We waited loon, we bore much, and we are now Bending our aona to the war declared against the "Imperial German Government" becauae the rec ord of thirty rear* ahowa that neither liberty nor democratic Inetttutlona are Mfe the world over while that govern* ment la powerful. We wisely prefer, after what Belgium Buffered, to light Germany "somewhere In France" rath er than In New York harbor; on the Homme, rather than on the Hudson.

"Congress shall make no Uw • • • abridging the freedom of speech or of the preaa." ao reads a clauae 1b oar Conatltutloa. Thla la a wiae pronelon. Tha cltl aena of a democracy should at all tlmea know of and bo ablo to criticise the management of their affairs. Ia veotlgstioa and criticism In tha pres ent war hare been of Croat benefit la hastening our pref>*ration by point ing out errors that hare boon made. There la no doubt whatever that the groat safeguards la tha conduct of the war are almoat unlimited publicity and the right of criticism. We aro told that constructive crit icism is always welcome, bat who Is to decide what la constructive? Why not criticism without the adjective? Most dtlsaoa believe that Ualvarsal Military Training as a corrective of our unpreperedness would have been constructive, snd yet It waa not adopt ed. Who can tell. If It had boon ac cepted when first propooed. what tho reault would have been on thla war I If we had had more publicity upon tho production of aeroplanes. shipping and erdnsace, tho suggestlona of think ing men would unquestionably have stimulated tho rapidity with which theoe articles wero being produced, snd tho delays that have occurred might have boon avoided. There are thlnga tho Government cannot make public, and theoe the peo ple do not aak to know. But In tha mala full information concerning the progroao of preparation can safely bo given to tho people. It Is tho people's war; It la a war supported by tha peo ple, financially aad phyaically, and suggestions by them MiouM be sought and iiisMdarad. *1 la aarflaataaataty Mat aol mm ia ilwtrri and mm tha I of a ■!■■■'« induatrtal urgently d—aad* la par lrater tranapart to the tut y abataclea daring tha Mr, and mi aM« to gain ground buy a lowly The nataa—ry aranaahip mant arrangement* naie lacking, and tt waa only a laat yaar that regular iu— ualiatlow could ba developed, although It la at 111 vary limited.

Too many atoppagc and dalaya occur in the journaya, and a eloacr cooperation of railway* and waterway* is needed, at laaat in war time The defective development of the ran*I system make* it necessary for coal to be transferred to the railway for further tram port at the trans shipment stations of the upper Rhine and the Dortmund-Ems and Ems Weser canals. Here the necessary means of transport are usually lack ing, as the wagon supply is not punc tual. The coal lies at the place rff debarkation and has to be twice load ed and unloaded, instead of being transferred direct from ship to rail way. Increased efficiency of the wat er way system can alone bring the transport question of ore and coal nearer a solution. The Joy of Living. To enjoy life we mu-t have good health.
