The Epic Makers

HH, FOR another singer
~ Like them who sang of old!
They made the cruel tender;
The made the coward bold.
They sang the sinews into men,
The heroes into fight;
They sang the sun into the dawn,
The stars into the night.
But we on whom the awful ends
Of all the world are come
Cry, ana the muses. answer not:
The oracles are dumb
Yet who of all that thrilling choir
Had our high theme for song?
Such rapture Of endeavor!
Such agony of wrong!
"The face that launched thousand ships"
Out of the Argive Bay
Was it more fair than Freedoms
Which launches ours to-day?
To our success King Arthur's knights
Drink in their ghostly hall.
The shadows of our battling arms
Through far-otf ages fall
How shall the mighty theme be sung?
Our words are wan and cold
If God would send singer now
Like the great bards of old!

Up azure spires he ran,
Throated with thunder bowelled with fire
A bird with the brain of man!

On Flanders hcaving plains,
And all the harps since Homer's
Were drumming in their veins.

Around the rushing keels-
Keen eyes upon the castles,
Bold hands upon the wheels.

Sharpen with sudden fear:

Our Siberian Policv

What is the Allied policy in Siberia,
where the heroic Czecho- -Slovaks have
done invaluable work for the Allied
cause and are still being left to their
own resources?
The Inter-Allied War Council has a
plan for backing up the Czecho-Slovaks
and reaping the fruits of their exploits.
An Associated Press dispatch from
Washington on July contained this
statement:
Immediate intervention in Russia,
both military and economic, has been
urgently recommended by the Inter-Allied
War Council and by General Foch The
councils report has been in the hands Of
President Wilson since July 8, and the
diplomatic representatives of the Allies
here believe that he will concur in it,"
What Plan has our government? The
public doesn't know. All it knows has
been gathered from press reports from
Washington describing presumably with
intelligence) the Administrations reac-
tions to the extraordinary situation in
Siberia.
On June 18, about the time that the
outside world was just beginning to
awaken to the Importance of what the
Czecho-Slovaks were doing, a special dis
patch to "The New York Times" from
Washington informed us that
$50 far can be learned no sympathy
for the Czecho-Sloyak movement exists
among those officials Of this government
who believe that the Russian situation
will adjust itself They hold that as
military factor the organization Of former
prisoners will have no effect"
An Associated Press dispatch of June
"a thus summed up the Administration
orientation of that date:
"The Entente Allies are now earnestly
seeking solution of the Russian prob
lem-one which will assist II sdent
Wilson in the execution of his pledge to
stand behind Russia-and latest reports
from Europe indicate that progress is
pelhg made However, it cannot
yet be said that any agreement has been
reached. In fact inquiry at the State
department was met to-day with the re-
sponse that nothing has yet occurred to
warrant any change in the policy which
has been adopted by the United States"
About this time it was announced that
our government favored sending an
economic commission to Russia to helm
along in the work of financial and indus
trial reconstruction. A dispatch to "The
Times dated June 26, said that
The whole project ACCORDING to in for
nation received to-day, is of an economic
and non military character, and there is
good reason to believe that the Admins
tration will not tolerate any suggestion
that the upbuilding of Russia shall be
accompanied by force of arms
All show of military force will be
avoided"
Enforcing this view Of non-militarv
action, an Associated Press dispatch of
June % said:
plans of the American government for
aiding Russia in rehablitating herself.
which became known to-day reveal that
the first step contemplated is informal
assistance through American business
and industrial leaders, and DISPOSE of
widely published reports that diplo-
matte or political mission would be the
means of carrying out President Will
sons promise to stand back of Russia"

Hail, France!

It is with reverence and admlraVloil
that dim the eyes and halt speech that
Americans turn to greet their oldest and
dearest friend, their best and bravest
ally, on this her day.
The story of France is the finest and
rarest in the world. 1t is the story of
romance come true, of the small torch of
faith and hope and beauty burning on
through long years Of doubt and depres-
sion and despair, to blaze up into flame
of consuming glory and passion when
the winds of heaven called.
1t was an impossible task that faced
France in August, 1914. Only now that
we have come to perceive the true inten-
tions of Germany, her long years OF plan
ming, her manifold maneuvres of prepa-
ration, her training of whole people to
hate and to kill, can we realize the mon
ster it was that crossed the fields of Bel
gium and flung forward at the throat of
France. With the Kaiser we're numbers,
we're machines, were all the powers of an
evil imagination and brain.
Against Germany was a nation OF
peace, a nation of liberty. Let US always
be thankful and let us always remember
that the manhood of democratic France
had been trained to fight, however loath
they were to draw the sword. Let US
never forget, too, that gallant handful of
superb soldiers, her utmost, that England
threw to the aid of her beset ally. But
it was the spirit of France, her naked,
shining soul, that won the Battle of the
Marne. Never in the history of the world
was there clearer prevailing of will
over matter, of courage and faith over
darkness and wrong. Some of the
grandeur Of the victory came straight to
days. Each day and month and year
has added to the glory. If France had
done nOIllnS etSc ucT ldllc WOulu Uc
secure through the centuries.
How much else she has done, driven
thereto largely by our own ignorance
and delay, Verdun and <he weary
months make answer. The sword flashed
in the sun on the Marne has never fall
tered since, whatever the night, what
ever the suspense. Her deeds have been
the rallying cry for all the world. "Press
where ye see the white plume of Henry
Of Navarre!" echoes again, with all the
forces of truth and right to answer
1t is not a debt that we pay. What the
world owes France is beyond the price of
generations. 1t is the soul of the world,
in peril, that we worship, and to whose
defence we would devote our lives.
France, the banner of righteousness and
honor; France, the ally that knows no
compromise; France, of clearest vision
and glistening mind; France, the bravest
fighter of all battles and all time-her
we would aid. We cannot picture our
civilization without her. We could not
believe in justice or truth or right if she
should fall. To France, complete and re-
stored, with all her children at her knees,
Alsace and Lorraine among the rest, we
pledge our faith, our honor and the last
drop of our blood!
Thank God, we are coming! Thank
God, we did not fail in the test of ma
TONS May our sword never waver until
victory is secure!
But above all else, thank God for
France

a Mechanism
That Exists

Indeed, the Council of Defence, in its
double form of advisory and executive ca
pacties, provides for ourselves the one cx-
listing machinery at Washington peculiarly
adapted to undertake the work of pre-
hminary reconstruction. 1t is council
only by the necessity Of needing a name.
Actually, it is great and sensitive organism,
a nerve system, reaching out into every big
and little community in the nation carry
ing impulses from the people to Washing
ton. 1t is an intricate formation of COM
munication trunk lines. That it has beer
superseded now for war by the newer
mechanisms of the Overman act is only the
result of having completed its first work

tion has come in the natural development.

the utmost Importance to which answers
must be found. not after, but before the
conclusion of the war, if the determina-
tions Of Parliament were to be satisfac-
torily translated into action"
Some of the reconstruction matters that
have occupied the attention of the English
government have been agricultural policy,
demobiization of the army, rehabilitation
of civil war workers, coal conservation,
aliens, forestry relations between employ
ers and employed, women's employment,
health Of the public, adult education, hous-
ing, unemployment, physical training, tn.
supply of raw materials, shipping, juvenile
employment, rural development, social de-
velopment, financial facilities for commerce
and industry, preservation of industries,
establishment Of new industries, improve
ments in trade organization.
These are scattered and various groun
of activities they are presented. but act
ually the British Ministry of Reconstruct
tion is organized as intensively and amply
as our own Council of National Defence.
