anything but a dead animal
This is all pure moonshine, no matter
what the professors may say. 1t is idle
70 talk of dictionaries as dealing with "a
literature extending over four hundred
wears of linguistic change" when 1t has
already been pointed out that manual OF
dissection published at Berlin no longer
ago than 1881 bears the title, "Leitfaden
fur Operationsubungen am Cadaver,' etc.
If that is not late enough, there is the
testimonial dated 1905, and signed by Dr.
Friedrich Kopsch, of the Anatomical In
stitute Of Berlin University-a facsimile
of which has been made public. Perhaps,
however, modern German began with the

Put Aliens to Work
ln Editor OF The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: What is to become Of our enemy
aliens?
This question has been going through my
mind repeatedly since | read in the daily
papers a call is being made to-day on the
citizens Of this country, both men and women.
We are now entering upon the census that
is being taken for all men and women from
sixteen 10 fifty. and each and every one Of
them is expected to do his duty. while an
enemy alien has only TO register his name.
By proving that he IS not a citizen of this
country he is privileged TO go about his or
dinary duties in business life unmolested.
having the complete protection Of the gov
eminent, while those who have been born
here and whose forcfathers were born here
have got TO make sacrifices. II seems TO me
that this question should be agitated. and that
all enemy aliens who have been in this coun-
try long enough TO have secured their second
papers and have failed 10 do so for various
reasons should be drafted into an agriculture
army and made TO serve on the farms Of this
country.
| have selected The Tribune to approach
this subject because have been a reader
for some years. and during the past have
found that The Tribune is not afraid 10 agl-
tate any question that is of material beneht

The detitians have long carried on
hopeless struggle with the American peo-

eating bread when cake is just as cheap :!

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: II is an old saying that the spirit OF a
mob is on level with the lowest member OF
it. That spirit may be controlled or coaxed
TO mind the leader when one appears. But
the conglomerate wit Of the rabble is OF the
lowest order.
A democracy Is not unlike mob. The san

When the world war swept over Europe

We had lust come through ten-year milling

And this sensation kept US out OF the war
II has taken our nation of one hundred MILL

Train the Unfit
The Complacently Fat and Flabby
Ought To Be Put to Work

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: These are the days when the fit and
healthy young man is preparing for the most
serious undertaking of his life-the defence
Of his country and the country of his fellow
citizens at the cost OF his life, If necessary.
He is thankful for the fact that he is clean
and perfect in his physical manhood, and
/ hence fitted TO be the protector OF the hard
won liberty of his fathers. He has literally
presented his body living sacrifice, wholly
acceptable TO his God and his country. But
all around him he sees the satisfied smile OF
the fat and fabby individual who is so over
fed and underworked as to be physically use
less as a fighting unit in the army. He sees
| the unconcerned swagger of the hollow
chested habitues Of the poolrooms and the
dance halls, dissipated little rats who could
not walk ten miles in army marching order
TO save their seepless little lives. He sees
them sll around him-the complacently snug
ranks of the self-made unfit, serene in the
consciousness that the recruiting officer will
never take them IL naturally occurs to him
to wonder why il is that these individuals are
relieved from the supreme duty of citizenship,
while he is penalized for keeping himself
physically efficient by being sent to the front
to fight for the liberty and security of those
who have wasted their manhood in self-in-
diligence and easy living.
The vital point is this: A great proportion
Of these men especially the fat and paunchy
ones) can be put into fair physical condition
in short time if placed under enforced con-
ditions of right living. Their patriotism will
never prompt them TO do this without COM
pulsion, although their failure to do so makes
them no better than the prospective recruit
who has the dentist pull some teeth out or the
soldier who shoots himself in the foot TO
escape danger. Why cannot the government
make an effort to fasten on these selfish citi-
zens their share of the burden of the fighting
man? Select those who have no serious or
gsnic defects, put them into training camps.
supervise their diet, send them to bed at a
reasonable hour and make them develop some

soldiers
Those who are wounded in battle are given
every care in order that they may quickly
as possible resume their place in the line. The
man who is fat and short of breath or
anemc and weak from wrong living is in
most cases as good potential soldier as the
man who comes in from the battlefield with
shrapnel splntered bone. He should be given
the same treatment and with the same end in
view. What would you think Of a man who

