Re DOER AS WELL As A HEARER

In time of war prepare for peace
Everyone is doing his part in winning
the war-winning the war and win
ming it right is the big task-but it is
well to be preparing for peace and to
be preparing in such way that peace
will be all ii should be. Millions upon
millions are suffering, sacrificing and
dying that the world may be made
safe for democracy. Let's make it a
Christian world democracy.
The Y. NJ c. A. has begun the mob
ilization of students in a nationwide
movement for Christian world democ-
racy. The local association is now
preparing to enlist the students of the
University of Missouri and should
have the support of everyone. Plans
are being made to organize flying
squadrons" of faculty members and
students to visit fraternity and board
ing house and organize groups. The
main purpose will be to encourage
students to think; to think of the
things that took us into war. of the
war as it is being carried on. and how
they can help to make this world a
better place in which to live not only
now but after the war.
Students of today will be the lead
ers of tomorrow and it is important
that they not only think but that they
think correctly; their thinking must
be constructive not destructive: con-
servative but not stationary. Students
should not wait to be drafted in this
movement; they should volunteer

According to Mr.. Wells, therefore,
we must have one League of Peace
and Germany must be forced into it.
1t is essential to remember that Won
Kuehlmann, in his recent speech,
raised objections against his country
belonging to such a league. He
feared that Germany would feel lone
ly, as dare say that she would. It
was precisely the same objection
raised at the Hague by Baron Mar
schall Won Bieberstein, during the
conference in 1908. And to meet it
some people in England, who may
fairly be called pacifsts, are sus-
picious of the steady consolidation of
the alliance against Germany into
permanent league. They argue that
the project Of a league should be
launched at a peace conference and
not earlier.
They do not convince me. NV own
view is that the security of mankind
demands a league, here and now and
as strong as we can weld it together.
If Germany does not like it, she must
lump it.
should add, however, that French
nationalism is also finding some lit

conception of "the league" Just as
Mr.. Roosevelt repudiates "interna-
tionalism" as kind Of plague, so M.
Raiberti, of the French Senate Com
mission, objects to any super-state
rising above the nations. According
to his opinion the league should be
limited to the maintenance of peace.

newspapers, I find a curious absence
of vituperation against Germany.

Simultaneous News That a Million Men
Had Crossed Is Both Relief and
Surprise to Allies

London, there is great enthusiasm
for Wagner, the Valkyrie. Else
where, it is Mozart. The music is
enjoyed on it's merits. But people
are restless, as if in pain. It comes
out in many ways-disgust over hon
ors lists, which run to 5000 names
for the Order of the British Empire
alone; fresh outbursts against the
alien; wild paroxysms over Pember-
ton-Billing, Miss Maud Allan and
the $4,000 names in the alleged Ger
man blackbook; questions about
Mrs. Pankhurst and her American
tour of advocacy of military inter
vention in Siberia; financial criti-
cisms of the munition business, and
other details.
The most serious matter is Ire
land. Why has Sir Ignatius O'Brien,
Catholic and Nationalist, made
way as Lord Chancellor in Dublin
for Sir James Campbell, Protes-
tant and fisherman? Conscription
for Ireland has been announced and
then dropped. Mr.. Barnes, in the
Cabinet, advocates federal Home
Rule, which might be managed
through the imperial conference now

tiers and would merge nationalities.
That is the theory-once more am

the address at Mount Vernon will be
taken as to some extent indorsing it.
Il stand here now to speak,"
said the President, "speak proud

spread of this independence
Day) revolt, this liberation, to
the great stage of the world it,
self!'
His impassioned denunciation Of
governments which fear the people,
are clothed in strange trappings, use
their people as fuel and exercise
primitive authority, applies to the
Central Powers. But this Mount
Vernon message is read by all who
feel a grievance against authority.
Its effect must be universal.
What really divides Britain to-day
is controversy over future rela-
tions with Germany. The President
has proposed League of Nations.
Lord Curzon does not believe that
the Central Powers can be included.
He therefore contemplates two
leagues, each of which would be
armed, with close alliances within
itself-economic, naval and military.
Obviously, the control of raw ma
terials would rest largely with the
Allies and the United States, who
New-York tribune., 1918-07-14

would cut off supplies from Germany
as long as she continues to be a
menace to the world. By such press
ure it is hoped that Germany would
be forced to disarm after the war.
but in the immediate future she must
be isolated by every device known to
those who frame tariffs and guide
the carrying trade of the world. The
United States, with her control Of
tonnage, can do a good deal to make
such measures effective. The reso-
lutions Of the Paris Conference and
various commercial reports, of a
protective character, tend toward
these Economic BARRIERS" as the
President has called them. The emo
tons aroused by war, profound
mistrust Of the German, and a
hatred of his ways are all factors,
making for the same end.
Labor Takes
A Different View
On the other hand, organized labor
takes very different view. Two
leagues Of nations would be only an
extension Of the old balance Of
power. H. G. Wells, who looks far
into the future, has written a book,
In the Fourth Year. Authorizations
Of World Peace" in which he gives
an appalling picture of the alterna-
tive to disarmament. He says:
"We shall get big land ironclads

people who think that this is the sort
OF victory that we are fighting for
are, IN my opinion, wrong. We are
not fghtlng for that victory, and we
shall not achieve that victory so far
as | can see. That is not our view
of victory. That is the German view
OF victory"
AS | interpret this pronouncement,
an invasion of Germany, costing as
1t would million or more Allied
lives, will be necessity forced on us
by the Hohenzollerns, in their pride,
not task which we would choose for
ourselves. The words of General
Smuts. are important because he was
speaking in the restless area of the
Clyde. He is the real link between
the government and Liberalism and
Labor. 1t is not to be assumed that
IN quoting the above passages l ex-
press any opinion on them.
Many other writers and Speakers
in England are discussing what is
meant by the word victory" in this
war. In the House of Lords, Lord
Lansdowne has a considerable fol-
lowing among the supreme judges.
The Aldwyck Club recently enter
tanned Major Putnam and Lord Mer-
sey used these words:
mo one could predict when peace
would come, but even then many
years must elapse before we should
be able to say who was the winner
of the war"
Probably his sentence is to be ex-
planned by a parallel passage from
former Lord Chancellor Buckmaster,
who has said:
The real winners of the war will
be determined ten or twenty years
afterward, and they will be the ma
ton who will be best able to face the
growing discomfort Of disillusioned
people, to ward off growing famine,
and to save their people from the
universal bankruptcy to which
Europe is speeding every day with
increasing pace"
What these men are thinking
about appears to be, therefore, the
possibility Of a revolutionary move
ment sweeping over Europe when
the armies are demobilized. If we
are to follow the precedent of 1848,
when every throne in Christendom
tottered, such an upheaval wouid
