SEES GREAT US. POWER
IN AFFAIRS OF WORLD
London Editor Calls Mr.. Wilson
Most Sagacious Statesman
Since Lincoln.

LONDON, November 1S.-"When Europe
emerges from the present struggle the
balance Of the hemispheres will have
been fundame entally changed in favor
Of the western, and the United States
will have an authority in the affairs
of the world which 1t never had before
and which, even II It had had. it's his
toric policy would not have permitted
IT to exercise"
This declaration is contained in a
feature article In the Daily News, writ
ten by Alfred c.. Gardiner, editor of
tie newspaper, who, in emphasizing
the indebtedness of the entente allies
to the United States in the matter of
munitions. says:
I'VE rejoice in the election Of the
most sagacious statesman American
politics has thrown UP since Lincoln.
II We had reason to be thankful that
Mr.. Wilson was elected in 1912, there
il still more reason to be thankful that
he was reelected in 1916 1t is tho
one indisputable CLEAN of light In the
dark future that lies before the world.
1t is to do something nobler
than the building OF higher tariff
wall for the American plutocracy that
he comes back to power. it is to eStab-
lish society of nations and to change
the whole doctrine of force In tho
world.
He cannot eliminate force. but 1t
LIZ in his power and the power of the
American nation to make force grind
tho wheels of peace instead of the
wheels OF war
This will not be welcomed by the
militarists of any country: it will be
treated as q mere day dream by those
who believe war an indestructible
character of human society. But 1t
will have the passionate support of the
common people of all lands. and it is
tho only hope Of democracy winning an
enduring victory over despotism"

Physical Unfit Eliminated,

Wherever the males assemble for de-
portation doctors examine them, and
the physically unfit are eliminated, to-
gether with municipal and relief or
ganiZation officials. Those without
regular employment are the first Sc
lected for deportation.
The principal object of the deporta-
tion, it was said, appears to be to Sc
cure skilled workers. Men regularly
employed have been enrolled from sew
eral communeS. A large number was
taken at Jamappes from factories which
were self supporting and bank en-
ployes were impressed at Mons. The
relief organization in Luxembourg prov
1nce was carrying on public works and
giving employment to many men, but
the works stopped month ago and the
laborers thus rendered unemployed are
being deported.
Despite the statements credited to
German officers that the deported men
VIII not be employed in military work

contrary as it has been reported that
