The German could no | longer escape the consequences of his | great defeat. He had to retreat to. escape disaster, and his retreat had necessarily to be accomplished under heavy pressure. He could not evade the watchful Foch; he had to pay a price for retirement; a price mea- sured on the British front by 30,000 prisoners and 250 guns in seven days more guns in the full period from 8 to Aug. 30. The start of the retreat was ren- dered inevitable when Byng began his thrust outward toward Bapaume, last week, although that thrust was not immediately successful in gain- ample by taking Roye. With Roye gone and Bapaume reached, the crum- July 1 to the end of the year in 1916, and they did not get either. But once Roye had gone, Chaulnes, Nesle, all the old French battlefields south of the Somme and.the British objectives north, in that terrible summer and autumn of 1916, were doomed and fell like ripe apples to the French and British. Retreat Bound to Continue. And at last the map shows the consequences. The seed was the success of Aug. 8, the harvest is the retreat now swinging backward and bound to continue, whatever the temporary halts, until the old Hin- denburg line is reached. We have liquidated all the gains of Luden- corff in his great offensives of the spring. We have disposed of one more German chance to win the war, the chance supplied by the col- lapse of Russia. The German had/| six weeks to win the war in the Marne campaign of 1914 before Rus- sia could intervene effectively, and he lost.

Retreat Reasonably Successful. It is emphatically not a time for extravagant expectations. On the whole, the German retreat is devel- with Boehn is paying a very high price indeed for getting Hutier’s army out of the mess, but he is getting it out. The capture of guns and material since Aug 8 which has been held has not been excessive. The retreat is by no means as successful as that from the Marne in 1914, or even the other retreat from the same river last July, but it is a retreat wnich reasonable success. ' ; ’ does not yet show any conclusive | evidence of degenerating into a wholesale rout, despite local break- downs at various points. If we are to smash the German this year completely or even decisive- ly, the smash must come the other side of the Hindenburg line, and un- til that smash begins to develop we are bound to look at affairs calmly. We have defeated the last and in many ways the most terrible German for a military decision, and to a long and costly retreat. We have taken 125,000 prisoners, 2000 guns and reconquered nearly 2000 square miles of French territory in less than six weeks. The only question now is, how much more can we do this year, before American strength is at its high water mark. The measure of this will be had when we reach the Hindenburg line. The German is going to have one more chance to save his bacon for the present year. It is a real chance, and it is a chance which we must clearly recognize. If he has organ- .ized behind the Boehn retreat and at the Hindenburg line sufficiently, there may be no subsequent retire- ment of the frontier before the end Personally, I believe that another retreat will take place, although it may be postponed tem- | porarily, but I am anxious to make it clear that the odds are against such a withdrawal at once because, for the German, it is a matter of life and death to avoid. If he fails in this struggle in the next fortnight he will | not only go to the Belgian frontier. but he will probably suffer a disaster in the retreat, which will serve to il- luminate the possibilities of the cam- paign of 1919 beyond mistake. We can afford to be patient now because we are sure of unqualified victory | logically to an inevitable conclusion, | ®V¢"tually; we can also in this spirit Some time within the next few days, | recognize that in addition to the cer- ' ; ' go to the ;open the probably by the end of the next | week, the German will be back at before him that system of intrench.- | ments he has been preparing in all tainties of next year there is a pos- sibility for this year, real, but re- 'the Hindenburg line; he will have | ™0te.

M. Landis here late yesterday. Ten-year sentences were imposed wpon 33 of the organization’s lead- ers, five-year sentences on. 33, one year and one day on 12 defendants, and 16-day sentences on two others. Cases against Benjamin Schraeger, Chicago writer, and Pietro Nigra, Spring Valley, Ill., were continued. All sentences on the four counts in the indictment will run concur- rently. Fines ranging from $20,000 on Haywood and his chief aids down to $5000 were imposed.

The street car men made their de- mand yesterday for 42 cents an hour for an 8-hour day. They new re- ceive 36 cents an hour. Waterworks employes several days ago threatened to strike. The Mayor then agreed to call an extra session of the Board of Aldermen to con- ‘sider their demands. The firemen, | oilers and boiler washers ask an in- e from $100 to $120 a month.

