Cooling Off a Little in Europe.
Close observers think they may now detect
some little Indications that the warring nations
of Europe are approarhlng the time when they
v ill be giving more heed to reason and less to
passion. The bitterness of the conflict seems to
be subsiding in some measure, and the Intense
devotion to the notion of crushing the enemy
Is slacking a little. Terms on which to base
peace, broached by unofficial persons, are not at
all likely to be as yet seriously considered, but
that such proposals may be made Is at least to
be taken as showing the set of the wind. This
does not neroaaarily mean that the end is near
at hand, but when rancor gives way to sober re
flection, the heat of battle must be cooling. The
temperature-reducing process seems to have set
In, but It will take a long time to lower the
thermometer reading to a point where It may
le said the fever has disappeared. The en
couraging fart at present Is that the heat Is not
rising, and may even be diminishing.

Alone, and Tet for All.
From Washington comes the word that the
t nlted States has declined to Join with Sweden
in Joint representations to Great Britain In the
matter of neutral trade. Several times In the
last few months It has been urged that all the
fietitrals, the United' States leading, unite in
some action of protest against the course of the
(elligerents, the advocates of this plan insisting
that it would give much weight to the proceed
ing. This country has prudently and consist
ently declined to entangle its case with that of
my other nation. The Interests of each of the
neutrals, so far as overseas trade is concerned,
are largely Identical; none of them can suffer
much In this connection because of the lnde
lendent action of the United States in dealing
v-ith either of the offending powers. On the
other hand, to Join with any oountry might sub
ject the United States to the suspicion of favor
ing one more than another. If the point con
tended for by this country is gained, all neutral
nations will share in the outcome.
For the National Defense.
Somewhere between the declaration of Mr.
Br)an that an array of a million men can be
raised between sunrise and sunset, and the
equally sweeping assertion by Major General
Leonard M. Wood that the volunteer army is a
failure, will be found the medium that truly ex
presses the need of the United States In the mat
ter of national defense. One difficulty encoun
tered in approaching the topic is the extreme
range between the claims of the two groups that
are Just now stirring up the country with their
'damor. One aide Insists that the United States
ir. as defenseless as an oyster without a shell,
the other that we are In no danger of attack,
and, therefore, require no special defensive
preparation.
The United States undeniably Is not so well
prepared to enter on a great war as anyof the
Kuropean nations at present involved In armed
strife, nor Is It likely we ever will be. It is not
desirable nor expedient that we "keep prepared
to call Into the field trained and equipped sol
diers by the million on a moment's notice. Our
defensive armament, so far as baa been made,
I: first-class. Our professional soldiers are as
capable as any in the world, and oor general
staff has not neglected its most Important duty,
that of studying the methods of meeting any
possible attack. Thus, the United States has
the nucleus at least of national defense. As to
the volunteer army, with all due respect to the
opinion of so eminent authority as General
Wood (himself a volunteer), it has not failed.
In our few wars volunteers have been found in
plenty, and as a supplement to the regular estab
lishment have provided sufficient force to
achieve whatever was required.
A program for national defense is being
worked out by the army and navy experts, and
will be presented to congress at Its coming ses
sion, which will be entitled to receive our seri
ous consideration, but we will always have with
us the professional fighting man and the opti
mistic peacemaker, neither of whom will ever
be entirety satisfied with what Is done.
Their Team Work ia Poor.
One champion of the proposed new fir
la mi system wants It because the downtown
bmdnews district needs more protection! an
other says it Is necessary because In the outly
ing portions of -the recently annexed districts
telephone service is not sufficient. A third says
it will reduce insurance rates by one-third at
least, while a fourth says It may bring rates
down as much as 10 per cent These boosters
for the system ought to Improve their team
ork. In the meantime, no one has pointed out
where the fire loss In Omaha has been seriously
augmented by reason of delay in transmitting
alarms. Neither has any pledge been riven by
the Insurance companies that any reduction In
rutes will be made if the new system Is Installed.
Why do not the promoters- get down to bust
rens and make the city some specific pledges.

