THE RIGHT OF AN ALLY.

There IS every reason why the war
time prohibition bill should be amend
ed in accordance with the wishes Of the
Italian Ambassador In It's present form
the measure prohibits importation Of
wines, excepting that in transit, upon its
final passage Under the measure also
manufacture Of wine in the United
States can continue until next NAV
Italy only desires time IN which It's
many interests engaged in the expor-
tation Of wines can readJust their business,
and there is no doubt but the bill as writ
ten would seriouly affect a portion Of
Italys industrial life
The wartime prohibition bill Is in
no sense 10 be construed as a strictly
prohibition act II would halt the
manufacture of liquors only because
ii is necessary 10 take such action IN
the interest Of our war And in the
interest Of the war it is just as necessary
for us to cooperate closely with the
industrial interest of our Allies
Italy should be permitted TO bring
her wines into the United States just as
long as wine interests of the United
States are permitted to enjoy domestic
trade.-knoxyille Tribune.

PRESS COMMENT.
GERMAN PEACE OFFERS.

Nor is the United States government
forgctful of the fact that during the
long months of the exchange of notes
between President Wilson and Berlin
the Germans were employing the time
in the creation of a great fleet of subma-
rines, SD that Won liollweg,
then chancellor, boasted that the ne
gotiations over the ruthless use Of sub
marines served the purpose of enabling
Germany to gain time to build enough
of the undersea craft to carry out its
policy regardless Of any action that the
United States might thereby be led To
take. In vain rs the snare set IN the sight
of any bird, say the sacred orncles. And
it is in vain that the peace drive has been
entered upon 1t will avail nothing
other than TO give satisfaction to the Allies
and the United States that they have
succeeded in driving the foe into a corner.
But that foe processes no purpose of
REIMBURSEMENT of territory outright; that
foe promises no rectifcation of wrongs;
that foe says that the Russian treaties
shall be unrcviewed at any peace con-
ference; that foe offers nothing except a
trap. and that foe is absurd enough
to suppose that any such move might be
productive.
Probably the main purpose is to en-
deavor TO gain moral capital. The
Teutons know that the moral sentiment
of the world is now unquali6edlv against
them. If they could have il appear
that the Allies are now bent solely upon
war Of vengeance and spoliation, they
might hope for reversal of the CON
temporary verdict and the opinion OF
history. They are PLAYING 10 the neutral
galleries. Unfortunately they do not
approach the doors of a peace conference
with clean hands They are still holding
their loot tenaciousIy. They are still
unconvinccd of their moral crimes. They
arc without evidences of ponitsnce for
their wrongs against peaceful nations.
There is nothing at all put forth save the
cry that the war is friChtful in its effects.
Everyone knows this And everyone
knows that unless the war shall be fought
to finish there will be laid the foun-
dations for another and worse war twenty
years hence The German autocraia
have never by a single word renounccd
their vaunted aims for world dominion
and the forcible establishment Of their
so-caled kutur over all other peoples -

TOO MUCH.

A senator of the United States receives
a salary of s. 800 900 for the six
years for which he is elected. One of
the candidates for senator from a state
adjoining Ohio IS reported to have spent
through his committee SI50.000 to secure
the nomination For advertising he
spent S35 600; for printing, 0,000;
for travelling expenses, $1,000, and the
rest in ways known to political managers
The theory is that public office Is as
open TO poor man as to a rich man
One may easily imagine, however, how
slight a chance one o. ordinary resources
would have in a contest against this
man who was willing to spend more than
three times his six wears salary merely
to secure nomination Were these
conditions to hold in every state, the
Senate would soon become again what it
was once held to be a rich mems club
Campaign expenditures have been
the subject Of much restrictive leglv-
lation in recent years, but it has not
always reached the mark The authors
of primary reform have accomplished
some Of the things they set out to do,

Mhy Its Anlmosity9.

/ The editorial attack upon the Service
Citizens OF Delaware in the Morning
News oi today is unwarranted and
uncallcd for
Thus far the Service Citizens Of Del
aware. as an organization designed 10
promote the public good, has been above
suspicion And now that it has been
provided, through the generosity OF q
pubhc-spir,ted citizen, with ample hnan-
ciai means for conducting a good work,
II is amazing that its motives should be
dlscredited and demand made that the
community reject the opportunity for
public welfare that such an organization
is capable of performing,
The announced objects of the Service
Citizens of Delaware are admirable and
uplifting And. as Every Evening said
at the time of organization, there is no
reason that the public should not accept
them at face value, a least, until such time
as the integ rity of their purposes might be
successfully challenged by reason of the
actual doings of the organiza ton. That
time has not come yet. The organization
stands as one committed TO sound pur-
poses of public benefit, and nothing has
developed thus far to even intimate that
it viii prove anything else.
As TO the Voters Non-Partisan League,
which the Morning News sustains and
iDdorses as an organization apparently suf-
fcient for all the benefit the co immunity
could ask, it has already discredited its
alleged non-parusanship by coming out
as not only partisan. but factional
organization. entirely committed to the
service Of the New Dispensation Of the
Republican party Of Delaware. This is
something vastly different

competition with German plants; the
despoiling OF the land; the destruction OF
cities, towns, churches; the robbing OF
sacred editiccs and private homes; the
raping Of women; the mutiation and
murder of the very young and the aged;
the robbing of banks, the collection of
indemnity and such villainies as would
fill page-what of themp lie does not
think he can shirk the responsibility for
these damnablc crimes; he knows he can
not he knows that he must pay Belgium
billions of dollars in reparation when the
settlement day is reached.
So it is easy to see how silly and stupid
is his talk of peace with Belgium. But
| how difficult it is to understand how a sane
person can seriously suggest such arrant
nonsense. Germanlike, he regards all
the rest of the world as fools.
The renewed activity of the Hun
propagandists in the last month had
given advance notice of the advent Of this
peace offensive The same old lie is IN
II has been sent through North, South
and Central America. 1t starts with the
assertion that England began the war
and that months before the outbreak of
hostiities she had shifted her money so
| that all the nations wealth would be
available Immediately to apply to war
The kaiscr's agents eventually got the
lying misstatement before the country in
this form:
England has gone TO war 10 secure
the domination of the seas and mcr-
camille domination of the world.
Trance entered the war for ven
gcancc; Russia and Italy for terri
toriaI expansion; and the United
States because otherwise the mN
kets for its output of war munitions
would be closed and its chase of the
dollar among the Allies would bc
ended
All this reads well, but VIC have the
testimony of the Kaiser bosom friend,
Prince LichDowsky, a diplomat, who. IN
his memoirs, declares England did every
thing possible TO avert the war and had
not believed Germany would plunge the
world in blood until she actually had
struck little Belgium with her huge
armies that had been waiting expectantly
for months and months to bc hurled
loose TO plllage the mprcpared world
Or Auhon, too, one Of the great cap
tains Of German industry, has torn the
mask from their prctcnscs by affirming
that nc had been consulted months and
months before the Prussians were turned
loose regarding financial aid for the war
and in return was promised incalculable
riches when tho Berlin came 10 divide

Every ono who claims 10 be an Amcri-
can and sane must he prepared TO meet
this propaganda by which Berlin
hopes to undermine the unity of the
Allies. and save his country from the
consequences Of its own mad act.
10 accept these madc-inGermany
statements indicates an easy gullibIhty-
for they arc hos lies. lies and a lack Of
patriotism that is criminal.
There is only one fact-Cicrmany
planned this war, began il and but for
the close alliance Of three European
Powers and the United States, our chances
Of paying the whole Hun war debt would
