GERMAN CLEAVAGE.
Tlie Kritili and French have
maintained all along that they
could find no hasK ir the clistinc-
tinn made hy President W ilson and
inut Anif ricans between the ler-
inan government and the iennati
poojilc. So far as they could sec
the kaiser and his people were :i
unit. 1 lindenliurtj and Tirpitz were
national heroes and therefore were
not merely repreentaiiYS of the
military rine; hut representatives of
i lie nation as a whole.
On this account they have argued
thai the only ettcctive appeal to the
ileriuan people was that of armed
force. Propaganda they held of Ut-
ile avail. Nothing would bring the
'lermuns to their sen-es hut actual
ntterinj;. of the aiiie sort that was
hein;' inflicted in their name ami
with their help on the allied iu-
l ion-.
I'erhap- they were right. Cer-
tainly we have had lew I acts so lar.
on which to ha-e the hope of a
cleavage between the miltari-.ts and
the plain people. There is much ei-
dence to the effect that even today
after all the miseries resulting from1
nearly four years of unavailing!
struggle privation and loss the (icr-i
man masses are almost as militaris-1
lie as "Iron lliudeuhurt;'' himself.
There i.i an interesting sidelight
mi this fact in a statement by tor-1
liter Aiuhas-ador I it rai d regarding
the popular tierman attitude toward
air raids and the natural and inev-J
iialde remit of that attitude. I
"Postcards were sold and eagerly!
bought all ovt-r ( iennany" he sa s. ;
"bowing the Zeppelins bombing :
lowns. When some tierman father!
sits by the hospital bed of his dying j
daughter who sobs out her life torn J
with a fatal wound let him tack j
one of those po-tcards over the bed.;
and in looking at it. remember that
"he who lms by the sword shall
perish by the sword;' that it wa-i
a! the command of the kaiser and!
the crown prince when they thought
only the (lernian Zeppelins could
make a successlul air raid that i
these massacres were ordered and!
that the lierman people at the time
yelled their approval of deliberate
dastardly murder."
The reference is of course to the1
losses inflicted on the lierman civil-!
ian population lately by allied re-'
prisals. The dastardly wickedness
of bombing defenseless towns has i
indeed been brought home to the
lierman.s back of the fighting line.!
And they have learned a lesson so1
far as tlicv themselves are concern- '
t-d so that great numbers of them
have earnestly petitioned the general ;
-iafi lo protect lheni by stopping1
raids on French and Fnglish cities.1
The general staff however still
goes ahead with the massacre. And'
the discontent caused thereby is!
perhaps ihe most genuine sign of
cleavage between government and!
people that has yet appeard. i

FIVE MONTHS OF SELF- j
DENIAL. !
"Our wheat acreage this year will
be greater than ever before" says j
Herbert Hoover. "And if the Lord
is good to us in the matter of 1
weather our difficulties will be at
an end by Sept. I. That is not a
long period of sacrifice."
Certainly it isn't compared with!
the weary period of self-denial im-i
po.sed on our allies and the incoin- j
parably greater extent of their fore-j
ed sacrifices. Americans should he
ashamed of any impatience or un-i
willingness in so small a matter as!
cut t nij- our normal wheat consump-
tion to one-half for the next five
months. As new vegetables become
plentiful millions of us can get
along almost entirely without wheat
without any real hardship.
Whatever inconvenience may be
caused by the new rule is lightened
by suspension lor a while of the
meatless day regulations. Jt is de-
.sirable to save meat too; but wheat-
taving is much more vital.

THE SOCIALISTS AND THE
PARTY.
A hill before the New York state
legislature requiring all teachers to
become citizens before they can
tialify for teaching in the public
schools has been opposed by talk
and vote by the Socialist members
of the assembly.
This was of course only to be ex-
pected. The Socialist party in New
York at one time counted among its
members many of the most sincere-
Mm
lv public-nnnded men and women ol
.1... . -I'l i i :.
uic siaic. i nvse nave imw leu u
Many of them resigned voluntarily
when the war broke out. and the
organization forced upon them a
choice between it and their country
Others were turned out by the party
Decause ot their patriotism. I hose
who are lett m the organization are
chief i v futile theorists so utterly
blind to the facts that they honestly
think the pro-tiermanism which
they act is the same as the inter-
nationalism of which they used to
dream. The rest are out-and-out
pro-(iernians.
That all the teachers of the pub-
lic schools of any state in the coun-
try should at the very least be citi-
zens of the United States is so ob-
vious as to require no argument at
all. Very few states have any teach-
ers who are not citizens. New
York of course with its enormous
foreign population faces that prob-
lem. That any individuals not to
mention any organized body of peo-
ple should be benighted or so trait-
orous as to oppose such a measure
seems almost incredible. Jt is an-
other warning that the Socialist
party as at present constituted is
not to be trusted by Americans.
The Socialism which is a spiritual
force working for the brotherhood
of men is one thing. Those big-
spirited men and women who once
belonged to the party and who left
il early in the game professed that
sort of Socialism and are still work-
ing for its realization. That Social-
ism is onlv another game for the
democracy for which we are fighting.
l.nt tlie socialism winch opposes
Democracy is another thing. It is
not for a moment to be trusted and
the two are not to be confused.

! Why there has never been a ne-
