AN ALLIED WAR BOARD.

/ II an allied war board is the out
come Of the conference called to con-
slider Italy's problems, the defeat of
the Italians will not be without some
lrecompense.
How did Austria win her victory
over the Italians? It was won by
German assistance. German troops
co-operated with the Austrians. The
Austrian Emperor was at least
nominally, in command. Austrians
were using German munitions and
German artillery. The Austrian and
German armies are to all practical
purposes, one.
Can anyone imagine General Cad
orna leading English. French or Am
erican troops. or General Haig send
ing few divisions to General Pc
tain? They might conduct stimuli
taneous campaigns. but never have
the forces worked together as one
army.
Italy's disaster has brought home
the necessity for more concerted ac-
tion. The armies Of the Allies must
be organized as one great force, If
victory is to be won.

"THE SMILE ON THE FACE OF
THE TIGER.

Two maxims Of New York politics
have received confederation from
yesterdays election.
One is that you cannot beat Tam
many with divided opposition, and
the other that New York will not be
good" for more than four years.
Tammany may not be able always
20 control a majority Of the votes Of
New York city, but within the mem
DRY Of the present generation, II has
never failed TO control a plurality
when three or more candidates were
in the field. Despite the fact that It
offered a candidate who was an alb
solute nonentity before the election;
who was unknown outside his own
apartment building; and one whose
record both as a lawyer and a politi-
clan was ripped to tatters by the OPP
position, Tammany comes smiling
through the campaign with an over
whetming plurality, and almost a
majority OF the votes.
The other maxim that New York
can't stand law enforcement and eff
ficiency in government for more than
four years is probably the answer to
the puzzle. Any electorate that would
defeat a man of the calibre Of Mayor
Mitchell deserves the return of the
Tiger, hungry after being kept away
from the flesh pots Of city govern
ment so long.
Disappointing as is the defeat of
Mayor Mitchell. even the return Of
Tammany, is preferable to the cleo
ton Of Hillquit, and there is some
consolation in the Unexpectedly poor
showing made by the Socialist cam
didate. Gang rule of New York is a
local issue. and the biggest city wish
ed such rule on itself and alone will
suffer. But the election of HilIquit
would have trumpeted to the world
that the biggest city in America was
opposed to the war, and chose for
mayor a man who openly refused to
buy a Liberty bond, and who pro-
claimed that he stood for an immed-
late peace at almost any price. With
the united SUI port Of all the pro-
Germans in New York, the more
radical and unthinking Socialists,
and all the disgruntled and disaffect-
ed of the swarming East Side, he
was able to poll but $4,000 votes,
and ran a very poor third. Nor can
the Socialists take much comfort
from the big increase in his vote over
that given Charles Edward Russell.
1t does not represent a gain in Social
ist strength. but a rallying Of all the
unassimilated elements Of the Am
erican melting pot.
New York alone will suffer from
Hylan's election. The entire country
would have suffered from HiIlquit's.

Other Mems Views
An Editorial That May or May Not
Square With The Forums
Opinions,

The New York World: It was
President Haverstein of the Imperial
bank of Germany who said a year
ago that when a nations debt has
become so great that the interest
charge equals or more than equals
the excess of production over con-
sumption, that nation has become
bankrupt. He further stated, while
protesting that it could never come
to pass, that when Germany's debt
reached 100000, 900, 900 marks it
would be on the verge Of bankruptcy
with q yearly interest charge Of s.
900, 000,0 marks.
The British Chancellor of the
Exchequer now says that the German
reichstag has voted war credits of
400, 900, 900 pounds, or $4,000, 600, 900
marks, exclusive OF loans to allies.
These credits have practically all
been realized through funded and
floating obligations while the pre-
war debt Of the empire was $780,
100000 marks. Herr Haverstein's
verge of bankruptcy is thus within
a billion marks of the fact.
What an autocracy, gripping a
whole people and all their work with
an iron hand, can do in overriding
all such considerations is beyond cal
culation. But Germany is now viz
tually bankrupt and faces repudia-
ton.

ing this coal shortage has faith
in soft coal and although he
makes it plain that Ignite and
other soft Goals will not take
the place of hard coal, he also
states that the softer grades will
go long way toward relieving
the conditions. Ignite can be
used in a great many places
where people think it cannot and
Dean Babcock is making the
people see this and use Ignite
wherever possible.
The shortage is felt most Sc
verely in the eastern part Of the
state which. under normal con-
ditions, depends upon eastern
coal, supplied through western
lake terminals. For some time
it has been difficult to deliver
coal at these terminals in large
quantities and the rapid increase
in the demand of the northwest
has been greater than the coal
supply.

The Devil Writes To
The Kaiser
DECIDED by Eugene H. Blake
of the Vigilantes.

