strike back. II is dangerously far east
in Russia Moving onward into the
Russian interior would greatly en-
danger Germany's front on the west.
America, England, France and Italy
have immense reserve of
every sort. Germany has not. Japan
and Russia are presumptive sources
of reinforcement to England and its
allies. Austra-Hungary is a source
of weakness to Germany, and Bull
garia m Turkey are liabilities rath-
er than assets
Prussian organization and T%eutonic
rlanpower form the sole real defense
that remains to Germany. England,
France and Italy are masters of land
and air in the west. Their heavy ar
tillery outnumbers Germany's by five
to one. The destruction and capture
of 100000 Germans in France, which
Joffre declares will finish the war, are
being lone by the Anglo-French Of
fensive. These are pushing forward
slowly but surely. 1t is only a ques-

for the war may end as suddenly and
Unexpectedly as it began, when the
French and British armies will have
reached the Rhine.
The Germans, whenever they re-
treat. delay their enemies advance
through having destroyed roads and
devastated the land. 1t takes at least
a fortnight to max the country pass
ible again. But the delay does the
Germans no large or lasting good.
They are soon driven ack from their
new ground. The masses at home see
his and also begin to realize that
Teuton submarine can lot win the
war. The morale of the German arm
les is hurt by the successive retreats
and defeats. Germany now wages de-
fensive war in order to obtain a good
position for future negotiations for
peace.

much pacifist? How much merely c.
structive? How much dictated con
sciously or unconsciously by selfish
interests?
These questions must present them
selves to Americans when they find
gentlemen in both houses declaring
that such a measure threatens our
liberties, shrieking "Dictatorship!''
and drawing awful pictures of the
wreck Of constitutions and laws that
must follow action as necessary to
the successful prosecution of war rs
the creation of great armies and ma
vies of sea and air and levying of
heavy taxes.
BY some people Abraham Lincoln
was accused of dictatorship and by
others was openly urged to assume
that role as Washington was. Lin
coins reply to the first was his oath
of office and to others, as in his mem
orablc letter to General Hooker, that
if the new commander of the Army OF
the Potomac would give the country
victories the problem of Dictatorship
could safely be left to the president
Of the United States. What was true
then is true now.
We are soon to send a million men
to France under the supreme com
mand of the president. Controlled by
the same hand, u warships with tens
of thousands of bluejackets aboard arc
on duty in every sea- We are voting
and subscribing billions of dollars to
be expended within a year, largely al
the presidents discretion. He has
been and is to be given extraordinary
power over manufacturing, mining and
transportation, and in many cases OF
prices. But he becomes a dictator
only when it is proposed that he BE
armed with authority to force upon
the gain and provision markets vast
supplies of food wickedly boarded, to
restrict speculation, to lea sternly
with monopoly and in case of neces-
sity to fix reasonable prices.
There is a dictator more dangerous
than any to whom obstructive con
gressmen in their impassioned elo-
quence have referred, and his name
is Hunger This grim %potentate des-
troys peoples as well as liberties. He
has killed patriots. d%ethroned mon
archs, put an end to dynasties, scat
tered valiant armies and beaten down
the gates of cities mt f%ortresses. His
allies are Suffering, Disease and
Death. and his conquests are the bit
terest known to history.

VALUE OF ORGANIZATION
lBoise New Freedoml

Several weeks since The New Free
dom called attention to the fact that
the Boise-Twin Falls-Wells railway
could be built by the same efforts by
local people that was put forth in the
sale Of Liberty bonds. In a recent
issue The Capital News reflects this
opinion in a general way as relating
to all enterprises. If the power of or
ganized effort is taught by the great
war then humanity will have learned
its greatest lesson.
The fact is that the railway referred
to could be built at the earliest mo-
ment that the people should turn TO
such Notwithstanding only the
necessities of the war-if all the sub
scribers to the Liberty bonds in the
region affected would make the bonds
the basis of the railroads capitaliza-
ton. 1t would not require that all
should subscribe, even a reasonable
number would assure the success of
this great enterprise, so essential 10
the development of a veritable empire
of potential wealth.
The necessities n the %urgencies
of the war have forced the people Of
the warning nations to the most col
lossal organizations ever known to the
ace The lesson should be acted up-
on in time of peace. While nothing
can ver repay individuals for the ter
rible sufferings and h%ardships of the
past three years, if the lesson of the
power of organization can be brought
home to all the people. it will mark
the era of mans greatest advance
ment.
Here in Boise The New Freedom
proposes to keep pegging away with
this idea confident in the long run
some result will be accomplished. let
us no longer wait for some Eastern
George to do it, but lets all dig down
into the pocket and put over an enter
prise which will tend to the material
advancement of the city and state.

CRUSHING THE GERMANS
(Spokane Review

Germany, no matter what Russia
may fail to do, can hold cut only a
year more at the most. Such is the
judgment of the best informed and
most competent International finan-
ciers in America, England and France.
The problem of good exists in Rus
STA and works against Germany. The
millions of soldiers in the Russian
ranks can not walk from the trenches
and toward distant bases of supplies
of food. They have about as much
food at the frCnt as they would have
at home. Germany knows that if II
should attempt a movement against
Russia the Russian armies would

the names of three responsible citi-

Each applicant must be examined ply
sically at his own expense by a rep

physical report forming part of the

since the special object of these

men OF exceptional character and
proved ability in their various occu-
patlons. While it is desired to give
1ull opportunity for all eligible citi-
zens to apply, no man need make ap-
plcation whose record is not in all
respects above reproach and who does
not possess the fundamental charac-
terlstics necessary to inspire respect
and confidence.

The above cut gives a very fair representation of the new typeset-
ting machine installed in the TIMES office ten days ago at a cost of
more than three thousand dollars 1t is the very latest and most COM
pete machine of the kind In the world, and more than doubles the ia
cilties of this office for newspaper production, as well as for all kinds
of job work.
We assume that such an addition to the plant of a Twin Falls in
stiution will meet with approving recognition by people generally and
by business and professional men in particular. And with this in
mind, beg to invite attention to the special type provided for law
briefs and all legal and commercial printing and to ask that we be
remembered as the necessity for such work arises.

When a mar forgot to subscribe for
Liberty bonds and was unavoidably
detained when just about to contrib
ute to the Red Cross, it is perhaps
fair to assume that he has arrived at
an efficient system for putting off the
costs of the war on other people.
