Keep An Eye On Him

It will be wise to keep an eye on Mex
leo.
Carranza's attitude toward the United
States has always been that of fellow
who would like to do something ugly, if
it were at all safe. He has not yet ex-
pressed himself on Zimmerman's propo-
sition to stab Uncle Sam in the back as
an ally of Germany.
II should not be forgotten that he pre-
vented our combined regular and militia
forces from getting his chief enemy,
Villa, upon pain of a union Of all MexicQ
against US.
We still hold to our recent suggestion
that there should be strong home-guard
organization in our border states, New
Mexico. Arizona, Texas and California.
We should not be in shape to have Car
rama jumped on our backs and find the
riding good.

Billiards. Book Gives Us
COld-BlOded Reading

A rather remarkable little book has
been written by Arthur Billiard, called
''Mobilizing America"
II would seem to have been written for
military authorities, alone, if judged by
the matter contained therein and the ad-
vice given.
But il has been published by the
Macmillan company and placed upon the
market.
Billiard tells us some things that we
may have half realized but did not know.
He declares that the ''call of the race
is not strong with us" and that in order
to get together an army in the United
States, we must hit upon some big alb
stract idea which appeals to all the people
and makes Of the war sort of crusade.
He says that about the only big alb
straet idea about which the people OF
America will rally is democracy, which
is clearly known by the impression upon
us made by the Russian revolution. (This
book was published before the presidents
speech, April p
He says that the first business of a
country going into war is to hold a sort
of orihamme high before the eyes of the
people, so as to excite their emotions and
stimulate the war spirit
He says that Britain did not respond
readily to the call to arms because the
cause was not made clear and that they
were obliged to make much of the rights
of small nations and bleeding Belgium
and that no enlightened government"
will ever go into a war without strong
lead which appeals TO the emotions Of the
people for people viii not give their
lives for technicality"
The United States must have an appeal
and that appeal, according to Arthur Bull
lard, should be "Democracy-theh hope of
humanity-is in danger"
The book is sincere, if somewhat naive.
II sounds like lecture to statesmen on
the psychology Of craftsmanship and the
best way of advertising.
II sounds as if the American people
had been led il the way that we want the
people TO go.
Billiards. advice and conclusions, start
ing from his premises are psychologically
correct, but they are so cold-blooded and
inhuman that they smack of Prussianism
rather than democracy.
