It may fairly be said that our busi- ness recovery thus far has been Ies on account of the war than in-spi- to of the war. Our great crops, together with the need of replenishing manu- factured supplies of all kinds after a long period of slack production, and the encouraging understanding and cordiality arrived at between business and government, all seemed to creato the groundwork of a new period of development such as no merely po- litical events could altogether destroy. Tho outburst of war nipped In tho bud what appeared to be a genuine busi- ness revival. Now the revival is com- ing again, with a prospect of growth which the war will help in some re- spects, and hinder in others. Our manufacturing exports are now steadily Increasing, and unless Inter- rupted are likely to be a much bigger factor in foreign trade history during the next few months. But however much stuff we may sell to Kuropo for milltarj' purposes, we wish that Eu- rope would understand that we'd be better off in a business way if the war would stop, and that even If our pros- perity depended solely on the war we'd work and pray for peace just the same. fit 5 is tewm .n 0 ?

A speaker at the convention of the National Liquor Dealers' association declared: "Prohibition is a wolf in sheep's clothing, a destroyer and devourer wearing tho garments of temperance and roaring with the tongue and trueulence of the tempest." Another speaker upheld alcohol as tho best friend ef the human race, tho source of public and private vigor, health and morals, and explained that it was prohibition that filled tho prisons, almshouses and insane asy-lum- s. This is turning the tables on tho temperance reformers with a ven- geance. The wildest prohibition lead- ers have never arraigned King Alco- hol with more severity. The liquor men seem to be catching bombs thrown by super-heate- d prohibition- ists and tossing them back into the enemy's trenches. These denuncia- tions are liko the retort of the col- ored lad who, after being subjected to an outburst of prolonged, eloquent and profane abuse, economized ef- fort and thought by shrieking back: "All dem tings what you sas I is, you Is dem!" This method, needless to say. Is not tho best way to stem the tide of pro- hibition. COFFIN-NAILS- ." IjOs Angeles is conducting a cisaret clinic at police headquarters. Tho method of treatment has proved very effective, in -- fact, a posit ' cure. A Los Angeles paper Bays: From early Saturday evening until late at night, the corridors of the building were obstructed by a line of young men and boys and there were many among the waiting patients who had at- tained " middle age. At 8 o'clock the crowd had become so largo that tho line extended some dis- tance out on the sidewalk, and a patrolman had to be stationed there to keep the passage open, so eager were the cigaret smok- ers to rid themselves of the habit. The most noticeable thing is the ev- ident desire of young men and boys to rid themselves of a bad habit. Smoking cigarets harms the youth more in that it is a stumbling block in his climb up the ladder of success, than in its direct results. The busi- ness world has no place for the ciga- ret "fiend." Yet, a generation ago, the boy of 18 who did not smoke cig- arets was considered effeminate by his companions. That now they stand in line for hours to obtain a treatment that will rid them of the habit shows a moral improvement that promises large things for tho regeneracy of America's youths. Prominent Mexicans, speaking on Wilson's note, are unanimous in tho opinion that the United States inter- vention would mean union of all Mex factions against Uncle Sam. Make 'em a good bluff, YVoodrow. and then re- fuse to fight. Union on something is what they need. "4 50,000 women in New York told their real age to the census enumer- ators the first day of census taking," says a dispatch. Yes they did not.

The annual announcement of the award was made on May tho date of the death of Dr. Ricketta. In mem- ory of Dr. Ricketts, the board of trustees of the university has named the laboratory of the departments of hygiene and bacteriology and path- ology the Howard Taylor Ricketts laboratorj-- .

UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PUBLISHES NEW PERIODICAL The first number of an important new periodical in a special Meld is an- nounced for publication by the Uni- versity of Chicago Press under the title of the Quarterly Journal of Pub- lic Speaking. The editors of this new Journal, which will serve as the official organ of the National Association of Academic Teachers of Public Speak- ing, announce a list of contributions to the first number which illustrate tho tcope and vitality of its editorial policy. Th list includes such sub jects as "The Forum as an Educative Agency," by It. L. Lyman of the Uni versity of Chicago; "Faculty Help in Intercollegiate Contests," by Frank H. Lane of the University of Pitts burgh; "The Need for Research," by J. A. Wlnans of Cornell university; "The National Association," by J. M. O'Neill of the University of Wisconsin, and "State Organization for Contests in Public Speaking." by Edwin Dubois Shurter of the University of Texas. One of the valuable features for future numbers promised by the editors is a symposium on methods for the various subjects taught in the speech art?. The new publication is expected to meet an urgent need in its special field and to influence widely methods and standards of teaching public speakinic, not only in our higher edu- cational institutions but in secondary schools as well. wiiy sur: was swrnr.

