We should have the highest respect for the German born free citizen who stands true to his colors, and is in the front trenches teday with 2 mes- rage of truth for his mistaken breth- ren acrosg the Rhine. We have to acknowledge that we have men of German pareptage who are mighty lLielpers of the government fight for larger privileges for commen peopie in all parts of the world, and the preservation in its in- tegrity of this asylum of ours for the onnressed of all nations. A war correspondent . of a Rerlin newspaper writes: “Among the Amer- iean prisoners a surprisingly large percentage hear German names. They #ay men of German descent are 'prom*- inent among American army leaders.” It has dawned at last upon Perlin that Uncle Sam has a loyal army of Germans here, not the Kaiser. Ger- man money could not make German patriéts disloyal: and it was Ger- many who turned millions given In a humzne spirit, to war purposes, against the design and wish of the denors. We can imagine what may happen to these Germans if taken prisoners; and the contumely with which they will be reccived by the misguided nopulace. But they are true biue pa- triots and they are mighty factors for the disillusion of their brothers acress the Rhine We have great army leaders, great statesmen, great financiers of German descent, honorable and true and just and worthy the nation’s admiration. GREAT BRITAIN IN THE WAR. A few prejudiced Americans still have the temerity to ask: “What has Great Britain done in this war?' . She has hopored her treaty obli¥a- tlons with Belzgium and done ten times more than she agreed to when ehe entered the conflict. She has niockaded 35,900 miles of seacoast, hottled up the German navy and kept the sea as free as possibla for meutral nations. 8he has cnilsted eight million five hundred thousand men, some four million or more of whom are on Bel- gian apd French territory; and she has lemt over six billions to the al- lies to pramote the war, and given to the French Red Cress a million and a half in money. Her war expense has been more than twenty-fiva million dollapg & dgy for four years, and to every call for money there is a prompt and senergus response, She was protecting the rights of America and the freedom of our peo- ple for three years while the real de- signs of the Huns were being made clear to our governmen{. She held he enemy of ciyflization at hay for faur years. Great Dritain has tramsparted the greater part of the Amerjcan treops ta France; and in the churches throughout the empire this prayer ta- day is being devoutly said: “Almighty Ged, we thank thee for the powerfu} and tinely aid of the United States ©f America.” THE COMMUNITY TABLE. the purpose of supplying the people with fresh vegetables at reasonable, or at least uniform prices. At the opening the supply did not begin to equal the demand; but it gave birth to bright hopes for better and mere rational conditions for the future. The community table is not only o,?en to the large farmer; but every kitchen gatrdgner .thers has a chafhce to sell his surplus, and thiz will re- sult in a Gecided conservation of food. The growers of the foed are not even required to sell the goods to the consumers, but merely to place them on the community table, where they will be sgld en a percentage basis.

THIS IMPOVERISHING WAR. It is a discredit to this age that less than 130 designing men could in- volve 25 natiens in such a senseless and devastating world-war as the present. The population of the Central Em- pire, which started the war for con- qguest, is estimated to be 143721- 200: and th= 22 opposing nations have 1,349,561,000 people. The comparative wealth is 150 bil- lion dollars for the Central Empire against 406 kbillion for the Entent: countries. : The seven leading belligerent na- tions have spent in the past *four vears 184 billion dallars, and the number of man lost total § 1-2 miflien kilied and 7 1-4 million wounded. The logs to the tworld in produetive man- power is estimated at 45 billlen dol- lars annually. The total cest fought sinee the. American Revolu- tion. the aggresgate fighting period covering sixty years, was only $23,- 000,000,000, making the expenditures of the present war for only four vears six_times greater. It is about one- third of the total national weaith of the chief belligerents. 'The combined average daily war cdat, eamputed on a four-year hasis, is about $107,500,- 000, or $4 479,000 each hour of the day. This is from a caraful computation made by R. E.

In the weekly Deutsche Politik of June 238 Herr Paul Rohrbach publishes a fiery appeal for greater confidence in Germany's Eastern destinies. The doubts and anxieties about Russia which have found concentrated express- ion in the Frankfurter Zeitung have been pgradnally aceumulating, and “Earterners” like Rohrbach are very anxious now to whip up fresh enthu- siaem, Rohrbach begine with a long dis- sertation on the weakness of German policy and its lack of inspiration.
