What Has Been Done
tFrom The New York SUM-

With the situation imposed on the
Grown Princes army by the genius of
General Fooh through the might OF
allied arms changing hourly, 10 would
manifestly be foolhardy TO attempt to
predict what the ultimate outcome Of
tho present struggle In the region
north OF the soissons-Bhelms line will
be, but It would be no less foolish to
ignore what has been accomplished in
the fighting that has already been
done, and what, in general lts effect
must be.
One thing Is plain, and subtlety Of
the German Staff cannot conceal It:
the Crown Princes army has been
licked In every conceivable form Of
warfare by the French, by the British,
by Italians and by Americans. The
forces under the heir TO the throne
have been driven from strOnJholds,
driven from natural positions easily
adaptable for defence. They have been
driven across open country In retreat
and their counter attacks. sklllfully
organized and remorselessly pushed
have been broken up and smashed
They have been outfought and OFT
trlcked; theh retirement has been al
tered TO q pecipitate retrect, and In
some hearts thC hope begins to unfold
TIT before thL end Is reached the
vEro lout may properly be on the lips
q tl,r Alliea.
10 avert this possible rout re-en-
forcements have been se-6 TO the
Crown Price from the Italan front and
from Flanders. This fact dlsclCses the
ls~-reaching consequences Of the tri-
Jmph General Foch has won. II will
rot do to sa;' that the German plans
on other parts Of the line will be af-
fected by the Crown Princes defeat;
they have already been seriously dis
located, II not rendered utterly i'm
practicable. All the labor that went
into their preparations has been for
nothing.
The moral effect Of the defeat at
home and I'm the army is worthy OF
consideration. The troops and the
civil population were told the French
were bled white, the Americans use
less. the British negligible. The truth
cannot he long hidden; the Germans
may take It either way they wish; that
their troops are inferior to bled white

BOTH HaRNLrss AND BENEFICIAL.

IN uBLIG sentiment in Wilmington is strongly in favor
of Sunday baseball for patriotic recreave purposes
II is hoped sincerely by large majority Of VIII
mingtonisns that Judge Churchman. who is a liberal
minded with a broad vein Of common sense, win
sea his way to discharge honorably those baseball
players who arrested the Harlan diamond on
Sunday after they had played game.
That game yves played with two prime purposes in
view One provide heathful recreation for work
ngnen and members OF their families who unable
TO weekday games
The other to obtain funds wherewith to supply
American fighters in Europe with American tobacco
It served both those purpose.
Approximately 5000 persons witnessed the game, and
substantial addition made TO the Tobacco Fund
by voluntary contribution.
In short. entrance fee was charged and It was
optional whether a Tobacco Fund contribution should
be made.
10 would be unfortunate old blue law, which
is invoked only occasions to be applied TO base
ball players engaged in such patriotic service.
And again, If It is to be enforced in the matter Of
baseball, at the demand OF a few persons why
It be enforced against Sunday and recreation OF
an kinds at the behest OF other persons9
These abnormal times and attempt should be
made to them by normal standards. Least Of
all should the blue laws Of deadsndgone generations
be vitazed to interfere with wartime relaxsons and
recreatons which not only harmless in their

Many reasons have been found. any OF which are
sunioent excuse for the banding together OF mothers
sisters and wives Of our soldier boys. This writer
mother advances one we had not thought Of. Il Is
that no in all the world can so ably and thor
oushly combat German propaganda and German fake

OF France. If the War Mothers Of America do nothing
more than reveal to each other they have learned
OF the trckery Of German propaganda and the dangers

They will do this at their meetings and when they meet
each other in homes and when they swap letters they
have received from their boys All the newspapers and
public speakers in this cannot do half as much in
killing off German propaganda.
No doubt the Kaiser wishes the War Mothers OF
America would give up their idea of organizing and
uniting their efforts. Another wish the Kaiser viii

THE SECRET TREATIES.

Publication Of the secret treaties
and telegrams taken from the archives
Of the Russian Foreign Office and gwen
TO the world rs the Bolshcyiki produced
VARYING reactions on that part Of the
reading public that faithfully studied
those documents
The serious-minded people who read
the secret treaties, as a rule, took one #
three different views Of them. Some said
the documents were less sinister than they
had been led 10 expect Others inclined TO
the belief that the treaties were about
what was = have been expected. and
should occasion no surprise. Probably
the largest class Of readers, however.
were impressed by the negotiators pecu-
Iarly cool and subtle watchfulness. They
had d sense Of remoreeless bargaining of
powerful hands clutching for more and
still more
Certainly in these carefully guarded
sealed and signed papers appears the
skilfu work Of the chosen servants Of
autocracy, parccling ont the earth while
millions OF men were bleeding in trenches
or suffocating IN dugouts III the belief
that they were giving their lives for
spiritual and cultural ideals.
In specifically sensational data Il Is
generally agreed, the treaties were not mp
10 expectations. IN tone and posture,
however. they stand as unanswerable
arguments against the continuance OF
secret diplomacy Chicago News.
