Miss Richards Lectures

This morning at II o'clock Miss Janet

present season on Current History Day

IF 1 were asked" said Miss Richards.
at last Mondays talk. what our peo-
pie should pray for in the present crisis.
Ii would be that the European war may
cease before our country is drawn
into it.
Law F1aErautly Violated.
With every passing week. the rights.
privileges, and immunities of the United
States on the high seas. as guaranteed
by every canon of international law,
are more and more fiagrantly violated
by both Great Britain and Germany.
while the tone of even our most conser-
vative American journals. grows more
denunciatory and menacing, and the dig
niiied protests of our State Department
are either politely evaded or ignored.
One leading editor denounces Eng
lands long-range blockade of Germany
as an indefensible misuse of sea power
an attempt at International bullying. and
even new form of piracy-all of which
is more diploma tically characterized by
our State Department as course OF
action previously unknown to interna-
tional law. which is but another way
of saying the same thing
Great Britain's recent reply to our
protest against relinquishing all our
trade with Germany is known as Or
ders in Council and may be briefly
stated follows:
Il. No merchant vessel from any
port may proceed to any German port.
'2. No merchant vessel may depart
from any German port
80. Neutral ships sailing between
for or from Germany. may be ar
rested
Briefly. the British statement
reads in part: The British fleet has
instituted a blockade effectively con-
trolling, by cruiser Gordon. all passage
to and from Germany by sea.
Both Sides Hurt Our Trade.
If this new form Of blockade Is ef-
fective the loss of customs revenue alone
to the United States will be approx
mately $4,000 a day. We are assured by
the Boston Transcript. On the other
hand. our trade. as well as the lines of
Anne rit an travellers are constantly men,
aced by Germany's ruthless submarine
warfare in her recently created war
Sea and the English Channel.
Truly American shipping now finds it,
self between the devil ard the deep. blue
sea, Therefore, let us pray that the
betting odds reported from Lloyd's. in
favor of an early peace. may prove true.
In reviewing the progress OF the
