One of’ the most significant reports | from France tells of the organization | of an ‘army of the Rhine.” The | Kaiser is said to be withdrawing, | from various, sectors of the western front, picked*men of proved loyalty, to the namber of half a million, to/ constitute a rock-wall of defense. They are to take their stand back of the RHine, ready to repel invasion whenever the Allies, in their progress come to that natural barrier. If the report is trustworthy, it means that the German command has already recognized the turn of the tide, and given up hope of anything more ‘than a desperate last stand on German soj]. Those half-million men are sorely needed on the battle front, as is evidenced by the German defeat in Picardy, following close upon the disastrous failure of the Marne} drice. If the most effective fighters | are now withdrawn from a front al- ready unable to hold the Allies, there will be a sure and rapid acceleration ofthe German retreat. The Huns may be driven from France and Bel- gium moré quickly and easily than the most hopeful observers have an- ticipated. In’any event, such a development is bound to come sooner or later, next year very likely, if not this. That de- fensive army will constitute a new “Watch on the Rhine.” It may be expected to stand bravely, according to historic precedent. It may prove costly to us, for the forces now near- unto us,” says the Frankfurter Zeit- ung. And that’s nothing to what he’s going to do to them hereafter. Pir ee voice and action.

Approximately 400,000 tons of German shipping of the 600,000 in west coast ports are under Chilean protection. It has been confidently expected here that Peru would put the German ships in her ports in ser- vice, following her seizure of them some time ago as a precautionary measure against their destruction by German crews. Similar aetion is ex- pected on the part of Uruguay, since |her seizure of interned ships at Montevideo.

A fair-mind ed person might be disposed to set down most of this talk as due to mere animosity. That there is ample cause, how- ever, for the prince’s reputation is proved by the testimony of Dr. Davis, an American who was the royal family’s dentist until we declared war, and) who knows “Fritz” very well. ' The first time young Frederick William came to see Dr. Davis, he was so neryous and frightened over the prospect of having work done -on a sore tooth that he trembled all over. “I-suppose the crown prince and the future ruler of Germany ought to be brave at all times,” he admitted, ut I just hate to go to a dentist.”’ Hardly what one would have expected of a swashbuckling young war loard. “He was-such a physical coward,” says the dentist, “that it was almost impossible to work on him satisfac- torily.”” Moreoyer, he had no idea of the meaning of an appointment. He would agree to be at the office at ~9.30, then would call up at 10 say- ing he would be on hand at 11, and actually about 12, after the dentist _And wasted: his morning waiting for him.

The seriousness with which he .re- gards the drain of German manhood caused by the war, and also his atti- tude toward women, may be-inferred from a remark he made a year or two ago: ‘With se many men at the} front, the.men’ at home ought to be having a #ine time with the women, eh, what?
