Aviation's Small Toll
Only Eight Fatalities Have Resulted
From Americas Air Program
to Date.

The Committee on Public Informa-
ton has issued the following:
There have been to date, in the
six and a half months Of the war, a
total OF seven accidents, resulting in
eight fatalities in connection with
the whole training program for
Americas air army. OF these fatal
tiles two were caused by men on the
ground being struck by the propeller
Of a machine. The Aviation section
has been gratified that the fatalities
have, not been more numerous, es-
pecially in view of the hundreds OF
absolutely new and inexperienced
pilots who have been taking the air.
In the selection of aviators es-
pecial attention is given to RESPONSE
bility OF character and to general
athletic suppleness. The system OF
training is designed to prevent the
occurrence Of accidents through in
experience or carelessness. Eight
weeks &are spent in the preliminary
ground training in the theories of
flight. Before the men take the air
at all they are given careful instruc-
ton in running machines along the
ground to accustom them to the var
ious controls. Their early flights are
made under close supervision with
an, instructor; and later, when they
first ny alone, they are under strict
rules for safety.

An Editorial That May or May Not
Square With The Forums
OninfonR

The Milwaukee Wisconsin: People
impatient for results have conceived
many plans for the rapid ending Of
the war, among them participation
in the western theatre OF the conflict
by the Japanese. The Japanese, they
think, could throw a large army
against Germany and carry on the
work OF invading Galicia and East
Prussia that the Russians began.
These civilian strategists do not
make much OF the difficulties which
distance would lay in the way Of
this plan, and this does not consti-
tute all Of the argument against it.
At the Rotary club dinner in New
York city last week, Doctor Iyenaga,
director of the East and West News
bureau, selected the subject for dis
cussion, and began by remarking
that those who advocate the dispatch
of Japanese forces to Russia ignore
the psychology OF the Russian peo-
pie. The Japanese, observed Doctor
Iyenaga, desire their American allies
to remember the differences in race,
language, habits and diet between
the Russians and the Japanese. Be-
sides, there is the question OF cost
and Japan is still burdened with
the heavy debt of the war with Rus
sia. The speaker went on:
Difficulties in the way of trans
portation Of troops are almost in
surmountable. The trans Siberian
railroad is paralyzed. IL we wanted
to send troops by sea, where would
we get the ships2 But there are
many better ways for Japan to serve
the allied cause. Our part Is
thoroughly understood throughout
Europe, and we want it understood
here.
The Japanese lost no time what
ever, after the war opened, in strip
ping Germany Of valuable territory
In China which she had seized and
fortified and garrisoned as nucleus
Of future expansion in that part Of
the world. Since then her main use-
fulness TO the belligerents has been
az q manufacturer Of explosives.
Certainly there IL no reason for
criticizing the Mikado's government

fallen under her domination, depends
on how much of the country the
Bolsheviki can deliver.
Representatives Of the Bolsheviki
government have entered the Ger
man lines to negotiate an armistice
That means that Germany will exact
what terms she desires. Her desires
will be limited only by what it will
be good politics to take.
With her people eager for peace,
and with the government itself seek
ing a cessation OF hostilities provided
conditions are left about in status
quo, which would mean q decisive
German victory, 1t will not be good
policy to "rectify the boundaries" of
Ftassia and Germany too severely
The release of German prisoners in
Russia, the removal Of the necessity
to protect the eastern border, and
the moral victory OF separate peace
with Russia, would be ample recon-
pense for Germany. and she could
we'll afford to restore the old border
for the political effect it would have,
in showing her willingness to make
peace. Poland will be in effect a
German province when the war ends,
unless the German government Is
overthrown. 1t is being systema-
tically and thoroughly Germanized
now. The Polish population is be-
ing exterminated by massacre, star
walton and deportation. Germans
are being placed in control of the
land, the industry and the govern
ment Of Poland.
An armistice between Germany and
the Bolsheviki government would be
distinctly German armistice. A
separate peace would be distinctively
a German peace. Germany will grant
just such terms as she considers il
good policy to grant. and she will
keep those terms just as long as it is
to her interests to keep them. II
Germany wins the war after such a
peace with the other allies, she could
within five years pick a new quarrel
with Russia and take whatever part
OF the Russian republic she desired
or cared to police.