IT is apparent now as never before, not barring the Hay market affair, when free speech, as one of our in- alienable rights, has Its drawbacks.

Several sets of plans have been sub- mitted and a revised set of blue prints nreoared bv Lowe and Bollenbacher, architects of Chicago, will be consid ered at the next meeting of the board of trustees. These plans arc on an elaborate scale and at most are only tentative They suggest the purchase of the southwestern corner and t orest pi. The architects would leave the library, student building, Maxwell, science and biology halls as they are. They would have Owen hall taken away and a double building placed there with a connecting arch through which tho crowds could go to the athletic field. This building would be for the school of law. The chemistry building would be enlarged and also Kirkwood hall by the completion of buildings which would look to the east. Tho sites occupied by the buildings at the southwest corner of the pres- ent campus would be used for fine arts and music. Immediately cast of this building would bo two others of large size which would be used for the language departments. East of biology and south of science would be an immense structure for the school of education. East of that would be a club building and east of that and immediately west of Forest pi. would be the site of tho president's hou.c. Make Jordan llclil a Lake. The chief feature of the entire grounds, according to the plans of Lowe and Bollenbacher, would be the administrative auditorium building and outdoor theater which would bo erected north of the Kirkwood observ- atory. This building would be so large that it would require the tear- ing down of the observatoo'. These plans, liko those of R. P. Daggett & Co.. also submitted to the trustees, provide that the women's dormitories should bo on E. Third st.. Immediately east of Fores pi., and that the men's dormitories should bo north of the proposed new gymnasium for men. The plans provide that Jordan field shall be made into a lake. The space between the library, the student building, Maxwell hall, and Seventh st. on the north would be used as gardens. East of Jordan Meld tho space would be used as a number of bawball Ilelds. Tho women's athletic field would be farther to tho east and south, near the women's dormitories. The plans show the great possibilities of the future campus and emphasize the fact that tho board of trustees did a wise thing in purchasing the ad- ditional tracts of land which are now a part of the US acres.

It is filled with illustra- tions and tho names of all people whose faces appear in it are printed so that identification is easy, only l.oo copies have been printed and there will be no second edition, de- spite the fact that nearly all the cop- ies have bet n subscribed for. Th'N year s annual is conservative in all its details. There is nothing flashy about the hook, either in its binding or its interior. Tho pares and title pa ires havo simple and ef- fective decorations and nothing elab- orate or overdrawn. The mechanical work of the year b,.ok Is as near per- fect as is pos-'ibl- o. The price is J.30. The board of business managers of the Arl utu will hold a meeting soon to wind up the affairs of the year. Tho :inancial outlook at the present time is very good. Thcro will prob- ably be a surplus.

