fcOMBS AND DOLLARS
TIIlC real object of the frenzied preparedness propa
ganda so earefidl.veultivated to piungtitlie nation
iilto a niaelstroni of debt and' militarism is the plunder of
imperialism This is ealididly set forth by the Washing
ton (D. C.) Herald, which does not resort to the hyster
ical, hypocritical prating pretence of patriotism of the
.lingoes and has the merit of frankly and honestly stating
the truth as follews:
Wo (tho United States) shull dispute thin (commercial) leadership1
cither with Drltnln or Germany, nn the caBo may be, when tho opportuni
ty presents Itself. That Is why we have kept out or the strangle. It fa to
our advantage that our potential rlvaln shall weaken each other iih much
as possible. This Is what nil of our apostles of preparedness have In their
hearts, and nil flic (alk that oilr post-prandlal orators and statesmen put
forth about our objects being purely defensive and our having no Interests
In the Eastern hemisphere, and to on. Is Just so much hypocritical balder
dash. Wo deslro to bo u (treat nation and to hate oilr "place In the nun."
which Is Just n synonym for "bossing tho nhow," and, though we nre not
so truculent or so objectionable about It, our aspirations In this respect
nro not a whit different from those that Onrmnny has published broadenst
to the 'world. In living up to these aspirations we nro acting naturally,
legitimately nnd sanely, and thcreforo It Is ridiculous to be dishonest
about it mill to attempt to conceal ambitions which wo nre rather scared
of because we do not fully understand that they are Inevitable.
At the close of the present struggle we shall bo In a position. In all
respects but arms, and the will to nrm, to control the destinies of the ter
restrial globe. . . . We must arm. ,. . tloiubs and dollars are the only
things that count today. Wo have plenty of the one. Let us Iriy In a good
supply of the other and blast a path to world leadership as soon as an op
portunity presents Itself.
It is a good thing to undei'staud the real aims and mo
tives of the phindcrbund that is attempting to Prussianize
America by "preparedness" preparedness to crush a
Belgium or it Serbia, if necessary, to secure "our place in
the sun," preparedness to forcibly setae Mexico aild South
America as spheres of influence for exploitation. The
world is a melon for our wealthy k'isure class, aikt we only
need a big army and navy to cut it at the people's expelise.
"Bombs and dollars"'are all that is needed we are
told and the people are asked to stipplv both. Bombs
and dollars ni id blood. What are world-wide destruction
and human misery compared to the profits of the plundcr
bund The ideals of the fathers of the republic must go.
What are liberty, justice and equality compared to
"bossing the show" the bosses, of course, being our own
bosses? "Bombs and dollars are the only things that
count today" ill the preparedness folly.
Is a "place in the sun" really Worth while? Ts the sun
shine of injustice that glares across the highway of com
mercial imperialism to be compared with the shining light
of the path of the just, "that shineth more and more unto
tho perfect day'"

ond and the remaining teams the
third. Class A team members would
receive gold medals, class II sliver,
and clans C bronze. Cash prizes
woiild be dispensed with In the na
tional team matohoit.

YOUR BRONCHIAL TUBES
When a cold settles in the bronchial
j tubes, with that weakening, tickling
cough, immediate treatment is very
important. The breath seems shorter
because of mucous obstructions; mil
nlly fcvcrisprescnt,yotir head j.us with
every cough and your chest may aclic.
This is no time for experimenting or
delay you must get Scott's Emulsion
at once to drive out the cold which
started the trouble, anil it will check
the cough by aiding the healing pro
cess of tiie enfeebled membranes.
If you have any symptoms of bron
chitis, or even a stubborn cold, always
remember that Scott's Emulsion has
been relieving this trouble for forty
years, it is tree from alcohol or drugs.
