iay Is due to many reasons A month
 VIII have elapsed before the Germans
 have withdrawn to the east bank of
 the Rhine, It is possible to believe mat many other weeks will have passed before 3 responsible government Will be formed iii Germany with which
 the victorious allies may deal. At present every German at home, and many who are in the army, is a reyolu- tienist. During the reconstruction and the formation of q responsible govern nept, the allies must wait For it ia certain that the allies will not suffer the loss of the fruits of their victory through inability of the conquered to fulfill the terms they have signed
 During all this delay it will not only be necessary for the allied armies to remsin at their posts, but to remain ever on the alert and with bayonets fixed. Unless conditions in Germany and Austria show early radical im- provement, it may be necessary for General Foch to police the countries In that eventuality, years might elap psa before the army of the United States may in safety be withdrawn. And as another complication, it is certain that peace will be restored to Russia be- fore the day, in every respect, is con sidered won. The stabilization of Rus sia will require skillful diplomacy, per- haps considerable bloodshed, and cer- tainly much time. Years are required to rebuild but war can destroy in an

MANY MONTHS WILL .ELAPSE BEFORE BOYS GAN RETURN HOME Responsibility of Nation Does Not Cease at the
 Signing of Peace TWO FACTIONS ARE
 FOUND IN CONGRESS One is Belligerent and Insists on Maintenance of Big Standing Army and Great Naval
 Expansion
By HUGH w. ROBERTS

Washington, November 16.-tSpe- cial. )-The parents of the nation, who during time of battle, suffered the separation from their sons with stoical fortitude, are now, with the coming of peace, ciamoring for their return.
 Some of them are asking members of Congress 10 secure the release of the boys by Thanksgiving, and the most considerate are asking that the fulfill ment of their wishes be delayed no longer than Christmas
 There is no way in which nation wide disappointment can be obviated. It is probable that certain releases will be granted from camps which are within the borders of the United States Many months will elapse, howeye, before the boys vii be returned from France. Some estimates are that two years will have gone into history he- fore the last American veteran is back on American soil
 NO RESPONSIBLE ENEMY
 In this connection it must be re- membered that at this time no date for peace conference has been set. De

WRONG IMPRESSION

Tells American Editors Some Inter- estIng Facts About Submarines and Importance of Accurate
 Information
Dy F. W. BARRETor

London, october 20-Admiral Sims speech at a recent luncheon to the Amer ican newspaper men is we'll worthy of reproduction. It tells the story of the submarine and Is well worth the reading Here it is in full:
 "If the chairman had not asked me if I should like to speak, would have asked his permission to do so, because I want to say something to you gentle men about A1nerica's part in the business of cooperating with the allied navies. Possibly I may be able to tell you two or three facts which have not been brought to your attention Of course. you are all very proud of the America a press. but sometimes those of us vAho know little of the inner histor;r of things are not quite so proud 6fg the American press when we comps,re this history with your headlines. I have no doubt that as d result of reading our press many of you gentlemen, or at least many of your readers, have an idea that the American navy Wrought over almost all, if not indeed all, of the mil lion and a half troops that are in France today. MoreovGg that the Amer way. s TT
 As matter of fact, when the cri- SIS came last Marf3l, the British govern ment made tremf0ldous sacrifices of her World commerce in order to expedite ths passage of American troops. They sdFe up tneir" trade in various parts of the world, and produced and brought more more than 150 ships into the Atlantic. purlng tf@ month of August they nrpusht over nearly two thirds of the Amerlca0 troops who were landed in France.
 ATM-SUBMARINE AFFAIR
 sSS Tor the anti-Submarine campaign, l lh1nk it quite likely that the readers eo@ the American press believe that we have taken very large part in decreas- 2ns the losses of shipping As a matter of fact our material assistance has necessarily been small in proportion to that of the allies. There are about 9guO British anti-submarine craft, destroy CTS, trawlers, mine sweepers, and so forth. operating around the British Isles. l TheN are only about 160 American craft operating with them, that is about per csNt. Conditions are practically the same in the Mediterranean. However, | while the proportion of material assist l ance given by Americans is small, we have the satisfaction of knowing that l ship for ship we are doing our full | share.
 II wonder how many people in Amer l ica really understand what itsis that the l military power of the allies rests upon l today. There are about 5000 anti-subma- rine craft operating in European waters | Ut is these craft that make it possible l for the commerce of the world to reach [ the allies and that make it possible for l American troops to be landed in France | with comparative safety.

