IN GERMANY,s OWN COIN

In the Franco-Prussian war, when
the Germans had surrendered a great
French army at Sedan and France
asked for an armistice, Bismarck re-
piled:
Germany desires to promote the re-
establishment of peace. The best
means OF assuring it is to deprive
France of her army"
That same policy is far more apple
able today than it was in 1870 At that
time Germany was not abliged to ami
hilate her enemy's army in order to
re-establish peace, because Germany
herself was the real aggressor, and
France would have submitted to an
honorable peace. Now, we know that
there is no way of insuring peace to
ourselves and the world except ami
hilating German military power.
We therefore do Germany the honor
OF adopting Bismarck's formula. We
find that his own words fit the present
situation better than any we could
devise ourselves. We desire to pro-
mote the re-establishment of peace, .
and "the best means of assuring it is
to deprive Germany of her army"

KAHANAMOKU TO
JOIN THE NAVY

Duke Kahanamoku of Honolulu, the
worlds greatest sprint swimmer, and
his fellow champions from Hawaii
Harold Kruger and Clarence Lane
expect shortly to enter the Pelham
Bay Naval Training Station
Kruger and Lane arrived in New
York a couple days ago and now await
their official appointment Duke is in
Washington recovering from slight
attack of Spanish influenza, but will
join his team mates here as soon as
his condition permits.
Particular interest attaches to the
enlistment of these three stars from
the South Sea Islands, for Pelham al
ready has strong swimming team
and the recent opening Of several
pools on the camp grounds offers
members of the squad better facili-
ties than they have ever had for prac-
tice
The addition of the Hawaiians will
not only serve to increase inter-
est in water sports, but give Pelham
one of the finest aggregations of wa
termen in the country, warranted to
vie with the Great Lakes Station
swimmers, now American champions,
for national leadership.

rFLUr RAyAGHs IN THE ARMY

The seriousness of the influenza cpl
demic can be best appreciated by OBJ
serving army bulletins. The number
of cases reported so far in our train
ing camps is several times as large as
the total number of casualties among
our troops abroad.
That is not the worst of IT, The
"hu" Is dangeTC IS not so much in it,
self as in its enects--the ailments II
leads TO. II weakens a patients resist
ance so that deadlier disease germs
find him an easier prey. Thus the
"nu" epidemic in the army has turned
into a pneumonia epidemic. Therein
is the most mournful tragedy that has
yet befallen us In this war.
These pneumonia cases alone are
nearly four-ffths as many as our re-
ported war-zone casualties. And more
American soldiers have died from
pneumonia than have died from the
fighting.
This is tragic no so much in the fact
that all those men have died as in the
fact that they died unprofitably. We
expect large numbers of soldiers to
lose their lives. But what an area of
France or Belgium those pneumonia
victims might have redeemed!
There is no blame for anyone. Our
army medical service is recognized as
the best in the world Our camps are
hygienic, our medical officers are
skilled and devoted, the sick have the
most scientific and solicitious care. II
is one of the fortunes of war. May our
fighting men win victories lightly, to
make up for it!
Let us be thankful that the peak of
the epidemic has passed. And let us
remember that every man who dies on
a hospital cot in training camp gives
his life to his country just as surely
as his comrade who dies on the field of
battle.

