The Hnne Of p.an.

While public interest hangs upon every bull
letin from the front bearing upon the impend-
ing great battle" the object toward which
anxiety must be directed Ia the first vital open
ing for the wedge Of mediation OF arbitration.
For it is unthinkabe that war involving all
OF Europe directly, and other parts Of the world
indirectly, should be indefinitely prolonged.
II is conceded that peace is not possible
until there has been more significant fighting
The powers must really feel the force of oppos-
ing arms before they are apt to turn favorably
TO any peacemaker's plan. IT, however. all the
protestations by the crowned hends OF Europe
deplorng war are to be taken at their face
value. then we may hope for an early turn in
affairs. As the'progress OF events thus far has
made pacificists out OF many militants in neu-
tral lands, so We may look for a corresponding
effect upon some Of the influential ones in
volyed as the terrible drama moves on to its eli
max
The issues in the present struggle are daily
multiplying and the qualifications increasing
with each change that occurs. Old compacts
no longer hold, even blood relationship is not
safe gauge Of alliance and so many OF the
smaller nations are yet to declare themselves.
II is now believed Switzerland and Spain may
OF all the continental powers, remain outside the
ranks OF war. II so, Turkey will be soon fighting
its old allies, England and France but for its
same cherished prize, the Aegean Islands. and
Greece, Roumania and Bulgaria line up, each
TO satisfy its own ambition.
One glimpse OF this terrible ENHANCEMENT
surely suggests the task of peace The present
meaning of the war, its loss of life and property
paralysis OF business, financial cost of mainte-
nance with consequent and incidental pain and
suffering must eventually outweigh other con
siderations in the pursuit of peace

The War and the Farmsr


In another column of this page The Bee
prints letter in which the writer intimates
that for the American farmer TO take ADVANTAGE
OF war prices for the products he has to sell
marks him las the incarnation OF selfishness"
For the farmer we answer that he is no more
selfish in taking advantage of market condi-
TONS In war time, or any other time than is
the average business man selling his wares or
worlOingman selling his labor. The only place
where the farmer gets the better of il on this
occasion is that the rise of prices has taken
phce while his wheat, corn and other food
products are still in his own hands instead of in
the hands OF the middlemen who would other
wise have taken all the extra profit Because
the money Is to accrue to the farmer instead OF
to the Spectator will not alter the situation so
far as 1t concerns either the consumer at home
or the customer abroad. So long. therefore, as
the farmer does not resort to unfair methods to
influence the market what profits he may reap
through war prices will be his by rights, and
present no good ground for charging him with
either selfishness or lack OF sympathy for the
unfortunate burden-bearers of the war

Censored and Unosnsor.d Nsu,,

Those who. not only in times of war. but OF
peace as well, think they would prefer an Off
cial news censorship may now have an oppor-
tunity to see how such scheme works out in
practice All news from Europe is rlgidly CEN
sored today. yet is It more satisfactory because
OF that? Large volumes OF war news are being
received which may be more nearly accurate
than some are disposed to think but the fact
that the news filters through interested official
channels makes people skeptioal.
The point to be emphasized is that the way
to get accurate news is not to have Il censored.
for no matter who or what the censorship may
be. II eolors or suppresses the news, otherwise
there would be no occasion for censoring. Per-
lection may not be found In our usual processes
OF publicity any more than elsewhere yet surely
with accuracy its vital asset everyone knows
that the reputable newspaper prefers TO print
the truth, and all the truth. and, of course. can
get at the truth best when untrammelled nv

A Lesson in Efficiency.

The completion of the Panama canal months
ahead Of scheduled time is an object lesson in
maximum efficiency which all our public
servants may well take home to themselves. It
shows what can be done when the business
methods OF private industry are applied to pub
lie enterprise.
Former President Taft predicted the COM
pletion OF the canal by January l, 1915. II is
completed and ready for use now. Some work
remains to be done before the largest vessels
may pass through without difficulty, but II is
ready for use by all ships that now use the
Suez. Incidentally, that may mean more thnn
even the builders OF the Panama realized
Should the European war be long continued
there is no telling about the freedom of the
suez. and should 1t be closed, much larger traf-
Tic would go to the Panama.
In any event, peace, war or what not the
achievement wrought by the builders of our own
canal stands forth as a lasting tribute to their
genius and patriotism and an everlasting illus
tration of what might be accomplished all along
the line OF efficient public service, from the low
Hest municipal Job up to the highest federal
office with the same intelligent direction.
