The Scandal of the Seats

The picture of wounded soldiers, de-
pendent upon uncertain private hospital
ity for chance to see the parade of the
9th while each of the sixty-seven men,
bers of New Yorks Board of Aldermen
fingers tickets for one hundred seats
in the reviewing stand is not pleas
ing. Of course, most of these have
no votes here. They are merely Grip
pied American soldiers who have a
natural desire to see the review.
According to official admissions, after
members of the families of the 9th are
taken care of there will remain nearly
$4,000 seats. There are 1000 wounded
soldiers in hospitals strong enough to
view the parade. Must New York, in
the midst Of it's Joy over the return of
it's triumphant 9th, squirm at the sight
of wounded soldiers buffeted about in
the crowds while the civilian friends of
sixty-seven aldermen monopolize 6,70O
seats in the grandstand?

The Truth Fully Out

1t is no surprise to learn from docu-
ments hitherto unpublished that when
the German Foreign Office in July, 1914,
was pretending it was urging Austria
Hungary to be moderate it was in fact
secretly melting her to extreme action.
The Austro- Hungarian Ambassador at
Berlin reported on July rs, 1914, that
"any adjournment of military operations
would be considered here as very danger
GUS" Two days later, in a dispatch
marked strictly secret" he said the
German government had assured him
sin the most convincing manner that it
in no way Identifies itself with these
propositions that is, the propositions
of Great Britain for moderation and
arbitration.
While Hungary was thus be-
ing told to hurry, the German Foreign
Minister was saying he was pressing the
button for peace at Vienna. At the last
moment Austria-Hungary wished to re-
cede, but her ally was determined on war.
The differences drawn from the diplo-
matte papers which became accessible
early are now fully confirmed by direct
documentary evidence. The string of
lies the Kaiser personally telegraphed
the Gar scarcely have an equal in diplo-
matte history.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-03-16

cussion is not over the principle, but
over a particular document. Not much
honest or candor is expected in politics.
but seldom has there been more dis
honest and uncandid appeal as that now
being made. 1t recalls the Bryan meth
dds OF 1916, when, on the ground that
as it was wicked to press a crown Of
thorns about the brow of labor. every
one was told to vote for a fifty-cent
dollar.
The American people are too seasoned
in the power of discrimination to be
caught by such a device. Gentlemen
who have sincerely viewed the war as
one against war, and who genuinely wish
for a better general organization for
peace should lose no time in exerting
their influence to get fatal defects out
OF the covenant or to develop a substi-
tute for it. If the present opportunity
is not seized it may not come again. and
surely few are SO petty and partisan as
to be willing to have the world again
become an armed camp. Yet this may
happen if dogmatic insistence on par
tlcular scheme and a refusal to listen
to objections continue. 1t is highly i'm
probable that the covenant will be rati
fed. This is now recognized even by
its advocates.
In view of this situation, it would
seem that practical men, really enlisted
in behalf of great cause, would be
busy trying to devise something better
and more acceptable. Instead, tricky
and fatuous campaign continues. The
longer it goes on, the more difficult will
it be to effect anything. The great idea
is being degraded and great hope les
sened. The possible consequences every
sensible person must see.

veloped and Russia put out of the war in
1915 instead of in 1917. Won Hoffman,
may be right. Certainly the great weak
ness of German military policy, apart
from the misuse of the U-boats, was the
indecision shown in turning away in 1916
from the Eastern front and trying to
bleed France white at Verdun. If Rus
STA had been put out in 1915 and the
United States not dragged in in 1917
Germany's military position would have
been virtually secured But the infamed
German ego wouldn't have it that way.
The German official bulletins seldom
told the truth. Every German COM
mander now seems ready to tell the truth
and little more. But none of them
has so far stumbled on the real explana-
ton, which is that the U-boat lost the
war.

Faith With Italy

Shall treaty be broken because it
was not an open covenant "openlv az
rived att? Here is difficult question.
France and Great Britain are being criti-
csed for want to fulfil the obliga-
lions of the treaty made with Italy when
Italy entered the war; 1t was neces-
sary, and at the time not illegitimate, on
their part to make pledges to Italy. 1t
is natural for Italy now to demand that
those pledges shall be kept Nearly all
the territory in question has belonged to
enemy powers. The rest of it be-
longed to the internationalized kingdom
Of Albania, which has gone into bank
ruptcy, or in case of the Dodecanesus-
consisted Of former Turkish islands
which Italy had occupied in 1910 and
had held after the close of the Turko
Italian war, under conditional title.
Greece has laid claim to these islands
on the ground that the population is
largely Greek. 1T is also urged that the
Fourteen Points act as a repeater of all
preexistent arrangements among the
Entente belligerents. But the Fourteen
Points did not denounce any existing
conventions. They simply provided that
after the general peace all covenants be-
tween nations should be open and openly
arrived at 1t is in no way clear that
they have morally or practically nullifed
the compacts made by Great Britain and
France with Italy.
ltaly's bargains with the original En-
tente powers are being subjected to
good deal of contemptuous criticism.
But they stand on exactly the same basis
as Frances and Great Britain's bar
gains with each other, which have been
generally accepted as justifable. There
should be reason in these things. Greece.
too, has territorial claims which appar
emily will be treated in a generous
measure. But it cannot be forgotten
that while Italy was fighting on the side
OF the Entente the Greek government, so
long as King Constantine remained at
the head of it, was. persistenty serving
the cause of Germany.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-03-16

Every German general nowadays has
an infallible explanation Of Germany's
defeat. General Won Hoffman,, the
man who dictated the terms Of the Brest-
Litovsk treaty, has just put forward
theory whose originality is beyond dis
pute. He says that Foch didn't win the
war. The Germans were not defeated in
the West. They were defeated in the
East. And LeniHe did it, Says General
Won Hoffman,:
Il will tell you the exact moment which
marked the beginning Of the end. 1t was
when General Ludendorf telephoned me
at the headquarters on the Eastern front
from France to sign peace-~any peace
with any Russian able to write his name.
The Americans are coming said Luden-
dorif, and we need every corps we have
on the Western front. Make peace with
Russia and release our armies there at
once"
This sounds interesting. But General
Won Hoffman, puts the cart before the
horse. Who dragooned America into the
war and thus made it necessary to
strengthen the Western armies? That is
the question which all the German gen

to the world for allies. Under the league
such nation might we'll find itself bound
to submit to a foreign frame-up in which
Anglo-American and even French interests

That the Monroe Doctrine would die uY-

argue otherwise only manage to do SO by
postulating their own peculiar views of
that doctrine. And that the Monroe Doc

While this petition was on it's way to
the President company of black SOL
diers was returning to the Union League
Club of New York the colors which the
men Of the 367th Infantry ten days less
than year before pledged themselves
to bear bravely and ultimately to re-
store" to the club. The deeds of this
regiment in fulfilment of it's pledge are
now part of the nations war his
tory. Recapitulating these deeds, Judge
Charles E. Hughes, in accepting the re-
turned oclors for the club, said:
"These colors come to US as a memorial
of the loyalty, bravery, sacrifice and splen-
did patriotism of the men of the colored
race. They have come forward in this bat
tie side by side with their white brethren
and that devotion to our country can never
be forgotten. This is not only a memorial
as | have said but it is pledge-a pledge
which we make to you as our colored
brethren, and we shall not forget the SER
vice which you have performed"
While Judge Hughes was paying this
tribute to the negro soldiers a Florida
mob was burning member of the race
at the stake. 1t is only the enduring
optimism and hope of the negro race
that permits it to keep warm it's faith
in the fulfilment Of such pledges as that
to which the returned men of the 365th
listened.
