There are 50 many plots and

utmost concern to the repub-
lie. They deal with national
safety at a trying time in the
worlds history; they deal with
pressing commercial problems
brought about by hOld-up tao
ties on the part of the shipping
trust.
1t would be reasonable to
expect emphatic support for
the president from all quar-
ters. Yet one class of tory
journals is busy already dis
tOrting facts so as to hamper
and heckle the government as
nuch as possible. The Ore
gonian this morning pictures
the defense program as haras-
sed by the tariff on one hand
and the bond problem for rails
| ing money on the other. 1t is
false picture. The tariff
has no connection with the sub
| ject of preparedness and the
! financial end will give nc
trouble whatever, because the
Panama canal bonds are al
ready authorized.
The real menace to the de-
tense program and to the
countrys prosperity arises from
| hyenalike tactics on the part OF
certain forces, among them al
ultra partisan, privilege serv-
ling press. This element OF the
press is so narrow it cannot
conceive of supporting any
program, however meritOriOus
advanced by a democratic ad
ministration. In addition sucf
papers hold a chronic antago
nism to any move seeking K
break the grip the foreigr
shipowners have upon the Am
erican producer and manufac
turer. Despite the fact those
shipowners are charging a.
much as wheat is worth to hau
liz to Europe the tory newspa
pers will shudder in horror a
any suggestion of relief fol

In this opposition to the ad
ministration's plan there i
peril because it may produc'
another filibuster in the sen
ate such as prevented the pas
sage of the ship purchase bill

cal conflict that has been wag-
ed in Germany over this issue.
President Wilson's diploma
tic victory marks the first de-
feat that the German military
autocracy has sustained at
home since the outset of the
war.
Most of the influential men,
bers of the German general
staff have been frankly in IA
vor of war with the United
States ever since the cOntrO-
versy over the sale of muniti-
ons became acute. Naturally
they ardently supported the
Tirpitz policy of submarine
warfare. From their point of
view, war with the United
States was eminently desira-
BILE. War, in their opinion,
would mean that the United
States government would have
to take over all the ammuniti-
on factories here in order to
equip an army. Six or eight
months would elapse before an
effective army would be ready.
In the mean time Great Brit
ain and France would be shut
off from their American sup
plies of ammunition, and the
military advantage to Ger
many would be tremendous.
With Great Britain, France
end Russia deprived of Ameri-
can munitions, the German
general staff believed that the
war could be won before a
formidable American army
could be sent to the trenches
lin France and Flanders. There
was nothing to fear from the
/ American navy, because the
superiority of the British and
French navies was already
overwhelming, and the situa-
ton in respect to sea power
could not be changed if all the
navies in the world were ad-
ded to those of the allies.
This theory was plausible
and it represented the major
ity judgment of the general
staff. Opposed to this, how
ever, were the chancellor, the
foreign minister and all the
great financial and industrial
elements of the empire. These
were willing to concede that
war with the United States
might work to the military ad.
vantage of Germany for the
time being by cutting off the
allies supply of ammunition
from this country. But they
also saw that war with the
United States would mean the