Gormany is considering "what to do fr the irrr.it army of widows and orphans left by the war," and the only folution seems to be to Ket work fur them! All the other belligerent countries ill have this panic problem, and tho solution will bo tho same hard labor for womon and children. You cannot figure out of it anything lc.-- than ra- cial deterioration. War's awful effects last through many years of p ace, and tho nation thiit docs not prepare it-f- elf to preserve its peace is foolish. AI'IIAID TO LI7T (il)KMANY WIN. Tho motives of Komo of tho neutral nations that have been balancing themselves on the war fence seem to have been misjudged. It was assum- ed until lately that they were merely waiting to see which way victory was Inclined. so they could jump to tho winning' side and share the spoils. They are eacer enough for spoils, un- doubtedly, but It Is becoming plain that they are not altogether sordid. Italy, fl3 we have soon, entered tho war not when here enemy was down and out, but when Austria, after months of hard luck, was "coming bhek." when Germany's show of pow- er was greater than ever, when Rus- sia was meeting with disaster in the Carpathians, when France was mak- ing no headway, when Great Britain was marking time torn by internal dissension, when tho alies had been seriously checked at tho Dardanelles. And now, on the heels of her entrance, and while tho allies fortunes are still uncertain, it U reported that Kulgaria and Koumania are near to making tho same decision. It appears that ono of the strongest motives actuating these nations is the fear that Germany and Austria will win. They are convinced that the defoat of tho allies would be a mis- fortune for themselves. They am frankly aliaid of the central Euro- pean powers, believing that regardless of promisoy, a Germanic victory would bo followed by aggressions against them. The diplomatic and military methods of Germany in the past year have put nearly all the small nations of Kurope on their guard. You may call tho roll of Roumania. Bulgaria, Greece. Switzerland, Holland. Norway, Sweden and Denmark. several of them traditionally pro-Germ- an and linked to Germany by race, without finding today one dependable friend. Holland is even more afraid of Ger- many than the Balkan states are afraid of Austria.' and may yet bo persuaded to join the allies. Roumania and Bulgaria haT .rn bargaining with Russia, :f coun-e- . The former wants a pledge that if she wins the Roumanian part of Hun- gary she may keep it. Bulgaria wants back tho land Roumania stole from h r in tho second Balkan war. the land Feria gained at the irie time by and-bagi- n her. and tho nst of tho Turkish territory that she won by conquest and was cheated of. But above all. these nations ami the Greek nation, too desire to preserve themselves from iho menace to their national life which they believe would nMiie with success of tho Germanic al- lies. They want to see the power of Germany and Austria curbed oven more than they want ac-es.-ion- s of ter- ritory, and they are willing to assume responsibilities and make heavy sacrifices to help curb it. I is thi fact which redeems the bargainings of these neutrals from much of its sordidncss. It also serves rs an Illuminating commentary on the world's judgment of Germany and Austria. A nation must have trained k pretty bad reputation when luT iriends are driven to fiuht h r be- cause they dare not let her win. XO KIlAli PKOITT IS All. The Kuropean belligerents, especial- ly the two that are interfering most with our commerce, are convinced that wo are getting rich out of the war, ami that conviction has a good deal to do with heir petulant treat- ment of our trade protests. If wo are getting rich, it isn't mere-r- y because we're"4 profiting, even unin- tentionally, from the misfortunes of the warring powers. Most American economists agree that we should havo been in a, better business condition than we are if there bad been no war. That view is supported by the fact that every hiot of peace sends up the prices of American securities in tho stock market, and eery eent that seems to portend a prolongation of the struggle has a "bearish" iniluence. Foreign trade figures sweep away any misconception as to the share that war orders havo had In reviving American business. According to the statement of the federal department of commerce, our total exports of manufactured articles for the war period so far are b ss than for similar periods in peaceful 3 cars. The net Increase in our exports has been due sf lcly to tho rrrwi ketir: of our big wheat s irrbis. The war helped to make that m trket. to be sure, an! yet that adantuc- - was c .ur.t traded by ?.o crippling effect of the war on the cotton industry. our enormous fa-Vra- bie balance of trade has been due WpIa IV hTf been In onth liexnl 15 yeisr work as jrood at our price.' as you can .uui cnowys uhiti: mcowns o ItHIDGi: WOKK N?0 HiHH SFT TI.l.Til O O ".TITXKYS" AM) MORALS. No one was surprised, we feel safe to sa at Mayor Keller's disclosure Saturday, that It was the street car company, rather than the public that has been demanding the regulation of the "Jitney" buses. It beats all how-considerat- e these magnates are of the public safety and the public morals, which they are advancing as reasons why the "jitney" owner should be placed under the ban. Note this for once ,as among the advices that they furnish: It is rumored, though uncon- firmed, that one 'jitney' driver took a young couple out Into the country for illegitimate purposes. "Well, it is not only rumored, but confirmed, that is scores of cases, young couples have taken the street ears to the city limits, and proceeded from thence to illegitimate associa- tions. The court records are full of such confirmations. And neither did time need to await the arrival of the "Jitney" bus. to find automobiles hauling people about from disreputa- ble design. Gar owners, sometimes of the "very respectable" sort, have been known to "tote" young girls to tho very mouth of hell, in their splcndidly cquipped limosines. et cetera. But we are glad to observe the street car magnates looking at the moral sido of the issue. We think henceforth the city will be safe. And then that question of the pub- lic safety. We read that Saturday night, a "jitney" bus struck ar. east-boun- d Iike Shore train, wrecking the "jitney" and spraining the owner's wrist. The driver was unable to stop because of the wet condition of the pavement. That is different of course, than the tracks of the street car company be- ing soaped, as alleged, at the time of the killing of that man near Misha-wak- a last week. We hope that the Lake Shore train made a safe escape. but we note that another automobile owner, not of a "jitney." drove his car into a Grand Trunk train Saturday night. It was a bad night for the railroads and sure they are in need of protection, but, remember dearie, they need it only as against the "jitneys." PIIMOCKAGY AND UNITY. The excitement caused by the resig- nation of Sec'y Bryan from the cabi- net. Kreat as it has been, is a mere flury compared with the political storm in Great Britain. If. instead of one man dropping out of the cabiiet without anter or recrimination. it were found necessary for the presi- dent to dismiss about half his official familv and fill their places with re- - publicans in order to irain enough pub- lic support to carry on the govern- ment, w e should get some idea of w hat England has been going through. The American people today are incomparably more harmonious than the British, our government has far more faithful support for its foreign policies than the British government has. even after its reorganization. It is natural that there should bo considerable discussion in both coun- tries. It is the usual thing for dem- ocratic countries to carry on great undertakings with fuss and fury, wast- ing vast energy in quarrel and debate. It is only an autocracy that runs wel' in time of peril, though Franco, the most turbulent of highly-civilize- d democracies, has been shocked into j uupieif 11 iwt 1 1 1 1111 1 j . 1 iv saving ia t about democracies is that they havo so much native energy and initiative, so much sheer soul-powe- r, that they i sually pull through in spite of their lost effort.

