pause occasionally to pay it the slightest tribute due an or ganization whose work is well performed.
 No news service has attain ed so high a standing as the Associated Press. It is an ex- ample for old world services, which have long been tainted with advertising. It's method of gathering and disseminating the news of the greatest war in history, under greater hand leaps than have ever been en- countered through the exercise of press censorship, has com .mended itself to every newspa- per editor, and it is a tribute to this vast organization that has violated no confidence nor attempted to embarrass the the United States or it's allies in distributing news of the greatest moment but which, if published, would injure the na- tion's cause.
 Yet the Associated Press men are on the job, alert as always, and with an organiza- tion behind them more efficient than ever. No sooner had the war staff in France permitted 1t to be announced last week that Americans were on the firing line than the Associated Press had a full and graphic story on the cables, presenting those little details which give a news dispatch its enduring value. And this is only one of a thousand rattling good news dispatches which have come directly from the fields of bat tie to the dinner table in an incredibly short time.
 Americans are approaching the value of this great associa- ton, which not only is argus eyed, but which sees clearly. It's reliability is an asset no less valuable than it's effici- ency. Its great aim-to pres ent the news accurately, i'm partially and quickly-has made all the attributes of the world "official.

matter of bringing fort individ- ual initiative. And our nation al organization-in proportion as we build up a national or ganizatiOn-will prove super for because so many individu- als in all ranks-too much not being demanded of them-will give more than is demanded.
 Again the Germans have produced an efficient govern ment. But they have produc- ed it by physical, mental, and moral compulsion of the indi- IVidual. The state is everything, it shapes the very thoughts and aspirations of the people. As a result the state is worship l ped, not only for what 1t is but also what what 1t is not. The state can do no wrong-at least abroad. At home 1t may not be omniscient, but it is Om- lnipotent. It is fate; resistance is inconceivable, revolution an outWorn theory. How can the great bulk of citizens develop either courage or intelligence in their attitude to such a state?
 The democratic governments of the world also have been as suming vast industrial func- tions since the War-and 1t is possible that some of these functions will be permanent. But these activities are not based on any state doctrine taught the people by govern ments. When the people have felt need, the state has been their servant to supply that need-whereas in Germany it is the people that are the ser wants of the state. In America 1t is our state, and we are fighting to show not only that it can do everything that the German state has done, but can succeed where autocracv has failed.
 This is what we are fighting for. However humiliating it | may be, we did not seriously aim at the maximum of nation al efficiency in government and industry in time of peace. Only the frightful punishment and curse of war could bring the democratic peoples to ex- ert themselves to the maximum as nations. Not only are we obliged to do our best now to remove every national weak ness. The enemy gains still more from the baseness that has fingered among us-the be- trayal of our own democratic principles.
 We are fighting, then, not for what democracy was at its worst, but for what democracy can be at it's best. No; this is not a negative war. It is Q war to advance democracy And the only way we can ad- vance democracy-even in wal
 time-is to develop it. Only | Tn this way can we administer
 to the enemies of democracy {
 lasting physical, mental, anc
 moral defeat.

The War: What Against, What
 For.

(By William English WaIling)
 We are fighting for America and against Germany. But even military autOcracy does not dare to defend massacres on the mere ground of nation al egOtism. The German rul- in@ class organized its vast propaganda solely to convince the world, including the Ger mans, that it is fighting for principle. And the consider able development of that pro paganda is chiefly due to it's positive elements. The Ger mans tell us they are fighting to spread "kulture," scienti- fife efficiency and organization state socialism.
 We are fighting against the effort of autocracy to spread at the expense of democracy. We are fighting to prevent militar- ism from committing success ful aggression. We are fight ing against war, against the return of barbarism. What are we fighting for?
 Why rest with the statement that we are fighting against war and preparations for war. Is 1t not Infinitely more inspir- ing that we are fighting for that ceaseless improvement of the relations between the na- tiOns which can not fail to lead toward the federation of the world?
 Why say we are fighting merely to defend democracy? Are we not fighting to spread it? We can not spread it by means of the machine gun. We do not issue an ultimatum to the German people: You must accept democracy. But we do see-and say-that as long as autOcracy continues to exist we shall be obliged to wage some kind of warfare against it.
 But the German people may adopt some deceptive compro- mise that is neither autocracy nor democracy. This we in tend to prevent, but We can prevent it only by demonstrat- ing to the Germans and to all the world that democracy is superior in war, in diplomacy, Tn industrial technique and or @aniZation, in the handling of racial and other minorities that we lead in educating our selves as to the issues of war, in the formulation of just terms of peace, and in willingness to sacrifice the smaller for the larger good.
 We are fighting to demon strate the superiority of dem ocracy. But what democracy has given us chiefly so far has been individual opportunity In the lack of national organ ization this opportunity has been little utilized for the ma. tional welfare.
 We are fighting to develop a superiority where Germany has thrown down the challenge We have to beat her in hel chosen field, the development of industrial technique under the leadership of government We shall not soon excel her as to thoroughness, which means long preparation and often co ercion or subordination of tht individual. But we shall ex eel in the far more importan
