THE CROOK BENT ON NINNING THWUE FOR OWN & NE MOMENT PLEASE — My ERATOR 1 ADJNST FILM CvewAy] All W The Balkans and This War Business pre fate of Europe now seems to rest largely in the hands of the little Balkan countries. Germany is continuing its successful advance into Russia. forces concentrated about it are said to be in grave dang« of annihilation or capture. . Such eventuality might have a decisive effect, but should the Russians, admitted masterly strategists in retreat, again withdraw their armies safely, the eyes of the world will be turned on the Balkans, for it will then be a race between.the warring countries for Constantinople. P On the West the battlin#@torces are deadlocked and promise to remain so, despite the allies’ present activity. The Austrian-Italian campaign has resolved itself likewise into a trench affair. Little effective result can be expected from the Italian offensive for many days. The German on- rush in the East will be, short of unexpected contingencies, fruitless of really decisive results. Germany, casting about desperately for a flaw in the Allies’ defense, threatens entry thru Switzer- land, but there she is met by the magnificent Swiss army of 200,000 or more men, and she hesitates to chance the hazard. All the nations are nearly bankrupt, a fact that may not be disguised much longer. In Constantinople panic reigns. The Turks are hopeless, yet battling magnificently, and apparently the allies are gaining ground, inch by inch only, and at a terrible price. ? Sooner or later, however, they must conquer unless Germany reinforces the Turks. To do that she must pass her troops thru the Balkans. That the German-Austrian war machine can crush Rumania, Servia and Greece, assuming Bulgaria's continued neutrality, is certain, but can she do so in time to beat the allies to Constantinople? To do so the Germans would be compelled to weaken their forces on the East, and Russia would be up and upon their backs again. The allies on the West and the Italians on the Austrian border would also drive in. Confronted by the united forces of the Balkan league, reinforced by an Italian army thru Greece, it would be a perilous undertaking. If it failed, it would mean final defeat surely. To reinforce the Turks, by passing their troops thru the Balkans unopposed, thus preserving their battle fronts, East and West, intact, would probably mean victory for the Germans. Truly the Balkans hold high cards at present. 4 How will they play them? Enforce Anti-Spit Law WHen one of the Seattle health inspectors recently arrested a man for spitting on the sidewalk, and he was haled before Judge Gordon and fined $2, it was generally treated rather facetiously. Yet the enforcement of the anti-spitting law is something that ought to be encouraged. Two important facts are now recognized in regard to tuberculosis. The first is that most persons carry some germs of disease with them. The second is that most cases of tuberculosis are not recognized until they are quite advanced. This means that thousands of persons who have no idea that they are tuberculous are probably spreading the disease. It means that almost any of us may have tubercle bacilli in our sputum without realizing that we are sick. The gist of all this is that spitting by presum- ably health people is not only a nauseous habit; but is a source of disease. Enforce the law against spitting. Arrest the man who spits on sidewalks and floors, no matter who he is. Make it uncomfortable for the spitter. * . * s 66 * * © * @ IT’S TAKING Dumba a long time to get his hat off the rack. o* © © @ & ONE-EIGHTH of Canada’s population has migrated from the United States since 1900 _* * *# @ & A BOY'S first smoke is about as enjoyable as a girl's first corset. ._* + © # # ; ago gad now admits he is shy of military genius in the present war.

But now | want to thank you for your splen- did editorial in Thursday's issue. In that you state that men over 40 years old, from now on, would be denied work from the city, thereby depriving many of them a chance to earn an honest living. My hus- band {s not a workingman, so I have no personal interest in the affair, but I consider it one \just, uncalled-for laws ever thought jout by @ party of men. Is such a measure approved by the taxpayers of this city? Since the appearance of the art!- cle in your paper, I have talked with several of my neighbors (all |taxpayers) in regard to it, and jall strongly oppose such a law. Shame, shame on the ones who ‘to believe that the people of Seattle jwill not stand quietly by and see jmen whose only fault is that they are over 40 years old 60 unjustly treated. A TAXPAYER.
