The piece argues the proposed Military Force Test shows strong political significance backing Governor Bryan. It cautions that full mobilization could alarm allies and harm peacetime industry, urging focus on restoring normal conditions in Europe and applying sound business principles beyond party politics. It stresses character as vital to national power and calls for responsible leadership over partisan excitement.

More Character and Road Improvement Benefits for Farmers
The Bureau of Public Roads notes stark price differences in milk transport on unimproved versus improved roads. A milk truck loses money on 5 miles of bad road, paying 3.5 cents per gallon for six months and 3 cents otherwise, costing farmers $900 per half year for 1,000 gallons. Improvements could justify $3,600 per mile if no other traffic benefited.
