WHA T R USSIA WANTS IS
A MA TTER OF OPINION
.....—4
From the New York World,
The trouble with the resolution now pending in the United States
Senate providing for intervention in Russia is that its preamble is
either untrue or misleading. It says that the Russian people want to
establish a republican form of government and are in sympathy with
the cause of the United States and the allies, whereas most of the
known facts are to the contrary.
Nearly everything done and said in Russia since its armies were
disbanded indicates that the United States and the allies are in
greater disfavor there than Germany. Now, as always heretofore, the
class conscious revolutionary socialism of Karl Marx has found in a
democracy of order and justice more to hate and fear than in Prus
sian militarism, which has given the boislievists a free hand in one
quarter while it gorged itself in another.
There is a'sincere desire in the western world to help Russia, but
how is Russia to be helped if it is hostile to those who would go to its
rescue, and who is to say that the poison of Marxism which has
produced the soviet delirium is not as active among the masses who
applaud the soviets? The American commission headed by Elihu
Root made the painful discovery, long before Russia weut wholly
mad, that assistance from anybody except the apostles of classism,
anarchy, confiscation and x’epudiation was not welcome.
President Wilson is informed as to this situation, and no doubt
that is why he is in no haste to act. To restore Russia to independence
and open the way for a constitutional democracy would be a noble
task, but xuxtil the fever of Marxism has run its course there is grave
danger that an invasion would strengthen the hold of the Lenines
and Trotzkys upon the country, or throw the greater part of it into
open alliance with Germany.
English Team in World Series
Is Possible Result of War
By United Press.
London, June 26.—World's Series—
1922—London Teafigliters vs. Comis
key’s White Sox.
It reads like a pipe-dream, but four
years ago this war would have sound
ed like a message from the padded
cell. So, strange things may happen
in the next four years.
For instance, John Bull may have
a ball club playing for tlio world's
championship.
John is really taking an interest in
the grandolgame this year, learning all
there is to be known about it, for the
first time since Wallie Skinclothes
leaned his knotted war club against
a falling persimmon, thus inventing the
pastime, back in the days when high
society revels were staged in tlie tree
tops.
Eight American and Canadian ball
clubs are this season’s missionaries,
playing a full schedule as the Anglo
American league. Charity gets the im
mediate money proceeds but the peo
ple promoting this circuit have the
ultimate aim of bringing England and
America closer together.
Of course this object hac been sought
many times before. There have been
highbrow essays, summer tours for
rural school mar’ms and outward offi
cial handclasps -for years and years.
Sons and daughters of the idle rich
have done their bit by playing inter
national polo matches and racing their
little yachts across the Atlantic for
Tommy Lipton’s solid silver growler.
And up to the time we came into the
war the average Englishman and the
average Yank understood each other
like you understand a Chinese laun
dry ticket.
baseball’s big success this year look*
like the real cure for the International
coolness that has puzzled Anglo
American well wishers since the days
of fifty-four-forty-or-fight.
They like our slang over here, they
like our movies, our jazz time songs
and even iho ‘ Ejigllsh” styles for men's
clothes, fresh from the sweatshops of
the U. S. A.
Eight thousand people, half of them
Englishmen, clapped their hands and
sheered with singular lack of restraint
as Admiral Sims stepped into the box
at Highbury football grounds, Eondon,
May 18, and opened the Anglo-Ameri
can league season by pitching the first
ball to Maj. Gen. Biddle, commanding
American soldiers in England.
From that moment, through 11
wrangle some innings, they heard hun
dreds of brass-throated douglibles and
Jacks unrave! a vocal program that
brought back memories of the Polo
grounds when Tinker and Evers and
Chance'' were earning Charlie Mur
phy’s biggest dividends.
English people can't resist comparing
baseball to cricket any more than
Americans over here can resist com
paring shillings to dollars. Cricket
really means more than a game. When
an Englishman wants to say another
fellow is absolutely square ho Just
says, “He plays cricket.”
With cricket in his system our Eng
lish friend thinks baseball a dull gamo

