and found that in all the world the
only first-rate food producing coun-
try with an unusual supply was the
United States. There was a marvel
GUS crop here; but nearly all the
other wheat countries had short
crops, so that the worlds aggregate
for the year was not SO large as it
had been in at least one preceding
season.
The United States sold its sur
plus at very high figures and the
whole world set about increasing its
acreage Of wheat. The result is now
apparent; there will be a world
yield far beyond anything ever be-
fore known, and the American
farmers who sowed very big acre
age in confidence that they were
going to have another experience
with $1.50 wheat will be sadly dis.
appointed. However, there is every
reason to expect that good prices
will be secured. Without doubt the
general results of the year will be
highly satisfactory to agricultural
producers.

THE HORRIBLE BARBARlTY
OF 1T

Germany's defense of the Arabic
torpedoing illumipes the basic saw
agery of the submarine warfare.
The submarine had torpedoed the
Dunsley, after seeing her company
into the boats. Perfectly regular,
according to the German conception
of naval warfare. They might row
ashore, or some other ship might
come along and pick them up.
But might it?
The Dunsley's company being in
the boats, the submarine saw the
Arabic. It charges that the Arabic
turned toward it, and there has been
testimony that it did, with intention
to save the Dunsley survivors. Then
the submarine, fearing or pretend
ing to fear it was to be attacked,
fired on the Arabic.
Taking this story at face value,
just as the German foreign office
relates it-and there is absolutely no
testimony from the Arabic that JUS
titles the notion that the Arabic was
going to attack the submarine
where does German Submarine hu-
manity stand?
A ships company in small boats,
far from land, must be picked up or
lost. But if any ship comes along,
maneuvering as if it had any notion
of picking up the boats, it is to be
regarded as menacing the subma-
rine, and itself sunk.
The possibilities Of this proceed
ing constitute the complete disproof
Of German pretensions of humane
purpose. The submarine stands over
the passengers Of its first victim,
threatening to sink any rescue boat
that appears. The first victim might
thus be made, as it was in the Duns-
ley case, a bait to attract another.
Instead Of giving the Dunsley's sur
vivors a chance to be saved, the pos
; sible rescuer was herself sacrificed
1t may reasonably be assumed that
: a third rescuer would have been tor
J pedoed in like manner provided it
} appeared before the submarine felt
, under the necessity to sneak away
for safety.
Guarantees of the safety of crew
and passengers, which represent
, merely a threat to murder any res.
cuers that may happen along, have
J no very impressive force.

Fore Vice President-William Alden
Smith. Of Michigan.
Besides being a veteran Of the civil
war. with a splendid military record,
Mr.. Spooner Is recognized as one of
our foremost statesmen and lawyers.
1t is also well known that he resigned
the United States SenatoEshp (held by
him from Wisconsin for two terms) be-
cause of the insufficiency of the salary
and his unwillingness to add thereto by
accepting retaincrs from private parties
or concerns Of Chautauqua lecture en-
gagements.
1t will also be recalled that while
United States Senator Mr.. Spooncr took
a leading part in all the great uues-
tons which came before that body. and
that in legislative matters his susges-
lions were generally followed.
AS for William Alden Smith. It need
only be said he represents Americansm
in It's hest estate and most attractive
aspects. Coming up from the newSboy
ranks. he has through sheer ability and
industry reached the proud position he
now holds.

THE FINANCE OF THE WAR

It was inevitable that the United
States would become the dominant
financial and economic factor in the
war, SO far as neutral nations were
concerned. A nation at peace, pos
sessed Of fiscal relations everywhere,
and of twice the wealth of any other
similarly postured nation, could not
escape either the advantages or the
responsibilities of that relationship.
The balance of trade in our favor
mounts inevitably to fabulous fig
ures. Either that balance must be
discharged in cash or it must be
cared for by extension of present
and development of new relations
that recognize this country as the
premier economic figure in the
world.
BY sending their fiscal agents to
negotiate for terms on which they
can maintain their business inter-
course with us during these troub-
lous times the allied nations recog-
nize US as a community that can
adjust itself to conditions as they
arise; that is, as real factor in the
twentieth-century world. 1t is their
purpose to protect their credit here;
to keep our industries subject to
their call. It is our purpose to make
such adjustment as will keep these
industries employed, their products
moving, their future assured.
Such is the purpose of the finan.
cial conference which began in New
York-the new world-capital OF
finance-yesterday. It is the begin.
ming Of a new phase in the war, a
new era in the development of this
country.

hONORINd ThR DISTRICTS

Most cities cherish and respect
the memories Of their municipal Of
ficials who have contributed to their
progress. 1t falls to the lot of heads
of Washington's city government to
be forgotten about as soon as they
go out of Office.
Especially has Washingtn failed
in recognition Of the notable serv-
ices performed by many of its
mayors. Therefore the proposal tc
erect a memorial to Matthew Gault
Emery, the last of the city's mayors
who was in many other ways o1
great service to the city, will be
welcomed by the few who recall t..:e
history Of the city.

Courthouse Is Disgrace.

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
Your newspaper has generally been
forward and persistent in the advocacy
of all matters in the interest and for the
development of Washington City. In
this connection may call to your at
tention, as worthy of your best effort,
the need Of new court building. For
the CAPITAL of the nation the present
court house is disgrace. Even in the
small cities of the States there are
far superior buildings Take Baltimore
city with its s6.COo,ooO building; Mem
phis, Tenn. and even the small cities
such as Newark. n. j.. and the compar-
ison suggests want of proper public
spirit on the part Of Washington City.

