There is bound to be some objéction to the “trading with the enemy” bill and particularly so in regard to the amendment Which places a cénscrship upon publications and the barting of them from mails and other means of distribution. The measure gives large powers to the postmaster general, which under ordinary* conditions would note asked and most cértain- Iy would not be tolerated. The real danger however lies in an improper use of the power that is conférred. But the times are extraordinary. There is the welfare of the . nation which must be considered.

Af determined effort was made to nave congress turn down the appro- priation, in spite of the fact that the communities in which they-are main- continuance not only because of the prompt service which they afford but because the continuance of such a quick method of transportation means avoiding the necessity of employing motor trucks for the further conges- tion of the already overcrowded streets, but the congressional commit- tee Is now making a study of the sit- uation for the purpoge of getting to the bottom of the matter. It is not surprising that the bustt ness interests, wherever the commit- tee goes. are found to be almost unanimously opposed to the abandon- ment of the tubes. It cannot be ex- pected that they would approve any thing which was detrimental to their interests and that is what the aban- donment of the tube eervice would amount to. The postal serviee today is bad enough without attempting any- thifig which would in any particular make it worse.

This course should include a_back: ward glance.over the military history of the United States. It 1s worth while for the soldier to recall why and how the men before us fought for Amercan principles and rights.

The farmers and shopkeepers and mechanics and fishermen who rushed to arms at the beginning of the Revolution did not at first realize they were forming a new Views of the Vigilantes The Duty of German-Americans to Germany. By Gustavud Ohlinger of The -Vigi- lantes. “To speak German is to rémain German; to cause others to Speak German’ is to make them into Ger- mans.” In this way Ludwig Fulda, one of the most prominent of modern Ger- man playwrights and journalists sum- marized his observations in ths United States. is evidenced . by the stern measures adopted by Germany for- the purpese of establishing the use of German in the Polish provinces and in Alsace— by the decrées which forbade French the orders making it a crime to im. part religious instruction in the Polish tongue. The propaganda for the German lan- guage has always been a_ well-recog: nized phase of imperial Kulturpolitik. It was regarded as an important means for establishing German influence in foreign lands, for undermining na- tional unity, and for keeping German immigrante in solid blocks which could be used as convenient make-weights in favor of German polictes. As one of the leaders in the Pen-Garman move- ment expressed it years azo. “the im- portance of Germany in the ftture will depend on two things—first, the siom- ber of persons,who are politically sub- ject to the empire. and, second, the number of those throuzhout the world who speak the German language.” That the kaiser’s sympathizers in the United States have taken this course to heéart is borne out by the vigorous efforts which havé been made to establish the German language in cur public schools ever since the Pan- Glerman idea came to active conscious. ness here some twenty vears ago. Dur- ing this period the numier of high school pupils taking instruction in German has risen from 58,000 to 312, 000. Even more marked has been the increase in this direction in the grade schools. . Now that the efents ¢f the Jast few months have taught America:ue tq look upon this apparentiy innocent educa- tional movement in the samc light in which it has always been held by Ger- mans both here and in Germanv, it is small wonder that they will have none of it. German language instructfon has been abolished in all the grade schools of Toledo: in Cleveland it has been eliminated from the first four erades: in Baltimore from all the grades: in Milwaukce American chil- dren will no longer have the®advan- tage of a bi-lingual education in the first and second grades, and even Chi- rago has torn from its spellinz books the nauseous adulation of the kaiser which the exponents of Pan-German policies had-caused to be inserted, That this aversioy for everything German will be 4ntensified with time is inevitable. The danger is that it will attach to much that is admirable and that we could adopt with advan- tage. Our civilization will thereby be made the poorer. One of the great tragedies of the war is that the evil ambition of the Hoherzollerns has laid its foul hands upon the sacred heritase of the Gérman people and impregnated it with the poison of its contact, so that for centuries it will provoke the loathing of the wqrld. ‘These'consequences can in some de- gree be ayerted by our citizens of German birth. It rests with them to prove to us and to the world that a wide chasm separates the Germany of Schiller, Goethe and Lessing from the monster state created by thé Hohen- zollerns and their servants: that the genius that peopled the woods and dales with the fairies of childhood has nothing ,in common with the demon that ravhged Belgium, France and Po- land; that the German spirit 1s indeed free and not sunk in hopeless servility to unworthy masters. But not by lukewarm allegiance to .6ur country, not by carping criticism of things American, nbt by secret gratification over the reverses of our allies, can they bring this about. The Turnver- cin, the Liederkranz, the Stadtverband, the Nationalbund and Deutschunter- richt must all be forgotten. The story of American liberty, from-its founda- tions In Magna Carta to the present time, must displace all these as the subject of their propaganda: every- thine ghat will contribute to our over- Wwhelming victory must be the obfect of their activity. Through such men, after the war, will the benefits of Ger- man science, art and literature be transmitted. By such men alone can the odium which the Hohenzollern dy- nasty has drawn upon all things Ger- man be averted, and the treasures of Genl':uy‘l past be preserved for the world. - i Before retir- ing, use-with warm water and insure a n‘r.full night. t.
