A SHIP IN TWENTY SEVEN DAYS

 So much have had to humiliate in pro crastnations and delays in fitting ourselves to win this war that we may perhaps, be pardoned for a little self-congratuaton over the remarkable achievement of building ship in twenty y-seven days.

President Wilson made several things clear in his recent New York address, opening the Red Cross drive. One that there is limit the efforts this country is prepared to put forth in order win the war. If it takes 5000, 900 men if it takes going to furnish them.
 Another statement that is spendidly significant in view of the likelihood of Teutonic peace drive, as soon as the great blow the west front has spent itself, is the declaration that America intends to stand by Russia as well as France With Russia, of course he meant in- cude all of the smaller peoples who would be crushed beneath the yoke Germany if the Mtel Europa scheme were carried out, just Belgium is included with the reference to France.
 In other words Germany be allowed to buy the right, by surrendering what she has taken from France and Belgium, to dominate Rus sa and the Balkans. No statesman the Allied side has yet made this point clear, and the Presi- dents declaration is timely and unequivocal
 The effects of the New York address have already been far-reaching. First Great Britain France and Italy which have been called upon to bear the supreme test of renewed ofensves of the desper- ate Buns, have been inspired by the assurance that America will them through They know what we already have in tho firing line. but it is not circumstance to the help that is on the way Americas military power is already a factor in the war in few months it will be tie determining factor.
 The declaration with regard to Russia should give the unhappy people of that country Serbia Ru- mania Poland and the Jugo-slavs of Austria hope They not to be abandoned to their fate, so long as President Wilson has anything to say about it It also notice upon the pacist elements in Great Britain and France, assuming that such an element exists in the latter country that the United States will consider the until the original of justice to all oppressed nations and permanent world peace assured.
 The President expressed, eloquently and appropri- atey, the sentiments of the American people If the rulers of Germany, drunk with visions of power and bloodshed, cannot yet realize what means to rouse a sleeping giant, they and their willing dupcs must pay the penalty.

 In address to the Jovian League at Luncheon recently, Prof Heller said: .The degenerate Ger. many that made this causeless, senseless war is the unnatural enemy of the Germany we loved anc the world admired That is a test which every Germantown or descended person must make fo, himself If he feel the distinction hotweer the military-mad and ambition-crazed Germany of the present ana the fatherand of his dreams he is not yet an American Again. Prof. Heller says.

 childrens children to get into this fight with

 both feet. both fists and to a finish The blood
 has had us say and it has spoken loudly
 Now let reason and conscience have the floor
 Now let us hear from of the men who are looked up to by the German born population of St Louis and the State their leaders in noIitical and economic matters. Do they agree with Prof Heller and Prof Meyer, are they going to le. the college professors and Hermann Hagedorn dc all the talking?
