we went into war and we mean bus
mess now.
It is certain that the Central Pow
crs will be required to pay huge in
IDENTITIES. This money must be con-
tributed by the enemy political units
that existed previous to the revolution
in Germany and it is high time the
socialist cabinet conferred with parts
independent republics and learned
whether they intend to provide
their proportionate share toward this
Indebtedness. Bavaria, for example,
processes to be a republic isolated from
Germany proper. But Bavaria was
part of Germany when the Hun
broke loose and it remained an in
tegral part of the empire while vic
tory was possible. Bavaria, there
fore, must agree to an assessment to-
ward the indemnities.
If the people of the old empire
should show a dissemination to con-
tribute toward all 1nQemn1C1eS iSNleQ,
the proper course for the victors to
adopt would be to appoint an Inter
Allied commission to conduct the gov
eminent affairs of what was Germany
and to take charge of all finances.
The United States has successfully in
stalled such administrations in some
of our insular neighbors and has
placed these countries on a paying
basis The principal work Of an In
ter-Allied commission would be to re-
ceive all import and export duties and
to assess and collect internal taxes,
reasonable part of which would be
set aside to pay Germany's obliga-
tons. If Herr Ebert were informed
that such a course would be taken, he
and his cabinet might show more cell
Gritty in arranging a program for con-
structive government instead Of
wasting their time in useless appeals
for Grey.

HONOR FOR TWENTY sixth
DIVISION.

Lonesome home folks may be dis
appointed at the news that New
Englands khaki clad fighting men are
to form part Of the American Army
of Occupation which will take pos
session of territory on the left bank
Of the Rhine prescribed in the ar
mistice terms But 1t Is safe to say
no such emotion swayed those same
fighting men when informed of their
destination. When they sailed from
the rock bound shores of New Eng
land-Pilgrims headed east--the de-
sire of every member of the Twenty
Sixth division was to reach German
soil as quickly as possible and they
would have attained their ambition if
1t was necessary to chop path
through the wall of gray that stood
matter what the cost. Now that the
road to the Rhine is open they should
not be deprived of realizing their
dreams. Their selection is a testi-
monial to their yalor and to the
confidence reposed in them by our
military leaders.
With Gen. John J. Pershing at
their head, the boys from New Eng
land are off to Germany, the big
gest excursion in the history of the
world. II it should be necessary to
continue to Berlin, General Pershing
will find these unda united Yankees
only too eager to start.

IN DEPENDABLE HANDS.

Community labor boards which
have been effective in providing men
and women for essential industries
will be retained in office during the
period of readjusting the industrial
situation. This will mean the con-
tinuance of the New Britain bureau,
as we'll as 1900 other bureaus
throughout the country One of the
duties of the boards will be to tabu-
late the number of workers released
from war activities and telegraph
them to Washington, which will
thereby gain an intimate conception
of conditions in all parts of the ma
ton and take proper steps to prevent
general 1dleness in any section. New
Britain's board has successfully met
the problems assigned to it for war
purposes and 1t is pleasing to learn
that the member are to assist in guild
ing the city back into the paths Of
peaceful pursuits,

free from the domination of auto
cratic government and from the poi
SOnlng influences of deCadent aristo-
cracies, forgetting our fears and
servlle habits, we have elevated the
best from all countries into a common
possession, transfused and transform
ed it by our highest and best ideals
and called it Americanism. A new
thing this is in the world, and the
most precious possession the world
has Though incomplete and still in
the formative age, growing richer and
grander as the years so by, constantly
clearing and purifying itself it's form
and spirit are quite well determined
TO enter into this common heritage
Of the best of all, to be inspired with
these ideals, to learn to understand
the institutions which guarantee our
freedom and rights and enable us to
work together for the common good.
to resolve to forget all purely selfish
means for the work of the highest well
fare of our country and of the world
is to become Americanized To give
to the foreign born population in the
United States and all others the fullest
and freest opportunity for this is what
We in the Bureau of Education mean
by Americanization. Every part of our
program is directed to this end
Americanization is a process Of edu-
cation, of winning the mind and heart
through instruction and enlighten-
ment. From the very nature of the
thing it can make little or no use of
force. 1t must depend rather on the
attractive power and the sweet reason
ableness of the thing itself. Were it
to resort to force by that very act it
would destroy it's spirit and cease to
be American. 1t would also cease to
be American if it should become mar
row and fixed and exclusive, losing it's
faith in hum anity and rejecting, vital
and enriching elements from any
source whatever.
Our program of education does not
compel but invites and alIures. 1t NAV.
therefore, probably must in the be-
ginning be slow; but in the end it will
be swift and sure.
characterization is not something
which the Government or a group of
individuals may do for the foreign
born or others. 1t is what these per
sons do for themselves when the op-
portunity is offered and they are

EXPERTS.

