shutting the doors of an institution
whose avowed aims were no higher

To the relief of many of us, how

has worked out in quite a different

America failed to learn the lesson It

Unlike other great wars, this war
came, not war for territorial gains
but a war for men. Consequently
the private soldier was cared for as
never before. His health was guarded,
his morals protected. There was no
great epidemic in the American forces
except the influenza. Not only was
the soldier protected, he was amused
and cheered, fed with candy, tckled
with cigarettes, kept from ennui by
moving pictures and instructed in the
objects for which the war was being
fought. Instead Of being ruthless of

what we want in order to be economically
independent Of England but it would also
put the means into our hands of striking
England home at any moment with the
help of our navy and the man power latent
IN this future dominion"
Discussing slightly different aspect of
the subject in relation to future vars
1t is vitality important that we should give
heed to the frequency with which German
publicists refer with assurance to future
wars"-Herr Davis Trcitsch writes
"ln future wars Germany, if only by using
the new military weapons acquired and per-
fected in this war particularly, assume,
the U-boatl, would be able to threaten Enc
lands colonial dominion to far greater
extent.
with a compactness extending not onlv
over our continent, but over a great part
of the globe, Germany could deal such
blows to the world wide interests and far
scattered colonies Of her opponents as would

less sea murders. 1t would have convinced
the Germans of the completeness of their
defeat.
In the light of these most damaging ad-
missions, it is extremely suggestive to re-
call the words used by DR.. Solf, while hold
ing the portfolio of German Colonial Min
lister. Lecturing a few months ago at
Munich he declared: "The regaining OF our
colonies is task Of national Importance
which is not eclipsed by any other"
The foregoing quotations, which could be
multiplied indefinitely, disclose the reason
Of Germanys anxiety to regain her lost
colonies. The significance of this disclos-
urc is rendered still more ominous when
VIC remember how vastly stronger would be
Germany's position if, in addition to power
full naval bases at Dar-es Salaam and
Luderitz Bay, she possessed other bases in
New Guinea and at Samoa She would then
dominate the ocean trade routes Of the
whole world In the event of war-to

emitting the assassinated Presidents,
1856, 81, Sd and 60 per cent. We
find the same apparent tendency among
the Vice-Presidents. In fact, the
Vice-Presidents seem to live out a
smaller fraction of their expectations
than the Presidents, excluding the in
f1uence of assassinations. This fact Off
it be significant fact, rather than an
accidental incident in so small a number
of lives) would suggest that the official.
social and convivial life at Washington
is greater life shortener than even the
heavy responsibilities of office.
The five Presidents Of Yale University,
for substantially the same period as that
of the above table, show a longevity
equal to 1877 per cent of their expecta-
tions.
The number of lives in all three lists
(only so in all, excluding Implications
Is SO small that any statistical conclu-
sions, without confirmatory evidence,
would be dangerous.
But we have enough lives among our
oongressmen-Senators and Representa-
tlves-about $500, to make the results
OF undoubted significance, and the re-
suits are very similar, as have shown
elsewhere.
Whatever our political preferences, all
true Americans will mourn the death of
President Roosevelt and acknowledge the
great value of his services to his coun-
try. The fact chat those services have
been cut short and that the lives of our
public servants in general are short
should set us thinking as to whether a
better conservation and utilization of the
most useful lives of our countrymen
cannot be secured.

which, be it always remembered, Germany
still looks forward-the freedom of the seas
would be gone. The masters of the situa-
ton would be those ruthless pirates the
U-boats.
This is not mere supposition. 1t is made
unmistakably clear by chart of the world
issued recently by the British Admiralty
Operating from bases established at the
points above named, German submarines,
whose radius of activity and zone of de-
struction have been increased so greatly
within the last four years, would be able
to cut across every ocean highway. Bases
in the Pacific alone would give to these
murderous craft most dangerous and deadly
points d'appui not only against Australasia,
but also America Asia and Africa. Oversee
communication between these continents
would be fearfuly hazardous, if not abso
lutely impossible.
Think for moment what the position of
Great Britain and. her Allies would have
been had Germany, at the outbreak of the
war possessed those naval bases, which she
still desires to create, fully equipped for
submarine warfare on big scale! 1t is no

The table shows that the longevity of
our Presidents, emitting the two still
living, is only 81 per cent of that eek
pected" according to the insurance table,
which, in turn, is less than that among
insured lives of the present time. Even
if we omit the assassnated Presidents,
Lincoln, Garfield and Mckinley, the
longevity of the remainder is still only
81 per cent Of that expected by the old
American experience table, while this,
in turn, is less than two-thirds the ex
pectation of the insured lives of TODAY
which is longer than the American Ex
perience Table indicates. We note also
that the longevity of our Presidents
seems to be diminishing with the in
creasing complexity Of modern life in
Washington. Their average longevity
in the four successive periods was 1876,

By Admiral Lord Charles Beres-
ford, C.C.B., G.C.V.O.

owEvER broken in heart and con-
trite in spirit Germany may pro-
- IA fess to be when the terms of
peace are being discussed, no
sickly sentimental considerations, such as
invertebrate pacifsts love to urge, must be
allowed to influence the victors. No camou-
hage should deceive u.s. 1t is as impossible
nowadays for the Ethiopian to change his
skin or the leopard his spots as it was
In the days Of jeremiah. Terms of peace
must be sternly insisted upon which shall
make it humanity impossible for the enemy
ever again to plunge the world into
maelstrom of blood and rapine.
Let US remind ourselves at this juno
ture of the objects the war lords Of Pots
dam had avowedly in view when, disrc-
garding their most solemn international OBJ
legations and treaties, they drew the sword
IN August, 1914. Neither Mitteleuropa nor
pan-Germanism by any means indicates the
full extent Of their ambitious projects. They
aimed at world domination. And to them
world domination meant, inter ALA, the
overthrow and disintegration of the Brit
ish empire and the transfer Of the Trident
from the British to the German navy. For
it was only by obtaining supremacy of the
seas, which means control of the worlds
ocean highways, that Germany could real
ize her dream and desire.
Has she rcnounced or finally abandoned
this project? Look at tho facts. Even
when almost brought to her knees. and
when the Allies were approaching her
gates, German statesmen and publicists
imperiously demanded that two essential
conditions of peace must be, first. the Gree
dom OF the seas"-whatevcr that may mean
and, second, the return of her African
and Pacific possessions 1t is vitality i'm
portant to right understanding Of IN.
issues involved that the close interdepen-
dence OF these points should be realized
and borne constantly In mind. In a sen.e.
tho second point is the more vital. For
what purpose does Germany SO earn.stlv
desire TO recover her lost colonies? Let
us repeat what some Of her leading nub,;c
men have said on the subject.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-01-12

exaggeration to say that Great Britain and
her Allies would have been starved into
unconditional surrender within six months
of the outbreak of hostilities. Neither food
nor raw materials, neither men nor NUM-
tions could have reached any of the thea
tres of war from Australasia, Africa, Asia
or America, save at an enormous risk
and an appalling loss of life and treasure.
The Allies would have been crushed, the
British Empire doomed.
