(From The New York SUM.

Look at the casualty list Of any day
and you will be struck by the incon-
gruous contrast and combination Of
names. Or perhaps as a cosmopolitan
New Yorker. accustomed day by day to
the like polyglot confusion, you Will
not be struck by il at all but will ac-
cept it as a matter Of course. II so,
then your absence Of surprise only goes
TO emphasize the point and TO make a
strange matter more strange. For there
is nothing national about the look Of
the list, nothing distinctlvely American
unless it be the very lack Of apparent
] outstanding nationality.
The names appear to have been
! chosen at random from all the nations
Of the EARTH Along with those which
evidence the English origin OF our
| parent stock there will be others plain
| ly French, italian, Irish, Span
ish, Scandinavian, Greek. Armenian,
German-what you VIII: and yet
others too foreign even to locallze,
names vaguely oriental. names OF the
Slav from Central Europe, or the
Balkans. names of the international
Jew. Probably there was never such
an army in the world; not I'm The Cru
saders. nor under the gathered power
OF Persia, nor behind the eagles Of i'm
perlal Rome.
These men gave blood and life as Of
one nation, and for one common home.
They are Americans now. IL is moth
ing TO the purpose what they or their
fathers may once have been. Nor does
IL matter at all that ours is largely a
draft army. The same mixture or races
appears in the Navy and the Marines,
recruited by volunteering. For the

Of people concerned the dicult the ad-

It is much easier for six men to live together in
harmony than II is for coo to live In peace AS the
number Of people in the community increases, and as
the number Of interests be considered grows larger
the greater become the restrictions which shall be
placed upon each individual that while under ordinary
circumstances it might be possible for man TO exer-
else his freedom much he chooses. there always
arise circumstances under which is compelled
to forego certain privileges because the exercise OF these
might work injury to his neighbors.
Thus. according to law. individual man may not

And the public has a perfect right to determine

knowledged that America could no,

OF genuine amity and friendship among
