Berlin Must Speak Quickly.

What is the status of the Arabic case? The
United States government has not received, SO far
as the public is informed, anything beyond the
OF the German Ambassador and his
appeal for the suspension Of judgment until the
Berlin version of the sinking of the vessel and the
loss OF American lives is received in Washington.
For this purpose a reasonable time has been grant
the midst of the general rejoicing that the crisis
in the relations between own country and Ger
many had been passed The Washington Herald
has maintained unconvinced position pointing
out to its readers that only complete backdown
on the part OF Germany could avert a severance Of
diplomatic and commercial relations. So far,
such course is indicated by Berlin. Count
Bernstor has vet to make good. 1t is bit too
early to assert that, recognizing the fixed and I'M
alterabe determination OF the American govern
ior the future, he seized upon a time gaining
pcdcnt; but the country is waiting in no uncertain
temper TO hear from Berlin There is nothing
certain or undetermined about the sinking OF the
Arabic. Germany dsclam responsibility for
tho action of her naval officer who sent the ship
to the bottom without warning. and give
guarantee that there shall be repetition of such
murderous deed or she can take the consequences
OF deliberately hostile And not much time
is 10 be wasted. President Wilson is not blind or
deaf to the sentiment of the people of the nation.
He cannot wait much longer on Berlin.

A Fight Without a Winner.

A tremendous tempest in a teapot has been
raised by the rebuke administered by the Secretary
OF War a former President OF the United States
for remarks addressed to a gathering OF civilians
engaged in acquiring military knowledge intended
to be used in the service OF their country should
emergency require it OF them. Col. Roosevelt is
not sincere in his assertion that he had ntcn-
ton of criticsing President Wilson's international
policies and Secretary Garrison cannot justify his
action in calling Gen. Leonard Wood to account
for permitting the fiery Roosevelt to tell just what
he thought in camp established by the United
States government for the purpose OF giving mill
tary instruction to the business men of Col Roosc-
velt's State
Col Roosevelt spoke in bad taste, but he spoke
what the great majority OF the American people
believe be the solemn truth In rebuking him
Secretary Garrison insincere because he struck
over the shoulder OF Gen. Wood and he struck at
the cnrncaton OF principle in which he is him
self firm believer.
A parallel OF the situation is easily imaginable.
Col Roosevelt might denouncc the administrations
tariff policy before gathering OF business
presided over by the collector OF the port of New
y ork, and Secretary OF Commerce Redfed might
take it upon himself to take the former President
of the United States to task for his views through
the collector. There would be no difference
The impulsive Roosevelt, in the worst of
taste, has permitted himself to attack the policies
OF the man now in the office he once held and
member OF President Wilson's Cabinet has so
far lost posc and control OF himself as to publicly
voice his opinion of the action OF former Pres
idcnt OF the United States, using a subordinate
officer as his medium
The whole affair reflects no credit either upon
the man who President OF the United
States the who today is member OF the
Cabinet OF Woodrow Wilson.

Dangerous Censorship.

Editor of The Washington Herald: or
recent years IL has been the fashion for
certain editors to scoff at personal lib
erty" in connection with the movement
to prohibit the manufacture and sale of
liquor. but j wonder il these same SCOT
fers will approve of the peculiarly Of
fensive form of attack on personal Iib-r-
~ to buy and use liquor that is described
in the following Associated Press item
from Mason City, in the dry State OF
Iowa:
The seizure of l19 barrels of beer at a
local railroad freight house caused the
city authorities today to decide on the
appointment of an official to he known as
liquor censor. 1t is to be the duty of
the censor to determine what citizens
have temperance records sufficiently
good to entitle them to receive liquor
shipments from wet territory
This item may or may not he true
But its truth is not essential. because
the main point is that just such wretch
ed meddling with other peoples business
is the logical outcome of the prohibition
propaganda.
The ideal temperance law from the
dry standpoint would be to give TO
prohibitionist the power to sit in judg-
ment on the fitness of his neighbors to
select the articles of their diet. But why
stop with a censorship on diet? Why
not pass officially on the moral fitness
of each of the women of the community
to adopt certain styles of dress? Why
not have an official censorship on each
mans fitness to handle money. or to take
unto himself a wife, or to have more
than one child?
1t would seem that our civil liberty is
in greater danger from reform than
il is from any other source. for II is only
in the name of goodness that our free
dom Is being curtailed- The leading pro-
hibition organization calls itself the
Church in Action" and as such is at
tempting to assume control of the politi-
cal and moral affairs of the people. and
If the so-called Church in Action" sue
ceeds in getting control, then the Liberty
Bell might as well be thrown into the
melting pot and he recast in the form of
a church surmounted by a cannon. or.
more properly perhaps. the image of the
used for the conversion Of
heretics. T. NJ. GILMORE.

DUTY" versus "RiRhts."

Editor of The Washington Herald:
Your editorial. Gloomy View of Ma
tons Trend" is good thought to SOW in
American minds. Far from the writer's
mind is the sweeping denunciation of all
things American. as having no virtue.
Quite the opposite is my sincerest con-
viction. Americans have more up-to-date
civilized virtue by far than any other
people. Therefore emphasize the impor-
lance of duty" that little word of four
letters. that does not get a fraction of
the emphasis that rights get: and both
words are parents to the highest citizen
ship. Indeed. apart from the military
savasery of Germany. she stands out az
the best example of fulfilling duty and
making 1t an inseparable vital 'of man
kind. In Britain II is an old axiom that
she expects every Briton to do his duty
This is supposed to apply to the duty
to the flag and state only. Germany en-
forces it to apply to all things in her
state life. 1t may seem paternal and
taking away the liberty of the citizen
too much. but liberty when used as
license is menace to civilizat ion. and
If any one thing produces this liberty
gone-wild customs in Americans II is the
exaggerated ego of their rights

fill them with water. \ lake between

offer in the future. For the present
