The Rhine as a Barrier.

m nARSHAL FOCH continues to MAIN
INUNI tain that there will be no safety for
llV||l France nor for the world unless the
Rhine is made permanent barrier against
the Germans. The policy he advocates IS
that which Julius Caesar actually put into
effect 1000 years ago. 1t is not likely that
Foch would go to the Caesarian extreme OF
driving all the individual Germans beyond
the Rhine. That would be difficult mat
ter now. But he would leave west of the
river no German authority, no German
Notifications, no power to aid Germany in
any future attempt to invade France or
Belgium.
To Foch, practical soldier, concerned
only with problems Of military safety, it IS
a simple matter. To the statesmen busy
with delicate questions Of diplomacy and
uniformity and justice, it is more complex.
Foch does not definitely ask for the an
nexation Of the German Rhineland, but
seems to suggest it. BY such annexation
France would gain territory about equal
to the part of France over-run by the Ger
mans III this war. 1t might seem an act Of
stern justice to take it, for the wrongs suf-
fered by France, and also as very small
example of the policy which Germany her
self was boastfully proclaiming.
But such action would be contrary to the
principles on which the allies have pledged
themselves to make peace 1t could hardly
be reconciled with the ''self determination
of peoples. " because the Germans concern
ed do not want to live in France. It might
be interpreted as an act Of conquest. Ger
many would certainly so interpret it, and
make much trouble about it.
Whether the Rhine should be made a
strategic barrier, as Marshal Foch sug-
gests, is question for the military ex-
perts. If the Rhineland is taken from Ger
many, in the pursuance Of any such plan,
manifestly the thing to do is not for any Of
the allies to grab it, but to international
ize" it, making it a buffer state

The Desert Rat will now address you on the subject of transcontinental tour ing, incidentally conveying the news that it has busted the southern trail to the Pacific wide open. This message is time ly, as several thousand tenderfoot tour ists have for some weeks been hiding be- hind their maps, waiting for the roads to open themselves. In the meantime the Desert Rat has gone and opened the southern trail, and now she is out open ing the northern cross continent route via. the Yellowstone and the Bad Lands.
 On the return trip to the Pacific coast the Desert Rat is visiting the various Maxwell dealers en route.
 Everybody who knows anything about crossing the continent in motor car ap- preciates that none of the trails are open before the middle of June. Without say ing word to any of the experts the Desert Rat "hopped off from Los An geles March 23 and headed east across the deadly Gila desert.
 The seemingly impossible venture was the result of a dare thrown out to Scout King Stanley and his son-in-law, James M Drake. King Stanley is one of those western pioneers who never took dare in his life. He is now past 50 years Of age

 Sales f Mack trucks for June jumped all bounds with the biggest gain yet on record when they increased 4i.5 per cent over the sales for the previous month.
 This phenomenal increase is due. no doubt. in large measure to the grow ing recognition of business men that they must depend more and more upon the motor truck. especially in view of the imminent shortage of railway transportation
