May 4, 1918, “Right is More Precious than Peace” AMERICAN PRISONERS. No one can fail to be deeply moved by the report which is given by an escaped French prisoner.of war of the treatment which is being given to the American prisoners in Germany. In view of previous information which has been obtained about the manner in which the Teutons treat the men, women and children of Belgium, to #ay nothing of the prisoners of war, there can be no surprise at the in- formation which is now presented. Previous disclosures have made it easy to believe that no exaggeration is being indulged in by this French- man. It is right in keeping with the conduct of Germany ever since the opening of the war. It makes no dif- ference what consideration is being shown German prisoners that country is determined to show no mercy bhut to force enemy subjects to do the hardest kind of work for the benefit of the imperial German government and to give them the least possible in the way of sustenance. Although it has been repeatedly maintained that packages which are sent to prisoners containing food and necessary supplies will be delivered, this latest story is decidedly to the contrary, which indicatés that if such packages are being sent into Germany they are being used by Germany for its own purposes and not to make the burden of the prisoners any lighter, or even to keep them in better con- dition to discharge them. There are certain agencies which are charged with this work of looking} ofter American prisoners. . There are nations whose representatives are sup- posed te supervise prison cemps and with such tales it is time that they were made to investigate and bring about the needed reform in these rections if such a thing is possib! The contrast between the treatment of prisoners in Germany and the United States is too great. GET AT THE FACTS. It would perhaps have been better had the inquiry which has been cr- dered Into the doings of the airplane board been instituted following the report made by the accredited repre- sentative of the president instead of waiting until it was called for by members of congress, but it is never- as to what the American military au- thorities thought of cértain phases as they developed. . But there was no good reason why there should not be a daily statement of the operations of the Americans oven as of the other nations fighting with them. Our forces have heen play- is steadily increasing. American troops are located at several points doing real and commendable fighting. Inasmuch as the enemy is well ac- quainted with such facts there can be no reason for .withholding informa- those who are the most deeply inter- ested therein. Such reports must be put forth with care for jt is not to be supposed that secrets will be revealed under such a method of giving out the news any more than they are at present, but it is only proper that we should get our aceounts first hand and get them officially. WHAT GERMANY INTENDED Long ago before Russia had actually trouble that was developing within its borders made it evident to Germany that there was an opportuinity to pro- fit from contributing to the unrest which existed,in that country by mak- ing peace with the Ukraine and draw- ing therefrom the supplies which it so greatly needed. N Deluded by the offerings of Germany the Ukrainians jumped for the bait. Their action permitted Germany to carry out its plans regarding the rest of Russia and to force Rumania intd a declaration of a German made peace. Ukrainia may have thought that it was lessening its troubles but from recent developments it must trealize that it has gone from the frying pan into the fire. Germany is showing no more respect for the peace treaty with Ukrainia than it did for the treaty with Belgium or than it has for in- ternational law in the making of which it participated, Finding that the Ukraine govern- ment was proceeding to look out for|Drotection to Gers itself and not putting forth the last ounce of its energy for the purpose of aiding Germany, and that it wae in fAct resenting the dictation of that country which insisted upon the de- votion of its whole attention to Ger- many’s interests, the Teutonic military authorities have proceeded to use the iron fist and the Ukraine is going to be made to do German bidding by force. If the Ukrgine expected any- thing different it must now realize that it used poor judgment with the many recent examples of German conduct before it. Germany has of course done no more than it intended. WHY NOT CLEAN UP? While there are many commendable efforts underway at the present time which would not be occupying atten- tion but for the fact that we are in- volved in war, it is nevertheless evi- dent that we cannot overlook the need at this season of the year of am or- ganized clean-up movement for im- proving the general appearance of the community. There are those of course who look after such matters without special at- tention being called to it, and the number is not small, but there are others who would be glad to partici- pate in such a campaign if there was the same interest displayed by neigh- bors and acquaintances whose oppor- tunity for bringinz about many small improvements js just as great as theirs, Getting cleaned up and staying that way are two different things. Tho first may not take much time but the latter needs continual effort, and on the other hand the first, may be quite a job but when done thoroughly it i3 muech_easisr to keep so.

