Books for Soldiers

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: We have had many inquiries, both at
the main library and st our branches, as to
the need for more books for our soldiers,
sailors and marines. The fact that more
than 100000 books were given the Library
War Service Of the American Library Asso-
citation, in the first campaign for gift books,
and the further fact that nearly million
technical books were purchased by the asso-
ciation, Causes the query, What becomes Of
them and why arc more books needed?
Library War Service is to-day asking for
more gift books because large proportion
Of the books, already in the service have
been worn out by constant use. Also, books
were carried into the front trenches and
lost The result is that while at no time
was there over-supply of books, to-day,
notwithstanding the great number Of men
being denobilized, the demand for books is
beyond the ability OF the American Library
Association to meet it. More than 81 600 900
will be spent by the association for refer
ence books, but there is great demanu for
light literature
That IS the reason the association is
asking people to comb their libraries and
send to the New Yor!, Public Library. or anv
Of its branches, as many good novels and
other books as they can spare. New York
City should provide a million volumes for
this Service, and certainly would do so if
our citizens knew the value o. these books
TO men in the service. Just now the need
for books in army and navy hospitals is
urgent and Immediate
This is the first time in the history Of the
world that an attempt has been made to
supply men in armies ard navies with some
thing to read in their leisure hours. The
service for the American soldiers, sailors
and marines has been handled entirely bv
Library War Service Of the American
Library Association, which is officially recoe-
nlzed by the United States government. All
books for tie Red Cross, Y. NJ. c. A., Y. w.
{. A., Knights Of Columbus, Salvation Army.
War Camp Community Service and Jewish
Welfare Board are provided by library War
Service. Libraries are maintained wherever
there are soldiers, sailors or mariner, ans,
to-day Library War Service is operating or
German soil.
The supplying OF books to our fighting
men is much greater Undertaking than
any OF US anticipated when the service was
started, and its continued success densnds
largely upon the answer we receive +o this
appeal for gift books.

IT there is one fact in which every Re-
publican may take just pride it is that
his party's record in the war was clean
and clear. 1t was 100 per cent Ameri-
can. In that record James r. Mann, rep
resentative OF a German district in Chi
cago, has no rghtful share He opposed
our entry into the war. He had previ-
ously advocated an embargo Oh NUM-
lions to the Allies. He did everything in
his power TO make his party in Congress
pusillanimous and cowardly. As he had
no place beside it's patriots, so now he
has no rights in its present success. His
candidacy for the Speakership is often
sive. He has shown himself in past days
utterly unfit for the position of floor
leader. For the Speakership he is doubly
disqualified. The same sure good sense
which refused the Craftsmanship to any
one with any taint Of pro-German SYM
pathies will see to it that Mr.. James t.
Mann is not named Speaker.

remedial legislation, yet lie does not sug-
gest what that legislation should be.
He says there isn't time to legislate
intelligentls, wherefore he threatens to
cast the railroads back let the conse-
Qucnces be what they will, il Congress
does not vote for five years of govern
ment operation.
What an amazing situation!
The government cannot afford to keep
the railroads as conditions are, though
the conditions are entirely of its own
making.
The owners cannot afford to take
them back.
The President has no plan.
The Director General has no plan.
The Assistant Director General has
no plan.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
hasn't even been thought Of.
Unless a Democratic Congress can
work out a plan in q few weeks the
railroads will be turned back to the
owners, and chaos be damned.
lhe oniN alternative IS Tor the eX-
piring Congress to adopt the retiring
Director Generals suggestion and de-
cree FIVE years OF Federal operation.
That. as we deeply believe, would
mean government ownership at last.
This absurd and silly impassc is tie
strongest possible argument against gov
eminent ownership or operation Of any
thing
New-York tribune., 1918-12-20
Why Sink Them :?