Tilden conclusively ‘and ably justi- fied the good opinion that most of the lawn tennis followers had of him. H.is strokes are not of the variety to ac- complish anything on wet turf witha sodden ball. He picked up his un- fin'shed match against Walter Merrill Hall at the point it was stopped at on Thursday by the rain. Hall led at | 6—3, 1—-6, 7—5, 3—2 on games, with | the points at deuce and Tilden serv- | ing.

Jap Too Fast for Veteran. Kumagae beat Beal C. Wright, the) former national champion and baer 1 nationalist, chiefly by the agility and staying powers of his legs. Except for | the legs Wright was the superior in | every way. Had he been equipped with a pair of legs 10 to 15 years younger there would scarcely have | been anything to say about the ea- counter as a competition. The wen- | der of tt all was that Wright was able | to fight out the battle to the limit of | the five sets. As someone remarke1 in the stand, he showed dauntless courage and perseverance of an ane Roman warrior. When Wright held the portals at | the net Kumagae was as impotent as a mosquito under an inverted tum- | bler. There are few men walking the earth who may defeat the Japanese | by swapping drives the length of the | court with him. Wright was not one of them and he went down to defeat | at 8—10, 6—3, 3—6, 6—1, 6—2. Any- way, the battle was a glorious one for a player who has not fought the. fight of a national champion for 10 years. It is not stretching the imagination | a hair's breadth to say that the crowd | that filled the stand was a- tingle | with exajtement and expectation | when Tilden and Hall came out to. finish their match. On every side the question was whispered: “Can Hall | turn the trick?” There was just brief moment in that unfinished cxauah ’ fourth set when the friends of Hall | terday, were aglow with confidence. Ba led Tilden at 5—3 on games, having brok- through the tremendous service national Clay Court champion on the eighth game by perfectly placed shots across court and down the sides.

STLOUIS POST-DISPATCH —$—$—$——— i — NS 000,000,000 TAX BILL IS COMPLETED — Measure to Be Reported to House. Wednesday and Voted on by Thursday—Is Nation’s Largest Credit. By the Associated Press. WASHINGTON, Aug. 000,000,000 war revenue bill, House Ways yesterday agreed to report the meas. ure to the House Monday. The bill probably will be taken up | in the House for consideration next Thursday, with prospects that it can) be disposed of within a week or 10 days. Treasury ¢«xperts have estimated, Chairman Kitchin stated, that the bill as finally agreed upon will pro- duce an annual revenue of between | $8,100,000,000 and $8,200,000,000, thus making the measure by far the greatest revenue-producing proposal | which Congress has ever been called “upon to enact. Features of Measure. The outstanding features of completed bill are: It does not impose consumption taxes or a higher tariff, as it resorted to unless all other means of raising the $8,000,000,000 should fail. If every person and every business concern in the States and every American portion of income of foreign corporations operating in the United States is reached by the provisions of the bil). Rates of existing tax laws in the main are doubled. A distinctly war profits tax, as an alternative to the excess profits tax, embodied in the rresent law is levied. The war profits tax is a flat 80 per cent of the net income above a specific exemption of $3000 and deduction of cent of invested capital war period. The war profits tax is not to ex: éeed 35 per cent in the case of cor- | of which porations invested capital, for the taxable year is not over 000 and 40 per cent maximum for concerns of $50,000 invested cap- ital, in order to protect srnall busi- ness. The war profits or excess profits are to be applied alternatively, ac- cording to which will produce the most revenue. The excess profits tax eet $25,- is 35 per cent of the net income up to. 15 per cent on invested capital, 50 rer cent for between 15 and 2¢ per cent on capital and net income exceeding such capital. luxury Taxes. For the first time a luxury ex- c‘se tax ranging from 10 per cent on straight luxuries to 20 per cent on amounts paid for a variety of ar- ticles in excess of specified prices is levied. All income statutes including a normal tax of 12 per cent and sur taxes running up to 65 per cent are codified under the present income tax laws. Individuals and partner- ships pay super taxes on their total annual profits up to the present top rates of 60 per cent. Corporations only pay the normal tax and stock- holders pay the super taxes out of the dividends. Corporations escape the super tax on 662-3 of annual profits which are retained in the business. Under the normal corpor- ation income tax of 18 per cent in 20 per cent on the pending bill, with a rebate of six) per cent for distributing its profits, a corporation would pay 6 per cent more normal tax on this 66 2-3 of profits retained in the business. The bill retains the present income provisions as for payment of the tax at the source, exempts the first $1000 of annual income of single provisions or of married persons not living with their husband or wife and the first) $2000 of the annual income of mar- ried persons and embodies most of the provisions of the present income tax law. An advisory tax board of five members at $9000 cach, to advise as to interpretations and administration of internal revenue laws ‘s created. ne ‘DON’ CAMERON, U.

