"AFTER THE WHIRLWIND"

Charles Edward Russell, Socialist
candidate for governor of New York
sundry times. writer, lecturer, and
thinker, made speech in Philadel-
phia Sunday that has set the Social
lists by the ears. Mr.. Russell, a year
and a half ago, was a pretty ortho-
dox Socialist. He didn't believe in
war, and believed that preparation
for war made strife inevitable. He
was opposed to military prepared
ness, and among his animated writ
ings are to be found various muck
rakings of the "War Munitions
trust" That wicked monopoly was
long a favorite target for the objur-
cations of good and true Socialists.
But Mr.. Russell has been to Eu-
rope, and seen. He has learned. He
knows that war is here; theories
about what brought it are unimport-
ant in the presence of that fact. He
came back to America, convinced
that national safety demanded not
only preparedness, but the most rig.
orous and effective preparedness. He
wants the art military taught to cv.
crybody capable of bearing arms
lie would make a nation of soldiers
of us, convinced as he is that the
liberties for which our fathers
fought are worth even some fight.
ing by us, if need be.
Very sane and creditable doc.
trinc, it would appear to most folks
But it has gone hard with the So.
cialists. Their leaders are an,
nouncing now that Mr.. Russell ha.
eliminated himself from the list Of
possible candidates Of Socialism fol
the Presidency in 1916. for which h,
had been prominently discussed. Per
haps Mr.. Russell will not mucf
mind; perhaps, on the other hand, hi
will think it worth while to make
an issue inside his party and learr
whether the pacifist leaders car
lead their millions of Presidential
year Socialists any farther than thu
leaders took German Socialism.
Our Socialist propaganda wal
largely a "made in Germany" af
fair. 1t borrowed doctrines and or
ganization methods there. German.
was the high hope of world Social
ism. Then the war came, German
Socialism went for its gun, lined VI
in the front ranks Of the fighters
and academic Socialism melted be
fore the passionate heat Of greater
more immediate issues.
We suspect that is what woul'
happen if Mr.. Russell would nov
make an issue with the pacifists o
his party. 1t might be demonstrate
that the Socialists in America ar
as willing to prepare, when that i
the sensible thing to do. as the So
cialists in Germany were to fight
when fighting becomes the nationa
business.

RAIL FREIGHT BLocKADEs

In the transportation field some
of the older, cooler and wiser heads
are pointing out that the great and
growing railroad earnings are not
yet what they should be. They direct
attention to the fact that the com
parsons of earnings which are most
frequently made don't tell the whole
story of the past and don't indicate
the whole course Of the future.
Now it is true that to compare
earnings Of the present with earn
ings of year ago is in effect to
make a false comparison in so far as
it may give the impression that a
Transportation system taking in mil
lions more than it was taking In
twelve months ago must suddenly
have become a mint. This is true
because scarcely a railroad in the
United States could have maintained
its solvency If the conditions OF a
year ago had been long continued.
The same thing applies to 1913.
In the fall Of that wear the very
bottom was dropping out of the rail-
road business. Gross income and
net income were then shooting
downward with velocity and force
which threatened general disaster to
American railways unless they cut
their expenses to the hone, as they
then began to do and kept on doing
desperately month after month.
Nevertheless there is sure way
to tell that the great railways, IRE
spective of misleading comparisons
arc doing a huge business, a profit
able business, and swiftly expand
ing business. The proof lies in the
fact that trunk lines are refusing
to take millions of tons of export
traffic, while their presidents hole
conferences over the situation, be-
cause. for lack of shipping at the
ports, they are unable to discharge
such freight and to transfer it into
oceangoing bottoms.
This doesn't mean that the rail
roads haven't sidings and couidn''
arrange depot accommodations fol
such blockaded freight. 1t mean!
that they can't spare cars to be tiet
up in the freight blockades. There
is business enough-domcstic busi
ness-to keep all their cars ant
other equipment busy. 1t is th'
busy car that earns money. Ever!
hour that a loaded car is tied VI
when it could be hauling mor'
freight is a dead loss to the rail
road company.
There is so much domestic bust
ness that with this traffic the rail
roads can haul their ears virtual!
/, all the hours on the face of tn
, clock. So those that are in the eX
port traffic they take out as fast a
they can get them out, and thos
that are out they will not let go i
until such shipping facilities sha|
be arranged as will permit the car
to earn as much in the export a
in the domestic hauling.
When great transportation sys
tens, even though they cut out tn
! export traffic, can fill all the car
they are able to get hold Of, ther
5 is no more doubt about the pros
! pcrity of those railroads than thcr
r is about the shining Of the sun.

LATIN DETACHMENT
DEF|ES AUSTR|ANS
SMALL BAND OF ITALIANS
CROSSES lSONZO DESPITE
MURDEROUS FIRE,
VIOLENT BATTLE At GORiTZ
Cordorna Directs Heavy Attack
Against Bridge Head-Troops Make
Daring Night Assault on ToI-
mino-Capture Trenches.

