Old Age Has Its Way.

Amiabe Mr. Wilding and canny Mr. Brookes
got fairly firm grip on the Davis Cup yesterday.
1t will require some luck and a mass of good
tennis TO break their hold today.
Strangely enough, it proved to be the youhgster
who showed the strain Of that famous lilo set
far more than did his elderly victim. The hand
of Brookes had lost some of its cunning, but his
was safe and sane tennis compared TO the erratic
tricks that McLoughlins tired nerves played. To
the veteran Bundy, on the American side of the
net belong the first honors Of the day He ut
tery routed his critics and fully justified his seec-
ton by the committee playing as well as any man
on the court and holding his speed dauntlessly in
the face Of disaster
Altogether it a day for the old heads and
experienced hands, and demonstrated anew that
in doubles. at any rate, you can come perilouslv
close TO forty and stin rank with the best.

A Victim of the Uplift.

The appointment Of jeremiah F. Connor as
counsel TO the Workmens Compensation Commits
sion must make George NJ Palmer once Demo
cratic state Chairman, think the upft is what
General sherman called war. Palmer was the
chief victim Of the uplift When Governor Glynn
started in TO regenerate Democracy by a process
painless to Tammany It became necessary to side
track Palmer, who was Murphy's rubber STAMP
But Palmer declined TO remove himself and the
Glynn uplifters didn't have the votes or the cour
age to endeayor to throw him out Suddenly
Palmer announced HIS resignation In a guileless
statement in which he declared that friends have
suggested that l take the position Of counsel to
the Compensation Commission" which would leave
him no time to be state chairman The Compensa
ton Commission at that time was not in existence
Ever since Palmer has been vainly seeking the
consolation prize. Nobody but himself will grieve
over the loss. A who could so reveal the
sawdust stuffng Of the uplift was not much good
TO Governor Glynn and was manfestly not half
clever enough for the man9uvres Of Murphy
Though another Murphy man got this Job the
public can at least have the satisfaction that il
was not used in payment OF an upllft debt and
the additional satisfaction that an Individual
capable Of Mr. Palmer's performances Is not I'm
the public service in any capacity.

Help the Red Cross Help Humanity.

To enable it to send doctors, nurses, medicines

and generous reply Whatever may be the indi-

war, there can be only one opinion about the
splendid work of this organization, whose devoted
agents tend the suffering, care for the wounded,
aid the dying, without thought Of race lines. 1t is
work for humanity.
The American Red Cross intends TO send hos.

The Great Day at Panama.

Fuss and feathers have been notably lacking
from the operations which went into the making
OF the Panama Canal Things were done, and that
was enough. So now it is altogether appropriate
that the opening OF the route to general traffic
should come without any special blowing Of trum-
pets.
The steamship Ancon Of the Panama Line Is
scheduled to make the official trial trip to-day.
Colonel Goethals and his aids TO be on board,
and after their vessel has climbed up Gatun,
passed through Culebra and down Pedro Miguel
and Mlrahores. the canal will be declared formally
open 10 the commerce OF the world. Thereupon
the procession Of ships over the backbone Of the
Americas will commence.
II is the great day for Panama, no matter how
magnificent a spectacle the celebration Of next
year will be. The greatest achievement Of Amerl-
can courage and skill has been finished and its
triumph stands for the ages II is the happy lot
Of the engineer that his accomplishment is its
own monument and song and story.

MONARCHICAL ALLEGIANCE
An Illustration Of What Americans
Object To.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The stats Zeitung" this
morning furnishes an apt though un.
conscious illustration of the point OF
view which. TO its amazement and IN
dignation, has elected such unfavora-
BILE criticism from the American public
and press. IL says:
THE Austro-Hungarian army Is
filled with the spirit of devotion TO the
aged Emperor Francis Joseph, and
their duty toward him takes precedence
over everything else. And they are
filled with the spirit of Archduke
Francis Ferdinand, whom the scoun-
drels have shot down. The ghost OF
Francis Ferdinand extends his inhu-
ence beyond the grave which could not
bury it.
"The army corps is there. The lard
Of the Hapsburgs is observing the
faith of the Nibelungen and HIS
stepped up TO the side of the German
friend and confederate with cleaning
sword"
This is exactly the spirit to which
we are opposed. Austria is not "the
land of the Hapsburgs"; II is the land
Of the industrious and hard working
Austrian people: Germany is not "the
land of the Hohenzollerns"; il is the
land Of the great industrial German
nation, Who have our warmest sympa
thy. True, the murder of Francis Fer
dinand was a dastardly outrage; so was
the shooting OF Gaynor or Roosevelt.
But because Francis Ferdinand was q
Hspsburg, and because the German ma

