 The president wrote to Rabbi Wise:
 T have watched with deep and sin cere interest the reconstructive work which the Weizmann commission has done in Palestine at the instance of the British government and l wei come an opportunity to express the satisfaction I have felt in the progress of the Zionist movement in the Uni ted States and in the allied countries.
 q think that all Americans will be deeply moved by the report that even in this time of stress the Weizmann commission has been able to lay the foundation of the Hebrew university at Jerusalem with the promise that she bears of spiritual rebirth."

AS soon as this war has been fought
the problem of military training for
future defense must be met. There
will be several more military colleges
like West Point and naval academies
like Annapolis established but the
millions of youths should be trained in
the high schools and colleges of the
land. An extra year could be added
to the high school course under mill
tary subsidy and supervision that
young men could receive military train
ing. Credits should be allowed in every
college for military training which
should be one of the required courses
TO be pursued. In this way young men
who wish to pursue educational courses
could receive their military training
without loss of time. while the military
posts could take over only those who
are unable TO so to college and who
must be modified for brief periods to
receive their instruction in the defense
of their country.

COLLEGES AS MILITARY SCHOOLS

Now that the government Of the
United States has provided for the reg
istretion Of every young man who be-
comes Fl years OF age, we can accept
the recommendation Of the secretary
OF war that boys under 81 remain IN
college preparing themselves for the
maximum efficiency when the time
comes for them to enter the army.
1t is true, Of course, that many a
lad of 13 or 10 proves to be valu-
able fighting man and the regular army
men still remember that half Of the
100000 who entered the union armies
in 'oi were IS years Of age or under,
but war in these days calls for some
thing more in men than daredevil
courage or physical vitality. There is
so much of war now that calls for
technical training and war has become
such a stupendous business that the
need Of men who can organize things
is greater even than the need OF men
who are not afraid to fight.
The army and navy is busy sending
men back to- school for technical train
ing even after they have enlisted or
have been drafted. The good need is
for training rather than for men and
the colleges should be modified to do
this work before the college boys I'M
der u years Of age are modified. The
time has arrived for every college and

the ONE TEST OF LOYALTY.

unearthed a plot by Irish agitators d.
rectly in the assistance of Germany
both in Great Britain and America and
promise is that the facts will he made
public soon. Great Britain plainly an
nounces such plotting as positive. In
this country we incline to await the
promised publication
But while waiting It is both fitting
and proper to say that plots of any
nature in the assistance Of Germany
or TO the embarrassment of this war
here OF in Great Britain or any other
country allied with US in the war,
planned or executed by persons of any
nationality or blood, are pure treason
and deserve the extreme penalty Of
treason. Embarrassment OF Great
Britain at this time is embarrassment
of the United States 1t does not mat
ter in the least whether those who de-
sire or attempt such interference with
an allied victory are German, Irish,
Bohemian or Slav or Latin by birth or
descent. Nativity and bloodstrain cut
no figure. We are so inextricably al
lied with our friends across the sea
and SC unalterably enemies OF the CEN
trail powers that aid, comfort or abet-
Ulent OF the enemy here or there con-
stitutes simple treason to America.
When the facts are published it will
probably be found, If there Is any
thing in the story Of plot, that few
designing and we'll paid emissariees OF
Germany have done tho plotting. 1t
is unthinkable that Americans Of Irish
blood have either assisted or con-
scented IN any way to scheme TO as
sist Germany to win in this war. Some
good men may have been fooled--it is
rot at all uncommon that honest men
fall into the traps OF spies and plot
ters-but the American irish are loyal
