MIR. Redfield's Theories.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Tho Wars Effect on Foreign Com
petition" by Secretary Redfeld. have just
finished reading the article with the fore
going heading in to-day's Tribune and an
amazed al the intricacies into which theories
lead even so intellectual n writer as Mr. Red
field Having put their free trade theory into
practice, the present administration and Con
gress must work out numerous other theories
to cover up the crime. They must whip the
devil around the stump
THE New York Times" in an editorial re
Gently asserted that the United States was
the dearest market in the world. What makes
II so? Labor conditions largely. with no lacl
of agitators, politicians and philanthropists
70 plead the cause of labor; labor receives
the highest wages and works the fewest hours
in return.
Street corner orators and plutocratic vel
low newspapers tell us money is king here;
that our bloatcd capitalists rule us. Non
sense, Labor rules us with an iron rod, held
tLreateningly over our heads from dawn til
dewy eve and back again. Any manufact
urer of any prominence in our fair land has
his sleep disturbed by the nightmare of labor
troubles and he wipes the cold sweat from
his forehead he gasps, what will they de
mand next?"
We don't dare make law without consult
ing the labor vote. Originally we had pro
tectiye tariff, and it protected labor so wei
that from time 10 time individual labornl
men saved up enough to start new industries
and employ more labor We took the labor
ing man from every country on earth anc
gave him chance to earn a better living
than he could at home and let him do as he
pleased. Incidentally, the United States
grew enormously rich, the wonder of the
world. II was fenced in with protective
tariff fence TO keep out the wild horses OF
unfair competition, and our labor was armed
not for aggression, but for defence.
But the Wilson theorists and amateurs go'
chance at us. Protection was all wrong, Sc
with two whoops and a hurrah they broke
down the fence, because il would be so much
nicer for us TO club the wild horses 70 keer
them out than 20 keep the fence up, and in
cdentally some of our shameless million
aires might get trampled on. The fence haC
been down only short time, but already the
wild horses were trampling not our million
aires. but our small manufacturers and THEN
employees, when, presto! came the war.
And when the war is over?
Our honored Secretary Redfeld says get {
lot of new tangled clubs and 90 at the hungry
horde To put the fence back would be too
simple

The final curtain falls with the country 60
ing to war-less blithely this time against

order to ram home the lesson of the futillty
Of war the author wan.only sacrifices truth
and sincerity. For where was there war
ever waeed when enemies became friends and
friends enemies before the very ink on the
treaty could have been dry? To show the
futility of war is scarcely as simple a task
as that undertaken by Mr.. Galsworthy in his
play on capital ard labor. There one saw IN

Greece and Belgium.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: The German Foreign Minister Won
Jagow's ebullitions in drawing his paralIel
het,yeen Belgium's invasion By Germany and
the nassing of the Allies troops through
Greece present an attempt at monumen'hl
mind befuddling, in which art German dip!o-
macy is proving so skilful an adept 1t WouId
REQUIRE topsy-turvy imaginative faculty 70
make the German version fl the real case
II saw Belgium and France had been allies
and if Great Britain had threatened 70 attack
France first and to invade Belgium next ana
if. lastly, Germany had insisted on having
her military forces cross Belgium IN order
20 aid France against the threatened British
invasion. a situation would then have been
created parallel 10 that now existing III lhe
Balkans between the Central Powers and Bull
garia. on the one hand. and Greece, Serbia
and the Allies, on the other. How, IN the
name of common sense. Won Jagow pretendS
to make the world believe that the Aiiies
present action with respect TO Greece dupH-
Gates Germanys conduct toward Belgium
passes all intelligent understanding.
OF course, Greece has gone through the
farce of protesting" while welcoming the
landing Of the Allies troops. The eagerness'
indeed with which Won Jagow emphasizes the
fact Of this protest" strongly arouses sus-
picion that this empty formality was brought
about through German diplomatic scheming
and intriguing with the pro-German court at
Athens for the very purpose of furnishing
Won Jagow with Himsy pretext for his latest
word jugglery. ADAM ROSENBERG.

Our Future Sovereign.
tor of The Tribune.

\
/ Sir: at is Idle TO speculate" says The
Tribune. "as 70 the condition of Allied cour-
age and will, but if these endure, German de
feat and peace made by Germanys con-
ouerors can hardly be postponed beyond the
end Of 1916"
The sentiment certainly deserves the un-
qualified approval of every liberty loving
American. But, unfortunately, the editorial
from which il is drawn does not represent
I the fact.
Superiority Of numbers and vast pre-
ponderance of wealtha very large por-
ton Of which has been, and is being. con
tributed by the American people not
decide the issue Of the most horrible war
recorded in the annals of history. The
ascription TO the sovereign by the transla-
tors of the King James Version (lGll) OF
the Bible reads: Great and manifold were
the blessings, most dread Sovereign. which
Almighty God, the Father Of all mercies, be-
slowed upon Us, the people Of England, when
hrst He sent Your Majesty's ROYAL Person to
rule ard reign over as" etc.
Before the birds nest again in the trees
along the banks of the blue Danube in the
spring Of 1916 Kaiser Wilhelm will be the
most dread sovereign" paling the great
achievements Ct Alexander the Great and
the knees Of all tho countries of the earth
will tremble at the tread Of the world -domi-
mating Emperor Of the Tcutons. It is not a
question of courage, numbers or wealth
Neither will the outcome be due 20 the
mastery marcn of the Teutons through Ser
bia 10 Constantinople, the cooperation OF
Bulgaria. the assaults of Rumania, nor to
the fact that Greece may, in suppliance, bend
It's knees to the fierce Turk, The interven-
ton at this late hour Of the great Western
Republic cannot change it! The pouring out

