A DEFINITE POSITION TAKEN.

President Wilson's latest note to Ger
many satisfies the demands of those who
have insisted on a vigorous declaration
OF rights of American citizens, but still
II stops short of belligerent attitude
that would be likely TO arouse great
raneor on the part of the nation to which
ii was addressed. The note goes so far.
however. that il would seem to leave
the United States but slight choice of
courses in case Germany should reject
the proposals therein contained; but the
more timid and cautious people of the
United States should be treasured that
their country is still far from a declsra-
tion of war or from possibility of having
war declared against it. A diplomatic
rupture between the ksiscr's country and
the United States NAV he looked for IL
the latest declaration from this country
receives serious afTront; and such sew
erance of diplomatic relations in and Of
itself would not constitute a state Of
war. albeit il Is admitted that the con.
ditions resulting therefrom would be in
such delicate balance that the smallest
influence might turn The balance to-
ward war That course would prove
detriment to the cause Of world peace
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1915-05-13

10 farcical to urge that the warning
printed in the New York newspapers OF
the day the Lusitania sailed met tn,
requirements of the situation. German
armies are entitled to massacre molten
sive and unarmed civilian population on
land, after the style of war-painted saw
ages, il the German navy may slaughter
noncombatants at sea as these Ameri.
cans were slaughtered when the Lusita-
mia went down. Only facts still unre-
ported could moderate this Judgment.
Yet 1t is true that the German govern
ment had no desire whatever to cause
the death Of these Americans, il would
much have preferred that no Americans
had been aboard From the German gov
ernment's viewpoint, the presence of
Americans on the ship must be a regret
table circumstance. There was no DELHI
|erate attack, therefore, on the honor of
the United States in the primary sense
OF the words. Our government will
necessarily demand suitable redress from
the German government because of the
American lives lost, but a war for re-
dress or reprisal would not be within
the bounds Of reason.
While lacking those poignant emotion
al elements which make the Lustania's
tragic fate so explosive in its effect upon
the American mind, the truth remains
that in principle the torpedoing Of the
Gufight week or more ago is the more
serious case. The attack there was on
an American ship flying the American
flag, and the result was the loss of the
lives of three American citizens. Our
government has not yet been able to
collect authoritatiyely all the facts bear
ing upon that event, and its diplomatic
representatives to Germany are necessar-
lily delayed until it can be sure of the
groundwork of its case. But the tor
pedoing without warning Of an American
ship with attendant loss of life among
American citizens, unless reparation is
and the act disavowed, is a
more serious affront by far to American
rights and American honor than the loss
Of American lives on British liner.
In any case, there will be found ways |
TO vindicate this country's rights and |
lightly, without resort to a state of war |
hat would be fruitless and perhaps RI |
iiculous because the belligerents would
De in no position to do each other harm. !
4 Germany is bent on desperate courses
hat make mockery of American rights
m the high seas, she will pay for her
onduet heavy price in the end by
eason OF the permanent enlightenment
i American sentiment against her. But
here is still hope that German reckless
Tess has not reached the point where
emoniac desperation annihilates reason.

on April 20, have low been promulgat.
ed by the secretary OF agriculture. The
regulations are substantially those which
were submitted to the consideration OF
representative cotton merchants and
manufacturers at the conference. The
date when they become effective, how
ever, has been changed from June |, 1915,
to July /, 1915, and the regulation re-
curing fumgation at the port OF tn
try has been omitted for the present.
The purpose of these regulations is
to prevent the entry into the United
States OF the pink boil worm, which, in
those countries where it has gained n
foothold, has proved one OF the most
destructive OF cotton pests. 1t is ire
quentlv found in the cotton seed, and
as some seed is almost invariably mixed
in the lint, it il not considered safe to
permit unrestricted importations of the
latter. The new regulations provide for
the entry of foreign cotton under per
nit, limit the sale and delivery of such
imported cotton to mills which have OBJ
tanned license for its use, and require
these mills to adopt certain measures
in order to obtain their licenses.
Fumigatlon of cotton at the port OF
entry will probably be required. The
regulations on this subject, however,
have been omitted until the results of
the extensive experiments now under
way TO ascertain the effect OF fumigation
are known.
The Barre daily times. (Barre, Vt.) 1897-1959, 1915-05-13

In order to determine both the eff
killing the pink boil worm larvae as
well as the effect of the treatment upon
the lint itself. a committee OF cotton
merchants and cotton manufacturers
have agreed to supply the department
Of agriculture with some go bales OF
Egyptian and other foreign cottons. These
will be fumigated in Washington, and
after fumgation the bales will be sub
mitted to various mills for spinning
and milling tests, in comparison with
cotton of similar grade which has not
been fumigated. The bureau of plant
industry, the bureau of chemistry and
the bureau of standards will also make
careful examination of the fumigated
cotton. The fumigation is to be accom-
plished by means of hydroeyanie acid
gas in practically complete vacuum.
Apparatus is now available for fumi
eating by this method 90 or more bales
of cotton at one time. 1t is also prac-
tcable TO construct an apparatus which
can fumigate carload OF cotton.
The regulations and the various forms
required for permits and licenses will
not be available for distribution before
the middle of May
The advisability of taking similar
measures in regard to Hawaiian cot
ton. the pink boil worm having already
become established in the Hawaiian is
lands, is under consideration.

THE WORKING OF THE MIND IN
EXTREME POSITIONS.

/ With all the reports OF the bravery
Of prominent victims OF the Lusitania
disaster, there isn't one report TO prove
that Ebert Hubbard lived up to the
promise which he is alleged to have
made just before the ship sailed from
New York ON her final journey. The
newspaper reporters had Hubbard declar-
| ing that he had striven all his life for
reputation as a hero and, having failed
| to win the title, he should go down with
the Lustania like a brave man in case
the ship were to be sunk by the Ger
mans. Words spoken apparently in jest
and under a conviction that there was
no likelihood OF the great ship being
sunk stand out with tremendous promi-
nenee now that the Lusitania lies on
the bottom OF the ocean and the body
of Ebert Hubbard has not been re-.
covered. There are no tales of the last
acts of Ebert Hubbard on board the
disappearing Lusitania; but in the alb
sence of those tales and in the light of
knowledge that Hubbard was not res.
cued from one of the ships small boats
there is ground enough for the presump-
ton that he did die as he is said TO
have promised--like man of courage
and fortitude.
Much in contrast to the lack of in.
formation about this man who was thus
brought to the foreground by his ae-
credited words before calling from New
York is the plenitude of assertions re.
garding Charles Frohman, the well
known theatrical man who lost his life
with the ship. While others were scurry.

VI the tale Of Frohmsn is accurate and
IL the words were spoken in al serious

the words constitute a wonderful dis
