SOCIALISTS COMMIT HARAKIRI.
Till' socialist party lias ousted diaries Kdward Russell
leeaiise lie did not resign front the American mission
to Russia headed hy Klihu Root, of which lie was appointed
a meinher hy President Wilson, when requested to hv so
cialist party officials.
.Mr. Russell is to he congratulated hecause of his pa
triotism in placing his country ahove his party, lie is fur
ther to he felicitated for having had his relations with an
unpatriotic and un-American organization severed.
Jt will he noticed that the expulsion of Russell comes
at a time when he is in Russia upon a government mission
find is designed to discredit him with Russian socialists
and cmharrasts the mission and the American government.
It is part and parrel of the (icrinan propaganda the social
ists are engaged in promoting.
The socialist parlies of Kngland, Prance and (lermanv
are loyal to their governments ,hut the socialist partv in
America is disloyal to the United States. It is comple'telv
in control of the llillquits, Mergers, and other German
agents and is hcing used as an instrument in behalf of Ger
many. This explains the complete collapse of the partv
the desertion of it hy all patriotic Americans when the ma
chinery was captured by the German war partv, which is
financing the socialist and anarchist parties as well as the
various peace movements, both real and fake.
At its recent convention at St. Louis, controlled bv Hill-,
quir ami bcrgcr, treasonable
ln-iif;iiij; i tic socialist pari io:
Continuous, active and public opposition to the war. thru demonstra
lions, mass petitions and all other means within our power.
'I'nylolding opposition to all proposed legislation for military or Indus
trial conscription. ,
"Should such conscription be forced
to continuous erforts for the repeal of such lnws and to the support of all
mass movements in opposition to conscription."
Yet only a few yeai-s ago, this same neaee-lovin- T?cr-
ger made the following declaration in his .Milwaukee newspaper:
"In view of the plutocratic law-making of the present day. it is easy to
predict that the safety and hope of this country will finally lie In one direc
tion only that of a violent and blood v revolution.
"Therefore, I say, each of the ui)0,0i)i
00U worklngnien who instinctively incline our way, should, besides doing
much reading and still nioro thinking, also havo n good rifle and the neces
;ary rounds of ammunition in his home and be prepared to hack up his
ballot with his rlgle If necessary."
The expression of such
abandonment of the party by the Rensons, Gaylords, Si
mons and other intellectuals so with only the Germans
left, the future of the socialist party in America is of few
davs and full of trouble.
HOW TO END
SlGNOU Marconi, the inventor of wireless telegraphy
and a member of the Italian commission visiting Amer
ica, has pointed out how the United States can win the war
for the entente allies at minimum cost of men and money
by construction and operation of an immense flotilla of
aeroplanes. He states:
"The airplane is an enormous factor In this conflict and will, I believe,
grow even more decisive. The I'nited States will be looked to for this con
tribution in a great measure. It will require an hundred thousand flying
machines to subordinate the other methods of war to tho air fighting; 10,
000 would help mightily, but they would not settle the war; 100,000, 1 think
would.
"If an overwhelming force of airplanes could be mustered so that the
enemy fliers would be driven from the air, tliey would be helpless in ranging
and directing artillery, and would, of course, be at an incalculable disadvan
tage. Xews from the battle front has told of the growing im
portance of the aeroplane in the future of the war. Not
only is the airship the eyes of the army, but it can be made
most effective as a weapon of offense.
Were the kaiser able to send even a fleet of UKX) aero
planes against London, there would be little left of the
metropolis. The damage that can be inflicted even by a
doen has proven enormous. The Germans, have used the
new weapon principally as an illegitimate instrument of
terrorism, but as a legitimate weapon fur the (lest met ion
of forts, arsenals, navies and armies, the airship has un
limited possibilities.
With such an enormous fleet of planes, the enemy could
be driven entirely from the air. All the German munition
factories, shipyards and submarine bases could be de
stroyed, l'.ven the warships locked up in the Keil canal
and the fortress of Helgoland could be wiped out by the
tons of explosives dropped from the sky. Berlin could be
raided as easily as London has been and while defensive
warfare would claim a percentage of destruction, it would
be slight both in lives and money to the invaders.
The I'nited States can become militarily effective
quickest by concentrating energies along the lines of air
plane construction and the training of aviators. Hundreds
of automobile and other factories could be transformed
into airplane factories. A few weeks intensive training
for flyers will suffice and the cost of such a program will
not exceed a billion dollars.

Tiio juice of two fresh lemons
strained into a bottle containing three
ounees of orchard white makes a
whole (iiarter pint of the most re
markable lemon skin .beautlffer at

small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should ho taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth bo

ener and beautifier.
Just try it! Make up a quarter
pint of this sweetly fragrant lemon
lotion and massage it daily into the
face, neck, arms and hands. It should
naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen, and bring out the hidden
roses and beauty of any skin. It is
wonderful for rough, red hands.
Your druggist will sell three ounces
of orchard white at little cost, and
any grocer will supply the lemons.