ST.LOUIS POST-DISPATCH ee eee = CARDINAL MERCIER, THE G of its many | to Bow to German Will in Face of Great Personal Danger. HAD asked that there be ro man- | ifestation in America’s honor that New Year’s day, for, since assem- blages were forbidden, it could only result in embarrassment for the of- ficials of Brussels and difficulties for the people; the Belgiums had under- stood instantly and the word had gone out over the city that the demonstra- tion before the legation was not to take place. And then a strange thing hap- pened. In the morning, there, before the door of the legatfon, were two or three officers of the Brussels police in their blue uniforms, smart kepis, great blue capes, white gloves, their straight swords. And there on a ta- ble in the hall was a blank book, bound handsomely in morocco, lying open at the first of its white pages, with the inscription, ‘1 Janvier, 1915."" When I asked Gustave about it he smiled and shook his head help- lessly; and when I went out for a walk the agents de police merely | raised their white gloved hands in salute. And then, all day long, the pveople penning in sorrow, but in the lofty courage of an indomitable will, a pastoral letter to his. bruised and scattered and tortured flock. It was) that great Prince of the Church, the power and clarity of whose intel- lect, like the rigid austerity of his al- | most monastic life, recalled the early fathers of Christianity—Desire | James, Cardinal Mercier, Archbish- op of Malines. He was proud of be- ing a Walloon; he had been born in 'Braine l’Alleud there near the field of Waterloo in 1851; he had been) educated at Louvain in the same uni- mien to history, and now he was the primate of Belgium. break of the war to render the kst he had returned to Belgium by Pope; to find his land laid waste see city in ruins and the roof of his own palace open to the sky. and early winter he-had been quiet- came quietly down the rue de Treves, in pairs or in little groups, a constant procession: those of the Quartier Teopold were in formal dress, frock coats and high hats; the others were ‘endimanche” (in Sunday clothes), wearing little American flags as bou- tonnieres, some of them buttons with portraits of the President or his Min- ister at Brussels. They came, signed their names in the book, left their ecards, and went away, lifting their high hats without a word. Those that had not time to sign left their eards;.the little latch in the street coor was clicking all day long. Cards by the Thousands. There were all sorts of cards, the engraved cards of Princes and no- blemen, names of old families; there were cards of trades people and even bits of cardboard on which laun- dresses had traced their names. And on the cards were wriiten all sorts of | sentiments, the formal ‘'P. F.’’—pour feliciter (to wish you happiness)— expressions of gratitude in all possi- ble ways; now and then, in some honest workman’s hand, in Flemish, the simple, touching word ‘Dank,”’ (Thanks). All day long the silent procession streamed by, all day long the latch in the street door clicked, and by night the book was filled with names and there were whole baskets full of cards, literally thousands of them. Where were letters, too, and flow- ers, great bouquets and baskets that filled the whole Legation, turning it into a bower of roses and of those lovely orchids of which Belgium is so prodigious. Late in the night they were still coming, the latch was still clicking, the cards were still falling through that slit in the outer door—- a beautiful.expression of the grati- tude of a whole city, a whole nation, for what America had tried to do “or them in their distress. There were many callers, too. All afternoon the drawing rooms were filled, all the Americans in town and many English and many Belgians be- sides, with, of course, Villalobar and the secretaries. of the legation and the other Ministers left in Brussels. In the midst of the reception a footman brought up the card of a German officer! I went downstairs and there was a pale little