Hindenburg's Mournful of"

One of the most significant utterances
since the war began was that of Mar
shall Won Hindenburg, esbled to the
newspapers yesterday. The tough and
bluff land fighter pinned all the hopes Of
Germany upon the U-bosts Said he:
''If we hold our ground against enemy
attacks until the submarine war has
done its work the war is won for US"
When the commander OF the land

all talk of victory through military op.
erations and puts an IF" to the prospect
Of the armies holding out until Britain
is starved into submission, there is plain
ly very little real hope Of his subeon-
scious mind. How different from the

PRESSURE ON GERMANY GROWS.
Won Hindenburg must transfer some
of his electives back from the western
to the eastern front in order to meet the
tremendous offensive which has been in
stituted by the new Russian government
The outbreak OF attacks by Russians at
several scattered points over the long
front indicates that the Russian democ.
racy has not been idle during the forma-
tive days of the new government and
that the army has been brought back
into fighting shape as the first step to-
ward the soldity of popular government.
While the German autocracy was con
graduating itself over the apparent dis
solution of the military force of the Pet.

tion, the vigorous regime back of the
new government was striving to confirm

ALGERIA A NEW FRANCE.
Result Of a Century Of Work Against
African Ssyadery

Result Of a Century Of Work Against
African savaaery
After a vast expenditure In lives and
treasure France is beginning TO reap
Its reward from the conquest Of Al
geria. A hundred years ago the north
ern African country was the abode Of
barbarism, and piracy was the princi-
pal occupation Of its people. The Unit
ed States was the first nation to revolt
against the payment of tribute to the
dey OF Algiers for protection" to com
merce, and after a brief but thrilling
conflict the buccaneer chieftain was
brought to his knees.
In 1927 the French took up the white
mans burden In Algiers and after a
struggle Of thirty years subdued the
country. Under the monarchy and the
second empire the government of Al
geria was based solely on force, but the
republic won the allegiance of the Al.
gerians by withdrawing the military
government from all the settled por-
lions OF the country, which have since
been treated very much as IL they were
a part of France, each department
sending one senator and two deputies
to the French chambers. Algerians,
save for a few of the tribesmen I'm the
remote interior. are now loyal French
men, regardless of color, race or re-
ligion. Algeria also supplies vast guam
titles Of foodstuffs and metals to
France.-New York World.

Keep the Colleges Filled.

The probability of the war lasting
some years is recognized by the national
bureau of education. In recommending
that all young men below the age OF
liability to seleotive draft be urged TO
attend the colleges, universities and tech
nical schools, the bureau states that the
instruction received will enable them to
render the most effective service in the
later years Of the war and in the times
Of need that will follow.
Whether or not this probability of
further years of fighting be generally
conceded, it is certain at least that after
the war industry, transportation and
commerce will make a greater demand
than ever before for young men with
trained minds and technical knowledge.
By acquiring such training and know
ledge these young men viii make them.

service prematurely with the eolors,

took my boat when she could get 1t.

A marked effort is being made to raise
the Vermont National Guard to its full
war strength of 2,002 men, and the effort
should be redoubled at once, as the LIST
Vermont infantry, National Guard, will
be modified at national eampground
with the troops of many other states on
July 25. There are scarcely two weeks
left for the completion of the regiment.
Why not send out recruiting officers to
every large place in the state to spur the
men on to the patriotic duty! There is
nothing so successful in recruiting as the
personal appeal TO the individual. That
has been proven satisfactorily during the
present campaigning. In order to awsk-
en- the men to the need of their service
You must talk TO them directly and per.
sonally A score of recruiting officers
sent through the length and breadth of
the state would be a very effective force
in raising the few scores Of men still
needed TO bring the lst Vermont infantry

Not a Makeshift Appointment.

Says this, Barre Times, in speaking
about the successor of Guy w. Bailey as
secretary of state 1--WE can only hope
therefore, that it ia strong man and
not man for makeshift."
We hope so, too. The suggestion that
the governor appoint someone to fill the
office just temporarily ought not to pre-.
vail. The office is too important a one
to play with. A good man should be
selected to take up the arduous and
strenuous work and continue it along
the lines so well carried out by Mr. Bail.

The German air raid on London Satur-
day was undoubtedly an answer to the
allies raid over German territory the
evening before, only the Germans made
the mistake of crediting the Friday night
raid to the British instead of to the
French. The early reports of the two
attacks indicate that from military
point of view the French raid over Ger
man cities was far more effective than
the German attack on London, albeit
there may have been more human casual
ties in the London attack. For their dar.
ing in the air the French are deserving
OF great credit. Such attacks are likely
to bring the war home to the people of
Germany very strongly.
