Wilson's Note In Line With
COuntry's Best Sentiment

Supremacy. satisfactory Is President
Wilson's note TO Germany.
Without hesitation, without resortinc
to the roundabout language Of over
careful diplomats. frankly and firmly the
president sets forth the position OF the
United States as the vast majority of our
citizens comprehend it, and opens up -
Germany the only way she can travel 10
repair the wrong she has done Us and 10
avoid future injury.
Doubtless the president assumes too
much when he takes it for granted that
the commanders Of submarines exceeded
their instructions when they sank vessels
without proper warning.
II seems certain that Germany's deS-
perate policy was to create new law OF
warfare, which would absolve sub
marines from the old customs, and give
her a considerable advantage.
But instead of complaining agains.
such rule as existing, the president as
sumes that Germany still holds 10 the
principles of international law which
have been established, and will disavow
the acts of her rash commanders.
Thus President Wilson opens the way
for Germany TO recede honorably from
the wholly untenable position which the
sinking of the Lusitania gives evidence
that she has assumed-a position which,
in the eyes of neutral nations, can only
be piracy.
The question of proper warning TO
American citizens is well handled, not
only as regards its surprising irregu-
larity" as coming through the news
papers instead of through diplomatic
channels, but also with respect to the
ethics of the intended action.
The president says firmly that excuses
and regrets will not do.
Reparation, in so far as reparation is
possible, must be made; and further than
this, Germany must insure us against 4
repetition of such acts as the president
specifically mentions.
And, like the sting in the tail of the
bee, the final paragraph sets forth the
United States determination 10 uphold
the rights of its citizens By word and
deed
1t is hard 10 see how Germany can
bubble over so honest a statement Of
fact and intention.
She can do but two things.
She can disavow the acts of her sub.
marines and airmen against Americans,
and offer reparation, thus taking an hon
orable stand, and cause her 10 be respect
ed in the world
Or she can defend &erspolicy declare
that she has done nothing wrong, and
plainly stamp herself pirate nation, a
sort of mad dog in the community, hated
and Stunned by ALL
In the latter case, the presidents letter
seems to leave but one course open 10 Us,
a course which we must view with re-
greet
That is to give the German ambassa-
dor his passports; to do DR.. Dernberg
the same favor; and to take steps to in
tern and protect those German-Ameri-
cans. among us whose regard for the
fatherland triumphs over their Ameri-
canism.
This does not mean war, for it has been
truly pointed out that there is no room
for us in the European struggle.
But il does mean alignment with the
allies, and participation with them. as :
partisan, in the peace negotiations, wherf
the reparation which we now demand
will be forced as part of the treaty which
concludes the war.
