What War MOOeS Mean
By ]. w. T. MASON.

NEW YORK. Dec. 7.-Simultape-
ously with Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg's victory at Lodz. Ber-
lin makes the first official an
nouncement Of the war since the
battle of the Marine. that the Ger
mans have been compelled to
abandon a French position. The
German evacuation of Nernelles,
between Lille and Arras, thus may
turn out to possess much greater
significance than the defeat OF
the Russians in Poland.
The two operations, though re-
moved from each other by a great
distance. are closely related. There
seems no doubt but that the Rus
sian victory has been won with
troops withdrawn from France
and Belgium. 1t appears evident.
too that the allies are now more
nearly on an equality with the
German strength in the west than
at any time since the war began.
Nevertheless, TO predict, from this
change in the situation. that the
Germans soon viii be out Of west
ern France and Belgium would
be hazardous The future situation
in the west depends on conditions
in Russia.
1t is certain, however, that Ger
many counts far more on the neces-
sity for preventing a Russian inva-
sion of German territory than on
holding off the allies in the west
Russia's penetration into the heart
OF Germany would inevitably mean a
Gripping loss Of territory TO the
HohenZolierns. Furthermore. there
Is no continuous. natural barrier in
the east such as the Rhine forms in
the west. Compelled to choose be-
tween weakening her western army
The Washington times., 1914-12-07

or letting the Slav horde overrun the
Prussian provinces, Germany cannot
anord to hesitate a moment. There
fore, any immediate success that
may be counted upon by the western
allies will depend on the develop
ment OF the eastern peril.
At present, this danger is not
pressing. The result of the battle Of
LODI demonstrates that Won Hinden-
burg has enough troops to hold the
Russian army a safe distance from
the German frontier. II, however,
the Slavs are able eventually 10 sur
pass themselves and develop
strategic situation that cannot quick
~ be overridden by Won Hindenburg.
there must be other Withdrawals
from the German forces in France
and Belgium. Then, the announce
ment Of the abandonment Of Yer
nelles will be followed by far more
serious retirements.
The surrender of Vernelles itself
is not considered important enough
to be mentioned in the French Of
fetal report. Nevertheless, il sug-
gests the direction of the present
objective OF the allies. The center
Of the allies offensive seems to have
been moved south of Ypres. where
the British army has its headquart-
ers. II now apparently is developing
toward Lens. metween Lille and
toward Lens. between Lille and
and Arras as n railway and high
road center, and is the nearest i'm
pOrtant point 10 DOuai. twelve miles
10 the east. At Douai, the outer de-
fenses Of the German communiCa-
lions begin. DOuars capture
would mean the beginning of the
end OF the German occupation of
French territory, unless German
troops could be withdrawn from the
Russian border for a new western
offensive.

CRITICS ANSWERED
BY MAJOR SYLVESTER
Police Head Declares That
Figures Prove Activities of
the Vice Squad.

Answering a criticism of the Police
Department made by the Rev. Charles
+. Granger. OF the Gurley Memorial
Presbyterian Church, who charged
that the police were responsible for
alleged vice conditions in the Dis
trict, Major Richard Sylvester today
said that the department has no in
formation OF ANY extensive or ex-
aRgerated vice conditions"
''The records of the actual situation
not an imaginary situation--show
that conditions have been improving
steadily ever since the Kenyon law
became operative, and that they are
still improving. OF course, conditions
have changed greatly since the aooli-
tion of the segregated district. but
the police have the situation well in
hand and the records show it."
Vice Squad Adequate.
Major Sylvester said he was at a
loss to understand where the Rev.
Mr.. Granger got the information on
which he based the charges which he
was quoted as making. Relative to
the charge that the vice squad was
inadequate to handle the situation.
the major said that the best evidence
to refute such a charge were the
actual figures. In less Than month";
he said, the records show that the
vice squads made SIS arrests and OBJ
tanned So convictions.
Furthermore" said Major Sylvester
Sergeant Cats, who is In charge OF
this squad, has reported to me that he
has sufficient help to handle the situa-
ton. He has been given every assist
ance that he has asked for, and all the
men he has asked for. These criticisms
are made by people who do not know
the facts
Will Be Increased Later.
After the holidays, the major said,
when the necessity OF extra details OF
men in the business sections is over, he
expects to materially increase the size
of the vice squad. with a view of more
quickly accomplishing results that are
now being obtained slowly. The major
said that ne believed certain real estate
owners are opposed to the Kenyon law
because il holds them responsible II
their property is used for immoral pur-
poses, and that from such sources criti-
cism of the police would always be
made.
Major Sylvester said further that II
peopie who want to criticise the police
would get the facts and not base their
statements on hearsay evidence, they
would take a different view OF the man.

MRS DURHAM'S GUEST.

