But the situation now is not so sim
pie as it was in '9S. In this very evil
character of the Turkish government
and nation our government finds a
reason for remaining technically at
peace. The President is said to have
passed the word to Congress, and in
directly to the public. that he fears a
declaration of war against Turkey
would be followed by the massacre of
Americans in that country. and by the
destruction of American property and,
worse still, of all the fine philan-
thropic institutions and movements
carried on there by Americans. AS
for Bulgaria. there are said to be
political complications of a sort that
cannot well be discussed
With this explanation, the public
should be content TO leave the matter
to the discretion of our representa-
tives at Washington.

FURTHER STEPS IN
ANNEXATION CASE.

Judge Allan McL4ane heard argu-
mente yesterday in the Circuit Court
at Towson on the petition of John F.
McGraw to require n Bosley Merry
man, treasurer of Baltimore county,
to render a proper bill for taxes on
Mr.. McGraw's property on Park
Heights avenue. which. under the an
neXation law, becomes part of the
city Of Baltimore on January 1, 1919.
Judge McLane reserved his decision,
which, however. is expected to be rem
dered at an early date.
Early in the day Mr.. MerryTnan had
filed an answer to the petition of Mr..
McGraw, in which he raised the ques-
ton of the constitutionality of the An
nexation Law.
Henry II. Dinneen, attorney for Mr..
McGraw, argued that the Maryland
Court of Appeals had positively de-
cided in the case of Daily VS.. Morgan
that the legislature had the power TO
annex part of the county to Balti-
more city without a referendum
T. Scott Offutt analysed the answer
of Mr.. Merryman, and argued that the
Annexation Law was unconstitutional
for a number of reasons.
Shirley Carter argued that there
was clearly a federal question in
volved in the case, and that the prin-
ciple involved was the same one that
the Allied armies were contending for
on the battlefelds. Mr. Carter claim
ed that the Annexation Law, without
a referendum, was clearly in conflict
with the federal and state Constitu-
ton.

TUREEY AND BULGARIA.

Most Americans feel that, for the
sake of our own self-respect, we ought
to be at war with Turkey and Bull
garia. Though nominally friendly
nations, they have been helping our
overt enemies. More than that, they
represent, in their war policies and
in their normal character and conduct
principles as evil and menacing as
those of Germany. Americans re-
gard Turkey with special loathing be-
cause of the incredible cruelties visit
ed upon the Armenians and other sub
ject peoples during the war. We de-
clared war against Spain for Cuban
atrocities which, though nearer home,
were incomparably smaller.

ROAD REPAIR.

The New York Legislature has vot-
ed 81 900 600 as an emergency fund for
highway repair and maintenance. The
measure is frankly regarded as mill
tary
State roads were in such bad condi-
ton that the transport from Western
factories of military supplies essen
tial for our armies abroad was seri-
ously hindered Those roads had be-
come for all practical purposes mill
tary roads" and had to be maintain
ed as such The improvement work
decided upon will make them avail
able.
The matter might be looked at in a
still broader way. Today it is hard
to say that any road is not in reality
a military road. Almost every high
way has a war use, just as almost
every industry has. The development
of motor truck traffic has added i'm
mensely TO the transportation value
of rural roads Main thoroughfares
are pretty sure 10 carry war material
of some sort, And every thorough
fare. however remote, is needed TO
carry food. which is just as important
Every State in the Union might well
regard every road as military, and
proceed accordingly to make its whole
network of inter-city transportation
more serviceable. More money ought
to be spent on roads this year than
ever before. Not grated. not wasted.
but spent for value.

CONCLUSIVE PROOF.

The influence Of Prince Lichnow-

bers of COMMUNICATIONS il has been
the final, conclusive REPUTATION OF the
German claim that England was re-

mania-IIerald have time and again
repeated the assertion to our readers
Germany's success in the world mar
kets, attempted to encirle it, The
Lichnowsky memorandum and Won
Jagrow admission have made that
view ridiculous.
In honest reading of that remark
able document by an honest German
diplomat should convince any intel
ligent German citizen of the guilt Of
Berlin government and the innocence
of the allied powers. The New
York World suggests that the fed
eral Committee on Public Information
furnish an authentic copy of all the
German language newspapers in the
country, to place before their read
ers. Are they willing to print il !?

hauled out from an inside pocket

pages giving the Royal Prussian Or
