depth and great brilliance. and his scale

His programme included the Beethoven

Fair Play.

Fair play. 1t is characteristic of
Americans that it is always demanded
and cheerfully given. Even if a man
be down he must get his chance. This
principle can be applied to the Titanic
investigation now going on in WASH
ington.
Ismay stands condemned almost
unanimously of being personally re-
sponsible for the appalling loss of lives /;
first, by insisting that the shorter, or
northern, passage be used so that a rec
ord voyage could be made; second,
for not slowing down when warned Of
icebergs being in the vicinity; third,
for not having, as a director of the
White Star Company, more lifeboats.
Then, on top of this arraignment, he
IS said to have shown a streak of cow
ardice.
So far the readers of The Wash
ington Herald will have to judge for
themselves on the truth of the charges
made and the soundness of the state
ments on which they are based. but Mr..
lsmay can be assured he will be given
fair plsy-that the umpire and not the
bleachers will decide his case.
The withholding of information and
allowing the impression to prevail that
the passengers, were all saved is to be
severely. condemned. 1t raised hopes,
only to have them dashed to the ground
later on. The officials of the White
Star Line are elready condemned by
the people for that, and Mr.. Franklin
will have to do some tall explaining
before he can change their opinion
As for Mr.. Ismay the fact that he
IS alive, that hundreds of men and
women perished, cannot be contradicted.
Fair play will be given him by all
Americans, but unless he can make
good he should be compelled to face
something else besides an investigation.
