A Short Memory, a Long Tongue.
Lovett, Ga.

'Ot course IL would De IOIy 10 Jump INTO
the gulf ourselves to good purpose. and
very probably nothing we could have done
would have helped Belgium. We have not the
smallest responsibility for what has befallen
her, and am sure that the sympathy of this
country for the suffering of the men, women
and children of Belgium is very real Never
theess this sympathy is compatible with full
acknowledgment of the unwisdom of uttering
single word of official protest unless we are
prepared to make that protest effective; and
only the clearest and most urgent national
duty would ever justify us in deviating from
our rule of neutrality and nonntereference.
One would guess that these are Colonel
RoOsevets words. They directly opposed to
his recent attacks the Wilson administration for
its failure to protest against Germanys invasion of
Belgium. But the quotation is from article by
Colonel Roosevelt published in the Outlook of Sep
TENDER %, 1914 He condemns the Admins
tration unsparingy for not having done the very
thing which he himself declared ought not to be
done when the occasion for any such action was
ripe.
One does not expect the Colonel to be consist
ent; indeed, his inconsistencies his most inter
esting trait But isn't it rather unfortunate if he
expects the public to take him at all seriously that
with so short memory he should have so long a
tongue?

Honor and Preparedness.

The great majority by which Congress has sus-

preparedness program.

on the so-called warning" resolution were taken
the House would go two TO against the Presi-

garrulous and has been fomented largely by the
same marplots who tried to make trouble in the

The House military committee has reported
unanimously bill for making the army more ade-
auate and more efficient That within itself augurs
we'll for the cause of national defense. month
ago the committee was confused within and was
beset by wild protests from without. The peace-at-
any-price element led by MIR. Bryan, doing its
utmost to arouse dissenson. IN the face of these
difficulties the committee has evolved measure
which goes far toward meeting the countrys needs
and which has won the favor of thoughtful men in
both parties

gress may be expected to stand no less reasonably

americas Trade Future.

Manufacturers representing millions of invest
ment will meet at New York tomorrow to devise
program for safeguarding their industries against
any depression which may follow the close of the
European war. This conference is interesting
evidence that the countrys business leaders

to arise when the world resumes its work-a-day
tasks.
The prosperity which the United States now
lows by virtue of its enormous export trade is due
partly to the fact that its great competitors
engrossed in war that they have little time
for the productive arts of peace. Their capital and
energy are absorbed in efforts to destroy the enemy
and to sustain themselves. Great Britain, it is
true continues after fashion her business as
world trader. but even she is sorely handicapped;
and as for Germany, her foreign commerce vr-
tuaIy has ceased. But when peace returns these
nations will redouble their efforts to win and TO
hold oversee markets. Not only will the United
States sell less Europe than now, it will also
counter the sharpest rivalry known in other
parts of the world Necessity we'll as ambition
will drive the present begerents to exert their
most vigor and resourcefulness in the markets of
Latin-America and the Orient.
The United States must be prepared betimes for
that supreme contest if it is to hold its own. Our
turn their exports into other channels when the ex
traordinary demand from Europe ceases; they must

An Example for Mr.. KitChin.

Congressman Page, of North Carolina, and Con-
gresham Sherwood, of Ohio, both Democrats, have
shown the courage of honest convictions Finding
themselves hopeless disagreement with the Presi
dent on issues involving the nations character and
security they have announced to their constituent
cies that they will not be candidates for reelection
In effect they have resigned rather than embarrass
their party by running again when they could not
give its leader whole-hearted and conscientious
support in an hour of grave crisis.
CONGRESSMAN Page believed that a resolution
warning Americans not to travel on belgerent lin
ers should be passed. Congressman Sherwood be-
lived that plans for strengthening the national de-
lenses were unnecessary and wrong. We cannot APP
prove their judgment, but in the circumstances we
must admire their sincerity. Their views are OPP
posed to those of the Administration, TO those of
their party's rank and file and also to those of the
majority of thoughtful regardless of political
Affiliations. But they have come candidly forward
and surrendered the Office which, in consistency,
they could not ask to mold for another term.
In this course there is none of the treachery or
petty politics which the Bryan-Bernstorn conspira
tors have shown. Every member of Congress is en-
titled to full freedom of opinion all issues, but
no member of Congress has right to pretend to be
a Democrat and fight the Democratic Admnistra-'
ton when the Administration stands for the party's
conscience and the country's conscience
Mr.. Page has set honorable example for his
North Carolina colleague, the Hon. Claude Kitchin
who titular leader of the Democrats in the House
but who, strangely enough, has opposed every
measure which the Administration has advanced at
this session of Congress.

pleasant place for those with whom he comes into

And the world abounds with people whose

/ was sharply reminded of this the other day,
on reading a remarkable tale in recently pub

called 1.-The Defective and it dealt with the life OF
a man, Orville StackwOod, reared in an institution
for the feeble-minded.
AS a small child Orville had been placed in the
it was taken for granted he must be mentally de-
icient Actually, his mind was sound enough, and
in time developed to normahty.
But he remained in the institution until he
reached manhood. because his relatives continued

One day, however, medical friend forcou his re-
lease.
As a matter of fact, Orville reluctant to

The New Secretary of War.

II may be taken for granted that in selecting
new Secretary of War President Wilson used the
utmost discretion. The place is always among the
most important in the national administration, and
now it is peculiarly On the War Department
will rest in large the task of carrying out
whatever program of military preparedness Con-
gress adopts; that alone calls for high executive
ability Furthermore, the immediate future of our
foreign relations is so uncertain that
tell what emergency day may bring forth. The
fact that in these circumstances the President
chose Mr. Newton ID. Baker, of Cleveland, indi-
Gates that Mr. Baker is well fitted for the respon-
sble post. AS mayor of Cleveland he proved his
efficiency and strength in constructive reform. As
a lawyer he ranks among the ablest members of
the Ohio bar and indeed, is of national distinction.
He is IN cordial agreement with the Administra-
tons policies both regards matters of defense
and foreign affairs. II is noteworthy that he was
offered the SecretaTyshp of the Interior when Mr..
Wilson making up his cabinet in 1913. The
President evidently appraises him highly, and in
so weighty an appointment the President, we may
be sure, knows his man.

Apropos of the British restrictions exports
of jute and burlaps from India, the New York Com
uerciaI remarks:
Cotton bags better than jute bags for
all purposes including bags for sugar, grain.
cement etc, but they usually trihe
dearer If American exporters forced to
use cotton instead OF burlap for bagging, it
will add substantially TO the consumption OF
:. raw cotton and help home industries TO that
extent. The bsa- bag made is the seamless
cotton bag woven in this country, and a steady
foreign demand for il might be stimulated if
foreigners became accustomed TO il now"
In the autumn and winter OF 1914 when divers
plans were afOot to relieve the staghatiOn of the
cotton market. enterprising merchants in Atlanta
started a movement TO encourage the use of cotton
in place of jute for baggng. Substantial results
ensued. Many manufacturers and distributors in
the East and the West tried cotton bags for ship
ping purposes and found them much more satisfac-
tory than jute. AT the same time Southern buyers
insisted that as far possible their goods espe-
cially such commodities grain, feedstufs, sugar
and coffee, he shipped in cotton containers. The
good work thus begun has gone steadily forward
and now. as the Commercial suggests. foreign as
well as domestic demand for cotton instead of jute
bags may be stimulated.
