THE German people and the Ger man leaders are just awakening to the danger of American intervention. The socialist leader-Herr Scheide- mann-said only few days ago that if France and England were beaten the kaiser still would be unable to claim victory for America would re- main undefeated. The Germans are just emerging from one of their big gest delusions. Possibly the kaiser will keep up the policy of camoufiage which has been used to keep his sub- jects in the dark, but it can avail him nothing. The truth about America $ part in the war-unchecked by the submarine-is gravitating to the very heart of Germany.

If the sprinkling of intellectual luminati were not stamped by genius. it Is prob able that m ordinary bystandrr would have tapped his forehead knowingly.
 One of them was telling about a sci entisi who is already tplcphoning to airplanes without wires. And another quoted farnouS inventor who said that 1t would only bc short while until all telrnhonr wires would be abol- iSh"d as uncsscntial.

France monthly. nor by what particu- lar line they booked passage. But some interesting facts regarding the transport of our men to Europe have been given out officially. They con- vey nothing of vital importance to the enemy except that the United States is not in the war on fifty-ffty basis
 For instance, the secretary of war says we shall have 500,O0O troops in France "early this year" We may assume, without trying to ampllfy his information. that there are prac- tically half million men behind the battle front today. But that is only half as many men as the nation has ready to sail as soon as tonnage for them is mot unpromising." By the end of the year we shall have total of 100000 soldiers in Europe or en route if the present program is car ried out.
 The problem of transporting this tremendous army a distance of 5000 miles by water is stupendous. and the people probably have no conception of the vastness of our program. That troop ships are shuttling back and forth across the Atlantic carrying American troops is we'll known. The government says sixteen great Ger man liners, seized in American ports and totalling 5OO.o00 tons-an aver age of over 30,O0O tons each-are en- gagged in this task And these are on- ly a part of the ships in transport service.