It may fairly be said that our busi-ness recovery thus far has been Ieson account of the war than in-spi-

of the war. Our great crops, togetherwith the need of replenishing manu-factured supplies of all kinds after along period of slack production, andthe encouraging understanding andcordiality arrived at between businessand government, all seemed to creatothe groundwork of a new period ofdevelopment such as no merely po-

litical events could altogether destroy.Tho outburst of war nipped In tho budwhat appeared to be a genuine busi-ness revival. Now the revival is com-ing again, with a prospect of growthwhich the war will help in some re-

steadily Increasing, and unless Inter-rupted are likely to be a much biggerfactor in foreign trade history duringthe next few months.

TOSSING IlOO.i: IO Ml IS.A speaker at the convention of the

National Liquor Dealers' associationdeclared:

"Prohibition is a wolf in sheep'sclothing, a destroyer and devourerwearing tho garments of temperanceand roaring with the tongue andtrueulence of the tempest."

Another speaker upheld alcohol astho best friend ef the human race,tho source of public and private vigor,health and morals, and explained thatit was prohibition that filled thoprisons, almshouses and insane asy-lum- s.

This is turning the tables on thotemperance reformers with a ven-geance. The wildest prohibition lead-ers have never arraigned King Alco-hol with more severity. The liquormen seem to be catching bombsthrown by super-heate- d prohibition-ists and tossing them back into theenemy's trenches. These denuncia-tions are liko the retort of the col-

ored lad who, after being subjectedto an outburst of prolonged, eloquentand profane abuse, economized ef-

fort and thought by shrieking back:"All dem tings what you sas I is,you Is dem!"

ident desire of young men and boysto rid themselves of a bad habit.Smoking cigarets harms the youthmore in that it is a stumbling blockin his climb up the ladder of success,than in its direct results. The busi-

i:labokati: schemi: ofCAMPUS IS CONSIDERED

Indiana university i -- looking farinto the future in attempting to provide a campus scheme that will boadequate for all time.

Several sets of plans have been sub-mitted and a revised set of blue printsnreoared bv Lowe and Bollenbacher,architects of Chicago, will be considered at the next meeting of the boardof trustees.

These plans arc on an elaboratescale and at most are only tentativeThey suggest the purchase of thesouthwestern corner and t orest pi.The architects would leave the library,student building, Maxwell, science andbiology halls as they are. They wouldhave Owen hall taken away and adouble building placed there with aconnecting arch through which thocrowds could go to the athletic field.This building would be for the schoolof law. The chemistry building wouldbe enlarged and also Kirkwood hallby the completion of buildings whichwould look to the east.

