Stuff LEADERS REST

Mrs. Laidlaw Opens Summer

passage through the Legislature OF the
Whitney-Brereton constitutional amend
ment to give women the right to vote in

Mrs. Laidlaw opened her summer home
on Long Island. and Mrs. whitehouse
gave a dinner party. Both took their
little daughters out for walks for the
first time in the weary weeks since they
mounted guard at Albany to see that the
bill was passed.
Mrs. Whitehouse said last night that
no special jubilatiUn would be held.
She meant to rest for n few days,
preparatory to the calling of h suf-
frage local conventions all over the
State. These begin the end OF next
week.

he finally gave up the fight. He told us

submitted than II was the first time.
His figures. like most of those given by
the ants. are misleading.
For example. in south Dakota the
suffrage vote has climbed steadily for
twenty years-bigger each time the
question was submitted. The suffrage
vote In that State was double in 1914
what II vas in 1898. In Ohio h refer
endum polled a larger affirmative vote
the second time II VAS submitted than
1t did the first. Nebraska has had three

suffrage vote was seven tunes as large
as the FIRST. The third time II was
three and two-thirds As large As the
second. Michigan has had three ref

that it's cause is sustained by the
blessing from on high. Not being
engaged in the war, Americans give
their thanks for the fact that thsy
are at peace, and pray that they
may be continued in that happy es-
tate. They presume, too, that for
their peaceable aims and aspirations
they are entitled to peculiar consid
Grafton at the hands Of divine au-
thority.
There will be no doubt Of the sin
certify that moves people and PEG:
pies to presume that they are en-
titled to, and can get for the de-
vout as';ing, the support Of omnipo-
tence. But the petitions involve a
most discomforting conflict Of
claims; and without doubt the au-
thors Of the prayers are right in
supporting their faith by works
which aim at the effective organiza-
ton Of the heaviest battalions. .,

of taking Monastir, which means
opening an easy way for rapid ad-
vance farther northward. At Mona
stir they will be about $50 miles
southwest Of Sofia, and 100 miles
away from the Bulgarian border.
Their powerful and very rapid adj
vance has compelled the. Bulgarians
to fall back precipitately. 1t has
undoubtedly weakened the Teuton-
Bulgar offensive in other regions, as
lis indicated by reports Of further
Germanic reyerses in Dobrudja, and
also by the fact that the German at
tack through Pennsylvania is
progressing very slowly.
Roumania, in short, is in much
less danger than a fortnight ago;
and Bulgaria. thanks to- the sudden
activity Of the Saloniki forces, is in
great danger. For IL the Macken-
sen force in Dobrudja should be de-
cisively beaten, as present reports
indicate II may be, and II the Mona
stir advance should be pressed
against Bulgaria and the line Of the
Orient railway, there would be pos
sibility of that tremendously i'm
portant line being cut, and Of Sofia
itself being menaced. 1t would be
remarkable reversal il Bulgaria
should meet the fate that was
planned for Roumania. The cam
paign. is young, and reports meager;
but the heavy fighting on all three
fronts Indicates that some kind Of
decision is being powerfully sought
by both sides.

A TASK FOR oMNIPoTENCE

Londoners awoke the other morn.
ing' to find blank walls and bill
boards plastered with appeals to
pray daily for the success of their
arms and cause. Doubtless many
will respond, as many others have
long been lifting the daily appeal to
the Throne of Grace.
France, we are assured, is having
a religious revival as a result Of the
war. But it was Germany which, at
the forefront in every measure of
preparedness, first enlisted omnipo-
tence in support of it's cause. Long
before the war, when less forehand-
ed peoples and cabinets were plug
ging comfortably along without
realizing that they might need di-
vine aid, the Kaiser announced the
famous partnership of "Me und
Gott." He has never indicated a
suspicion that the junior member
has become disaffected and with
drawn. All Germany specializes in
reliance on divine grace-and the
biggest guns and best drilled regi-
ments-to help it win the war.
Russia is nowise behind the other
nations in confidence that it is the
very special protege of divine inter-
est. Nowhere can be found fight
ing country that lacks. assurance
The Washington times., 1916-11-18
THE NEAR EASTERN CAMPAIGN

Monastir seems doomed shortly to
fall before the advance of the Ser
bians and their allies in the Mace
DOMAIN fighting. If the Bulgars lose
it, they will be a badly demoralized
force; for in order to take it the
entente forces have had to pass
through a country rough, mountain
Gus, and splendidly fortified. If
they could accomplish this, the great
Macedonian plain, lying before them
after they shall have taken Mona
stir, ought to give comparatively
easy going.
In their effort to steam roller
Roumania out Of existence, the leu
tonic allies attacked through the
Carpathian passes. from Transylva-
MIA, and from Dobrudja, on the
south. There are three major fight
ing areas in the Near Eastern con-
fiict; in Macedonia, in Pennsylvania
and the edge of Roumania, and in
Dobrudja.
The Teuton plan doubtless was to
crush Roumania between the at
tacks from Dobrudja and Transylva-
mia; to get to Bucharest, with one
force or the other, as soon as pos
sible; and after effecting a junction
of these two invading forces, to fin
ish reducing the country as fast as
possible.
That the entente forces in Mace
donna and around Saloniki would
make themselves a great factor in
this situation seems not to. have
been believed by the German staff.
But just that thing has happened.
These forces are now ON the point

THE NEW MERCHANT MARINE

Stevenson Taylor, president of the
Society of Naval Architects and Ma.
rine Engineers, discussed the mer'
chant marine problem of the world
at the annual dinner Of that organi-
cation, and pointed it's lesson for
America. Some of his calculations
were astonishing. Mr.. Taylor starts
with the statement that normally
before the war, the world had about
100000 tons of merchant ship
ping. Of this 100000 has been de.
stroyed, 100000 has been COM
Wandered for other service, and A.
100000 has been informed. That is
just about 40 per cent of the worlds
salt water shipping is cut off, at a
time when there is more insistent de-
mand for it than ever before.
The situation as to shipping is,
however, even worse than these fig
ures indicate. The ships still left in
commission are largely comman-
deered, in effect if not nominally, to
serve the war needs of the fighting
countries. The Great British mer-
chant marine has been taken under
control of the government. The sail
ings, routes, and even the cargoes of
vessels are dictated blythe govern
ment, because the very national life
depends on the utilization of this
great facility for the purpose Of
getting the greatest possible ma
tional strength from it. Trade in
general, and the trade of neutrals in
particular, must necessarily get Sec
Ondary consideration.
American shipyards are construct
ing more tonnage than ever before;
their orders cover their extreme
capacity for the next two years; and
before long their contributions will
begin to be, significant. It is the
time for America, which has both
the money to build and the business
to employ ships, to press forward.
And it is doing that.
