'America For Americans"
WHKRE 1N FOUMATK>\ LEAKS
The American people are naturall
<o (rank and open hearted that It
• . s been very difficult for us to
r 'j!ize the danger from sties.
Formerly any one could visit any
of our forts or arsenals. Tile tier*
mans have, no doubt, complete
plans of all our defenses and of all
uar material plants.
As regards the leaking of infor
mation about war plans, movement
<>: troops, etc.. there are abundant
channels of information. One of
the utost important i3 at Washing
ton. Diplomats have always railed
tliar city tne most loose tongned
capital in the world. Well guarded
state secrets have always had a way
«•[ leaking out with a speed that
• shed the heads o'' department^
According to tradition, many of
the spies who get the secret stuff
are women. They are pictured as be*
ii.^r of a fast, adventuress type,
who fascinate men in a position tO
Know things, and drag Information
from the secret recesses of their
tuiuds.
Probably very little leaks out Jit
that way. A good deal is said to
come from innocent young women
who hear their husbands and
lathers tell important things and
repeat them unthinkingly to peo
ple who are listening for a purpose.
Some information is said to leak
out at dinners where public men
gather. All is sedate until cham
pagne flows. T hen some of our wisfl
men begin to let out their most Be
iret thoughts to plausible people
» hom they have just met.
That kind of thing is not con
fined to Washington. We have
many thousands of men who know
t:ip things the spies want to find
They should be careful about
ingratiating strangers. Also they
suould look out with whom they go
out to dinner and what refresh
ments are served. • It is quite a.
safe proposition for them to go to
l'»'d at 9 p. m.—Rx.
liriDJNU A SHIP IX -7 PAYS
A great deal of comment has a
risen with the announcement that
a 5,500 ton ship, was built in 27
days at the New York Shipbuilding
plant at Camden. The comment is
deserved. Such feats, which are be
ing closely approximated in the
sripyards of the Northwest, will
tend to awaken the German De»ple
to the actital work being don9 in
the United States towards winning
the war. We know Germany has
found occasion already to change her
views oa the American army and we
suspect she may change her ideas
of American industrial efficiency,
too. The Tuckahoe is the name of
the ship that was turned out In 27
working days and in 15 days from
her launching she is due to set sai.l
The name shouid live.

PORTLAND WOMAN" FLAYS
SISTERS IT. S. AS LOAIV.KS
Chicago.—Germany, balked In its
effort to conquer the manhood of
France, is attempting' to subjugate
the women of the republic through
motherhood, while the women of the
United States, unheeding the ?all of
their French sisters, are "loafers
going about in high-heeled shoes,
wanting to be entertained by the
story of the war," Dr. Esther
Lovejoy declared in an address here
Monday. Doctor Lovejoy, form
er health commissioner of Portlan-d,
Ore., wag speaking before the Medi
cal Women's National asosciation,
meeting here simultaneously with
the American Medical association.
Speaking of the "Esthers of
France," Doctor Lovejoy who re
cently returned from a six months'
sojourn in the war zone, declared
that 350,000 girls over 16 and
boy a over 14 had been detained by
the Germans in the captured French
provinces.
FiKl>t, Work or ureni
"Three rules govern the Germans
in the retention, of the French
civil populations," the speaker said,
"Those retained must be of value
for fighting, labor or breeding.
"It is up to th© women of A
merii-a to stop this Hun invasion.
W0 w ill have no loafers among men
or women either. While the wom
en of France and England are stag
gering along under the awful load
imposed by the war, the women of
America are loafers, going about in
high heeled shoes, wanting to be
entertained bv the story of the con
flict.
'If the women of Germany had
laid down their arm® and ceased
doing the work of men the war
would have been over long since.
"If the women of America would
wear winter clothing in winter and
not sit aDout in clothing fit only
for hot dog days while they burn
tons of coal to keep them warm —
wasting coal to preserve the dictates
of fashiou—heat less Mondays would
be unnecessary. .
\ *
(.fiance for Tennis Mayers.
"The oig thing in the United
States is for the women to replace
the men in civil occupatons in or
der that our full man power may be
sent to the aid of the allies. There
is a crying need in the south, for
instance, for harvest hands. That is
a spiendid opportunity for women
golfers and tennis players.
"We have only to be as good as
our grandmothers, who made this
great l;ind for us to loaf in."
X C. COMPANY QUITS BUSINESS
Valdez, June 15. — Parties ar
r'vin* from, the iaterior this week
report that the Northern Commer*
cia' Company, 60 Jong a factor in

Jake Nafsted and John S. Nelson,
the latter employed with Blum-O'
Neill Company at Chitlna. The

mail between the two points and
the Northern Commercial Company
has pulled its outffit off the run.
Jameg Wilson, head of American
labor delegation to England, speak
ing at Whitehall Palace ,told Brit
ish workers American labor will
not consent to peace conference un
til Prussian militarism has with
drawn within its own boundaries, and
then not UJitil German people have
given proof of reoognition of right
of cvilized people to determine
their own standards for themselves.
He said "The principle of de
mocracy or the principle of Prussian
military autocracy will prevail as a
result of the wort*! war. There can
be no middle course,, nor compro
mise. The contest must be carried
on to Us finality.t
