CARRANzNs DIFFICULT GAME.

~ ENERAL CARRANZA is playing a difficult and
" dangerous game. When Americans are consider
ing and forming judgment upon the Mexican situation
and its most recent Developments they should bear
that fact in mind
No doubts that Carranza is earnestly desrous
that Francisco villa and his followers shall be de-
stroyed Nor do think that anyone who can see
through the diplomatic curtain doubts that the de
facto President OF the Mexican Republic is perfectly
willing to have American aid to an extent that will
not give offense to Mexican national sentiment
Carranza, however, knows Mexican character much
better than does President Wilson. He realizes that
with Mexican national sentiment offended by the
presence and actions of United States troops far in
the interior Of that country villa the bandit OF TO-
day. may become villa the national hero of tomorrow
and that Carranza, the de facto President of today
may become Carranza the prescribed fugitive to-
morrow.
Hints already are given that in Difference to Car
ranzas wish, most OF the American troops now in
Mexico will be withdrawn. leaving to several troops
Of American cavalry and the Carranza army the work
OF continuing the operations against villa and his fol-
lowers. Within few days definite agreement bear
ing upon those matters may be reached with the idea
OF placating Mexican sentiment preventing war with
that country sustaining the Carranza government de-
sroying the villa forces and protecting the American
border.
Tho United States does not wish war; it has no
desire 10 offend Mexican sentiment and as it was the
first TO recognize the Carranza government it does
not seek to destroy t. AT the time il is the SEN
tment OF Americans that American life person and
property must be held safe by Mexcans on both sides
of the border. and that. II the Mexican Government
hold them safe the American Government must

A Mistake in the Policy of The

made this extraordinary finding as to
the policy of armOr manufacturers:
"Ihere was every evidence Of com.
binatiOn and cOlIusiOn instead of com.
petition, But NO PROOF"
We are accused OF being "monop-
oly.' That is a word the American
people don't like. Couple the word
monopoly with a word suggesting
the hardness. the .irresistibility Of
'armOr plate" and the very words
themselves, il often enough linked to-
gether, come to uggest-without any
proof-the existence of motives OF sell
fishness and greed But the conclu-
sion is absolutely withount warrant in
fact.
We shall make the mistake Of ST.
lence no longer.
Henceforth we shall pursue poiicy
OF publicity. Misinformation will not
be permitted to so uncorrected.
II is and has been the policy of our
company TO deal with the American
Government in the frankest and most
liberal manner. We expect hencefOrth
TO place the details OF all those rela.
tiOns before the American people.
We have offered to make armor for
the government at any price the gov
ernment shall name as fair
Certainly the widespread publica-
tion of such an offer is an effective
challenge to our own good faith.

To the Members OF Congress:
II is said that manufacturers of ar
NOR plate have "gouged" the country.
This statement has been repeated
through many years. II was not true,
it is not true.
The fact is that had manufacturers
of armor invested the same capital in
commercial steel plants, they would
have realized as much profit as the
total receipts from the government
for armor have amounted to.
The United States has for twenty
years obtained the highest grade OF
armor and has paid a lower price for

power CF'rom data compiled under

Armor manufacture has been and
still is the least profitable feature of
the steel business.

Company has been that IL kept quiet.
We have allowed irresponsible as
sertions to be made for so long with

lieve them TO be proven facts

KULTUR.
From the New York Sun.
Several more exponents of true
neutrality have been brought to light
by the police after a prosperous
career of blowing up merchant ships
departing from American ports. Their
enterprise exhibits that superior re-
spect for law and punctilious regard
for the obligations reposing on all
persons domiciled in the United
States in which persons not Of Teu-
tonic extraction are lamentably lack
ing, according to the best observa-
tions of Kultur, and their methods
betray. so far as they have been dis
closed, an approximation to the pro-
cesses of the yeggman which must
stir the very fOunts of true affec-
tiOn.
It is a matter of sincere regret in
high TeutOnic circles, We are cred
IDLY informed, that the inherent and
acquired limitations Of the unhyphen-
ated American mind prevent it from
recognizing the obvious prominence
in all things that are good of those
whose hearts are bound up with the
Kaiser's cause. With what detection,
then. will the destestable activities
of Captain Tunney and his aids be
regarded wherever the true light of
devotion to honor, liberty and peace
is cherished!

The defects in railroad regulation
are discussed by the Railroad Busi-
ness Association in a bulletin just
issued. The association comprises
manufacturing and other concerns
dealing with the railroads, and is
therefore interested in the welfare Of
the great transportation systems. In
the bulletin the association asserts
that betterments are neglected and
new construction halted because OF
increased expenses which are not
balanced by Increased revenues, and
that the government has not provided
any method whereby the railroads
can increase their revenue.

From the New York SUM-

The German Imperial Chancellors
address was a protest and a defiance;
a protest against the design of the
Allies to destroy the military power
of Germany. a defiance to them to do
their worst. with notice that Ger

and government of Belgium to suit
herself. and with Austria would shape
the destiny of conquered Poland In
his reply Mr.. Asquith defined and in
turn defied. Peace on your terms,

The British Premier had rather the
advantage of the German Chancellor
in an audience OF Allies and friends
who were prepared to applaud every
thing he said. knowing in advance
that he would declare for prosecu-
tion OF the war until the Teutonic
Powers were beaten in the field. Dr.

upon to make a political speech that

Colonel George Pope, president OF

alton by tae association of a nation
wide movement in behalf Of the IN
dustries OF the United States. This is
in accordance with the action Of the
board OF directors at a recent meet
ing, when ample provision for fnanc-
ing and conducting the movement
was made. This campaign is intended
to enlist the cooperation Of all Amer
leans, regardless OF their occupation,
age or sex, and is absolutely without
concern as to their political afiilia-
tions. In making the announcement
Colonel Pope said:
when the great European up
heaval is ended. vast economic COM
mercial and financial changes are
bound to ensue. In this international
adjustment, the stability of American
industry can be maintained and pro-
NOTED only by the intelligent and
concurrent action Of all our citizens.

tion holds that this situation adverse
ly affects the country in a military
way. since the thorough development
of transportation systems is an i'm
portant feature of national defense.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion is held by the association to be
handicapped because of the multi
plicity and incompatible character OF
its functions, which include those of
detective, prosecutor, jury. judge and
mechanical expert The commission
ers cannot perform all this work, and
thus bureaus and subordinate officials
take over responsibilities beyond
their capacity.
The vcNed question of equitable rate
making is discussed by the bulletin
which suggests that justice will not b,
reached until the Interstate Commerc,
Commission is given power to order
