WHAT OF THE Fl-ΤΓΚΒ? "Tfliat was an interesting interview that. Winston ChurchUl, first lord of .} ι· Ίί· laity of Great britjiiji, ^ave to the United Press Saturday. Natur ally Lord Churchill looks at the matter from the English point »»f view, but even taking into considera tion the prejudice of the British nation, his words furnish Americans something to think about. While there is no particular reason why tho United States should be drawn into the present war, this nation is vitally Interested in the outcome, and we cannot help but look seriously into the future. .^■wmie uermany seems to nave the upper hand now, there is good ground for the belief that, in the long run, she must lose, mainly be cause of the enormous odds against her and the question of supplies. But at the rate Germany is now going, there may not be any long run. It in the possibility of Germany winning that causes concern in the United States. It is well known that Germany has had her eyes on Central and South America for a long time. She has never recognized the Monroe doc trine, and even if she had, It is likely it any time to he considered a mer·· 'scrap of paper.'' 1Γ Germany wins, therefore, we must be in a position lo back the Monroe doctrine to the limit, or else permit Germany to help herself to whatever territory she desires in the Western Hemisphere. The thought that we shall ever have to fight Germany may seem ridiculous, yet a few mouths ago the thought of all Europe being engaged lii the greatest war the world has ever known, seemed equally ridicu lous. The Kaiser has his plans for taking the United States and laying siege to New York, Just as he had for waging war against France and .-v. besieging Paris. General von Edelsheim, a member of the Imperial military staff, has written a book on "Operations Across the Sea" which outlines a possible war against the United States and shows that Germany has at least considered the matter of an invasion of this country. These facts cannot be ignored. A short time ago it might have been possible to believe civilization had advanced too far for any such·move,' .but today when treaties and interna i tional agreements are referred to by the German Imperial Chancellor as mere "scraps of paper," nothing Is Impossible. , ' Ν. Ï. The .Army and Navy Register, In a recent Issue, commenting along thie line, declared that the British navy was the only thing that had kept the Monroe doctrine inviolate thus far It declared it was not to our credit that this was so, yet with Englan.l giving moral support to the doctrine, other European nations hesitated tc break into South or Central America. But should Germany succeed in de feating England and wipe her greal fleet off the seas, the support of the Monroe doctrine rested entirely upon the United States. Lord Churchill's words, therefore, are full of significance for us. He sums up the issue as follows: "The French, English and Ameri can systems of government by popu lar elections and parliamentary de bates, with the kind of civilization which flows from such institutions are brought in to direct conflict with the highly efficient Imperialist bureaucracy and military organiza tions of Prussia. That is the issue. No partisanship is required to make it plain. No sophisty can obscure it. ' If England and France lose in this war the burden which they are bear ing now must fall on our shoulders. The question is, are we prepared to carry it? ΤΗΚ MRECT METHOD. Jf the United States wants a merchant marine she must pay for it, just as other nations have had to pay for it. The only honest way is the open and direct way of subsidy. It is time to stop beating about the bush and recognize the fact. Let us give American ships good returns for carrying the mails and for the privilege of converting liners into auxiliary cruisers in time of war, and we can have a merchant marine. We do not believe it will come in any other way. PEACE. Peace advocates are again busy. We are now told that this is to be he last war and we will have no need for armament hereafter. It nay be so, but as long as treaties md international agreements are onsidered mere "scraps of paper," t is well to take no chances. The vay to answer the peace talk is lo )uild four battleships every year nstead of two as heretofore. New Brunswick newspapers eriti ■ize the EVENING NEWS for looking ifter the interests of Perth Amboy. )f course, we are wrong. We ought, ο be whooping it up for New irunswick.

He said full pensively: "I wonder what she's doing now. And If she thinks of me? "Γ wonder if she sits alone, As I am sitting here, Where shadows which are dim are thrown And there Is lack of cheer? "I wonder If her heart Is sad Because we rarely meet? I wonder If she would be glad If I knelt at her feet? "I wonder If she ever sighs For my ItnpaUent wooing?
