Ketchikan. Alaska. Thursday April 24.1919
DO YOU REMEMBER ?
Do you remember i Iks hov ril you took up
more than your share ot me m Lmerty Loan.’
Do you remember how pleased you were after
you had purchased; because you had helped your
country and suffering humanity?. At the time
you experienced a feeling that comes only when
you help a good cause. If you remember all this,
add to it the fact that while you did remarkably
well thus far for the cause, y u have only reach
ed a mile post of the route that the country must
travel in order to finish the job undertaken by
your former purchases. You have loyally and
generously supported the government in time of
war. and while the real fighlirmg seems to be
over.—we hope— the cost of our boys victory
has not been fully met. and it must be met pro
vided we want to finish the- y-b. The boys did
their part by bringing the Hun down on their
knees. Now it is up to us to do ours and purchase
Victory Notes.
From the time our country entered the war
to this day. every demand have been met with
good measures by the citizens ot Ketchikan and
vicinity. As a matter of record- we have led
while the rest followed. In view of these facts,
let it not be s: . . that we have fallen by the
wayside at this road 1
complete victory.. Let us >uy to •'•ur utmost.
A MISTAKEN NOTION
Some of the labor union m u of this vicinity
rather resent the notion tlv: t - terns to have got
around to the effect that the ve v: accord with
the much talked of Bolsh viki math and
ments. In this respect, we ma ' say that every
body knows that union ' fav • ny movement
that tend; t t rid of aut : oppression
But this fact alone 1 u s .'em to favor
revolutions against any an ail .- of govern
ments like the Bolshev.u whior u merely ano
ther name for tr*T YV ord V :e ot trouble
makers. There maybe some among th
would well me a j keup in the hope of
bettering themselves; but these are in the mi
nority in any union. There are also a few who
are jealous; unconsciously perhaps, but jealous;
nevertheless of those who are doing better than
themselves. These brood over thier imaginery
hard lot and soon become sour. But taken as a
whole- union men are just as rational and anx-1
jous for a stable government as are non-union 1
men. They resent, and rightly so,the idea that
rhey are carried away by the mere mention of a
new movement. Unions are alright provided
they don’t allow agitators to dictate.
WHO WON THE WAR?
All prideful American citizens who think
America won the war for the allies will find con-,
'rmation for their pleasing hypothesis in a state 1
ment given out by Admiral Sims on his return to ,
New York from Great Britain. He said:
“When we arrived in April. 1917, the central
powers were winning the war, whether you know;
it or not. There were from seven to eight hun
dred thousand tons of shipping being lost each
month, and w^id not know how to stop it. We j
had to adopta new method. We did this. We es
tablished firs tthe convoy system; second the
depth charges; third, the listening device. The
convoy system might have been put into opera
tion sooner than it was, but it had undergone a
period of incorrect information.'’
The admiral was not thus merely imparting
v r exclusive American consumption a palatable
morsal-to feed the national vanity, for he more
than once made the same statement in public in
London. The British were silent- possibly from
mere politeness, or possibly they had their own
notions about it. and with characteristic reti
cence permitted the Americans to think what
they pleased. But the admiral was also at pains
to minimize, for the British benefit, the extent
of the American participation in the war.
‘■Lo you know,” he said on his authority as the
responsible head of the American naval operat
ion- in Europe, “that America has contributed •
but three per cent of the effective allied fighting
fleet in the war?”
The British were silent also under the implied
compliment to their prowess on the seas. They
d had years of tremendous effort, before Amer
ic-rt came in. and- while they had not won the war.
hey had not lost it- thou the admiral told them
that they were losing it.
If Admiral Sims were asked to give his candid '
-'udgment as to who won the war he would pro
b bly say that all the allies together won it; and
it would be true. For without the British navy, !
or the French army, or the American interven
tion. the central powers would surely have won.
