German Tanks Failures;
French "Mosquifos" Win

And with this failure Of the German
tanks-iust brought out a few month:
ago-comes the news that the new
French mosquito" tanks, after thor
ough tests in a number Of actions, have
proved good offensive weapons.
1t is to be expected that the Ger
mans will try TO copy these also, in
asmuch as the capture Of couple OF
them in initial experimental raids was
reported some time ago.
Since Marshal Foch used them so
in his big counter offensive
Allied officials expect that the Germans
Will discard their useless first copy"
and try again.

Glenn r.. Miller Of North Side Too
Valuable for Overseas.

Washington, June 2S.-G1enn r.
Miller, a North Topeka boy, who for
the past few years has been engaged
in railway work in Texas, just missed
going to France. He was commits
stoned a lieutenant in the aviation
section Of the signal corps last Octo-
Der, and IN March the command with
which he was connected was ordered
to seaboard. Just before embarka-
ton, Lieutenant Miller was asked to
come to Washington, where the ques-
ton was submitted to him as to
whether his extensive railway expert
ence would not make him more valu-
able in America than he could pos
sibly be in France. He told them of
his desire for foreign service, but left
the decision with his government. In
consequence, he he's been sent back to
San Antonio. Tex, as a representative
of the signal corps in charge of the
movement of troops. q work in which
his experience both in and out of gov
ernmental service has been consider
able and which gave him an expert
government. He has been recon-
mended for a promotion to cap
taincy.
Glenn Miller is a son of Elmer E.
Miller. who still claims residence in
North Topeka but who came to
washington when the pension office
was discontinued in Topeka and con-
solidated with the office at Washing
ton.
Another son, Elmer E, Jr., Is now
first sergeant and stationed at Fort
Worth. He was in the Mexican border
service.

WAR CAUSE FOUR YEARS AGO
After -Four Years Germany Still I'm
able to Conquer World.

New York, June 28.-Four years
ago today the Archduke Franz Fer
dinand, heir to the Austro- Hungarian
throne. was assassinated by Serbian
fanatics. In revenge for this crime.
Austria Hungary tried to make vas
sal state of Serbia and thus gave to
the German n1ilitarists an opportunity
to bring about the world conflict
which they had long been planning
for the time when they could be sure
of the dual monarchy's support as an
active and willing ally.
This was the cause OF the war. On
the fourth anniversary of the Arch
duke Franz Ferdinand's murder. the
German militarists are gathering to-
gether in anxious conciave because the
German government has been COM
PEELED TO declare to the reichstag that
peace cannot be won on the battlefield.
1t has required three years and eleven
months of fighting to extort this con-
fession from Germany. The vast
dreams of pan-German ambitions that
made international outlaws of the Ho-
henzollern warriors cannot be realized
by force of arms.
Military Machine Has Failed.
The German military machine
which was ready for instant brigand-
age on the assassination of Franz
Ferdinand, is no longer able to keep
up its bold front of assured victory.
Inc macn1ne mas ralled. Won huenl-
mann, the third foreign minister
whom Germany has called to subserv-
lent office under the militarists during
these last four years, has declined to
conceal any longer from the German
people the fatal defect of the machine
which is so relentless in it's futile sac
rifice of German manpower.
Will Be Further Painful Efforts.
The four years from Franz Ferdi-
nand to Won Kuehlmann mark the
shattering of the IIohenzollern ambi-
ton to rule the world by force of
arms. There probably will be further
painful efforts by Won Hindenburg to
rehabilitate the reputation of the Ger
man army. They will be in vain.
Won Kuehlmann's words are ring
ing turnout Germany not to be for
gotten. They soon will be ringing in
the ears of the soldiers who will then
know that in every future German Of
fensive they are dying in vain for
victory
Four years after Ferdinand's death
disquiet has gripped Germany. De-
moralization is the next condition the
kaiser must face unless he publicly
abandons the worship of militarism.
