HELP THE RED CROSS

A year ago the people Of Grand Forks responded to
the appeal for Red Cross memberships in a manner
which indicated an appreciation Of the importance Of the
work which the society is doing. and of a very lively
sympathy in that work. In the year which has passed
we have had time and opportunity to become more
familiar with the organization and what it is doing, ana
those who are working in the membership campaign this
year belitve with good reason that they look with con-
fdence fora very largely increased list of members from
the city this year-that they may reasonably expect. IN
fact, a membership Of one hundrtd per cent.
We must not make the mistake Of supposing that
the war is over. There has been a. cessation Of active
host1litles' and there is every reason to believe that fight
ing on a large scale will not be renewed. But the war
will not be over. and the armies cannot be Withdrawn
until the conditions of peace are formulated and the
treaties Of peace are signed by representatives of govern
ments able and willing to carry out the conditions pre-
scribed. And not until the most important of these con-
ditions are actually performed can all of the troops OF
the Allies safely be withdrawn from the advanced posi-
tons which they occupy.
Affairs in Germany are in a chaotic state,>and it is
impossible to estimate what may result. Conditions NAV
develop in that country at any time which will require
the garrisoning, of the whole country for the purpose OF
maintaining order. Should SUCH conditions develop "a
large occupying force will be required. Russia is in a
deplorable condition, chiefly as the result of the non
existence IN the greater part aof' that country of govern
ment which will protect the individual in his persona!
and property rights. The wheels of industry have stop
ped, and it is not an exaggeration to say that in that
country some millions Of human beings are actually
starving.
1t is necessary for us to help the orderly and indus
trious people Of Russia to get on their feet We must
help to put down anarchy there, and to do that we must
brlng the rifle and the bayonet to bear on a lot OF
anarchists. 1t will probably be necessary for us to hgh,
our way into Russia to prepare roads over which we can
send food to her starving people. In all of this work
the Red Cross will play its part. In the care of those
who are wounded in battle; in the nursing of those who
are taken i'll in camp life; in the distribution Of food and
clothing to the hungry and the naked;-in these land
scores of other ways there will be need for the activities
of the Red Cross, with its full force working up to the
limit, for a long time to come.
The Red Cross must and shall be supported, and
Grand Forks will do its part. g.

A WASTEFUL PROGRAM

Information is not furnished as to the authority on
which the statement is made that the American delegates
to the peace conference have decided to urge the sink
ing of the German war ships recently surrendered. and
that the British authorities have practically agreed to
this plan. This plan, 1t is said, is favored as the best
way Of avoiding the complications sure to result from
an attempt to arrange a basis on which to distribute the
ships among the powers participating in the war.
1t is taken for granted that under no circumstances
will the ships be restored to Germany. Germany has
forfeited them as prizes of war, and she has lost them
forever. Several plans have been suggested for the dis
tribution of the vessels among the Allies, but no plan
suggested seems to have met with much favor. It is
possible that it has practically been decided that the ships
shall be sunk as the best way out Of the dilemma.
1t is clear that, numerous and valuable though these
vessels are, their number and value are not great enough
TO permit them to become a cause Of dissension among
nations upon whose cooperation and mutual good will
the welfare Of the nation depends. It would be better
far that they should be destroyed. But 1t will be a
strange thing if, at this stage Of the worlds progress,
with the horrible object lessons in waste that the war has
given us, and with the need for thrift and conservation
being impressed on US at every turn, modern. sea-
worthy ships are deliberately sunk while at least two of
the nations. Great Britain and the United States, are pre-.
pairing to e1pend large sums on the building of other
ships, many Of which will practically be duplicates of
those that are sunk.
That would be an incredible, and, seemingly, an in
excusable waste. The world faces an enormous work of
reconstruction. That work will require all the money
that can be found for ii, and, what is more important
all the labor and all the material that can be provided,
And yet it is proposed to send to the bottom of the ocean
gigantic structures containing material of enormous
volume, and representing the labor Of thousands of men
FOR years, and then to proceed to dig such other material
( out of the bowels Of the earth, and to devote the labor
OF other thousands of men, for more years, to the worl
OF transporting and fashioning 1t, until we have substan.
tally duplicated what we have destroyed. Surely there
is some saner and better way.
We may admit the difficulty Of finding a satisfactor,
basis on which the German ships could be distributed
among the victorious nations as prizes of war and still
hope that the intelligence Of the worlds statesmen m,sn,
be equal to the task Of removing or avoiding those dim.
culties. Then, there is the plan of arranging for thu
y purchase OF the ships by powers to be agreed on, at q
price 70 be fixed by appraisal. There Is the plan of con.
vertins the ships into merchant vessels, and, while no,

