that it is entirely within the range of
possibilities that the president may
announce to congress that he has de-

there can be but one answer to a
continued disregard of the lives and

The repeated declaration that the

the belief that after presenting the

More Troops For Pershino

SAN ANTONIO, Tex. April IS
General Funston is sending to General
Pershing more than 1000 additional
troops and there is reason to believe
that even more will be placed at his
disposal if the campaign against Villa
is continued The troops which have
been ordered to Pershing's base at
Columbus, are now on duty along the
border. what troops will relieve them
and where they will come from re-
manned unanswered. It may be that
the war department will have to au-
thorize the sending of the few re-
maining troops in the United States
into this department or it may be
that the filling of the vacant points
along the border may be left to the
government of Texas, which may send
the militia.
The TROOPS selected for General
Pershing are the Sixth cavalry from
the Brownsville district, the Seven
teenth infantry from Eagle Pass,
troops l. of the Tenth cavalry, from
Fort Apache, AriZ.. and one battalion
of the Twenty fourth infantry. ono
company of which is at Ell Paso, one
at Maria, and another at Fabens.
Maria is a town just north of Oil
maya. on the Mexican frontier AMI
| Fabens is on the Rio Grande, only a
/ few miles from Ell Paso.
In addition to these troops, totalling
| 1906 Genera, Pershing now has in
his base guard at Columbus 800 men,
! but the necessity of maintaining at
least that many there is recognized.
General Pershing requested more
troops some time ago. but General
Funston hesitated to order them be-
cause he was faced with the danger
of weakening earrisoned and patrolled
points along the border He has au-
thoritv to move such troops in his
department as he wishes, but the
strengthening Of any point from an
other department rests with Wash
! ington
Staff officers here were convinced
some days ago that unless Villa was
taken before lac got beyond points
within a short distance south of Sa-
tevo. the chances of getting him WerS
remote. That point was soon reached
and villa remains at large-or dead

It is to be hoped by all friends of
civilization-and what sane adult is
nOt?-that the picture of ruin and dev-
astation in Mexico which E. ]. ARIA
gives in Leslie's is vastly overdrawn.
Surely Mexico has no enemy on this
side of the Rio Grande who could wish
to see her people the victims Of such
brigandage, robbery, rapine and brutal
orgies as Leslie's contributor describes.
He says that travellers are robbed of
their clothing, as we'll as their horses
and coaches, if they happen to be rid
ing or driving. Railway. trains are Of
ten wrecked or held up by looters.
Hunger is we'll nigh universal, and
thievery Of the simple necessaries of
life prevails, though often punished
with death. The article appears to
bark back to the reign of Diaz for
days Of liberty and justice. However,
it's tone is in such contrast with the
hopeful views Of intelligent and pa
triotic as well as nonpartisan Mex
leans who have spoken that it must
be taken as being, at best, just anoth-
er mans view, good for what it is
worth.

The bill in congress for an increase
of allowance in the diplomatic and
consular service of the United States
serves to call attention to the extra
burden imposed by the European war
upon our consuls abroad. Upward of
three score of these important servants
Of the nation are located in countries
which are at war. Some of the coun-
tries to which they are accredited have
been subjected to war excitement and
warlike feelings and animosities from
the beginning, and some have been in
vaded by hostile armies. Troublous
times add materially to the labors of
the Office of consul. Calls are made
upon consular officials for assistance
and advice and sometimes for what is
virtually a protest against local pro-
ceedings in matters which affect the
interests and welfare of subjects of
the United States or those claiming
United States protection. The ambas-
sailors and ministers are located in the
capitals Of the nation to which they
are accredited, but the consuls are
scattered, and the consulates become
the nearest and most convenient asy-
lums for the distressed. Through them
important and sometimes highly val
liable information comes promptly to
Washington.

The new census of New York state
shows that there are nearly 100000
foreign born residents who are unable
to speak English, two-thirds Of them
also unable to read or write any Ian
guage whatever. The forces now at
work to Americanize the alien element
have a big problem in the Empire
State, but every state has the same
problem in a degree. Such people are
everywhere, and those who can read
and write often use their talents to
teach harm to their fellow men and
women. The best remedy is separa-
ton, the abolition Of 'Chinatowns, Lit
tie Italys, ghettos and the like. So
long as aliens crowd together they will
be aliens still except when they want
privileges denied them everywhere else
on earth. The most insolent critics
and at heart the worst foes of our
national standards and ideals are the
self satisfied cyclists who made the
hit Of their lives when they landed at
Ellis island. Singly they may be de-
hyphenated and Americanized, but in
crowds they are a menace.

