MEMORIAL DAY.
MEMORIAL DAY finds lie natimi liioiirniiifj Tur tlio
first tinio for her sons win lmve fallen in frccdoin.'s
behalf in foreign hinds. Jlein-efoi'tli we shall annually iay
homage to tliose Ainreieaiis who have cheerfully given
their llieir lives In make the old world free as for over half
a century we have laid loving trihiite on the graves of those,
who fell to make the new world free.
The war, as far as America is concerned, has hardly he
gaii, yet our casualties already number thousands and by
next .Memorial Day, will total hundreds of thousands. The
debt that we owe' those who give llieir all can never be
liaid but the nation will always hold dearest the nieinoJ
rics of those fallen.
America will iiav the full
ol Us cost even inoilgn niai price oe minions who must
spread "on fame's eternal camping ground their silent
tents. harlli never produced greater heroes lighting lor
a nobler cause, writing with their life-blood the most im
portant chapter in the world's history to free unborn gen
eral ions from tyranny.
Memorial Day is no longer a civil war' day no longer
dedicated lo the dead of the north only. It, is a world war
day, where north and south and east and west unite as
one to scalier iiiossonis 01 love
of those who have given all to make, the world free a day
where noi l herners and southerners stand shoulder to
shoulder gaing across 1 he great ocean upon their sons and
grandsons fighting shoulder to shoulder against the coun-
i r y V; foe.
Memorial Day is no longer even an American day. It
is this year widely observed in allied lands and ere the
guns cease t linndering over the devasted regions of sunny
France, it will have become a day sacred in all nations to
those who have fallen that civilization niav endure that
"government ol' 1he people,
Ic" shall not perish.
HUNGARIANS ALSO TRUE HUNS.

tionals of Serbia, Montenegro and Rumania.
The ex-appropriation in "Hungary includes, besides
I ransferral of non-Magyars from their homes, the substitu
tion of Magyar language for Serbian, (Votian, Rumanian
or Slovak in schools; establishment of Magyar bishopies
and dismissal of non-Magyar clergy; Magyar control of
property, so that the government can at any time on any
pretext dispossess the non-Magyar owners. ' The object
frankly stated, is to insure and perpetuate Magyar' rule.
The Prussian ''Teutonic Knights" tried the same
scheme in the l'.altie provinces five hundred years ago
but it never Prussianized the oppressed people. Prussia
has tried it for over a century oij Poland, strangled, but
never killed the Polish nation, (lerniauy has tried it, for
half a century on Alsace-Lorraine and Alsace-Lorraine is
still loyal to France. iermany and Austria have practiced
it on liohemia since the fall of John lluss, and Pohemia
still is aiiti-( Icrnian. Austria is trying it again in the eou
iiered parts of Italy and (iermany in conipiered Russia
but oppression never won a nation and only massacre can
exterminate one. Eventually the conquered absorb the
conquerors.
It is however, the accepted autocratic method and ex
plains why all the world is fighting the central tyrannies.

are t'ititin against time and are
throwing every nnce of weight of
Iran, jiower into the Ktruu'le.
On tlie center the enemy has nain
pushed forward, but hif- efforts to
broaden his advancing IVunt have
n;el with less success. The allied
wiiis have been obliged to ive some
ground. This action was carried out
slowly and the full price was exacted
f rom the enemy.
Soissons lias jjone and (lie llritisli
have fallen baek tuWiird liheinis but
in. either ease the enemy has won
only a few miles of territory.
In competent circles there is quiet
confidence in the outcome and sins
are not lacking that the advancing
waves shortly will be sieinmed. X'nity
of eominaud puts Ihe allies in a bet
ter position than they were in the
March offensive. Then Ihe French
reinforcements come into action on
Ihe -third day, and on Ihe eighth Ihe
(lermans were slopped definitely. To
day things should f;o more quickly.
Tlie Germans have been obliged to
have their tfuns on the northern side
of the original line which can be
crossed only at a certain number of
points which an; highly vulnerable
to allied airplanes.
Tlie enemy is thus prevented from
reaping the full benefits of his rapid
advam-e.
Meanwhile the allied reserves are
massing at certain points without
any of the confusion that attended
Ihe similar movement in March.
So well perfected are the u mince
meats that an entire division can be
moved by motor truck from the
Soniuie to Kheims in -IS hours and ur
rivo without a button missing.

WITH TIIK AM KKICAN AKMY IX
FliANCK, May 2. (By tlie Asso
ciated Press.) Confirmation lias
been received that the German air
plane brought down in flames on
Monday near St. Miehicl was u vic
tim of four American airmen work
ing together as u "flying circus. "
The American "circus" was com
posed of Lieutenant George F. Fish
er of Chicago, Kdward Curtis of
Ilochcster, Kdward Buford of Nash
ville and Alexander McLauahan of
Philadelphia. f
Because of the nature of the fight
it is impossible to credit any one avi
ator with the victory. Lieutenant
Fisher, however, got in Ihe finishing
stroke, firing the last shots at the
German before the enemy machine
'broke into flames and following down
the flaming plane for as long a time
as was possible.
The game observer in the German
machine, although plunging to certain
death, kept his gun working amid the
flaming swirl as he fell, training ti
first at one American machine and
then another.

WASHINGTON, May 30. Memor
ial day this year, carrying a deeper
meanlnR because of the fuller parti
cipation of the United States In the
war and more signiflccut because of
the new American graves in France,
was oboyod today by the American
people als "a day of public humilia
tion, prayer and fasting", in accord
ance with the proclamation ot Pre
sident Wilson Issued in response to a
resolution of congress asking that
such a day bo set apart.
While in no manner was the honor
annually shown to the veterans of
past wars lessened, yet the thought
of the nation largely was centered
on the battlefields of France where
the German military machine Is en
gaged in another drive against the
forces of democracy.'
Tho American troops are aiding
In the attempt to stem the German
tide was a source of satisfaction.
in Washington the spirit of the
president's proclamation was gener
ally carried out. Tho president plan
ned to attend church services this
morning and this afternoon.
. Both bouses of congress stood ad
journed. Practically all government
offices were closed.
TO MAKE JACKSON
COUNTY WHEATLESS
The, federal food , administration
has urged the county food adminis
tration to exert increased efforts to
mako Jackson ccuuty wlicatless. It
is tho desire of the administration to
start on this basis June 1. Tlie fol
lowing statement was issued last
night by the administration:
The federal food administrator
asks that we resolve to make Jackson
county wheatless beginning June 1st.
We therefore request all citizens to
use substitutes and limit their con
sumption ot white wheat flour to 2 Mi
pounds per month. This practically
means using none except as a hinder.
There is no limit placed on barley,
corn, rice, potatoe and rye flour. The
time has come when we must save
tho wheat flour for our soldiers and
allies in Europe. Jackson county has
not failed to do more than was asked
and no request lias been made that
was more imperatively necessary.

"WASHINGTON, May 30 Govern
ment war expenses, including loans
to tho allies, will run above $1,500,-
000,000 this month, and set a new
high record for any belligerent na
tion. Expenditures reported today by
the treasury show taat the govern
ment's outlays in the last month
have taken a jump of more thnn
$300,000,000 above the normal rate
in tho past, and they promise to. go
steadily higher In the next six
months.
Tentative estimates now are that
$11,000,000,000 will be spent be
tween next July 1, the opening of tho
new fiscal year, and Dec. 31, six
months later, and the greater -part of
this must be raised by the fourth lib
erty loan in October or November,
which President Wilson In bis ad
