Editor The Ladles' Home Journal The Red Cross has done much to win the war. It can now do much to win peace—that peace that must come to those who have suffered because of the war. This is Just as vital a phase of war ' work as when the guns were | barking and our boys were be- I ing wounded. Wo do not "carry j on" and "carry through" if we think that to belong to the Red Cross is no longer necessary. It is what we do during the next year that will determine how we have won the war, and whether we were sincere in the ideals that our boys fought for and gave their lives for. If to be a mem ber of the Red Cross was a badge of honor when the war was on, it is equally a badge of Honor — I the honor of "carrying on," now I that the wa'r is over. We cannot J let down now in any work that j the war has brought for us to do. And certainly one point of vital conduct in that work is the Red Cross. That work is lo go | on, and we must go on with it, | If we want to fitly greet our boys when they come home let K be with a service flag in the window, but also a Red Cross emblem.

Dec. 6.—Pos sibility of perpetuating in the do main of commerce the hatred and bitterness engendered by the war tviil be greatly lessened if the United States refuses to be drawn iiffo any agreement or understanding that would make her a party to a boy cott to the commerce of any nations who have been arrayed against each j other, was a declaration contained in an address prepared by James A. Farrell, of New York, and read In his absence to the reconstruction congress here to-day. Foreign Trade Reviewed , Mr. Farrell's paper was devoted j to a review of the foreign trade sit i uation. "In this matter of economic warfare after the war." Mr. Farrell said, "there should be no ground for misunderstanding our positions. An unrepeant Germany, still wedded to her idols of militarism and the re- I lentless application of superior force can establish no right to demand the raising of an economic blockade which has been a most potent in strument in ending the war. "In pursuance of the policy of combining national and commercial interest, the German nation thought itself entitled to plunder its neigh bors for her own economic or com- [ tnercial needs. But when we have ex posed German ambition and de nounced German methods, it would be a curious way of preventing their revival by committing ourselves to the acceptance of German principles. Only on the theory that the menace of Prussian militarism must sur vive can there be any reason found 1 for looking to the future security of j the world in the waging of a per- ; jfetual bloodless war, inspired by the ; same enmity, suspicions and fears that but lately divided the world. Castutltics Divided "Nor can the fact be ignored that ( in a trade war, as in this clash of' military force, the balance of slaugh- i ter must be recokoned with since the 1 casualties cannot all be on the other side. "It is certain that if Germany is to be compelled, as she ought to be. to repay the wanton destruction she has wrought in Belgium, Northern France, Poland and Serbia, she must i have access to the raw materials of \ manufacture by conversion of which j into finished products she may earn j the money necessary to pay her i debts. "As a matter of fact, given the frank acceptance by Germany of the terms of peace which will be dictated by the Allies,Ahere can be no reason for separating her economic wants from those of the rest of Europe. These will be sufficiently imperative to use up all the surplus foodstuffs and raw materials that can be spared for many months to come." Must Provide Capital Referring to foreign trade gener ally, Mr. Farrell said: "There can be no revival of trade in the countries where we hope for it most, unless we are ready to provide cap ital for their development. We must enter into the industrial life of those j countries, engage in enterprises with I them and create out ,of their re-1 sources the new wealth from which j will come our pay." An industrial creed for "the four ' parlies to industry"—capital, man- ! agement. labor and the community— was outlined by John D. Rockefel ler, Jr. It included advancement, j by industry, of social as well as ma- , terial well-being of employes: op portunity by employes to earn a liv- . ing under conditions of fair wages, ; reasonable hours and proper indus- : trial environments: reward for initia- ! tlve and efficiency; machinery for I uncovering and promptly adjusting grievances: adequate representation of all the industrial parties with an- j nual joint conferences, to assure in dustrial harmony and prosperity, in I each plant, with this system extend- j ed "to include all plants in the same | industry, all industries in a commun ity, in a nation, and in the various ! nations."

M. C. A. gymnasium Ist night he'd have had a fair chance of imagining the ghosts of the famous Lost Battalion were in action. In the midst of the darkness a score or two of white clad figures went through the full form of military drill while com mands were shouted at them. The Businessmen's gymnasium class was in action and when the electric lights of the city went bad they did not stop for darkness but went right on with military drill. C. W. Miller, physical director, declares it was the first time he ever directed n class in the darkness, "but the.v out all right," he declared. ----- . * HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH FORMER KAISER AWAITS ACTION FOR WAR CRIME Says He Is Holland Citizen and Will Make No Statement For Publication Until Charges Are Brought Against Him; Corroborates Son as to Kruger Telegram • By Associated Press Amfrnngrn, Holland, Dec.

The telegram, already written, was laid before me for signature. i GERMANY GIVES UP AEROPLANES PIECE BY PIECE No Formal Surrender Because of Foe's Inability to As semble 2,000 Machines London, Dec. s.—There wilt be no formal surrender of German 'air planes, because it has been found Impracticable to assemble two thousand airplanes at one place and it is doubtful whether Germany has a sufficient number of reliable pilots for that purpose. Hence, the first surrender in history of an air fleet is being effected by piecemeal. The Germans are shedding their wings while retreating and the ad vancing allies are picking them up.

"I refused to sign It for three dayr, but Anally did so under pro* ure of the German diplomats and my politi cal advisers, who advanced many rea sons for sending the dispatch. Of course, having signed it, 1 take full responsibility." William Hohenllbllern wears a de jected appearance, according to the Telegraph's correspondent at Ameron gen, Holland, who says that he has talked with "someone who has come much In contact with the exile." This person is quoted as follows: "The former Kmperor wore an air of relief when he arrived at Amor ongen, but that soon vanished, iiven his 'cheery wife cannot now rouse him from moodiness. The former Empress is really something of a heroine and tries to make her hus band look on the bright side of things, but in vain. The distinguished fugi tive has terror In his heart." Herr Hohenzollern keeps more and more to himself and is constantly iess Inclined to go übont. The correspond ent says that his informant look him to an unfrequented place, from 'ynich an unshaded window In the castle was visible.
