Keep the Defence Movement Out
of Politics.
the Editor OF The Tribune.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Is it not unfortunate that so vital an
issue as the national defence movement
should already have become a matter of
dissenson among its exponents? Here are
designations announced from the American
Defense Society, because it is accused Of
being partisan; there is a split in the Ma
tional Security League. and now comes the
charge that the Navy League was founded al
a luncheon by the munition manufacturing
group, dominated by Wall Street bankers, and
that the $500, 900 to be expended will go
right into the pockets Of those who so warmly
advocate in public the expenditure of such
huge sums of money.
Why cannot this matter be left entirely in
the hands OF the representatives OF the peo-
pie? Congress, il seems TO me, can take care
of this subject better than political agtators
and manufacturers of ammunition. Cannot
you advocate this course? J. (. F.

Courtesy and Equal Suffrage.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: | shall not attempt to answer "D.
V D." However, Helen McCallum, if she
could be convinced, would, l am sure, be a
sincere helper.
| admit freely that also hold precious all
the small courtesies which are due TO woman.
But ! do not think that equal franchise
would deprive her Of them. As a case in
point, may mention that both my husband
and believe in woman suffrage. and he is
just as courteous as if he regarded himself
as my master. am also quite as comfort
able and happy as could ever hope to be
but when / stand out for equal franchise it
is not merely personal question. 1t is for
the many women who are working or have
not such good husbands as mine (and Mrs.
McCalum's).
Since woman started agitating for the
vote. some sixty years ago, men, TO appease
her and TO evade the main issue, have passed
laws according to her suggestion. These
laws, pertaining to women's property rights.
women's and children's labor laws, educa-
ton. etc, doubtless meet with the approval
OF MIS-. McCalum. They were enacted large
" as a result of the suffrage movement, yet
not until yards Of red tape were unwound.
The very fact (which has been used as an
"anti" argument that woman is different
from man is an argument in favor of her
voting. Man votes for the best interest OF
his business. Woman should be allowed to
vote for the best interest of her home and
children.

Letters and kilograms began
pouring in on me at once. and now
after a year the number is still iu-
creasing."
Lissauer Is not a man of hate but
his verse expresses the real attitude
Of Germany toward her natural foe.
The poet has expressed no idle
sentiments. He has not allowed his
desire to write to dictate his words.
He has but crystalized the sentiment
of an entire nation-he has defined
for Germany its attitude against its
foe-he has centered this hate into
mass against England and his verse
has famed into fame the deep anger
the Germans have because of their
isolation. their lack of food and their
bitter trials during the war.
The conflict must end some time
and peace will be restored but in
generations to come the Hymn OF
Hate" will be read in the schools and
at the German firesldes and il ever
this bitter conflict is forgotten by
generations TO come this poem may
again kihdle the flame and between
Germany there shall always exist

Bile barrier-HATE.

Lissauer explains the inspiration
of his poem as follows:
In those first few weeks Of the

The deep hatred between Germany
and England has grown until an age
OF peace and generations of sober
mindedness will never remove.
In Germany the dislike of England
has been expressed in The Hymn OF
Hate" written by Ernest Lissauer.
and in England the wrath against
Germany finds expression in ridicule
Of the kaiser.
While there is natural enmity
between foes in battle. in the pres
ent great European conflict 1t only
takes the form of bitter. permanent
hatred In as far as the two great
leading nations are concerned.
The attitude of Germany against
her other foes is rather that of pity
than hatred. For all its evils. for all
its woes Germany blames England.
1t is predicted that this war viii
not come 10 an end until Germany
has punished England or has sacri-
dced its last soldier in the attempt
Germany's greatest bitterness for
her foe developed when England re-
leased Its savages on the troops of
the kaiser. From India and Africa
were gathered the widest of fight
ers, the primitive men who since the
creation of the world have advanced
but little out of the cave-men's class.
Their methods of offonse are almost
the same as those of the wild men
OF the Palaeolithic age OF more than
5000 years ago.

This man generally supposed out

ment of German bitterness. has new

speak the English language, has be-
cause of his quiet way Of living met
fewer travelling Englishmen than the
average German, and admits that
the closest personal connection with

was killed within the last year While
helping to defend Germany-not on
It's western, but on its eastern from

The Hymn of Hate became legend
airy within the first few weeks of its
existence. The story ran that 1t had

Tenth Bavarian infantry, known for
its recklessness and fury in assault,

press.

In fact the two nations have al

the poets of England have been sad

as failure when 1t comes TO writ

SMALL MOTOR FOR DENTISTS
Material Which Must at Present
Be Used.

An electric motor, even in small
sizes, is quite heavy for the power it
yields. For this reason dentists have
been using a motor mounted on a
bracket and connected by a flexible
shaft with the point of application of
power. Recently, however, a minia-
ture electric motor has been devised
for the dentists use which is so small
and weighs SO little that it may be
connected directly to the dental
chucks and used as hand tool, thus
doing away with the cumbersome uni
versal shaft. In place of the shaft a
light electric cord connects the motor
with a lamp socket. The motor is
one of the smallest ever made for
commercial use. It's weight is but five
and one-quarter ounces, and it is one
and three-quarter inches long by one
and one-quarter inches in diameter.
1t uses only II watts and operates
at a speed of $4,000 revolutions per
minute.

AUGUSTUS LYON, Terre Hill, Pa.
It is true that nature and woman's
work mas produced the grandest remedy
for woman's ills that the world has
ever known. From the roots and
herbs of the field, Lydia E. Pinkham,
forty years ago, gave to womankind
a remedy for their peculiar ills which
has proved more efficacious than any
other combination of drugs ever COM
pounded, and today Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is recognized
from coast to coast as the standard
remedy for woman's ills.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds Of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health many Of them openly state
over their own signatures that theyhave
regained their health by taking Lydia

and in some cases that it has saved them
from surgical operations.