In one column of the newspaper we
read that the American delegates at the
peace conference have resolved to adj
vocate the sinking OF the surrendered
German ships. In another column we
read Secretary Daniels on the imperative
necessity of building our navy up to
match the biggest Of all nations'-if for
no other reason than that we, as the
richest people, ought to contribute as
many units of sea power as any one
else to the force that shall hereafter sup
port justice in the world.
1t seems incongruous for US to advo-
cate the destruction Of the German ships
and at the same time to proceed with
a huge building programme. And if the
reason for proposing to sink the German
ships is merely the difficulty of dividing
them up, then we think it would be all
absurd and immoral waste OF human
labor to do it.
New-York tribune., 1918-12-20

The voice of Frank A. Vanderlip is
clear, strong and optimistic. It articu-
lates doctrine Of prosperity, partner
ship and progress.
We can be prosperous if we will be.
Our power over material things is uy.-
limited; therefore, we can do with oppor-
tunity as we will, provided only we be-
lieve in ourselves and act upon that
faith.
Unemployment is silly bugbear in a
country whose chronic problem is how
to find enough labor to perform it's own
work and to meet it's own wants, and
whose raw materials and manufactures.
besides, are in request by the whole
world.
Some people talk about the necessity
of liquidating wages and others about
the necessity of not iiquidating wages,
and they all mean the same thing with
out knowing it. When producer says
wages must come down he refers to fan
tastic wages, which have demoralized
labor ay much as industry and cannot
nationally be defended. When Mr..
Gompers says wages shall not be reduced
he means basic or standard wages, which
nobody proposes to reduce, least of all
we think, the intelligent producers.
That is Mr.. Vanderlip's opinion.
lie takes the case of shipping. The
labor ccst of working a ship under our
laws is four times that of our lowest
competitor, which is Japan, and twice
that Of our largest competitor, which
is Great Britain.
Therefore, shall we sulk OF abandon
the carrying trade to our rivals? Not So
Mr.. yanderlip thinks that by taking
thought Of our special advantages and
calling into play our traditional inge-
nuity we shall be able to compete sue
cessfully in shipping--as in every thing
else to which we have really turned our
rninds-with the highest paid labor in the
world. The highest paid is not neces-
sarily the dearest.
Such is Mr.. Vanderlip's doctrine-bis
and fine ard thrilling. Moreover. it win
pay. It is the kind of seeing that has
made US the richest and most resourcef,,l
nation on eartl-and it has always paid.
But that is noe all. SIr. Vanderliu

News from Paris

On sailing for France Wednesday,
Stephane Lausanne, Of the Official Bu-
reau of French information, sent letter
to The Tribune expressing his astonish-
ment at the following paragraph from
The Associated Press correspondents re-
port on the disclosed phases Of American
cerebration at Paris:
at is not necessary to assume, accord
ing to the view Of American official cir
cles, that the French people would go to
the point of taking issue with their own
government, if it were necessary, to sup
e port President Wilson, for it is the be-
lief OF the American representatives that
no issue Of that kind can arise
If he had waited for the next days re-
port NJ. Lauzanne might have been more
astonshed and yet somewhat comforted,
by this:
"These advisers say that the President,
in explaining his definition of the free
dom of the seas will rcassurc Premier
Lloyd George that he has no intention of
demanding a reduction of the British navy
TO a point involving the unsafcty OF the
empire, but will emphasize his feeling
that the plan of q league will strengthen
the empire"
The thought is fairly complete except
that one has the impulse to add: eng
lish papers please copy"
They do
These, mark YOU, are authorized re-
Elections of the American mind acting
abroad. We are not so sure they are
authentic. Nobody can be sure of that,
except possibly Mr.. Creel, who is prism
through which wisdom in it's rcfractions
is subject to many kinds of phenomena.
We beg those who, like M. Lauzanne,
become hastily exercised not to be too
serious in their reading Of Paris dis
patches, or at least to balance against
such as the two paragraphs quoted the
following authorized inanity:
'It is recalled that diplomatic history
shows that such q conference probably
never accomplishes precisely down to the
last detail what is expected Of it., but it
always accomplishes something
This, therefore, is open diplomacy,

