WAR AND PEOPLE.

r. VERY one who pretends TO special knowledge along
sociological lines and has an opportunity to disport
himself In "the focus as the old.time actor was
wont to express it, is making predictions as to what the
result of the war will be in regard to the human race. The
fact that no one knows warrants these specialists in ex.
tending themselves. They feel safe from being disputed
and by the time the war is over their predictions will
long since have been forgotten. Meanwhile they have
had the notoriety.
One speaking In California is predicting tho advent o.
the really truly new woman. compared with whom the
ones We have been encountering are fimsy limitations
Another speaker In some other part OF the world assumes
that the war will bring about a new type OF man. but he
neglects to specify just wherein the newcomer will DIFF.
fer from the old or even the presentday specimen. Still
another is of the opinion that the war will not only
change the type and characteristics of the Aryan race.
but all things that have to do with It's development. From
Herman Sudermann to the lowliest follower OF Mrs. Bel.
mont, the visionseers are undismayed.
OF course such predictions are predicted oil nothing
except fancy. which Is rather unsubstantial. While all
wars have naturally resulted in physical changes which
directly affected the people, human nature remained
practically the same as 1t will do after the present con.
fict is ended. Humanity is not affected by sudden alter.
atoms. 1t is the slow process Of evolution that brings
results and no one can foresee that the adoption Of ad.
yocated principles today will be of benefit to the men
and women of even 80 years to come. War can directly
affect only the physical, and what may be the remote
consequences on race development OF the international
conflict is idle speculation which may amuse those who
indulge in it. In the meantime humanity will remain
unchanged.

CONCEDE ALL DEMANDS.

THAT GERMANY intends To assume a different at.
titudej in the matter of submarine warfare and that
she Is going in the future TO try to keep up friendly
relations with this country is indicated by the tenor OF
. message from Berlin yesterday. 1t states that all
trouble with the United States on the score OF submarine
warfare, has been settled and that Germany has granted
the demands of President Wilson.
An order has been issued to the submarine command
ersf to the effect that they are to be extremely careful
IN making attacks on liners, and that all doubt is to be
removed as 70 the nature OF a boat before 1t is subjected
10 an attack. In cases OF doubt, the commanders have
been instructed TO take a safe course and to allow ships
70 escape rather than to run the chance of making the
slightestl error. This order supplements the order given
that ships were not 10 be attacked without warning and
that passengers were to be given a chance to escape.
This statement from the Germans should give salts
faction to the most radical minds; and there ia every
reason to believe that Germany means to keep her word
IN regard to this matter. The general trend OF opinion
In Germany Of late is TO make up the differences with
this country and get down TO a sensible working basis.
With the German question practically settled, Presi-
dent Wilson and the member OF his cabinet can turn
their attention to the Mexican matter and the gross
violations Of international law pcrpctrated by Great
Britain. It is understood that Wilson is preparing a
sharp note to England, which will practically amount
70 o showdown as to what course England intends TO
pursue In the future. England has committed as many
orenses against International law as has Germany, al.
though in a different line; and Wilson is going TO dc.
mand that she respect the rights Of this country.

LOAN ALMOST

n -sNow seems almost certain that the loan which the
foreign representatives have been endeayoring to
: negotiate with the American bankers during the past
week orItwo will go through, according to those who are
In close touch with the situation. There are still a few
details to be worked out before the gigantic financial
deal Is put over; but these details are of no great import,
ance and little trouble is anticipated in closing the deal.
The loan. while not as large as was asked for originally,
The West Virginian. [volume] (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1914-1974, 1915-09-23

is still large enough and the United States may feel the
evil ehects Of jumping into such a proposition before
many months. 1t Is q long chance that Is being taken
by the American fnanciers.
AS outlined by American bankers, the proposed credit
loan win be for approximately s70oy0oo,0oo. 1t win be
issued on ~fye-year Joint Angio-French notes, which prob.
ably will be convertible on maturity, tat the holders OPP
ton, into Joint AngloFfech AZ per cent bonds matur-
ing 20 years, or thereabouts. from the date OF issue The
hye.year notes will be sold to the investor at par and to
the big underwriting syndicate at something less than
and 90 per cent.
Munitions of war, these bankers assert, will be vir-
tually excluded from the operation Of thefloan.

