the defensive or in wholly localized attack.
1t is idle to suppose that the French Will
consent to put their armies defending their
own soil under the supreme command OF
an Italian, an Englshman or even an
American. and it is wholly impossible that
any American officer should be permitted
to take up such burden Of responsibility.
1t is equally unlikely that the British, with
great perils outside of Europe, will sur
render complete control of all their armies
to a Frenchman or an Italian. AS for
Italy, now invaded, her course is clear.
A great deal of cooperation and coordl-
nation are possible. Certain things are
impossible. The Central Alliance is not a
coalition of equals. 1t is combination OF
four nations. three Of which are entirely
subordinate to the fourth, whose military
establishment dominates the alliance and
without whose aid the other three nations
would fall within a week. We are not
going to have any such situation IN the
alliance against Germany, just as there
was no such situation in the cases OF the
alliances against Louis XIV and against
Napoleon.
It is clear that the Allied publics now
are beginning to settle down again to the
main business in hand The first appre-
hension and the first agitation due to
defeat of considerable proportions, but
in a subordinate field, have passed away.
Men arc beginning to perceive that the
war cannot be lost in Italy, precisely as
the Germans have always seen and said
that it could not be won either in Italy or
in the Balkans. There is a growing reali-
cation again Of the stern duty ahead, the
great sacrifices that have yet to be made,
and a readiness to make the sacrifices
and bear the burdens.
The present crisis resembles that Of a
year ago, when Rumania was beaten.
Then the Germans used their successes on
the Danube to cover their failure on the
Somme. Now they are attempting to use
their successes on the Isonzo to counter
balance their defeats on the Lys. They
have made a determined effort to break
the nerve of the alliance against them,
but the maximum Of their success is COM
pretended in the temporary upheaval
produced in Allied cabinets and councils
Let US be perfectly clear in the United
States. Let us make it perfectly clear
in Europe that we have no desire or in
tention to seize control either Of the mill
tary or Of the naval conduct Of the war.
We have neither the generals, the expert
ence nor the establishments to warrant us
to make such a venture, and there Is no
demand in this country in that direction.
Our desire TO see better coordlnatlon
and cooperation has been expressed and
has been heard. Now we are coming to
time when we must let the new machin-
cry work. We must settle down to re-
neyed effort and restricted conversation.
The Russian Republic has died of talk.
The Allied cause has suffered not little
in recent days by reason of the excess Of
language, the less time we waste now over
a good example by restricting his first
pronunciamento to five hundred words.
Since Germany will not be conquered by
language, the less time we waste now over
it the better.

MUSIC ROLLS QUICKLY MADE
Useful Machine Designed Especially
for the Use Of Retail Dealers
Recently Put on the Market.

Designed especially for the use Of
retail dealers, a compact machine that
perfOratcs music rolls for use in play
cr pianos is being introduced. The ap-
paratus Is described in the Popular
Mechanics Magazine. 1t is capable Of
making from one to 10 records at n
time from sheet music, and will also
turn out copies of any standard roll.
Its operation is said to be so simple
that satisfactory work can be done by
persons who are not musicians. The
particular advantage of the machine
seems to be that 1t enables n small
dealer to FIJI his customers orders
promptly without having to carry n
large, expensive stock. It also Obvi-
ates the inconvenience that confront
patrons when special orders have to
be mailed to n factory before their
wants can be supplied. Since 1G sheets
can he perforated simultaneously, n
dealer in making q roll to order has an
opportunity to add II records to his
stock with no expense other than the
bare cost of the paper and spools.
