Not War of Retaliation.
Some impetuous persons are urging on prepa
ration! for war, asserting the need of retaliatory
measures against the enemy. These are mistaken
in their motives; however natural the impulse
when smarting under a sense of injury, to seek
vengeance, the United States is not in this war
to punish anybody. No scream of wrath is heard
from the American eagle; our provocation has
been strong and our anger is deep, but it is right
eous, and it is justice and not revenge we look to
establish. Wrongs to humanity may be righted,
without inflicting grievous wrongs on the doer.
Murderous attacks by land or sea will be brought
to an end and safety of public and private life
will be made secure as far as possible, without
thought of vengeance. We fight for freedom, not
only for ourselves, but for the world, and this
surely includes the German people, to the great
issue does not involve nor could it succeed if it
did look to revenge for anything that has taken
place in the course of the conflict. Retaliation
is not an item in the program laid out for Amer
icana in the great task they voluntarily have as
sumed.
The National Park Service
By Frederic J. Haskin
Washington, June 22. The national parks of
mc unitca ataies nave now Been co-ordinated
and placed under a special government service
with a director in Washington, in much the same
way that the national forests are controlled by
mc turcac service.
Properly to protect and conserve the national
parks means to save from destruction and ex
ploitation for all time certain of the most beauti
ful and wonderful parts of the west to save them
just as they were when the first daring Americans
pusnea into tne ttockies, wnen Fremont iound the
way across the divide and Kit Carsnn tnnnnl
from Taos to California and from Canada to
Mexico. It also means making these wonder-
regions accessible to all Americans on equal
terms.

Railroads and the Inland Waterways.
Announcement by the railroad managers that
they are willing to co-operate in any way to re-
itore to usefulness as adjunct! to transportation
the inland waterways of the country is significant
of an awakening in this great industry. The
greatest obstacle in the way of utilizing the
streams of the United States in transportation has
come from the railway! themselves. If the mag.
nates art aincere in their present professions, and
we have no good reason to question that they
are, it means much for the future development of
the country. A very large percentage of the traf.
fie now borne by rail, and the carrying of which
has brought about the aerioua eongeation of the
lines, with it! consequent delay! and hardships,
properly should be water-borne. Under proper
condition! bulky material! that now clog the
track! could easily be carried the greater part of
their journey on bargea instead of cars.
Restoration of waterway usage, however, is
not a matter to be immediately accomplished, for
too much needs to be done before the neglected
rlvera can be restored to their full possibilities of
use as i factor in the transportation aervice of the
country. Some partial relief ia possible imme
diately, although facilities are quite limited, but
development of a comprehensive plan for the
whole country will require considerable time. Ail
the debate and agitation of year! should now
converge to the focal point of how to really use
the atreama.
It ii to the future more than to the nresent we
must look in thii regard, for the new era will
make luch demand! upon our energies aa will

AII the city dwellers of the world who have
money are willing to spend it for fresh air and
scenery. Canada realized long ago that there
was easy money in this eterna hankenncr of man
to get back to the hills. She began advertising
her Rocky mountains, which are in no way su
perior to our own. Now the Canadian Rnrlties
are almost as well known as the Swiss Alps, and
the tourist business is said to rank fourth among
the Canadian industries. . But that is not the
worst of it. About 70 ner cent nf the SI 50 Win IKVl

for a long time. Congress would now and again
pass a bill settinsr aside such and aiieh areas aa

through because they did not call for the ex-

ended over to the lecretary of the interior to
look after. Later on, when all the world began

When the Germans Find Out
'. La Is Glses Paaaacrat
Colonel Lee Meriwether, a well known St.
Louisan, but now returned from service on a mi!
sion abroad, confirms a general impression of the
deception of the German people touching the
status and prospects of the war. He was in Eu
rope a year, but his most vivid impressions of
the extent of such deception! were received at
Havre, which he visited in the course of his work,

that the fleets of Germany swept the seas and

Aboard ship, coming bsck, was an American
clergyman who had for nine yean been the pastor
jt an Episcopal congregation at Dresden. Read
ing only the German newspapers, subject to gov
ernment censorship within any limitations the
government might impose, and which has no
doubt rigorously excluded all foreign newspapers
from the mails, this unsophisticated servant of
the Lord waa also fully convinced that the Ger
man navy bad aunk the entire British navy off
Jutland, that German submarines are wiping all
British, French and neutral commerce off the face
of the deep, and that there could be no doubt of
ultimate, and early, German victory in the' war.
Such conditions aa theae prove what an un
limited, irresponsible and arbitrary censorship in
time of war can do among a highly literate and
intelligent people.
