Many plans have been advanced
and considered by the navy depart

accidents below the surface. Some of
these ideas have proved entirely i'm
practical, as for instance a plan TO
provide each man aboard the sub

found that the helmets took up so

Jackson's Tennessee frontiersmen

fact, Jackson's great rival, Clay, had
won the victory in advance. The
statesman had done by persistence
and brilliant diplomatic strategy
what the soldier afterward did by
magnificent military maneuvering:
convinced Britain that she would
not retain the right to navigate the

BATTLE OF NEW Or
LEANS

No one incident in American his
tory did more to ground and sus-
tain the self-respect of this nation
than the battle of New Orleans. 1t was
fought hundred years ago yester-
day, after the peace Of Client had
officially ended the war Of 1912.
The news of the battle was spread
to practically all sections of the
country before the news of the peace
had arrived; and it revived the
dropping spirits of a people who
realized, as few Americans do to-
day. that the war had not been
credit to their country. It was the
great military achievement of the
war. A few days after the country
knew of it, the news Of peace came
and the public, not worrying much
about the peace conditions, assumed
that a peace announced after such 9
victory must be highly honorable, a.
any peace was at that time earnest
ly desired.
But the battle of New Orleans die
not in fact save the national face

ment of Clay, Quincy Adams, Gala

THE MID.WlNTER WAR

The war has not been quite SO
fast and furious since the winter
came down on its stage, but it has
been pushed with more intensity
than was expected would be possible.
The relaxation has been noted
chiefly in the western area, and it
has been marked by passing Of
the offensive from the Germans to
the allies. The Germans were COM
PEELED considerably to weaken their
western front in order to use the
troops at the east in fighting back
the Russian advance. They We're
careful to leave in the western
trenches plenty Of force to defend;
but the failure Of the November and
December drive at Warsaw, the cs-
| cape of Russian army that seemed
to have been caught in a wise, and
the turning of that near-victory fol
the Germans into something very
much like great disaster for them
these rapid developments demanded
vet more transfer Of troops to the
eastern front.
The allies on the west have beer
able to take the offensive, and will
ihig additional forces coming to them
in the next few months they will
undoubtedly, make the most desper
ate efforts to hold it. They have
launched an invasion of Alsact
which is not going to be like TIL
reconnaissance in that territory a
the beginning Of the war. Tha
, movement was designed to feel ou
the German line, ascertain where th'
great forces had been concentrates
for the drive on Paris, and then fal
back. 1t served it's purpose; it prove'
that the general German assault wa
to be by way of Belgium.
Despite the rigors of winter, fight
| ing has been continued intermittent
! " along the western line, and tn
!. ficrcest struggles have been presse
: in Poland. The reports are conflict

allies. This morning brings more
definite report than ever before Of
an important Turkish disaster in the
Caucasus. Germany is said to be
sending 10000 troops to aid Austria
against the Servians. Italy and
Roumania are unquestionably near
er to getting into the war than they
have been; for with their participa-
tion regarded as almost certain at
some stage, the passage Of a day
brings that participation a day
closer.
Failing in it's present attempt on
Russian Poland, Germany has, un-
doubtedly, lost it's last chance to
emass q sufficient force in that
arena to make a successful invas-
ion Of Russia at any time. When the
war opened, the German plan wal
most menacing: to seize Paris and
crush France in six weeks; then to
hurl everything into the east, and
give like treatment to Russia before
Russia, with few railroads and ire
mendous distances to cover, could
mobilize force enough to hold hel

But the day for that strategy il

PAN.AMERICAN RAILWAY

For close-knit commercial rela-
tionship between the United States
and the rest of the hemisphere rail-
road communication is indispensable.
Cables convey messages; ships carry
freight; but intimate personal &C.
quaintanceship and cooperation be-
tween firms of different countries de-
pepd upon quick travel. Shortening
gby two weeks, say, the time required
for a round trip from New York to
Buenos Ayres, would make a profit
able journey possible to many whose
business interests at home are too
engrossing to permit tfo present
slow voyage.
The Pan-American railway, sur
vcyed and partly built from Alaska
to southern Chile, will promote good
understanding between the CONT.
rents, encourage language study
stimulate undeveloped countries and
help trade.
OF this railway more than half is
already in operation. Great gaps
still occur in Alaska and western
Canada, more than rs per cent Of
the Central American section ane
through Colombia, Ecuador, ant
Peru. Connection is made with th'
eastern coast of South America b,
the Andean railway and by branch
lines leading to the matchless water
ways of Argentina, Brazil, ant
Venezuela.

NEW YORK'S SUBWAY

New York's subway accident seems
to have been due to one of those
things that are not ordinarily ac-
counted sources Of danger. The
whole city, and with it the whole
country, may today offer thanksgiv-
ing that a terrible catastrophe did
not occur. 1t seems as if only a
Providence grown merciful at the
last moment prevented one.
AS for the lesson: A metropolitan
population unaware of the possibil-
ity of such disaster has used the
subways daily and confidently. That
same population, grown aware of the
possibility, will hardly use them
without an ever-present sense OF
dread. The horror of what has hap.
pcncd may easily be forgotten; but
not the realization of what might
have happened OF may happen al
any moment unless means of obvi
ating it be found.

WHY PRICES ARE HIGH

Blaming the dealers in grain for
the high prices is rather a useless
business, 50 long as wheat is stead
lily flowing out Of the country at the
rate Of more than . million bushels
. day. Prices are high because there
is demand for the grain, and willing
ness to pay them, abroad.
Likewise, blaming the packers or
the farmers or anybody else for the
high prices of meat is useless, when
the worlds needs are considered,
and then contrasted with the facts
about our reduced supply. Mr.. J.
Ogden Armour is quoted as saying
that in 1907 the country had 5l,-
100000 head of meat cattle; seven
years later, only $500, 900. Yet the
smaller number Of 1914 were worth
1886, ,000, 900 more than the large.
number Of 1907. No wonder prices
have gone up!
Mr.. Armour is in the meat bust.
ness himself; but it will not do to
attempt discrediting his figures. He
didn't make them. They represent
the determination Of the Depart.
ment Of Agriculture.
Meat is fed on grain. When wheat
goes up to such figures as are nov
quoted, it carries other grains with
it because they must be used as sub
stitutes for wheat. Corn has aviatet
along with wheat; and with corr
skyscraping, the cattle feeder whit
furnishes our beef must get more fol
the beef, else he cannot provide th'
corn on which to feed it.
There is warning that, with houl
touching new top figures, the pric'
Of loaf bread will have to go up o.
the weight down. Blaming the mill
ers, the farmers, the bakers, will no
help the situation, or convince any
body. 1t is a reflection of tn
worlds needs and its inability t
provide them. When Civilization
spends a month tearing down it
work of years; when a year of wa
can wipe out the values that cen
turtles have slowly piled up, ther
must be some new adjustments. Tn
worlds balance between supply an
demand is delicate enough in time
of peace and construction; war an
destruction on scale never befor
imagined can mean only that tn
price must be paid somewher.