| Back Up Slav States. j
From the New Republic.
If then, as everyone must now agree, it is vital to the allied ca^se
to wrest the Slavic nations, of central Europe from German control
and to keep them free from German influence after the war, it is
obviously necessary to set up an adequate international defense for
them. This means that the first step toward the definite breakup of
Austria-Hungary must be the establishment of a league of nations.
It is not worth while to call Czecho-Slovalda and Jugo-Slavia into
existence, to succumb shortly to German imperialistic enterprise. But
no one would deny that it is worth while to call them into existence
as free members of a great wrorld league pledged to defend them
against foreign aggression. - The league is necessary to their existenee.
And the league in its turn would gain in its power of coercing the only
nation likely in the next decades to seek to disturb the peace—
Germany—if it commanded the resources of two vigorous Slavic
states in the heart of Europe.
Were it announced to the world that the allied states had joined
in a league of defense, to which all nations desirous of living in peace
might become parties, and that the league recognized the indepen
deuc of the two Slavic states of Austria-Hungary, the prospects of
conclusive allied success would at once become brighter. Every
Czecho-Slovak and Jugo-Slav in Austria’s armies would know that in
fighting on the side of the central powers he was helping to defeat,
not a shadowy hope of a nominal independence, but a binding promise
of real independence, supported by the whole resources of the league.
The hundreds of thousands of Czecho-Slovaks and Jugo-Slavs in
America, now technically classified as enemy aliens and kept out of
the war, would be given an opportunity to show in what esteem they
held the independence of their native lands. The Austrian Slavs are
among the world’s most resolute fighting men, when they have a
cause to fight for. We can give them a cause that would make fight
ing men even out of a race of cravens.
Security and Oil Stocks.
From Financial World.
Already many schemers are figuring how
they may employ Liberty bonds and War
Savings certificates as a vehicle to help
them sell their securities. One striking
example coming to our attention is ar.
offer made b^ th« fb-cnl »ron_t of Mm Se-.
$urit£ ^efroteum ’Sew i ork,
Leonard A. Hughes, who, with the use of
War Savings certificates contends he is
offering investors an oil stock out of
which all risk has been completely elimi
nated. He agrees for each $100 investors
lend-4.0 the company to secure each in
vestor with $100 of War Savings certifi
cates costing $83. In other words what
Mr. Hughes really does is to sell an in
vestor 100 shares of stock in the Security
Petroleum company for $17. the differ
ence. and if the company fails to fulfill
the confidence Mr. Hughes has in it of
becoming a big profit earner, the investor
eventually will lose this email sum. As*
the investor can b\jy War Savings certifi
cates at the same price Mr. Hughes pays,
there is no particular advantage in the
purchase through him. But when Mr.
Hughes contends that the riak hi entirely
eliminated from the purchase of stodk in
his oil company he is not exactly staling!
the fact, for $17 out of each $luO is and'
will be in jeopardy until fhe company be
comes a dividend payer, for yfolch we
have as security only the hopes of thel
projectors of the enterprise.
Princeton Military School.
From the New York World.
Princeton university is to become a;
military school. A three-year course of
training approved by the general staff
of tlie army will be inaugurated, and
every student will bo under strict military
discipline, eating and sleeping lu barrack*
instead of the dormitories.
After the first y^ar of training, which
wlli be obligatoYy upon all freshmen, It
wil] be optlontU with the men whether
tuey dcs£re to continue or to go Into th6
fouf-ycajp course. . •*,
The mlllfd?y f*is so arranged that
a freshman autering college at tlie normal
age will have completed It and become
eligible for his degree by the time ho
reaches draft ago.
The war department sometime ago made
it posibte for any college having a reserve
officers' training corps to adopt the sys
tem to go into effect at Frlneeton. Yale,
Amherst and other Institutions are under

“Them Damned German*.”
From the Kansas City Star.
At a railroad statlun lu Kansas a /young
Mennonite got on the train. The tears
were running down Ida cheeks as he eat
down next to a traveler who inqtflyetl
what the trouble w.13. The stety name

Give him a gun arid let him get ovefc’ to
France and he'd pay "them damned Ger
mans’' for what they nad done to dad's
80 acres.
There was no blame for the government
or the selective draft. Instinctively the
young naan had put the responsibility pre
cisely where it belonged.

A Great Responsibility.
■THE responsibility attached to the preparing of a remedy for infants and children
is undoubtedly greater than that imposed upon the manufacturer of remedies
for adults whose system is sufficiently strong to counteract, for a time at least, any
injurious drug.) It is well to observe that Castoria is prepared today, as it has been
for the past 40 years, under the personal supervision of Mr. Chas. H. Fletcher.
What have makers of imitations and substitutes at stake ? What are their
responsibilities ?j|To whom are they answerable? ? They spring up today, scatter
their nefarious wares broadcast, and disappear tomorrow. £
Could each mother see the painstaking care with which the^prescription for
Fletcher’js Castoria is prepared! could they read the innumerable testimonials from
grateful mothers, they would never listen to the subtle pleadings and false arguments
of those who would o£fer_an Jmitation.of, or substitute for-the tried and true
Fletcher’s Castoria."