officer in full uniform—-sword and helmet. He came to tell me that his wife wished to help to re-establish the lace in- dustry in Belgium; that she would open a shop or a depot, buy the lace from the Belgians and send the lace to America, and he wished me to have the tariff taken off the lace! I could tell him as an old and though somewhat disillusioned if not dis- couraged free-trader, that the Amer- ican Congress would hardly go as far as he wished in aiding his in- dustry, however tender its infancy. I went back upstairs and the Bel- gians had all fled as from a pesti- lence; not one was left, and Villa- lobar, standing there with that hu-/| whose life was passed in obscure toil |J¥®* morous expression of his, heaved a | heavy sigh and said: “We are saved.” Belgium’s Great Cardinal. That New Year's Day, so full of meaning for us at the Lezation be- cause of the outpouring of a nation’s | heart in gratitude, had the curious) amelioration everywhere that high | days and holidays bring to men. In. those currents of feeling that so mysteriously make themselves felt in |inal, whole populations, there was some- [people yet above them, thing like a breath of new vital air. because it was a new year; there was a new hope, a sensation of relief that an old and evil year was dead. That amazing phenomenon, which found ita springs in the deep wells of the Belgian nature, that everlasting and never tiring resiliency, lifted them up and they felt that better times were ahead; with the spring the allies would advance, the Germans would go, the war would end. The feeling pervaded all classes. And then an event occurred that gent a thrill of patriotism pulsing through every heart an event that was the expression of a single great man, one of those rare and preemi- ment personalities, those moral he- roes shat somehow miraculously ap- | pear upon the earth in times of great stress and trial, and sum up and express their people and their times. Belgium, for so small a na- tion, was rich in two such treanscen- Gent characters; King Albert was one, at that moment on the flooded reaches of the Yser, the symbol of his own people's force and resist- ance; and now, suddenly, a second was revealed who resumed in his @reat character the moral courage aa | @nd resistance of his race. _ On Christmas day he had sat in @ustere study in the gray old ec- atic palace in Malines, its @ fallen in from the shells that 6 red upon it during the fierce \give the common 4... ‘they are like him, him hopes because ‘ly visiting the devastated pastures of his flock. I had not seen him at that time; it was not until weeks after that New Year’s day that I had the privilege of making his acquaintance, and the ultimate honor of among my friends. He came in the) simplicity that was so implicit an) element of his greatness, ruary morning, to express his grati- tude for what America had done for his nation, and to give me an auto- graphed copy of the Pastoral, which at that moment had somehow got out of Belgium and gone around the world and made him famous, He entered, advanced, tall and strong and spare, in the long black soutane with the red piping and the sash, not with the stately, measured pace that one associates with the) red hat, but with long, quick strides, | kicking out with impatience’ the skirt of his soutane before him as versity that had given Father Da- that the Cardinal had been arrested. | Tire news spread through Brussels | pastured only He was called to Rome at the out- | 0” 4 Monday x to homages to the late Pius X and ‘on the first Sunday in January, and participate in the election of the new | the , is ength, its dauntless courage, its se- | ’ a mater destroyed, his. str ’ sword, his alm pee a torts And/| patriotism, and yet it counseled pa-_ during the months of that autumn) tience and even obedience to the au- _thorities. plain that the authorities then in the | claiming him | one Feb-| ifirst ‘mot as yet bcen thought from the twinkle in his eyes | | | t and most tomete victims, the superiority of uivral ‘cal force.

