ECOGNIZING that it has brought about a state of war, the! Imperial German Government feels it time for hosttle acts) against the United States to increase in flagrancy. The sinking of the American steamer Healdton without warning and with the loss of at least seven American lives means that Ger- man submarines now attack American yeasela whenever and wherever they find them. The Healdton was carrying a cargo of petroleum to a neutral country. It was torpedoed, according to the reports, in a zone which | the Imperial German Government had itself designated as safe, Acts of this sort are now to be expected. It would be foolis! | any longer to discuss them as outrages. Murder has become war, We have to deal with war and we will denl with it, please God, in « manner worthy of the Republic whose destinies are involved. ——_-+ + AS THE BALANCE HANGS. : Tits is the reassurance of incontrovertible fact in the declara-, tion of the new French Ministry. Victory for the Allies, M. Ribot and his colleagues point) out to the French nation, depends solely upon “the energy we apply | to assembling our resources, and upon our concerted effort in util iving them.” “Our armies, united with those of our allies, are superior to those of our enemies, The material resources of which we were in cruel want at the beginning of the war are now such as permit us to fight on equal terms as long as may be necessary.” ¥ % . “The retirement of the Germans on the French front 1s without doubt a prelude to other battles in which the enemy will exhaust his last resources.’ | Even to a cold, impartial observer the situation in Europe is) bound to appear steadily less favorable to the Central Powers, The| | epring of 1917 finds Prussianism and all it stands for more than ever unmistak@bly defeated by the magnitude of what it has failed to accomplish. | Germany entered upon this conflict near the top-notch of her boasted military power. She quickly reached her climax, She has been descending ever since. The Allies began in state of unbe- lievable weakness. Their strength has steadily increased, was never) greater than it is to-day and gives no sign of having reached its} maximum. In view of its utter failure to accomplish under favorable cir-| cumstances results upon which it depended to justify its existence, the plight of Prussianism, now that its foes have grown strong enough to deal with it, is desperate. | The superior material forces of war are against it, the moral judgment of the civilized world is against it, the progress of peoples, the enlargement of human aims and ideals are irresistibly against it. Only a little more concerted effort on the part of all democratic rations lined up together is needed to assure its final collapse NEW YORK NEEDS A STATE POLIGE., EW YORK cannot afford to be cheated of the benefits of the N State Police bill, which squeezed through the Senate with 60 «mall a majority that its fate in the Assembly becomes a matter of serious question. | “A majority of citizens of this State long ago became convinced | they need a State constabulary not only for the surer punishment and prevention of crime in thinly settled sections, but also for the better handling of strikes and disorder in more populous districts. The many arguments in favor of using State police rather thon militia in time of peace are doubly reinforced if the country goes t» In the latter case there will be need for all the police protec- that tion and safeguarding State can provide, The public believed that this time its State police force was a certainty.