century in surrendering to Greece the
Ionian Islands, not more clearly Greek
For nation which has nobly and steadily
vindicatcd Italian rights to Trieste and
; the Trentino. no other course Is conceiv-
able with respect Of the Greek ire
denta.
The question Of the Greek shores of
the Egean and the Sea Of Marmora, in
Guiding Constantinople, is different
one. We think Of Greece invariably
with classical memories in mind. Athens,
and not Constantnople, is for the West
che true Greek capital. But the Greek
remembers The Byzantine period quite as
vividly as he. recalls the classical age. 1t
cally great, real world power. More
over, with all its vicissitudes, CONSTANT
nople has retained large Greek popu-
lation, Ear greater than that of Athens,
and real Greek sympathy.
By contrast the possession of the
straits involves so many considerations
that it may we'll be that the Greeks will
be persuaded to accept international con-
troll of Constantinople, once the rights
and liberties Of the Constantinople
Greeks are assured Greece is still
small country and Constantinople is a
tremendous burden. AS to the Bulgarian
coast from the old Greek frontier to the
Martha, majority Of it's population is
certainly Greek, but in 1913 Venizelos
wisely agreed to concede it to Bulgaria,
recognizing that to deny Bulgaria the
waterfront of its territories would be to
lay up trouble for the future. The same
considerations will probably be control
ling again.
There remains the question Of Smyrna
and the Hellenic settlements on the
coast Of Asia Minor. These have always
been Greek in sympathy. The Persian
Wars began because Greece, Athens,
chose to defend these colonies against
the Persian attack. Smyrna is a Greek
city and there are very large areas along
the coast as Hellenic as Attica Between
one and two millions of Greeks live in
these districts. Their desire after ages Of
agony and persecution is to become
Greek again, and this desire, based upon
principles which are recognized as con-
trolling in modern history, should be
realized.
A new Greece of eight or ten millions
OF people should rise out of the new set
tlement of the Eastern question. Failure
to satisfy the just claims of the Greeks
will merely leave fresh cause for trouble
and perpetuate old abuses out of which
grew the World War. In Venizelos
Greece has an able and a reasonable ad
vocate; in the American President she
should find sympathetic friend. No part
OF Americas role at Versailles can be
more becoming than that of champion
OF the small nations IN their just de-
mands for liberation and unity.

"ARL SCHURz in his autobiography
gives highly interesting details Of
conversation which he had with
Bismarck during his first visit to Germany
after the establishment Of the empire made
it possible for him to return to his old
home. "With a hearty laugh in which
there seemed to be suggestion Of assent"
writes Schurz, che received my remark that
the American people would hardly have
become the self-reliant, energetic people
they were had there been privy counsellor
or a police captain standing at every r.,.d
puddle in America to keep them from,
stepping into it. And he seemed 70 be
much struck when l brought out the az
parent paradox that in a democracy with
little government things might 80 badly in
detail but well upon the whole, while in
monarchy with much and onnipresent gov
ernment things might go very pleasantly in
detail but poorly the whole'
The tine political insight OF this is now
confirmed by high German authority. 50
far as the old bureaucratic German svster,
is concerned. In an article in the "Frank-
fiirter Zeitung" Professor Max Weber. the
we'll known political economist OF uo;da,-
burg University, points out thai one o.
the chief effects OF that system was to
make the individual feel secure. IN fsa,
that ne vas under the protection OF the
authorities; hence, anything Ike bold inno-
Vations were opposed with timid appreleu-
slons: The result was a "cowardly will to
remain inpotent''
Then Weber goes on, in words which s,-
most seem to have been written to verify
the truth OF Carl Sclurzs remarks: "pre-
cisely the technical excellence Of orr ad-
ministration, the fact that things in q
material sense went we'll in it upon The
whole, caused large masses Of the nson,a
-. to feel at home in that political
structure and so smothered that bride 80
citizenship without which even the srecst
Institutions arc but shadows"
New-York tribune., 1918-12-20

The Secretary Of the Navy, whose
business it isn't, takes part in the dis
cussion of government ownership of rail
roads, with that oddly transparent air of
openmindedness which is the unconscious
camoufage. In this color he says: 81 do
not care rap for the argument that gov
ernment ownership is dangerous or that
private ownership is dangerous. All
am concerned about is, which system will
give us the cheaper transportation"
But in his true mind he says: care we to
hesitate now in the measures OF peace to
take direct and unusual routes to the
goal of the common welfare? We have
made transportation and communication
for the period Of the war a government
monopoly. 1t was necessary, and it's Wis
dom has been established" Riddle
guess whether Mr.. Daniels is for or
against government ownership.
