you can make an inexpensive lotion that
will do wonders as a skin whitener and

Comment of American Press on
the Note to British Government

Following Il comment Of American
newspapers on the note OF the United
States government TO Great Britain in
regard to the interference Of the British
navy with American trade:
New York sun: The note reflects ex-
actly American sentiment and describes
accurately American purpose. We stand
upon the law and demand that Great
Britain shall obey that law; and this
administration only expresses the will Of
the American people.
New York World: On such a showing
Of courage as is here made. the terms
Of the American protest must be regarded
as exceedingly temperate. To gain a
military advantage more OF less import
ane. Great Britain has become a grievous
offender Of laws; against Its own cher
ished principles; against several Of the
small nations Of Europe. which II has
assumed 10 champion and against the
best and most powerful friend that It
has among the neutrals of the earth.
1t has not killed Americans; It has killed
American rights. 1t has done more than
seize American property; 1t has seized
the opportunity thus wantoniy gained
to extend It's own trade. IL even n gieam
OF sense can penetrate Downing street,
the British must soon perceive that un-
less II changes its methods. It's own ac-
countants will have something to do
presently.
New York World: Upon international
law, as this existed before the outbreak
OF the present world conflict. the govern
ment Of the United states rests its cause.
In the belief of what II holds to be the
rights OF neutral commerce, II will spring
to bear the full strength OF Its diplomacy.
For fullest reparatlon for damage done
American commerce, II will insist with ali
it's strength.
Boston Advertiser: The note states the
American case very strongly. But foi
that matter. 20 did the note which waf
first sent TO Great Britain on this same
subject many months ago. And at inter
walls, the United States has been sayinE
the same thing very logically, very pow
erfully, very urgently-and without any
perceptible effect. that anyone can note
in changing the British policy.
Baltimore American; Great Britain has
INDUCED in no murderous work. but Il
has destroyed millions OF dollars o.
American property. This is the graves'
charge the United States can bhns
against Il. but It ls a mighty serious
charge: one that may endanger th'
friendship OF the two great English
speaking nations.

ature OF international relations II Grea

full acceptance Germany has made OF
almost every American contention this
note puts up to the British government
a very sharply defined choice between
radical amendment OF It's course and
conscious defiance OF the United States.
Springfield (Mass) Republican: Our
governments neutrality requires It to
play no favorites. We have successfully
fought out with Germany the issue OF
submarine warfare in its relation TO the
rights of neutral noncombatants. Most
bitterly have we been denounced by Ger
man sympathisers for favoring Great
Britain. II Is possible now we will be de-
nounced with equal bitterness BY British
sympathisers.
Such trading rights as are involved II
the controversy with Great Britain can
not conservatively lead to any rupture
OF friendly relations between the two
countries The diplomatic warning sem
to London cannot be regarded as dis
quieting, although there is iron in II.