The last four months seem to have been a century. “By thousands our brave ones— -have been slaughtered; wives and | mothers weep for the absent they. will never see again; homes are) _broken up; misery is spreading and. he walked, as though it impeded his | movements. He was impressive in. his great height and he bent slightly | forward with an effect of swooping. on, like an avenging justice. But his | hand was outheld and in his mobile | countenance and was a smile, kindly eyes there | as of sweetness and) light, that illumined the long, lean | visage.

His hands were large ful and of the weathered aspect of his face. It was a countenance fuli of serene light with little of the typ- icall’’ ecclesiastical about it—a high brow, a long nose, isan cheeks, strong jaw and a large inobile mouth, humorous and sensitive, the mouth of the orator, but with thin lips that could close in impenetrable twinkled with a lively intelligeice and evident humor. Perhaps I could do no better seme impression of him than to say that, had it not been for _ those touches of red in his black garb, he would have recalled some tall, zaunt. simple, affectionate Irish priest among the poor, amid lowly lives, in humble honies, whose every 2a.e and preoccupation he knew and sympathized with, going about night alone in all weather, unspar- ing of himself, visitins the the imprisoned, forgetting to eat, ac- customed to long, weary vigils, and he an independence that needed none ?’ the reliances or approvals of this pebiong There was something primal, orig- | of the |'® about him, a man out one of those personalities who hope because and yet create in aspirations and higheft rare and lofty new may become if only he devotion, by abne- ‘by sacrifice and by love.

His Powerful Personality. Ultimate history, written at that hour when mankind shall have emerged out of the darkness and savagery of these times into the light of those better days that must come if there is any meaning or or- der in the untverse, will celebrate the astonishing coincidence that, in the little nation which the most ruthless power of all times chose as the red | ‘\Stlerent, | Schaffen, Molenstede, found a pair of common | I have not yet had time to visit. i 'Budingen, |_Mousty, aux-Bois, in all purely per- | to | ‘Bueken, in the effort to give | at | sick and) | they demonstrate in! their sufficient selves what. a com- ‘mon man have the will by gation, little | things shrivel up and wondered why small annoyances should fret ritate; of the. schools, ‘Entire villages have practically dis- and power- ; ‘disappeared; silence.

I hear again the plain- voice of an old man whom I asked if mass had been celebrated in his dismantled church the past Sun- day. “Tt is now two months since we have had a priest,’ said he.

It intensified and stif- fened that mora! resistance which on the part of the Belgians had never waned or slackened. During that discussion between the Cardinal and Baron von der Lancken “Is it true that you have been ar- rested and are now a prisoner?” To this telegram the Cardinal pre- pared a reply, saying: “Some of my priests have been ar- rested because of the letter I wrote; others have been menaced with threats of prison and deportation to Germany, while others have been fined.

Dorothy Dalton, in “Green Eyes,” a Paramount-Ince production, will be the star feature at the West End Lyric for the week beginning tomor- row. The story deals with a man who marries a girl much younger than himself and who becomes insanely jealous of his pretty wife. They quarrel, with the result that the wife leaves him, but after a brief separa- tion, she returns to her husband and a reconcilation follows. But the hus- band soon becomes jealous of . his younger brother, who has made the young wife his confidant. Subsequently, the younger brother thrashes a scoundrel who is there- after strangled by a revengeful ne- gro. Stumbling over the body a few hours later, the young man rushes to his sister-in-law and while he is telling her the story of his supposed crime, the husband appears and places the worst possible construction upon the incident. To shield the boy, the wife tells her husband that she has invited him to her room, whereupon the husband attempts to slay himself. The wife tre young brother confesses the crime to save her honor, news comes that the murderer has confessed. The young brother is exonerated and the hus- band and wife reconciled.

This question was put to Albert. ' Parker, one of the best-known mov- ing pictufe directors in the country, who said that 75 per cent of the sue’ cessful photoplays we see on screen were originally novels or short stories in popular ’ One publishing house alone that is- sues five monthly magazines is said to contribute to the photoplay, an average of 100 successful plot-bases a year. Mr. Parker said that in the Pathe organization several highly trained readers are employed to do . nothing else but carefully read all the fiction magazines as they appear. This necessitates reading more than 300 stories a month. Perhaps out of the whole 300 there may be as ~ many as three stories that are finally passed and judged to be worthy of scenarioizing. These stories are handed to the scenario writers and turned into moving picture plays, but after ali this trouble, perhaps not one of the three will be acceptable to the pro- duction experts.

