IN the way that historic dispassiona'e

The Atlanta Constitution SAYS
shocked as we are IN common WIN
the rest OF the world, now, more than
ever our country should keep cool ana
be guided BY Judgment rather than by
emotion. We may admit everything
that may be charged m connection WIN
this horrible disaster, IN when there
ia involved the added guilt OF premedl-

We may protest against Germany :
IGNORING our warning that for loss OF
American life in her submarine oper-
atoms She would be held 20 strict ac-
countability.' And, after all is SAID
we must still 90 slow, except as 10
making clear our protest and the TACT
tbat rcparation will be demanded.
Germany is making war, seriously,
intensely. She gave the world Que
warning Of her purpose 20 make under
sea attack on English commerce. More
than that. prior 10 the sailing OF the
Iusitauia. due warning was given OF
tho attempt that would be made. But
AIN that does not excuse the brutality
Of the Lusitania hofor. We Sh9uId "a
give Germany to undt-stand beyond all
question that we will demand reck-
oning and enforce that demand.
But that Hoes not necessarily mean
war. The people OF the United states
do not want war; they have no de-
sire 10 become embroiled in this Euro
pcan uphcaval. and conservative Amer
lea will congratulate herself that there
is M the head Of the government man
who has demonstrated his capabIlity
in dealing coolly, calmly and dIspass-
sionately with each individual incl
dent that has brought us into contact
with the quarrel across the Atlantic.
AS long az there is an honorable
way for the United States TO avoid hos
tlities. not alone with Germany, but
with any Of the warning nations, It Is
the course for Va TO pursue. In no
single incident have we suffered abra-
sion Of our national honor; nor Is
there any reason to believe that, in alb
staining from hysterical haste, we Will
do so i'm this instance"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-05-09

But | do not think there Is the
slightest possibility OF Germany being
able TO check shipments Of food into
England In sufficient quantity to affect
materially the situation.
Even allowing that there is a pos
sibiity that n blockade nearly ap-
preaching efficiency could be estab-
lished by the German submarines, there
are a number Of methods Of supplying
Britain with food. For instance, a mar
row lane in the English Channel leading
between France and England could be
established, which could be so closely
protected by mines and entanglements
Of various sorts, which could be
stretched between floats, and by de-
stroyers on the lookout for periscopes,
that the lane itself would be absolutely
safe.
ut was in that way, 1t will be re-
called, that the British troops were taken
TO the Continent. and not a single troop
ship fell victim to the Germans. OF
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1915-05-09

, course, France has not very much more
food than she requires for her own
needs, but IL would be a simple matter
to import food from North and South
America and Australia into France, il
not directly, then by way Of Spain or
Italy.
81 do not think the government Of
Great Britain will resort to any such
means as this safety lane for the pur-
pose Of getting food into England. It
will not, in my opinion, be necessary.
II is much simpler to import the food
direct TO British ports, and that will
continue, it will be found, despite the
efforts Of German submarines to dis
courage il. II is one thing 20 frighten
passengers travelling for pleasure. It
Is quite another thing to stop carrying
cargoes for profit, as long as war risk
insurance can be obtained, and the Brit
ism government is still writing it, on
British owned vessels. and the United
States government on American owned
boats.