Internal Palace, Hades.
My dear Kaiser:
Don't let the war get on your
nerves so! I notice you seem woF-
ried since the United States came in.
Remember that there are more
ways to win the war than with bull
let's. The allied nations used to buy
5000, 900 bushels of American wheat.
But since we have forced the Eur
opean farmer from the furrow to the
trench, America must sell her allies
0,000,O 900 bushels of grain while
they fight us.
l agree with you that our propa-
ganda has been effective in the
United States. Millions Of Americans
still believe that you did not start
the war. Our Bernstorff was a corker,
Wilhelm.
Here's a plan. While your Hinden-
burg feeds more faithful Germans to
Haigs cannon, and your oldest boy
feeds another half million German
boys to the French cannon around
Verdun to save his reputation back
home, let us make q food thanking
movement in America.
I'll keep enough lazy Americans
out Of the fields to let crops rot;
tempt them to buy more than they
need Of what Is gathered; cook more
than is necessary, and serve as big
portions as they did in times OF
peace.
will make the American house
wife waste food in her kitchen so as
to take it out of the soldiers mouths.
While we destroy American boys in
Europe I win make the United States
nation Of food -slackers.
Just leave 1t 20 me, Wilhelm and
don't worry
Faithfully your friend and ally

Forced To Believe
English Labor Leader Convinced
That German Atrocities
Were Planned.

Those apologists for Germany who
are still loath to believe that the
atrocities committed by their SOL
diers were more than individual
crimes may be impressed by the
statement just issued by ]. A. Sed-
don, one Of the most influential
English labor leaders and a militant
pacifist and opponent Of militartsm
in every form up to the time OF the
war. Mr.. Seldom was the president OF
one of the largest British labor
unions and was elected to parliament
by the labor vote. This is what he
says:
When accounts came to England of
outrages committed by German
troops against Belgian civilians. most
Of US at first did not believe them.
Even though the Germans were our
enemies, we refused to credit them
with actions so vile. We thought THAI
possibly a few individual acts had
been exaggerated and magnified. We
did not propose to blame the whole
of a nation for the excuses of few
of its members. We gave Germany
credit for some respect for the
humane conventions which she her
self had accepted and promised to
observe.
But before long we had to believe.
We learned on proved evidence that
the horrors we had at first refused
to think possible were only a part
and by no naeans the worst-of what
was going on. Many Of the deeds of
the Prussian army in Belgium were
SO terrible that they could only be
whispered from man to man. We
found that the reign Of terror in the
conquered territory-the burning Of
villages, the shooting OF peaceful
priests. schoolmasters and doctors
| as hostages, the outraging of young
girls and married women, and the
wholesale destruction Of homes-was
no chance excess Of individuals, but
the systematic and deliberate policy
of the German government, prepared
for in advance, and carried through
without justice or mercy.

PROVING ITS WORTH.

When meatIess and wheatIess days
were first discussed, the average
citizen viewed them with either a
good humored tolerance, or with
actual impatience.
This attitude is rapidly changing
to one of complete conviction of their
necessity and their value, and under
meath the raillery which greets them,
there is a firm and growing convic-
ton that they are a vital necessity.
If the entire country observes a
meatless day once a week, it means
the saving of one-seventh of the
meat consumed in America. That
would mean enough meat to feed at
least 100000 people.
To label it hardship or a sacri-
fee is Of course. sheer piffle. 1t is a
very minor inconvenience, If it can
be called that. and instead Of hard
ship it will work an actual benefit to
ninety per cent Of those who observe
1t. Physicians are divided on the ad-
visibility Of an absolute observance
Of vegetarianism. most doctors hold
ing that a mixed diet is better for
the human organism, but few doctors
deny that the average man or woman
eats too much meat.
The meatless day is one war meas
ure that ought to be maintained, and
it wouldn't work any great harm if
it were increased to two or three.

RICH GIVES CREDIT TO
THE FARMERS IN REPORT
Commends Them For Bond Pur-
ehases-5usiness Of Ninth Re-
serve District On Sound Basis.

The monthly report OF crop and
business conditions in the ninth fed
eral reserve district, by John H.
Rich, federal reserve agent, follows in
loan. Nothing could be more destr-
"A notable event Of the month was
the successful completion of the Sec
ond Liberty loan campaign in the
ninth district. At this date, 1t Is
evident that the total subscriptions
will aggregate $130,000.0O0 with
possibility that they may go con-
portant service the northwestern
states have ever been called upon to
perform for their government was
adequately, energetically and salts
factorily discharged. The minimum
allotment of 05,00O,000 has been
substantially oversubscrfbed.
Farmers Buy Freely.
"An important and significant
feature OF the campaign was the lib
eral buying of bonds by the farmers
in all but few districts, and the
very greatly increased number Of in
dividual subscriptions, as compared
with those recorded in the first war
loan. Nothing could be mode desir-
able than to have bonds Of the Unit
ted States government widely scat
tered in the hands OF the people. This
result has been so thoroughly well
attained that even school children
are bond owners. while the bond
sales have been on a satisfactory
scale even in the remotest farming
districts. Second Liberty loan bonds
sold well even in the districts where
the 1917 crop was poor, as is indtcat-
ed by the notable over-subscription
in North Dakota and Montana. This
is a satisfactory indication that
there is a considerable amount of
money in the hands of the farmCA
in spite of adverse crop conditions.
Business throughout the district
is on a sound footing. Wholesale and
retail lines are active, and indus
trial concerns have large orders
ahead. Flour mills are running to
capacity.
THE effect of continued high
prices is beginning to be apparent
in slight change in the character
of retail buying. Both city and
country customers are showing
somewhat more conservatism than
before, and are buying carefully
against actual necessities. It is
probable that sales OF some classy
of goods falling under the head of
luxuries will be decreased, and lead
ing merchants expect conservative
holiday trade. Purchasers are meet
ing their obligations promptly and
collections are excellent.
Banking conditions show COM
paratively little change except for a
slight hardening Of the already very
firm rates"