Printers sat down squarely on the proposi

tion grind, and until that natural desire ia
curbed conventions will go to the cities offering
the most attractive Inducements and the grind
will remain with the officers ss a reward for

with the national secretary of one of tha great farm
era' organixntlon. ha told ma that his society owned
more than B.tr0 grain elevators, organised and oper
ated on the mutual, co-operative plan, atretchlng from
tha Great Lakes to the Paiilfc coast. Through the
medium of co-operative dairies the atate of Wisconsin
haa become the leading dairy state of the union, and
each year ships out of it borders IIOi.iioO.OOO worth
of dairy product In the fruit dlatrlcts scattered oyer
many states, the producer have co-operative assoda
tlons which handle the selling end of their business.
In the citrus districts of California and Florida the
fruit la handled by these co-operative associations.
These are only a few examples which indicate the
growth of the idea of applying tha fundamental Idea
of democracy, the equal rights of each and alt to the
business affalra of 'America. y
It Is a fact which la hard to explain, that while
the Idea of co-operation in bualnraa affalra is being
most cordially received and la having its greatest
growth among the farmers of America, the bulldlnK
association, which la the expression of co-operation in
financial affalra. haa had its almoat exclusive growt'i
in the towna and cities of America.
in recent years the merits of these co-operative
financial Institution are attracting the attention of
tha farmer. In the communities wherv this Is being
done, building asolcat!on are rapidly becoming the
atrongest institutions operating there, having greater
aasets and transacting a greater volume of business
than the capitalised institutions with wnlch they ara
ill-rounded.
What ia the field of operation which these associa
tions may occupyT As stated before, tha chief aetlvl
tlea of these associations have, thus far been In the
tine of assisting town and city working-man to save
their money and provide homes for their families.
Very little of their business haa thua far reached the
fanners of America or those living In rural communl
tlea. Thla has no dpubt been largely due to tha fact
that building associations originated among city work
Ingmen and Its progress and development haa always
been In the direction of such changes and alterations
In the plan as will make It most accurately fit Itself
to the needs and condition of lta membership. As a
tesulf, many of the feature of these Institutions,
which are In fact mere unimportant details of organi
sation and of plan and method, have come to aasume
In the popular mind the weight and Importance ot
vital, necearary features. For example: In the popular
mind, the Idea of a building association loan la one
where tha borrower pays of his debt by amall pay
ments made weekly or monthly. Since tha businesi
of the ordinary farmer doea not enable Mm to meet
theae weekly or monthly payments, therefore the
building association cannot be adapted to tha handling
of farmer loans. Now, the error in thla statement is
in the assumption that weekly or monthly payments
Is a vital feature of tha building association plan. A
mora accurate statement of the building association
plan of loan Is that It la a plan by which the borrower
Is enabled to pay off hie loan by making periodical
payments of a aum sufficient to cover accrued In
terest and an amortlratton payment on his loan. The
length of 'period between the payments la not a Vital
feature of the plan, but should In every association
which deal re to do the greatest poaalble good in Ita
community and serve tha greatest number of peopf
and In every loan made by auch an association, be so
fixed and adjusted aa to fit th needs and clrcum.
atancea of the Individual borrower. If he is a factory
employe or engaged In any occupation receiving a
weekly wage, fix kia payments on the weekly plan;
if hla wage Is received monthly, make his payments
coincide with h PV day. On the other hand. In the
ceae of a farmer, you can give him a loan contract
In which hla paymenta fall due aeml-annually, which1
will exactly fit his needs and his Income, and will
violate no fixed principle of the building association
Plan.
' My plea la to widen the field ot building association
activities. Not by going into the forbidden neias cr
speculation or unsafe Investment, but to retain and
keep ever In. mind the motto of tha Building Associa
tion Jxaguea of America, "Tha American Home, the
Bafesuard of American Liberties." Borne Duiiaing
association men mm to Interpret that motto to be
restricted to the town home or the city noma, io my
mind, however, it la troad enough In lta language and
wide enough In Ita application to embrace every home
fireside In all th land, whether in tbe crowded city
or the buay village, or amid the quiet acres of the
oountry farm. By widening the building association
plan o as to adapt It to the needs ot American farm
era you at once open your door to admit on equal
term th greateat source of wealth in America, Last
year' th piodnce ot American farma aggregated
tl,no,000.0on. All the revenuea of all tha railroad
were a me-e bagatella to the vaat reaourcea of Ameri
can farmers. And yet while th farmers have such
vaat wealth, they are In the woret financial condition
as a claaa of any to be found in America. Why la
this? Simply for th reaaon that they have not yet
learned tha art of co-operation, of combination, vt
team work. In handling their monej. The building
association la the mltthty. eucceasful example ot tha
very leeeon they should learn. f

