Slackerism.

1t is curious to hear slackerism de-
nounced with such violence in WASH
ington. Not that it shouldn't be de-
nounced. We believe that the fiabby
young oaf who seeks to evade his
duty to his country should be given
a touch of the Prussian whip: that any
indifference to the call Of the nation
should meet with Spartan severity.
There are thousands of would-be
slackers in the United States. Some
of them are just moral incompetents;
but there are otheres whose. case is
somewhat different. Until war broke
over the american scene like a thun-
derclap out of a serene sky, the ma
tion had been treated to an overdose
of pacifist philosophy. 1t had seen
Woodrow Wilson reelected on the
slogan, He has kept us out of war"
It had heard the President iterate
and reiterate that the great duty of
the United States was to maintain
the fabric and the processes of peace
in the midst of a world-confagration
1t heard the gospel of peace from
scores of responsible rostrums, and
pacihsm had taken deep hold of a
good portion of the country.
Is it reasonable to think that this
mental condition can be changed in a
few months? Is 1t not possible that
thousands of young men were con-
verted to the Bryan idea. and that
even the fact of war has failed to
change them? Such a generalization,
Of course, can apply to only a small
minority of young men. but does it
not account in some degree for slack
erism? Three years of education in
the blessings of peace" has held
many minds to loose, easy, thought
defying platitudes. 1t is not necessary
to trace slackerism to German prop,
aganda; it can be brought much near
er home than that.
In all countries the draft is an ex,
ceedingly difficult thing. 1t took Great
Britain nearly two years after war
broke out to get around to it. It
should be remembered that in 1864,
when the nation faced division and
ruin, the disgraceful draft riots oc-
CURED in New York-the worst and
bloodiest piece of lawIessness of which
the Metropolis has ever been guilty.

A BATTLE SONG.

Awake, ye sons OF freedom, all,
And grid ye for the frayl
From sea to sea Coiumbia's call
Us echoing today.
Arise, and with firm heart and true,
Your strongest efforts lend;
A whole world, menaced. looks to you
Its safety to defend!
Arise, and as one man uphold,
Across the land and sea,
The flag whose stars and stripes un-
fold
A glorious liberty.
To you the suffeslng nations cry
For succor and release;
Within your hands forever lie
The potencies OF peace!
Awake. ye noble onesl AwakeI
And where strong tyralts reign,
Such righteous bolts Of vengeance
break
Their strife shall be in vain,
Fireee are the forces of thy foe,
Their veins are tralled with-hate;
Rise ye, and all undaunted go
Where those, their victims. waitl
Columbia calisi '@ro arms. To arms!"
With valor make reply.
Let no weak thought Of wars alarms
Within your bosoms lie.
Coiumofa's call rings through the land
That all the world may be
Delivered by your valiant hand,
SAFE for democracy

Washington and the Heat.

Washington has commonly become
known as enc of the hottest cities in
the country despite the fact that vital
statistics prove conclusively that our
city is far above the average when
comfort In summer time in concerned.
Nc one can deny that during heat
waves such as is being visited upon
US at this time, the temperature in
Washington is proportionately high.
but on examining the lists of casual
ties resulting fen the heat, we find
that very few Deaths occur in this
city as compared to other cities Of
like size. In fact. the death rate
from he: in Washington falls far
below thu a number of northern
cities.
The reason for this is obviously
because of the cleanliness OF the
city, and its wide parking srcas;
because of the fact that our build
ings are separated by ample spaces
which have been devoted to parks,
and because the tenement life is un-
known here, Washington is particu
Iarly favored as place, of summer
residence.

SIXTY OFFER SERVICE
TO Home DEFENDERS
Railroad Men Show Interest in
Local Organization.

Sixty pledges to join the Home De-
fense Rifles were received at an Or
ganization meeting for railroad en-
ployes last night In the Terminal
Railroad Y. NJ. C. A. rooms, third
floor of the Union Station. Nearly
125 men were present at the gather
ing.
In opening the meeting @. H. Win
slow, secretary of the Terminal Rail-
road branch of the Y. NJ. C. A.,
spoke on the need of a home defense
rifle corps, and used a clipping from
Tuesday mornings Herald to show
what type of men are needed.
Col. NJ. A. Winter, one of the
prime movers of the organization,
gave an account of the rifles. q,
Other speakers at the meeting were
Major o. w. Phelps, Capt. d. w
Thayer. Lieut.-CoL E. p. Hazleton,
Capt. Alpheus Winter. W. ]. Wilson
superintendent of the Washington
Terminal Company, and Capt A. B
Hays, judge advocate of the Home
Defense Rifles.
While the Y. NJ C. A. orchestra
was playing several selections, re.
freshments were served and cards for
membership in the rifles were passed
around. A vote of thanks. was unani-
mously rendered to the organizers.

undoubtedly persuaded President FL
liot that a younger man than he should
be called to the aid OF the New Haven
company. In returning to the North
ern Pacific President Elliot goes to a
system which was in a sense his first
love. He might not have accepted the
New Haven company's offer had It
not been that his family felt that it
would be OF healthful benefit to ex-
change the rigors OF a winter in the
Northwest for the more eouable cli-
mate of Boston. The possibilities
within the reach of the Northern Pa
ciio and tho future development OF
the vast country through which it
passes always strongly appealed to
President Elliot, and the people of
the far-reaching region which the
Northern Pacific feeds have never
failed to recognize his services to
them when he was president of that
transcontinental line. They will well
come him back. HOLLAND.
The Washington herald., 1917-08-02
he Drive N FIanders.

Field Marshal Haig Is approaching
the crest Of the British Offensive in
the West for 1917. He Is making his
supreme effort in Flanders. striking
after an intensive artillery preparation
that marks the elimination Of the
whole theory of frontal attack. The
result. TO date. is promising. More
than this cannot be said. Substantial
success can be assured only when the
third-line trenches are pierced. ana
held before the inevitable stubborn
series OF counter-attacks. Until these
trenches are taken, until a genuine
dent appears in the German line, the
success of the operation will be in
question.
There is no doubt that the Germans
are feeling a certain shortage of men
on the Western front. The first-line
trenches are stripped. They are held
only as outposts. and it is quite easy
for a sustained assault to capture
them. Even the second-line trenches
are manned only to 30 or 40 per cent of
their former strength. When the frst-
line trenches are taken, reserves are
hurried to the second. and a stiff fight
with machine guns is made; sometimes
counter ofrensives are improvised from
the seeond-line il they promise sue
cess. But when the enemy captures
the German second-line' trenches. his
real trouble begins; he finds the
Boche in something like his former
force and number directly in front of
him. 1t has been the almost unvary-
ing answer on the Western front. that
offensives starting out with, an i'm
pressive show of strength have been
pulverized when they strike the Ger
man third-line. This line has more
than once been pierced, but never
with suf lcient force to 'breal
through" or to create a salient.
Should !eld Marshal Haig score a
substantial. success in the new drive,
new pressure in the direction of Os-
tend. the German submarine base, will
follow, and a large slice of Belgium
will be reclaimed from the Hun. Spec
ulation of this sort. however, may well
be held IN allegiance until the first
fruits OF the British offensive are seen
more clearly.
The Washington herald., 1917-08-02

The cOmmlssary Of the Navy De-
psrtment has given notice that in the
future only the families Of those men
IN the navy who are stationed in
Washington will benefit by their
cheaper prices. as the families of those
men in foreign service will not be al
lowed to buy from the commissary
store. Thus the man on the firing
line will be deprived of his one per-
quisite as a seaman, while the man
who stays at home will derive ell
benefits. This is a condition that can
stand rigid investigation and readjust-
ment.
