A Va Banko Policy

| WASHINGTON diplomatic circles have
w learned that Germany is contemplating
a radical change in her whole war program
The Kaiser. on careful study of the magni-
tude of Americas preparations for the war
summoned Bethmann-Hollweg. Hindenburg
and others to conference. where he is said
to have pointed out with characteristic en-
phasis. that decision must be reached before
America could bring her enormous power to
the aid of her allies.
Hindenburg is reported to have said that
he was ready to stake the whole issue of the
war on the present defensive and tho work
of the submarines. He professed to believe
that the entente could make no appreciate
impression on the German lines in France in
one or FIVE or ten years, and the Germans
30 far as possible. should maintain this ring
OF steel In its present position.
The younger men in the conference, headed
by Bethmann-Hollweg, opposed this view on
the ground that the German people were be-
coming restless. under the terrific sacrifices OF
the war that the U-boat success was now
doubtful and that va banke policy Of making
one or more supreme military efforts OF
smashing through the enemy's line, either on
the eastern or western front, should be under
taken at the earliest possible moment If
such efforts failed Bethmann- Hollweg was
convinced that the entente could not very
much longer refuse peace on the terms Ger
many would be justified in Offering It Is
said that this latter view met with such favor
by the Kaiser and n majority of his con-
ferees that the entente might expect its
adoption.
The conferees were governed in their deci-
ton as much by the fact that they then knew
no separate peace with Russia was possible
as by their knowledge of Americas prepare
lions. But they were not then aware that
American destroyers had safely conveyed an
American army through the submarine zone
to France after one more battles with
U-boats.
This achievement has made a va banke
policy on the part of the German army more
OF certainty than ever. If an army can he
conveyed across the Atlantic to Europe food
in sufficient abundance can be conveyed also,
and the moment food is needed more than
soldiers. it will be sent instead England can
not now be starved, ard the German govern
ment now knows it beyond the shadow OF
doubt There is no balm in Gilead for
Germany on the sea. and she turns her eyes
! toward another Nerdun with the supreme
desperation of the Hohenzolerns 1t is like
the soul OF a man fighting to stay with his
corpse, this Germany fighting to stay with his
arrogance. his unauthorized Prussianism his
megalomania Of kultur and his yaunted
superiority TO other peoples.

Exe1nptinc Married Men

p RoTEsTs are frequently heard from single
men OF draftable age against what seems
to them 10 be determination on the part
OF the government TO relieve all married men
from military service. These young bache-
lors cite the fact that thousands of men be-
tween the ages Of twenty-onc and thirtv-one
have recently married for the apparent pur-
pose OF escaping the draft But the protests
are not we'll taken. Tho married man as
such. is not automatically exempted from mil
tary service Even the man with dependent
children is not perfunctorily relieved Every
such person must make a convincing case
before the appeal exemption board He
must show that there is no independent in
come upon which his family might live; that
his wife has no adequate means of her own.
and that he himself claims exemption on
these grounds. This case must be made
publicly and afTlrmativcly.
Even so, it is quite evident that the GOV
ernment will seek TO avoid the burden which
would rest upon il after the war If An army
OF widows and orphans were left dependent
as a result of wars casualties And the
soundness OF such a policy is not open 10
question. The unmarried man should re-
alize the obligation which the government
would assume II the draft were made in
discriminate.

Farm Loan Banks a Success

4 .LTHOUGH the Federal farm loan banks
~ have been in operation only few weeks
the successful working Of the plan is no
longer involved In doubt. Up to July
total OF sll,661,9o5 in hrst-mortgage loans
TO farmers at per cent interest had been
made by the twelve Federal land banks in
the districts established. These loans were
negotiated through go farm loan associa-
tions chartered by the Federal Farm Loan
Board. In addition to the loans made, nearly
$lQ0.000,000 has been applied for by the
twelve banks. but has not yet been approved.
Gratifying features OF the report are the
wide distribution of the loans, practically
every section of the country being repre-
scented. and the size Of the average individual
loan approximately $4,000. This shows that
the money available is passing into the hands
OF farmers who will make it Immediately

The south's Martial Ardor

IF some Of the Northern papers are to be
! believed, the South has within the last forty
years lost much of its martial ardor, and
General Leonard Wood is down here. or up
here, tankling with much success the task OF
reminding it. The militia of the South, 1t is
true, has not been trained as it has been in
the North, and for the simple reason that
there has been little domestic need for the
services Of our citizen soldiers. But we have
here to-day the same sort of men we had at
Kings Mountain, Guilford Courthouse, the
Cowpens Bull Run. charlottesville and
Gettysburg. and the Germans will believe it. ii
WE can catch them in the open.
