The dispatch from Washington CIV
ing the number of non -combatant
commissions as $4,000 and stating that
there will be congressional inquiry
on this subject touches a sore spot in
the American consciousness. There
has been such a splendid response Of
Americans OF all classes to the can Of
patriotism that the striking contrast in
other cases is painful. 1t is not
pleasant to think of robust young men
who have had the best that American
life could give them Sinking the man
ly payment of this debt. We think OF
the men, millionaires and mechanics.
who are now IN the trenches in France
or are making ready to go there, and
we are proud OF them and OF our
country. But all the deeper is our re-
sentiment against those who have
used social or political or personal in
nuence to make themselves safe. and
especially against those who have
donned a Uniform and a military title
that did not take them into danger, but
kept them out of It.
Military uniforms and titles ought
not to be permitted to be used as
camounage by the slackers. Especially
disagreeabel is the evidence of the use
Of cabinet influence to keep sons or
relatives in safe places. 1t will be noted
by the American people that tho
Colonel Roosevelt was not allowed to
go to the front all his sons are there,
while the administration has not a
representative.
There has been = misuse OF the uni
form and we hope congress will cor
rect IL in some degree. Exact justice
can not be done, of course. but the
more Migrant and therefore demoraliz-
ing cases should be weeded out No
man should be allowed thru influence
to take the credit Of service when he
is in fact hiding under the ebd. The
draft boards are applying the law
rigidiy to young men who have no
pull or disdain to use 1T More than a
milton young Americans have volun-
teered to fight. The Stacker should be
marked for what he is.-Chicago Tri-

many II has been divided with the al
lies. Joffre had to consult French.
Hindenburg consulted none but the
kaiser. When the plan was laid one
man drove the bolt home. Now this
condition has been met by the APP
rointment of Foch. He will decide.
Probably it will be a flank attack. II
will surely be so if the German wedge
continues to lengthen. At any rate
the counter offensive will have Its
thrust directed by one mind. With the
reserves of Americans, French and
British whom we are told are being held
fresh and untouched for the purpose
of counter and general of Foch's
class to direct new story may come
over the wires within the week.
But the war will go on. How long
none knows nor is any military man
ready to predict. Prediction that it
will end soon comes from those who
know little of war but much Of poll
:tics. The war will not end by a real
German defeat until America has
transported her force of men and
money and supplies to the theater OF
war. It is idle to expect a peace from
this battle. Advantage without doubt
but decisive defeat that will bring
plea for peace because Of defeat is
not to be expected by either side. The
war will go on. If Germany's great
drive is defeated and turned into a
retreat it will mean disaster but not
national defeat. This war is to be
decided by America and American
strength on the ground if the war is
