continuing to take place. CreeTs re-
assurances will not do, for they have
been discredited; and they have been
discredited because they were intended
to lynch all criticism. Mr.. Hughes's re-
assurances will be very effective. Re-
assurances from the Senate Military
Affairs Committee, based upon intimate
knowledge of conditions, would be most
gratefully received.
Criticism represents anxiety. If it
represents distrust, that is so much
worse. Anxiety cannot be allayed nor
distrust removed by imposing a moral
decree Of silence. Mr.. Roosevelt, for
instance, cannot be silenced at all; but
his dynamic personality could be "lnob-
ilized" for the war.

Prime Minister Hughes

There are few more interesting men in
the world than the Right Honorable
William NJ. Hughes, whose arrival at
Pacific port has been announced this
week. Decker, labor leader, politician
in Australia; statesman and orator both
in Australia and in the British Isles, Mr..
Hughes deserves a welcome from the
American people as one who typifes in
another and allied commonwealth quail
ties we believe American
1t is little more than two years ago
now since Mr.. Hughes passed through
this country on his way to England He
was then little known in. London and far
less in Washington. But in two brief
months he had become commanding
figure in British politics and about him
centred movement to "ginger up" the
war. His speeches attracted an atten-
tion which they deserved and at critical
time in the war had an influence which
cannot be exaggerated. He literally
took England by storm and scored real
success in France.
After his successful English visit the
Prime Minister returned to Australia to
engage in a fight for conscription, in
which he was beaten. But despite his
defeat he remained the leader of his
country and the exponent Of Australian
determination to fight it out. A little
man in physique, Enthusiastically familiar
with hard work, a Welshman, like David
Lloyd George; a dangerous opponent in
debate, good fighter, democrat, Will
lam M. Hughes has earned place in
Allied council and in Allied affairs as
one Of the men who have helped to keep
the fight going and to make the victory
possible.
Before he left Australia two years ago
he gave orders for the elimination Of
German influence from the great metal
industries of Australia. eff they should
ask me how it was to be done, before God
| could not tell them," he once remarked,
"but they know that l will find a way"
This is "Billy" Hughes. He did find
way.
1t is to be hoped now that there will
be chance for the American people to
hear his viriIe words and receive the in
formation and encouragement which he
brings from Australia to our British
ally. There are few men in the world
living outside our own frontiers who
more thoroughly understand or sympa-
thize with American ideas and American
ideals than Mr.. Hughes. And he should
be, therefore, 2 welcome and on boDoroI
guest in the United States.

Close to Caillassx

The conviction of Duval and Leymarie
draws the net little closer around the
clique of French "defeatists" and traf-
fickers with the enemy who, until Gle
menceau came into power, laughed in their
sleeves at the idea of prosecution. They
were sheltered, they thought, behind tn,
voting power of group of Deputies
which no government could defy without
making its tenure of Office vexatious and
insecure.
Bolo Pacha was tracked down, SEN
fenced and executed. He was an exotic
adventurcr, only casually allied with
the native politicians who were en-
gagged in traAicking in French honor and
safety. Bolo played his own hand, al
though at times his path crossed the
paths OF the others. But Duval, the di-
rector OF the German-subsidized Bonnet
Rouge" was man with important off,
cial connections. He was protected by
Leymarle, an under officer in the Min
lstry OF the Interior and subsequently,
the head of the French secret service.
Leymarle saw to it that check for S3O,-
ooO, OF German origin, which Duval was
caught bringing in from Switzerland, was
restored, and proceedings against Duval
on that score were quashed.
Duval, Almereyda and the "Bcnnet
Rouge" staff were hired men, doing Ger
many's reptilian work. Their paper was
subsidized from Mannheim. Leymarie,
however, was a political agent of Malvy,
the Minister of the Interior, put into the
Viviani Cabinet by Joseph Caillaux and
retained there under succeeding min
istries.
Evidence gathered from many sources
indicates that Caillaux expected to come
into power when France should weary of
the war, confess defeat and signify her
Willingness to accept German-made
peace. The Germans never concealed the
fact that he was the man with whom thew
expected to deal in that contingency.
Calliaux himself never disguised his be-
lief that dependence on Germany was
preferable to an alliance with Great
Britain. The operations of Duval, Lev
marie and Malvy--and incidentally those
OF Bolo Pacha--fitted in with Caillaux's
ambitions and policy.
Ciemenceau was the one force in French
politics whom Caillaux's influence in tho
Chamber of Deputies could not intimi-
date. he loathed "defeatism," whether
accepted Nas an abstract political theory
on "nlch to attain Office or practised
shamelessly in the concrete for German
gold. By his fearless leadership France
has been saved from hideous moral ir-
iection. he boldly and successfully un-
covered rottenness which had spread to
the very core of government.