Tho sites occupied by the buildingsat the southwest corner of the pres-ent campus would be used for finearts and music. Immediately cast ofthis building would bo two others oflarge size which would be used forthe language departments. East ofbiology and south of science would bean immense structure for the schoolof education. East of that would be aclub building and east of that andimmediately west of Forest pi. wouldbe the site of tho president's hou.c.

Make Jordan llclil a Lake.The chief feature of the entire

grounds, according to the plans ofLowe and Bollenbacher, would be theadministrative auditorium buildingand outdoor theater which would boerected north of the Kirkwood observ-atory. This building would be solarge that it would require the tear-ing down of the observatoo'. Theseplans, liko those of R. P. Daggett &Co.. also submitted to the trustees,provide that the women's dormitoriesshould bo on E. Third st.. Immediatelyeast of Fores pi., and that the men'sdormitories should bo north of theproposed new gymnasium for men.The plans provide that Jordan fieldshall be made into a lake. The spacebetween the library, the studentbuilding, Maxwell hall, and Seventhst. on the north would be used asgardens. East of Jordan Meld thospace would be used as a number ofbawball Ilelds. Tho women's athleticfield would be farther to tho east andsouth, near the women's dormitories.The plans show the great possibilitiesof the future campus and emphasizethe fact that tho board of trustees dida wise thing in purchasing the ad-ditional tracts of land which are nowa part of the US acres.

All the other belligerent countriesill have this panic problem, and tho

solution will bo tho same hard laborfor womon and children. You cannotfigure out of it anything lc.-- than ra-

cial deterioration. War's awful effectslast through many years of p ace, andtho nation thiit docs not prepare it-f- elf

to preserve its peace is foolish.

AI'IIAID TO LI7T (il)KMANY WIN.Tho motives of Komo of tho neutral

nations that have been balancingthemselves on the war fence seem tohave been misjudged. It was assum-ed until lately that they were merelywaiting to see which way victory wasInclined. so they could jump to thowinning' side and share the spoils.They are eacer enough for spoils, un-doubtedly, but It Is becoming plainthat they are not altogether sordid.

Italy, fl3 we have soon, entered thowar not when here enemy was downand out, but when Austria, aftermonths of hard luck, was "comingbhek." when Germany's show of pow-er was greater than ever, when Rus-sia was meeting with disaster in theCarpathians, when France was mak-ing no headway, when Great Britainwas marking time torn by internaldissension, when tho alies had beenseriously checked at tho Dardanelles.And now, on the heels of her entrance,and while tho allies fortunes are stilluncertain, it U reported that Kulgariaand Koumania are near to making thosame decision.

It appears that ono of the strongestmotives actuating these nations isthe fear that Germany and Austriawill win. They are convinced that thedefoat of tho allies would be a mis-fortune for themselves. They amfrankly aliaid of the central Euro-pean powers, believing that regardlessof promisoy, a Germanic victory wouldbo followed by aggressions againstthem. The diplomatic and militarymethods of Germany in the past yearhave put nearly all the small nationsof Kurope on their guard. You maycall tho roll of Roumania. Bulgaria,Greece. Switzerland, Holland. Norway,Sweden and Denmark. several ofthem traditionally pro-Germ- an andlinked to Germany by race, withoutfinding today one dependable friend.Holland is even more afraid of Ger-many than the Balkan states areafraid of Austria.' and may yet bopersuaded to join the allies.

Roumania and Bulgaria haT .rnbargaining with Russia, :f coun-e- .

The former wants a pledge that if shewins the Roumanian part of Hun-gary she may keep it. Bulgaria wantsback tho land Roumania stole fromh r in tho second Balkan war. the landFeria gained at the irie time by

and-bagi- n her. and tho nst of thoTurkish territory that she won byconquest and was cheated of. Butabove all. these nations ami theGreek nation, too desire to preservethemselves from iho menace to theirnational life which they believe wouldnMiie with success of tho Germanic al-

lies. They want to see the power ofGermany and Austria curbed ovenmore than they want ac-es.-ion-

s of ter-ritory, and they are willing to assume

responsibilities and makeheavy sacrifices to help curb it.

