the roads fell off more
than 60 per cent If this gait is to
keep up the original stockholders of
the roads would be glal to have the
government take their holdings off
their hands. There no fun in being
share-owner in a government
operated railway. It is pretty hard
as yet to figure out an advantage to
any one save a few employes whose
pay has been increased.

COl'KAGK IS COMMON.
One of the soldiers from Camp
Kearny, who has since been in the
fighting in France, in the course of
i letter to his mother, casually
writes:
"l never knew courage was so
common. Everybody seems to have
It."
That Is what discipline and com
panionsnip co to nature. Many a
man who, in the solitude of his lone
ly-soul, adjudges himself a coward
turns out to be a hero under, stress
of circumstances. But the turning
point of the war was when the Amer
icans in goodly numbers appeared
on the front line. Toe boys had
only trained long euough to find out
that they were not cowards that is.
each one had found that, after all,
he was just as brave as his comrade.
and from thence to rashness is but
a step. Courage Is common with any
wholesome, right-minded race, when
banded in a just and honorable
cause, i

accused of stealing a bolt or cloth

Wednesday, and other roods of sim
ilar nature found In their possession
Indicate they have been engaged In
the shop lifting game elsewhere.
At Albany th two men attempted
to sell the cloth to a tailoring estab

immediate arrest, the Albanv officers
having received Instructions from Sa
lem. Cartwrlght and Slattery vis
ited nearly every tailoring shop In
Salem Wednesday and their action
excited the suspicions of the propri
etors', so when the theft at the Sun
dln establishment was discovered
their descriptions were easily given
the officers. Sherifr Needham lo
cated them at a local hotel a few min.
utes before they took a train for Al
bany, but was unable to apprehend
them before they boarded the train.
Appearing at the Sundln shop
Cartwrlght and Slattery asked to
have a suit or clothes pressed. While
the shopkeeper went upstairs to do
their work they are alleged to have
taken the bolt or cloth and one of
the two secreted It beneath an over
coat which he carried on his arm.
The two men are held at the coun

They tell conflicting stories snd are
to be questioned further today.
