I BITS FOR BREAKFAST CAPITAL ISSUES COMMITTEE TO REMAIN ON JOB Will Indefinitely Supervise - Bond Issues to Regulate , U. S. Bonds HOME INDUSTRY; A SOLID CITY BUILDER. By Frank J. Chapman, Manager Salem Commercial Club. 'To have a real industrial center, it is necessary to maintain a local industrial population. , , Every step taken by Salem people to expand a factory or shop, by using its product, makes Salem look better to any manufacturer seeking such a location as this city, because a supply of labor to draw upon is vital to all manufacturing. . . Every factory in Salem is a community asset. '"Even if only a half dozen men arc employed, these men must live and maintain their families here. 'The money they earn goes to the grocer, butcher, shoe and cloth ing stores; the tax collector gets some; so does the dentist and doctor. If money is spent for goods made elsewhere that can be produced equally as well here, it means that such money goes away and stays away forever. It seems easy to see that we must keep our money at home, for our own manufactured products, and this will eventually enable the manufacturer to reach out and bring new business into our com munity.. Buy home manufactured products. V vThe "Acres of Diamonds" for Salem are largely in the berry patches and orchards and flax fields of the surrounding territory and their indefinite increase. Salem Is over the top. S S m And she is still going. S That is the Salem way. S And Marion county is not behind. S The Bolshevik! of Russia are all dressed up and no place to go. m m They, are even less welcome than the kaiser, if possible, la any coun try in the world. S . . If all the people are represented at the peace conference who want to be there, there will not be room enough In all Versailles, or all Paris, or even all France, for the crowd. V . And in the meantime, the peace conference Is being offered sugges tions enough to fill a library full of books. WASHINGTON. Nov. 20. Secre tary McAdoo and members of the capital issues committee today agreed that the committee should continue indefinitely supervising proposed is- But as far back as June. 1915. the cardinal secretary of state declared that "the holy see does not wish to create embarrassments for the ltalJ Ian government and look not to foreigs -armies, but to the sense of justice among the people of Italy In conformity with its true interests." One would have thought that this of ficial pronouncement ''would bare been sufficient to dispose of the sus picion that the pope looked to a Ger man victory to win back the tempor al power. But the calumny was per sisted in. Only a few months ago. when the veracious correspondents J were charging the Vatican with re sponsibility for the Italian defeat, the Italian prime minister felt called up on to publicly deny these charges in the chamber. But it would seem the calumny is still doing duty. j How anyone at all conversant with history can assert that the pope has "made no interposition in favor of the Belgians" is really startling.

