SPY EFFICIENCY

We learn today from Admiral Sims that the German gov
eminent was advised at least four days in advance of the arriv-
al of the American destroyer flotilla and were thus enabled to
place mines i'll the path of the American vessels.
We learned yesterday that the spirit of unrest in Russia
had reached the point of arson and the use of the bomb, accom-
panied by rioting. And there isn't anybody with one eye
half opened who doesn't know that the German secret service
or spy system" has been been the most active agent in foment-
ing trouble there.
We learned last Monday that three of the seven active
agents of "Labors Peace Council in the United States who
were under indictment for conspiracy against the neutrality
laws of the United States were convicted and that the jury
disagreed as to the other four. Among the other four were two
former members of the United States congress and one former
attorney general of the state of Ohio. And these two eX-cOn-
gressmen were not "eXs" at the time of their alleged Offense.
They were on Uncle Sans payroll and sitting as members of
the l~aw-making body of this republic. The indictments still
stand.
It also came to light in the course of the tral lust closed
that William Jennings Bryan, while acti"~ secretary of
state: while at the head of the presidents cabinet: while at the
head Of that department which deals with our foreign relations,
gave cordial endorsement to the aims of the peace" Organiza-
ton in which congressman Buchanan and Fowler were so
active. under the guidance of an officer of the German navy.
While no fair minded person will accuse Mr.. Bryan of hav-
ing guilty knowledge of the criminal activities of these arrant
scoundrels. the fact that he gave them countenance and en-
dorsemcnt is to his everlasting discredit. He knew them, or
should have known them. as disreputables. He went to an
amazing extreme in giving sanction to their propaganda. If
his intentions We're the most excellent, his judgment was the
most atrOciOus, for the leader of the conspiracy, Won Rintelen,
was a captain in the imperial German navy.
Great Britain found at least one member of the German
secret service occupying a seat in the British parliament, and
it is not to be wondered at if Germany, through her spy system,
has gained several seats in the congress of the United States.

BE A BONDHOLDER

On next Tuesday there will be approximately ten million
young men, the flower of American manhood, who will walk
up to the registrars office and present themselves for military
ed to Europe-and it will reach the kaisers trenches in spite
are entering the war, all of them between 81 and 80. And Ger
many and Austria and Turkey will know that behind these ten
million men from 81 to 80 are fifteen or twenty million more,
ready to back them up and to take their places in the trenches
and elsewhere when necessary.
These men who are giving their services without protest
for the protests are too few to be counted-are entitled to the
best this country can do for them. They should have the best
equipment we can provide. Their health and every protection
that can be thrown around them should be our first consider
the government has made it possible for him to help, and to
help himself while helping his country.
We have heard, in certain circles, from time to time, ana
thema and reckless condemnation of the bond holder. Why?
Because the man who hurled the anathema had not himself
been prudent enough or industrious enough. or foresighted
enough, or sufficiently sOlctOus for the protection of those
who have a right to his protection, to make himself a bond
holder. There is hardly an a~ble-bodied man in America who
cannot become a %bondholder today, and in doing so render to
his country a patriotic service.
Any man with ten dollars in his pocket can become a bond
holder, the banks and thousands of other business concerns are
offering the Liberty bonds issued by the government, without
profit to themselves or without reward for the labOrs they per-
form. They are buying them themselves.
Millions of men and women have become bondholders
within the last three weeks. They all hold their heads just a
little higher and have a feeling within that is good for their
health, good for their morals, good for their families, good for
their country.
that ten million Americans have registered to fight kaiserism;
let us flash the news a few days later that the first Americap
war loan is hundreds of millions over-subscribed.
Be a b%ondholder.

Poultry in cold storage that cost the grabbers 33 cents a
pound. including interest and so on, is now down so low that
offers of hardly more than 90 cents a pound are made for it.
There is so much other stuff coming into the markets that the
consumers are going to let high priced shortage stuff alone.
OF eggs alone the receipts in Chicago last week were 10000
cases, compared with $4,000 cases a year ago. If everything
is going to turn out equally well the food spectators will be-
come the money losers. and no one will have either pity on
them or mercy for them.

PLANNING A TRAIL OF TROUBLE

They intimate now hat Germany will give up everything
else if it is permitted to control a strip of land through the
southeast of Europe and through Asia to the Persian gulf. She
will settle on that basis. But could the civilized world that
wants some security of peace permit a merely military autocra-
cy to sit athwart all the routes of commerce between the east
and the west? And what would become of all the intervening
peoples. such as the Slavs of southeastern Europe? Are they
all to be sacrificed to the Teutonic mogul for the sake of hav-
ing peace in the rest of the world? A peace that is based on
a sacrifice of others is never a good peace.

In the early days of the war the ears of American tourists
in London were bOmbarded with hopeful expressions of the
United States joining forces with the allies. These were dark
days in the British capital. German armies were moving on
Paris with irresistible speed. The battle of the Marine was yet
to come. British hearts were fearful and hope turned to the
west for succor. Long delayed hope now approaches realiza-
ton to the full. Units of the American forces yet to come carry
to the British metropolis living evidence of the help prayed for
and their welcome fairly measures the depth of national graft
tude.

The government is not asking you to give your money, but
merely to lend it, and the government agrees to pay you a
fair rate of interest, three and one half per cent, without taxes,
which is the equivalent of about four per cent. Surely you can
afford to be a patriot at such a rate. And it is your duty to
do it.

FOR PACIFIST REFLECTION

The federal government has recently made official an
nouncement of the fact that our army is to be equipped with
Enfield rines-rines vastly inferior to the Springfield arms.
The government acknowledges this, but it has a reason for its
choice. It can get the Enfield rifles whereas it cannot get the
Springfield rifles.
Why is this, do you ask? Let us tell you. It can get IN
field rifles because the private concerns in The United States
that have been making munitions for Europe are equipped TO
tGn them out. And it cannot get Springfield rifles because
there is no equipment for turning them out in any consider
able quantity.
With war staring them in the face hourly for two wears
and a half prior to its declaration, our rulers absolutely neg
iected to provide facilities for equipping an army. That they
are able to do so now is not through any foresight or any
preparation on their part but because certain corporations here
had gone into the war supply business. Had they not done so,
The United States government today would have been in the
decidedly embarrassing position of having an army on hand
with no guns for the men.
fact that it was impossible with the existing equipment to turn
number a war would demand, and he likewise showed that it
for the work and then some months additional TO turn out the
rifles themselves. But he was squelched as an alarmist.
p""sident Wilson cooingly declared that we were "too proud
to fight, but that if we ever changed our mind on the matter
we were 'amply prepared" Josephus Orangeblossom Daniels
slapped us on the national back, so to speak. and lovingly
lisped that our navy was the finest in the world, bar none. To
be sure, there has been a breaking of ground since that time,
but it has been a shifting of mental altitude rather than a DIV
steal preparation for conflict. We have entered the war who'll
ly unprepared for its tremendous burdens. AS Colonel Roose-
welt so patty put it, we have waited until we can see the whites
of the enemy's eyes before thinking about buying a gun.
