and although Great Britain has
often said that it was a purely
temporary affair which covered
only the particular situation OF
the time, and though other for
eign nations have protested
against it and France once de-
fined it, the doctrine has been
maintained in it's integrity up to
this time. It is unfortunate
that the southern republics for
whom we have risked so much
have shown little appreciation
of our effort on their behalf.
There is not a republic south of
US worthy the name. Dictators
or oligarchs rule the nations in
the interest of private greed,
and we have not only received

tries but are generally disliked

ger, suffering and death. The
growth of peace and civilization
with their relief from hardships
and the frequent necessity of
defence of self and rights, have
made them more than ever 10th
to risk their lives in war or bat
tie. But most of all, in the last
third of a century the prodig-
ious improvements in firearms,
their scientific, deadly effective
ness, stun and alright the ina
gination and hold men afar off
from danger and the enemy. It
has been estimated that since
1870, the general effectiveness of
the infantry rifle has been in
creased from 1 to about 13, and
of artillery from to about 40.
These figures affect the nerves.
Again, when men fought in
masses under the eye Of the
higher leaders, discipline to the
CRISIS of battle; but under the
enforced indivldualism Of exten-
ded order fighting, the leader is
often far away, or there is no
leader and the soldier then must
become a leader for himself and
perhaps for others near him. To
win, then, we must make him
feel himself something more
than discipline and tactician
training, something that will
hold him to the fight, something
that will send him on, something
of those high qualities, honor,
puts pride, ambition, heroism,
patriotism.
Of the horrors and carnage,
the suffering and long exposure
of the wounded to be expected
in future battle with improved
arms, our soldiers soon hear
enough and enough that is logi-
cal and probable, to unsettle a
good mans nerve and make his
Reinsurance a matter of impor-
tance. Undoubtedly soldiers
should know the dangers of bat
tie, but not the dangers alone.
All facts, all circumstances that
favor his chance for life in bat
tie should be repeated and en-
phasized until deeply impressed
upon his mind. They will add
to the confidence, bravery and
daring with which he will press
the fight. Show him:

Flag language.

The black flag is a sign of pi-
racy.
TO :strike the flag" is to lower
the colors in submission.
Dipping the flag is lowering
it slightly and hosting it again
to salute vessel or fort.
The yellow flag shows a vessel
to be in quarantine or is sign
OF a contagious disease.
A flag Of truce" is a white
flag displayed to an enemy to in
dicate desire for parley or con-
sultation.
The red flag in our service is
a mark Of danger and shows a
vessel to be receiving or dis
charging her powder.
A flag at half mast means
mourning. Fishing and other
vessels return with the flag at
half mast to announce the loss
or death OF some of their crew:
Flags are used as the smybol
of rank and command, the Off
GERS using them being called
ssfag officers" Such flags are
square to distinguish them from
other banners.
The white flag is sign Of
peace. After a battle parties
from both sides often go out to
the field to rescue the wounded
or bury the dead under the pro-
lection of the white flag.

States goes abroad, the Ameri-

Light on Venezuelan Situation.
ARBITRATION GUARANTEES.


The suggestion that the Unit
ed States shall guarantee that
! Venezuela will abide by the
award in case the current dis
putes are submitted to arbitra-
ton is reported not to be we'll
received at Washington. That
is not in the least surprising.
On the contrary, it would be sur
prising if the suggestion were
entertained and accepted. For
thus there would be created a
new precedent in international
litigation, one fraught with
grave possibilities of embarrass-
ment and one on the whole not
calculated to promote the cause
of international arbitration. It
is, Of course, permissible for
Great Britain and Germany to
decline arbitration with Venezue-
la, despite the intimation that
their acceptance of it would be
gratifying to the United States.
Or they may discriminate among
their various claims, holding
that some are and some are not
arbitrable. But for them to ask
that the United States shall
guarantee fulillment of the ar
I bitral decree seems to be a pro-
cedure in. excess of all former
practice among sovereign states,
and one not to be commended to
favor.
It is a fundamental principle
of international arbitration, as
indeed of other international
relations and actions; that the
obligation of the award rests up
on good faith. There is no le-
gal sanction nor coercion behind.
it, as there may be in the case of
arbitration between Individual
citizens of the same state. The
good faith of the parties concern
ed and the constraining force Of
world wide public opinion afford
the only guarantees of fultilment
of the award. Nor are these to
lightly dismissed as inadequate.
They have hitherto invariably
proved adequate. There is no
record of the Reputation of an
arbitral verdict between nations.
The only approach to it is in the
case of our northeast boundary
dispute in 1S27>42. It is true
that the United States declined
to accept the findings of the ar
bitrator, but that was because
the king of the Netherlands in
his decree exceeded the terms of
the reference. In tie rn at i onal |
lawyers recognized that his
award was properly voided, as
such one would have been in a
private suit. Even that, then,
was not a Reputation of award.
The award by it's own terms an
nulled itself. In all the rest of
the record there is not even
so mnch of an approximation to
failure of arbitration. There
have been dozens of arbltrations
since the treaty of Ghent. Some
of them have involved states OF
less responsibility and trust
| vorthiness than Venezuela. In

