Mulhall's Story.

The story put out by the lobbyist
Mulhall is of familiar type. Just how
significant are It's revelations can be
determined only after they have been
subjected to adequate scrutiny. Some
of them appear to be absurd or incredi-
BILE on their face; others have n prima-
faeie liability. and some are sup
sftesi by documentary evidence. 1 he
one thing that is most salient IN the
case ut first sight is the folly of the
head men of the National Association
of Manufacturers in carrying on such
opera tons as, even upon the most faN-
cradle view of the case, Mulhall was

ad absurdum of militarism could be
carried much further than the prop
osition under discussion in France to
enlist women in the army because
there are not men enough, We do not
say that there is any likelihood of its
being adopted. But The mere fact that
it is being advocated by few, includ-
ing one ardent feminist, who asserts
that the Government is considering
her scheme, indicates the pass To
which mlitarism has brought its ex-
ponents.
France, where the idea is advanced
because there are not enough men,
has had no great war for AZ years,
Germany, her putatiVe enemy, has en-
loyed peace for the same length of
time. one would suppose from the
alleged pancity of men that these
countries had wasted their male pop
ulation as the first Napoleon did in
Spain and Russia. But as a reality
the majority of Europe has enjoyed
peace since 1873 and yet we hear
that after these decades of peace and
while peace continues, there are not
men enough for the armies.
The singularity of the reason is
only measured by the futility of the
remedy. If one nation tries to re-
inforce its arms bearing population
by calling in women tn bring its
forces up to parity with another, the
other can do the same thing. 1t is 10
be noted that Nine. Jane Dieulafoi,
who is its prepayment, plans only to
use women in the administrative and
commissary departments, thus releas-
ing men to go to the front. But she
might as Well go the whole length and
propose to put women on the firing
line. 1t would only slightly emphasize
the anomaly of alleging that the male
arms bearing population has been ex-
hausted in nearly half a century of
peace.
