The Way of ihe Aggressor
LFrom ColIIer's WeekIy.D

Nothing more illuminating has
been published upon the trend Of the
war than the French official review
which is appearing in installments in
the newspapers. Tho 9lear and lu-
cid summaries rise to the rank of lit
erature when the reviewer quotes
German diaries and letters taken
from captured and dead soldiers. u
innate German victory was at first
part of the consciousness of every
German soldier. "At the moment Of
the battle of the Marne,' says the
reviewer, "the first impression was
one Of failure of comprehension and
of stupor" But as the retreat con-
tinued. a process of conversion be-
gan to set I'm In - German mind.
The vast Teutonic force. in the pink
of condition. with almost half cen
tury of preparation, was actually
shaken and turned back. The Off
cial expressions of victory no long
er re-echoed in the minds of the
fighting soldiers. The battle Of Ca
lais, which was in reality no nearer
Calais than the User, with its terri
fc loss of probably two hundred
thousand Teutons, seemed to stagger
the German mind. The failure OF
the capture of Warsaw completed the
disillusionment Until during the
last two months" says the report
Evening journal., 1915-04-21

"the most intelligent of the prison
crs have all admitted that no one
could any longer say on which side
victory would rest" And recently
letters seized on dead officer speak
of "the imminencc of a military and
economic hemming in of Germany"
They discuss "thc possibility of Ger

ed inside out o." On January Is
an officer of the German General
Staff, captured, said: Perhaps this
struggle of despair has already be-

way of the aggressor. No such strug-
Gle of despair can ever set in in the
hearts of the scanty Belgian soldiers
who have fought valiantly a losing
but a glorious battle of sheer de-
fense. Despair is the just part and
lot of the aggressor; and despite all
our sympathy for the hosts of hon
est and Woodworking Germans who
never sought war; who hardly know
what they are fighting for. we can
not but feel satisfaction that sin
against the human race should be 20
fifty and certainly punished on earth /:
that the way of the aggressor should
be made hard and perilous, be his
name Napoleon or Wilhelm: that the
wages of arrogance should be des-
pair and defeat.

the new elaborate apparatus of law
denoted by the Federal Trade Com
mission
Corporate competition" and Gov
ernment regulation are irreconcif-
able terms. The effect OF Government
regulation is to accelerate tendencies
toward corporate combination. For
proof consult the history of our rail-
roads since the Interstate Commerce
Commission came into existence.
When competition had all but
wrecked the railroads financially, e.
forts were made to bring about rea-
sonably profitable conditions through
agreements between the carriers.
These falling because there was lack
of any legal sanction for them. there
was nothing for the railroads TO do
but combine into large systems There
is now no political dervish who would
advocate the disintegration OF rail
road systems and a return TO the era
of competition.
Not even the Government can have
and eat its cake. II cannot extend
the scope OF public regulation over
the economic activities of the citizen
and at the same time forbid the citl-
zcns to follow the line OF least resis-
tancc in the quest for profits. The
theories of the Sherman anti-trusl

Tho New Century Club is composed Of earnest in

sentiment along many beneficial lines but also done
much constructive work of a civic and social nature.
The eagerness with which Il has given approval to the
cleanup and pant-up campaign shows conclusiyely
that is st ruled by the old and beneficial spirit and
that 1t recognizes that the campaign supplies to Will

the community that is well worth while.

The Goldman woman, is herself "a fine barker and

Warning will be
Sent to Germany
Next Note viii Definitely State Just
What Berlin May Expect In the
Event Of Further Violation

Washington, July 19.-With the
return here of President Wilson, the
formulation of the policy to be pur-
sued by the United States as a con-
sequence of Germany's last note on
submarine warfare will be begun.
The President will collaborate with
Secretary Lansing in completing a
note to the German government that
has been tentatively prepared to be
dispatched probably before the end of
the coming week.
While details as to the course
which Is to be followed are withheld.
It is known that both the President
and Mr.. Lansing have practically
made up their minds that a definite
statement of what the consequences
of further violation of American
rights would be should be given to
the German government in the next
communication. There is little like
lihood that there will be any further
discussion of the principles involved.
Position Is Strengthened
BY the recent attempt to destroy
the British liner Orduna, carrying
score of Americans on her voyage to
the United States with no munitions
or contraband, officials here feel that
the position of the United States as
stated in its previous notes has been
materially strengthened. They de-
clare it bears out the Amerc can CON
tention that the character of a YES.
sci. her destination and cargo can be
safely determined only by visit and
search. As yet official information
Is lacking to show whether the Ordu'
ma was attacked without warning and
what the circumstances were of her
encounter with the German suDmar'
inc. In discussion of the case stress
is laid upon the fact that the vessel
was enroute to the United States and
carried no cargo Of Importance, max
ing the attack on vessel carrying.
Americans seemingly unwarranted.
A statement Of the circumstances
probably will be made by American
passengers aboard the orduna to the
state department, although the Am
eri9an government might take cog
nizance of newspaper statements. A
thorough investigation Of the facts
will be made and request probably
viii be sent to the German govern
ment for its report of the affair.