openly In the field; and even then. as
often happens, a dark horse may be
trotted GU. who will get away with the
race. The leaders of both parties
often express opinions as to the mer-
its or dement's of candidates, oftener
than otherwise say such man will
not do than that such a man will DO,
but at present none of them seem TO
be backing any one for any particular
place. Not infrequently a leader of
prominence and influence will say.
"So-and-So will not do and give
reasons why he viii not make strong
or acceptable candidate. Again, he
may say, "So-and-so might do, bu.
it is hard to foretell" Not often is it
possible TO get any really influential
leader to express a real preference
for any one man for any important
nomination; more often he will say he
prefers someone else, bu. is silent as
TO whom that someone may be when
asked to do so. As a result OF this
noncommital attitude of the part of
the leaders, both city, county and
state, it is at present really impossible
to form any conclusions as to probable
candidates for any of the important
nominations to be made next year, and
this state of affairs obtains in both
the Democratic and the Republican
parties.
As stated from time to time by your
correspondent during the past six
months, there are many reasons to be-
lieve tina. the Democrats of the state
and city will be able to harmonize
their differences before the campaign
next year, and thus present a united
and unconquerable front to their OPP
ponents in the contest for control of
the state. These reasons are multiply
ing from day to day, and while there
may be no little friction from time to
time among the different factions and
conflicting interests, the belief is now
general here that after the ticket is
nominated there will be general get
together Gf such a desirable condi-
ton does not occur sooner) and that
the parry will be in better condition
than it has been for many years. The
meeting of the State Committee last
week resulted in the most desirable
state of harmony, and the city and
county people all appeared to be filled
with the desire to do what would be
best for the people and the party. The
definite settlement of the annexation
problem by the legislature last win
ter has already accomplished won
ders. Contrary to general expecta-
ton, the people of the counties affect
ed, appear to be satisfied with the re-
suit, and the great accession of
strength expected by the Republi-
cans as a result of their work at An
nanolis in behalf of annexation does
not appear to be about to materialize.
The city people, it is true, seem to be
grateful for what was done, but they
see no reason why their gratitude
should lead them to align themselves
with the Republicans and vote for Re-
publican candidates in order to show
their gratitude, and very few of them
will go that far.

TEACHING LABOR
PROBLEMS IN SCHOOL
United States Bureau of Education
Issuing Lessons Dealing With
WOrkmen and WOrkwOmen

Labor problems are being brought
before school pupils through the work
of the United States Bureau of Edu-
cation, which, in its series of courses
on community and national life, has
prepared interesting lessons on THE
Worker and the Wage System" and
1.-The War Labor Administration"
The lessons for the upper classes
in the high schools discuss topics
more advanced than those for lower
high school and upper graded school
pupils, while still more elementary
subjects are provided for the interme-
diate grades of the grammar schools.
Topics previously discussed include
the rise of machine industry, social
control, unemployment. labor organi-
cations, employment and social insur-
ance.
In the high school lesson on The
Worker and the Wage System" is
discussed the rise of the warge sys-
tenn, which is shown to be of campar-
atively modern development, with its
result-leaving the worker dependent
on the employer, for hire, in specu-
lative society. The classes of risks
that employers are subjected to are
described, with their consequences in
the way of insecurity for the worker.
The influence of accidents, disease and
fatigue. and the weak bargaining posi-
ton of the workman, are presented.
AS remedies for some of the difficult
ties of present-day society, the les
son goes on to tell of devices for maxi
ing capital secure, and consequently
inslring the workman. The aim of
the lesson is TO stimulate constructive
thought on the problems OF the wage
worker.
In the lesson for the high school
students in the lower classes, the
problems of women in industry are
discussed; and in the lesson exclu-
sively for graded schools, the child
labor problem is taken I'D.

WE HAVE THE FOOD

The news from the farm is as cheer
ing as the news from the front. There
is hardly a crop OF any importance
that is not turning out better than
was expected, and in nearly every case
the production is above normal.
Spring and winter wheat combined
will be about $4,000 bussels. the sec
ond largest crop in our history. Corn.
though nominally 440, 900, 900 bushels
less than last years huge production.
may still equal IL in value. because it
is OF better quality. The 7S0.000,Q00
bushels will provide plenty for beast
and man, and help in the accumula-
tion Of wheat surplus. The oat crop
is the third largest on record, almost
equal TO last years crop, and of I'M
usually high quality. The tobacco
crop is the largest ever grown. Bar
ley, potatoes, rice. cotton, apples and
sugar beets all look better than they
did month ago. In no vital crop is
there anything approaching a failure.
We have nothing to waste, but we
have enough for the essential needs Of
ourselves and our allies.
Nature is with US again, and again
the American farmer has done his duty
nobly. In food, as well as in men and
materials. we are now ready for the
big effort that is to win the war as we
want to win ii.