involuntary with both man and

method of self-preservation. In
battle the requirements of self

the facing and destruction of

is lost. On one hand, then, is
the instinct Of flight; on the
other the necessity of fight. TO
eradicate this instinct of fight
and put in it's place something
that will make men fight, that
will save destruction and accom-

Facts and Thoughts About Tobacco.
Written for the Christian Temperance
Worker by member.

Worker by member.
One fact is a vastarea Of Gods
earth is cultivated in tobacco
that might be used for other
valuable products.
But for what good is all this
tobacco farming? It is for the
needless self-indulgence," spok
en- of in the rules of the Metho-
dist church.
Is the stuff raised to make
stoves of many Of our men,
women and children? It is a
sad fact that many women and
children use the weed in many
ways. The habit, already be-
gun by children, gives trouble
to those trying to teach these
little ones. Shall we remain
silent? It does seem that the
time has come that we should
see and speak and act, if we can
see the right thing to do.
Last year, in and around the
church in which an assembly OF
ministers met a l-bred lady
complained of the filth to be
passed over in getting into the
Lords Home!
The church is desecrated IN
many places similar to the above
even worse-for the floor in
side is covered till the filth is
too much for decent folks to sit
near.
To one who has been some,
thing of a missionary near a
large cotton mill district, for
several years just past, the evils
of tobacco are most appalling.
The beautiful young girls have
their mouths filed with snuff
from morning till night, till the
lower lip bulges to a deformlty
sad to behold.
What can church members,
called Christians, think Of while
planting, aiding and abetting the
raising of the poverty-begetting
stuff. Not to say the health

seems to me it is.

tins:
That, Notwithstanding the guns
of ship, sea coast, siege, and field
belch tons of iron, thousands of
missiles so far, so wide, so
searchingly that nothing, it
would seem, could live under
their fire, yet men do not die in
front of them as they did in front
of the old smooth bores. More,
far more, are left to tell, and do
not fail to tell and exaggerate,
the tale of horrors. Witness the
more recent siege and sea coast
Commandments.
That Notwithstanding long
zones are "sWept, beaten" and
"ploughed" by fire, yet men live
there. Think Of the enemy. He
too, is suffering. If we stick
strictly to business, giving him
and not ourselves our whole at
tention, he will have his woes.
At the crisis the men who re-
member this, who can think of
this and make yet one more dash,
will save honor, the battle and
themselves.
That, though trees are shot
through, walls are battered and
houses knocked down, yet this
does not mean death to all that
are behind or in them.
Thousands of bullets are shot,
but it takes ten thousand to kill
one man and the number is ever
on the increase.
Many are hit, perhaps, yet few
are instantly killed. To fall does
not mean death. Improved field
hospitals, elaborate and COM
plete arrangements for the care
of the wounded, wonderful med
icines and skilled nurses are pro
vided and are greatly reducing
their sufferings, and skilled mod
ern surgery is ever reducing the
percentage of those who die of
wounds.
Though in the crisis it seems
terrible to stand, and more terri
bic to go forward, yet that Of
which we instinctively think, to
go back, is most terrible of all.
It is sure destruction.
The bullets mostexplosive and
fatal effect is at ranges less than
400 yards. To this range, how
ever, it is now rarely necessary
to 60, or to go only under cover.
Before this the battle will have
been lost or won, at ranges OF
from 1000 yards to 1000 yards,
where wounds are far less
deadly.
These are reassuring and en-
couraging thoughts, and cannot
fail to help steady the human
nerve and send the soldier fur
ther in the fght.-Major R. b:

States Infantry, in The Journal
