THIS editorial tribute 10 the Rev Joseph H. ode,
D. D. the new Director Central for the Service
Citizens Of Delaware we find in the Troy Record
When the Troy Presbytery Monday dissolved the rela
tions existing between Rev. Joseph Odell, d. d., and
the First PRESBYTERIAN Church Of this city II registered
ihe conclusion of pasiorae that has been an epoch in
the history Of Troy Dr 0do came TO Troy after ca
IN Scranton and Philadelphia which had proved MS
superabundant vitality and his broad Interest In COM
munity service The First Presbyterian Church OF this
city always has desired such type Of man in It's pulpit
and it called him with enthusiasm.
During the three and half years Of Dr. Odes pasorate
he has been powerful asset in the life OF the commun-
ity Not only he a great preacher carrying his
audiences with him by faultess logic and yirile dlcton
Dr. Odel was still moro great citizen Every Trojan
will remember how he rallied the fagsing spirits OF men
and women in the nrst Red Cross drive and, with
dynamc force that seemed inexhausble shared in the
accomplishment Of task which had not been deemed
possible even by the most optimistic workers fortnight
before.
War Service League Of the most successful schemes
Of civic organization invented In the United states Tor
the extension Of patriotic Ideals and the meeting of war
quotas, was largely his idea In every drive ana every
crisis he served the platform and in the pulpit urgns
Troy, with the unbounded optimism Of an unwavering
faith TO the heights Of achievement.
Il has been open secret that he has refused
after overture from churches in other communities
that offered larger salaries and greater ecclesiastical
prominence; but he believed from the besinnns his
pastorate In TrOy and he did not consider this city
aed OF scht proportions And this explicable in his
large vision Of his duties. He than pastor OF
the First Presbyterian Church; he considered the whole
community his parish This conception he adopted not
10 the spirit Of proselyng but In the broader spirit Of
cooperation.
Dr. odel is going to a work very different from that
Of the pulpit He has declared openly that church in
America could tempt him from Troy But the call to
Delaware appeals to his imagination has an oppor-
tunlty there OF being the inspiration Of a commonwealth,
leading into highways Of progress in education social
service and every kind Of upft He will have behind
him almost unlimited funds and ample assistance Much
Trojans both within and without his church regret
his departure, they extend TO him every good wish for
success. He has put his mark on Troy and during his
short residence here has been powerful factor the
public life Of the city. That he will do even greater
things in Delaware is the hope and confidence of his
friends and associates here.
That tribute from Troy augurs well for the success
Of the work Of Dr. Odell in Delaware
He has here a fertile field for the exercise Of his
genius. We have doubt II will respond TO his
effort which viii be made along broad comprehensive
and patriotic lines

CIVILIZATION DEADLY TO ESKIMO.

s1rN ONT civilze the Eskmos" begged VUhalmar
~ stefansson, Arctic explorer, in a speech in New
York the other night
Why not? Well fast as Eskimos are civilized they
die. Stefansson says.
Civilization brings them booze, disease and habits
Of living The combination Is fatal.
As a rule civilization, such they get, anyway. is
deadly TO savages.
Is the fault in the savage in the civilization?
Well. there's lot to be said both sides Of the
question. Three things certainly true;
Civilization can stand lot Of Improvement.

Germany nearly strangled France;
and Clem lneeau Is naturally thinking
more OF minimizing France in the fu-
ture on her eastern border than he is
OF creating an ldeallzed solidarity OF
nations, with Germany restored TO
equality Of privilege.
Italy was a member, with Germany
and Austria-Hungary. OF the old Triple
Alliance. She cancelled that association
on grounds credltable TO her sagacity.
She embraced an opportunity 10 recov-
er her Irredenta She Joined the En-
tente. in consideration Of promises made
to her In the compact Of London. With
her, as with France and Great Britain,
the first object Of the war was to de-
stroy Teuton military power. She did
not fight Teutons in order to create a
consolidated Jugo-Slav state; that state
is simply a by-product Of the war; and
Italian political leaders, may reasonably
shrink from surrendering now any OF
the compensations guaranteed them
when Italy agreed TO draw the sword.
Mr.. Wilson's plea to Italy will amount
to a request to let the London compact
lapse, or at least not 10 urge unduly
italian claims on the eastern Adratic
littoral. Such a plea comes with good
grace from the head Of the American
government. which itself asks for moth
ing. But, though asking nothing,
America also surrenders nothing. There
in, perhaps, lies the weakness of the
appeal. Our sacrifices have been small
to Europe's. And we are
talking a different peace language.
The President will present his view 10
Italy with the same felicity with which
he has presented it to France and Great
Britain. II is a generous and broad
minded view, but not the only view.
Other conceptions Of just peace-one
of guarantees as well as Of Justice
will have to be considered before the
thought Of the Allied peoples and gov
ernments crystallizes into a peace
treaty.

PLUMB PLAN LEAGUE
BRANCH ORGANIZED
To Garry on Work of Educating
Public Sentiment to Scheme
for Naturalization of
Railroads.

permanent branch of the Plumb Plan
League was formed To carry on the WORK
of the league In this city, at meeting
held last night in lrlsh-American Hall
This action followed an address by Prof
Walter r. Kennedy, in which he out
lined the Plumb Plan for the dcmocra-
tlzation of the railroads OF the United
States. The following officers and com
mittees were elected:
X. II Thompson. president; Robert
Wade. vice-presidcnt; ii. I. Deskins,
secretary and treasurer; committee on
membership, E. r. Logan, Thomas Nc

public meetings, Frank Houck, Francls
Sheldon, Edward Higgins; committee on
literature and education, Herman j.
Mckenzie. John Glass: finance committee,
NJ. c. Ralston, Thomas McGonigai
II Il. Thomas.
The Plumb Plan recognizes the existence
of three major interests IN the railroads,
labor. capital and the public, SAID Pro-
fcssor Kennedy.
.'Capital invests the money which IS
necessary 10 operate the railroads; labor
represents the human investment, with
out which the roads could not run; and the
public is the consumer of transportation,
and is vltaIly interested in this basic IN

Kept Silent.

Wilson's message to the extraordinary
session of Congress was read to-day in
the House and Senate with most of the
members in their seats. In the Senate
the clerk, Henry NJ Rose, began the
reading promptly at noon, but there was
delay of half an hour in the House,
while members discussed priority of some
of the hundreds of bills which were
dropped into the hopper yesterday.
When Clerk South Trmbe completed
the reading in the House there was ap-
plause from the Democratic side. This
was the only demonstration, except scat
tering applause from the Republicans,
which greeted the Presidents declara-
tion that he hoped soon to be back in
Washington.
After the reading of the message the
House adjourned until tomorrow, out of
respect for the late Representative Carl
Q. Van Dyke of Minnesota. The Senate
adjourned at l:l5 o'clock until Friday.

Are Not Verified

London, May 20.-No definite news OF
the whereabouts of the Sopwith airplane

that the daring ayiators had come to

Newfoundland Sunday afternoon.

some message unless he met with an ac-
cident soon after the start.
