Brand Whitlock.

German knavery has forced Brand
Whitlock out of Brussels. His work
there for the helpless Belgians is
ended.
There is no need to recount the
gallant work he has done. 1t is known
to the world. The name of Whit
lock will be treasured in Belgian his
tory for generations to come; few
will stand above it.
His leaving the soil now polluted
by the Teuton grip will be mourned
by millions to whom his name, along
with the American Commission for
Belgian Relief, stands for food and
succor. But the United States, toll
Grant as it has been for the break
ing of solemn engagements" for pet
ty prosecutions and almost unspeak-
able chicanery, cannot in self-respect
keep its Minister longer in Brussels,
even though the Bclgians cry for him
to stay
There were many contributing an
noyanccs, but the crowning act OF
infamy which forced the hand of the
United States was the torpedoing OF
the two Belgian relief ships last
week. This crime. overshadowed as
it has been in the public mind by
the sinking of American merchant
men, has caused the bittcrest kind OF
feeling in official Washington.
Whitlock leaves, but the relief work
goes on, under the auspices of the
Dutch government. The responsible
ity of the United States is no less;
rather, is it greater. And when the
truth is bluntly told the American
people as to the pitifully small and
insignificant sums they have given the
Bclgians, in comparison with what
the English and others have done,
they will blush for shame at the
thought
The fact is that the nation is only
becoming aroused. In its sluggish
prosperity it has wasted much senti-
mentality upon the lucklcss people
whom the Germans have all but de-
stroyed, but is only now achieving
the will to give and the will to self
sacrifice for the duty that beckons
to it.

Galleries and Pie.

Another sacred American institu-
ton seems about to fall before the
analytical onslaught Of science. De-
spite the hallowcd traditions which
cling to the national dessert, pie is
threatened with ostracism. For the in
dcfatigable scientists in their search
for calorics have pounced upon the
crusts and film and found what they
sought.
According to them pie contains far
too much nourishment to be used as
the fag end of a meal Restaurant
pie, according to the experts, con-
tains from 300 to 400 calories and as
5000 calories is the amount allotted
to a whole days heat energy. pie
forms a very substantial percentage.
And with cheese on the side the
calory rate is alarming, so they saw.
Thus the business mans lunch, should
it include the popular combination.
aided and abetted by a glass of milk,
is really more substantial than the
usual dinner. Pie lovers rallying in
defense suggest eating three pieces
for each meal and thus eliminating
the calory bugaboo, but they are

The New Peril.

When Congress meets, sinister
cabal is going to try to tic the hands
of the President.
1t will aim to make the United
States as harmless as sucking dove
so far as real warfare on Germany
is concerned. 1t will attempt to make
the part America will play in the war
a purely cut-and-dricd affair.
OF course, there will be an implied
insult to the President and to the
nation in every move of this sort that
is made. The work of the obstruc-
tionists will be skillfully masked; that
much goes without saying. They will
work in the guisc of pacihsm; under
the prctcxt of humanitarianism; un-
der any logic that promises-to to palsy
the national will.
The German propaganda-a spade
might just as we'll be called a spade
will try to block the movement for
financial assistance for France and
England; will urge the greatest
amount of domestic preparedness,
and in that cause try to restrict cx-
portation OF munitions and supplies
10 the allies; will ask, 'in the name
OF humanity" that the United States
confinc itself 70 the defense of its
shipping and not attempt co-opera-
ton with the British and French
fleets.
When this fatuous gabble starts
there will be only one thing for the

its blade" strike in a way to win the
decision Europe has prayed for these
many months.
