Britain has true friends. We deal
neither with Republicans nor with
democrats as such, but with Ameri-
can citizens, and. we know that,
among American citizens, we owe an
immense and especial debt to Mr..
Roosevelt for more than one outspo-
ken tribute to British sincerity.
If this peace talk is a trap most
English-speaking people will rest
confident that NJ. Clemenceau, Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Lloyd George will
not be deceived thereby. If, on the
other hand, Austria or parts of
Austria can be detached-which
achievement leaves Germany still to
be dealt with--so much the better.
That is part, though only a subor-
dlnate part, of the game of winning
the war. Living here in America,
| realize the extraordinary difficulty
of not taking sides when, at dinner
parties and luncheons, people ask
me whether agree or disagree with
this, that and the other line of
American policy. Similarly, Ameri-
cans must be hard put to it to avoid
adopting view on the domestic con-
troversies which are echoed over
here from Britain. Ny own belief
is that all parties over there wish to
avoid political changes. We like a
firm, solid Cabinet. And Mr.. Lloyd
George holds the threads--his place
in history is unchallenged and un-
challengeable. But if, let US say, Sir
Charles Dixie or Mr.. Labouchere or

the nature of things a kind Of
kaleidoscope.
l have lived in the place nearly
all my adult life, and / have known
the men in every group and party.
/ wish, then, to emphasize my view
that, however keen may be certain
controversies in Britain, every such
difficulty is entirely subordinate to
winning the war. Among ourselves
we talk very freely. But we agree
TO differ, and that is the agreement
in policy and action on which Amer
lea and the Allies can implicitly de-
pend.
You are just concluding a Liberty
Loan campaign which has been in
itself q remarkable national effort.
We are conducting a similar propa-
ganda, but on less elaborate lines.
The fact is that our imaginations
are satiated with horror and disgust
over Germany. 1t seems useless to
dwell on these bestial iniquities.
Also, we have most of our enemy
aliens under lock and key, while the
worry with US is not to close down
German newspapers, but to keep
British newspapers going. There
fore, in Britain, things look quiet.
We lack the dramatic instinct which
counts for so much at supreme mo-
ment. But with regard to the gen.
tleman who here goes by the name
of Kaiser Bill, you will find that we
shall be, with the rest, in at the
death. And when that happy event
occurs the grand alliance of free
peoples will forget the blackness .of
the night in the glory of the new day
that will have dawned on the world.

Shown a sagacious statemanship in
letting them put their case. I do
not know how matters were ar
ranged, but unquestionably we owe
much to the sterling common sense
Ct Mr.. Gompers. Moreover, it is from
America that British labor will most
easily take warning-a needed
warnlng-against proceeding at this
time with any idea of an interna-
tional conference. Germany has Sc
lected force as her weapon and must
be answered by force.
Allies Now One
Rampant of Steel
Hindenburg has struck hard with
that Thor's hammer of his, but on
the anvil of destiny he has merely
welded the Allies into one rampant of
steel. Insular prejudice is England's
reputation and nothing will change
it. But, according to his lights, the
British soldier has tried to be the
worlds soldier, and where we used to
talk about the glory of our empire
we now are silent in the service of
mankind. Side by side with COM
rades of every race, we salute the
universal flag of justice. 1t means a
great change in national psychology.
Ever since the war began shrewd
spectators have seen that with Eng
land full Of friendly foreigners, while
her sons and daughters are away IN
other lands, we must become, as
never before, an international people.
This battle has stimulated such a
tendency. We are beginning to talk
French and Italian and to think in
European terms. Before our work
ingnen, now enlisted, a new world
opens. They can never be the same
again. And under stress Of peril we
have got rid of some national pride.
Your troops have accepted brigad-
ing; so, l read, have ours. In mill
tary annals it marks an epoch-a
revolution.
Through all the crisis our rela-
tions with France, ever cordial,
steadily improved. Before this bat
tie Britain was chiefly conscious of
rendering help to others. say that
this was her way of looking at it.

Three days before St. Quentin. F:

The Soldiers Had
Entertainments

In the periods of repose, to drive
away ennui, the poilus organized en-
tertainments, and since they were
fortunate enough to have in their
ranks Saint Cervin, called Bistoquet, of
the Partisan music halls, they natural
ly turned to him to direct these af-
fairs. He was the soul of the con-
certs and tasted, from then on, the
keenest delights. He was at last
somebody-a real top liner.
The others were only enthusiastic
amateurs. The poilus voted them a
success, of course. But the ovations,
the recalls, the triumphs, went to
Bistoquet, the unique, the inimitable
Bistoquet. The soldiers impatiently
waited for his turn to como. They
gave him an overwhelming welcome.
On the manifolded programmes his
name figured in enormous letters. He
who had never before gotten on the
posters now saw his laughing face,
painted in blue, red and green by a
former caricaturist, spread across a
double billboard before the doors Of
the barn in which the "Poilus' Casino"
gave its representations. When he
walked by in the cantonment the SOL
diers pointed him out, saying: There
goes Bistoquet. He is an ace"
1t was the realization Of an ideal
hitherto unattainable.

1t Was the End
OF His Dream

Poor Bistoquet! He could not hope
to figure, even as curteih raiser
and that he would never have con-
sented to do. 1t was the end of his
dream. His whole repertory was 60
ing to be sung by the man who had
created the roles. The comrades would
make a thousand comparisons, all to
his disadvantage. And after that they
would never look at him again.

He Had a Three
Days Engagement

From time to time he got a three
days engagement-for twenty francs
in all, matinee included Hardly
enough to keep body and soul together.
Certainly he was not stupid. He
showed great good will and even
possessed what one might call tenn
permanent. But his physical appear
ance and his wardrobe handicapped him
in getting engagements in the city.
With worn out shoes, neckties of cot
ton and ce1luloid collars one cannot
make much of an impression on theat-
rical managers.
, In short, bad luck or lack of pre-
sentability kept Saint-Cervin, called
Bistoquet, down to a diet Of thick,
black soup.
The general mobilization found him
dragging his wrinkled trousers across
the terrace of q cafe we'll known to
river boatmen and rendezvous for
itinerant scissors grinders. Not hav-
ing had bite to eat since the evening
before, he cried with goodnatured
fatAlism:
"Well, hero is an engagement which
will not break in the hand. No salary,
but food and clothing! And it will
last"
He went TO the front, fought at
Charleroi, the Marne and the User,
and, finally, when the war of move
ment had given place to the war of
nibbling. he went with his regiment