CITY. COUNTRY, AND HEALTH

Two entirely separate studies
have recently shown, first, that the
death rate in rural New York is
higher than in the city; second, that
a group of 1000 high-class mechan.
les made no better showing of physi.
cal condition than 1000 clerks.
Open-air life is healthful, but its
advantages may be outweighed by
drinking water from an open we'll
by careless diet, by living in ma.
larial atmosphere or by too arduous
exertion. As for plumbing in rura
communities, too often there is nc
such thing. The free clinic, dental
surgical or medical, is not within
reach of the farmer. Then, as the
health department remarks, there il
larger proportion of middle-agec
persons in the country.
The Life Extension Institute ex
amined 1000 clerks in New Yorl
city and 1000 mechanics in an auto
mobile factory in Detroit. 1t says:
The high-grade industrial worker
shows about the same degree of i'm
pairment as the sedentary clerk.
The chief difference lies in
physique. The industrial worker
tends to overfeeding and over
weight; the clerk more to UNDER
feeding and light weight.
The mechanics suffer more from
lung affections, due to mineral dust

THE CODE OF HONOR,

Whether it is to be the princeton
honor SYSTEM" or called by some
other name, it is welcome news that
an effort is to be made to create q
sentiment against the practices that
recently have brought the United
States Naval Academy into unpleas-
ant notoriety.
The President knows enough about
the college boy to realize that the
first step to check "cribbing" does
not involve the passing Of rules and
regulations, but the creation Of q
sentiment against it among the stu
dent body.
During the inquiry into the "goug-
ing" charges the public may have
gotten an exaggerated impression Of
the culpability of the Naval Acad-
emy student. 1t has been said, on
reliable authority, that "gouging''
was winked at, and it was consider
ed generally method by which one
might pass examinations, SO long as
he did not seek honors by that route.
Even such a standard exhibits a
certain code of honor, though it may
not be of the highest sort. But the
rigorous observance among students
of the unwritten codes that have
existed at the Academy points to
the possibility of an accession to a
higher standard. Tact, not force
now is needed to help the Academy
recover from the unsavory disclos-
ures of the recent investigations.

THE YEARS BIO CROPS

A careful estimate credits the
country with raising 6O0,000,0OO
bushels more of various grains this
year than it did last. Wheat, it is
promised, will pass the billion-b bushel
mark; that is, it will produce rather
more than 1OO,00O,OOO bushels in ex-
cess of last years record crop. Corn
is estimated at trifle under three
billions of bushels, which does not
quite equal the previous record. The
year would have produced record
making corn crop but for the fact
that weather conditions, particularly
in the mid Western corn States,
have been very generally bad.
Nature is doing her share this
year toward making up for the
wastes of the world war. Our own
country will have some 100000, 900
bushels of wheat to sell abroad, if
the rest of the world wants it, which
is far and away the largest surplus
we have ever had. But seemingly
all the wheat exporting countries
aside from Russia have also in
creased their output. Not much is
known about the Russian situation
save that there has been a consider
able surplus carried over from last
year; probably not SO large an
amount, however, as is commonly
supposed.
Moreover, the Russian military
reverses are certain to demoralize
the business of gathering the crop
in that country. 1t may be regard
ed as very uncertain, therefore
whether the opening of the Darda.
nelles, if it should take place, would
have so much effect as has been an.
ticipated for'it. On the other hand
India, Australia, and Canada have
largely increased their wheat yields
and Argentina is expected to do the
same.

WHO OUGHT TO 90 NExT9

Aian ambassador, is to be recalled
from this country, at Washington's
instance, on the polite theory that,
while Austria and America are still
as good friends as ever, DR.. Dumba,
as the agent of his principal, has
done things he could not do con-
sistently with that friendship be-
tween the two nations. DR.. Dumba
has indicated that he did nothing Of
the sort; that he had authorization
of his government for whatever he
did. There is rather a general feel
ing that he is correct.
If DR.. Dumba in fact merely has
been guilty Of getting caught, then
he ought not to be the sacrifice. The
logical procedure would be a sever
ance Of diplomatic relations with the
government that wanted him to do
the things he has done.
Associated with DR.. Dumba in his
plottings against industrial peace
and national solidarity in this coun-
try was Captain Won Papen, military
attache of the German embassy.
Won Papen sent improper communi-
cations by the same improper mes
senger that was used by Dumba.
There is documentary evidence that
he was part and parcel of the same
conspiracy. Therefore if Dumba
must be sacrificed to the fiction OF
misrepresenting his government Won
Papen should go along with him.
Following the same reasoning q
step further, we reach the German
embassy itself. Count Won Bern.
storff, as ambassador of Germany
was the immediate superior and
chief of Won Papen. If Won Paper
was guilty of impropriety in hi:
dealings with Dumba his improprie
ties gave color also to the conduct
of his chief. Either his chief wa!
so incompetent that he permitted
his subordinate to misrepresent hin
or else he was tainted by the i'm
propriety Of that subordinate's acts
Which is it?
1t makes little difference which
y5ay it be decided. If the German
ambassador was unable to contro
his subordinates and keep them ou
Ct mischief he is an improper per
son to be continued as agent of hi
government. here; he is a menace, a
Dr.. Dumba became, to the amicabl
relations between the two countries
Washington is wondering whethe
there will not be more shifts in tn
diplomatic representation of tn
Teutonic countries. 1t is very ap
parent that there ought to be.
Brushing aside the polite fictions
it is apparent that if Dumba wa
doing what his government wante'
him to do, the government, no
Dumba, is the real offender. In tina
case diplomatic relations with tina
government should no longer b
possible. And following the sam
inexorable logic, if the German gov
ernment was sympathetic and i
union with these same improprie
ties, then the need Of the hour |
that diplomatic relations with tn
Berlin government itself be con
Cluded.
