DENATURING THE U-BOAT.
if the latest demand by our govern-
ment is conceded by Germany, the
usefulness of the submarine as a com-
mercedestroyer will be ended.
Germany has yielded to our conten»
lion that when merchant ships are at-
tacked the passengers and crew’s
must first be. removed to a place of
safety, it took 'a long. hard diplo-
matic light. but the principle now
seems established again as an in<
tegrnl part of international law. The
Herman submarines in the lastfew
{weeks have acted on this humane
ltu'ian rule apparently without excep-
lion. although an Austrian submarine
{wasvrecentlt reported to have sunk a}
French passenger ship without warn-
" Ing. The British, whose undersea
hosts have-lately become as active
against the enemy's commerce as the
German 1'.»boats were a while ago.
have never violated the principle.
Secretary Lansing’s latest note,
'howeggr. goes much further. it
maintains that merely allowing the
passengers and crew to escape in
their small boats before their ship is
sunk is not enough—mat small boats
gr; not “places of safety" when they
'm in the open sea many miles from
shore, without. a friendly ship in
:- ”night. Germany is thus asked, as in
I pur first Lusitania note, to retain
from destroying enemy merchantmen
" unless her war vessels themselves see
that the noncombatants on board are
removed to a safe ship or ‘_ are re-
moved safety to shore. And that
amounts to a virtual denial of the
‘ right of the submarine to attack mer-
plmutmen at all ; for it is very seldom
lpafe for such a frail craft to take a
prize ship into port or take care of
fire passengers and crew after their
'lllilp ls sunk.
it would doubtless be well to have
‘ push a rule, and to compel the re;
utti‘ction of the submarine to straight
naval .warfare. Why, indeed, should
it submarine be permitted to do what'
a cruiser or destroyer is forbidden
to do? ‘
if Germany were to accent the rail:
. any of this demand, Great Britain
~lwould be obligedto follow, and um

bined with a power of resistance
which, considering everything. is
amazing.
Serbia is about three-fourths its

Serbia has allies helping her now.

THE CHIEF vrcrtu‘s.
HermauBernstcin, the novelist and
playwright, after a tour of the warring
countries of Europe, reports that while
the war has brought great suffering to
many peoples, the Jews aro‘tho most
tragic victims. ’
0n the continent, it appears, nearly
every man's hand is turning against
them, Their greatest poraeCutlon. of
course, has been in Russlaf in spite
of the loyal service, of hundreds of
thousands of Jews in the Csai’s arm-
ies». and the proclamation of decrees
assuring their families of toleranc"
and “Mm, have suffered as never
before. “For their military defeats"
says Bernstein, “the Russian author-
itles made pogroms against their own
peaceful Jewish people," while the
Poles, even while they were hoping for
freedom themselves, have vied with
the Cossacks in instigating attacks on
the Jews."
in Galicla, he charges. Polish trait-
,Ors betrayed Austria 'to florists and
then tried to shield themselves be~
hind Jews, with the result‘that‘the
Austrian Jews are in peril of persecu~
tlon.‘ Pogroms are impossible in Ger
many because of the strict mainten-
ance of order, and yet hostile feeling
has been stirred up until the Jews
suffer great handicaps and have gravé
fears for the future.”
“The Jews of America," says «Bert»
stein. “must now direct their demands
to Germany and Austria aspvell as to
Russia."
It will be the crowning cup of hit-
temess for the ancient Hebrew race
if the war, while proving literally a
”war of liberation" for various other
oppressed nationalities, should bind
faster than ever the rettors .of anti-
Semitic some... and hatred.

The express companies were sure
that the parcel post was going to ruin
them. But inasmuch as their not
earnings rose from $246,?" in Julie of
last year to $7,048,084, in June of the
present year. and their business has
shown a distinctly upward trend
since that time, it looks as if their
almost as exhausting to Serbia as our_prophecies of calamity were baseless.

and found that the place had been

words no rentals had been paid for
