PROBE SHOULD GO TO BOTTOM.

FRO6E SE70OHB III ~ BO1 tOMs
From such facts as are being
brought to light in the case of the men
arrested in New Jersey in connection
with a conspiracy to make and plant
bombs for. the destruction of munition
plants and steamships it appears that
the government has been at work on
the case for some time and there is
every reason for pushing the investi-
cation SO that all who are in any
way involved will be given an oppor-
tunity to explain the part which they
have taken
There are at least some features of
the case about which the investigation
can be said to have only just begun.
When two of the accused admit that
two members of the German embassy
here were acquainted with their in
tenticns' they should be given the op-
portunity to explain how they were
willing that such should go on in a
country friendly to Germany, after
having advised against it, That they
did not favor such an undertaking
was reason enough for them to SEE
that those who were engaged in it die
not operate over their heads, as APP
pears to have been the case if the con-
fessions are true. Boyd and vor
Papen have been connected with {
number of questionable affairs ii
months gone by.
Another direction in which the prob
should be sent to the bottom is tina
surrounding the part which it is claim
ed both the German government an,
the German-Americans have taken il
giving encouragement to the scheme
through financial and other assistance
1t is case which should be sifted t
the bottom and the responsible,
placed where 1t belongs regardless o
who may be involved.

DooeINe THEIR OBLIGATIONS.

There are people who seem to feel
that public funds exist to be drawn
upon when occasion requires without
any obligations being incurred by them
and that appears to be the case with
those people who, caught in Europe at
the opening of the war anxiously
sought government assistance in get
ting back home but have since for
gotten all about reimbursing the treas
ury department or showing any dispo-
sition to do SO.
Scarit must have been the apprecia-
ton Of the service rendered to them
and small the gratitude when it is now
announced that there are over 200 New
Englanders who are facing prosecu-
ton by the government in order TO re-
cover the amount extended in meeting
their needs. People who are able to
travel in Europe must be recognized
rs sufncientry provisled with funds to
meet such obligations before this time,
and it must be cause for humiliation
upon the part of many of them when
a working girl in making her final
payment on the amount borrowed
writes to the treasury department that
despite illness and misfortunes she has
insisted in returning every penny be-
cause she wanted to show her honesty
II that disposition prevailed in each
instance, and it is the only one which
ought to, there would be no need for
the government to take steps to gel
back its money. The amounts adj
vanced were not gifts but loans, and
there would have been a great hue
and cry had this country or it's con
suls insisted upon adequate security
when the money VIZ, advanced
yet the experiences it is having in get.
ting some Of the people TO pay theil
debts would warrant such course
being pursued at another time.

LONDON, Dec. 5.-A trial consign-

frozen, has just been sold for fancy
prices on the London market. The
government is said to regard the ex-

view of the ottawa assertion that
with proper facilities two million
pounds of fish per week can be sup
piled for English markets
Those who believe that such a trade
on a permanent basis would prove
beneficial to both Canada and the
mother country are urging that a
small guarantee per pound be placed
on consignments for a time for the
benefit of shippers.
