Upon the part of the Central Em
pires this has been a war of greed an 1
lust for gain and conquest* and tho '
•no the few attributes we cannot un
derstand in any human character. We
ran understand every crime in the ca
endar but the crime of greed* ever
lust of the flesh but the lust for gai»
every sin that ever damned a soul bu
the sin selfishness* and hv the sacred
bugs and beasts of Egypt we d rather

but for soup* not for robes of righte

t* mp’ate the royal rascals beside
whose hoarded wealth the riches o.
Lydia’s ancient Kings were but a
beggar’s patrimony* we long for the
mystic pAver to coin sentences that
swear like sulphur flames from hot
test hell, and weave of words a whin
of scorpins to lash such sordid sin
ners naked through the%world.
It is figured that more unmarried

CARS SELL AT A HIGH
I IGI RE TO ENGLISHMEN
LONDON- July 11— American a *
my motor tran.**port in England has
not cost the United States government
anything for machines* according to
figures prepared at army headquart
ers here. Astonishing prices have been
paid here for machines the army has
placed on auction* touring cars in
scores of instances bringing more than
the orginal cost even though the\
have seen rather hard usuage fo**
months.
The army purchased a number of
cars of a 'ight popular type for $450
each and these have sold for as high
as $14100 after being used eight mon
ths. Another machine the average pur
chasing price for which was $l,08;> has
brought as much as $1,800 at the au
ction sales. Tho prices bid for touring
cars has been absolutely amazing* Ma
jor .1. (\ Weller* head of the motor
transport work in the Quartermaster
Department here, told The Associated
Press* a great deal higher tl\an wo
would have dared asked on straight
sales. ,
Altogether the army had 502 ton
ing ears* trucks, ambulances* motor
cycles and bieyjes for its work of
transportation of about 1*000*000 men
through England . Only a dozen, or
these have been reserved to be used in
the first clearing out of headquarters
in London. Good prices have been ob
tained for the trucks and ambulances,
exceptionally good prices when com
pared with what secondhand motors
bring in the I’nited States* but tlv
greatest demand has been for the ton -
ing cars- motorcycles and bicvles?
