Emigrant and Immigrant.

Our immigration has given us plenty OF
food for serious thought since the second
quarter of the last century, but at least
one of its gravest problems has within the
last few days been settled once for all
the problem of divided allegiance. That
question will never come up again. II
may not be amiss, however, at the present
moment, to look at the immigrant from
the other end, to consider him as an emf
grant, that we may the better understand.
In this inquiry immigrations for special
reasons do not come into consideration
those caused by the IRISH famine, for in
stance; by the German revolution of 1S4S,
or by the later political and religious per-
secutons in Finland. Poland and Armenia
Generally speaking. emigration is an eco
nomic movement-a search of labor physl-
cal or mental. for a better market. Rarely
does the emigrant leave his mother coun-
try voluntarily. On the contrary, it forces
him to leave by means of low wages or
unemployment; yet, having thus expelled
him. it has until recent years always
treated him as deserter and, when he
changed his allegiance, as renegade.
A change came over this scornful att.
tude when the governments Of the Old
World began to perceive the continuing
economic value TO them of the emigrant
in his new home Trade was found to fol-
low him and TO increase as he prospered.
Southeastern Europe discovered that emf
grafton meant remittances of savings
running into many millions annually.
Italy especially has benefited enormously
by the frugality of her children abroad
The American tourist in the peninsula
sees evidences of this wherever he goes in
the country districts. A change of policy
was indicated. 1t became TO the interest
of the mother country not to pronounce
ban. as heretofore, but to keep in touch
with the emigrant, to prevent him as long
as possible from becoming a settler. with
all his interests, including his savings, cen

Memorial Day, 1915.

Against that mental background created
by the conhagration cnveloping Europe
the celebration of our Memorial Day takes
on a new significance. These men whose
graves we decorate fought in the great
est war, in point of numbers involved and
destruction wrought, preceding the present
conflict But that was so long ago now,
measured by the giant strides Of material
and mechanical advancement, that 1t as
sumes in our minds the air Of an ancient
struggle with puny weapons and governed
by old-fashioned notions Of chivalry,
though men survive to-day, still hearty
and vigorous, who took part in it.
It's very remoteness serves to empha-
size the peace. so profound and healing
and prosperous, that has obliterated the
wounds and enmities Of the Civil War. The
skirmish with Spain, an Indian battle or
two. were no more than the rumbings Of
thunder in a long summers day. Little
wonder that as q nation we feel reluc-
tant TO break the spell, TO bring back the
days Of strife in their new and more
awful gIise.
And yet what these men whose mem
cries we honor fought for with such spirit
and sef-sacrifce-the dignity and integ
rity of the United States-is now seriously
challenged for the first time since their
victory That Will be the thought upper
most in the minds of Americans to-day.
It Will help them to appreciate the atti-
tude Of those patriots, no less peacefully
inclined, who answered Lincoln's call over
fifty years ago. 1t will help them to set
their faces like stone against any COM
promise, however specious, Of this nations
self-respect.
The days exercises, above al. should
remind Americans Of German extraction
Of that allegiance so dear to their fathers
whose graves are now marked with the
Stars and Stripes.

Thirty Years Young.

It is because youth is 80 much habit
of mind that the women of Boston have a
real grievance against their Young
Women's Christian Association for bar
ring boarders over thirty.
Mr.. Robert L. Raymond, in the June "At-
lantic," speaks of that moment when late
youth passes into early middle age" Of
the dawn of realization that one is no
longer young. For vividness it is like a
fash Of lightning in a black sky" "The
pleasant sense of superfuous time is gone;
one must hurry; and perhaps it is too
late"
That moment comes TO most, he finds,
between the ages of thirty-fve and forty,
to some sooner and to few later. Surely
TO have it come at thirty must be a
tragedy.
The blow strikes man in his ambi-
tons, his feelings and his spiritual nat
ure," writes Mr.. Raymond. Il do not
think the merely physical phase is impor-
tant. Inability to turn handsprings or do
a backward dive does not hurt much. 1t
is the other things which count"
And so it is, no doubt, with woman.
Her panic proceeds not from sight Of the
vague lines developing near the corners Of
her eyes and mouth. Of the few gray hairs
hidden in the wavy masses above her ears.
1t comes from the suddenly perceived ne
cessity Of testing youthful hopes and
early promise" with actual perform
ance"-of taking stock.
The rule established by the Boston as
sociation seems cunnngly devised to reg
lister just this mental shock in its vic
tins. All girls earning more than $15
week must give up their rooms before
they become thirty, leaving only those
earning less to be ousted for age.
Age, indeed! Thirty years mark the
very hcyday of youth.

