GREECE AND THE WAR

Greece has been actually in the war Just about as
long as the United States. And on the anniversary of her
entrance a few days ago, it was announced that Greece
had an army Of 200, 900 men on the Balkan front ready
for service. and actually rendering excellent service at
that time.
One cannot compare Greece with the United States
as all the conditions are so dissimilar. Greece is small
and her army represents a very large percentage of her
population. On the other hand, because of her location
in one of the very centers Of disturbance, it has been
necessary for her to maintain a considerable army in
order to protect herself from the immediate invasion
which was threatened. But the 100000 Greeks now al
the front will form a very acceptable addition to the Al
lies forces, and while the war will not be won in the
Balkans, the developments in that district will have an
important bearing on the final result.

FRIDAY EVENING, JULY S, 1918
CELEBRATE TO SOME PURPOSE

One of the most unique, and, from our standpoint,
celebrations of independence day was that staged BY a
body Of Australians, who, in special recognition of the
occasion, broke into the enemy's lines east Of Amiens,
wrested from him several villages, and captured 1900
prisoners. As such things go these days, 1t was a small
spirit in which it was carried out, and the purpose for
which the special effort was made at this time have
thar Significance.
The cordially with which the United States is re-
gardsd by people in various sections of the British en-
pire has become commonplace. But every fresh mani
festation of the fact is cheering and gratifying. 1t
would be difficult to imagine a better demonstration Of
the fact that old antagonisms have disappeared than the
planning and carrying out Of an elaborate military at
tack on the common enemy by citizens of one of the dis
tant sections Of the British empire in honor Of the day
which commentaries the separation Of the former
British colonies from that empire. And the beauty of
It is that the feeling of friendship and congratulation is
thoroughly sincere.
In our own land the day was marked by many exer-
cises Of a patriotic nature, but Of them all there was
none more useful or gratifying than the launching in one
day Of So new ships by the shipping board, headed by
Charles NJ. schwab. Every one Of those ships is a men
ace to German might, and a messenger Of cheer to the
denocracies Of the world. And the shipping board,
which gave this signal illustration Of energy and capac-
tty. is just getting into its stride.

FULL PARTNERSHIP

1t took a world war to bring the United statcs into
full and recognized partnership with the nations of the
world at large. A species of partnership has existed since
the nation was founded, and the United States has on
many occasions played an important part in the shaping
Of world affairs. But there has been no real conception
OF equality and ~community of interest. 1t is true that
the United States and the other nations have recognized
each other as equals in sovereignty, and the diplomatic
exchanges among them have been filled with expressions
of confidence and regard. But these are formal govern
ment affairs. Generally our people have not quite re-
garded the British and French, for instance, as broth
ers' nor have the British and French recognized them
IN that relationship. This land has been looked on as a
land or promise but the foreigner has been apt to con-
slider our governmental system as an interesting expert
ment by a strange people rather than as something in
which other nations had a common interest. On our part,
our geographical isolation in the early years has left rs
influence on our customs and our thinking. Some of our
people have been inclined to look with a measure of con-
tempt or pity on the rest Of the world, and to hold them
selves aloof from all other affairs than their own. while
others have thought of the United States as the benevo-
lent benefactor of all other nations, and that conscious-
ness of a supposed superiority has at times expressed It.
self in ways decidedly distasteful. to others.
The war has shaken US together with our neighbors.
1t may have accentuated differences due to location, to
tradition, to racial affinity and to other causes. But 1t
has also brought to us and our neighbors the conscious
mss OF common ideals and aspirations, Of a common
heritage of freedom, and OF a common obligation to, de-
fend that heritage. 1t has shown us a common enemy
and a common danger. It has inspired us to a common
effort. And because of all this it has awakened US all
to a feeling Of common brotherhood. 1t has brought to
us and our %neighbors an understanding Of the fact that
we are neither superiors nor interiors, but equal partners
with the progressive nations of the world in the great
business in which the world is and is to be engaged. And
when the war is over, it will leave these nations standing
shoulder to shoulder, on the same plane regarding each
other, with neither feelings Of patronage nor sentiments
of subservtence, but with the respect and confidence
with which equals regard each other. The United states
has in fact become one with the world.

