THE CARNAGE OF WAR.
They tell us that 7,800,000 men were killed in the war. This army
of death docs not include the women and children who perished in
I the war zone and back of the battie ground
Marching four abreast and moving at the rate of three miles an
hour for ten hours a day, the dead would be 100 days in passing a
given point.
With hands outstretched, they would form a line three times across
this continent.
Standing in a solid mass, they would cover 75 of the blocks of
Ogden.
Passing at the rate of one a minute, day and night, they would be
nearly 1 5 years in going by.
What a distressing sacrifice to ihe god of war to the brutality of
man.
Now accompanying the army of death should be women and chil
dren, with drawn faces and an endless flow of tears. That is war in
the twentieth century of Christianity.
KEEP POLITICS OUT OF CAMPAIGN.
The editor of The Standard has been asked the direct jueston :
"Are you a party to a partisan campaign in Ogden? '
We feel somewhat chagrined, after repeated declarations in oppo
sition to the injecting of party politics into city affairs, to be called on
to answer that question.
Emphatically, the editor is opposed to party politics in this cam
paign, and he is not directly or indirectly supporting or countenanc'
mg a. partisan campaign.
We are of the opinion though that strenuous efforts are being made
to ignore the law on this point, and that at least one machine can
didate is in the field.
We hope the people will rebuke any one, whether he be Democrat
or Republican, who lends himself as a candidate of any political clique
or class, as the spirit of the law is violated by those who secretly or
publicly conspire to turn the city government over to the defeasing
power of party politics.
When you find men resorting o that which is trickery in getting
into office, you may look for deception and chicanery after they are
comfortably located in office.
I SENATOR REED EGGED.
At Ardmorc, Oklahoma, United States Senator James A. Reed was
dnven from the stage by being egged. The Missour; senator rad been
warned that he was not wanted in Mrdmore, but he insisted on inflict
ing himself on the community and received evidence of contempt.
But Ardmorc, in egging a senator of the United States, committed
an uncalled for act of disrespect. If we all were to carry our dislikes
to that extent, this country would be in civil war within twenty-four
hours.
Violence should have no place in giving ent to disapproval of the
conduct of a public man.
I An Ogdenite, who is a close friend of Senator Reed, insists that the
senator is high minded and sincere. Dunnj? the war, Senator Reed
was one of a group of senators who did all possible in an effort to
render the administration powerlesc to successfully prosecute the war.
His loyalty repeatedly was questioned and today we view him as a
man whose utterances are to be discounted, but while he remains a
senator of the United States he should be given a respectful hearing.
If he is a demagogue, his false attitude eventually will destroy him.
Everywhere, throughout the country, there should be moie self
restraint exhibited, as the tendency is to violent outbursts, as though
the nerve centers were ajangle and deep hatred were aflame.
I CONTROLLING THE PROFIT IN BUSINESS.
In the Utah senate yesterday, Culbert L. Olsen introduced a bill
intended to reduce the high cost of living.
The measure provides that any person engaged in a business which
nets 1 5 per cent profit can be deemed a profiteer.
Senator Olsen is earnestly laboring for the people, but how is his !
bill to operate without destroying business?
There is not a business man who can foretell his profits on any
one day, month or year. Not a business institution is certain of a
profit during this period of wild fluctuations in the prices of goods.
A business which makes a profit of I 5 per cent this year may lose
50 per cent when prices drop.
The whole atmosphere of business is that of uncertainty, which
compels higher prices and abnormal profits. This will go on until
there is a stabilizing of prices.
Senator Olsen's bill might serve a good purpose, if it did not pre
scribe a punishment for profiteering and simply compelled business
houses to publish, under oath, their net profits. By this publicity the
people would soon reach a decision as to whether there is profitrer
inp and tVv could be depended on to mete out the right kind of a re
buke. It there is to be regulation, prices must be controlled from the
point of production to the consumer, which is an almost impossible
task.
Certain great monopolies may be held within limiU. but to attempt
to say what retail profits must be is the starting out on a dangerous
excursion into an unknown sea without rudder or compass.
No doubt there are retailers who are making greater profits than
are fair, but where one business house is getting rich, there are one
hundred in constant dread of a crash.
If the people would stint themselves for thirty days, this entire
problem of exorbitant profits would solve itself without resorting to
the dangerous expedient of arbitrary legislation
WHAT THE CHURCHES CAN DO.
One of the mightiest forces for the holding down of riotous dem
onstrations in the United States should be the church. That the min
isters are beginning to see how much depends on them to set things
right is disclosed in a meeting whu h is now being held in New York,
called together by all churches and known as the Interchurch World
Movement Conference, the object of which is to discuss the ethical
aspects of the industrial problem.
At the opening session today, the chairman made this statement:
"Human life has pnor rights over every other value and the failure
of the Christian world to recognize this simple fundamental Christian
teaching is the cause of the present industrial chaos.
. "If the principles of Christianity are applied to the social and in-,
i
dustrial situation in America our problems will be solved. The church
must insist that the Christian ethics that have stood the test of two
thousand years and have been the standard of Christian civilization
here and abroad must be applied to corporate as well as to individual
relationships.
"It is high time the church elements of this counfry took a hand
in the industrial situation. We have been adopting resolutions, re
peating platitudes and drawing up statements of principles, the only
results being to take them from oui archives and revere them to suit
some new crisis.
"The politician, lawyer, employer, worker, farmer and economist
have had their say The church alone has been silent. This apathy
and aloofness on the part of the Christian organizations cannot 'longer
be permitted. The churches must act.
The church has a stronger hold on the consciences of men than any
other organization for good, and a great work is now before the
preachers of the gospel in keeping the boat from rocking. The
churches must exert their influence in freeing the minds of men from
extreme passions.
IN FLANDRS FIELDS
Editor Standard: Following, in my opinion, is the finest lyric
written durinpr the lale wir. or possibly, ever written.
(',,1 Dr .John McKay, of Montreal, during the second night of the
battle of Yprei becoming physically exhausted, seated hi&seli upon
a knapsack for a moment's respite, anil Avhile so resting wrote this
littk poem that deserves to live forever heeause nf its patriotic ar
dor arid the ultimata result to thos. brave fellows who were standing
with him that awful night in the ihadoip of death
Singular enough in I few days 'he body of Dr. McKay was huried
in Flanders Fields where he had fallen in battle. This lyrie should
have a place in even album of Ogden homes, it means so much
A. S.CONDON.
WE SHALL NOT SLEEP.
In Flanders Fields
(he poppies blow
Between the Crosses,
row by row,
That marl; our place:
And in ihe sky
The larks still bravely
sinking fly,
Scarce heard amidst
the guns helow.
We are the dead.
Shmt day ago we lived,
felt dawn,
saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved,
and now we lie
In Flanders Fields.
Take up out quarrel
With the foe.
To you from falling hands
we throw the Torch
he yours to hold it 'high ;
If ye break faith
with us who die,
We shall not sleep,
though poppies grow
o In Flanders Fields."