What The War Means
To Us

Contributed. by Emerson Hough

Education).
The victory Of Germany in this war

complished her dream Of a German
Mittel Europa IL her peace terms be
Embellishments that Germany will
have carried out the program OF war
which she had fully prepared before
she was forced" to begin the war.
II means that war itself Is to justify
| everything for every nation In the
future, provided that war Of however
interruptions sort shall prove sue
cessful. 1t means that might Is to be
right forever: that efficiency, no mat
ter how ruthless, is to be the touch
stone of human success hereafter;
that dishonesty is to be the best
policy.
The success Of Germany means
that hundreds OF thousands and mil
lions of our boys-many Of whom go
grudged or grudging into this war
Eow-wili be forced to go into another
war, yet more bloody, within a quar-
| ter OF a century from this date. It
means that America. left alone. will
have at q. future time to fight a Ger
| many yet more high blown, yet more
arrogant in military preparedness and
military organization. 1t means that
America will have to pay the expense
not only. OF that war but of this war
which, 1t is a perfectly open secret,
has been the intention OF Germany
ever since we sided with the Allies
and perhaps even before that date.
On the other hand. the defeat of
Germany today means that We shall
not be obliged to fight her at later
day. It means a better world for all
the nations Of the world. 1t means
that the Nightmare Of Fear may bO
replaced by the Dream of Peace for
all the nations of the world. It means
that the high seas, always open to all
the world, shall yet again be open and
free, as was always the plan Of all
the peoples.
The defeat of Germany today
means that in the future our women
and girls shall not need to lie down
in nameless dread of what may be
their fate. It means that our prop
erty, our savings, our accumulations
shall be safe for our own uses and
for the uses Of society and humanity.
IL means that human ambition in this
and all the nations Of the earth shall
be allowed to follow its natural
working out and not be crushed in
, infancy.
Why should we defeat Germany
now-why must de defeat her? In the
first place, because 1t is cheaper and
easier. In the second place, and far
more important, We must defeat her
because it is right to do so.

From The Navy and Merchant
Marine: Harry Merrill Hitchcock, q
former ensign in the United States
navy, processes to report faithfully
what American naval officers are
saying among themselves when ne
suggests that; the way to clear out
the wasps' nest of German sub
marines is to attempt the capture of
Helgoland. That rocky little islet of
the North sea, fifty miles from the
mouth of the Elbe, and squarely in
the center OF the widening path by
which most of the raiders go out to
sea, is the obvious first point of at
tack.
HelgoIand il within reach from
fairly deep water, and IL we can
once demonstrate upon II the pos
sibility Of a successful offensive from
the sea, IL will become an advanced
base from which we could push our
destroyers and airplane patrols up to
the very mouth of the KieI canal,
and pick up the issuing German
raiders before they reached deep
water.
We have no means of knowing in
detail just what are the defenses of
Helgoland. Germans say they are i'm
pregnable. ~
81 "A OnlIeu SLaIeS naval OutCer says,
however, Every fortress is impreg-
nable-until somebody comes along
and takes it."
Certainly the defenses of Helgo-
land are more formidable than were
those Of Mobile Bay. Certainly the
development OF the submarine, the
improvement of the mine, the i'm
mense advances in the range and
power of artillery, make the task
now confronting the allied fleets
far greater than Farragut's task. But
are not their resources for the task
at least as much greater in proper
ton? The modern dreadnought is
far better defended, both internally
and externally, against the modern
mine or torpedo, than was Farra.-
quits Hartford against such tor
pedoes as sank the Tecumseh. The
Confederate ironclads and torpedoes
and Davids in the Civil war had as
fearsome a grip on the popular i'm
agtnation in the north as the Ger
man submarines and mines have
everywhere now.

A SUPREME WAR COUNCIL.

