President Wilson is meeting the Bryanites of his party with a presentation of the issues in- volved in preparedness such as leaves very little for them to stand on, unless they retreat wholly behind their great leader’'s dream of universal peace. At Chicago, the president delivered the most momentous utterance of his speechmaking carcer when he said, referring to the people of Europe: They do not feel the conviction of America, that our mission is a mission of peace and that righteous- ness cannot be maintained as a standard in the midst of arms. They do not realize that back of all our energy we are a body of {dealists much more ready to lay down our lives for a thought than for a dollar One of the really serious mistakes persisted in by the older nations is in misunderstanding or fallure to comprehend this characteristic of Americans, Our notions of democracy differ radically from the Buropean conception. Wher- ever democracy has been experimented with in Burope, it has been tinctured in a large sense by traditions of autocracy and the class distine- tions of aristocracy, or muddled by distorted notions due to a misconception of socialism. And this has led to the error of bellef that Americans are without devotion to anything beyond the merely material things of life. Justified or not by the acld test of scientific analysis, our institutions have sprung from a pure concept of freedom, have survived because of the patriotic devotion of our people, and have expanded because their fundamentals at least are correct, That statesman who fails to reckon with this quality of the American character®is leaving out of his ealculations the most impor- tant factor in the problem. Japan and America. Baron Ellchi Shibusawa, the great Japanese financier, who has but recently concluded a hasty trip to this country, where he held consultation with some of our money kings, has disclosed through a current magazine something of his purpose in coming to America. He proposes a union of Yankee dollars and Nipponese energy for the exploitation of China, Baron Shibusawa does not put his proposition quite so baldly, but that is the purport of his argument. He pre- sents the possibilities of the partnership so at- tractively as to'do credit to his admitted abllity as a promoter, and with an earnestness that leaves no doubt of his patriotic devotion to Japan, American leaders of finance are just now giving more attention to the needs of South America, where we are more immediately con- cerned than in Asia. Any of our nelghbors be- low the isthmus is closer to us in every way than those on the western shore of the Pacific. It may be that our resources will serve to finance the world operations that must be car- ried on, It is certain that the United States will be the one country after the war that can em- bark on any extensive program of foreign devel- opment, Therefore, Baron S8hibusawa's proposi- tions will be in time carefully considered, along with those of others who are now at or are com- ing to Columbia’s gate for help. Bringing & Prize Into Port, The exploit of the German prize crew (hal has just landed the British steamship Appam in an United States port is noteworthy as marking & new epoch in maritime annals, Naval annals glow with tales of how prize crews have worked vessels into port, the vanquished crew held be- low decks by show of force, the while the victors tolled to make their victory complete, In the present case this phase of the adventure is changed. It must have been clearly an example of obedlence to authority that rendered the cap- tives submissive, largest type, could scarcely spare enough men to overpower the crew of the liner, so the sur- render must have been complete, and the sub- mission carried out in all fairness. It is also a new evidence of the possibilities of modern warfare, and shows the German mind on research bent and not above experimenting even in a serious matter of actual war. Appam swings alongside the Eitel Friederich in the comfortable harbor at Newport News, it will present an inspiration to the sailor who hon- ors his calling. No more eloguent support to the position of the United States on the question of sinking enemy merchantmen by submarines could pos- sibly be afforded than is offered in this German achievement. All right, Mr. Ground Hog. We imagine you will be no more disappointed than the rest of us. Revival “of talk about that Onrdua Dodge street viaduct seems useful chiefly as exercise. Still no harm can come from talking about it. B “No time must be 10st,” says the president.