The rada, the parliament of Ukraine, has been placed under ar- rest for opposing this latest German aggression. As a matter of. fact the Germans are bitterly disappointed in what Russia has been able to supply. The stores of grain that all the world assumed were on hand, have long since been consumed or destroyed. Owing to the disorder throughout the country a year. ago. the peasants reaped no crops, and this year they are not even It is this feature of the situation_especially that angers Ger- many. With the collapse of Russia, she had supposed that her own food uestion was solved. Instead she finds on her eastern border a huge, seeth- ing. discontented mass of peasants un- restrained by any competent govern- ment and disinclined to raise crops @Giyen time encugh and Germany would undoubtedly bring order out of chaos and make Russia a wonderfully productive region. As it is instead of a solution of their present difficult situatiom, the Germans are finding ‘themselves confronted with another problem. While the relation between Germany and Holland are not so strained as was the case two weeks ago, the pos- sibility of a rupture must ‘still be reckoned with. Nobody knows better than the Dutch government that Ger- many only refrains from violating the neutrality of the Netherlands because she believes it to her own interest not to do so. Hoiland neutral is a better ny than Holland occupild, even if t*re were available men to do the occunying. Meanwhile | new demands are constantly made of the Dutch, demands such that Hol- land cannot pessibly fulfil and at the same time maintain her obligations as a neutral. For example Germany has recently demanded the use of Hol- land railway and canal systems for the transportation not only of civilian but also of war supplies, in the hope of thus freeing the Belgium lines for the use of troops. The Dutch look at the network of German railways terminating near their own bgrder and manifestly designed to be linked up with the Duteh lines; they see the cruel fate of Belgium imposed on her for daring to reject the German terms, and they dare not refuse. - Yet if Hol- land yields to all the German demands and becomes thereby an ally of the Kaiser, all her colonies are lost to her forever, becoming at once the spoil of the power that controls' the sea. There are a million square miles of these colonies and the population of them far outnumbers the population of Holland itself. They include the marvellously rich islands of Borneo and Java, Dutch Guia%a on the coast of South American and a number of islands in the Caribbean Sea. The sympathies of the Dutch are undoubt- edly on the side of the allies, but the proximity of the Hun has all the while kept the little country in an agony of suspense. As a last resort to save serself from invasion. she has her dikes, which have figured more than once in her history. The, Dutch say- ing: “A drowned land is better than a lost land” well expresses the stern resolution of a strong and sturdy,na- tion. Day after day goes by and the re- newal of the German attack below Ypres' is delayed. There have been several trial attacks to the south of the river Lys between Meriville and Bethune, but these have proken down before they ever reached the British lines.

It.isn't natural! It isn't kind! “Why, the boatload of us tipped over one day last summer and while every one else got out looking like drowned rats, pet, seals and other dripping slinky things, what do you suppose happened to Ethel?

Dust never sticks to her face on these trips—it hurries by to land on me.” “Maybe Ethel will be shipwrecked some time and lose ali her hairpins, cold cream and face powdeg,” suggest- ed the patient listemer kindly. “Oh, pooh!” wearily said the girl who likes to talk, “that girl is gapable of grinding up shelis for face powder, making hairpins out of twigs and a whisk broom out of tree bark to.keep her clothes speckless!

The people have left no doubt but that they believe it is their war, not Wilson’s war, as the German press preaches daily to its readers, not a capitalist war, as Trot- zky assures the Russian proletariat, but a war for all people of whatever race, who loves freedom and the right of self-government. THE SEASIDE SANATORIUM LET US END THIS SUMMER SELFISHNESS. Waterbury Republican.) You have certainly noticed children hunch-backed or lame, or with twisted limbs or bodies. Usu- ally this is due to tuberculosis of the bone. It is a disease which for ages was unknown or obscure. Now there are means of treating it. Outside of surgical aid, the best results are obtained by life on a sandy beach all the year round, liv- ing as much as possible in the open air within sight and sound of salt water. This has been proved by years of experiment on the coasts of Eu- ropean countries which have been much more forward in treating this affiction than the United States. many pay their income ‘and excess profits | Views of the Vigilantes ONE WRIST-WATCH SAMMY By Katharine Eggleston of The Vigilantes A bloated, boastful-looking man sat at a lunch table alone. Men came to him occasionally. He made notes in a small book. He was. engaged in the highly-useful profession of book-mak- ing. His bulging eyes caught sight of a wrist-watch on the arm of a young man in khaki. “Humph! pretty Sammy _and his wrist-watch! All dolled up and don’t know how to fight! 'Won't the business end of a bunch of Boche guns make him run. Ought to have a stop-watch to keep a record of his get-away speed. These picture soldiers make me sick! Wonder what that wrist-watch Sammy’ll do when they send him over the top. Poor boy!” People around him burned at the in- sult to the uriform. The lady with the khaki-clad Sammy rose and went to the check-stand. She returned with a pair of crutches. The-Sammy’s right leg was off at the knee. Thrilling to the effectiveness of the reproof to the unpatriotic animal and thrilling with a deeper something that brought the tears, every man and woman in that restaurant rose.

