The vRatsn at Work

TNHE Formidable was not a battleship of
i the first class but she cost five millions
of dollars, displaced $4,000 tons and carried
to the bottom 600 men, including trained
officers, who cannot readily be replaced.
If she was not sunk by a submarine she
might have been These underwater wasps
can never take the place of the great float
ing forts in warfare. Their range of oper-
alton is limited; they are useless for con-
voy, and for general service on the seven
seas they are absolutely unsuited. But they
have spectacularly demonstrated their worth
in one particular and that is for purposes
of coast defense. They have made block
aiding and patrol duty more than ever haz-
ardous. In fact their psychological inhu-
ence has rendered possible such sensational
raids as the one on Scarborough. More than
that. by picking on the enemy's ships here
and there they have been able seriously to
decrease his naval supremacy. The British
are not much worried about the zeppelins;
it is the submarine that they fear. There
will be more Formidables lost before "the
rats are dug out OF their holes"

THE American protest to Great Britain
i is honey dripping from the honeycomb.
1t is saturated with the milk of human kind
ness There is the scent of Nebraska
prairles about it, One can almost see the
peaceful cows chewing the cud under the
blooming trees by the side of the irrigation
ditch. If Lloyds could get 10 shillings per
cent. as a premium for insurance against
war on the basis of that kind of document,
it is apparent that taking candy from chill

Free Trade Between Neutral Ports


Free Trade Between Neutral Ports
PUBLICATION of the text Of the American
4 protest to Great Britain reveals the fact
that Il is directed solely against further in
excusable and unprecedented interference
with our purely neutral commerce. We ex-
pected and acquiesoe in the utter ruin Of our
trade with the enemies OF the Allies, for
supremacy on the seas carries with it the
closure of hostile ports. We nave not even
insisted on those fundamental rights In nom
contraband commerce which precedent up
holds But when England undertakes to
regulate interfere with and even prevent our
commerce with nations that are not at war,
she assumes a privilege which this Govern
ment in no circumstances can admit and
against the exercise Of which it is compelled
vigorously to record itself
The position of the United States emphati-
cally is that cargoes consigned to neutral
points, even if they are absolute contraband,
are not subject to seizure and detention by
a belllgerent we may ship what we will to
Italy What becomes OF the cargoes there
dlleT Is an issue between Italy anu lne OD-
jecting belgerent. 1t is inconceivable that
trade with a great nation should be
impeded because its territory borders on that
of an enemy to Great Britain.
AS to the guarantees which European neu-
trails may make to Great Britain relative to
the none expectation of contraband shipments,
that is none of our business. For CONNER
clal reasons they may enter into such an
arrangement and some of them have already |
done so. But we, for our part, have not
reached the point where we willing to
pursue our legitimate commerce at the suf-
ferance of another nation. We demand free
dom for our ships as a right. Nor will we
swerve one inch from the definite line of
policy laid down, buttressed as it is by
long line of precedents and accepted interna-
tional law. Never has a nation attempted
such bold and reckless interference with neu-
trail commerce as has England in the last
i've months.
The issue is vital, not critical, for it is un-
that England would discredit her
own definitions of neutral rights She has,
indeed, by her extravagant conduct, already
lone herself more potential injury than any
even direct to her enemies, could
lave accomplished, for she has made the re-
,ival of the shipping industry in the United
states absolutely certain. She has assured
uture American fleets that will challenge
Ter trade supremacy more hercely than the
iermans could ever have done

Lincoln's Best Investment

In 1882, when 23 years of age, Abraham Lin
coin fell badly into debt as the result Of a
mercantile adventure that ended disastrously.
The shame and sense of responsibility dark
ened his life. He spent the next II years in
paying creditors. "I had no way of specu-
lating," he said to friend, land could not
earn money except by labor, and to earn by
labor $1100 besides my living, seemed the
work of lifetime. AS late as 1S49, when
member of Congress he was still sending
home money saved from his salary to be
applied on those obligations, Although the
drudgery was humiliating, they we're the best
investment Lincoln ever made, for 1t was
the persistent toll to keep his self-respect
that gave him the name OF Honest Abe"
One of his biographers has said that that
name proved of greater service to himself
and his country than il he had gained the
wealth of croesus" 1t helped to make him
