Tlicy aro being transported at tho rate of from 2M),()()0 to 300,000 a month as shipping facilities offer. It has lieen General Eot-h's policy to conserve those Americans during the preliminary training period, for an effective reserve army to strike when opportunity offers. Few of them have soon fighting, hut these have given good account of themselves, and proved, in tho opinion of both Eroiu-h and JJriiish critics, superior as soldiers to the the Huns. Approximately GO per eent of the troops of the army arc combatant troops but the percentage of line troops recently sent to France is higher than this, according to Secretary 'Hakor. This would make over half a million American fighters in France. It is however, a mistake to call the balance "non-combatants," as all have had mili tary training and fight when called upoh to. This was il lustrated during the German drive at Oambrat and more recently during the great German offensive, when Ameri can engineers fought valiantly between the Hritish and French forces. The fourth phase of the German offensive has closed, with a sanguinary repulse of the Huns, who have dearly purchased burial ground for their slaughtered troops. Great offensives are yet to come. Supreme efforts will be made to break Iho JJritish linos in Flanders and capture the channel ports, to capture Amiens and separate the French and British armies, and to capture Paris. Severe fighting will be in progress all summer. American effort is just beginning to be felt. 'Ameri can aviators have made their first bombing excursion back of the Gorman linos. A few Americans flying, and the American sectors were at the mercy of Hun airmen. Now American flyers are success fully worsting their opponents. Soon the air over the bat tlefield will be as thick with American airships as the Jer sey coast with mosquitoes. Our president is awake to the nood-i of the hour and troops are being rushed abroad, not bv the tens of thou sands, but by the hundreds can be secured, (formally America's mailed fist, to go tip or a progressive democracy of a hundred millions of people, to encounter the blows of the finest army tho world has ever soon, full of the spirit of war and the high morale of a righteous cause, every man a trained fighter, every soldier a resourceful thinker, not a mere military machine. It is a tremendous work America has engaged in, to make the world safe for humanity, to Americanize and democratize Europe, to finance, feed and sustain the war weary allies, but American ingenuity, American industry, American courage and valo ;;iv equal to the emergency. If Foch can hold his line for three months more, Germany has lost (lie war. INDUSTRIAL THI' attitude and statements of President Carlton of the Western Union Telegraph Company in defying the war labor board and refusing to permit employes to join unions, is a survival of reactionary .autocracy from an age that has passed away and does not sot well in a nation that litis, gone to war to permit people to govern themselves. It might go in Germany, but not in America. "Verhotin" is un-American. Discharging employes who have exorcised their right as citizens to co-operate to secure bettor conditions, to at tempt to bulldoze people and control them by force, is the at ptod Gorman system. Mr. Carlton, in'proposing to organize a union of his own, with himself as head, in which the oniployois only weapon, the strike, would be done away with, has taken a leaf from t lie Prussian book for in Ger many unions are only permitted under government super vision and are broken up when they talk strike, and the loaders shot. President Carlton would paternally "protect" the em ployes from themselves, give them "individual protection against petty tyranny and the impelling voice of collective bargaining". In other words ho would keep "Western I'nion oporatois underpaid and over worked as he has always done and leave them victims of the "potty tyran nies and impelling voice" of the company. The action of the Western Tnion colorie of financiers can only bo construed as the determination to preserve the autocratic spirit in America industry. They have closed their eyes to signs of the times and aro incapable of comprehending tho revolution in economic life being wrought by Hie war, for a now order is supplanting the old, and labor will henceforth have a voice in the control of the world. The president is right in sustaining Fx-presidont Taft and taking an active part to defeat this conspiracy of in dustrial autocracy to nullify the government's efforts in securing industrial co-operation needed to win the war.
