MONDAY, Jl'LV 0, 11)17. HUM 'K Al l Sii i EKMA X V. A real blockade of Germany has begun at IuhI. The Iron ring arounu the central powem is being closed. Th work beu-un and carried on by Great Britain, France and Russia with but partial success Is being com pleted by the United StatcB. It Is well known that British sea Kwer lias not availed to prevent Germany from linportaing huge mianiilioB of foodstuffs and war ma terials from Holland, Switzerland and the Scandinavian countries. It is largely through the food thus ob tained that she has been able to hold out bo long. All her little, neutral neighbors have taken advantage ol their situation to Import more food than they needed and Bell their sur plus to Germany. The Unllod Stales Is now almost tho sole hope of hu rope's food supply. We can keep the countries in question from feed ing Germany by selling them mere ly as much food as they need for thomselves. And this our govern mcnt is golwr to do hereafter, through tho exercise of powers con ferred on the president by a recent act of congress. Tho thing is fairly simple. The enterprise looks Innocent enough on the fuce of It. An "export council" has been formed, under the presi dent's direction, which is going to "direct" all exports of foodstuffs and war materials. There is nothing ex plicitly said nhout an embargo. But an embargo it Is, Just the Bame. And It will soon he drawn so tight that there will be little leakage Into Germany. The neutrals Involved will have no reasonable ground of com plaint. Thus the German government, by driving us Into war against our will, subjects the German nation quirk!)' to the greatest peril it has yet faced. Food, skilled observers say, will probably decide this war. If German harvests are a failure this year, and ff our food embargo works as well as It should, we shall have contributed greatly toward shortening the war. It may seem cruel. It Is. But Germany has brought It on herself. The war she began Is infinitely cruel. Her ruthless methods have steadily added to Its cruelly. It is merciful to end It, even by using hunger as a weapon. ' In one respect it Is true, as Ger man Junkers charge, that America Is going to war to protect Its Invest ments. It has some hundred odd years of effort Invested In the ruupe of human freedom and that invost-1 nient It must protect. l.ots of iib have hooks on our shelves that would be doing more useful service In providing reading matter for the soldiers. It appear that tho American troops who go to Franco will have a tremendously high reputation to llvo tip to. It may ho necessary for congress to control tho food, but every man enn paBS his own appetite control bill. It wns n great liallan that Hist dis covered America. And by and hy all the rest of them finally discovered It. German submarine his us below tho belt, but the Yankee blockade hits Germany Inside the belt. Then, ajuin, paying Tor llhc-ity bonds will keep one from consider able mischievous expenditures. Returns From Vacation. City Recorder 11. L.
