lives that their ultimate triumph may
be surer. and their present condition
better. They have gone forth TO war
for O great clause and noble principles.
We who. have stayed at home must
find other ways TO serve the same
cause. We shall fail them who have
not failed us II we do not make the
moment Of their departure the begin
ming Of a better dedication to national
service and TO the simpler, smaller but
useful tasks that lie at our hands.
And above all we should give them
that encouragement which they de-
serve, the encouragement which comes
from the consciousness OF a united
nation sharing in their suferings,
sharing in their privations and strlk-
ing down every unworthy suggestion
Of an ignoble peace, as they are fght-
ing every effort Of brute force 10 con-
quer on the fleld.
We owe IL TO those who have gone
10 the front and are to go TO the front
20 see TO It that no weakness, no sell
fishness, no inpatience at our own
hardships or our own dlscomforts
shall lead US TO weaken the arms OF
those who fight for us, or increase the
tasks OF those who are TO die that we
and all eve love may live. not merely
I'm peace but in the enjoyment Of that
liberty which has come down to us
from other generations.
More than fifty years have passed
since this country saw its manhood
go forth to battle in such numbers as
are now going. The greatest sacrifice
that has ever been asked Of the Amer
lean people by a united country is now
being asked, not merely Of those who
go, but also Of those who stay. We
have proclaimed brave principles and
noble ideals, and many hundred thou
SANDS Of our sons have gone or are
going to make good those principles
on the battlefield So far .he response
has been clear and unmistakable; and
yet much Of the sacrifice will be in
vain, much Of the effort useless, II the
nation itself II those who remain at
home, do not serve with the same
loyalty and the same self-abnegatlon
as those who have gone.
The best Of our manhood has re-
sponded. The finest Of our youth, all
that represents the romance and the
chvalry Of the boys who are men in
spirit, but yet unspOiled by years, Is
on the march. Such a sacrifice can
only be borne if It Is not made In
vain. It will be made in vaia II we
who are left behind falter. Those who
go will hold their line-we can trust
them for that. Those who meet the
enemy will not yield; we who have
seen their faces In this city are sure.
Are they equally sure Of u.s. Can they
trust US as we know that we can trust
themg

WASHINGTON. Sept. 4.-Uncle Sans
navy experts are not combining their
attention solely to combating the sub
marine. With an eye to the less imme-
diate future they have given the prob
lem Of building submarines consider
alton second only TO sinking them.
As a result, the United states has
made more headway in submarine de-
velopment, IN the last four months,
than she would have in years OF peace.
This applies not only to rapidty Of
construction, but to Improvement
which VIII put our submarines ahead
OF Germany's.
Submarine construction has been
speeded up to the limit. Both the num-
Der and size have been increased. Large
submersibles Of 1909 tons and over,
with a wide cruising radius, have been
laid down and plans made for giant
submarines up to 1900 tons.
So important have the naval authori-
ties held submarine construction TO be
that repeated shipping board requests
to suspend It, so shipbuilders might
help build commercial vessels, have
been refused. The work has been sub
ordinated only TO building destroyars
and other patrol boats for the submar-
inc zone. These were needed for i'm
mediate warfare. A changed condition,
however, by no means impossible, II

on the day following the publication
0f Mr. Wilson's message 20 the Zone
the people OF this city should see pass
ing in review before them the soldiers
OF their own State, who are. 20 carry
70 France the flag and the spirit OF
America. It was the right thing that
there should be brought home to mill
lions Of people the fact that ell the
noble words which Mr. Wilson had
uttered derived their power and their
meaning from the readiness OF Amer
lean citizens to give their lives 60
make them good.
With the Presidents message we
have passed TO a new phase. We ap-
proach the moment when America Will
take up her part Of the burden Of saw
ing civilization from German barbar-
ism and humanity from Teuto1ic force.
All the words In the world would be
Idle II 1t were not for the fact that
they were backed by brave and loyal
men like those who marched yesterday
TO eive to them reality and strength.
With Mr.. Wilson's message the pros
pect OF immediate peace, Of premature
peace, is dissipated. There are weary
months OF fghting and Of suffering
ahead for the world before the goal
con DO realized. and we are now to
pay the price Of those brave and lofty
Ideals which we have proclaimed from
the beginning OF our national life, Of
ten on the battlefield.
With the passing Of the New York
division to camp, which Is but @ pre-
lude TO foreign service, the war must
take on for all of us a sterner and a
more vital character. Hencsforth. for
long time perhaps, it viii not be

debate. II must be those whom we

WITHOUT DISARMAMENT BY GERMANY THERE CAN
BE NO PEACE

IN HERE is only way TO end the war-that Is to end
the German auiocracy. We think there are few
Deawareans who fail to appreciate that fact.
There is only one way to end the German autooracy.-
that IA to disarm it,
The men who above all Others know what constitutes
the strength Of the German autocracy are the Germans
who have fought IT, They the small minority Social
ist faction formerly led by Lebnecht now headed b
Ledebour and Haase.
These men have presented basis for peace in the
plan they have adopted their platform It is not sur
prsins that the very first thing IN their program is dis
ornament,
And disarmament IS the very last thing the German
lutocracy VIII agree TO-
The only basis Tor peace in the Popes recent pro-
posal is disarmament
Disarmament is the keynote every one Of President
Wilson's utterances peace and the issues OF the war
But actual disarmament is meant-not q promise to
disarm from government that has shown it keeps no
promises.
That Is why President Wilson viii continue TO demand
that the German auocracy give security in the shape OF
evacuation Of France and Belgium the instant cessa-
lion OF submarine warse before any peace conference
meets If that security is given peace might come to-
morrow on the understanding that dlsarmament--no.
merely The formation OF leagues OF contracts but
actual screppng Of the navess 70 take place

would be hard put to to survive even as social orna
ment IN Germany. The whole pan-German menace OF n
Alddle-Europe empire Berln-to-Bagdad would evan
oraie as the armed forces Of Prussia melted away
Disarmament is the key 70 world peace Peace will
never come until Germany agrees to dsarm. and give
