EXCUSES FOR KILL ING THE WOUNDED

In his account Of the raid on British hospitals in
France by German air raiders. Philip Gibbs uses Ian
guaSe more moderate than Will come to the lips Of most
people who read the story as told by himself and the
other correspondents. He also seems disposed to admit
the possibility that the bombing Of the hospitals was
not exactly intentional-.that it may have been nothing
wofse than a failure on the part Of the raiders to take
due and proper care in the distribution of their deadly
tn3atles. At any rate. he said that there was no way
70 lisprove the statement of the German commander
Gkak he and his men had no desire to kill wounded SOL
dien and their nurses. 4.
what Mr. Gibbs thinks As-te the adequacy OF this
A16nipahon can be easily imagined, as can also his
optaion OF the same colnrnanders cynical Impotence in
declaring. that II the English would build their hospitals
naAs railways they must expect thAm to suffer.
Incidentally. the, German who led the raiders and

ner. and II his words and his acts alike have been per-
meated with a certain spirit, that fact Is practically con-
elusive when an Interpretation Of any particular remark
10 sought.
Just now two men in the northwest are quite busy
either by themselves or through their agents, in inter-
preting their own remarks. These men are A. {. Town
Icy and C.. A. Lndbersh. Mr.. Townley told a congress
sional committee the other day that he had never made
a speech in which he did not urge the sale Of bonds
the subject of Liberty bonds being then under consider
alton. Others. speaking in defense Of Mr.. Townley, have
reported that at this or that meeting he has supported
the Red Cross, advocated the purchase Of Liberty Bonds.
and so forth.
Mr.. Lindbersh wrote a book and published it Hast
year. From the pages Of that book have been taken
many quotations in opposition to the war. Mr.. Lind
bergh is kept busy explaining that he did not mean IL
that, way, and he reads other excerpts to show that he
could not have meant the dlsloyal things that have been
attributed to him. -
The fact is that both Of these MGR have records. and
they have conducted themselves In such a way in the
past that a certain Interpretation. and only that interpre-
taton. Of their recent remarks is consistent with what is
generally known of them. Both men have regularly
sneered at the American government and have persist
entity sought to create the impression that this is a rich
mans war, prompted by the rich men Of the United
States for the purpose Of making themselves still richer,
these despicable characters. Can anyone point to a syl-
liable that has ever been uttered by either of these men
declaring that the United States is at war in a righte-
Gus cause? That our entry into the war was %justifiable
and necessary? Not a syllable. Their attitude has been
that Of antagonism to the essential purposes Of the Unit
ed States in the war. and their language is to be inter-
preted in the light Of that attitude.

DRIVING MORE SLOWLY

There is a marked difference between the progress
being made in this German drive and that which began
on March Fl. In the former case the greatest progress
was made In the first three days. Then each day, while
it was marked by some gain, witnessed a slowing down
until things were at a standstill. AS against the advance
of the first drive, on a 60-mile front, we have in this case
an advance of five or six miles on a 2o-mile' front, with
the advance stopped on the third day after the begin
ming. -%
It is not possible for the Allies to make their lines
invulnerable at all points. There cannot be an equal
distribution Of men all along the front. Some places
will naturally seek out those weaker places and strike
there. Gains are to be expected by whichever side is do
ing the attacking Whether or not these gains will be
worth their cost is another matter. -
1t is apparent that the purpose Of the Allies is to
hold their lines as well as they can with the smallest
force that is adequatue for that purpose, and At the same
time to cause the enemy to put forth his maximum effort
and use up the greatest possible number Of men. The
Allies have the advantage OF knowing that the enemy
must keep moving. The moral effect OF an abandonment
of the offensive would be fatal, and every military con-
sideration demands that the Germans win a signal VIC
tory before the arrival Of American troops by the million
make it apparent to both German high command and
German people that not only is victory impossible, but
that total and irretrievable defeat is inevitable.

TAWDRY TRAGEDY

Grace Lusk, the Waukesha young woman, whose
story has occupied considerable space in the papers Of
late, has been convicted of murder in the second degree
for shooting Mrs. Roberts, the wife Of the man whose
paramour Miss Lusk had been. 1t is difficult to see
how the jury could have done less. 1t was scarcely to
be expected that it would do more.
1t is not necessary to review the nauseating story.
The tragedy was a cheap and tawdry one. devoid OF
anything that tended in the slightest measure to give it
dignity. VI
OF the three persons involved, the one who stands
forth as the most guilty and the most contemplate is
the man who. after>his lust had led to a homicide. sought
to protect himself by shouldering all the blame upon tho
woman who had been partly his victim and partly his
companion in evil.
II somebody had to be shot it should have been the
doctor.

THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 80. 1918.
LETTERS o THE FRONT

The public has become familiar with letters from
the battle front and from the camps in foreign soil from
men who will soon be on the firing line. Many thou
sands Of our people are receiving such letters from their
own kin. And the entire public is familiar with the let
ters from their frequent publication.
One thing that is to be noted in connection with
thtese letters is the spirit Of cheerful determination that
evidently inspires their writer's. All sorts Of incidents
are related, and all sorts Of conditions are described.
But where the incidents are annoying and the conditions
uncomfortable, there is no complaint. There is a cheer
fnl acceptance of what the fates send, and a good
humored determination to make the best Of it. But
whatever the conditions. the desire of the American SOL
der is to get to a place where he can do effective serv-
ice against the Hun. There is no difference Of opinion
about that Most of the soldiers want peace. Few Of
them expect to continue in the military life. It has
no charms for them. They want to get back home and
take up again the civil work with which they are ia
niliar. and into which the war has been thrust as an
unwelcome interruption. But with all of them there is
the realization that before the desire of their life can be
Of a partial victory or an imperfect peace. There is no
have started in on a big job, and they are there to see
1t through.
Another feature to be noted in vsry many Of these
letters is the reaching out through the distance for the
grip Of a friendly hand. There are no tears, and there
is no mourning. But, whether expressed In words or
not there is evidence in practically every letter of the
desire to keep in touch with the home folk, and to know
that across the void the home folk are keeping in touch
with them. And the more Of our men go to tho front,
and the more strenuous the struggle in which they are
engaged. the more necessary it will be for the rest OF
US to keep the home fires burning. for those home fires
mean a lot to the men at the front.

ONE VICTORY QUITE Mc0NcLUSIvE

Orville Wright. who knows a thing or two about air.
planes. admits the possibility Of giving them some de-
gree Of protection against machine gun fire by covering
them with steel plates. He insists. however, that in do
ing this the Germans have produced a machine Of such
narrow limited utility as to be inferior to the unarnored
planes. @ .
The accuracy Of this Judgment 10 easily credible, in
spite of the fact that Major Lufbery seems to have lost
his life, in spite Of his skill. while battling with an aerial
tank" A single conflict with an armored airplane
proves little or nothing as to the merit Of the innovation.
Before now, and not infreduently, German aviators not
thus guarded have been victorious against aviators even
Of his ability. ana it may be thatvn this case also the re-
suit would have been the ane-that the American ace"
void have fallen and Lis enemy escaped his firs-Aven
IL the fight had been on even terms % regards protec.
ton.
To make an airplane slow and clumsy for the Aks
of a problematical safety for its operators would evident
~ be a bad bargain. AS an experiment, 1t was interest
ing. but it would appeal to few other than German minds
and it is not to be forgotten that, according to present
accounts, the machine against which MAJOR Iufbery con.
tended with such lianeptable results was wreeksd . few
hours or minutes later BY mon in Just such machines; q
his-New York Times.
