MFJCACF TO C1V1I. IZATIOX. Congress has finally pusscd the $( 10,000,000 jippi-oj tiiit ion Id . lirovKiinif for an immense ainilane siiiiadron ol Si.WM ma chines, and fur training 100,000 im-ti for thi'ir maintenance and operation. Evidently preparing to offset this, the press dispatches state that the Ctrmaii.s have erased the manufacture of the un wieldy Z-pprlins and are devoting their em -lyies to a ynul in crease in their airplane fleet. Also concurrently with the con scrintion of a big new armv in this country comes the amiuunce- tnent that the Teutonic powers are pr. 'paring si new army of 000.000 men mostlv hovs under 'JO years of age to he ready for service about next March. That is about the time they estimate the Americans will !) i n arriving at the European battle front; in large force. This is concrete evidence of the powerful fighting strength which is back ol the recent declaration of the new (ier- maii Chancellor, .Micnai lis, that tne war will he continuecl with active vigor unless the allies submit to the (ierman peace terms which would be practically an acknowledgement ol a complete !erman victory. Perhaps many people overlook the fact that the Teutonic powers and their adherents now have about l,r00,000 boys arriving at the lighting age every year, as compared with about 1,000,000 in the liiil'd States. The greatest accretion ol potential soldiers for the allies i.: in Kussia, with about l.oOO.OOO young men coining of age each year. There are present great lack is organization, eouipniciil and unity of purpose. Ilussia now has probably I.",n0(!,0u0 men eligible for military service, but tlr.'se must be organised, trained and supplied with officers and equipment before they can be sent to the battle fronts. If only one-third that number were now in readiness there, the war could perhaps be ended this year. An army of that strength, if kept well supplied, could doubtless penetrate Austria-Hungary and gain control of (h it great storehouse of food production, which is the chief sour.-e of Teutonic subsistence. If that were accom plished, .submission must (jtiicl ly follow. On th" other hand the (h rmans are said to be developing great irrigation wori.s in A !a Minor and the Euphrates Uiver Valley, and probably bv next c ir will be producing great Uanti ties of foodstuffs th It i-, : lso believed (hat great numbers of war prisoners, as W"!l as deported Medians, are being compelled to work on tiiose irrig.ilion and development projects, as steps in their great schem" and purpos" of world domination. As a result of three ears of war, Cermany now fully domin ates Austria-Hungary, Tui'l.'V, Ihilgaria, nearly all of Serbia and Montenegro, half of Koiimauia. Pussian Poland, almost all of l'.el gium am? a considerable section of prance. This includes a broad sweep r territory extending almost from the Knelish Channel through Europe and Asia nearly to the Persian Cull'. If the war were to cndmw- which is the great (Ierman desire--leaving the situation in status ipio. it would be for them one of the greatest victories ever recorded in the world's history. With all that is now in their control another ten years of preparation would put world domination absolutely wilhin their grasp. They have al ready gained control of one of the great cross-roads of the world Constantinople- -and with ten years mor:1 of preparation could doubtless seize the Sue Camil, gi ing (hem domination over near lv the whole eastern hemisphere. 11 Mice it is no wonder t'rd Cormnnv is anxious for peace now - having made such an enor mous stride toward their ultimate goal-world domination- in the past three years. ..,,,, When we read of the awful devastation in Poland, lemmania Serbia and llclgium. here authentic writers declare that hund reds of thousands of non-rembatants have been destroyed by star vation, cold and the bayonet, we get some intimation of (he world menace from the mad dog that is at large among the nations, de stroying everything that comes ill its way. As on writer re marks, that power acts with a" ruthless disregard of national or individual rights and morals as did the Eeudalism of the six teenth century - nieanw bile operating w ith the highest skill of a modern engineer. ( Eor verifical en read signed articles by prominent men in the National Orographic Magazine for May. 1!U7. With such conditions existing, it is the world's task to over come such ruthles: ness. and destroy loth the rpirit and power for a military and autocratic domination of the world, if civilization is to be restored and demoi rai v and individual liberty allowed to. survive. Hence one of the lecturers at the Chautauqua here last week was probably ri'dit when he declared that tlr-re will be no lasting peace until the imperial oower in C.crmanv is whohy over thrown and the allied armies ih nioust rate this bv victoriously marehiiH' the streets of l'.erlin to the mn-ic of "The Star SpangV.t Paimer" and the "Marseill-iise." Anything short of that would n a recurrence ol 1 He v i r on a si u i more emu inous m ,nr .i i s hence Cnless Prussian militarism is destroyed civ Hi '.'it ion en veil and indiv idual liberty d.

Wher ever Ihev mav be called it is sale to predict that our local contin gent, togellier with a million i liter Americans in l.ahki. will be doing their full dutv and over. No one can cues! ion that they willfully uphold our nation's best traditions e III vcirs.
