FRIDAY, JULY 27. 1917 STAND BY THE PRESIDENT. , There is growing discontent at the conduct and misconduct of war-time affairs at Washington. , The army, the navy and the men who are bearing the brunt of the re sponsibilities of action seem to be acquitting themselves with credit. But at Washington, where the main spring of our war efficiency lies, and where the war, to a great degree, will be lost or won so far as we are concerned, there is haggling, delay . and puerile wordiness. The shame of h is becoming in creasingly apparent to the country at large. Soon the people, who pay the cost of this war for world free dom and who bear its burdens and its sorrows, will let it be known in certain tones that they have had enough of narrow-guage political pulling and hauling at the capital. They will rise up and drive the little obstructionists, the contemptible Kaiser-pawns and the self-conceited partisans from their posts of mis apply authority. And in their stead will be placed men of real patriotism, bignctss and ability. If the muddle at Washir.gtoi 'serves no better purpose, it wil' at least show who in Congress, and who elsewhere In official position, is truly worthy. There -will be a grand thin ning out of the unfit, during the war, and afterward. ' The ship building row, with its in terminable quibbling and delay was a world disgrace. The everlasting jealous debating and revising of the food bill is as bad. God knowB we have need of action, And the experience of our-AlUes dur ing the three years of war shows con clusively the Tightness of centralized ower, and the futility of divided re - sponsibillty. With all our democracy, the people realize the pressing necessity of au tocracy in Buch a crisis as this. ... It is the only way. Give us leaders and let them lead. Give them authority and let them use it. If they fail, they can be replaced. But failure, or at least. costly mis takes, beyond number costly to the youth of the land, our most precious possession surely will follow if the men at Washington try to conduct this war on the lines of a debating society. Strangle a few score senators and congressmen who are quibbling over the food bill. Rightly or wrongly, the country at large wants Hoover to take hold of that vital department. That is undoubted. Give him a chance. Don't strangle him with committees and community rule. It's a one man Job. If he faila, there will be time to find a better man. A one man job. That's just R In a great measure, in an unprec edented degree, this whole war, from our standpoint, must be a ons man' affair. The country expects that the one man is to be given the power to actually lead. - It expects that he'is sot to be hampered and restricted. It cares little for party and less for picayune personalities. And that one man is th? President of the United States. He is our elect ed leader. He is responsible for the conduct of the war. He mhst . be .given every authority such leadership and responsibility requires. He must be vested with truly autocratic pow er. He must be supported, not ham pered, by Congress. Such Is the wish of the country. Such is the need of the hour. Loyal Republicans would have it so, Just as much as Democrats. There is no other way. That pretty phrase, lipped so often at the time of declaration of war, "Stand by the President," must be a reality. And largely, it would seem, it is no such reality in Washington today. . It the powers which the President must have, and which he will receive, sooner or later, are abused, be, and his party will be fittingly rebuked by the sovereign people at the approprl ' ate time. If they are well exercised, the country will rally round him as a Lincoln. But if Senators and Congressmen and officials, who keep muddying the legislative and administrative waters, think they can survive the ultimate Luraa of Cold Brick Schtmos For tha Small Investor. Will persous with money never leiirn bow to take oaie of It? Will they never Kimrd themselves acalnst the horde of tricksters who make a busi ness of taking advantage of the cred ulous and csiHvlally of vrediiioiis wo men J . Bear In mind that no one will make money for you when he can make It for himself. If he offers to k!v you the key to wealth, snsiieet him, for such keys are kept by their possessory and are not given away to strangers. The postolBce a year or two ago showed that over $1..000.000 had been lost by persons who listened to the gold brick schemers, but the game still goes ou (despite the vlgllum-c of the postotlU-e department nud the passage of protective measures, known as "blue sky laws," by many states. Will the people never loam to dis count the alluring literature which tbeso shysters send out and which Is written for them by some of the sharp est and brightest writers of our day. whose services can be easily obtained for a few dollar..? I advise my renders who receive these tempting propositions to send them at once to the postmaster gen eral at Washington for investigation. That is the business of the postotllcf department, and It will be only too happy to lake up such mutters. Small investors are luirticularly the victims of these bunko schemes, for the false notion prevails that a man or woman with a small amount of money cannot buy high class Invest ment securities such as successful in vestors prefer. This is enroucoils. An investment can now lie made In the best of paying securities with as small an amount as $10 through the partial payment plau. which is readily under stood, though the term may sound f orm Ida I ile.

Just think of one small piece of lead, probably weighing less than an ounce. that cost the world some 100,000,000. 000 in money, probably f 100.000,000.000 In property, more t ha u" 11,000,000 lives and Individual suffering and loss im possible of computation a bit of lead that embroiled In war Germany, Austria-Hungary, Britain, France.

That small piece of lead was fired from a pistol in the bunds of a crack brained youth of Serviun nativity Into the body of the heir to the Austrian throne. The troubles arising from this mad act and its punishment set fire to the powder trains in Europe nud led to hostile act after hostile act and final ly and suddenly to open war in 1014. That little piece of lead should lie preserved as n memorial to nil fufffrv j generations and as the costliest thing j mankind baa ever known. It would 1 liecome the greatest silent teacher the j world has ever seen. It would teach restraint for the wenk minded and vio lent; It would teach the Importance of , minor acts and things; it would teach peace as no costly monument, no book : of horrors, no' painting of tragedy could ever teach If.

Korso has lost his trigger Anger, ho was accepted lc the marines by special consent after having walked from Itlugbuintou, N. Y., to Washington to Join the corps. running the Sox, picked him up. Joe merely was used for practice that yoar and was sent back to the West ern league, from where he soon grad uated to the Pittsburg Pirates. No less an authority that Chirk Fraser. the one time star pitcher, proclaimed Joe an excellent outfield er, one who would make his mark if ever given the chance, but Joe was discarded after a v ear's effort and relegated to the American association where he immediately started In all over,. batting at a .300 clip and steal ing bases at random. The Cubs grabbed Joe and he was doing well when Fred Mitchell was engaged to pilot the Chicago club. Joe was sent to the Braves In the deal. He hasn't been paralyzing the opposition with hits, but he has been playing decidedly good baseball. A little encouragement will go a long way with Kelly. He would be a star wlrh the proper man to give him a chance. Perhaps Stalling is the man to do It. NOTICE OF CONTEST.

X - ' By H. C. Hamilton, -(United Praia Staff Correapondent.) NEW. YORK, July 26. The case of Joe Kelly is one of the strange twists of fate that once upon a time grabbed Jack Knight, tielng him tight, and threw him tor a great loss. ' Joe always has been one the great est stars of minor leaguedom. Away back in the days when Allen Soth oron, Mike Reagan, George Sisler and other stars were wondering if they ever would be able to fill even a minor league uniform, Joe was hit ting them far and wide. In addition he was establishing records as a base runner. Kelly has had several chances at the big show, always to fall down. He's growing old as ball players' ages go, but he's still up there trying his mightiest to convince the big timers he has the punch. Joe began as a ball player back in the Western association in the palmy days of baseball, In a short time he graduated Into a class 'A circuit, where his playing was of such a decided high class character he was sold bis second year to the Chi cago White Sox. Joe had battled his way into the select .300 class of hitters in a class A league and had fallen only slightly I behind 'the league's record' for stolen , bases when Jimmy Callahan, then BIG LUSCIOUS MUSCAT GRAPES and a most varied and complete line of Fruits and Vegetables F.