AMERICANS IN ITALY
The u

~ The announcement comes from Rome that the first
American troops sent to cooperate with the italians
nave arrived and are living in their own tents and eat
:ns from their own kitchens. The size and character of
The contingent are not stated, but it is understood that
the unit consists Of some, thousands Of men. We are
given to understand that it is not the purpose Of the
Italy, but rather to have the American army represented
on the Italian front by a contingent which will render
material assistance and at the same time aid by it's pres
ence in cementing the ties Of friendship which unite the
two nations. The latter is the chief purpose at this time.
There is every reason for cordial feeling between the
two countries. When disaster overlook the italian
armies last fall the United States had but a handful Of
American soldiers on European soil, and 1t was not pos
sible that this country could render military aid to her
ally. But there was need Of another nature, and in meet
ing that, Americans played their part, and played it
aob1y. When the Austrian food broke loose and threat
med to overwhelrn northern Italy, hundreds of thous-
inds OF people were obliged to flee from their homes,
abandoning all their possessions, and taking with them
lny the clothes in which they stood. Suffering was in
ense, and no government had the facilities to give aid.
the American Red Cross stepped into the breach, and
NE story OF the manner in which that organization fed
The hungry and clothed the naked will take its place in
The history of Italy with the stories of heroism that have
been handed down since the founding of the city Of
Rome. @
Now comes the American army, represented by its
5SIble body Of infantry, to fight side by side with Italian
folders, and to testify by their presence that in this war
America and italy are one.

II WOMAN VOTE

With the spread OF the woman suffrage movement,
and the effort that Is being made to get q constitutional
amendment extending the franchise before the people
OF the nation. there is a display Of anxiety In several
quarters over the women vote, and evidence Of a desire
to placate and conciliate that vote.
Energy spent on this subject is wasted. There is no
such thing as the women vote. We have had opportun-
ity to observe the behavior Of women at the polls for a
good many years. Women have voted on some subjects
IN most states for a long time. In several states they
have been voting on all subjects for some years. And
the single fact that stands out most prominently in con-
nection is that when women vote they vote as citizens.
and not as women. Except in occasional local contests
In which rare and special conditions tended to array the
women of small communities for or. against certain can
didates. it has been practically impossible to dinerentiate
the women's votes from the mems. In almost all cases
where a separate record has been kept. it has been
found that when the men gave a certain candidate a
majority of their votes, the women gave the same candi-
date substantially the same majority. In nearly every
case the net result Of the womenis vote has been to in
crease the total without affecting the relative standing
or the proportionate pluralities of the candidates.
Whatever other features enter into the subject. It
cannot be urged on the basis of experience that the wo.
mems vote will differ materially from the mems vote,
or that it will change the decisions to be made at the
polls in any marked manner.

General March announced these facts
today and at the same time confirmed
Secretary Of War Bakers announcement
yesterday that a 10000 daily demobifi-
Zation rate had been reached in this
country on the basis OF a six day week
For the week ending December IA,

men. This madea total of over 800, 900
demoblized. Officers dismissed since the
2rmistice signing total 26,9O3 In this
connection, Marh pointed out that the
1916 army register listed only 4,S4O Of
ticers as the army total
when March met newspaper men last
Saturday he announced that $4,000 meS
had been designated for early demobii-
cation in the United States Today he
pointed out that 300, 900 designations have
been made.
American prisoners evacuated from

being made for isolated prisoners, par
ticularly sick OF wounded The above
figure constitutes the bulk of Amer

port service under General Hines was
revealed by March when he showed that
the Leviathan carried an average of
1913 men per trip for ten trips the Fin
land, 40sS men per trip for nine trips;
the Agemenon, 1881 men per trip for ten
trips; the Great Northern, 2.75O men per
trip for ten trips; and the Northern Pa
eiie 2192 men per trip for ten trips
Answering specific questions March
said the war department is not thinking
o taking over New York harbor; that the
s3rd Division never fought, though some
Of its troops may have been in battle as
replacements; that there have been con-
slant difficulties in communicating with
the American forces at Archangel re-
Gently (but apparently there was no rea-
son for concern as to their conditions
whatever); that coast artillery Except

OUR ARMY COOKS

| Domestic training has vital part
! in the military training program Sol
| diers must be cooks as well as athletes
and fighters.
Before they are ordered to overseas
| duty every man in the American army,
! from field officers to privates. is
taught how to cook a meal with his
own mess Kit. Many of the "Sammies"
| make splendid cooks.
Every camp has a bakers and caaks'
school The teachers from these two
schools go into every one of the sew
eral hundred Kitchens in each CAM,
/ with authority to inspect and to in
struct the men assigned to kitchen
duty, and to enforce the regulations.
Among these kitchen rules is one
| that there shall be no waste I'm the
kitchens; and this is rigidly enforced.
| The order includes the mess table.
Rules have been posted in the canton
ments ordering that no soldier should
ask for more than he needs at a meal.
After obtaining a second helping he
must eat all Of it, Violation Of this
order may involve isolation at mess.
Every soldier in the American army
today carries with his Cbesides his
fighting and shelter equipment) snf-
ficient food and water to enable him TO
take care of himself in case he should
become separated from his company
