AR as a movie picture thriller for the diversion of a) complacent, well-fed American public is rapidly developing | into a clore-up of grim realities that even a Government's effort to camouflage casualty lists cannot hide. It is a good time to) stop fooling ourselves and take cognizance of conditions as they are! and not as we would like to believe them to be. : For example there is this Russian mess, where our high motives of humanitarian policy have repeatedly stranded in quicksands of rottenness and treachery. Whatever the blunders of German diplomacy in dealing with western nations in early years of the war, it has been amazingly euc- cessful in handling the fanatics of Russia. No scheming autocracy could have found more accommodating pawns than the Lenine- Trotzky gang have proved to be in the Berlin game. Russia is no longer an ally of America, England and France. She is now a vassal of Germany and a contributor of supplies to the hard pressed, starving Central Powers. Germany is already in possession of Odessa and tho richest food producing sections of Russia, The Kaiser can take Petrograd when-| ever he wants it. He could easily drive the Reds and all their ilk out of Moscow, but they are too useful tools in this new drive to the East. Setting these deluded fanatics up as stool pigeons to draw sym- pathy of the Allies while German and Austrian legions scour the vast country is a wonderful game of Teutonic craftiness, It is repetition on a vast scale of that early day treachery in the trenches when German soldiers held up their hands and cried “Kam- ally, eager and willing to help, the one has been tried and found wanting; the other is etill untried. When a man is held up by bandits or ia floundering in the sea he is not apt to be over-particular about the nationality or morals of the person who comes to his rescue Mr. Balfour, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Great Britain, ex- presses perfect confidence in Japan as a friend in need to help head off Teutonic triumph in Russia and the Kast. In Japan when they trust a friend they give him a sword. Have we handed the sword to Japan? immediate value is the opening up of food reservoirs that will enable the Central Empires to prolong the war indefinitely.
