j. S. MUST ASSERT FORCE
OF INTERNATIONAL LAW
Time Never So Opportune for Thi
Nation to Stand Up for
Neutral Rights.
JUDGE GEORGE GRAY SPEAKS
Member Of International Permanent
Court Of Arbitration Under The
Hague Conference Addresses New
Jersey Bar Association.

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ j.. juno a.
Judge George Gray. of Wilmington,
Del, who is a member Of the Interna-
tional Permanent Court of Arbitration
under The Hague Conference, asserted
In an address before the New Jersey
Bar Association, in convention here to-
day. that the time had como for
America to assert the vital character
and binding force OF tho obligations
which international law has placed on
belligcrent nations
The destruction OF unarmed merchant
ships. without regard to the lives or
safety of noncombatant passengers
and crew, was characterized by Judge
Gray as so revolving to the commonest
instincts of humanity" as to be pre-
sumably unthnkable In the minds Of
those who framed this convention"
cat The Hague)
1T WAS with n decent respect TO tho
opinion of mankind that our President
has with dignity. clearness and force
declared the obligations of this law
In his recent message to one Of the
warning powers" said Judge Gruy.
and he denounced the destruction OF
an unarmed merchant vessel, which in
volved the sacrifice of the lives OF more
than thousand innocent men, women
and children, including more than q
hundred peaceable citizens Of our own
country.
Amid all the savagery and lawless
ness which have been engendered by
this unprecedented strife. respect for
international law has not entirely
persisted. It's precepts are still an.
pealcd TO by the warning nations, and
Its obligations are recognized even in
their violation.
Never before in our eventful his
tory has the time been so opportune.
or tho conditions so exigent, for our
country to assert the rights that be-
long TO neutral nation, and to invoke
tho principles OF that body of law
whose existence and DEVELOPMENT has
been one or tho browning gIories OF
our civilization. 1t is for us as never
before to stand up for and assert the
vital character and binding force OF
the obligations which this law has i'm
posed upon belllgerent nations for the
protection of neutral rights. In doing
So we are performing n service to the
world and humanity. and even to the
beliigerent nations themselves. who
when the passions Of war have sub
sided. VIII recognize that their own
essential rights and interests have

UNQUALIFIED ADMIRATION
EXPRESSED IN PARIS

PARIS, June 12.-Unqualifed admira-
ton for the firm, dignified and courte-
Gus tone of President Wilson's note to
Germany is expressed by the Paris
newspapers. While 1t is considered in
no sense an ultimatum. tho press con-
siders the language SO clear as to leave
no room for dilatory tactics or q COM
pick controversy. President Wilson, It
is held, goes straight to the point by
inviting Germany to state publicly
whether she will respect in future the
rights of noncombatants and the laws
Of humanitys
The words Solemn representations"
which occur in the note, says the Petit
Parisien, sum up its spirit. Notwith-
standing the perfect politeness Of it's
tone, tho paper asserts such words are
not used In diplomatic documents ex-
cept in periods Of real tension. They
are held to show that President Wilson
has decided on his policy and nothing
will induce him to alter 1t.

means warlike actions. 1t all depends

The Standard argues that the Ger
mans, now that their food supplies have
been proved ample. can afford to sus-
pend the submarin blockade. but we
do not believe German opinion, public
or private, is in n mood for It,"
The London afternoon newspapers
express inability to understand Secre-
tary Bryan's resignation.
The Westminster Gazette character
ICES 1t as "mystlfying," and says It
seems as though he considered the
American note to Germany in tho
nature Of an ultimntum founded on
force. The American people, says the
paper. usually upbraided for their COM
mercialism, have astonished the world
by their altruistic stand for the cause
OF humanity.