No citizen needs to be reminded of what Amer- ican big business in combination is capable. At home and unregulated, combinations were entirely too successful in creatine market conditions fa- vorable to themselves, for they became oppressive to the «onsumer. Properly supervised they can be of benefit to foreign buyers as well as to do- mestic capital and labor.

Don’t it make you just waht to do something more to help them? Maybe you might give your play over again, and I do wish I could be there to see it. Don’t let this be the last time you send in money, for I am sure your fathers and mothers and their friends will want to help some more. I just thought of this: I am going to enclose four pl«dge cards, one for each: of you to get filled out by someone who really loves to help poor children who have nothing at all to eat except what the good people in America buy for them. You see, nobody over there will help them, for the. want them all to starve, but we, over here in America, where God has been so good to us, are not going to let them starve. That’s why we are working day and night to see that lots of money is sent to buy them bread. When I think of them I just wish I was, Oh, so rich, that I could send enough for them all. And I am sure you all feel the same way. “LUETTA H. KENNEY, Sec.” A Dangerous Crossing. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I ask you to help the people who have to cross Lindell and Vanderventer avenues every morning and evening. The automo- biles race on Lindell at the rate of thirty and forty miles. During the rush hours, morning and evening, it is pitiful to see people, going and returning from work, who have to lose time standing huddled on the sidewalk, waiting for the racing auto- mobiles to rush by. The pedestrian has much right to cross the street without dan- ger to life and limb as the autoist has to race wildly past. I live near the corner of Lindell and Vandeventer and have to turn away from the window for fear of seeing someone killed. The other day an old lady barely missed an auto and was terribly shaken. The women drivers are worse than the men. Nobody honks, but they simply race ‘all the time. Could we not have a traffic policeman ‘stationed upon this terribly dangerous cor- ner? The tired business people surely ought to be able to cross Lindell in safety and not be scared out of their senses morn- ing and evening. LINDELL. Marine Corps Recruiting. ' Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. - So many erroneous impressions exist as to the nature of the Marine Corps and to the present status of recruiting for this branch of the service, that we take this op- portunity to explain both subjects. The Marine Corps is independent both .of the army and the navy and operates on ’ Jand, sea and in the air. It operates under ’ @ special charter issued by Congress at the time of the Revolutionary War and as such is the oldest fighting organization in Amer- wil] be one of the world’s pressing needs. We shall neglect opportunities of the greatest magni- tude if we supply this need in unmanufactured or only partially manufactured form. We should supply it in forms ready for ultimate use or con- sumption. Among all other assets of value in the building up of an unprecedented foreign trade, of course, none will be of greater help than our possession of ships. We shall have so many ships that the problem will be to find ports enough to estab- | lish lucrative trade routes for them in foreign parts. With shipmasters eager for cargoes to carry to out-of-the-way as well as more frequent- ed ports and proper organization at home, the period of enormous expansion in our domestic trade will be succeeded by a historic period of ex- pansion in our world trade. a LL. a a A FARM HELP FOR MISSOURI. It was stated recently that, in spite of the draft having taken about 25,000 farmers and farm hands in [llinois, that State, due to the good work of the State Labor Bureau and other organizations, the Defense Society is informed, is not suffering enforcement of nation-wide sumptuary laws is a heavy burden and offers innumerable temptations to official corruption. Only concentrated spirits of high intoxicating quality can be manufactured and distributed easily. The liquor made and sold in violation of prohibitive laws or made in the homes will be of the worst quality and effect. And we may find some of the conditions so bit- terly condemned by Thomas Jefferson when whisky was the only intoxicating beverage ob- tainable in the country. Commending a plan to establish a brewery in Virginia, he said: “I wish to see this beverage become common, instead of the whisky which kills one-third of our citizens and ruins their families.” We think the American people would be wise to retain the light wines and beers as a substitute for whisky and brandy and thus, while satisfy- ing those who rebel against prohibition, encour- age true temperance. We are inclined to believe that in the reaction which will inevitably come from the intolerable conditions of bone-dry pro- hibition, the American people will come to this sensible, human and democratic view of the ques- tion. There will be a reaction. When the red rage of the people against saloon evils is satisfied and when the liquor interests have been eliminated, the principle of liberty will rise again. It will be supported by a great mass of men whose minds have been confused by the evils of a bad; back as April, and Director Gale has made fre- system, but who cherish the principles of liberty quent appeals for volunteers, but the demand is | and recognize human conditions.

