THIS COUNTRY WANTS NO MILITARY PARTY

Naturally the Oregonian attempts to make political
issue out of the Lstania affair 1t is not honest enough
politically to say what it knows to be true-that the
United States can do little except to protest against the
killing of our people, unless we wish to plunge INTO war,
and we doubt very much if the OregOnan would advise
that course The president undoubtedly knows that ne
will be criticised in anything that he does by the ultra
partisan papers of the OregOnan stripe just as Wash
ngtOn Lincoln and other national leaders were IN the
periods of great stress and responsibility through which
they passed and it will not him to from his
course or alter his sense Of duty The people OF America
will very largely follow the lead of the president because
he is thinking and acting calmly and setting an excellent
example for all who have the best interests OF the
nation at heart
The Oregonian takes the opportunity to plead for
larger army and navy-a big military establishment pat
termed after those of the European nations engaged
in deadly strife and probably the most direct cause o.
the war 1t fails however, to show how this socaIed
preparedness" would in the least benefit the United
States in the present crisis What could our batteshlps
90 to Germany but provide targets for the tOrpedOeS OF
her submarines just as EnglandS do? Where would our
great army if we had one strike blow which would be
effective at any European nation? AS for Defense if we
are forced into have the men, who would be the
best soldiers in the world in thirty days. the factories for
turning out the arms and munitions of war; and the re-
sources to feed and cOthe our armies indefinitely.
The United States should not be ambitious to base It's
greatness upon military establishment which would
burden our people with taxation and possibly at some
future time be used to Subvert the true aim OF popular
government and crcumScbe the liberties of the people

this nation ever be engaged at least so long as are
sensible enough as people to curb the advocates of
militarism, and keep our army and navy within the
proper bounds OF strength and effectiveness.

Lead is one of the first metals that would naturally be
associated with an increased consumption in time OF war;
and yet the exports of lead from the United States 10
Europe since the war began have not increased proper
ton to the increase in exports of zinc and some other
metals and the price Of lead instead of being enhanced
by the war actually sumped on October to the lowest
point reached in the last Is years These and other fact
are graphically presented in the advance statement OF the
production of lead in the United States in 1914 just issued
by the United States Geological Survey The total pro-
ducon of refined lead from both domestic and foreign
ores was 22 short tons compared with tons In
1913 The production of refined lead from domestic ores
was 512794 TONS an increase of 100916 tons over the
record figures reached in 1913 This increase was due
chiefly to gains in Missouri about $4,000 Ons in Idaho
40 900 tons and in Utah. $4,000 TONS Owing to the civil
war in Mexico the imports of Mexican ore for the last
few years have been much smaller than heretofore and
there was not enough foreign lead in the United States
to supply the demand Lead was consistently higher in
London in 1914 than in New York. and this together with
the scarcity of Mexican lead caused the large exports of
domestic lead
