THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, A Deadly Combination. combination of the unprotected railroad crossing { and the inexperienced automobile driver. How to divide the blame is not an easy question. It is certain that some portion of it rests on each factor in the problem. Men who are not thor- oughly well equipped to handle seli-propelled and start carcering over the country, usually at a much higher rate of speed than they would take if they were better versed in the management of their machines. When the crisis comes they are unable to control the car, lose their heads, or blunder in some way that brings calamity. On the other side, the railroads have been so used to sending their fast trains at high speed across the country, with no care whatever for highway cross- ings beyond the posting of signboards, that they have lost sight of the fact that some further de- gree of responsibility rests on them, that they should be required to make the crossings safe at all times, The dissolution of the deadly combi- nation of inexperienced driver and unprotected road crossing depends on precautionary action on both sides. The driver must learn to proceed carefully, and the railroads must guard their crossings more closely. Roumania Enters the War, The declaration of war on Austria-Hungary by Roumania, while not an unexpected move, is one of considerable significance. From the first it has been understood that all the Balkan countries would be involved in the conflict, and the fact that Germany held Russia’s activity in forming the Balkan coalition to be one of the causes leading up to the break, has been con- sidered reason for thinking that when Roumania did enter, it would be against the Teutonic allies. Bulgaria's action made this course for Roumania almost certain, the time to be determined by the progress of the war. Roumania will not add greatly to the numerical strength of the armies in the field, but its frontier will afford a new line along which Russian troops can operate against Austria as well as to facilitate the attack on Bulgaria. This increases the prob- lem of defense for the central powers by just that much. That Germany has failed to consider this element of its great undertaking is not possible. The advantage to the Entente Allies is that men who are required to hold back invaders from the Roumanian front will be taken from other battle lines, where the Teutonic hosts are now being sorely pressed. This is the military aspect of Roumania’s action. Politically, the move is more significant. It is simply stated by Premier Jonescu as due to the “national instinct,” which means that Roumania covets and probably has been promised a con- siderable area now under government of Austria. Here is one nation, at least, that makes no pre- tense to service to humanity, to establishing lib- erty, or anything of that sort. It is frankly after more territory to govern, Greece is no longer being consulted by either side. Division of sentiment and authority be- tween the king and the leaders of a great political faction has culminated in such violation of Grecian neutrality by both sides as practically de- stroys its standing as a nation. Events may force the Greeks to declare war on one side or the other, but such advantage as Roumania may gain will be denied the Hellenes, who have held off too long in making their bargain. Whether the newer moves will have any effect in hastening peace can not be said, but it is cer- tain that the problem of the diplomats in the way of map-making after the war have been furtker complicated. o Annthcr_l—mpomm Mobilization, - In these days of world-wide military activity, it requires troop movement on a plane of national scope to attract more than a momentary notice, but a body now mobilized at Kansas City deserves and will get attention beyond that accorded even an army. It is made up of men whose fighting days are over, whose work is done, and vho are only waiting the call. Half a century ago they were young and vigorous, full of the life of sturdy youth, and then they were called on to perform duty of the highest. How well they fulfilled the call, how completely they perfected their work, is written in the growth of the nation. And now they can look back from the summit of life's hill, and see a wonderful magnificence along the way they opered to human progress. The Grand Army of the Republic will expire by limitation in time, but while civilization endure, ity achieve- ment will keep bright the honor of the “Boys of 6" A Great Leader Gone. A great churchman and civic leader passed to the final accounting with the death of Rt Rev. John Lancaster Spalding, former bishop of the Catholic diocese of Peoria, Ill. Springing from an American family with a heritage of 250 years, Bishop Spalding possessed a breadth of view as broad and deep as human liberity, and his sym- pathies matched it. To great scholarship and rare oratorical ability he added administrative skill, which found abundant room for demonstration in his own diocese and beyond. He visioned ma- terial results as clearly as he blazed the way to the life beyond. As he saw things he did things, and lived to see the full fruitage of his work, ma- terially as well as spiritually, Nebraska is his debtor in some measure. Bishop Spalding was one of the four churchmen associated with the late Bishop O'Connor of Omaha in founding and financing the American Catholic Colonization so- ciety of thirty years ago. One of the colonies was established in Greeley county, and the suc- cess which attended it became an inspiration for beautiful garden spot. The city of Spalding was named in his honor, But his greatest memorial rests in the hearts of the families drawn from crowded cities to the fruitful virgin soil of Greeley county, Nebraska. S—— From the summit of financial and political power in San Francisco to a bankruptcy court in New York spans the amazing slide of Pat Cal- houn in five short years. Traction magnate and civic boss, the carthquake shook his grip and political grafters shook him down.

Omaha, Aug. 26.—To the Editor of The Bee: Discussing possible devel- | opments in the rallroad strike situa- | tion, I recently have heard property owners express the wish that Presi- dent Wilson, in case the railroad owners permit a strike, would take forcible possession of the cars and tracks for the public good in the States army threatened to appropri- ate the anthracite coal fields. Let me say that this program is safety last, not safety first, and that its advocates are anarchists and bear no relation whatever to socialists, who believe in the public acquiring the railroads and all other public utilities in a lawful and orderly way. A suffering public has no more right to take forcible possession of private property than a suffering individual has, If a public neglects its own business and squanders its own estate, why should it not pay the same penalty which it compels an individual under the same circum- stances to pay’ WILLIS HUDSPLTH. Credit to the Audubons. Omaha, Neb., Aug. 27.—To the Edi- tor of The Bee: As a member of the Nebraska Audubon society I wish to thank you and your newspaper for | your feature story of this S8unday on the evidences of Omaha's progress in the study of humanity to birds and beasts. Having attended the first meeting of | the Audubons when they opened their 1915-1916 season about a year ago with ten members and knowing that by their own diligent and untiring ef- forts they now have over 200 mem- bers and a goodly cash balance in bank for more constructive field work in the coming season, I would point out to you a slight error in that | worthy story mentioned above. It was the Nebraska Audubon soci- ety, alded by The Omaha Bee and the other newspapers of this city, that started the campaign for the conser- vation and better understanding of oird life here. Your Sunday story, and 1 repeat that it is a dandy, says that Miss Hel- en Thompson, supervisor of manual training in the public schools, set the boys to making bird houses, which were later placed in the parks, and that “the Nebraska Audubon society became imbued with this movement and the members spread the gospe! of bird study. Miss Thompson is a valued and vig- orous member of the Audubons and 1 am sure, as a fellow member, that | she will agree that it was the Audu- bons and the Omaha press which started the movement among the chil- dren, as well as the grownups—and should be given full credit therefor. A yet more vigorous campaign is being planned by the Audubons for the coming season, in which we hope The Omaha Bee will continue to lend a hand, as in the past.

It was a deadly blow, aimocd at the heart of Ireland, and if it does not prove fatal, it will not be Wond- ] row Wilson's fault. ““Wilson's officlals obtained the in- formation by an act of lawlessness— a violation of international law— committed with the deliberaie pur- pose of helping England, it was promptly placed at the posal ot the English government, whose serv- ant Woodrow Wilson is.
