The World which appears to be in close touch with the 'admnistration has this to | say ‘editorially: " “We are mot contemplating’ with Germany very seriously as vet, for we cannot believe that its rule: are so infatuated’ that practices cer- tain to justify war will be persisted in, But if, unhappily, this country should find that its honor and inter- ests can be maintained as against Germany only by war, we shall en- gage in the conflict on the same prin- ciple that has guided our course as & neutral. That principle is expressed | in. the words “America first.” The hopé generally expressed is that a war will be avoided. It is an abso- lute certainty that President . Wilson will expend every offort to -avert actual hostilities with Germany, but if at’'the end of that period his efforts fail, as the World says they will, 1t will be “America first.” war SUGGESTION l“pR PEACE. Jane Addams has made the sug- gestion tkat the sinking of the Lusi- tania should be made the occasion: for all neutral nations to get gether and use their' best influence to bring the war in Europe to'a close. 'This lo6ks lilke a sensible suggestion and there is a feeling that while it is aimed at Germany there is some rea- son for the bellef that the latter | country would be glad to -quit now if | it could do so without being considered | as having had enough of it and being anxious for peace. The general im-| pression in well informed, circles in this country is that Germany has xn-] jured itself more‘than England by, torpedoing: the Lusitania without giv-f ing those on board an opportunity to [, save their lives and it-s equally cer- tain that Germany thoroughly regrets | it now that it has been done and thei|’ enormity of the act is fully realized. | There is no extensive comment on that case from the standpoint of the loss of the great ship which is an evi- dence that the people everywhere are viewing it as a crime against human- ity while some have characterized it by the ugly term of wholesale mur- der. The war features are over- looked and even those who have been in sympathy with Germany since the war started have been among the| | first to criticise and condemn that country for the loss of so many lives for absolutely no reason whatever ex- cept that it wanted to strike a blow against England and in doing so struck down over a hundred Ameri- cans besides over a thusand others, among them many women and chil- dren. That may be war according to the fashion of 1915, but there are none to favor it, while on the contrary all nations have condemned it. The suggestion therefore of Miss Addams has a soundness about it that de- serves the serlous consideration of those whose influence is of import- ance and who are in a position to be of some value in this great crisis, to- Paying the Penalty.

Merely from the standpoint of life- saving, little seems to have ,been learned from the sinking of the Ti- tanic nearly three years ago. Germany’s submarine fired ‘the tor- pedo into the heart of the Lusitania the so-called water-tight compart- ments were found to be ineffectual. And although the time for getting away was frightfully short, the man- ning of lifeboats might have been ac- complished more expeditiously. As the survivors tell their stories of the horror following the attack on the Lusitania, it becomes more ap- izarent that there was little, if any, 1eal preparation for what might have been expected. The suggestion made by one of the passengers.that each passenger should be given a ticket in- dicating the lifeboat to which he should go in case of accident was ignored as being “impracticable.”” A further suggestion that the passen- gers be drilled in the essentials of life-saving was also ignored. None of these facts has any refer- ence to the way the. war is being waged, but they are decidedly perti- nent to the general problem of saving life at sea. .This problem has become more acute as a result of the war, and it is evident that the convention adopted at London by the various nations with a view to safeguarding ocean travel has been without avail. The difficulty of launching the life- boats is also accentuated by the Lusi- tania disaster, and it must now he ciear that some other type. of’ life- saving apparatus should be devised. The rafts which fell overboard from the Lusitania seemed to be more ef- fective than the boats: If such rafts were more numerous, the number of saved would be increased. Biggest Girl a Bride, (Kansas City Dispatch to Louisville Courier-Journal.) The union station was turned into a big side shaw and several persons missed their trains in am effort to get a look at Mrs. M. A. Gowdy, 16 years old, weight more than a quarter, of a ton, or, to be exact, 587 pounds. Aside from being the “biggest girl in the' world,” Mrs. Gowdy is a bride. -Until two weeks ago, when she was wedded to Gowdy, tall, lank and Weighing 118 pounds, she was Miss Josie Jolly. % “It may be nobedy love§ a fat man, but there’s men who love fat women —didn’t I catch a husband?" said Mrs. Gowdy. “I don't see why women who are fat_are forever complaining.” I am _satisfied. I like to be fat. You ‘don’t catch me rolling around og the ‘floor or taking any of these new¥an- gled exercises to reduce.