OMAHA. Aug. H.-TO the Editor of
The Bee: I doubt If half the people in the
United States know the difference be
tween a marine and a bluejacket. The
newspapers are partly to blame because
they constantly rpeak of sailor a
marine. A marine ia not a sailor, even
if he does serve on board ship. He Is
a member of the United Plates marine
corps. Marine are to be found on
dreadnoughts, battleship and armored
cruiser only. There are between fifty
elx and seventy-two marine on all ships
of these three classes while the num
ber of bluejackets range between 7M0
and 1,000 on each vessel. The marines
do not take part in the work assigned
to the sailor.' They are on board to
keep order. They are often called the
"policemen" of the ehlp.
Pallors look down upon the marlnea
and often tlmca will have nothing to
do with them.
I hope thla little criticism will be of

OMAHA, Aug. 14. To the Editor of
The Bee: I see the argument between
Mr. Whltnell of the fire department and
Mr. Kiiget of the police department over
the proposed expenditure of about 1120.000
for a new fire alarm system. The way
I see It Mr. Kugel la not butting into
Mr. Whitnell'a business, but as he has
a vote on the question I think Mr. With-
nel should state clearly the advantages '
of tha system and show absolutely thit
it will reduce the cost of our fire In
surance and not make It a personal la
sue. Mr? Whltnell seems to try to dodge
the question by saying how Mr. Kugel'a
department la run and slurring him be
cause he wants to understand why it
would not be better to put on more
motor equipment ao that all the outlying
districts "will have better fire protection
as be thlnka the telephone alarm aystem
is very good for the present.
Now I would like to see Mr. Whltnell
show Mr. Kugel where the system is all
right Instead of making a personal argu
ment out of It. JOHN A. HOOT,

NORTH LOUP, Neb., Aug. 15,-To the
Editor of The Bee: A dispatch from
Copenhagen says:
England ia not ao busy now making
the much-needed guna, aa it la In the
turning out of machinery with which the
guna must later be manufactureed. It
will be aome time before the war fac
tories are properly equipped to begin re
lieving the gun atringency at the front.
From the above, the American people
should see why the Germane are about
a thousand city blocks ahead of the Eng
lish in war equipment War equipment la
very almllar to woman's fashions. A new
suit In 115 will not do for 191. From
one to alx months changes the faahlons.
Suppose the milliners would make up
enough bats tor ten years In advance,
what would tha atock be worth? Nothing,
is the answer. Buppoae congress appro
priate IGOO.OOO.OOO to make war equipment
to laat ten years, what will it be worth
within three years? Nothing, Is tha an
swer.
The United States should have a couple
of factories equipped at a coat ot
1100,000,000 for making war equipment.
Those factories should be able to turn
out fifty submsrneMoata within , three
month's time. An experimental depart
ment ahould try out every available Im
provement in war equipment. That would
cost fcS.000,000 annually. In that depart
ment a corps of experts ahould be main
tained. When I aay experta, I mean a
claaa ot men who have ahown mechanclal
genius. Buppoae the entire expense of the
expert be S1.B00 each, on an average, an
nually; 10,000 of them could be Paid for
on an annual expenditure of $15,O0O.0uO
tha coat of a battleship. Any real genius
can succeed on 11,500 a year; a politician
cannot do that. This country can never
be efficiently protected under present
method. Too much Wall treet In every
thing and. that ia what trouble Eng
land. The War and Navy departments
ahould also have a roll ot lOO.OuO practical
