It has caused the com piiation and publication of 3 Red Book presenting suppressed or partly sup pressed documents in the Vienna ar chives that completely establish the guilt ofNthe minis serial council ot the Eapsburg dual ,.ing1on, under the maiisn influence aod leadership of Count Berchtold, ne foreign minis ter a- that time. The council it is shown, deliberately decided on July 7 1914. to provoke an armed conflict. with Serbia and face the anticipa ted consequences, war with Russia and with the Balkan states syrnpathizing with Serbia.
 Count Berchtoid had resolved on an other couP-simiIar to that which an nexed Bosnia and Herzegovina to Aus tria in violation of the treaty of Ser lin-desigred to strengthen the posi- ton Of the Hapsburg dynasty. The murder of Archduke Francis Ferdi- hand merely furnished him with a pretext. He and his colleagues had no intention of accepting as sufficient diplomatic victory over Serbia, however complete. War was what. they wanted, and they deliberately made Jle language of the ultimatum TO Serbia as provocative as they knew how to make it. The situation seem cd to them favorable for a military triumph and a brilliant revival of Austrian prestige The documents now made public prove beyond doubt that Austria's cabinet set out to get 2 var and would have been bitterly disappointed had Great Britain or any other power succeeded in bringing about q conference. or mediation. or z-ritration-

.Tts no use trying to be superior ? nourned the bride with blush and a twinkle. No matter how hard one tries to surpass dne's fellows fate seems determined on reducing us all to a common level.''
 Yes, being Superwonan is hard work sympathiZed the spinster, with an answering twinkle You know how often we've tried it, Alicia. Let's have the story.
 Well said the bride, her blush deepening, you knok how everybody expects newly married couple to be- tray their happy if untried condition. And the poor bride gets the most mind that if any betraying was done on our honeymoon Jim would do it. So worked up the part b Lore hand. I practiced so hard in secret trying to get used to the new name and so on that I nearly gave the affair away in advance. Why I even practiced calling myself Mrs. Jones' every morn ing and evening, and I-oh, well. suppose it was to bel"
 What was to be -' queried the spinster amused but eager. Get to the point"
 Well" began the bride again, re- fusing to be hurried, T did manage to avoid some of the snags. I've seen other honeymoon craft wrecked on. took pains to learn beforehand how Jim likes his tea and coffee and so on. I was careful to travel in a suit and hat I'd worn before, and I was care full to be casual in my manner when ever 1 addressed Jim in public.
 Tt was all right until that awful woman from St. Paul came to the fo- tel where we were staying. Not that she was an awful woman, really. But whether she suspected that I was a bride and wanted to tease or whether she was just tactless, she did get me into a lot of trouble first and last. She began the conversation and seemed so pleasant that L enjoyed chatting with her until she began to ask ques- tions. Then I was kept lodging. She wanted to know if I had been married long. l said, Oh, yes, Sorhe time. Then she wanted to know where we came from. I told her Chicago. Then she wondered if I knew what were the long distance charges between the ho- tel, and Chicago and she talked Chi cago so much that I grew homesick for mother and decided to call her up.
 It's quite ceremony getting a long distance call in at one of those

AID TO DISABLED SOLDIERS.

Paying a debt of honor with a worthless check is the way the Amer ican Legion Weekly. the official or gan of the American Legion. describes what has been done to fulfill the na- tion's obligation to disabled soldiers, sailors and marines whoe served in the war.
 The case is probably overstated though 1t may have some basis in fact The immediate object of attack is the federal board for vocational education. The siXty-fifth congress is blamed with aiming too high and leav- ing too much to the board which is charged with gross incompetence.
 The Weekly declares that the situa- tion is something as follows Thous- ands of wounded men are abroad, some of them in every community in the land. abandoned by the govern ment they served. They stand on the threshold of a cneerless future, often the prey of actual want always of the bitter reflections of promises un- redeemed and hopes deferred. In ev- cry large city you may find them. They frequent the Red Cross and oth- CT charitable soldiers aid societies They want food shelter or money. and a chance to earn them by some slight labor they can negotiate under the handicap of their infirmity.
 The government made a palpab ble biunder when it turned. disa bled men out of the service and lost touch with them before the vocational board was ready to begin it's work. but that these men have been abandoned by the gov ernment seems like very much of an exaggeration. The Legion may have felt that it needed to put up strong case and in the vigor of it's present ment have oyerstepped the limits, giv- ing too little credit to the more re- cent activities Of the vocational board.

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Secretary of State Lansing had nothing to say Saturday in his speech at Lansingdorp. a government suburb of Watertown. N- Y. about William c. Bullitt, and he told interviewers that ne had no comment to make on Bulitts testimony before the Senate foreign relations committee. but he urged the early ratification of the trea-y and league cOv en tIt which treaty and league covenant, which. Mir Bullitt testified. MT. Lansing emphatically disapproved in a con versation in Paris. He said that. while there may be in the treaty fea- lures which do not meet universal approval the objections which have been made to certain provisions are trivial, compared with the imperative need of peace" Unless Mir. Lansing has changed his mind since he talked with his friend Buliitt. the latter must have borne false testimony before the Senate committee. but MT. Lansing refrains from making that charge.
 The war is over whether the par ticular treaty now before the Senate is ratified as it stands. is modified or Is rejected in whole. If the treaty is as thoroughly bad as MT Bullitt says Mir Lansing declared it 10 he there is nothing that can justify it's ratiffi- caion.-Hartford Courant.

decision as to fares must be supple mented by constructive legislation on the part of the general assembly be- fore it can be declared that the public is in no danger of losing it's car ser vice or of suffering serious impair ment of it's transportation facilities.
 The cause Of the financial difficulties of the electric railway company has been determined beyond auestion-it is in the lower purchasing power of the doIlar-the commission. after ex- haustive inquiry, finds that the prop erty has been managed as well as pos sible under the unusual conditions created by the war. Therefore the only remedy is in revenue correspond the higher prices of coal and other supplies.
 The Rhode Island commission ar rives at the same conclusion the troll ley heads have been preaching for some time-that fare raises are not enough but there must be remedial state legislation if trolley service is to be saved for the people.
 AMERIcANfSM TO THE FORE.
 The cider J. P. Morgan affirmed his faith in the American people when he used to say that "a man who is bear OH the cOunlTS Us sure LO go DTohe. He felt that the sober sense of the American people could always be de- pended upon to see things straight and to act upon their conclusions This faith seems to have been vindi- cated by the history of the steel strike, in which it is reported most of the strikers are foreign born and that the percentage of the Americans among them is small Those who went out at the first call were largely of the foreign born class and now that they are discovering that their leaders are anti-American they resent being placed in that classification and are reported returning to work. They are realizing what the American spirit is doing for them in the housing and school facilities provided for them social connections which their families enjoy and they do not see where the labor unions offer them anything bet ter.
 If the men are returning to work in, any such numbers as is now indicated, t is evident that the radicals in the A. F. of L. have lost the strike and the great stake they were playing for.
 Congressman Cooper himself a for mer member of and now an advocate of labor unions. has issued warning that the steel strikers must call, a halt in their mad course
 The common sense of the American people can be depended upon.
