Germany'S Big Naval Guns.

Germanys response TO naval construction in Great
Britain, Japan aud the United States is now dev
cred. Great Britain has been building ships with
ten 1312-inch guns. Japan has one of eight 14inch
guns Our own New York and Texas have each
ten 14-inch guns. Hitherto 12-inch guns have been
Germanys largest. But now she is at work on two
ships each of which will carry eight 15-inch guns
mounted in four turrets placed on the centre line
an undertaking which has spurred the British Ad-
mralty TO plan a ship with similar armament.
The interesting feature Of the case is that Ger
many has not, as other nations have, gradually
worked her way up to this enormous calbre, but has

THE IMMINENT WAR CLOUDS
What Is Being Done in View Of
Them?

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: Notwithstanding the jiugo senu-
ment OF many Of our daily sheets Of re-
cent date, let US consider Tor a moment
the real seriousness Of the war clouds that
are to-day lowering over our great land
threatening az any moment to burst ano
deluge us with the hellishness OF MOD
ern war.
Two very interesting articles appeared
IN our papers of July %, one In The TITO
une. a letter under the heading rs Amer

esting little history OF the American rag
in THE Evening Mail.
II we are as defeuceless as the former
article sets forth we then have but htus
chance 10 add future glodes 70 our 81
ready glorious flag. As mentioned IN th7
latter. the flag has passed through ave
cruel wars, and has never known ue

If Not Mediation in Mexico, What
Then?

The American Ambassador TO Mexico, who re-
turned TO this country yesterday, is said 10 be op-
posed TO an attempt at mediation between the war
ring Mexican factions. On what ground his oOJec-
ton is based does not appear Possibly 1t Is because
he thinks it would be a reflection upon Huefta anu
upon his own peculiar relations with him. but
there is one obvious ground on which such ooJec-
ton might be made by others That is that our
government despite the hairtrigger zeal OF its au-
bassador does not recognize either of the factions
as a sovereign power or a lawful belligerent ana
that il could not therefore consistently negotiate
with them.
At the same time it is pertinent to ask what is to
he done if mediation is not offered. We are not
willing TO subscribe to q counsel of impotence ana
saw that nothing can be done but that the factions
must be permitted to 90 on with depreciation ana de-
structon until anarchy leads to utter chaos Neither
can we believe that the only practicable resort is to
Intervention and war of conquest
The technical obstacle to mediation which we have
mentioned might be obviated through the making OF
Joint representations by this country and the chel
South American powers. such as we have hitherto
suggested If one of those powers has recognized
tho Huerta government it could act as the spokes-
man OF the others in making clear why they had re-
fused recognition and what they regarded as sine
quG non to granting it.
Even il none of those powers had recosnlzed
TIuerta it would surely be practicable for them
unitedly to make effective representations to both
IIucrta and the insurgents They would not recog-
MIC the former the constitutional President or
the latter as belligerents but would simply give
both sides equal de fGcto recognition as contendng
factions whose differences must be composed for
the restoration of constitutional government
Although the Ambassador to Mexico is quoted
aS caln: proposals for joint mediation "al rot,
thoughtful men will generally prefer such course
"a snapshot recognition Of the benehciar-if not
tho actual perpetrator-of a hideous murder.

THE DEAD AT BINGHAMToN
For Them the Legislature of the
State Is Responsible.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir. Many of them burned beyond rec
ognition. the bodies OF more than hfty
women have been taken from the ruins
Of the Freeman clothing factory In Bling
hamton. other victims OF this disas-
tor lie I'm hospital beds, from which they
will be carried to their graves.
The Legislature of the great state Of
Sew York meets this emergency by TAX
ing n recess of nearly three weeks. The
Labor Department of the state, demoral-
ized for months is still hcadless. While
laws have been passed providing for sd-
ditional factory inspectors. thanks TO the
state Senate. men nominated FOR Com
missioner Of Labor have not been con-
hrmed, and there IL no one with author
ity TO make these appointments.
From Albany we learn that there are
about sixty OF these jobs created by the
amended labor law sixty lives have
been snuffed out in Binghamton. There
are sixty jobs to be handed out in Al
bany.
The price already paid seems too high.
All the Jobs in the Department Of Labor
are not worth the life of the most in
significant victim of the Binghamton
disaster.
In ten minutes. perhaps less. the state
Senate could. if II received the word.
begin the work OF reorganling the De-
partment OF Labor. Must other lives
be sacrificed before the word is given?
Must the million and a half men and
women employed in factories in the
state be denied the protection which the
law aims To provide until such time az
the question as 10 who shall get the
jobs is settled?
II this is the situation perhaps we
must await the expiration OF Governor
Sulzer's term Of office. Eighteen months
Is a long time to wait. There are many
houses of mourning in Binghamton.
There may be many others in the next
eighteen months Meanwhile the UNDER
taker Is busy, half a dozen "investiga
tions' arc under way and the Senate has
taken recess until August H. Why
should they worry?
