War Department

Publicity Drive
ProMem of Military Prrparfd
ncs to B Placed Rr fore
PuMic ly Army and
Navy.
By HARRY L. ROGERS.
Washington. P. I'., July 29. With
the zero hour already et, the Amer
ican army n preparing to go over the
top.
There ha heeit on declaration of
war by conro. but the Harding
administration hat approved the
campaign the War department has
embarked upon, and Secretary
i Weeks is determined to "carry on"
" till the enemy hoiiti the white flag
of defeat.
Casualties there may be in this
newc.n war, but fatalities are un
likely., for the attackers will emnlov
not rifles nor machine guns, but pub
blicity; not shrapnel or high ex
plosives, but facts.
The opening guns already have
been fired. Analysis of recent ad
dresses by Secretary Weeks, As
sistant Secretary Wainwright. Gen
eral Fershing and other administra
tion officials closely identified with
the military branches of the govern
ment, leave no doubt as to their con
viction that grave dangers menace
our institutions. Their utterances
indicate unmistakably they have seen
the necessity of placing the problem
of military preparedness frankly be
fore the people in a new and more
comprehensive light than ever before
has been attempted in time of peace.
Unrest Threatens Government.
In the unrest following the war
Secretary Weeks and General Persh
ing ,see what they believe to be a
danger not to the army alone, but to
American governmental institutions
generally, and Secretary VVainwright
in his most recent public utterances
is even more outspoken.
"In some ways these times are as
critical for the future of our re
public as those of 1917 and 1918," he
declared, speaking for the administra
tion. "We have our enemies, al
though they do not wear a dis
tinctive uniform. They attack from
within instead of without."
Innumerable "isms" have sprung
up throughout the country since the
great war, Wainwright believes,
which have as an objective the de
struction of Americanism, "to which
we owe all that we possess as a
nation."
"Groups of peoples and classes are
organizing for every kind of purpose
except a patriotic and national one,"
he continued. "Insidious propaganda
is being directed against all the
fundamentals of our government. The
most pernicious of all are those who
are striving to substitute interna
tionalism for nationalism. They
would destroy from within what no i
enemy has ever been able to do irom
without our ideals of government, i

demanded any such reduction as was
ornercd.
The average voter, Weeks holds
and even the average member of
congress, cannot understand the
highly technical questions involved
in the peace-time organization of an
army without snccial attention to the
subject. The only men who do know,
tor instance, what happened in
France from a technical Doint of view
and why American losses were heavy
in one action and comparatively light
in another are the army officers who
have made these matters their life
study. It was for this reason that
Mr. Weeks directed the ban on pub
lie discussion of technical military
questions by army officers be raised
and that the trained military men be
encouraged to explain to the public
what the army and the War depart
ment is all about.
The secretary now is carrying his
program a step further and himself
undertaking this public explanation
with the aid of the highest officers
of the army, and looks upon this
work as in no sense a militaristic
propaganda, but a simple question
of popular education in the A B C's
of national defense.

New Machine Will Charge
Battery in 8 to 10 Hours
To comoletelv and properly charge
an automobile battery .in eight to 10
hours would have been considered
an impractical and practically im
possible procedure six months ago.

Pacifists Declared Dangerous..
"Th pacifists, who were silent
during the war and missing from the
ranks of our defenders, would de
stroy our instruments of defense
the army and navy and render us
a weakling among the nations with
out influence or prestige in the
world's affairs. These internation
alists and pacifists, working together
and in most instances the same peo
ple are even trying to induce our
youths to foreswear allegiance to our
flag and refuse to defend it."
These views are in effect those of
accomplish this.
The machine will charge a battery
in from eight to 10 hours without
injury to the battery. Tourists no
longer will be compelled to lay over
in a town for four days on account
of a dead battery, and the people of
Omaha can have one-day battery
charging service without fear of in
jury to their battery when the pro
duction of the factories ot the manu
facturers of this machine becomes
large enough to allow them to ship
to Omaha battery companies.
During the last few weeks word
has been received at the Boys' divi
sion ot many who are away for the
summer. Letters coming this week
were from:

they will go to school this winter.

Micklewright Having
Pleasant Vacation
"Y" Boys Everyone
Should Know About
Paul Carter has been a member
of the "Y" just about one year and
has made a place for himself in the
many activities in the boys' division.
In gym work he has made a great
development, and in all sports in
their season. In the spring Hcx-
athlon meet, Taul made the highest
record in class C for his age. In
his school athletics at Miller Park
school he has been very active.
At camp this summer Paul was a
member of the famous Sioux cot
tage. He was an honor boy and
won other camp honors aside from
the honor pin. ,
Paul is always willing to help
about the Boys' division wherever he
can be of service. During the sum
mer his favorite sport has become
swimming and diving. During the
last season Paul was regular in his
attendance at classes and Bible
study.

Secretary Weeks, General Pershing' v.uPj
and in fact all those connected with
the national defense branch of the
administration. Feeling thus, these
high officials have embarked upon a
campaign of education in American
ism that is, an explanation of Ameri
can forms of government, the dangers
which menace them and the relation
of the army and navy to American
institutions.
They believe the public does not
realize the two military services
have a distinct place in American po
litical economy and are attempting a
new type of national preparedness
campaign designed to educate the
public to such a realization.
Says Publicity Is Necessary.
The process of arousing public at
tention to these purely public ques
tions is of necessity, Mr. Weeks be
lieves, a long one, and the year that
will elapse before the size of the
army again becomes a current po
litical issue will no more than suffice
to lay the groundwork of understand
ing. Weeks and his assistants make no
secret of their feelings that drastic
cuts in the army establishment by
congress this year have seriously
menaced the success of the military
policy enacted by congress in 1920.
They do not believe public sentiment

M?tor Cars
It is difficult for the Cadillac
owner to convey even a tithe
of the gratification he finds
in his car. His enjoyment is
derived from so many ad
mirable features.
It springs not merely from
his car's beauty, nor from
its comfort nor its lightness
of movement, grateful and
wonderful as these charac
teristics are to him.
It proceeds from something
even more than the de
pendability, the power, the
swift acceleration or the
basic economy of hit
Cadillac.
Rather, his satisfaction is a
blend and a combination of
all of these attributes, result
ing in a pleasure and a con
tentment in his purchase
too deep and lasting for
comparison.
And added to it, and perfect
ing it, is the consciousness
that he possesses the automo
bile that the world accepts as -the
standard of excellence.