Disaster Not Humiliating. (New York Times.) Though the Lusitania was free from the structural faults to which the rapid sinking of the Titanic was as- cribed, she went down, even more quickly, and with a loss of life al- most as great. These facts do not show, of course, that precautionaty measures in the building of a ship are useless, but simply that any ship, if sufficiently injured, will go down in spite “of all that can be done to in- crease her factor of safety. In spite, that is, all that can be done with. out depriving her of utility fer the purpese for which ships are made. And the damage suffered by the Lusitania from the two torpedces heavily dharged with high explosives by which she was hit was far more extensive than that inflicted on the Titanic by a glancing blow from sul- merged ice. This is shown not only by the swiftness of her listing and sinking, but even more conclusively by the many passengers and members of the crew who were Kkilled or wounded by the direct effects of the two explosions. There was nothing like that in the other disaster, for then, though the ice opened a huge hale in the ship’s side, the injury was strictly localized, and what might he called superficial. It let in water, and that was all. Great as was the destruction wrought in the Lusitania, its extert seems not to have been promptly rea- lized by the first-cabin passengers. Unfortunately for themselves, they thought she would float much longer than she did, and the result was that the number of them saved was not proportioned to those who escaped from the other. cabins. It is gratifying, but not surpris- ing, to learn that there were no signs of panic, or even , of excitement, among the crew, and that every of- ficer did his full duty to the last, ‘Without knowledge of the circum- stances, there might—indeed, would— have been critical comment on the survival of the captain and the firsc and second officers, But the captain, according ;to convincing = testimony, obeyed the stern law of his rank and was rescued from the water after go- ing down with his ship, and presumau. bly his subordinates, unless ordered by him to take charge of boats, showed like" devotion to duty. Sees Russia Weakening. (Frankfurter Zeitung of April 21.) The Russian press is full of de- tails about the dearth of men in the country as a result of the calling to the colors 'of all who are able to do work. In the government of Ten- bow, for example, 122 men have been called to the colors in a community consisting 6f 100 farms, aside from the men who were serving in the stand- ing army before the war. Half of the farms, as a result, are stripped utterly of male laborers. To pump still more out of the exhausted sup- ply of human beings would be too dangerous an experiment for even the wisdom of the Russian government to undertake. Its methods heretofore have already taxed the moral reserves strongly, so that there is probably lit- tle left of the war enthusiasm of the early weeks. The fact that Russia, the greatest corn-exporting country of, Europe, is experiencing an-unprecedented rise in the price of its foodstuffs and may be threatened by famine in a war that prevents its corn exports—that would not have been expected even by those who knew the inability of the Rus- slan bureaucracy to reach prompt de- cisions with respect to organization. Russia, if the normal development is not soon- checked, will soon num- ber 200,000,000 -inhabitants. With the armies of millions which it can form from that supply, with the un- aging plans that run counter to the most important interests of Germany. with the ruthlessness of its policy of expansion and aggression, Russ will remain our most dangerous foe. As long as it is mnot reconstituted anew from the very foundation :t cannot refrain from the policy, which is the natural consequence of its in- ternal savagery. For that reason it is not because of political prejudices that we see in the present system of Russian government one of the great- est dangers of Buropean civilization. Only a full victory over the brutal force in the east can safeguard our future. Before we have gotten that far we need nct bother our brains about our relations to Russia. Eugenics and Diet. (New York World.) To the eating-places of every con- ceivable variety in New York is now added an “Educational Lunch-Room" in the Board of Health Building, a restaurant calculated to appeal Lo those who eat with a main - regard for the higher nutritive value of food. Here model menus are provided, care- fully chosen as to their relative pro- portion of proteids and calories, ard hygienically prepared under sanitar) conditions. Every person comnmected with “the kitchen, it is anncuncea “‘cooks, waiters and helpers,” is suv- jected to a rigid physical examination and certified as free froam typhoia germs. . ’ No doubt to some a small hot dish of calories may be as appetizing as a bird and a bottle, and doubtless there are others as well to whom a broiled lobster is made all the more palat- able by a knowledge of the amount of proteid in it. Even so, it is not conceivable that educational lunch- rooms. will multiply to an extent menace the lobster palaces. If men ate merely to live, diet might long ego have ben reduced to tablowd form, But as respects the institution f physical- examinations' for cooks aud waiters, if they are to be certifiad - SR e from disease germs, will the time come when guests may expect to be subjected to similar tests? With eating on, e eugenics’ basis, will it nst be logical to require the patrons te be vaccinated and to exhibit a' clean bill of health? The Old Sore in Color&do. (Pueblo Chieftain,) President Hayes of the united mine workers will not win any sympathy for the organization by saying that a strike will be called if John Lawson is sent to the penitentiary. In the first place his organization has not the funds to. conduct a strike, and in the second place public sentiment would never support a strike under such circumstances, The morning following the conviction of Lawson we advised that cool judgment pre- vall in every