Geater efficiency in handling the
tremendous war problems Of the ma
ton, should result from the or
ganization Of what is. in effect If not
in name. a supreme war council.
The Council OF National Defense
has decided to hold weekly confer
ences with Secretary McAdoo Of the
treasury; Chairman Hurley of the
shipping board; Fuel Administrators
Garfield; Food A dmani sit ma or
Hoover, and Chairman Willard OF
the war industries board. The Coun-
ell OF National Defense is composed
OF Secretaries Baker. Daniels, Lane.
Houston, Redheld and Wilson, rep
resenting the departments of war,
navy, interior, agriculture, commerce
and labor respectively.
With Secretary McAdooj there will
be seven cabinet ministers on the
new board. and four, others, making
"a council Of eleven. Every depart
ment Of the government. which is
directly and vitality concerned with
the actual conduct of the war, viii
be represented.
The one great criticism of the
governments conduct of the war
has been that its activities were not
and that too much Of
the burden was carried by President
Wilson himself. The President has
surrounded himself with some of the
real leaders OF business and indus
try in the nation, but 1t is claimed
that they have not been left free to
exercise their initiative. because OF
the Presidents tendency to keep all
the reins Of government centered In
his own hands. This, it is claimed,
has resulted in a lack Of proper CO.
operation and coordination between
the various departments
The new supreme war council is
designed to answer this criticism
and remove the cause Of it.

ANOTHER ABSORPTION.

While the federal fuel administra-
tor is tracing down the mysterious
absorption of a difference Of $40 be-
tween anthracite and bituminous coal
prices while the coal is being trans
ported from the mine to the retailer.
II might investigate also the shinkage
Of the coal itself from long tons to
short tons. and publish its findings.
The state fuel administrator will
ask the federal fuel administrator to
ascertain why it Is that the difference
between anthracite and bituminous
coal prices is $40 at the mine, and
only so cents at the Head Of Lakes.
It's a fair question.
1t is also a fair question to ask
why a ton consists OF 2,240 poundG
at the mine, and 1000 pounds in the
coal cellar. The Forum has asked
this question before. but in the last
six months has not seen 1t answered.
At present prices, 24o pounds Of
hard coal is worth about $3.50. 1t
would be interesting to know who
gets that $3.50 a ton.
Can the Kaiser plead hypothyreosis
when he finally is brought before the
bar by an outraged civilization?

PRIORITY FOR
COAL and COKE
Fuel Administrator Would
Relieve Countrywide
Fuel Shortage

washington, Nov. SO.-A general
priority order giving coal and coke
shipments the right of way over 9TH
or freight movement, was requested
yesterday by Fuel Administrator Gar
field, to relieve the country wide
shortage.
The situation, already critical has
been made worse by the coming Of
cold weather, with its consequent
slowing up Of railway traffic. In ask
ing the, order yesterday Of Robest s.
Lovett, director Of priority, DR.. Car
field suggested it be put into force
as soon as possible, and that its
operation be continued until the
crisis is over.
Coal, under the priority desired,
would move over the railway lines
with foodstuffs, shipments OF which
are subordinated to the transporta-
ton Of actual war supplies. At pres
ent coal has no general right of way
and must take its place along with
general freight. The order would
provide too, for priority rights for
empty coal and coke cars, which
would be returned to mines and
ovens as soon as empty.

shells to their one" He has become
so we'll versed in the situation that
he takes artillery engagements for
granted. Correspondents are send
ing out long accounts Of trifiing in
cidents of camp life; writing colu-
INNS about camp mascots, and how
the men occupy their time, and what
they think of France and what
France thinks of them.
These correspondents are the pick
OF American newspaper men, the
equal OF any in the world. They do
not send such matter from choice.
They know what their readers want
as we'll as the readers, but they are
not allowed 10 send it.
For example, they have not yet
cabled the exact location OF the
American trenches. although this
fact cannot be a secret from Ger
many since American soldiers have
been captured, and interviews with
them have appeared in Berlin papers.
There is no reason to believe that
casualties have been withheld. The
government has promised that these
will be reported promptly. and 1t un-
doubtedly is keeping its word, but
the American public is hungry for
real news of the men at the front.
Censorship on all the other fronts
has been relaxed, and some leeway is
allowed correspondents, but Ameri-
can reporters OF the war are in the
position they were on other fronts in
the first few weeks of the conflict.
Undoubtedly the folly Of this will
be seen in time. and a more sane
censorship imposed. It is better to
have the regulations too strict than
too lenient, but the people who are
supporting the war should be kept
informed about it just as fully as
possible.