The draft is also taking thousands from Mis- souri farms, but the outlook for satisfactory farm workers to take their places is not so good as in Illinois. The movement just begun by I. ‘J. Gale, farm help director of the Farm Help Volunteers, to organize a number of boys from the cities, to be trained in camps and to be sent to work on nearby farms, has the appearance of a forlorn hope. The Farm Help Volunteers were organized as far ica. Under a peculiar international law it is the only force in the world that can land | troops on foreign soil without a state of war existing. — Beside occupying part of the line in France, the Marine Corps has guard details on all of the insular possessions, at all | + Navy yards and powder depots and at many important munitions plants. It is prepared to suppress a rebellion in San Domingo, repulse Mexican invaders, man the second- ary batteries aboard ship or to reconnoiter in the air. The Marine Corps is now accepting and . @Xamining applicants but will not send men to camp until authority to do so is receivea from Washington. This is expected shortly. They must register if within the age and are amendable to selective service regula- tions. MARINE CORPS RECRUITING OFFICE, St. Louis, Mo. ; Negro Women as War Nurses. Te the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I noticed in Sunday's edition of your valuable paper two articles on the above subject, one from “P. D.” and the other from the “Mother of a Negro Soldier,” and I fully agree with them both, that the’ Government should recruit negro women to nurse the negro soldiers in France, if they are willing to serve their country and ‘“mthelr race as nurses. There are and will be many negro sol- diers fighting for their country and to de- prive the negro women of her privilege of nursing their sick and wounded is not right and I hope steps will be taken at once to show the negroes that their services are. ap : W.

The term ‘‘Teufel-Hunden’’ as used in the Marine Corps poster is obviously a grammatical error, for a nominative case the nominative ‘‘Teufel- Hunde’’ should be used, according to the following declension: Nom.

Written for the POST-DISPATCH by Clark McAdams NOT ACCORDING TO BERNHARDI. GERMAN Major in the Medical Corps, taken prisoner, was asked by someone whether he thought the Americans were good soldiers. **I don’t know,’’ he replied. ‘‘I saw only one dur- ing the battle, and he was most unsoldierlike. I was in a dugout with 40 men when the bombardment started. After the firing stopped I came up to the entrance. ‘*‘An American soldier was standing there. He did not look military at all. His steel helmet was on the back of his head. He didn’t have any coat on. Even his shirt front was unbuttoned. He had a grenade in either hand. When ‘he saw me he whirled around and said: ** “Come out of that hole, you dirty Dutch pretzel, or I’ll spill a whole basketful of these things down into your cellar!’ ‘*It was most unsoldierlike.’’ = = ma HENRYETTA, | OKLA. To the Editor of Just-a-Minute: **Henryetta,’’ Okla., feels keenly the same brand of mortification suffered by ‘‘Muscle Shoals,’’ Ala. at the hands of ruthless spellers. Just as the average person naturally supposes that ‘‘Muscle Shoals’’ should be spelled ‘‘Mussel Shoals’’ so does the same average person jump at the conclusion that ‘‘Henry- etta’’ must be spelled ‘‘Henrietta.’’ If yok don’t believe it, ask the copy-readers who change it every time they see it spelled correctly. There is a little story behind ‘‘Henryetta,’’ too, as there is behind ‘Muscle Shoals.’’ Sam Allender frequently relates it. The Frisco years ago, so the story goes, wanted some land owned by an Indian by the name of Henry Something on which to erect a station. One of the considerations of the deal was that the railroad com- pany would name the station in honor of the land owner. Henry was not selfish. He stiggested that his wife be permitted to share the honor. Her name was Etta. So the station was called ‘‘Henryetta.’’ When the town ‘‘grew up’’ the name was not changed.