at once cannot stem the tide of Teutonic vic
tory, The civilized world beholds with hor-
riblc amaZcmont the inevitable and speedy
triumph of the German autocracy that will
rcvolutionize the politics and change the geo
graphical lines Of the whole world!
The wish is said to be the father of the
thought. No matter how bitterly our judg-
ment antagonizes our wishes or will, we must
recognize the terrible truth. Some may ask,
Are not the Germans a civilized people,
What has that 10 do with the blind and un-
reasoning absolutism Of the autocracy that
rules the Germans? True, the Germans have
been a noble and intelligent people, perme-
atcd b. the volatile influences resultant from
Christian civilization; this cannot negate
an unbridlcd imperial absolutism. Such an
aycrment is TO deny empirical records of his
tory.
This dread change without attempting an
analysis of its causes-wil dangerously af-
feet the welfare of our great American Re-
public and will entail an overwhelming
financial loss to our people. VIII it ulti-
mately be better for the world If so, it is
quite impossible to perceive the reasons
therefor. We may as well reconcile ourselves

The Small Pacifist Nation.

Sir; We are busy discussing whether Eng

is as unrighteous as Germany in violating
the neutrality of Belgium. You may decide
il as you please. But TO many Of US the out
standing fact about the whole matter is this:
small nation can take a pacifst attitude

out loss Of honor. Greece has done il land

able"). Belgium could have done il II she

COOPERATION IN
POTATO GROWING
Prof. Bolley Plans to Unite Farm
ers of State in Interest of
Better Crops.

Professor Fl. l.! Bolley, in his gen.
cral correspondence, has sent Il letter
to a number Of farmers residing in
the chief potato growing districts. we
quote the letter, as perhaps there may
be a large number of our readers in
terested in tn potato work and would
like to have their names on the list
of those who are getting together for
a more closely cooperative study OF
the potato crop. particularly relative
to the best methods Of selecting var
ieties suitable for the market and
proper steps to take relative to con-
troll of diseases ranging from a prop
err storage, etc.
The letter follows:
Growing for Market.
At a late meeting Of the Griffin
Growers convention at Fargo, as Sec
rotary of the North Dakota Improved
Seed Growers association, | was re-
quested and promised to ascertain the
names and addresses Of all those par
ties possible who are interested in
growing potatoes for market purposes,
particularly for the purpose of ship
ping in carload lots, with a view Of
bringing those who are in this line of
work into association with each other
that they may eventually be able to
help each other form local growers
associations to aid themselves in prop
erly growing for and shipping to the
general potato market. If You are in
terested in growing potatoes, kindly
write me your lame and address,
about how many and what kind you
grow. .1' 'i..t .'H ~
Association for Shipping.
Also is there a potato elevator or
warehouse at your shipping point?
Have you a local association for ship
ping? Send me a list of all of the
farmers in your neighborhood who are
particularly interested in growing po-
tatoes for shipping purposes.
This list. when gotten together, will
be placed in the hands Of the gneral
committee of potato growers who will
later arrange to call together those
who are interested and possibly there
will be a large general meeting at
some n Of the regular annual con
ventionS.

The Fort Yates commercial club,
al a recent meeting decided to ar

This is to be done regardless Of any
attempt at judging Sitting Bulls justi-
fication or non-justitication in his
resistance to the authority of the Unit
ed States government, but solely on
account of his historic character and
because of the fact that his name is
so widely known. The decoration of
the grave has a purely historic signi-

MADE 4 RECORD. =.
DIDN'T KNOW It

Chicago, May l3.-Urban Red Fa-
Der, White SoX pitcher, probably es-
tablished a worlds record at Comis-
key park yesterday when he defeated
the Washington team, though it is
hardly likely that he or any one in
the park noticed it. 1t was discover
ed, however, by Frank Saffall, a boy
away off in Washington, D. c., and
the boy took accession to telegraph
his discovery 10 Chicago last night.
According to the Washington boy,
Faber. pitched only sixty7seven balls
during the whole game. The boy is
in a position to know because he was
operating an electric score board in
Washington, which recorded all the
balls and strikes and showed exactly
what every batter did. His record
showed that Faber pitched fifty
strikes and seventeen balls during
the game. In that record he counts
as strikes any ball which was hit by
the batter. The Washington boy
claims that Faber's record of sixty
seven is five less than the record es-
tablished by Christy Mathewson sew
eral years ago.
In the third aid fifth innings Fa-
Der retired six men on six pitched
balls, each ma hitting the first bali
for al out. Following is the COM