section of the state. We advised every friend or foe of Mr. Lawson to reserve prejudiced discus- sion of the verdict until after the case ‘has been passed upon by the supreme court. The people of Colorado are content to await this result. Whatever may have been the smaller causes of our strike the prin- cipal cause was the fact that Mr. Hayes came here and ordered it. Pub- lic sentiment never supported the : strike, Public sentiment will not sup- port another strike. Public sentiment in Colorado believes that in the end John Lawson will get justice. If his conviction was unwarranted he will be freed. If his conviction was wa ranted he will go to the penitentiary. The claim that the jury was fixed is unfounded, Already five men have been convicted as the result of the crimes committed during the strike. Certainly every jury in the state has not been fixed. The fact remains that over 100 persons were Kkilled during the strike, That they were murdered no one can deny. A jury of twelve men has said that John Lawson is re- sponsible for one of those murders. Eleven membérs of the jury held out for capital punishment while one stood out for life imprisonment. The one finally caused the eleven to change to life imprisonment. Under such circumstances Mr. Hayes will not be supported in any bluff about calling a state-wide strike. Frohman's Last Words. (New York Sun.) The flight of years will not efface the stain made upon a nation’s repu- tation by the slaughter of the inno- cents, but it will end the agony of grief and will leave only sad mem- ories, Among them will be some which men and women will cherish because of their association with the disclosure of the better trdits of hu- manity, DeatW is a pitiless destroyer of shams. In the presence of the last of terrors man cannot be a poseur; he must stand forth revealed in Tis completest truth. “Naked came 1 into the world; naked go I out of it,” was spoken of the body, but it may equally be said of the soul. Some who perished near Old Head of Kinsale did brave and generous deeéds. One whose bodily weaknesses made brave deeds impossible spoke great words. We do not know what Charles Frohman's faith was, but the words which he spoke to Rita Jolivet might have fallen from tae lips of Epictetus or Marcus Au- relius: = “Why fear death? It is the most beautiful adventure in life.” Mr. Frohman was known as a reserved man, a shy man; but in the presence of .death his spirit refused to be masked, and in its hour of fight its true greatness was discovered. Politics in WaShington. (Washingtop Letter to Boston Globe.) Poltical activity in so far as Wash- ington is concerned, seems to be cou- fined principally to the managers 9[ the various committees of the republ.l- can party who have headquarters in this city. The president and his cabinet and those responsible for the administra- tion of the government find matters of state far too pressing to be neg: lected for the preparation of a speci: fic political program. This, they be- lieve, can well wait a more fortuitous moment. - Not having similar responsibilities, republican party leaders are actively preparaing for next year’'s campaign.

Eats First Meal at 18, Louis Dispatch to Des Moines Register and Leader.) { Miss Katherine Besse, 18 years old, | (St. |stomach to the old opening in of Union boulevard, ate the firgt breakfast, luncheon and dinper she ever ate in her life a few days ago. | For sixteen years she had not tasted completely food of any description. | The channel of her throat, the eso- phagiis, was in position, but was en- tirely useless until Dr. Francis W.| Kirsch performed an operation known | as gastrotomy and brought her back | to normal. When she was 2 years old Miss | Besse, who is the daughter of the widow of a grocéer, drank a solution of lye while her mother was busy at her housework, The lye burned away the mem- | branes of the child’s mouth and the lining of her esophagus and caused this channel from her mouth to her stomach to become strictured and.to close tightly, A physician who was called to at- tend her said she woéuld die unless her esophagus was cut loose from her stomach and a new one made from parts of the stomach fashioned into a tube and sewed to the surface of | her . breast. The parents refused to permit the physician to cut away the deadened esophagus, but granted® him permis- | sion to bring the lining of the stom- ach to the surface -of her body and made an opening npear dhe solar plexus, through which liquid food might be given her. % Dr. Kirsch became intercsted in the case. He began a gentle probing with a slender pliable steel rod, which he forced down her esophagus., One ! afternoon the closed places In the old tissues were forced open and.| broken apart. As they were broken | they were left attached to the inside | of the new itssue that gradually had grown around the unused tube.

S, SN Responsibility Without a Precedent. (New York Times.) History records the names of many meh who adopted policies or issued | orders that resulted in® deaths far| more numerous than those that fol- | lowed the sinking of the Lusitania. kings and generals beyond computa- | tion have thus been responsible for the | slaughter of more millions than can | be counted, and in a way it was wu| direct responsibility. Its directness: | however, was not that of the man who loosed the torpedoes against the great | liner. That man knew that if his careful | preparations for hitting his selected target were successful the immediate and practically inevitable result wouid | be the drowning of a large part of the men, women and children on board the chip. The deaths that en- | sued were the results to be expected | at once from what he did with his, own hand, and there does not recur | to memory a single instance in which one act of one man was followed ! within a few minutes by the destruc- tion of so many lives. i “The warships that have been blown up in the same manner carried large | crews, of course, but none of them | had,a company on board like that | of the Lusitania, either in numbers or in composition.
