AEROPLANES AND WAR.

From the New York Herald
With characteristic frankness and
terseness Admiral Togo puts himself
squarely on record as to the war val
lie OF aeroplanes. He comedies their
importance In some instances during
naval operations, mainly as scouts.
but he does not believe, and here the
body of naval opinion is with him, that
any air machine or airship as yet de-
vised can destroy or be even menace
to battleships. This is of particular in
terest at a moment when our Atlantic
fleet is to carry out some preliminary
tests in this direction and when the
public mind is wandering SO far afield.
The admiral does not state his reasons
for these opinions. 1t is evident, how
ever, that they are based on the dan
gers of counter attack which aero
planes must face from alert foes; on
the impossibility of surprise attacks,
owing to the clatter and clamor of
their fight: on the uncertainty of aim
due to the height they must seek to
escape immediate destruction, and,
finally, on the proved localization of
damage which follows the defamation
of high explosives.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
TRAINING FOR CITIZENSHIP.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun
The development OF the depart
ments of American history and politi-
cal science by a number of universe
ties and colleges, of which encourag-
ing signs have been given recently, is
a movement of more than passing i'm
portance. Before the rise of political
science in the modern sense it was
considered SUFFICIENT to have a CLASH
cal or technical education as founda-
ton for the duties of life, without any
particular equipment. for the RESPONSE
bility of citizenship. When the general
body OF the people participated less,
or not at all in the practical work of
government than is the case today. the
need for this specialized training was
not greatly felt 1t undoubtedly retard-
ed the evolution of states, but broad
knowledge of the functions of govern
ment was not pressing necessity for
the average man. In those days of
widely bestowed suffrage, a free press
and signs Of the accelerated develop
ment of political institutions, there
must be broader base on which to
build the structure of citizenship. A
knowledge of the principles of politi-
cal science is not within the reach of
all: but those who possess it, if they
are true to their opportunities, can
form leaven in every community in
which they happen to be thrown.

MACHINES FOR THE CROPS.

The back to the land" cry labors
under the disadvantage that the world
never had SO much to eat as when the
complaint of deficiency of labor is
loudest. The United States alone is al
most in sight of harvests valued at
ten billions of dollars, a fact which
will prove once more that this is in
truth country where values as we'll
as costs are reckoned in billions. The
explanation of the demand for more la
Dor at a time when existing labor sup
ply is unprecedentedly productive is
simple. There is no demand for an in
crease of all the year agricultural Ia
Dor. The demand is for supply
merely of harvest hands, to work for
a few weeks and then return to other
occupations. The intensity of the de-
mand is due to the fact that machin-
cry enables farmers to plant and cult
vate almost incredible quantities of
produce, but housing and marketing

TILDEN WITHHOLDS

Packer Objects to Revealing Books
to Helm Committee-Hines
Again Under Fire.

Springfield, IH-Edward Tilden,
president Of the National Packing
company and of the Drovers De
posit National bank, threw his
gauntlet in the face of the Helm COM
mittee. He strenuously objected to
the production of his personal bank
ing accounts without the consent of
his customers, on the ground that it
would be unfair to make public doc
ument of his private affairs. The COM
mittee promptly accepted the chal-
lenge, and at once served him with
a subpoena duces tecum and gave him
until next Thursday to weigh the mat
ter.
He was dismissed from the stand
without being questioned as to the
testimony Of Clarence s. Funk, man
ager Of the International Harvester
company. Last week Funk stated that
when Edward Hines approached him
with a request to contribute $4,000
to the 100000 Lorimer corruption
fund, he said: Send the money to
Ed. Tilden."
During his testimony Mr.. Tilden de-
clared there was nothing in his bank
ing accounts concerning the matter
under Investigation
Herman H. Hettler of Chicago, pres
ident of the Herman H. Hettler Lum-
Der company, told the committee that
Edward Hines declared to him he had
elected Lorimer.
Mr.. Hettler said that he had known
Edward Hines for 20 years He said
he met Mr.. Hines at the Union League
club in Chicago May 20, 1909.
M. B. Coan, investigator for the COM
mittee, followed Mr. Hettler with a
story of a conversation of Mr. Hines
with several citizens Of Marquette,
Mich, in which the Chicago lumber
man Is said to have boosted how he
rose from poor boy to q millionaire
and crowned his career by electing
William Lorfmer senator
Mr.. Coan declared that the Mar
quette men who had given him the
story had refused to come to Illinois
as witnesses because of their friend
ship for Mr.. Hines. AS a substitute
for their testimony Mr. Healy read
affidavits from Frank Russell, Robert
G. Lowe and l. D. Mosher The Hines
conversation was supposed to have
been at either Bush's saloon or at a
hotel bar. Russell, Shelby B. Jones
and Russ Culver are said in the aft
davits to have been with Mr. Hines
