cess, He Says

The Aero Club of America made pub
lie Yesterday the following letter from
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt:
81 heartily congratulate the Aero
Club of America on its efforts to Sc
cure q great aerial government pro-
gramme here in America. This country,
which gave birth to aviation, has SO
far Jagged behind that now, three years
after the great war began and SIX
months after we were dragged INTO H.
we still have not a single machine
competent to fight the war machines OF
our enemies. We have to trust en-
tirelv to the machines Of our allies.
GAS YOU well say, this should be the
fifth arm of our army, and it should be
made a long-reaching weapon, TO use
effectively, If conditions at any time
arise that will enable it to strike the
deciding blow. -, /.
at NAV be utterly impossible to
etrike that blow without thoroughly
effective air force, and it is utterly i'm
nossible to improvise such force. IL
has been objectionable folly on our
mart as a nation that for three years,
with this great war staring us IN the
face we have absolutely failed to pre-
mare for it, and our folly has been at
least as marked as regards aviation as ,S
in anv other field. No one can tell
how long this war will last. -,
oIf we are true to ourselves we Will
make il last Just as long as is neces-
cary in order to secure the complete
overthrow of the Prussianlzed Ger
many of the Hohenkollerns. Therefore
We should at once begin to prepare on

"The Jeffersonian" said on July II:
"If Congress can first create state OF
war by written declaration which no
one is permitted to dispute and can seize
millions of men and women and subject
them to involuntary servitude, civil and
military, the Constitution of the United
States becomes a despised scrap of

Greeks Cheer King
AS He Takes Oath
Alexander Formally Ac-
cepts Crown--Venizelos
Acclaimed by Crowds

ATHENS, Aug. (Delayed).-King
Alexander to-day took the oath of Office
amid great pomp and ceremony. Pre-
ceded by a troop Of soldiers, the King,
in a carriage drawn by four horses,
proceeded from the palace to the hall
Of the Chamber of Deputies through
streets lined with cheering citizens.
Reaching the chamber. at 1851
o'clock, the King was met by parma
mentary committee. the Council OF
Ministers and the clergy and escorted
to the legislative hall, which was pro-
fusely decorated with flowers and ma
tional flags. The diplomatic corps was
present in full dress and the chamber
was filled with deputies, ministers and
guests.
The King wore the white uniform OF
a general, with numerous decorations
His entrance was the signal for cheers
which he bowingly acknowledged. As
he remained standing to take the oath
Premier Venizelos was at his right and
the President of the Chamber at his
left. The oath was taken upon Bible
handed him by the officiating Bishop OF
the Greek Church. AS this portion OF
the ceremony was concluded the hall
rang with cries cf Long live Alex,
anderl" "Long live the Constitution!
and Long live Venizelos!"
King Alexander then read the speech
from the throne on the future attitude
OF Greece toward the belligerent

Two Varieties Of
The Attack

Two varieties of the propaganda are
well illustrated by "The Socialist
News" of Cleveland, and "The New
York Call" "The Socialist News" uses
a bludgeon. In its issue of May 26 it
said:
"The Liberty bonds this country is
huckstering are apt to be worth so
much per pound as waste paper at the
end of the war, together with similar
bonds which Europe has been selling
during the past three years.
And:
at is not to be wondered at that the
ruling class, through its tools in
Washington, put the CONSUMPTION law
on the statute books TO bludgeon the
people into fighting, as they bludgeoned
the people into the war. They may yet
learn that a people unwilling to fight
cannot be made to fight The. history
of the Civil War CONSUMPTION law may
he repeated in the year 1917"
"The New York Calf is the in
sidious kind. Hiding behind screen,
it deftly suggests "bloody reyolu-
ton" in its issue for July % 1t SAID:
"Might we venture to observe, with
out being accused of advocating the
thing we predict, that assassination
among the kings and mighty ones on
earth is not unlikely to become both
frequent and fashionable in the near
future? That is, of course, if thicken-
ing rumors portend the future reality
of the events rumored. 1t may
be true that there will be something
doing along this line in the near fut-
ure. though, let us say right now, to
escape the wrath of Roosevelt, that we
condemn beforehand, and even abhor
and detest and denounce, all assasslna-
ton or attempts at it. But,
nevertheless, the rumors are here, ana,
much as we denounce and condemn 1t,
it is an unfortunate fact that there is
such thing as assassination. as Mr.:
Roosevelt knows himself from personal
experience.
"But again protesting our moral OPP
position to these hideous conditions,
NAV we venture to observe that for
some obscure reason it would appear
that there is not sufficient murder in
the world at present? =. We shall
not attempt to explain this phenome-
non. So we will merely observe in con-
clusion that if these hideous rumors do
crystallize into realities of the future.

The e f en- ant Postmaster
Thomas G. Pattenl says that the
cartoons and text for the magazine,
constituting as they certainly do,
a virulent attack on the war and
those laws which have been enact
ed to assist its prosecution, may
interfere with the success Of the
military forces Of the United
States. That such utterances may
have the effect so ascribed to them
is unhappily true. Publications of
this kind enervate public feeling at
home, which is their chief purpose,
and encourage the success of the
enemies of the United States
abroad. to which they are generally
indifferent. Dissension within a
country is high source of comfort
and assistance 70 its enemies: the
least intimation of it they seize
upon with jubilation. There cannot
be the slightest question Of the
mischievous effects of such aglta-
ton upon the success of the ma

Evans Widow Settles Suits

Mrs. Carrie A. Evans, who claimed to

Growers Association, has settled her
six suits against his estate for $3.50.
This became known through the filing
of the appraisal of the estate in the
Surrogates' Court.
Mr.. Evans died in Philadelphia on
MAY 25, 1916. He made no mention of

smaller than expected, the gross value
in the appraisal being placed at sac, SOB,
