T cannot ac-! more stri usual, Mr. Berger has repeatedly defend- ed the sinking of the Lusitania. He regarded it as quite justifiable, ap- parently for Germany not only to,¥®* ruling elder in Old. Plymouth take up arms agaiftst her neighbors, but to assassinate helpless noncom- batants when the German govern- ment happened to consider them as standing in the way of accomplish- ing its military purposes. And yet ho has insisted that it was wrong for the United States to raise an army to defend itself against such Ger- man attacks on American property, rights and lives. The absurd conflict of logic in such an attitude is evident.. ‘The curious thing about it is that Social- ists, of all men,. should have thus championed German aggression and violence. Needless to say, neither | Victor Berger nor any other Social-: ist of any repute preached for a generation before the war, the right and justice of such acts as the in- vasion of Belgium and the sinking of the Lusitania. Socialism made headway precisely because it frreached a gospel of brotherhood, justice, peace and good will to men. It is one of the strang- est facts in political history th a movement, in theory so ide: such alistic, should have been suddenly perverted, in this and various other countries, to a practical championship of a Ger-| man yvstem of political and military ion which is the diametrical opposite of what Socialism had al-| ways professed to represent. Socia ism as a theoretical plan for | reconstructing society still exists, and commands support among many thinking men as one possible solu- tion for political and economic prob- lems. But any intelligent non-Social- ist must wonder how. men holding such views as those of Victor Berger other Ijke-minded and Americans can still call themselves Socialists. 0 ‘indemnities,. and self determination |$ A ROOSEVET HIGHWAY The suggestion that a great na- tional highway be named for Theo- dore Roosevelt is timely and approp- riate. The need of good highways is{ recognized more today than ever be-| fore. We have got rid of the old notion that a road was something of little more than local value. The growth of transportation needs and the development of the, automobile and motor truck have} raised the country highway to a place | of dignity comparable with tnat of the tailroad. We are learning to, think of roads in terms not of the| township and county, but of the state| and nation. { We already have our “Lincoln Highway,” constituting a fine monu-| ment’ id at the same time serving impo: ctant purposes of utility and} pleasgr Another great paved high-/ way tehing across the continent| wouldy worth more to’ the country | ina riracticul pax than its cost would amount to.” It'would also setve'as a (aut West together in aw or andj Judging from action taken in the} split ;national prohibition amendment, the ‘ Arkansas “slow train” Is running on THE BUDGET SYSTEM { (From the Laramie Republican) a new schedule. {cise economy in the transaction of its | affairs. ay \t? be a good one from every stand-!
