SECRETARY BAKERS PREJUDICEs.

ment from charges of inefhciency and delay. If he
is able to talk convincingly his success will
prove that mighty promising attorney was

It would be wholly unfair viewpoint which
failed to see that great work has been accom-
.plished by the war department under vast diff
culties. At the head of the department is the
secretary who is responsible and accepts that
responsibility even when it involves the turn Of
criticism directly upon him. That is proper
attitude But it will not strengthen confidence
in Secretary Baker if it appears that his preju-
dices are being made paramount to military
opinion to the consensus of his colleagues IN
the cabinet. 1t would not be Just to say that
Mr. Baker acts impulsively Or without honest
belief that he is right. But he has said and done
things contrary to advice that have worked i'll.
He was put at the head Of the war depart
ment before Mr.. Wilson was convinced that
war with Germany was necessary and long be-
fore Mr.. Wilson determined that peace with
victory, instead of without it, was the only
safety. Mr. Baker had a reputation for hon
esty and executive ability; this reputation there
is reason to believe he has lived up to as war
secretary. He has also a record as peace
man. This attitude of course he must necessar-
lily have modified to meet the exigencies of the
situation in which he found himself. But only
a few days ago the secretary of declared

NO PLACE HERE FOR PEssIMIsM

With recent utterance of Secretary Daniels
thoughtful Americans will generally agree. 1t
is part Of the German plan as he pointed out,
to spread the poison of pessimism among her
enemies the feeling that they cannot win the
war and the sooner they cease to try the better.
We must be on guard against this insidious
propaganda. Our war-worn allies look to us
for boundless courage and optimism: and more
to be feared than Germany's submarines or
cannons is the danger of pessimisIn, the posi-
biity of losing heart and allowing ourselves to
doubt for minute that right will triumph in
this war
This was well said and needed to be said at
this time We must fight this war with brave
spirit, indomnitable, sanguine Of success. A
test of manhood is unconquerable morale, is
faith that never alters, is courage that refuses
even to entertain the idea Of defeat. It is men
and nations whom no obstacles can daunt and
no reverses discourage who achieve
Our nation has no place for pessimism.

Germany has disastrous explosions well
as Canada and the United States, though she
attempts to keep such matters secret, as we do
not. The great chemical factory Of Greisheim
on the Main near Frankfort has just blown up,
causing vast damage and loss of life The estab-
lishment covered fifty-four acres, had twenty
eight big chimneys and was one of the greatest
munitions factories in the world. Besides ex-
pIosives and nitric, sulphuric and other acids,
much Of the poison gas used by the Germans
on their battlefronts was produced there. AS
Germany has no alien enemies out Of jail the
explosion may have been the work of a visitor
by airplane or possibly some citizen who thinks
the war has gone on long enough.