Miss Adelina Black of Murfrees-
boro Tenn, who is the guest of her
sister, Mrs. L. +. Durham, was the
inspiration of a most attractive Rock
party given in her honor by her sis
ter on Wednesday afternoon.
The rooms of the pretty home were
very bright and lovely with quantities
of pink and white roses, with ferns
and potted plants. and four tables
were devoted to the play, the guests
being unmarried friends OF the hos
tess whom Miss Black has met during
her visit.
An ice course was served. the ices,
cakes and minis carrying out the pink
and white. Mrs. B. s. Williams scored,
and the hostess was assisted in re-
ceiving and entertaining her guests,
by Mrs. John Pace and Mrs. Charles
Rice.
The courtesy was one of the most
delightful of the spring season, and
the guests carried away a very happy
memory of the afternoon.

COMMITTEE TO ELECT SITE,
NAMED AND DECISION REACH.
ED TO ERECT BUILDING ES.
PEcIALLY FOR SCHOOL Ex-
HIBITS.

AT d meeting of the directors of the
Escambia County Fair Association,
which was held yesterday, many mat
ters preliminary to the coming fair
were discussed, and the indications
are that the EScambia county attrac-
tions will be numerous next fall when
the gates open. In line with action at
a previous meeting, exhibits from this
county alone will be featured in the
prize contests, although other counties
and sections will not be barred from
taking space for their respective eX-
hibitS.
School Exhibits.
County schools will be looked after
in the coming fair more generally
than ever. y committee was named to
confer with the school board or the
latter body's representatives, relative
to the exhibit from the county schools
and it was decided to arrange for the
erection of a building on the site to
be selected especially to house the
school exhibits. At the last Interstate
Fair, the exhibits from the schools of
the county were many and beautiful,
and were OF such a nature as to sur
prise the Pensacola public. 1t only
needed a little encouragement to
bring out the exhibits a little more
profuse, and the committee will look
into the matter of the erection of a.
school building for exhibits imme-
dfately upon the site being selected.
The committee on site selection Will
get together at once and close up this
important preliminary at once. Sew
eral sites are under consideration.
Miss Fannie Caldwell was selected
to presio& over the Woman's Depart
ment, her work in this regard during
the last fair being of the highest and
most pleasing order.

BECAUSE OF HER.

With bare brown legs and faded ging-
ham gown,
I saw her first-a lovely girl.
Her slender fingers clasped within my
own,
with low sweet laughter, set my
heart awhirl,
From out her wondrous eyes Of darkest
blue
shone forth soul all pure and UNI
And all things young and beautiful
An added charm because she was a
child.
Again I saw her as a maiden grown,
A han-ope'd blossom, whose rare
grace fulfilled
The promise OF the bud, and yet gave
hints
OF greater glOries, when. if God so
willed.
The half-grown rose should open to
fullest flower,
brought my gifts of frankincense
and myrrh.
To lay them at her feet; and evermore
reverenced womanhood, because
OF Her.
And now I watch the rocking to and
And grooming low within the DIM
ming light;
tiny head is pillowed on her arm,
Ae tiny form is cuddled warm and
tight,
A glow is on her face-a light. me-
thinks
That never on the land or sea did
rest,
All motherhood is sacred now to me,
Because 1t is my baby at her breast.

VIEWS OF LILLIAN NORDICA
ON THE SUFFRAGE QUESTION.

Lillian Nordica, just returned from
concert tour of the west, talked to a
Boston the other day and gave some
very sane views on equal suffrage, says
an exchange.
Suffrage is not a question of sex, she
said but of thought. Heretofore the
world has been ruled by physical force.
and man, having superior physical
powers and endurance, dominated the
woman: but things have changed
ideas are gaining the supremacy and
the thought of woman is as intelligent
and as powerful as that of man.
She has been a suffragist she said
from early girIhood-from the time
when she came to Boston and sang in
churches of the city She found then.
she said, that woman enters the world
handicapped by her position and lack
of authority. This convinced her Of
the necessity of the ballot for woman
to give her an equal place in the world
with men, and she has advocated it
since. The women who take position
in opposition to this. she declared.
have never come in contact with real
issues.
Protected by fathers, brothers and
husbands, they We're ignorant, she
said, of the conditions under which
their sister women worked, and of
course said the place of woman is in
the home" Let them stay in the home
If they can and wish to, but what of
the women who cannot?
The question was not a contest of
woman against man, she declared, but
woman with man, to bring cut better
conditions for both. Man has been
busy formulating The government and
taking care of his family. His prob
lem has grown ahead of him. He has
not had time to study certain ques-
lions which are now pressing. He
needs the woman's help. The woman
has time for these things. She has
studied them and is ready.
THE first work of woman upon re-
ceiving the ballot she continued,
would be to attend to the needs of
women and children. Woman needs
the right to make the laws that shall
govern her children.
will 1t change her If, when she
knows a certain sum of money has
been appropriated for paving the
street upon which her children play,
she demands TO know why the paving
is not done. There are other condi-
tons which need the help of the wo-
men to meet.
You will never have peace among
nations without women. You meet at
The Hague, you have conferences and
public addresses, and not a woman
among them. Peace will never be at
tanned in that way. The women have
got to come into it. Their ideas and
their work are needed

Fishermen who are in the mackerel
