When WilAmericaWoke?
from The CHICAGO tribune

For almost year now tho diplomacy
OF Mr.. Wilson has kept us on the brink
OF the European war.
For twice that time, since the taking
Iof Vera Cruz and the spread OF Mexican
anarchy. we have balanced on the edge
OF war in Mexico.
At this moment our international
relations with two nations are at the
swapping point.
In Mexico 200 miles through the
desert we have an expedition, in a
country whose hostility lB only too
apparent, with line Of cOmmuniCa-
ton which any resolute attack would
break; with It's retreat cut on by larg-
or armed forces under the dubious
control OF an Iniirm political lender
whose attitude toward us, despite his
debt to the present American govern
ment. Ia ambiguous. grudging, or even
covertly hostile. Along OUR border Of
] 200 miles pitifully inadequate force.
scattered by the handful, Is our border
peoples only defense from further as
sault.
AS for our German relations, We
know that II the president intends to
back his contentious. any moment may
precipitate us into the European con-
fllct.
Is there a sign that we are fit for
either ordeal? There Is not.
There Is fact after fact disclosed day
after day to show we are not At and
that we are not getting fit.
Yesterday one Of the most listin-
gufshed men in the navy, Admiral
Fiske, was constrained to confess the
opinion before congressional COM
mittee that the German navy Is aD-
proximately twice as strong as our
own. Our Atlantic fleet is supposed to
consist OF twenty-one battleships.
There are only fifteen in the line, and
three OF these are not in perfect con-
dition. Our fleet is blind" for we
have no air scouts and no swift battle
cruisers. Our submarines are few,
small and defective. Our shortage of
personnel is, at maximum, 5000 men.
We have no reserve and therefore no
source Of immediate supply for the
wastage of war or the manning and
offering of new ships.
On land we have Just had demon
strated the unreadiness Of our tiny
army TO act with swift decision in
mere affair of police. With the best
will in the world. with plenty of cour-
age and enterprise, the army was un-
able to strike for week because 1t Is
too small to patrol our Mexican bor-
der. is not properly equipped, is not
properly organized and disposed.
The half dozen aeroplanes, sent with
the expedition. which are not real war
planes. proved fifty per cent deficient.
In short, our miniature standing
army is not ready to meet even such a
problem as northern Mexico presents.
Before an invasion by first class pow
err it would be swept away like smoke
in a gale.
The national guard would be needed
In the case of intervention. But the
guard could not be ready for service
