artillery and machine guns, automatic
rifles and small arms--havo been provided
by manufacture or purchase for every sol
dier in France and are available for every
soldier who can be gotten to France in
1915" he must mean that the War De-
partment has purchased such arms in
large part from the French-a wise and
necessary arrangement under the circun,
stances, but one which does not by any
means argue a high state of military
preparation on our part
1t would be better to face more frankly
the fact that we cannot give the French
and British decisive assistance at the front
in 1918. We shall do the best we can The
French and British governments know
what we can do. SO does the German gov
ernment. But the French and British
publics ought to know as WE'LL SO that they
will not suffer a bitter dsllusionmcnt
And our own people should know too. so
that they will not relax for a moment that
high pressure which is needed to keep our
machinery of preparation working at top
speed. We have to overcome the handi-
cap of late start. But for that very rea-
son let us avoid covering over our def
Iciencies-either from ourselves or from
others. IF we do our utmost we shall ar
rive on the battle line in time.

Asbestos Truths

For an al-round statement OF what
every American ought 70 know and think
and feel we commend the speech of Sen
ator Kenyon. recently returned from trip
over the French front. 1t bears all the
marks OF hard fact as distinguished from
hazy hopes and distant dreams Would
that all OF our national legislators and Of
ficials could thus visit the trenches and
look the war in the eye!
Senator Kenyon--like every one else who
has seen the works of the Bochc at close
range-has no Illusions Of an early and EASY
peace. We must send 100000 men to the
front. We must build 10000 aeroplanes
We must repulse the idea of patchedup
peace tor just what it is, German trick.
We must stop quarrelling. We must drop

When Wars Will Cease
Only When Conditions That Give
Rise to Them Cease

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Much is said nowadays about ar
ranging things as to prevent all danger and
possibility Of future wars. But future wars
cannot be prevented by any present affirma
tive means. Wars will cease when the con-
ditions which give rise to wars cease, and not
before.
Nor is it best that the danger Of any future
war should be made impossible il it
could be. If the human race could be abso-
lutely guaranteed that war never again would
occur such a guarantee would not be benc
the human race at once would begin to de-
generate into state of imbecilty and say =
agcry. II the human race were perfect, such
a guarantee would be we'll; but in that event
no such guarantee would be necessary, for
would be impossible.
Wars will cease when the causes of war
ccase-that is, when civilization has pro-
gresaed to such extent that men will not
care to fight and will be willing to settle their
differences by peaceable means. Until that
time arrives it is best that the danger Of war
the danger Of war helps to keep humanity on
its good behavior and to avoid those things
that cause war
All the agreements and conventions Of man
cannot prevent future wars SO long as great
masses of men disposed to resort to force
as cure for grievances, supposed or real.

partisan politics. We must, each Of us, do
not only our bit, but our best.
That is the sort Of hard truth that every
soldier at the front knows by years of hard
experience. Does it discourage the soldier
at the front? Docs it make him waver
and turn hopeless and clutch at any straw
Of peace, as the imagined war, seen from
distance OF 5000 miles, makes our weak,
knecd Americans turn pale and long for
peace, any old peace, provided it comes
quickly? About AS good All answer as we
have seen is quoted by Senator Kenyon
from the lips of q Scot, lieutenant in the
British army, speaking near one of the
battlctields: "Of course we do not like
this. We would like to go home. But we
will fight this thing through, and the
Kaiser has no more chance Of whipping us
than a celluloid cat has of catching Al
asbestos cat in hell
Or than "The Evening Post" has of sur
rendering Alsacc- Lorraine to Germany.

"A. c.. c., Then and Now

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir Your roasting Of A. G.. Gardiner, the
British pactst editor, in your to days leader,
entitled "Beated Patriots" is most enter
tanning reading. Not only our British ed
ltors, but also our academic dons, who in the
old days listened to the lightest whispers
from Germany if they were oraces,
are now seen flying from pacifists
AS from a pestilence, and, like st. Peter,
denying that they had ever known them. "
Mr. Gardner accuses Tho Tribune of garb~
ling his statements and misrcprescnting
his attitude toward the war. Let him be
Judged by his own words.
In "The Daily News Of August !. 1914,
three days before the war declaration Of
Grea! Britain, Mr.. Gardiner wrote:
"Lct US make it clear that unless and until
British interests attacked we will have no
part ir this world insanity. We can save Eu-
ropc from by telling the Gar that he
must fight his own battles. If the British
government does this it will do the greatest
service to humanity in history. If it does not
do it 1t will have brought the greatest curse
to humanity in history
Mr.. Gardiner was the dupc of German
propaganda, and believed that the Car
brought on the war while Germany was inno-
cent as lamb. He also tried to keep Eng
land neutral that Germany might "get away
with it," He was thus an accomplicc Of the
ssination of Belgium, ETC.
Mr.. Gardeners attack on The Tribune only
shows what desperate straits he is in to de.
fend himself by such denals of his past his
tory, and he even outdocs Mr. Ridder

Close the Churches
Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May be allowed to suggest that the
temporary closing Of our churches through
out the city would help to alleviate much
OF the suffering caused by tho coal shortage {?
Most Of them are we'll heated and have con-
siderable coal stored in their cellars. which
could be sold or given to the poor.
This would mean no economic loss to any
enc, nor spiritual either, as people could
worship in their homes either in family
groups or meetings held in heated parson-
ages or homes Of members, for did not our
Lord say, "Where two or three are gathered
togetherfin my name, there will I be in the
midst?
Ii we must close our schools. whv NOT
our churches, many of which are heated and
kept open all the week. not only for worshjp
but for business and social meetings. which
could just as we'll be held somewhere e,sn .
Surely our church members should be th :,
iirst to show spirit Of charity and unse]fsh !.
ness This would have a tendency to draw
more people into the churches than all the
sermons preached from their puIpits.

A Decisive Victory

The passage Of the suffrage amendment
by the House, amid stirring scenes of
tribute to the women who have fought so
long and hard for the ballot, is a signpost
ct real national progress. 1t registers the
first national advance won by democracy
IN America as a consequence of the war.
1t is the fruition of long effort, of pro-
longed sacrifice and labor by q dstin-
9u'shed line Of devoted women. Yet we
should he blind to the forces Of the crowded
hours in which VIC live did We not per
celNe that IT. is to the ferment of world
war. to the revaluaton of men and wom-
en-, of their abilities, their courage, their
worth as plain individuals, that this vast
change is now due. The stress and
strain Of few extraordinary years have
demonstrated facts to the undoing Of
prejudices based on generations Of tradi-
tion and habit.
The achievement of a two-thirds vote in
the House seems a miracle in view of the
opposition which heretofore existed. To
great extent it represents genuine re-
versal of judgmcnt-~the same reversal of
l"uS"teilI WHICH carried InlS Statc Tor SUI =
frage last November. TO lesser extent
it is simple acceptance of the fact that
the nations decision has been made. Suf-
trage was unquestionably coming. Every
political party supported it. At the last
Presidential election every candidate for
President was an avowcd sufrragist The
only question remaining was how soon the
nation as nation would act
The House has now spoken. We hope
that the Senate will show an equal spirit
of progress and foresight. The nation
needs the courage and wisdom of it's wom-
en- as never before. May we enter upon
the crucial years ahead with the full
strength of our women pressing forward
shoulder to shoulder with our men,