PRECEDENTS GO BY THE BOARD

One thing which has caused President Wilson TO win
favor in the sight Of a good many Americans is his att'-
tude toward precedent. The fact that a thing has always
been done in a certain way is not, in his mind, a good
reason why it should always be done in that way. AT
the beginning of his first term the president shocked not
a few people by going to the capitol and reading his ao-
senger in the customary way. Yet the country has
that there is any real reason why the president should
not address congress in person if he thinks proper to 40
SO. The innovation has at least one good feature in that
even if the president were inclined to verbosity, it would
scarcely be practicable for him to stand and read a COM
munication as long as some of those at times submitted.
and which nobody but the proofreader read.
In a good many instances the president has ignored
precedent when precedent seemed to stand in the way
Of doing what he thought needed to be done. And it is
fair also to note that his treatment Of precedent has been
uniformly quiet and unostentatous.
The president thought it his duty to go to Europe.
A good many Of US did not agree with him, believing
was in Washington. But some, of the arguments ad-
vanced against the journey impressed neither the presi-
dent nor the country. The fact that no president had
ever visited Europe during his term Of Office was no rsa-
son why the thing should not be done if the need arose.
It was done, and the government still lives.
So, too, we are told that Mr.. Wilson while in Paris
has been crowding a great deal into a short time by the
simple expedient of going to call on other men when
that was more convenient than waiting for them TO call
on him. The polish is taken off some of the precedents,
it is true, but that is a small matter when one is after
results.

GERMANY'S LEAD NOT FOLLOWED

For some reason which does not appear on the sur
face there is marked difference in the methods employed
by the British, French and Belgians on the one hand,
and the Americans on the other. ip governing those sec
tons of Germany which they have occupied. The Euro
pean commanders have imposed on the German inhabi-
tants of the territory assigned to them quite rigid rules
of conduct, while the rules promulgated by General
Pershing for the guidance Of the Germans in the terri
tory occupied by the American armies are much more
liberal. - Is. :.
In no case are the property rights Of the people dis
regarded and in no case is there interference with indi-
viduals in the pursuit Of their lawful business. There is,
however, much more strictness in the British, French
and Belgian regulations relating to the registration of
the population, to the moving of individuals from place
to place, to the use of the streets at night, and the like,
than the American commander has thought wise to apply
to his own regulations. =,
At this time we have no means of knowing the
reason for these differences. Some surprise has been ex-
pressed that General Foch, being in supreme command.
did not provide for uniformity of treatment of the Ger
man population throughout the entire occupied district.
That could have been done, but in an occupation such as
MIS- winch is strictly military, it is evident that some
latitude must be permitted to the commander of the
occupying army, and that his course must be determined
largely by his own judgment Of the needs, in the light
Of the surrounding conditions.
While in the absence Of information the whole sub
JOS - ecuAdtlV 1t.1S possible to imagine reasons winch
would, in part, at least. account for the differences noted.
1t is possible that the four years and more Of bitter war
fare, with all the horrors that accompanied it, have Gre
ated such strained conditions that the commanders OF
the armies which have been Gernany's antagonists dur
ing all OF that time feel that extraordinary precautions
are necessary to avoid serious clashes. It is a fact ,nat
in certain German circles tht Americans are regarded
less in the light of conquerors than as potential defenders,
against the hard conditions which the Allies would other
wise seek to impose, and this may have something to do
With the air Of resignation with which Germans have
seen their towns and villages occupied by American
troops. and the lack Of anything 'menacing in their atti-
tude. And this may account for the easiness of the
regulations which General Pershing has seen fit to
impose.
Whatever may be the reasons for these differences
OF treatment. whether they are induced by differences
in the local conditions, or are prompted by different
estimates OF what the Germans need and what may
properly be administered to them, on the part Of none
OF the armies Of occupation, continental, British or
American. Is the lead Of Germany being followed, and
under no circumstances will the brutalities OF the Ger
man forces be enulated or inflated in the slightest
degree. $fs
