This phrase, so mouth filling, now
being banded back and forth in the
talk OF peace possibilities, requires
analysis. In the vernacular of the
day, what do you mean, freedom of
the seasY"
What America and other neutrals
mean by it is plain enough. They
mean by II freedom from unlawful in
terference with the rights of neutrals
on the high seas, whether by German
submarines or British orders In
council What Germany may mean by
IL is another question. She may mean
as County Reventlows articles indi
cate, the abdication of British naval
supremacy. Agreement on, accepting
the neutral Interpretation of freedom
of the seas Is not impossible or inn
probable. But that Great Britain
short of actual compulsion, will
abandon her naval supremacy is not to
be imagined That and her financial
power have been her contributions to
the Entente to which she has so far
contributed comparatively little mill
tary assistance. ao4
Against the German complaint OF
British militarism ruling the SEA,
Britain of course contrasts German
mlitarism dominating Europe. No
agreement is probable that will not
take in both. London insists the allies
are not making peace offers. The
agreement not to make a separate
peace requires joint action, of which
there has been no indication. Hopes
of an early peace seem premature, but
the fact that tentative terms are be-
ing discussed augufs well. There are
some points formerly considered hope
less that are now regarded as possible,
the restoration of Belgium, for in
stance. There is an end to blatancy
about crushing the enemy and grow
ing realization of the common peril in
continuing the struggle to exhaustion.

TIME annual freshman crop of
this country is now about ready
for picking
Like oranges and other tropical
fruit, freshmen are picked when they
are green. One hundred thousand
young men will enter the colleges OF
the land this fall and very few Of
them will know enough to refrain
from buying season tickets for
chapel when requested to do so by
polite sophomores.
They will apply to the janitor for
enrolment in his Greek classes and
will try to. hpy brides for Latin
ponies and will perform many other
quaint and amusing tricks. 1t IS
.pitiful to think that young men
brought up in tender families should
know so little. However it is waste
OF time to drop tears over the ignor-
ance of the freshman. In year he will
be a sophomore, and then he will
know more than Aristotle did.
Freshmen will come to college this
fall from magnificent high schools
and will know so much that isn't re-

peculiar pants and shoes which bulge

their own feet when addressing
young women and will swallow their

CONSUMPTION IN BRITAIN.

The British cabinet has been indis-
posed to introduce conscription among
the people for army service, because
the policy there has always heretofore
been to rely upon voluntary enlist
ments Such had been the course with
us until that stage of the Civil war
when men had to be drafted into the
prmy or allow the cause of the Union

form of government implies voluntary
military service, and experience with
us shows that while this holds good.
Il is only up to certain point, The
same obstacle is now confronting
Great Britain With the idea OF over
coming or getting around it, the Eng
llsn cabinet is understood TO be con-
sidering a modified method of prae-
teal conscription which was observed
in the United States in the SOS. 1t
is that of requiring each locality in the
l-ingdom to furnish specified num-
Der of men for the army. This would
be a compromise between voluntary
and involuntary service.

OUR NEED OF DYEsTuFFs.

The fabrics manufacturers in this
country are feeling seriously the need
of dyestnffs. 1t was thought for a
While after the beginning of the for
cign war that the opportunity to build
up dye manufactures which came to
the United States in this way would
be eagerly seized, but this has not
happened to an extent sufficient to
relieve the situation. Possibly there
has not been time enough. Our
manufacturers relied wholly upon
Germany for dyes, Importations
ceased with the beginning of war.
Spectators promptly Jumped into the
domestic market and are said to have
entirely cornered the visible supply.
Moreover home dye manufacturers
have been handicapped in obtaining
benzol and the other necessary raw
materials by the fact that these are
also required in the manufacture of
ammunition. which has consumed i'm
mense quantities. Furthermore, the
logwood and other vegetable colors
which were to contribute largely to
local industries have proved unsatis-
factory becaase impermanent, The
Master Dyers association OF Philadel
phia have taken cognizance of the
problem which home manufacturers
are ,achF. and predict that within the
next few weeks there will be a short
age in all eolors.
The only solution perceptible through
longrange telescope is through
termination of the war, or relaxation
by Great Britain of her blockade suf-
ficiently to let through enough German
dye to relieve the tension on Ameri-
can manufacturers. The federal de-
partment of commerce has given
public notice of its intention to take
up investigation of every phase of the
chemical industry. including the dye
stuffs situation, with the purpose of
ascertaining how the peeds of the
country with respect to these things
may be met. While this is gratifying
as future augury, it is Of no value
as a present remedy.

Health Talks
The Control Of Diabetes
BY WILLIAM BRADY, MD.

THERE is some good scientific
ground for the belief that dia-
betes Is not specific disease In
itself, but functional disturbance
due TO certain alterations of the In
ternal secretions.
Until very recently, the best treat
ment for the diabetic individual has
been a diet containing quantities OF
carbohydrates determined by tests
Of the patients tolerance for these
foods. Certainly no drug or combina-
tion of drugs controls the glycosuria.
And glycosuria is rather of minor
Importance, as compared with aceto-
nuria, for the accumulation OF
acetone bodies in the blood is what
produces serious or fatal coma. The
way to remove acetone bodies from
the blood is to remove fat from the
diet. From fat comes the "acidosis'
which is so much feared in diabetes.
DR.. John r. Williams has accom-
plished some remarkable things in
the study of diabetes. He has shown
that in practically all cases, no mat
ter how chronic or what the patients
age, it is possible to clear up the
glycosuria and place the patient in
good physical condition-by giving
the patient or his attendant lessons in
chemistry. In other words. Williams
finds that most diabetic patients can
be taught the fuel value (caloric
content) OF all ordinary foods and
instructed how to choose a menu
which will furnish adequate food and
yet not over-feed, that is to say, not
produce acidosis and harmful results.
1t requires usually three or four
days to free the urine from sugar, by
means of fasts, saline cathartics and
rest. After that, 1t is simply case
of teaching chemistry. AS soon as
the patient is well enough versed in
selecting a diet of sufficient caloric
value to meet his normal needs, the
patient may go home and live in
comfort.