Rome, July 24.-In the face of a
murderous fire, a small Italian de-
tachment forced a crossing OF the
1sonzo three miles above Goritz and
dug themselves in at the western
base Of Monte Santo. Latest dis
patches said they were maintaining
their position despite heavy attacks
on all sides and were blocking the
transport of munitions to the Aus
TRANS fighting around PLAYA.
The daring coup of this small body
OF men is one of the notable exploits
of the heavy fighting now proceeding
around Goritz.
Though the Italians must inevitably
either retire or face humiliation,
every hour they withstand the Aus
trian attacks aids the Italians in their
onslaughts against the northern de-
lenses of Goritz.
Occupy Austrian Positions.
The Bersaglieri crossed the river
in scows and on pontoons. They had
reached the eastern bank of the Ison-
20 before they were discovered.
Searchlights on Monte Santo were
played upon them but before the enc
my artillery could sweep their ranks
effectively, the Italians drove the
Austrians from their armored con-
crete trenches on the high road at
the foot of the hills and occupied the
positions.
A similar, though less daring ex-
plot, was performed by Italian troops
operating against Tolmino. BY a sur
prise attack they crossed the Isonzo
and captured trenches held by the
Austrians opposite Sella Soto. All
reports received here indicated that
a violent battle is proceeding west
of Goritz where General Cadorna is
directing a heavy attack against the
Austrian bridgehead.

FOR i. S. NATIONAL DEFENSE
PRESIDENT TO PROPOSE NAVAL
PROGRAM TO CONGRESS.
Desires Navy to Stand on Equality
With Most Efficient Fighting
Sea Force Of Any Power.

Washington, July rs. - President
Wilson has called for reports on the
subject Of national defense. These
will be made to him personally by
the heads of the navy and war de-
partments. The fact that this action
had been taken became known here
after the release for publication of
the note to Germany relating to sub
marine warfare
Without regard to present day con-
troyersies, the President, in associa-
ton with heads of various depart
ments, has been giving attention for
some time to the preparation of an
adequate naval program which he will
propose to Congress at the proper
time. He will study this subject on
his visit to Cornish, N. H., and when
ne again returns here may be pre-
pared to discuss it with his advisers.
Practical Advice Sought.
For the time being the President
feels that it is desirable to drop all
discussion Of the controversy with
Germany, that the object of this
weeks visit to Washington has been
accomplished and he is turning to
questions of permanent national pol
icy. Practical advice concerning ma
tional defense from every available
professional source is being sought.
1t is known, in fact, that the best
minds of the military branches of the
government have been at work on
these matters for some time
Men Of the army and navy who
have been most directly in touch
with conditions of defense that have
been evolved out of modern exper-
fence have been called upon for their
views. The President not only wishes
advice from those who have knoWl-
edge of actual conditions of warfare
existing in Europe today. but he is
seeking light from those who are able
to understand and comprehend all
possible phases Of altered conditions
on both land and sea. He particularly
wishes the navy to stand upon equal
ity with the most efficient and serv-
iceable fighting sea force maintained
by any power.

inhuman Acts Indefensible.

illegal and lnhoman acts, however
justifable they may be thought to be
against an enemy who is believed to
have acted in contrayention of law
and humanity, are manifestly indie
feasible when they deprive neutrals
of their acknowledged rights, particu-
larly when they violate the right to
life itself. If belligerent cannot re-
taliate against an enemy without in
juring the lives of neutrals, as we'll as
their property, humanity, as we'll as
justice and due regard for the dignity
OF neutral powers, should dictate that
the practice be discontinued. II per
sisted in it would i'm such circum-
stances constitute an objectionable Of
Tense against the sovereignty of the
neutral nation affected.
Unusual Aspects Of War No Excuse
The government of the United
States is not ur1nindful Of the extra
ordinary conditions created by this
war or of the radical alterations of
circumstance and method OF attack
produced by the use of instrumental
ties of naval warfare which the ma
tons OF the world cannot have had in
view when the existing rules of In
ternational law were formulated, and
it is ready to make every reasonable
allowance for these novel and unex-
pected aspects of war at sea; but it
cannot consent to abate any essential
fundamental right of it's people because
OF mere alteration of circumstance.
The rights of neutrals in time of war
are based upon principle, not upon
expediency, and the principles are i'm
mutable. 1t is the duty and obligation
OF belligerents to find way to adapt
the new circumstances to them.
Causes Of Offense Can Be Removed
The events of the past two months
have clearly indicated that it is DOS
sible and practicable to conduct such
submarine operations as have char
acterized the activity of the imperial
German navy within the so-called
war zone in substantial accord with
the accepted practices of regula ted
warfare. The whole world has looked
with interest and increasing satisfac-
ton at the demonstration of that DOS
sibility by German naval command
ers. It is manifestly possible, there
fore, to lift the whole practice of sub
marine attack above the criticism
which it has aroused and remove the
chief causes OF offense
Germany Admits Illegal Acts.
In view of the admission of il
legality made by the imperial German
government when it pleaded the right
OF retaliation in defense OF it's acts
and in view of the manifest possibil-
ity of conforming to the established
rules of naval. warfare, the govern
ment of the United States cannot be.
lieve that the imperial German gov.
eminent will longer refrain from dis.
| avowing the wanton act of it's naval
commander in sinking the Lusitania
or from offering reparation for the
American lives lost, so far as repara.
ton can be made for a needless de.
structicn Of human life by an illegal
| act