rifiemen pick so many of them off.
Hoover says the food crisis is pass
ed Now, honest, do you feel any the
worse for the astronomical sacri-
fees you have made?
Headline informs me that the we'll
but not favorably known Crown
Prince is heading-yes, you are right
back to Germany.
Another gold cup given by the
Kaiser is also being put through the
crucible, and it looks from here as if
he will turn out all brass.
The German editors are right in
part. There are about a million
Americans in France, who won't be
there long. They will be in Germany.
British subjects here must enlist or
be drafted. The days of grace are
past, and those who have been lodging
service, there are relatively few we
are glad to say, might as we'll make
up their minds to "join out"
To our way of thinking the worst
insult the Great General Staff has
handed us is found in that report in
dustriously circulated among Boche
soldiers that the Allies eat their pris-
oners. Well, we fairly eat EN- alice,
so to speak.
If there is anything in that story
that the Sultan has broke" with the
Kaiser, We suggest that. after the war,
we sentence our most notorious pris-
oner to Turkey, with an intimation
that it would be nice to see relations
severed between his head and shout

Candidates. A General Get-I0-

To the Editor OF The Evening Capitol:
The Liberty Loan, the prospect Of
peace before Christmas. and the pend
ing draft. and last, but not least. the
prevailing epidemic of Spanish influ
enza. have so absorbed public atten-
ton during the past week that hardly
any attention has been paid 10 other
matters of Importance, and as result
the last days of the registration Of
voters have gone, and at least fifty
thousand qualified citizens of Bal
timore City have failed TO register and
will be unable to vote for Congress
man mex moth. The registration in
Baltimore this year was expected TO
be a full registration, not supple
mentary one, and an entirely new list
has been made out, and the result is
extremely disappointing to all those
people who like to see full vote
registered, and a fairly full vote polled
at the election. As a consequence OF
avail themselves of the privilege of
registra ion, more than fifty thousand
men will be unable to vote this year
and the total vote polled will be
smaller than il has been for a long
period of time. 1t should be matter
of congra .ulation to Democrats. how
ever, to know that the falling off in
the registration was much greater on
the Republican side than it was on
the part of the Democrats, and the
majority of those who did register
is so largely Democratic that it is
hardly possible to see how the Re-
publicans can elect a single Congtess-
man in the city, or in any of the out
lying districts. OF course, as there
was nothing but supplementary reg
istration in the counties the old lists
are still in force there, and no new
calculations are necessary; but so far
as Baltimore City is concerned the
new registration short and meager as
it is, gives every advantage to the
Democrats on the affiliated vote; and
the Democrats who took the trouble
to register this year are the old fash
ioned straight-out, always-vote-the
ticket sort, who can be depended upon
to come out and vote for their parry
nominees on election days.
1t is expected that the contest for
nominations for places on the State
and local tickets really begin very
soon after the election, now less than
three weeks off. There have been
plenty of indications that there will
be an unusually large number of as
pirants for every office, both great
and small, at the outset, ind that much
thinning out will take place before
the primaries next year. There are
few signs yet as to any lineup on the
part of the many leaders in behalf
of any particular candidate, and the
general impression is that no real
lineup will take place until all those
who have aspirations or claims are

RESTAURANT FOOD RULES

The new food rules for restaurants
are not only drastic but instructive.
They shed interesting sidelights on the
food situation and contain valuable
hints for the conserving of food and
labor
The rules became effective October
81. Here are some of the most inn
pressive items:
Bread and butter are not to be
served except on request. and then
not until after the first course is
served. The reason for this is OBJ
yious.
There are TO be no more sugar
bowls. One person is allowed one tea
spoonful. if he asks for it.
The featuring OF vegetable dinners
is urged.
Restaurants are asked to be careful
in preparing food beforehand for
guests who may not come
Not more than one kind of meat may
be served at a meal. and bacon must
not be used for garnishing- lit counts
as a meat in itself
The fourth meal" is condemned, as
are elaborate luncheons and banquets
If meals are served at social gather
ings, they must be simple.
Food left over must not be burned
If not available to serve again in any
form, ii is to be saved for animal feed
or fats.
