AEROPLANES AGAINST SUB
MARINES.

The sinking Of a submarine by an
aeroplane, as reported from Berlin,
is the first recorded example of a new
form of warfare which may soon be-
come as familiar as aeroplane raids
or submarine torpedo attacks. While
this form of fighting is yet undevel-
oped. some military experts declare
that it gives promise of more effective
protection against submarines than
any other method yet suggested.
The under-sea boat, it must be re-
membered, cannot remain hidden
from the aeroplane as it can from
surface lighting craft. The higher
you rise in the air. the deeper you can
see into the water. Thus aviators
have exceptional facilities for spying
out submarines 1t is possible that a
few hundred scouting planes, fitted
with hulls so they could alight safely
on the water in emergency, would be
able in a short time to locate nearly
all the German U-boats operating
around the British Isles.
That espionage service alone would
be highly important. even if il availed
only 10 warn merchantmen, and bring
destroyers to chase the submarines.
But it is said that if the air craft were
also provided with bombs specially
adapted TO penetrate the water easily
and strike vessels beneath the sur
face, the submarines might be driven
from the trade routes.
II is possible that the British admir-
atty is actually preparing such air
craft and such bombs. If it is. the sea
warfare may at any time take a new
and startling turn.

\ SHIP SUBSIDY.

Indianapolis NEWS.
Endorsement of a ship subsidy by
the chamber of commerce of the
United States has not made much of
an impression on the country. The
American people for years have been
against "A policy of special aid for the
shipping interests, and they are not
likely 10 change their minds readily.
The merchant marine question re-
mains one of the most important md
every month increases the demand for
some sort of answer. The proposed
establishment of a government owned
line was vigorously denounced in con-
gress and out and has, in substance,
been rejected by the membership OF
the national chamber. But swinging
to the other extreme, this OrganlZa-
ton goes on record in favor of sub
sidy. 1t is to be assumed that the
vote was cast in good faith, and that
the figures actually represent the lean
ings of those who control the various
bodies.
A little thought and inquiry Will
probably convince some of those who
support the subvention idea that such
a plan is as impracticable as IL Is un-
American. This country for years has
opposed a ship subsidy. The slight
deviation from an established rule
failed TO bring prosperity 10 the reclp-
tents and at the same time the grants
thus authorized seriously burdened
the government. The United States
has never adopted ship subsidy as a
policy and il is not likely, under the
circumstances, TO be hurried into
change. If government ownership
was unpopular. ship subsidy would
prove more so. The futility of the
subsidy as a means TO revive snip
ping is generally recognized. once
embarked with subsidized merchant
marine, this country would soon ma
itself in difficulties more serious than
those encountered when even the nee
essary ships are lacking. Before SUP
sidy is Endorsed it would be well 10
note where it would lead US.

was the same as that set forth NOR

Sen. Stone on the goth Of last Jan
uary. in which he said:
III any German citizens, parti-
sans OF Germany and Austria
Hungary, feel that this admins
tration is acting in a way in
furious TO the cause of those
countries. this feeling results from
the fact that on the high seas
the German and Austro- Hungary
naval power is thus far inferior
TO the British. 1t is the business
of a belligerent operating on the
high seas, not the duty of a neu-
trail TO prevent contra band from
reaching the enemy.
Those in this country who SYM

that some obligation rests upon

ance of it's neutral duty. TO pre-
vent all trade in contraband and

Owing 10 Mr.. Bryan's wide influence
and the Importance of the principle
involved. the public will be glad to
learn that the former secretary OF
state has not really changed his mind
but rather was placed in a false posi-
ton at the New York meeting by un-
scrupulous Americans, who
are not Americans but Germans. and
care little how much they compro-
mise either America or its citizens.

THE QUAKE THAT QUAKED.

Imperial valley, that little section
Of country endowed so richly by ma
ture. had its canker spot, which has
been sapping its vitality, slowly but
surely eating into the very heart of
the prosperous community. This
canker spot was the hole of iniquity
across the line at Mexicah. The re-
sort of gamblers, thugs and society's
outcasts. it was growing every day into
the greatest menace Imperial valley
faced.

COLLEGE GIRLS CHARACTER.

Katherine B. Davis. commissioner
of correction Of New York city. says
that in her fifteen years experience in
handling female delinquents. she has
never found a college girl among
them"
II can be argued plausibly that the
college has little 20 do with it, that
college girls are a special social group.
carefully selected, and not likely to go
wrong whether they attend college or
not. They generally come from good
families and their characters pre-
sumably have been shaped in an envir-
onment Of sound morals and whole
some thrift.
But of course that isn't the whole
story. Everybody who knows any
thing about colleges, and particular
ly women's colleges, knows that they
exert a powerful influence in building
character The girl enters college with
a set of morals ready-made for her
and blindly accepted; her four years
course is a thinking and building pro-
cess; she leaves with an intelligent &C
ceptance of principles that most young
women merely take for granted. She
has thought her way through things.
she knows why right is right and
wrong is wrong. Her character is es-
tablished on a far firmer foundation
than that Of her less cultivated sis
tiers
Added to this, she has gained intel
lectual interest and resources and as
sociations that lift her above temp
tations that come to the idle and shall
low minded. And in her equipment
for earning a living, she has a pow
erful economic bulwark against low
ering her moral standards.
II is much the same with male stu
Tents. When college man wanders
from the straight path. it is always
matter of surprise and reproach.
He should have known better" The
higher education, in spite of the "un-
settling effects" that pious folk used
TO fear. is recognized today as a potent
force for righteous living.
