MY right is routed, my left is re-

the crisis of the Marne four years ago.
This time, with right, centre and left in
tact, he has attacked again. His former
blow earned him the title Of "the first
strategist in Europe" He would seem

The Brooklyn Eagle, on the morning
when my open letter appeared (June 25,
contained an editorial as follows:
"a Charge That Should Be Answered.
DR.. Scherer regards Mr.. Hearst and his
newspapers as dangerous to a county
engaged in the prosecution of great
war; said The Eagle. "He expresses

The following day Mr. Baker replied, in
statement triumphantly quoted by The Los

The Fat There Was

Mr.. Hoover has sent to President Will
son a remarkable statement of the
achievements of the food administration
within the last fiscal year. 1t appears,
for example, that last year our exports
of meats were nearly half again as great
as in the year before, although they had
amounted to over two billion pounds in
19l6-17. BY far the larger part of this
tremendous increase was in the last six
months, from January to July
In spite of an extremely disappointing
wheat crop, we kept up the tremendous
shipments of the year before, and even
increased them. All told Mr.. Hoover cal
culates that the total "nutrtional pro-
duction" of the country for the fiscal
year just closed was between z per cent
and per cent below the average of the
three previous years; and this shrinkage
about covered our entire normal surplus
in these lines. 1t follows, therefore, that
these tremendous exports under the food
Administration have represented a kind
of saving by the American people.
Therefore, says Mr. Hoover, in effect,
may we lay much flattering JUNCTION to
our souls. But in truth how much? How
many among US have achieved true saw
ing? How much have we denied our
selves? How much have you, and uou.
and YOU? We know not any one who
has gone without an adequate and salts
flying meal.
And what this country has done the
whole wide world has done, more or less.
England has achieved wonders. In
France food is plenty and fairly cheap,
egen though four millions of her sons
have gone to war. And do we not remem-

and now the fourth goes by, and we know
that most Of the stories of German star
walton were imagir atoms. The truth
seems to be that the modern organization
of life implies prodigous waste. 1t
seems probable that, without this huge
slack to take up, the world war could not

The Secretary of War and the provost
marshal general are considering how
the draft shall be extended and particu-
larly whether the age limit shall be
raised presently, and, if so, exactly how
much. What does Mr.. Baker make of the
fact that SO much of Congress, so many
newspapers and so great body of public
opinion all demand widening of the
draft age limits? What does Mr.. Baker
think it means? What does he think the
people think the War Departments hesi-
tation means?

pcse of the s2,Ooo,ooooOo issue, but who
can say as much Of the next issue?"
The Berlin Lokal-A Anzeiger reprinted
from Hearst's NeaO York american of May
1t. 1917, these gems of editorial "loyalty":
"The reports of our own officers say
that the Allies will lose the war unless
We send enough war materials, men and
ships to help them win
"As long as the U-boat danger is not
put out OF the way, any question of ship
ping men across and also material is in
the air. Things being SUCH would it not
be better to end the war honoraby?
Shall we send troops to destroy Germany
which, perhaps, may be necessary for the
defence of own country"
While all newspapers look alike to our
Secretary of War, the Germans exercise
discrimination.
The New York Tribune's translation of
tender tribute to Hearst in the Cologne
VolksSeitang follows:
I'm the daily press the numerous
Hearst papers of New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, Chicago, San Francisco and other
cities were auxiliaries for US of valued
influence. How far Hearst's In
ternational News Service got upon the
nerves of the London atrocity manufact-
urers is shown by the cable embargo
which London finally placed upon the
Hearst service, thereby cutting his Eu-
ropean life-nerve.
More valuable. however, than the
news were the editorials of the Hearst
els of popular style and arresting COM
position.
Hearst last year took the sting out Of
one of the worst pests of the American
press when he had his editor in chief of
The EUeni1g Journal ARTHUR Brisbane,
with his salary of $4,000, the highest
paid newspaper man of America and
probably of the world - to buy The
Washington Times and conduct it in
line with his other papers"
That The Times has been conducted "in
line with his other papers" is sufficiently
clear from Hearst's $75,0OO-man's issue of
July 16, 1917, issued within two blocks of
the White House, whence he is intimately
addressed by Mr.. Tumulty as INV dear
Brisbane"
Anarchy rules in Russia" writes The
Washington Times; "somebody must do
something. The natural somebody is Ger

The civilization of Western Europe NAV bs
very grateful to Germany if the war finds
Germany with enough strength left to nm
dertake the maintaining of order in Russia
developing the resources there and making
few billions of rubes in the process"
How could Mr.. Burleson write of the
Hearst leviathan's development in Chicago
as liable and unselfish efforts" in behalf of
Justice and freedom and true democratic
government? And how is it that Hearst
agent could dare come into my office in the
Council of National Defence Building and
boast that the President himself had inter
vened to have Hearst's cable privileges re-
stored (which statement do not vet per
mt myself to believe.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
G. IR: friend has just shown me The
y Los Angeles Eromiraer of July 5,
containing an editorial article
titled "Dr. Scherer and Secretary of War
Raker-What contrast!" Undoubtedly.
there is contrast between Secretary Baker
and myself, but the public is not interested
in it. The public is greatly interested
however, in the contrast between the Hearst
Of May, 1913, and the Hearst of May, 1917
Since the 10th of May, 1915 when the
President signed the sedition act, penaliz-
ing with heavy fines or Imprisonment, or
both, those who seek "to promote the sue
OF our enemies" "to obstruct the sale
by the United States of bonds" or ''by word
or act support favor the cause of any
country with which the United States is at
war, or by word act oppose the cause of
the United States therein"-since May 16
1913, Mr.. Hearst has seemed to be good
and will perhaps seem so for season
since he now advertises his "loyaty" with
his own full page affidavits.
But let contrast the Jekyll Hearst Of
May, 1918, with the Hyde Hearst of Nav
1917
The Hamburger Ndchrichten joyfully
reprinted from Hearst's Ne1U York Ameg-i-
can Of May 3, 1917, these editorial excerpts:
"Well, the facts are these:
unless America can perform the twin
miracles of fcscuing England from the
submarine AMI of putting enough troops
in France to beat off the offensive which
the Germans are now beginning to de-
velop, .
eve tell you plainly that in military,
naval and economic way the Germans
have the Allies whipped and that with
out our Intervention there was not
doubt that Germany would have victori-
ously dictated peace before this year was
"And we have been plunged into war,
without preparation, with the most pow
erful single nation in the world, equipped
8 to the last shoelace with every possible
necessity of warfare filling the seas with
her submarine navy, covering half con-
tinent with her veteran armies, and
everywhere winning her way with blood
and iron against her foes."
Yet the amiable Secretary of War says
that nobody representing the government
ought to be criticising any newspaper.
The Cologne VolksSeitung reprinted
from Hearst's NelU York American Of
May II and 81, 1917, these editorial COM
ments:
"Our part in this war, for months to
come is to pay the bill-to finance and
feed hungry and bankrupt England, hun
CRY and bankrupt France, hungry and
bankrupt Italy
"If the result of war is to be that we
will be hopelessly outclassed by England
naval power and hopelessly beaten
by England at the start in competition
for the worlds trade then it would seem
to be prudent to keep enough of our own
money to build our industries.
"Our money, like our armies and our
fleets, should be concentrated at its home
bases and not dispersed abroad.

are now orders with mines in the
state for 5000 cars of emergency