capacity. 1t is quite able to accommo-
date twelve men in the body of the
machine, though only six are necessary
to handle the plane, and In case of
necessity 1t would be possible to dis
pense with one of the pilots, making
crew of five men. Each man has his
assigned duties: besides the pilot who
manages the aircraft. there are two
gunners and two observers. Thirty.
seven millimeters One-and-a- half
inch guns equip the machine for war
1t can rush through the air at the rate
of eighty miles an hour.
Il
A Zeppelin is far more expensive
than the new triplane to build and to
fit with armament. The Zeppelin can
boast of no advantage that the tri-
plane lacks. They both have high car
rying power. great speed, stability and
endurance. The triplane has fewer spots
susceptible to fatal injuries. This lat
ter is important, and gives the French
triplane the decided advantage.
The triplane has been severely test
ed, has proved it's mettle. and has left
for service at the front. 1t Is a beau
tiful aircraft, its long lines giving grace,
style and an enviable lightness; 1t Is
in no way unwieldy. The colors of
France are painted on the underside of
the planes and on the tail. and the rest
of the machine is pure white
The French believe that the triplane
opens another phase for war in the
air, and that by means of triplane
squadron the enemy could be more
quickly vanquished than by powerful
artillery.
The triplane has cousin in the new
aerial destroyer, a biplane measuring,
from the tip of it's second plane to the
ground. seven feet; it's spread of wing
is twenty-one feet The driver of the
new destroyer is an exceptionally busy
man, for it is necessary for him to per-
form not alone the duties of driver,
but those of pilot, observer and ma
chine gun operator The driver can
safely and sanely operate the destroyer
without employing his hands. This, of
course is d tremendous advantage, for
his hands are in no way tied, and he is
quite free to use them in other ways.
The Frenchmen who drive these new
planes are keen of eye and young in
years They are men who have served

6NHE French intellect has ever been
nimble, keen, brilliant. French
genius seldom flags; it is usually
alert and responsive.
Not more than six years ago there
was some superficial talk in regard TO
utiI.zing aeroplanes for practical mill
tary purposes. But six years ago the
art of aviation was an infant in arms
and by far the greater per cent of the
people ridiculed it. Indeed, there were
many educated gentlemen who con-
sidered the aviation craze a mere fad
which would command a brief hour
only to traverse the road of all other
fads, which leads to complete oblivion.
Even as fad it was popular. not with
the general public, but with the scat
tered groups of men who composed the
"birdmen" of the world, and whom
more than few people mentally pig
eon-holed as Unbalanced"
The aeroplane was born in America,
but has been developed considerably by
the French They were wonderfully
quick to sense the rich possibilities in
aviation. Today they have brought the
aeroplane to the highest point of per-
lection that now exists. AS military
venture the French have entire faith in
it's perfect fitness to cope successfully
with military demands. They advocate
aero squadrons, and they claim that an
air feet is strong in proportion to the
number of its machines.
At the present time their factorie s
are constructing five aeroplanes a day.
These planes are punched in tens. TWEEN
ties. even more, one and two hundred,
to be transported to the Caucasus,
Mesopotamia, the Dardanelles and 9TH
err sections in the war zone where they
are most needed.
The largest of French aeroplanes is
their new triplane, which has just been
completed and tested. France has the
distinction of being the first of the ma
tons to produce a triplane. This, their
first, is of mammoth size. 1t has a
spread of wing measuring seventy feet.
It's three planes. which are placed one
above the other, measure twenty feet
in height.
This machine has high carrying

desired. A tale is told of one of these
aerial destroyers rising 5000 feet
straight into the air in forty seconds,
and in its ascent it swerved but slight
ly from the perpendicular.
Wireless is the French mode of sig
Mailing. They are expending their en-
ergy at present in endeavoring to pro-
duce a more efficient motor and to
turn out a muller for silencing the
anproachinc aeroplanes can be detect
ed readily by the unmistakable con-
fusion of their motors clamor 1t is
highly desirable on the part of bellig-
erents to discover some means by
which this deafeninS noise Is decreased
as much as possible.
