THE GERMAN Army
Especial TO The August

Posen, via Berlin and London
Field Marshal Won Hindenbergs army
took Lowicz, Russian Poland, defeat
ing the Russian right wing after heavy
fighting for several days.
Thc capture Of the city compelled
the further retirement OF the Russian
lines, which have lost "a kilometers
(21 miles) since the evacuation Of
Lods The lines are now scarcely 40
kilometers from Warsaw.
The German pursuit is proceeding
successfully along the whole front, but
the Russians are offering a firm re.
sistance in positions which were pre-.
viously fortified in preparation for de.
feat.
The resistance of the Russians has
by no means been fully broken, but
their losses in the most recent battles
have been exceedingly heavy.
Field Marshal Won Hlndenberg says
that the Russian losses since Novem.
ber l3, including 100000 prisoners.
have been enormous.
The opinion is expressed here that
the Russians probably will be unable
to resume offensive operations, but
that they still form a powerful army
and that there is yet much to be done
before the Germans can establish win
ter quarters at Warsaw.

WILSON AND NATIONAL DEFENSE.

As shown by his communications to congress
his speeches. his letters to heads of appropriate
dcpartmentS--a of his public utterances on the
question - President Wilson'S record the
national defense question is clear and consistent
His letters to the and navy secretaries asking
them to assemble facts on the subject preparatory
to a conference with him. Indicate deviation
from his former policy. although circumstances
had arisen which might have justified change in
his attitude Therefore it is matter of no ordi-
nary significance that seeming crisis in the inter
national affairs of the country did not, apparently
affect in the slightest his general position with
regard to preparedness.
He stands unequivocally for national defense
but not for national defense in its emotional and
offensive phases. The object of the United States
is to restore and preserve the peace, not to per-
pet,late dscord The object of the United States
in putting on the armor of defense is not to eXalt
and glorify mitarism. but rather, to strengthen
itself for the incubation and encouragement of
that international friendness which can render
militarism obsolete.
Under President Wilson's administration there
is every reason to believe the United States will
not be moved by anything in the nature of ''war
spirit" There will be no hysterical bond issues
for the creation of war navies or war armies. NO
half billion will Immediately be set aside for the
purpose of showing the world how very military
and how very silly-a great democracy can be
when it forgets ITSELF its purposes, its ideals.
The indications at present all point to very
sharp departure from the spectacular in this whole
national defense campaign and to a return to the
sensible and practical. 1t is encouraging to learn
that instead of recommending to congress the
issue of bonds or the imposition of new taxes to
meet the cost of national defense, the president
intends to show that body how it can economic
sufficiently to permit reasonable expenditures for
the purpose to be drawn from the regular reve-
nues. Such policy will, for many, take the
glamour out of national defense. 1t will prevent
lavish expenditures. 1t will cut off reckless APP
preparations 1t will turn the spectacular into the
commonplace But the defenses of the country
will not be hazarded by such course.

A SAMPLE OF WAR WITH MEXICO.

People who talk light -heartedly Of armed inter-
vention in Mexico picture an American army
marching in triumph from Vera Cruz and ending
the campaign at one stroke. They ignore the
character of the country and the character of the
people to be dealt with. To conquer Mexico and
restore it to order after occupation by the United
States would mean that it must be garrisoned
from end to end and policed and patroed at every
point
Anyone who wants war with Mexico can get
today on the Texas border fair sample OF what
it would be- Only, instead of being confined to
few counties along the Rio Grande, the same con-
ditions would be met throughout the entire $780,,
600 square miles of Mexico, and the United States
would have to face guerrilla war over an i'm
territory for years to come, in which, at the
hands of the Mexican bandits non-combatants
and civilians would have no rights and be treated
with no more mercy than these bandits are show
ing today in their raids along the Rio Grande.
Both former Secretary of State Bryan and
former President Taft and the newspapers and
people of the United States as we'll indorse the
act of President Wilson in asking Austria to
recall it's ambassador to the United States, become
persona non grata here because Of his admitted
efforts to organize nationwide strike of his
countrymen in munition plants with the avowed
purpose of preventing these concerns from ship
ping their products to the Allies Dumba sought
to start internal troubles for this nation, sought
deliberately to violate its neutrality in the present
trying international situation and having done so,
was naughty enough to declare he had the right to
act in such manner if he desired Even the Aus
trian newspapers in this country have denounced
him, He has outserved his usefulness and
should GO