King Stuff

With that delightful subtlety Of humor
to which we are becoming accustomed in
the German mind, the Kaiser proceeds to
the business of sclf-determining the fate
of Lithuania, Courland, Esthonia and
Poland by picking out four exalted king
let's for these sovereign states. Emperor
Charles sits in-rather quietly, we sus-
pect-at the g-piclzing by obvious
right And the kings of Bavaria and
Saxony butt into the game just because
they are kings and here is king stuff
what's a constitution between kings.
g" 1t is a very funny picture, vaguely
reminiscent Of the current magaznes-a
little difficult to place. But, yes, of
course, king picking is>the favorite occu-
patton of those wild imaginers who seek
Co visualize before us just what America
would be like if the German conquered it.
Kings of New York and Texas and hered-
itary Grand Dukes of Westchester
County and the District of Columbia arc
the favorite stock in trade of these far
fetching dreamers Of disaster. Absurd,
preposterous stuff Sheer nonsense!
Kings are going, going, gone! Why talk
of such anachronisms! 1t is to laugh
Well-we hope Lithuania, Courland,
Esthonia and Poland can still see the Joke.

The "Times" Aeroplane "Con-
spiracy"
''Con.

We do not know upon what intimate
knowledge and information Mr.. T. u.
Adams speaks so oracularly of the aero
plane situation. But he seems to have
been engaged by "The Times" to ferret
out the Gigantic conspiracy" which that
paper in sensational editorial two
weeks ago proclaimed existed in the Air
craft Production Board From the first
OF Mr.. Adams's articles in "The Times"
we Gull this curious statement:
II am reliably informed, in fact, that
German airplane manufacturers have al
ready incorporated certain of the feature,
OF our Liberty motor in the Mercedes
type, which they more commonly use.
and that German planes haze been
brought doacn back of our lines IN auJ,ich
improved details Of Liberty motor con-
sta7tctidn aoerc Incorporated in their en-
gimes."
But the author Of this statement does
New-York tribune., 1918-05-17

not remotely suggest that this was part
of the Times conspiracy, but offers it
simply to forefend the charge which might
be laid against him Of disclosing nfor
nation in his article which might be of
use to the German foe. He AYERS that:
"There is ample proof that German
aviation experts have been able to keep
in close and accurate touch with all we
have been doing and have been attempt
ing to do with the aircraft production"
We find it little difficult to link up
the idea of the Aircraft Production
Board, as result Of an organized con-
spiracy of "bold, powerful, numerous
men" engaged in wrecking our aeroplane
programme and at the same time pro-
ducing a motor Of such excellence that
it's especial features are almost instant
ly incorporated in the German machines.
Every one who knows anything knows
that all aeroplane engine is just an ordi-
nary automobile engine made very light,
very strong and with exceeding preci-
sion of detail. These engines differ very
slightly one from another. The state
ment given out to the newspapers of
yesterday from the War Department
shows that the Liberty motor was kind
Of composite of the best practice of
German, English, French and Italian
makes. Yet Mr.. Adams finds that i'm
provements have been made and that
these have already been Incorporated in
German machines.
Is this the basis of "The Times's" as
tonlshing charges of wrecking econ
spiracy'? We have been unable to find
any other evidence save in the reports
of Mr.. Borglun, of the Aeronautical
Society "of America" Manhattan and
Brooklyn
New-York tribune., 1918-05-17
Without Fear or Favor

In asking Charles Evans Hughes to
become associated with the Attorney
General in the investigation of the air
wisely and farsightedly. The appoint
ment of the Republican candidate for
President as one of the probers will re-
move any question of partisanship in the
inquiry. No one will be able to suspect,
much less to suggest, that under such
circumstances there could be any "white-
Washing" With the acceptance by Mr..
Hughes of the Presidents invitation to
cooperate in the investigation the idea
of politics flew out of the window.
But beyond that the selection is ad
mirable because of the peculiar fitness
of Mr.. Hughes to handle such a proceed
ing. His conduct Of the gas investigation
and later of the great insurance investl-
cation demonstrated his ability to deal
with the complicated affairs Of "big busi-
ness" in all their ramifications, however
obscure they might be. 1t proved his
power to obtain from unwilling witnesses
facts which they desired nightly to with
hold from the record and to drive directly
to the point.
If the production of airplanes was held
up by reason Of inefficiency, Of attempted
grating, of sympathy with the enemy,
Mr.. Hughes may be trusted to get the
facts in evidence. Moreover, his use of
the probe in the insurance investigation
showed this rare quality-the ability to
uncover abuses in situation in such
fashion that the course necessary to be
taken to remedy those evils was evident.
This is as important at the present time
as the necessity to learn the facts about
airplane construction delays.
A complete and searching inquiry, with
out fear or favor, is assured by the Presi-
dents choice of Mr. Hughes. The country
can ask nothing better. The greatest
investigator" of our time is now in
charge of an inquiry essential to the sue
cess Of our armies.

To Err May Be Human, but Don't

(From The Engineering and Mining JourNab-
When the credit man makes mistake,
it is good night. But when plumber
makes mistake, he charges twice for it;
when the lawyer makes mistake, it's just
what he wanted, because he has a chancs
to try the case again; when the carpenter
makes a mistake, it's just what he expected,
because the chances are 10 to he never
learned his trade; when doctor makes
mistake, he buries it; when judge makes
mistake, it becomes the law of the land;
when preacher makes a mistake, nobody
knows the difference, and when an electr;-
clan makes a mistake, he blames it on the
induction. the meaning OF which nobody
knows. The foregoing is from "Thc Pitts
burgh Credit Bulletin" To it we add that
when the mining engineer makes mistake,
it all depends upon whether he may be re-
lied upon not to make the same mistake
twice. If he can be relied upon, he is likely
to be a valuable man. However,
mistake making mining engineers are not
popular.
