for the prosecution Of the war against
France. If Belgium were good and
allowed the German armies to use her
soil as a highway of attack upon
friendly ncighbors all Of Belgium's
rights would be respected. If not war
would result.
1t was afterward sad in condone-
ment of Gcrmany's act upon Belgium
that she had given a guarantee to that
country which Belgium refused to ac-
cept. But she had given a guarantee
to Belgium years before in treaty of
neutrality. There was no more reason
to trust Germany in 1914 on the score
of respect for Belgian rights in case
of occupation than in the matter of
the treaty which she 80 ruthiessly
treated as a scrap Of paper.

The Presidents Indisposition.

President Wilson's indispos.tion in
Paris is lamentable. but not nccessa-
rily alarming. He has been very hard
at work for long period. Not even
on his three voyages across the ocean
was he able to rest fully. He was oc-
cupied on all three occasions with mat
ters Of the utmost gravity. He is
carrying a very heavy burden. and it
is remarkable that he has stood the
strain so well. The ailmcnt that has
now lad him low is described as a
mere passing cold, and the assurance
is given that it is not Of the nature
of influenza, Apparently it does not
incapacitate him for consultation on
matters Of moment in the peace pro-
ceedings, and probably the remarkable
residence that has sustained him
through other strains will stand him
now in stead and permit his return to
full activity shortly. The country prays
for his speedy restoration to health.

No Guarantees,

Certain Polish troops under com.
mand Of Gen. Hsl:er, now within the
allied lines, are needed in Poland, and
it is desired that they should be re-
turned to their country. The best woy
to send them is by sea to Danzig and
then south into Poland. German5

Gen. Foch insists upon that route.

senate's action when the peace treaty
now shaping in Paris il submitted to
the Senate for ratification. The peo-
pie are asked to express themselves in
some way as to what form q league
should take, and upon what terms
America should join.
Likewise now as to economy. Let
the people be thoroughly advised as
to the fnances-what the government
is collecting in the way Of revenue,
and what money is necessary in the
way of the governments support. In
this way, and in this way only. can
public sentiment be brought to bear
On the momentous question Of economy
soon to be presented to Congress.
Economy, of course, is necessary.
War these days is appallingly e1pen-
sive; and the cost Of our recent indul-
gence WAS increased by appropriations
without limit and expenditures without
audit. We heaped up money, and
seemed Indifferent as to who should
gather it.
Now comes the day after. The war
is over, but has left obligations be-
hind which must be met. They are
very heavy-so much heavier than
those we have hitherto borne that the
taxpayers must be informed as to the
weight Of the pack and brought to
willingness to shoulder it.
An easy way for Congress to deal
with the matter would be by slashine
estimates right and left. But, while
easy, that way would, in the end. prove
very expensive. Economy is absolute
ly necessary; but to be helpful and eft
fective it must be carefully calculated
with regard to many different need:
and interests.

The Foe Still at Work.

A special dispatch from Fafls pup
lishcd yesterday in The Star said that
it is there believed that the kaiser is TO-
menting trouble for the peace con-
ference. This is altogether probable.
It is likely that much Of the apparent
conflict of views at the French capital
is attributable to German intrigue. II
there is no actual work on the part
of agents Of the kaiser to tho end Of
aggravating the differences between
representatives Of nations and special
interests at the conference there is
probably at least a very busy propa-
ganda there to spread tales Of dissen-
sion among the delegates and to Sc
cure publicity for stories Of conflict
and prospective disagreement.
Germans are adopts at that sort OF
thing. They have q crafty way Of in
venting tales and spreading them.
They are bad psychologists, however.
They do not accurately read the minds
Of other people. They showed that
repeatedly during the war in their
failure to measure the forces against
them and estimating the effect Of &C.
tions. They totally misconceived the
results of the bombardment Of unfor.
titled places In England and in France
They altogether miscaleulated the ef'
feet Of frightfulness 1T sea. They went
absolutely wrong on the American sen
timent. At every turn they blundered
in their diplomacy.
OF course, those who are yielding Il

ers are at work steadily, making head

Much greater time has been requifet

should have been 50 long pIotrscted i
not surprising. II should not b dis
