ENGLAND AND CoNsCRIPTIoN

From the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Great Britain has never needed conscription
before, not even in its long and savage struggle
with Napoleon, although it practced form OF
conscrption in securing sailors for its fleet; and
an order by which every man of military age
may be called to the service will come like
shock to the British people; but 1t should not
be forgotten that even in this country, where
the conscription draft is even unpop-
ular, it had finally to be adopted during the
Civil War both by the United States and the
Confederacy, and in both instances 1t produced
disturbances and rioting. The draft riots in
New York of a most serious character
causing the loss of many lives and the destruc-
ton of much valuable property. 1t had been
found that volunteer enlistments and big boun-
ties would not furnish enough men to crush the
Confederacy. If a people as bitterly opposed TO
conscription as the Americans found the
draft necessary in the COS, the people OF Great
Britain will probably conclude that they must
make similar sacrifice in the present worlds
war. whore so much Is at stake.

PERILs OF NEUTRALs
To the Editor Of EveninD Ledger:

To the Editor Of Evening Ledger:
Sir-The world has been struck dumb with
the terrible calamity on the south coast OF Ire
land, and we all. OF course, threaten due VEN
geance on Germany. But 1t seems to me 1t Is
another case of locking the stable door after
the horse is out. 1t will take a smart man.
indeed to figure this terrible calamity out, Of
who was right and who was wrong.
Did the passengers think for one moment
that Germany was throwing bluff when she
sent the warning? There Is a blockade estab-
lished by Germany all around the English isle.
and when any vessel tries to break or go
through a blockade we all know what that
means. The Lusitania knew fully what she
was up against and took the chance, and in
consequence received a blockade runners fate.
America prays for peace, and yet will
take millions OF dollars worth OF contracts to
KIN our fellow men across the sea. Can we
blame Germany when she turns these weapons
on us? II we want to help the Allies let's do
1t right and not beat about the bush to do It
But let me say In closing, Germany is far from
whipped as yet. GERMAN-AMERICAN.

or the long battle lines in France, English

England trade continues much the same as

Lincoln met situation of a similar sort In
this country in the only way possible by
conscription. That is what the British Gov
intends to do. That there will be draft riots
is probable, but they must be faced. England
is fighting for her imperial existence Ger

Talking Peace Means Thinking Peace

TT is not expected that the International
Peace Conference at Lake Mohonk will
end the war; 1t is an unofficial and purely
voluntary gathering of men and women who
think that peace is better than strife
Some OF them are wiser than others. The
wise ones understand that war will not be
abolished by any arbitration treaties, or by
the Invention OF any weapons more deadly
than those now in use, or by any petitions TO
the Powers at war at the present time. They
Know that peace is state of mind brought
about by desire for Justice and willing
ness to make concessions in the interest OF
International harmony and human progress.
War viii continue so long as there remains
any considerable body OF men determined to
nave their own way. regardless OF the rights
OF others.
But talking peace does no harm. Indeed,
Il may do some good by encouraging the
habit of thinking about peace and about the
conditions on which it must be based.

Passing of the Mahoganr Bar

ON THE same day that the Chicago Dry
" Federation began a campaign to abolish
the 1000 saloons in the city a billiard table
company, which manufactures saloon fittings
as side line, announced that it had closed
down its bar furniture department and would
employ its cabinetmakers on billiard and
pool tables and talking machine cases.
The spread OF prohibition may not have de-
creased the consumption OF liquor, but it has
certainly decreased the number of saloons and
has reduced the demand for bar fittings The
money invested in mahogany counters and
ornately framed mirrors, such as adorn the
typical first-class saloon. might better be
spent on billiard tables TO be set up in places
where liquor is not sold or be used for buying
talking machines in cases that match the
finish Of the room in which they are to stand.
The company which is going out OF the sa-
loon-htting business has read the signs of
the times and interpreted them with rare

Patriotism That Stands for Something

| THERE is no lack Of patriotism in Amer
is almost as bad as no patriotism at ALL 1t
must translate itself into accomplishment.
The country needs that sort Of patriotism
now, a patriotism that will be evident not
only in times of excitement, but all the time
and which will manifest itself at the polls
and elsewhere in an insistent demand that
the United States shall be put in a con-
dtion of thorough preparedness against
armed attack.
Events in Europe have demonstrated that
there is no reliance to be placed on improb-
abilities. The things which were considered
the most improbable have been the very
things to become actual. There may not be
throne left in Europe when the war is
over. on the other hand, there may not be
a republic left. One thing Is certain, and
that is that our great wealth will stand In
vivid contrast to Europe's poverty. We can
not foretell what machinery of war may be
launched against u.s. We have seen how
easy 1t Is to find pretexts for wars.
1t behooves each patriot. therefore, to make
the national defense a point of real i'm
portance In his political policies, to insist
that the men he votes for will favor ade-
quate preparation and will support a def
mite program designed to assure us might
on sea and land commensurate with the
vast interests to be protected. We need
statesmen with n world vision, who can
take their minds off pork barrel" projects
and devote their energies to assuring the
stability of this nation in the affairs of
earth
Adequate preparation does not mean a
second-class navy. It means a first-class
navy homogeneous and complete in all it's
units, powerful enough to deter any enemy
from desiring to attack us and mighty
enough to assure the defeat Of such an en-
emy If he should in fact venture to move
against us

JETooDRoW WILSON is blessed with the
w enviable privilege OF learning how to be
grandfather and how to be President at
the same time. He has been President
about two years and he has acquired in that
time two grandchildren, apportloned among
the sexes with greater fairness and justice
than any political apportionment on record.
Opinions may differ as to the relative diff
hculty of his two tasks. but every one will
agree that learning how to be a grand.
5-ather is much more satisfactory occupa-
tion than learning how to fill any political
office in the gift OF the nation. Office comes
from the people, but grandchildren are the
