the United States and the Allies in the
matter Of feeding Germany"
II the following suggestion has not
already been made you may deem II
worth publishing.
We were told that in tho beginning
OF the war there were in the United
States some 100000 sympathizers
with Germany, resulting from ties of
blood. business affiliations. SC Whether
this statement Is accurate or not. II is
safe 10 say that there are IN tho United
States many pro-Germans who we
may conclude did not suffer for food
during the war. on the contrary, 30
many OF them as I sec appear remark
ably well nourished Let II be planned
that they undertake the provisioning OF
their fellows from their share Of food
stuffs. The rest of us will then be en-
abied to do more toward what. in my
opinion. Is a better and worthier cause

The Passing OF n Picturesque Bal.
kan King.

The Montenegrin National Assem-
bly, has deposed King NICHOLAS and
his family and has declared n union
Of Montenegro with Serbia. Upon the
war may be laid the responsibility
for this change; but, In reality, the
passing of this picturesque character
and OF the Black Mountain dynasty
has been impending for several years.
NICHOLAS fitted best into the roman
tic age Of Montenegro, when 1t was,
as Mr.. GLADSTONE said, a small ma
ton beating back the Turkish
hordes," patriarchal autocracy
where the Prince knew every one by
name. where the men staggered in
bright uniforms grit with pistols and
yataghans. and the women did the
work. And this was before American
poker and that insidious British mix
ture Of brandy and soda got into the
royal palace Mt Cettinje.
When a well meaning Russian Gar
ina established n young womans
school at the Montenegrin capital,
the girls made up their minds that
there was something besides cultivat-
ing fertile spots on barren mountain
sides and the men were obliged to
bemean themselves by going to work.
The sun., 1918-12-04

When foreign nations built ministries
that overshadowed the palace and
tourists began coming to the new no.
tel the Montenegrlns thought that
there must be quite big world out.
side Of Crnagora. They went to see
what 1t was, and when they came
back expressed open discomfort with
their own paternalistic autocracy.
Then NICHOLAS granted Montene-
gro constitution and a ministry, but
he held the strings so tightly that
the governmental control remained as
before. AT the same time he burst
the prlncely chrysalls and emerged
before an amused and lndulgent Eu-
rope as u full fledged king. To sus-
thin his royal prerogatives he went
in for war. He fired the FIRST gun in
the Balkan war. He rode on q white
horse Mt the head OF his troops into
Scutari-n censorious world said that
the surrender of this Turkish strong
hold was the result of an agreement
between himself and the shrewd AL
bantam, EssAD Pasha, for their mu-
tual benefit. Then he broke Off the
quaint and long persistent friendship
with Russia and went under the pro-
lection Of Austria. Again cruel
world censured him, claiming that he
got heavier perquisite and was
more certain of Its payment. The
Montenegrins endured all this pa
tlently; but when their sncred mount
Lovcen and their capital fell to Aus
trlnn invaders with scarcely n blow
struck in defence of their country,
they arose in revolt. NICHOLAS fed
and set up weak pretence of court
at Neullly In France. But he was no
longer a hero to his people.
1t Is unfortunate for the continue
ton of the house of Petrovlc- Njegos
that fate gave all the character and
brains with which 1t endowed all
NIcHoLAss descendants, as well as
the beauty and charm. to his daugh-
ters. OF his sons, DANILo, the Grown
Prince, was unacceptable to the people
as a successor to his father; M1RKo
and PETER were both said to be living
ON n small pension doled out at VI
emma. They were oil too weak, say
the Montenegrins, to be permitted to
ascend the throne, fact which evil

Are We to Feed tn Aermans7

If 1t is for the purpose of feeding
the German people that Mr.. HOOVER
asks us to forego the lavish and
wasteful habits that characterized
our American Commlssariat before
the war, 1t would be well for him to
say so, and to explain why.
The attitude Of resentment common
among Americans toward any scheme
which includes supplying food for
Germans Is based on two beliefs.
One of them Is that the Germans
have at hand all the food they need to
carry them over until the harvests
of 1910. II this Ia not so, the facts
can be easily established.
The other belief Is that the I'm.

from sentimental tenderness for
Germans rs individuals.

Mr.. Hoover has accomplished mar
wells. He hns done things without

things because he has been frank and
above board In his appeals to his fell

fortunate II In the emergency that

Food Administration to say that such
phrases as liberated nations In Aus
tria," and "these other people whom
we have recently released from our
enemies" which occur in Its present
literature, are commonly regarded as
evaslons, designed to lure us into a
contract the exact meaning Of which Is
not disclosed. Should this feeling per-
slst, the Food Administration would
find itself In serious difficulties.
1t should not be necessary to point
out to the Food Administration that

refute by very lame historical reasoning

Mr.. Kingsley doesn't want a mere
league OF sovereign states; he demands

that such an arrangement would not I'M
pair the home rule" of any constituent
nation, and cites the original apprehen-
sions and later experience of New York.
which hesitated to Join the Federal
Union because 1t would mean the loss of
independence. He says:
New York was urged to stay out Of thu
Federal Union because she could not con-
sent that Virginia or Massachusetts should
determine what she ought or ought not
to do.

Did she. in tho sense you mean. commit
her affairs to the decision of other
States? DO the other States in any snch
offensive way as you suggest dominate
New York because they can outvote

The selection OF New York AZ a his
torlcal illustration Is disingenuous. In the
first place, New York ratified the Consti-
tuition with the provlso that she could
withdraw at will. How about Virginia,
which also ratified with the explicit res

to withdraw from the Federal Union.
What happened?

Htltutionally guaranteed property OF Its
citizens and put to violent death as many
OF the latter as dared openly resist.

FARMS FOR SOLDIERS.
Let Them Have the Unused Land In
the Hungriest Section.

To THE EDITOR or The SUN--Sir. Your
editorial article OF Wednesday, Novem-
Der 81, entitled Land for Returned Sol
diers," IS most interesting. but 1t seems
to me falls TO take !atc ccns.dcrat.o on
one Of the most fundamental facts rela-
tive to this very important question.
One OF the great mIstakes made after
the civil war was the sudden develop
ment of our Western lands To the detrl-
ment of the East and 10 the very set
tiers them selves, inasmuch as vast guam
titles Of food were produced for which
there was no market. Eastern farming
suffered because Of severe competition.
and farm land values went to pieces"
here. while lots Of Eastern money went
into Western farm mortgages. many OF
which were never redeemed.
The great consumption of food Is at
present In the northeastern section of
the country. In this section are also
large quantities Of now unused land. of
splendid agricultural value, We should
look. therefore. toward placing the re-
turned soldiers on land which will not
require too much work to place In good
condition. which must be near good mar
kets and good living conditions. and we
must take only those men who have
after a thorough trial proved their abil-
ity to handle a farm.
The problem is much moro serious
than at the close OF the civil war, be-
cause It Is going TO require much bet
ter type OF farmer for success on our
less fertile land which must be used.
We must see TO II that the soldier
farmer has n fair chance Of success.