thereafter aided in sending his remittances
by reputable banking institutions, many
of them under direct government control.
Only when his departure IN too great
numbers threatens the country's military
strength. as in Austria-Hungary few
wears ago, or upsets its labor market as
has been the case in the struggling indus
tries of Southern Italy, is emigration now
adays interfered with In Europe.
From this recognition Of the emigrant
as a continued economic asset to the coun-
try Of his origin to speculation concerning
his possible uses as a political influence
in the country of his adoption was long
and bold step. yet in contrary sense
the meddling of the American immigrant
in the affairs Of the government he has
abjured-it was far from unknown. 1t
will suffice to recall the Irish-American
activities Of forty years ago. More re-
Gently we have seen leaders Of the Hun
garian home rule party appealing to their
countrymen here for support, and pan
Serbian and pan-Slavistic propagandas,
which presented the pleasing novelty of
spending European money here like water
instead Of appealing for American funds.
1t remained for Germany, however, to
dream of a political power within the
state wherewith to exert pressure in an
On the surface It worked
well enough In times of peace and amity
after all, it is pleasing to hear from
eminent lips how highly one is thought of
back home-but with the crisis came the
awakening. OF all the miscalculations of
German diplomacy this has proved to be
the widest: far wilder than reliance upon
Russian strikes, an Ulster rebellion or a
South African revolution.

Do Two Wrongs Make a Right?

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: In your issue to-day you print a letter
signed by A. l.. Fairchild, dated May II. 1915
Permit me to answer the gentleman by asking
if he goes on the theory that two wrongs
make right. Also, how he means to sever
diplomatic relations with Germany without
bringing on war with this country. Also
If he is not aware Of the fact that IL would
he almost impossible to return all the Ger
mans ''to the high seas; and certainly such
a plan does not seem either American or
reutral.
1t seems to me that while The Tribune
always assumes an impartial attitude in
FISHING to show both sides OF question it
can do no good to publish such unfair ideas
rs those referred to- especially when they are
apt to be misunderstood and may cause Ger
mans abroad to attribute very un-American
attitudes to us. F. b. LIPPMANN.

Submarine Losses.

A report from Copenhagen says that
German naval authorities admit the loss
of seventeen submarines since the opening
Of the war" The source Of this informa-
ton Is not clear, but If it is official we may
be sure that the number is not overstated
According to q London estimate, twice as
many have already been accounted for.
This must, however, be largely conjectural.
II Is impossible to determine the exact
number because of the difficulty of ascer-
tanning the fate of several reported
rammed or of establishing the facts in
those cases where the masters of vessels
thought" they had run down submarines.
1t is quite possible that there have been
losses of which the British public has not
been informed. As it is evident that in
formation in certain cases might be of in
estimable service to the enemy, so it is not
inconceivable that reports received here
about captures never mentioned in the
may be true. According to
some Of these rumors, several boats have
been taken and considerable number de-
stroyed in the last few weeks. Another
report is that some of the supply stations
of the ~" boats have been found and the
oil tanks suitably treated. Nets and en-
have been sunk about the
British Isles, and it is possible that some
boats have been disposed of in this way,
too for the submarine is virtually blind
under water.
But without a frank statement from
the German Admiralty it is idle to at
tempt to determine the number lost. For
the rest, the so-called blockade has been
a manifest failure only emphasized by the
of the Lusitania, for had 1t
been successful so desperate and dastardly
an enterprise would probably not have
been contemplated. The record shows that
in eleven weeks of blockade duty the
German submarines succeeded in sinking
fOrty-two British merchant vessels. Dur
ing this period the total arrivals and sail
ngs of oversee steamers of all nationali-
ties from ports of the United Kingdom
amounted to 1890.

Merit Marks for Fremen.

Board of Merit which renders awards for
heroism in lifesaving. The new system

be rated on the mems everyday conduct
and work
The result of this ought TO be a general
stimulation Of the members of the force
a Tightening up of the fibre. Men whose
daily performances are highly rated. but
who through the chances Of the work have
not happened 10 become heroes, will be
able TO enter examinations for promotion
