Unpacking cases and spreading SAM

We shall learn all this, and more

Mr.. Buttons Advice.

Former Senator Burton has
brought back from South America
information about number OF points
bearing on the program of larger
business relations between this coun-
Try and those countries. While
transportation, to which The Star re-
ferred last week, is foremost in i'm
portance, il does not obscure other
features OF what must be attended to
il the full object in view is to be
accomplished.
We must study the tastes and Gus
toms of those toward whom we would
draw nearer. In many particulars
they differ from ours. We should
not try to change them to conform
TO ours. We must meet them on
their own ground. In that way both
the English and the Germans, who
have done so much down there, have
made their strides; and they will fol-
low i'll the same course when they
renew their activities at the close OF
the war.

The Poetic Process.

'"Oh. Geraldine! Oh, Geraldine
No matter where my footsteps
rove,
The sky reflects your smile serene,
Your voice comes whispering
through the grove"
So wrote bard in days gone by,
Who cut quill to make the pen
That gave expression to the sigh
He sought to share with other men,
His hand wrote on with scarce a
thought
OF punctuation or OF style
But now typist neatly taught
Takes the dictation with smile.
No more with finger to his brow,
And pen just poised above the ink,
He'd frame his verse-for this is how
The modern poet has to think:

In view OF his protestations that

The Anniversary of Serajevo.

One year ago today, June 2S, 1914
the shot was fired at Serajevo, Bos-
MIA, that killed the crown prince OF
Austria To those who knew the ex-
tremely delicate condition of Euro
pean politics. and particularly the in
tense strain between Austria and the
Balkan states. this tragedy was a
portent of the gravest evils. But to
the world at large. not familiar with
the intimate details of European re-
lationships. and not aware OF the
thorough preparedness of Germany
| for war with any power or combi-
nation OF powers, the Serajevo crime
appeared merely as another of the
fanatical assasSinations that have a
motive iii vengeance for real or I'M
agined national grievances. That it
was more than chance crime, that
it was plotted with far-seeing
shrewdness, that its chief actor was
but the tool OF great forces working
far beneath the surface OF things,
with the precipitation of the world
tragedy in view, is openly suggested
now by some.
In this year events have rushed
with appalling swiftness. Nation
after nation has been drawn into the
vortex of war. Even now. eleven
months after the first declaration OF
hostilities. three powers heretofore
neutral are expected soon to declare
themselves partisans OF one OF the
two great alignments. At present ten
are directly and two indirectly in
volved. The participation of three
others is imminent Millions of men
are enrolled in the ranks OF the fight
ers. Already the human sacrifices
amount to between two and three
millions, according to present esti-
mates, in killed and wounded. The
worlds trade is dislocated. and in
consequence the affairs OF all nations
are in disorder. reaching in effect
down to the humblest member of So
ciety.
1t is impossible at this juncture to
see any clearance of the world skies.
Most commentators on the war, with
any degree of acquaintance with
conditions. believe that the war will
last at least another year. Lord
Kitchener, at the outset OF the strug-
gle. estimated three years as its prob
able length. The prospect OF two or
even one more year OF such horror
is appalling, yet there is no force
available to bring about peace Evil
IDENTIFY for the present the nations
now in the grip OF the great passion
OF blood must fight and fight and
lose their best manhood and sacrifice
their resources without stint or limit.

plotted revolutionary movement,
for he fed from that country in haste
and his return there save at the head
of a military force would be equiva-
lent to walking into Jail. The pres
ence OF Orozco with him is addi-
tional proof that a plan of this sort
was on foot.
1t will be interesting to know Just
where the Huertista forces are and
by what means they have been as
sembled. Both the Carranzistas and
Nillistas express qualification at
Huertas arrest. and may not for the
present be suspected of harboring
any secret design to work with him,
the one against the other. Conse-
uuently there is no immediate sig
nihcance in the Huerta arres. re-
specting the prospective development
OF the American plan as to Mexico.

The New Fourth.
From the Baltimore American.

Gradually but surely during tho past
hve or six years We have been getting
away from the fashioned, loud
noise. bad-smell. whoop- boom and
racket kind Of glorious Fourth. The
fireworks we still have with us, but in
the big cities, at least. we have arrang-
ed things so that the over-patriotic
young American may see the show
from a seat in the rear. In many Of
the rural settlements and in some Of
the unreformed big towns patriotic
small boys are yet permitted to blow
their fingers off with cannon crackers
or toy cannons. But here in Baltimore
youthful patriots have been induced to
accept the more reasonable, more
gentle natured and altogether more
eventful kind Of celebration.

The National Defense.

In his address al the opening ses-
sion OF the Navy War College at
Newport. Secretary Daniels. after an
expression OF confidence that Con-
rrcss would be liberal at the COM
ing session in providing for the
navy. said:
Il hereby pledge myself to spare
no effort to assist this onward march.
Rest assured that what you plan will
ind a syinpathctic and attentive ear.

of office closes my successor will tind,
III orderly arrangement. the most
perfect plans and methods human
wisdom can invent. kept always up
to-datc. for the conduct of our navy
in time OF war. and it is here that the
studies necessary for such plans must
be carried on"
This assurance should mean much
to the cause OF preparedness against
war. That our sea equipment is in
adequate is common knowledge. Naval
experts deplorc it, and pacificists re-
joice in it. But the condition should
end now. With the Secretary OF the
q Navy cooperating with the experts.
and both advising Congress, encour-
aging increases in naval supplies
seem certain. Surely they are sorely
needed
Are we not authorized to expect

full sympathy with army increases
and reforms. He has given a great
deal OF attention to the subject. In
the speculation about filling the va
oancy in the State Department his
name was mentioned. But instantly
it was said that his services in the
War Department had been so valua-
Bile. and that department was now
so important. a change at this time
was inadvisable. Competent as he
was for the State Department. and
as highly as the President rated him
as an adviser, he could yet be OF more
help to the administration in the War
Department.
The movement for an adequate ma
tional defense was injured in the
Sixty-third Congress by prevailing
impression that the administration
was opposed to any material in
creases; and as that body was very
much under the Presidents influence,
appropriations for both the army and
the navy were lar too small.
We have now a new Congress, and
general situation very much
changed. The wars lessons have
been taken to heart. Nothing is
clearer today than that we are not
only not prepared against war, but
when our size and obligations as a
nation are considered our condition
is a reproach to US. The world won
ders. and we wonder ourselves.
With d new Congress, elected since
the war began, and the administra-
ton in a new attitude respecting the
national defense, the reproach should
be wiped out We should witness the
assertion OF new spirit, taking into
account a recognition of the fact
account recognition OF the
hand, is nor even scheduled for an
early appearance, and that il we
would preserve what we now have.
and particularly if we would add TO
our stature and store, we must make
tho preparations called for by a ro-
bust and practical world. We can
not escape either Our duty or our
company.
