The Aircraft Investigation.

The investigation of the charges af-
fect:ng the governments aircraft pro
gram is we'll determined upon, and
should be made thorough.
For months, r,lmors OIL the subject
have had their own way. These hava
circulated the more freely, because N
grea. things had been promised in that
line of war activity. Some persons had
brought themselves to believe that the
war would be won overhead, and that
the machines for the work could, and
would. be produced in America in larger
numbers. of more efficiency. and more
speedily, than anywhere else in the
world. George would do it, and George
was America.
f2) AN enormous amount of money
was involved. Even in this day of tall
financial figures. appropriations running
over billion dollars for one feature of
war work looked, and was, big. If this
huge sum, or large portion of it, had
been wasted, by whose orders and under
what influences had the thing been done?
If no more than delay had taken place.

they had heen carefully selected, and
they commanded confidence. Hence
charges rejecting upon them neccssar-
lily arrested attention and increased Cos
sip.
On several accounts, therefore, it was
time to remove so serious and important
a matter ont of the twilight zone Of mere
talk into the white light of inquisition
and fact; to prepare to lay before the
publ. details of what has been done,
or left undone, and why; to Tx respon-
sibility, and impose penalties if penal
ties have been incurred.
Whether Congress shall ass: ct has yet
to be determined. It voted the money,
and Is IN part responsible for the con-
duet Of tho war. In other matters it
has not kept close track Of supplies. It
has seemed to feel that in simply pro-
viding money for war purposes it was
dis.hnrging its full duty.
A different opinion has lately appear
ed, in Congress and out. This opinion is
that Congress, as the war-declaring
power and the holder of the govern
mcnt's purse, should follow up its sup
plies Cor wsr purposes, and see how they
are invested and what they bring in,
and thus put all executives, high and
low, on notice to keep busy and within
the law, and gee that the government
gets dollars worth for every dollar
expended.

Lusitania Day.

a Three years ago today German
saahmarine torpedoed the steamer Lusi-
taaia off the coast Of Ireland and sank
.her with loss of over l,l00 ives-men,
:~omcn and little children-civilians. in
nocent of any part in the great war,
Travelling within their rights and sent
without warning to most terrible death.
To-day the United States is fighting Ger

.Hiolation of the rights of neutrals. It
rs we'll to bear that tragedy in mind to
understand more keenly the nature Of
The enemy we now face and the neces-
sity for a thorough prosecution Of the
war to victorious conclusion.
q. The sinking Of the Lusitania was de-
7Eberately planned. Germany even took
credit for giving warning before
the ship sailed that those who took pas
Sage on her did so at their own risk.
6he was marked as a victim before her
passengers boarded her In New York.
The report Of her destruction was await
ed in Germany with breathless interest.
sPhc news caused great rejoicing. The
schools were closed to make q holiday.
Little children sang the flynn Of Hate"
with spirit. Flags were displayed in
.jubilation. A medal was struck by the
government to commemorate the crime.
fhe commander Of the submarine was
IGNORED and feted and decorated. Never
was more shameless display Of brutal
hard -heartedness, of ghoulish exultation
ever wanton. useless, unjustifable
slaughter.
Germany has paid dearly for that
stroke. It brought into the war, even
tually, though not Immediately, the most

The Banner Bond City.

All present indications orc that
Washington again leads the country in
the percentage of population subscrib-
ing for liberty bonds. With incomplete
returns it is believed that over 1000
individuals in this District contributed
to the loan. or about one to three and
quarter OF the population. The national
ratio is now estimated at about one to
six. Washington led in population per
centage in the first and again in the
second loan, and it is gratifying to find
til 6 nrc. cminence maintained.
Unless all signs now visible fail the
c;tr's quota, too, will have been dou-
hled, with a subscription of more than
$o5,so0,0u0. This will warrant the plac
ing of blue star on the honor flag,
a distinction perhaps not gained by any
other city of approximately the same
SIZE or larger.
Truly the people of Wash ngton have
manifested their practical patriotism
from the beginning Of the war. They
have been subjected to much unjust
criticism. for profiteering and inhospi-
tality In truth, they have borne them
selves with remarkable unselfshness in
this trying situation. A few have trans
crossed, it is true, but the great ma
jority have asked how they could help
and have done their utmost to serve.
In the financial aspects Of the campaign
they have, as these figures now rolling
in indicate, proved themselves in all re-
spects true and loyal Americans.

infectious to the point Of mutiny. In
acting upon these cases the President
has tecn guided by considerations that