Republican Senators are showing
an active interest in readjustment
problems and have approved the ap-
pointment Of six Congressional COM
substitute for any reconstruction
commission the President may decide
to appoint under the Overman act
The purpose is to confne RECONSTRUCT
ton work to Congress and to block
any attempt to appoint men who are
not members of the Senate or House
The wisdom of such action is debat-
able as 1t would prevent the assigning
OF such men to tremendously import
ant positions as have been employed
In perfecting our war machine. 1t
would mean that the country could
not have the benefit of mon of large
calibre whose energy and brains have
been so instrumental in developing
industry and in whipping the nation
into shape to meet every emergency.
There are members OF Congress
fully qualified to take up this respon-
sible project and they should be draft
ed for the task but it is doubtful If
there are sixty stalwarts who are
mentally endowed for such an under
taking which requires trained special
lists

ALLIED COMMISSION FOR
GERMANY.

Up to date the cabinet which Is
supposed to direct affairs in Ger
many has revealed itself to be a gov
eminent of propaganda rather than
an administrative and executive body
and the sum total of accomplish
ments observable from this distance
consists of q whine by Ebert, Solf &c
Co. concerning the alleged injustice
supposed to be a piteous appeal for
help from the women OF Germany
To the women of America. If the
cabinet has decided on any construc-
tive measures the news has not been
conveyed to America. It appears to
be a cabinet of omission, rather than
a cabinet of commission. Such a
view may be harsh and may not re-
aect the true situation but in the alb
sence of more reassuring informa-
ton from Germany tits the only con-
clusion to be arrived at.
Hesitation and indecision do not
become Germany, whose boast mas
heen efficiency. What of the Won
derfuI driving force and system which
all the world was told were synony-
nous for Kultur? Perhaps Chan
cellor Ebert and his fellow Kultur-
ists-the German soldiers are still
stealing private property as they re-
treat to the Rhine-are bewildered
by the victory of France, which was
"bled white'' England, with her
''contemptible little army, and Amer
lea, whose troops were to be sent to
the bottom of the sea. If such Is the
case they can recover their compos-
ure as quickly as possible, because
the Allies intend to permit no false
sense of humanity to interfere with
their plans. We meant business when

shown the way; what they do for the
country and the thing called demo-
cracy. The function of the Govern
ment and all other agencies interested
in Americanization is to offer the OPP
portunity, make the appeal and in
slpire the desire They can and should
attempt nothing more than to reveal
in all their fullness the profit and the
joy of working together for the COM
mon good and the attainment of our
high ideals, to create the desire to
have a part in the inspiring task, to
show the way by which each may do
his part best and to help him set his
feet squarely on the way.

STEVENS DECIDES
TOPLAY FOOTBALL
Capt. Uhl Gives Hoboken En-
gineers Permission to Go
Ahead With Game.
BY GEORGE b. UNDER WOOD.

Local colleges. following their opening
panic. are coming TO earth. and football
Ia likely to play the part It should in
the physical training Of the Student
Army Training Corps. Stevens Tech Is
the first local college to find itself. Capt.
Chl. commander of Stevens s. A. T. c..
has found that the curriculum is not too
stin to prohibit his charges from in
dulging IN the gridiron pastime. Recog-
mixing footballs value both as a de-
veloper OF soldierly qualities and as a
means for needed recreation, he has
sanctioned the organizing of an eleven.
Capt. Maulsby. commander of the
s. A. T. c. at New York University, yes
terday declared he would permit foot
ball on University Heights should the
students desire to play the game. Major
Robert Milburn, commander at Fordham.
is not adverse to football. provided 1t
will not interfere with military duties,
and Capt. Farrar. who Is at the head OF
the s. A. T. c. at Manhattan. expresses
the same views!
Col. John II. Finley, who controls the
military situation at Columbia. has not
actually prohibited football, and likely
will sanction the organising of an eleven
as soon as things get to running a little
more smoothly on Morningside Heights.
Before the season Is much older Column
bia is likely to have a team on the grid
iron.
1t was learned yesterday that those
interested in football at Columbia had
intimated there was a strong chance of
the Blue and White playing football and
practically had assured Stevens OF q
game on November 16.
SO far four games hava been arranged
BIZ Stevens. The eleven will get into
action week from next Saturday when
II meets Rensselaer, Poly on Castle Point
Field. Hoboken. On the same grounds
on October 10 the Springfield Y, NJ. c. A.
College eleven will be encountered.
On November Stevens will meet the
Pelham Bay Naval eleven. Several
prominent college football stars are at
Pelham Bay, and Eddie Bergin, the for
mer Princeton star. Is whipping together
formidable gridiron aggregation.
November Is an open date on the
Stevens schedule. Both Swarthmore and
Wesleyan have been asked to come to
Castle Point on that date, and one Of
the two likely will accept. The Stevens
boys would much enjoy meeting Swarth-
more, as Coach Durborow of Stevens
halls from the Pennsylvania institution.