Indelicate Females

The war is hitting various people IT
various ways 1t is hitting women IN more
ways probably than men; certainly IL Is
touching moro of their established preJu'
dices and customs. On one side OF the
picture we find a reaction like the follow
ING in an inconspcuous item OF the
days news:
Binchamton, n. y June 12-For the
first time in the existence OF the Erie
shons at Susauehanna, Penn, women are
beinp employed to operate drill presses
and 10 work at other mechanical occupa-
tions II is announced that the number
wilI he increased as the men are WITH
drawn for military service. The women
are pIeased with the work and take much
interest in the machines 70 which they
have been assigned.
On the other. comes the following reac-
tion TO the military census now belng
taken of men and women, largely by wom-
en-. pursuant to a law of the state:
To the Editor Of The Tribune:
Sir: However surprised one may have
mand for the service of our women, 1t
would seem that being a woman would at
least entitle US to some delicacy OF feel
ing in the matter Now that we know
that no such consideration for our sex
exists, we most bitterly resent the fact
that we are obliged to register and eX-
pected to give our services. IT, NJ. T..
New York, June II, 1917.
1t had not occurred TO us, and we doubt
il it had occurred to any large number OF
women, that there was anything indellcate
in the governments asking the women OF
the state to register names, ages and other
facts that would determine their duty IN
time of war. But, then, delicacy has for
most of the human race, male and female,
changed vastly its color and purport in the
recent generations. The notion of women
working in overalls at drill press would
have been shocking masculinity in the
1s50's. 1t appeals to most of US now as
common sense and adaptability and pluck
to be proud of. The more of such feml-
ninty the better.
SO, too, with the state CELSIUS. II IL uoeS
nothing else, it will at least bring home to
every woman the truth that the existence
of her government and peace and home
and everything she holds dear is in the last
analysis quite as dependent upon her own
courage and readiness to serve as upon
her husbands or sons. Delicate or indeli-
cate. that is the fact. The sooner the wom-
en- Of America appreciate it the better.

Useless Lying

Carlyle, a devout worshipper OF leu
tonic genius if ever there was one, used TO
saw that the Germans exceeded all other
nations in the art Of crcumstantial lying.
The English, he admitted, were pretty
good in the composition of downright
falsehood, but he held that for elaborate
and highly decorative mendacity the ablest
of them could not hold a candle to their
Prussian rivals.
1t may be so, but if his judgment was
just it is a pity that the German govern
ment has had the misfortune in this war
to hit on so many awkward practitioners
in this peculiarly Prussian art. A few
days ago reference was made to the stupid
manner in which the German Wireless
Press undertook to deny the French report
that soldiers bodies were used by the Ger
mans for the production of fat stuffs, fer
tilizer and food for pigs at the kadaver-
verwertungsanstalten The official agency
was not content to say that the report was
founded on a misapprehension or that 1t
was lie, but went out Of the way, quite
unnecessarily, to explain that the word
Kadaver "as everybody conversant with
German knows, is never used for human
bodies, but only for the carcasses of ami
mails"
One important parsonage, who is sup
posed to be conversant with German, ap-
rarently did not know this. Herr Zim-
rermann, the Foreign Secretary, assured
the Reichstag that the bodies in question
were of beasts, not men-tierische, ntcht
menschlichs kdddver, he said, quite for
getting that it was an official solecism to
employ the word menschliche in this con-
text. But all the little German parasites
in this country seized eagerly on the tip
offered by the Wireless Press and have not
vet ceased to dwell on the monstrous igno-
rance of the German language displayed
by French, British and American editors.
A local paper in the German language,
particularly furious in its repeated de-
mails, has just picked up letter by pro-
fessor at the University of Chicago, who
as a member OF the Verband deutscher
Schriftsteller in Amerika is presumably
an incontrovertible authority. He has
learned that the dictionaries are against
him, and coming in. little late he dlsposes
of the dictionaries with the remark that
dictionaries of modern languages are very
deceptive guides is perfectly
true. But unfortunately the professor is
very deceptive guide himself, for all he
can do is to reterate and insist on "the
fact Kadaver does not mean corpse; but
only and exclusively the carcass of dead
ANIMAL" and again Ito make doubly sure)