Such a battle subdivided itself into phases, preliminary operations, pauses, peace storms, and the like. The advantage was, of course, obvious. As against an impatient public clamoring for the knock-out blow, it could be dem- onstrated that such a battle was very hard to win. As against a public un- easy under defeat, as the German peo- ple is today, it can be argued that the battle is far from lost. That is just what the military commentators are tell- ing the German public today. Foch has really suffered a strategic defeat because he has failed in his object—which was presumably to smash the German line and capture a million Germans, with La- dendorff and the Crown Prince. But the Allies have not accepted the German- “battle.” They admitted last spring that they “had lost battles, but insisted that they had not lost the war. They are only claiming today that they have won battles, but that it will be some time before. they expect to win the war. Of this opinion, as against the German journalists; seems to be the Prussian War Minister, Von Stein, when he admits that the Germans have experienced “set- backs” and suffered a “defeat.” Singing Soldiers. MAJ. DONALD GUTHRIE tn the September Scribner. A MARCHING battalion, songless, ig a quite unusual thing. Bands, brass and pipe, play the regiments up very close to the line, where they stack their instruments and become stretcher-bear- ers. In the British army officers are spe- cifically instructed to encourage their men to whistle and sing; and this is generally done. A songless battalion can't fight fiercely. Nor is the object of this military instruction entirely one of reaction. It is true that the reaction of singing upon the men is quite marked, and of real from the fighting standpoint. “The Penny Whustle o’ Sandy McGraw” gine of indirect warfare.

Mr. Smith’s smile had been rather forced, and his face was still some- what red as he picked his way through the crowded rooms to the place where he could see Frank Blaisdeil standing alone, surveying the scene, his hands in his pockets. ‘Well, Mr. Smith, this is some show, ain't it?’’ greeted the grocer as Mr. Smith approachec. “It certainly is.”’ “Gee.

And I can eat all the cookies here I want to, and come in even if my shoes are muddy, and bring the boys in, too.’’ “It certainly is—great,’’ agreed Mr. Smith, his admiring eyes sweep- ing the room again. O Mr. Smith it was like coming 7 into another world.

Mr. Smith laughed heartily, but | the other looked still more discom-_ fited. | “I’m afraid Benny is—is telling tales out of school,” he murmured. “Well, 't is out of school, ain’t it?” | maintained Benny. ‘Say, Mr. Smith, did yer have ter go ter a private. school when you were a little boy?

Come, suppose we show Mr. Smith some of the new books.” From case to case, then they went, the host eagerly displaying and ex-| plaining, the guest almost as eagerly watching and listening. And in the kindling eye and reverent fingers of the man handling the volumes, Mr. Smith caught some inkling of what those books meant to Jim Blaisdell. | (Copyriant, 1918. by Eleanor H.

It is going to make the world not only safe for democracy, but safe for women. It is blotting out the sex line that separates the masculine sheep from the feminige goats, and en, but by human beings. “It is amusing to think how all the ancient superstitions about women have shrivelled up and perished in the glare of battle. Formerly one of the arguments against giving women the suffrage was that they couldn’t bear arms or do anything to defend their country in time of warfare. Nobody has the nerve to advance that theory now, with women crowding the munition factories, making high explosives, and doing the delicate work on airplanes, and with Red Cross nurses, women ambulance drivers and canteen workers going calmly about their business with shrapnel fall- ing about them, “And nobody trots out the old bugaboo about woman getting out of her sacred sphere in these times, when women are being employed to do every possible variety of work from digging coal to unloading cars and raising crops. “But it isn’t what women have done or are doing in the way of war work—it is what they are going to do fin the future that piques my curi- osity and makes me wish that I was going to be there to see what effect the great war will really have on molding the destiny of the coming woman. “To begin with, there are hun- dreds of thousands of women to whom the war has brought the first touch of real life they have ever knowa. For the first time in all their pampered existence they have made sacrifices; for the first time they have heard the call of duty, for the first time their minds and hearts have been inspired by a worth-while aim. “They have been butterflies, flit- ting about in the sunshine from flower to flower, with no thought except for their own pleasure, In their war work these women have literally found their souls.

The world will need all the ‘skiliful workers it can get to offset the ecs- nomic waste of war. “Will not the war also change our ideas concerning women’s status in the household?