COUNCIL BLUFFS, Ia., Feb. 1.—To the Pditor of The Bee: It is not very often T undertake to write anything for publication, but under the circumstances I feel that a good word for Mr. Ford is due, even from the average citizen. Mr. Ford, while a poor guesser, had high ambitions and undoubtedly sincere alma in view. He missed the target of poace by a good many nautical miles, but brought down some fncts as trophies for the Americans to look at and consider. He very pointedly proved that all the countries bordering on the north side ‘were indeed chilly, and entirely destitute of warmth—that very important opening ‘wedge that paves the way for an under- taking of this kind. The surroundings seemed to sound the same sentimente wintry, cold, destitute of civility and for- getting for the time, at least, the good intentions of the callers. The countries visited brought vividly home to the heart of every Amerfcan citi- ®en & clearer conception of the effect of the war even upon neutrals. It shows the exceedingly bright and sunny spots America holds under the sun, only mak- ing the clouds over Europe the black and a land of thorns, cactus and desol tion, where the death damp pervades all, and there is no sound ‘of music, no joy, no fellowship and no enlightening philoso- phy. All is reversed and dismal. The Ford idea visibly reflected the sen- timents of tens of thousands in this coun- try, although it sounded the death knell of many high hopes. It brought many converts to the standard of “Peace with Justice,” and, lastly, it raised quite g dust that seemed to disturb the vision of the ‘'preparedness” crowd. Ultimately they will have to consult the common people for a remedy to let the blessed light shine in as in days gone by. D. R. O. An Appeal for Southern Whites. CAMP HILL, Ala., Jan. 31.—To the Bd- itor of The Bee: On behalf of the neg- lected white youth of the south, will you allow me to make an appeal? The South- ern Industrial Institute, which I founded nearly eighteen years ago, has a planta- tion of 400 acres in land and a plant worth about $80,000. I can no better fllustrate the work that we are doing than to re- late this incident: Just before Christmas a little boy dropped In upon us. He had no parents, no home, no clothes, and seemed to come from nowhere. He came, he said, cause “Mr. Bob" told him that I would not turn him away. His parents, he had been told, died when he was 8 weeks old, and he had spent part of his time in an orphans’ home and the rest in various places. He is a little blue-eyed boy about 15 or 16 years old, with no bad: habits, Camp Hill was already over-crowded and no means at hand for Jimmie. 1 decided to keep him over night and send him away In the morning. But when the morning came there were so many friends that had come to his rescue I could not send him away without rafsing an nsur- rection among our teachers. Jimmle's case is by no means isolated. For him we need $i0 for a scholarship and $15 for clothing. The great world war has seriously handicapped the donations for this instl- tution, and coupled with this is the un- certaln condition of the treasury of the | state, which owes us $6,00. The legisla- ture proposed & bond issue to take up some of the more pressing obligations of the state. At an election recently held throughout the commonwealth the meas- ure was voted down. This leaves the public schools in a very dire condition, and puts the hope of any immediate pay- ment to the Camp Hill school beyond the realm of possibilities. If the humble boys and girls of the state were to blame for these conditions I should not appeal for them. Nor if T did not feel that the very best way to change the troubled condi- tions of thi tate were to educate its country youth I should not appeal to the public. But the only permanent belp it Seems Lo me comes from the education of the class that I am now working with LYMAN WARD, Prineipal. Divine Law a Land Owalag. ST. MARY, Neb, Feb. 1.—To the Bditor of The Bee: I mote Mr. Hildebrand's re. cent letter, “Thoughts by the Wayside.” His idea of “bDack to the peaceful pur sult of agriculture to the life of happi- ness” is certainly complimentary, but, apparently, Mr. Hildebrand hes been reckoning without his host. Has he not overicoked the impracticability of “back to the farm™ as operated under our pres- ent system? He could mot have taken into consideration the fact that all the fertile land has drifted into the control of the men of wealth, If a man of mea- ger meqns wants to farm he cannot do 80 without the consent of the wealthy, and they will not consent unless he agrees to pay them such an enormous tribute for the privilege as rental that after having peid the same out of the proceeds of his year's labor there is not | enough remaining to provide a respect- able living. Mr. Hildebrand mentions $4 to $36 land | rentals, and appears to approve of it. 1 do net. says “thou shalt not loan thy money upon increase (interest), for he that tak eth more than he gave is a usurer, and & usurer cannot enter the kingdom of heaven.” What difference is there be- tween interest and rental? True, the are the same. Mr. Hildebrand deplores the method pursued of offering alluring inducements to join the army. Why are such induce- ments offered? Because the class that are eating their bread by the sweat of another’s brow are fearing the present progress of intelligence, and lest the peo- ple discover the Injustice of the present system under which they are laboring, and attempt to throw off the joke of op- pression it will be necessary to have a Divine law, which is supreme, | | methods employed differ, but the results | GRINS AND GROANS.
