when the killing Of an American sol
der by foreign bullet would have
rocked the nation from one end to
the other. Not so very long ago the
exercise of mob violence would have
been featured in big headlines in
every newspaper in the country.
Has the incessant reading of war
news, the stories of dead and dying
expressed in terms Of thousands, the
calm announcement OF appalling fatal
ties lessened the value OF human life
in neutral as well as belligerent
countries? Has the mob spirit in
Georgia, the mob spirit in Texas, been
generated by the apparent indiffer-
ence OF this nation to the safety OF
men within the law as well as men
defending the law.
1t is a great thing to have the
currency OF the world measured by
the standard of the youngest nation
in history. But what a cloud upon
that fame to have it said the con