POLITICIANS CAUSE WAR
And Then They Pose as Statesmen, at
a Safe Distance, He Says.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: It is my earnest hope, notwith-
standing the barring of newspaper cor
respondents from the scene of action,
that through some means the awful
ness of this strife and of war in gem
eral may be pictured in such vivid
colors as to end all thought of another
conflict between civilized nations.
Love of country is glorious, but there
are finer brands Of patriotism than
those shown in the shedding Of human
blood.
War is autocratic, not democratic,
and am not a socialist by any means.
War is the work of politicians, both
here and abroad, and a matter in which
the people have no voice. This would
be well enough if these gentry were
to fight it out among themselves, like
rival gangs, but they would not think
of going to war, preferring to pose as
statesmen at a safe distance from the
seat of operations and to spend thei:
time in dividing jobs and fat contracts
among their followers.
The poor victims of war are boys like
yours and mine, boys eighteen TO
twenty-one years old, sent forth to be
tangled up by thousands in barbed
wire, while the guns tear them apart;
to lie for hours, dying horrible deaths,
and. dying, to be burned in heaps like
offal. For what purpose? God knows.
We cannot point finger at Germany.
Our wars with Mexico, with the South,
with Spain, were all politicians wars,
without any reasonable excuse, and de-
termined nothing but what could have
been settled equally well without the
shedding of blood or the spending OF
treasure.
God grant that the day may como
when the people will take this matter
into their own hands, and then. war
will cease. We will not be angels by
any means, but just sensible.

FOR BRITISH RELIEF FUND
An Englishman Appeals to His Coun.
trymen to Contribute.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The Prince of Wales fund for
the relief of the families of British
soldiers and sailors who have been
called to the war has, | hear, already
reached the sum of s2,500,000 TO which
sum many Americans most generously
contributed, among them being Alfred
G.. Vanderbilt, who not only subscribed
$4,000 but also presented his valuable
horses over sixty in number-for
army purposes. There must be many
thousands Of patriotic British subjects
in the United States who would, am
sure, be only too glad to donate money
to this most excellent fund if they
knew to whom to send their contribu-
tons.
The Columbia Trust Company, Of 358
9TH av., New York, has most kindly
consented TO receive all moneys do
mated to this fund and remit the same
to London.
Trusting that my fellow country
men will heartily respond to this APP

RESERVISTS WARNED
Il Is Suggested They May Find IL
Impossible to Re-enter U. ).
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Does not duty devolve upon
some one-upon you, for instanceIin
the way of speaking a word OF warning
to the reservists of various nationali-
ties who are 'anxiously striving to reach
the seat of military activity in Europe,
but are at present held up in various
seaports of ours because they cannot
qualify as long distance swimmers
Il seems to me il should be suggested
TO these patriotic persons that, having
luckily escaped death, II they present
themselves at our doors few months
hence, shorn of one or more limbs or
affected by serious disease or its last
ing results, they may certainly count
on finding the doors shut against them
on the ground that they are undeslr-
able and likely TO become public
charge; and this in spite of the fact
that they have vested interests in this
country and that their families are
resident in some state.
Further. isn't il q distinct possibility
that some of these reservists, in their
enthusiasm for the "fatherland," have
forgotten that once on a time they
took out naturalization papers? And
would not it be an improperly on the
part Of the United States knowingly TO
allow such persons to take part in the
trouble? WILLIAM R0TCH WARE.