'Jhma's pitifNl helplessness is not
due mainly to lack Of military spirit
and preparedness China has not been
a nation for at least two generations,
rather a loosely bound bundle of
sticks. The great TAPPING rebellion,
which in the middle of the last cen
tury swept across the land from the
south to the north without arousing a
national spirit, demonstrated and per-
haps accelerated as we'll the disinte-
grafton present and at work. The
masses didn't like the government
Therefore it could shift for itself. One
province had no love for another, and
it's griefs did not appeal. Cheaper to
appease, feed, buy off the rebels than
to fight them OF help the government
fight. The south looked on and smiled
when the Japanese overran the north
ern provinces in 1S945. Southern Chi
ma is still antagonistic to Northern
China. The north has for long held
the seat of government. Yuan Shih
Izai was of the north. Independence
has it's home in the south. There re-
publicanism is the only watchword of

Recently the Railway Age Gazette
published figures showing that railroad
fatalities among trainmen are decreas-
ing. Official statistics of the fatalities
in the years 1890 and 1915 are given
Last year the rate was 1 killed to ev-
cry $40 operatives, whereas twenty-five
years ago it stood 1 to every 1O5. Be-
tween the first and last years Of the
statistical period there were fuctua-
lions, and the decline was not regular.
One theory has been considered which
finds Endorsement from experience in
other fields. That is that the fatalities
rise with a pressure of traffic and de-
cline when traffic falls. 1t has been OBJ
served that accidents are more COM
mon when exposed operatives are IA
tigued than when they are fresh and
alert. During a rush Of traffic opera
tives are more liable to get fatigued
and nervous than when traffic can be
easily handled. knowledge Of this fact
and improved methods Of handling
traffic, especially extra traffic, may ac-
count for the decline, and if so it is
reasonable to believe that conditions
will improve right along.

Commenting upon the New York
compulsory training act which recent
ly received the sanction of Governor
Whitman, the Chicago Tribune says
that the law is likely to become a
model for acts to be passed by other
states. The Tribune adds that there
is no threat Or peril Of militarism in
the proposal, simply a measure to give
citizens some elementary conception of
the exactions of military service. It
is useless to blink at the fact that
compulsion means militarism in the
most deplorable sense, the placing of
autocratic power in the hands of the
state military authorities. Military
invasion of the home sphere was a
prime evil of the British rule in the
colonies, which caused our forefathers
to rebel in 177G. However, the New
York law is not likely to revolutionize
the military situation at stroke. The
Legislature thought so little Of it that
it appropriated only 100000 to put it
into operation, barely enough to take
census even in the least expensive
way. Meanwhile the boy scouts will
continue to train and discipline boys
who voluntarily offer themselves and
at the same time inculcate habits and
ideas which will better fit them for
citizenship. One way to neutralize OBJ
noXious laws is to remove the material
they are meant to operate upon.
Training in the boy scouts should be
allowed to count. as far as it goes, on
the requirements of the state training
laws.

Pretty much the whole country is in
terested in the stamping out of un-
wholesome restaurants in the great
centers. At home the casual diner at
restaurants needs no guide, but trips
to the big city are often made at times
and under conditions which will not
admit of careful selection, so the
stranger must go it blind. a fit of
dyspepsia or touch of ptomaines may
result, but the caterer has his money
and the victim no redress. If the New
York inspectors could blacklist the
worst shops-and a big percentage fall
in that class-the public would be serv-
ed and careless restaurateurs likely
to reform their kitchens.

/ That Russia should be able 70 ''come
back" after repeated military reyerses,
which in some cases amounted to mill
tary disasters OF the first order, should
not surprise any one at this stage. It
requires absolute conquest and over
riding such fate, for instance, as be-
fell Belgium and Servia-to drive a ma
ton to the wall. Russia is vast, and
her resources are not centralized. She
could lose a realm in the north and
another in the south and still be
powerful Russia. The Russian people
have no keen Imagination to make
them scare easily or to incite them to
reason discreetly. A good soldier
knows when he is whipped, indeed,
but he also knows when he is not
whipped. Russian armies have been
whipped, and badly whipped, but the
masses Of the nation must know that
the defeats were due to circumstances
which might not operate again in this
war. The Southern Confederacy in
1863 suffered relatively greater re-
verses than befel Russia in 1915, yet
a year later met the victors at the very
outworks with a resistance which it
took double armies a whole year to
overcome. Russia has long been a
great nation, but how morally great
for a combat with progressive western
peoples could not be demonstrated
short of a supreme test, such as Ger
many, Austria and the Turks have
forced upon her. It is conceivable that
she may be the only belligerent to
come out of long struggle with the
full armor Of nation upon her.
