AFTER THE WAR British business interests already are laying “after the war” plans for regaining Britain’s share of the world’s peace commerce. They believe that German competition in neutral countries will be keener than ever, and that Germany will have the “edge” on other countries, because the German world power party already has laid down a pro- gram of slavery wages for peace toilers in Ger- man factories. a ) ‘ Geman rulers believe that the four years of war deprivations have breught German workmen to ‘the point where they will be glad to accept lower wages than before the war and will. be satisfied with but little improvement in their pres- ent. living condition. ‘ That points to a German campaign of - low prices to attack British, American, French and Japanese commerce. But Germany cannot acquire any marked de- gree of success in her after-the-war commercial: efforts unless she gets her hnads upon the world’s raw materials. Germany is destitute of raw mate- rials. But she proposes to grab them. “Germany shall have a concentration of. raw materials for the purpose of supplying the world after the war,” declares Dr. Bernard Dernburg, former special representative of the German gov- ernment in the United States. Continuing, he out- lines the Hun peace table program: “At the peace conference we must not only demand these advan- “tages, ‘but command them by force if necessary.” There, Mr. Workingman and Mr. Capitalist, is what’ Germany is fighting for—control of the world’s raw materials so that she can “supply the world” with manufactured goods. ‘In other words, Germany would have America dig-her iron ¢re and copper, grow her cotton, and send them to German factories, where German men, women ‘and children, beaten’ into virtual slavery by the war lords, would toil for mere ex- have grumbled over the ever decreasing food ra- An empty ‘stomach is'a poor ally-and Wilhelm ; and Carl may have some ‘difficulty in explaining Gott’s. dereliction :to their half-starved subjects.

WITH THE EDITORS 1 weeeceeccnscecccc co ecoeeccocosooososooors IMPORTANT TRANSPORTATION MOVE The announcement recently that’ the federal railroad administration would expend approxi- mately two and one-half million dollars. in the establishment of a system of barge lines on in- land waterways is a’ matter of great importance to the transportation service of the country. While it isnot exactly the initial step by the govern- ment, the government having already’ contracted for the construction of 18 barges and provided power boats for the, upper river, the establish- ment and operation by the government of a trunk line system on the lower river not only marks a decided advance in river transportation facilities in that quarter, but it promises greatly to stimu- late extensions through other parts of the inland 4 waterway system. ; This decision’ is the result of a presentation of the matter before the interstate commerce com- mission a few days ago by the inland waterway commission and the recommendation of ‘the latter: commission to the railroad administration that the proposed service be provided for and'under- taken to the extent of the expense above indicated. Government action to this effect, has been ‘urged by commercial interests of the Mississippi valley: as a legitimate corollary to. government adminis- tration’of the railroad system. ‘Whether it will result in further extension of government owner- ship and operation of barge lines, or whether, having demonstrated their success financially, the extension of the service will be left to private enterprise is a matter of relative unimportance. The fact of special consequence is that the feasi- bility Hi employing the‘river as an adjunct to the railway transportation system ‘is to be tried out. The risk which private capital has hesitated to incur, the government will undertake. } The best transportation authorities have con- tended that the commercial and industrial: pros- perity of the great middle west depends now in large measure upon the utilization of the natural waterways, and a step of this character, calculat- istence. The effect of that on American workmen would ‘eOWEP Wises HFM Pitiful living-condition.

The Flanders drive started April 9, was stopped.in 10 days, re- quiring the longer period because it came unexpectedly. Bes a Allies May Strike Back. The drive of May 27 on the Cham- pagne front, however, reached its greatest extent'in five days, and was ‘stopped fn six. In the fourth effort of ‘the Germans between.\Noyon and Cha- teau Thierry, begun June 10, Gen. aoen had stopped the enemy in three days and was counter-attacking. Thus it is clear that Foch has, rais- ied his system of maneuvering re- serves to such a state of perfection that in each offensive they are thrown in in les stime than in those previous.
