What can we do next that will sound well in Berlin? Whatever the railroad brotherhoods may promise in case of war | ion at this moment in threatening to paralyze) their deliberate ac transportation and thereby embarrass the nation in its preparations for defense can be called by but one name. The railroad employees are entitled to state and urge their claims. But they are neither starving nor oppressed. They can offer no ex- cuse for menacing the country with a general strike just now, save tle they want. The Supreme Court has not yet reached a decision on the Kight Hour Law. No further legislation is possible until Congress con-| venes next month, War may come. So the railroad brotherhoods pusit forward with demands and threats, taking advantage of a national, crisis to further their special interests. | Do they call it patriotism? Whether loyal or disloyal in case of war, any organization of | American labor that chooses ‘h aw time as this to try menacing or disruptive tactics, thereby interfering with the nation’s de- fense plans, casting doubt upon natio nity and inviting the Imperial German Government to regard this country as too full | of domestic trouble and dissension to be dangerous, is guilty of | uothing short of treason. ————— We wonder whether Mr, Gerard's conversation with (he Pre dent to-day will not somehow leak into history. BACK IT UP WITH THE NAVY. OMPLETE mobilization of the American *Navy must logically follow the formal notice given by the United States Govern- ment to foreign governments Marcel That “the Government of the United States has determined to place upon all American merchant vessels sailing through the batred areas an armed guard for the protection of the vessels and the lives of the persons on board,” certainly does not mean that the Govern- ment of the United States is prepared to go no further. ‘To arm merchant ships, direct the gunners to fire if need be and then send them across the Atlantic with nothing but wishes for good | luck would be a singular policy for this nation to adopt. With every! armed merchant ship must go the implied guarantee that if its guns are not enough the full strength of the American Navy is massed) n6 World Daily Magazine vincin Beni Con ‘The Pree Publishing 6, (The New York Evaning Word.)

There cannot be much doubt in anybody’s mind that unless Gor-! many decides to modify her submarine methods encounters between armed merchantmen and U boats are sure to lead sooner or later to the actual convoying of American merchant vessels by American warships. Under such circumstances naval collisions on a larger scale are a! certainty and armed neutrality will have transformed itself into war. ' Miss Henrita F. H.
