For a Fathers Day
70 the Editor Of the Tribune

10 the Editor of the Tribune.
Sir: The 9th of May was Mothers
Day. Everywhere could be seen people
wearing white and colored carnations.
even though the cost of living is high.
This tribute shows that the day has
become sacred one and loved by all.
In many of the churches sermons were
preached to revere the name Of mother.
The second Sunday in June is Chit
dren's Day. Who does not love this
day? What beautiful and festal oc-
casion it is in all churches throughout
the United States! I dearly love to
go to church on this day to see the
children march into the church from
the Sunday school and hear the pro-
gram that they have prepared.
Now, it's time we had a Fathers
Day; then the whole family will be
represented. | am sure it would be-
come as greatly loved as the other two.
AS Thanksgiving Day is the last Thurs
day in November, and our forefathers
did most to make this national feast
"ay' ana the w ora W ar was won on
the 18th of November by the fathers
that are now and the fathers Of the
next generation, wouldn't November
be an appropriate month for a Fathers
Day7
suggest that the fourth Sunday in
November be commemorated as Fathers
Day. and, as the aster grows abundantly
IN the fall, that white and coIored asters
be worn as a symbol of their strength
and endurance. the two predominating
characteristics in men.

The Ouf,uOrn Excuse

Something like an apology might
have had a certain interest, but this
attempt at wholesale justification is
intolerable. He uses the outworn
excuse that Germany was attacked
that she fought only defensive war.
Let us grant that this is true but not
exactly in the sense in which the pub
licst means: She was attacked just as
every scoundrel is attacked in spirit
and implication by every man who
lives decent and honorable life
There was a natural and inevitable
antagonism between the genius of the
civilization Of the Entente and that Of
German Kultur. The Teutons felt this
and complained that they were in the
midst of ring of hostile nations
hostile to their military spirit and
dreams of world conquest.
Yes, Germany was attacked. She
had been attacked, long before the ap-
peal to arms was made, by every man
in the Entente nations who thought a
free thought or did kind, disinter-
ested act or felt bound by the rules
Of honor, or justice or fair dealing, or
yielded to the impulse of sympathy.
For more than ten years, says Pro-
fessor Rohrbach, his country chad
watched ring Of hostile nations clos
ing round it." Yes, hostile to the
principles of international morality
Cor rather immortality and national
comfy which its political teachers and
military leaders-Nietzsche and Bern
hardi-had inculcated
The Entente nations propaganda
against Germany in pre-war days was
we'll founded, but, unfortunately, was
needed by very few. Lord Roberts
knew what it meant and what the
toast, DER Tag" meant, but the alarm
was not general

The Illinois Primary
4 Charge That Wood Votes Are
Being Turned to Lowdcn
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The recent primary elections en-
phasize the need Of better method Of
making effective the will of the people
in the nomination Of candidates for
President
Here in Illinois only three candidates
we're voted for-Governor Lowden, Gen
eral Wood and Senator johnson. Low
den received 236,802 votes; Wood 1885,
719; Johnson, 64,201. If it were the
intent Of the law that the state should
vote as unit in the national conven-
ton Governor Lowden would unuucs-
tlonably be entitled to the solid vote Of
Illinois. But the election was a national
not state affair; the voters voted by
Congressional districts and the vote of
each district is certainly binding upon
the delegates of that district.
The Illinois law makes this very plain.
1t says: "Provided the votes of the
state at large shall be taken and consid-
cred as advisory to the delegates and
alternates at large, and the vote of the
respective Congressional districts shall
be taken and considered advisory to the
delegates and alternates of said Con-
gressional Districts"
Now, under this law General Wood
carried nine Congressional districts, all
in Cook County, by substantial plurali-
ties. Only two men running as Lowden
delegates were elected in these disticts;
all the others, sixteen in number, re-
celved no other instruction than that
which the voters of the districts gave
them at the polls. AS to whether the
two Lowden delegates should regard
the vote of their districts as binding
there may be some question, but there
can be no question that the other six
teen delegates are under moral obliga-
ton to vote for General Wood.
Nevertheless, in the face of the plain
language of the law and of the will Of
the majority of the voters, an agree
ment has been reached between the
thompson faction in Chicago and the
Lowden faction downstate to deliver
these sixteen Wood delegates to Gov
ernor Lowdcn. This agreement was
reached at conference held in the
Governors mansion Sunday, May 9, the
day before the State Republican Con-
vention, at which conference both Gov
ernor Lowden and Mayor Thompson
were present.
1t is we'll known that Mayor Thomp-
son opposed General Wood in the pri-
maries On the evening before the pri-
mary election he issued a statement In
which he said: eve are not for any can
didate who stands for compulsory mill
tary training"
The Wood voters in Chicago are
naturally indignant at having the dele
gates openly elected and instructed by
them at the polls, in accordance with the
law, turned over to another candidate
by political bosses in a secret confer
ence.
l believe The Tribune cannot do a
bigger or better service than by investi-
eating similar conditions in all the
states where preferential primaries were
held and publishing the truth to the
people. The great question Is whether
the bosses or the people are to control
the next Republican Convention.

Two Views of Rashness

To the Editor or The Tribune.
Sir: How does Secretary Daniels
square President Wilson's Fourth of
July fireworks speech to the navy with
his statement after the Lusitania sink
ing that "patriotism is dangerous
virtue" and that ~ should be as
ashamed of being rash as being cow
ardly'? In my opinion, he has thrown
prudence to the winds" in publishing It.

He Kept Us Out" Slogans

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: A good slogan for the Democratic
party would be "He kept US out of
peace"
Another one, "He kept US out of
clothes"
Still another, "He kept the dollar
from being worth 100 cents"
There are many other good slogans
which the Democrats could adopt for
their coming campaign.

Since. Germany Failed

Nietzsche taught that the worst of
all so-called virtues was sympathy;
that sympathy always has been and
always will be an obstructive force in
the normal development of humanity
vigorous eras, noble civilizations see
something contemplate in sympathy.
Brotherly love is lack of self-asser-
ton and self-reliance" The whole sum
and substance Of it is that might
makes right and that survival is the
only test. These principles of German
Kultur were written in fire and blood
on the fair lands of France and Bel
GUM during the great war. Judged
by her own standard, Germany was
wrong because she failed. Had she
succeeded, nothing but the Germani-
cation of the world would have salts
fed her ambition.

driven by the noisy comment on the

comment probably has an instep high

The Exam pie Of Satan

| can but repeat: In the same way
that Satan may justly feel that he is
attacked by every moral and religious
precept inculcated in school and
church, Germany was attacked His
Satanic Highness may look upon the
Golden Rule itself as a direct assault
upon his most cherished schemes,
damaging evidence of preparedness and
even of mobilization.
Germany's war gospel as preached by
Nietzsche is illustrated by their who
conduct Of the war. What was that
gospel? I have never read it and never
intend to, but DR.. Hibben, of Prince
ton, has made study of it, and here
are some of the principles which he
finds.
There is but one vice and that is
weakness, and but one virtue and that
is strength"
at is better to cherish and develop
our brute Inheritance than to be
stepped in the dreary commonplaces of
morality"
"Whatever prospers is right, what
ever fails is wrong"
"The supreme duty of life is to for
get that we owe any duty but to our
selves"
"There is no standard of conduct
but success"

them to a dead level of mediocrity.,