I is thi fact which redeems thebargainings of these neutrals frommuch of its sordidncss. It also servesrs an Illuminating commentary on theworld's judgment of Germany andAustria. A nation must have trainedk pretty bad reputation when luTiriends are driven to fiuht h r be-

cause they dare not let her win.

XO KIlAli PKOITT IS All.The Kuropean belligerents, especial-

ly the two that are interfering mostwith our commerce, are convincedthat wo are getting rich out of thewar, ami that conviction has a gooddeal to do with heir petulant treat-ment of our trade protests.

If wo are getting rich, it isn't mere-r- y

because we're"4 profiting, even unin-tentionally, from the misfortunes ofthe warring powers. Most Americaneconomists agree that we should havobeen in a, better business conditionthan we are if there bad been no war.That view is supported by the factthat every hiot of peace sends up theprices of American securities in thostock market, and eery eent thatseems to portend a prolongation ofthe struggle has a "bearish" iniluence.

Foreign trade figures sweep awayany misconception as to the sharethat war orders havo had In revivingAmerican business. According to thestatement of the federal departmentof commerce, our total exports ofmanufactured articles for the warperiod so far are b ss than for similarperiods in peaceful 3 cars. The netIncrease in our exports has been duesf lcly to tho rrrwi ketir: of our bigwheat s irrbis. The war helped tomake that m trket. to be sure, an! yetthat adantuc- - was c .ur.t traded by

".TITXKYS" AM) MORALS.No one was surprised, we feel safe

to sa at Mayor Keller's disclosureSaturday, that It was the street carcompany, rather than the public thathas been demanding the regulation ofthe "Jitney" buses. It beats all how-considerat- e

these magnates are of thepublic safety and the public morals,which they are advancing as reasonswhy the "jitney" owner should beplaced under the ban. Note this foronce ,as among the advices that theyfurnish:

It is rumored, though uncon-firmed, that one 'jitney' drivertook a young couple out Into thecountry for illegitimate purposes."Well, it is not only rumored, but

confirmed, that is scores of cases,young couples have taken the streetears to the city limits, and proceededfrom thence to illegitimate associa-tions. The court records are full ofsuch confirmations. And neither didtime need to await the arrival of the"Jitney" bus. to find automobileshauling people about from disreputa-ble design. Gar owners, sometimes ofthe "very respectable" sort, have beenknown to "tote" young girls to thovery mouth of hell, in their splcndidlycquipped limosines. et cetera. Butwe are glad to observe the street carmagnates looking at the moral sidoof the issue. We think henceforththe city will be safe.

And then that question of the pub-

lic safety. We read that Saturdaynight, a "jitney" bus struck ar. east-boun- d

Iike Shore train, wrecking the"jitney" and spraining the owner'swrist. The driver was unable to stopbecause of the wet condition of thepavement.

That is different of course, than thetracks of the street car company be-

ing soaped, as alleged, at the time ofthe killing of that man near Misha-wak- a

last week.We hope that the Lake Shore train

made a safe escape. but we note thatanother automobile owner, not of a"jitney." drove his car into a GrandTrunk train Saturday night. It was abad night for the railroads and surethey are in need of protection, but,remember dearie, they need it onlyas against the "jitneys."

PIIMOCKAGY AND UNITY.The excitement caused by the resig-

nation of Sec'y Bryan from the cabi-

net. Kreat as it has been, is a mereflury compared with the politicalstorm in Great Britain. If. instead ofone man dropping out of the cabiietwithout anter or recrimination. itwere found necessary for the presi-

dent to dismiss about half his officialfamilv and fill their places with re- -

publicans in order to irain enough pub-

lic support to carry on the govern-ment, w e should get some idea of w hatEngland has been going through.

The American people today areincomparably more harmonious thanthe British, our government has farmore faithful support for its foreignpolicies than the British governmenthas. even after its reorganization.

It is natural that there should boconsiderable discussion in both coun-tries. It is the usual thing for dem-

ocratic countries to carry on greatundertakings with fuss and fury, wast-ing vast energy in quarrel and debate.It is only an autocracy that runs wel'in time of peril, though Franco, themost turbulent of highly-civilize- d
