which was of very high-class character.
The proceeds of the sale of the work

Ministry and the Censorship.
(Boston Transcript


 All the troubles which now con- front the British government ca be traced directly or indirectly to it's cen sorsi1ip of news. The censorship has been pushed to such ex- tremes that editors and reporters of obscure provincial papers have sud- denly leaped into fame through being faled into court and fined. A repor- ter is offered private letter from tho front whose writer is locally we'll known. He copies it or makes ex- tracts from it and turns it in for pub- lication. The editor passes it and the next day he and the reporter are fined and incidentally are stigmatized as semitraitors.
 The British press patiently endured 7 this treatment for months, but it's pa tience is becoming exhausted, and it. is now either leading or pushing the s1d1bvemen for d coalition miistry The newspapers wants the news and the public wants them to have it. The British press is sensible enough and responsible enough not to publish war secrets It would heed any reason able request the government might make for reticence, but when editors aailfd reporters are fined for printing what are not secrets but simply mat ters of local interest to their readers, such as the whereabouts and condi- tion of the company" 1t realizes that the censorship has attained inQuisi- torial powers smacking more of Rus sia than Great Britain.

Truth About Arms Traffic.


 If the German government and the German newspapers would tell the German people the truth about the sale of war supplies, there wouldn't be such resentment against Ameri- cans as there is today. The truth isn't merely that international law and practice have always sanctioned the sale of arms and amm unition by neutrals to belligerents. It isn't merely that it is necessary for non military nations like ours to preserve this right for the sake. of their own safety, so that they may be able to obtain arms for themselves in case they should be attacked unexpectedly by a we'll prepared nation. It isn't merely that the German government has always recognized this principle, and does not now venture to call the American practice illegal The truth is that Germany herself has uniform ly practiced the very thing that the Germans now condemn. IL was the Germans-that is to say, The Krupps, the great manufacturers of arms and ammunition at Essen--who armed Russia in her war with Sapan. It was the Gernans who sold Great Britain the vast quantities of muni- tions required to put down the South African rebellion, even while Ger many was protesting the strongest

Politics ana Police.
(waterbury American. }

wv dterDury Amerlcan.
 Mayor Quigley of New Britain finds that political pull and partisan poli- ticsa do not nake for efficiency in police and fire departments. He favors committee which shall. draft civil service rules governing the ap- pointment of men to these depart ments. He thinks the New Britain police and fire departments are in need of thorough shaking up and says in his annual message to the common council:
 The bane of the police and fire de- partments has been political inter- ference. Men have been appointed to positions in these departments who would not have been appointed had they not had political pull.
 Political pull and partisan politics must be driven from the police and fire departments if you are going to have efficient departments.
 And there is more along the same line. Anyone who has in mind pos sibie change in these two departments in Waterbury such as might be made under the Devine home rule act could read the entire message with profit.
 The New Britain mayor doesn't say