It is only fair therefore that the charges which have been made by Gutaon Borglum should be substantiated or disproved. The people are entitled to know whether he has been misinform- ed, whether he has failed to look at the matter from all angles and whether he hag put forth the eolid facts or jumped at conclusions from a cursory examination. Under the existing situation it is only proper that Howard Coffin, the former head of the aircraft board, should ask the president to take the step which he has in setting the in- vestigation on foot. Just as long ad the charges made are allowed to stand unrefuted Mr. Coffin is right in claim- ing that it is endangering the repu- tation of the men involved. They should have the opportunity to prove their innocence if that can be dore, for as long as the charges stand as they do it means a blot from which the government as well as individuals will suffer. OFFICIAL DAILY REPORTS. Following closely upon the change whereby the addresses are now given in the casualty lists, the announce- ment is made that there is to be a daily statement regarding the activity of the American forces. We have been getting a weekly review of war operations, ch covered not only those in which the Americans partici- pated, but the whole war situation. DBeing weekly it was necessarily of lit- tle importance because it was simply a review of what had already been ade known through other channels. e only real interest therefore in (such a communication wascthe, opin- on _which _was_ occagignally : included *ends. More German language newspapers are going out of business. It is the proper course for them to take if they cannot be loyal otherwise, Austria is going to start a new of- fensive to prevent demoralization among its forces, but Italy can be re- lied upon to take the place of inac- tion. It is useless to cable the results of the third Liberty loan to the kaiser. The good subjects of Germany still in this country have already looked out far that. Thé one who has the greatest diffi- culty in understanding the present price of eggs is the old timer who used to buy them in most any quan- tity at 15 cents a dozen. — When Pope Benedict decides that there has been no development to warrant another peace move it is quite evident that he does not intend to play the German game. The New England boys have been doing some fighting “over there” but there is a lot of satisfaction in know- ing that it has been fighting which shows what they are made of. The difficulties which Germany is experiencing is getting control of southern Russia is fully indicated by the statement that the fortress of Se- bastopol was taken without fighting. Quite a contrast is shown when a soldier is sentenced to 15 years’ im- prisonment for refusing to be vacci- nated and an enemy alien, who has heen working for the Xaiser, is put in an internment camp till the war March and 240,000 tons in April, and we have only just begun. What the achievement means is seen when it is considered that Great Britain, mo- ther of ships, built but 169,000 tons in March, and hopes to produce 250,- 000 tons per month by mid-summer. In all the United Knigdom there are but 209 shipways, while the United States will soon have 730 and every one busy. Steel for these ships is be- ing produced in numberless mills all over the country and so perfect is the work that the parts fit as they would if made in a single yard. The fabri- cated ship is ng ionger an experiment and they will follow each other down the ways just as fast as the steel mills can supply the material. Al shipbuilding records were broken on May 5th, when the steel freighter Tuckahoe, 5,548 tons, slid into the Delaware exactly seven days and three hours after her keel was laid. More than that, contrary to the usual prac- tice, the vessel was 85 per cent com- pleted, having engines and boilers in- stalled and funnel and masts ereted. Fifteen days more and she will be in the service of Uncle Sam. The signi- ficance of the feat is that its accom- plishment was the result of rivalry between the yards and enthusiasm among the workers. It shows what men can do when inspired with patri- otic zeal. Fourteen more ships are in process of construction in the same fl;]om which the Tuckahoe was launch- ed. The most gratifying thing about the third Liberty Loan is the unprece- dented number of subscribers. Speech~ es, parades, rallies, all have their place, but after all it is money that talks, and the voice of seventeen mil- lion people’s money is loud enough to be heard above the roar of the guns from the North Sea to the Swiss bor- der, and unmistakable enough to be hearkened to in the innermost council chamber of Berli. The total of the third loan may not equal that of the second, The great corporations did people who can afford to spend their summers by the seaside will claim to be enlightened?
