The little chickadees stay with us
all winter. They are very tame and
will often come to a window and
eat crumbs or seeds. But when
spring comes they usually retire to
the woods to build their nests and

Weather and Crops

Conditions both as to weather and

deeply stirred its people as the proposal made
by the city officials 10 erect an immense gar

people of our community would have brought
about an everlasting injury TO the future

War Correspondents in Germany

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Now that the enormous losses Of the
German army before Vcrdun are becoming
generally known. am pleased to note that
the American public is FESTIVE with the vaga-
ries Of the Prussanized correspondence
emanating from the Great Headquarters Of
the German Army in France" Such bunk
as the foreign war correspondents, in Ger
many especially, either see NJ to inflict or are
obliged by their German masters Of the War
staff TO produce for the obvious purpose Of
fmfamming the readers OF American news
papers should be severely censored by the
editors thereof.
This applies especially 70 the gush Of Carl
Alderman, Karl H. Won Wicgaud. Fox and
O'Donncll Bennett. to mention Just the lead
ing excmplars OF this particularly hourishing
tendency Of modern war correspondence. II
they arc Americans, why can't they give US
neutral stuff, and not the highly colorcd va
riety designed solely with an eye TO its safe
and speedy release by the German censor ?
OF course, some OF us know how they are
alternately coddled or sdmonished by the
Wihelmstrssse, but the stay st-home Ameri-
can reader cannot be expected 10 know that,
and, not reading between the lines, Is conse-
quently misled.
One Of the strongest impressions brought
back from recent visit TO Berlin was tho
admirable management Of war correspondents
By the General staff, which, while doubtless
privately consigning them 10 tho bottomless
pit. welcomed them on arrival and sped them
on their departure in such a hearty manner
that they all felt as II they'd loft their real
happy home. ! witnessed one of these get
sways" through accompanying we'll known
correspondent from Berlin 10 The Hague, and
the way he was coddled. buttled and yet
closely watched out Of the country was a
marvellous piece Of courteous yet highly cf-
fective work. But yet, when thereafter that
same highly pleased special writer attempted
10 break into England he was the recipient
Of a three hours severe grillng at Tilbury,
and was so e1ectually snubbcd while in Lon
don that he came away with anything but a
friendly feeling for tho British.
No, our German friends do this sort Of
thing better than the Entente. and let US
give them full credit for it, while not at the
same time failing 70 condemn the war CORE

unduly colored b. such hospitality.

New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1916-03-20

The people Of the United Kingdom have
been threatened for so long with measures
compelling them TO save chat the forth
coming Order in Council relating 10 "lux-
uries" will cause little surprise. II is
hardly astonishing that such an order was
necessary, FOR though the people have been
warned that rigid economy is necessary
and cautioned repeatedly against unneces-
sary expenditure it is not easy to deter
mine exactly what things are to be counted
as unnecessary or TO what extent il is
necessary 10 cut down.
The immediate reason for issuing the
order, however, is, as Mr.. Runcman points
out, the shortage Of tonnage in the mer-
camille marine. 1t must be remembered
that the British government has reausi-
toned a large part Of the merchant navy
probably not less than 40 per cent The
whole Of the shipping industry is now
under government control, and no weasel

The Summer Training Camps.

II has been suggested TO us by a CORE
spondent, whose letter we print in another
column, that the erroneous report Of the
abandonment Of the military training
camps in different parts Of the country this
summer must work harm unless its denial
have equal emphasis and circulation. The
Tribune is only too glad TO point out that
the plans for these camps have not been
changed, except to postpone for two weeks
the original date for the opening of the
Fort Oglethorpe encampment, and that
despite the demands upon our small regu-
lar army made by the Mexican incursion
enough instructors from among the officers
Of the regular army will be found to put
all the prospective campers through their
PAGES. We may be unprepared, but our
helplessness. so far at least, is not such
that drillmasters can't be found for the
10000 young men who expect to repeat
the Plattsburg experiment on greater
scale.
OF course the postponement Of the Fort
Oglethorpe camp is in itself eloquent tes-
timony TO the country's military weakness.
Here we are confronted with ever-re-
curing crises involving the enmity of the
greatest military nation in history, and we
find our excessively modest programme for
preparedness subject TO delay because so
large a proportion of our little army must
be drawn upon TO chase bandit. What
would be our case were we confronted with
the threatened invasion Of first-class
power? Is it possible that there remains
an American who can contemplate our
plight, present and potential, with equa-
lnimity?
| All the more reason why every man who
can should attend one of these summer
camps. 1t is a duty he owes TO his country
and 10 his own self-respect. With a gov
eminent in the role of Rip Van Wrinkle
still rubbing the sleep out Of his eyes. It
becomes incumbent on the individual citi-
zen 10 take the matter of the countrys
readiness into his own hands, to avail him
self Of every reasonable opportunity TO add
one moro soldier to the pitiful quota at his
Icountry's call

Why Not Defence?

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: pacilcist writer recently remarked
by the time the present war is over not one
Of the great nations will be in a condition
to attack US for twenty years" How do
we know this? We had war that cost us
$1,000, 100000, and NC lost $4,000 men,
killed in battle or .who died OF wounds or
OF diseases during the struggle
At the close OF that war We were greatly
reduced in fighting mon and money. Yet
We offered 10 fight France and ordered a
large army to the Rio, TO drive them out
OF Mexico. During the next seven years we
threatened both Spain and England. II was
only the fact that France got out OF Mexico
and England paid the United States si55oO.-
900 for the Alabama claims that kent us ont
OF war
Then why should We suppose that men Of
like passions with US should not make war
on the United States at the close Of thi,
unpleasant war? Some pacifcists tell us
that the nations that prepare for war al
ways get into war. Since nations that do
not prepare for war always get into war
instance China. please, will som. one tell
US where the argument is? Since all M
lions have war, why not get ready 10 defend
our families? ! congratulate you for the
able editorials that you are giving us through

Sir: A feeling, fostered by many Of our
public men, is growing in our country, great

all tho countries now at war The writer
has looked for the reason OF this sentiment
and traces il 10 German origin. They have
lost out I'm trying to gain our sympathes
and retaiatc by subtly pushing the idea that
the Allies hate US. They know that hate
breeds hate, and II they can only make US
believe that England and France especially
hate US, We in turn shall soon be hating
them.
II il my fortune often 20 meet citizens
from England, and sometimes from France
soon after they arrive in this country.
have questioned them carefully. and | cannot
find a single instance that lends color to the
idea that VIC are hated even that we are
really dislked It is quite true that they
often say that they fear that our love for
the dollar has let us pass by some matters
OF honor. The reproach in this is more the
feeling that an older brother would show
for loved younger brother who had not
come up 20 his expectations in some phase
Of life, but hope and faith in him is still
there. and no hate
To these over-the-sca brothers il is in
conceivable that We continue 10 be fooled
by the Central Powers. They don't appre-
ciate tho fact that we have a minority gov
eminent at present. They feel that We have
been local in our interests, but arc gradu-
ally getting national and will ono day be
international
People fighting for their lives with dear
ones already sacrificed, look at things from
different point Of view from us, who live
in n fools paradise" They see our ig-
norance on the great underlying question Of
the war. and are sorry for us. They don't
understand why We remain asleep They
know they are Aghting for our civilization
as well rs their own, and long for our ma
tional sympathy, even if we don't actually
participate in the war. In England a man
who shirks his duty is called a Stacker"
To them the United States is collectively a
Stacker" though they speak of It sadly, not
in hate