PLANS OF CONGRESS

In connection with the discussion of the disbanding of the army, 1t Is evil dent that even at present partisans of two divergent opinions are preparing for a sharp battle in Congress The one faction contends that as the United States has done it's duty. the army should be disbanded in order that the onerous burden of taxation may as soon as possible be removed from the backs of the people. This faction ar gues against the approximation of en- tangllng alliances The other faction Is a War faction. It contends that inas- much as the United States is a world power, it must continue to be--that it will be impossible for the United States, once concerned with European politics. to remain aloof from subse- quent European qu1rrels
 This faction apparently the stronger-insists that it would be folly for the United States, having at exorbi- tant cost constructed storm pit, to destgcy that storm pit in the very in stance the wind has expended its force. This faction will insist on continu- ous building programme for the navy, q standing army of at least one mil lion men, Legislation holding the s.000,-

 Sam Will John of Selma, says he saw such saw iron in Mobile way hack in 1861 and the editor of the Journal knows Colonel John to be trnthf,1l man and believes every word he sars Listen to this from the Mobile Regis ter:
 There has been some correspond ence published in the Scientific Ameri- can relative to the use of the toott less saw in the cutting of iron the date for such use being traced har,S to 1884 by one writer; but Col Sam Will John of Selma, writes to tha Scientific American that as earIv as December. 1861, he witnessed the cut ting of iron bars with saw. here in Mobile. where two gunboats for tne Confederate government were under construction.
 He writes further that in. 18s5 tba contractor who had bought the mata~ rial of the Confederate nav1 foundry at Selma.

wv tPualniH& veterans subject to call within a specified number of years and the institution of universal military training
 FOR UNIVERSAL TRAINING
 With reasonable certainty it can be stated that Legislation instituting uni versal training will be adopted under which every American boy, between certain ages. will be required to give so many months in each year to tho service of his country. The advocates of this Legislation are moved through two fundamental reasons. The first is based on the certainty that when next called upon for duty the United States will he a nation of soldiers skilled in the manual of arms and in certain limited maneuvers. The other is based on knowledge that vigorous military training. extended throughout the growing years, will develop a na- ton physically excellent.
 1t is also probable that legislation will be enacted limiting the standing army to 1,00e,000 men. The law now limits the army to s75,oO0 It is true, however, that of all men under arms at present not more than 100000 can be held when peace is actually fact.

enlistment is too slow, and there is no question but that the government will suggest legislative means for increas- ing the number by holding a portion of those already in the service. And in securing this legislation, the big army faction will advocate, and score suc- cess in their undertaking, 1t is be- 1ieveo. that the army be maintained at the 1,00c0 standard. As far as tha navy is concerned. Secretary Daniels has already officially announced that no one of the contracts for ship con- struction will be withdrawn, and that the three year building programme, with 1919 10 run, will not be abridged. He has also stated that all navy yards. in course of construction. will be com lleted.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Brotherhood

To the Editor of The Herald:
 The crucible of war has developed the spirit of brotherhood among men. Wealth and position are no barrier be- tween comrades in arms upon the bat tlefield. People from every cline have come together, all fighting in the same holy cause Their oneness of interest obliterates all hate and prejudice born of difference in creed and circumstance of birth.
 All are equally welcomed to the tent of the Y. M. c. A., the hut of the Sal vation Army, the camp of the Catholic orders and the Jewish welfare quarters Through the mellowing influences of suffering and sympathy, all have come to realize the Independence of men the world over. To all alike has been revealed the divine in man.
 And out of the mighty conflict shall be born the great fraternity of men.

North Portland, Or. Jan. 1.-THE

the best quality, and that especially
in the cattle market, that has been
shown on the local market for some
weeks past. The sales for this week s
opening would Justify a quotation OF
lie for o top on steers, and an $50
top ON "shc stuff. The best load OF
cattle in the market Monday morning
crossed the scales at $10.75, with an
average weight of 1862 pounds. II an
other 80 pounds had been added to the
weight Of these very choice cattle,
they would easily have commanded
lie. We do not consider that this rep
resehts any advance in price on the
top end Of the steer market, but me

class of heifers showed an easy % to
soc advances, as did also all. the lower
grades, including calves and bulls
The best hcifers in today s offering
changed hands at 1925, although we
are only quoted to an &c top. The fol
lowing quotations show the range OF
prices paid: Medium to choice steers,

In the hog market conditions were

cent of the offerings passing the scales
at the top of the quotations than had
been shown in the previous week s

field hospitals in Italy, many of which
were lost or damaged in the retreat of
the Italian army. No appropriation has
yet been made for this last enterprise,