LET EDITORS BE SILENT
Wants President to Taboo Cause of
War as Subject Of Discussion.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t would be well for the Ameri-
can people to keep their wits about
them in these times that try mems
souls. Mayor Mitchell has made wise
suggestion that all paraders carry only
American flags, so as TO give offence
TO no man, no matter what his nation
ality. | would also suggest that Pres
ident Wilson issue a proclamation sug-
costing that all American editors re-
frain from commenting editorially on
the cause of this war; that they re-
frain from placing the blame on any
particular country or party; that they
refrain from infaming the minds of
their readers against the citizens Of
any country with whom we are at
peace, and that they refrain from
printing news which is not reliable and
which they know is unreliable.
We should hesitate before antagoniz-
ing the vast numbers Of our German
born citizens. In every crisis in the
history of our government they have
been tried and not found wanting.
They are the most faithful. loyal and
law-sbiding citizens We have among
US. What will il profit US IL we embt-
ter them now? This quarrel does not
concern us; why take sides in it? Let
us thank God that a vast ocean sep
arates US from the conflict and let us
pray that the time may soon come when
the American nation, with malice
toward none and friendship for all'
can with outstretched arms say to all
the combatants: Come, let us have
peace. PHILIP F. MALOY.

WHAT ABOUT THE ESSEX7
Her Activities Outside the Harbor
Called in Question.
; Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: read in your paper that
H. NJ. S. Essex is outside of New York
Harbor and stopping steamers of neu-
trial nations before entering New York,
shooting across their bows If they do
not Immediately stop.
May ! ask what would England say
if an American man-o'-war were acting
in the same capacity at the entrance to
the Thames mean the harbor Of
London? Or worse, even, if German
man-o'-war would act in the same
capacity before the harbor of New
York? Would not a rousing howl go
up and protests be rushed to Washing
ton against this impudent German ac-
ton? But about the Essex not a word
is said, and the United States quietly
submits.
II the fortune Of war should decide
against Germany. its navy be destroyed
and army crushed, thereby eliminating
the present balance Of power which

chine may break down from overstrain. IL will

WHY SHOULD SUGAR RIsE7
1t Is Suggested That the Government
Get After the Re6ners.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The price Of another household
necessity has gone up. Sugar at
cents a pound, or pe<laps s, means the
formidable strengthening Of the Sugar
Trusts surplus Golfers, the distribution
Of an extra dividend, and at the other
extreme the commoner feeced of some
more scarce pennies. With most or
our sugar coming from neutral coun.
tries and with our own soil yielding
plentiful supply. it is difficult 10 ac-
count for the rise without pointing tho
finger Of shame at the rapacious few
who control the situation.
Is the temperature OF the Sugar
Trust like that Of the rank and hle or
the mob, which rises with that Of their
leader? With the price of commodities
going uphill, there is no need for the
sympathetic accompaniment OF the
sugar dispensers. They have sufficient
ly elevated themselves by their own
loeomotion without attempting TO join
the vanguard of those really justified
in their course. Can the government
do nothing? HENRY WENDELL.

WHAT A BAKER IS UP AGAINST
His Supplies Are Rapidly Rising in
Price.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: We have carefully read your
article in to-dsy's Tribune headed
Housewives League Seeks Help OF
District Attorney in Fight on Mer-
chants" The part relative TO the baker
particularly interests US, and from the
same we have drawn the following con-
illusions.
The sound Of Mrs. Heath's axe swing
ing on the baker seems very nice and
possibly is good reading to a person
not familiar with this line of business;
but it is unjust, worded in a depreciat-
ing way and not in conformity with
the situation that confronts the bakers
to-day.
Granted that the country has
bumper crop Of wheat. and export sales
have fallen of, and that -four has ae-
cumulated somewhere. But where is
the -four, who Is holding it, what res-
son can the -four jobbers give for ask
ing the baker 25 per cent more than
two weeks ago? You will have 10 60

AOt the huHWtAs
Sugar has advanced over one cent
pound. meaning ar increase of SO 90 70
So barrel. Go TO the fountain source
and inquire of the American Sugar Re-
fining Company the cause of the raise.
A few figures may be of value. The
finished product ready to be sold TO
the customer costs the baker as fol-
lows: Materials, IS TO so per cent;
manufacturing and selling salaries,
overhead charges and other expenses,
from % TO 33 l-3 per cent. This leaves
a balance Of 1919 TO 20 per cent when
materials are on a normal basis. Within
the last two weeks materials have sd
vanced throughout over 25 per cent,
which eliminates the profit of even tho
best paying business-the net result
being that the baker is forced TO raise
his prices or discontinue business.
We request that you give this COM
munieation the same publicity as to-
days item, not only as protector TO
the baking trade from loose talk, but
also as statement of fact concerning
the situation that confronts one OF the
most important industries of the United
States ROTH & CLERGY,