It could not at any time have licked "one side of" either the Brit ish or the American navy. Tho Hun-Bolshevik government of the Ukraine having been overturned, the end of Bolshevik misrule In Rue- sia is in sight. And Russia's experi- ence with that sort of anarchy will serve the world for a geneiatlon. - As soon as the Bolsheviks are out of the way In Russia, which will be soon, it will take only food, soap and education, and ample time, to bring that nation to its proper place In a clean, orderly and decent world. of autocracy, the history of Germany and of the world would have taken a very different course, and the chief causes of the present catastrophe would have been taken away. To destroy the liberal and repub lican sentiment which led to that flare-up was the chief preoccupation of the reactionary rulers of Germany, and to that end they used the schools the army and the, bureaucratic ma chine. The schools taught a mis chievous jingo patriotism, the army won glorious and profitable victor ies, the government placated the masses with welfare legislation. As result Germany's rulers buried lib eralism only to see it spring up two generations later as socialism. With the revolution of '48 the king of Prussia could readily have made terms that would have put not Prus sia only but all Germany on the way to a healthy democratic development like that of England The great split between the masses and the upper and middle classes which gave socialism so tremendous a development in Germany goes back to the suppression of the revolution hich drove William I to hasty flight n 18148. The Hobencollem sowed the wind and reaps the whirlwind. It will take years for the farmers In the Salem territory to raise enough loganberries and other small fruits to fill the demand. The Idle and little-used acres should be put to work ing, as fast as possible; as fast as the capital and the labor can be ob tained.. : V Unci Sam is now in the banking business on his own account, to the extent at least of loaning war indus tries (all run by private parties) more than forty-three million dol l&rs; forty million dollars of it with out the medium of any bank. Those loan were made direct, through the War Finance Corporation, of which Secretary McAdoo Is the head. There will hare to bo some unscrambling In tblg direction, too. Mr. Gompers, It he expects the wages of the labor in this country t be kept up anywhere near the war standard, will have to see that there is a Republican administration at Washington; In favor of the prlnci pie of protection. Under the present tariff laws. It would not take long to bring about a great deal of uneni ployment in the United States, and the consequent lowering of wages In nearly all If not In all lines. The craft was estimated to be nearly 300 feet in length. Its number had been painted out. Near the Ship Wash lightship three large British seaplanes, fol lowed by an airship, were observed. The Harwich forces and tbe sea planes and airships made a most im pressive sight. One of the submarines was seen to send up a couple of carrier pig eons and at once a signal flashed from the admiral that it had no right to do this. When the Bhips cleared the mine field and entered the war channel the "paravenes" were hauled aboard. On Reaching point some 20 miles off Harwich the ships dropped anchor and Captain Addison came out on the warship Maidstone. British crews were put on board the submarines to take them Into harbor. With the exception of the engine, staff a all the German sailors remained on deck. The submarines were then taken through the gates of the harbor and the German crews were transferred to the transports which will take them back to Ger many. As the boats went through the gates te white ensign was run up on each of them with the German flag under neath. Each German submarine comman der at the transfer was required to sign a declaration to the effect that his vessel was In running order; that its periscope was intact; that Its tor pedoes were unloaded and that Its torpedo heads were safe, u Orders had been Issued forbidding demonstrations and were obeyed to the letter. There was complete si lence as the submarines surrendered and as the crews were transferred. So ended an historic event and the first portion of the German submar ine fleet is now In the hands of the British navy. 50 WOUNDED YANKS (Continued from page 1) ' sory power, which It now lacks, andifical blessing was for us. and he name.

Albert Ballin (Herr Ballin) whose udden death was announced at tier- In a few days ago, apart from being ne of the greatest shipping men of the world prior to the outbreak of the war, was somewhat celebrated ecause of his intimacy with the let-man emperor. On all shipping natters he was the emperor's trust id adviser, second only, on occasion, o Grand Admiral von Tlrpitz. There was a report widely circulated, that the resignation of -Von Tirpitz was finally brought about by Ballin, who leclare'd himself opposed to many features of the submarine policy, tnd having the emperor's ear, was said to have warned him of the seri ous consequences of the useless de struction of merchant ships. This. was in 1916, but after the United States entered the war. Herr Ballin had little to say and soon fell Into disfavor, probably because of 'lis1 failure to support the emperor and the government In the policy which had brought about a state of ar between Germany and the Unit ed States. There is a well authenticated stoty of a conference between the emperor. Von Hindenburg. Lundendor n'i Uallin, In which the shipping man. after listening to the glowing ac count of the military situation given by the military leaders, told the em- peror that every extra month of the war meant an additional year in get ting out of the ruin after the war.

Acting Burgomaster Le fftonler's proclamation Inviting the people to prepare a welcome for the victorious troops and the Belgian king and queen was placarded throughout the city. The streets were profusely be-1 flagged with Belgian and allied col ors. The , first troops to arrive were greeted with intense enthusiasm. The ceremony proclaiming the lib eration of Bussels was performed in the grand palace at 10 o'clock. The square was packed with townspeople and former prisoners. The windows and balconies were crowded with on lookers. Newsboys were shouting the names of newspapers which had been suppressed by the Germans and which reappeared today. Burgomaster Le Monier, heralded by a fanfare of trumpets, appeared at the Leon staircase, accompanied by an alderman, and announced tbe lib eration of tbe capital. His speech was Interrupted continually by cheers from the crowd, which swore that tbe murders and robberies commit ted by the Germans would never be forgotten. The Belgian flar was then hoisted over the Hotel de Vllle while the people In the square waved the nat ional colors. The Brabaconne was sung, followed by anthems of th allies.. Tbe excitement of the people reached ita zenith when a procession was formed. It was headed by an old banner of tbe revolution of 1830. a symbol of Belgian liberty.
