According to reports from Salem, Governor Witliycombe
threatens to veto the good roads bill if it is passed including a
clause for doubling the present automobile license fees, regardless
of the fact that this increased revenue is to be applied on the
roads. His claim is that half the automobiles are owned by farm
ers and that this proposed increase of the license tax would be an
injustice to them. Those who know the governor do not hesitate
to say that the real reason of his assuming such an altitude is that
he is playing for the farmer vote at next year's elections. That
no matter how important a matter is to the state at large, even
though it be of the magnitude of a good roads system, playing
pontics lanes precedence over it, so Jar as me governor is. con

Jt is said that the (lernian:: eclare they will blockade the
Panama ('anal by submarine activity in that vicinity in case of,
war with the United States. J I' s.ich an assertion was made it was
another idle boast, since they have I ailed to accomplish anything
of the kind at the Suez ('anal. I' tnama is I.OOU miles farther
away from (iermany than .Suez is from the Austrian ports, and
the United States has a number f Avar craft ready to pick oil' any
submarines that mav appear in I hat vicinity. I!y comparison it
would be worth 100 times as much to the (Jerman powers to gain
control of the Suez (.'anal, or stop vessels from passing through,
as it would be to prevent the us'i ( f the I'anama Canal. Suez is
the direct Mnglish route to and I rem India, China and Australia,
and many thousands of soldiers aid immense quantities of sup
plies are being regularly transpi rt d by that route.
By indignities thrust upon tl e American minister, Urand
Whitlock, at Brussels, the deni al: oll'icials seem to be trying
either to force this country into nr, or foolishly imagine that the
Americans are cowards and will 1 ot light. Possibly they think
we have no fighting equipment wherewith to inflict any injury
upon the German forces. If so, ,h y are mightily mistaken. This
country is 100 times better equ'pied than it was 2'j years ago
for the manufacture ol' arms, an m.iuition, explosives, aeroplanes,
etc., and we have an inexhaustible supply of materials within our
own borders. It is historical thai file United States never goes to
war except as the very last res ir:, but the world has no better
fighters than the American sol lit rs and sailors. If war must
come, on account of the overthrow of American rights, Germany
will soon find that they have to n :;et an adversary of enormous
power and one which has no four of the ultimate outcome.
According to the view of Charles I'Mward Russell, the widely
known publicist, newspaper con e; pondent and magazine writer,
Germany wants the United States
and will never rest until it gets ti
ever notice that one significant plir
people of Germany are sulfering :

is starving. The thing I vcnliiivi
when I was abroad studying th.'s
pass. The German people were ,'h

thing, and that is the bump.
"The clever men that steer Germany's course see the bump
close at hand. They had rather iie licked by the whole world than
be licked by the entente. They aiv going to save their faces and
try to save the dynasty by com clling the United States to come
in. It is impossible to translate th-so notes in any other way. To
talk about starving Kngland with a submarine blockade is to talk
in one's sleep. You miirht as we' I try to blockade it with row
boats. Twenty times all the sulin :irines that Germany ever had
could not starve Kngland. Kveiy man in Germany that is not a
lunatic must know this perfectly well. 'Kuthlessness' as practiced
by submarines may sihk a lot of ships, drown many crews and
kill many noncombataiit passengers. It will not end the war nor
shorten it. This is a cinch. Nothing then can come of this move
except to compel the United Slat' s to add itself to Germany's ene
mies. hereupon the German y; i eminent can surrender without
disgrace or dishonor at home. It could then exclaim: 'We beat
the entente to a fra..le, but we couldn't beat the whole world, of
course.' Besides all which, when it comes to the terms of peace,
Germany will fare much better with the United States silting at
the board. We have no Kuropojiii grudges.
"American ships are going to oe .sunk, American lives will be
lost, legitimate Anu'rican trade 'i be destroyed. Xo amount ol
pacific desires will enable ns to :.idestep these things.
"The administration will make no hasty move. But let it be
slower than the Supreme Court end more deliberate that the
statue of Buddha, il will come at last to the place where it must
strike.
"Within three weeks we may be in the row, sword in hand,
or placed plainly in all men's iew. And if we go in we shall end
the war. We need lake no stock in the idea that there is nothine
m do. We can do a lot. We are not vet a nation of foohle-
brates. We hae Mill physical and intellectual
have soniehing else. Wo are the world's itm-

as always, that politics has first place.
