LARGE ENOUGH FOR ALL
The World Even Includes Quiet Spots
for Those Who Want to Forget
Belgium.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Not for the information OF your
correspondent Winslow Shipper he
probably finds exactitude bore, like
the wrongs and sufferings Of Belgium
but merely by the way and for any
one who may happen to oyerhear, /
would remark that Homer Lea was an
American. Colonial ancestry. educated
at Stanford, all that sort OF thing. In
the circumstances 1t is rather weird
to find Mr.. Shippen considering him
Encland's oracle. One might also point
out that Mr.. Lea wrote a book urging
Americans 70 arm themselves, 70 get
busy i'm various ways and carve out a
career FOR themselves but why dis
turb Mr.. Shippen's peaceful ignorance -?
He would only cease 10 hear at all,
as he admits he has ceased to hear the
Belgians.
The neutrality Of the Belgans can
be proved to have been farce. he
saws. No doubt it would be too much
trouble for him to prove It, else he
would have done so. And just why
nobody else has proved it is inmate
rial. II looks like a farce to Mr.. Ship
pen-the whole bloodstained business,
invasion and pillage and murder
quite funny, in fact. Why ask him for
proofs when he is so we'll amused, and
besides, he cannot hear.
Whose peaceful and legitimate
commerce" is being swept from the
seas by England just now? Germsny's -?
Peaceful is good. L faith, excellent.
And in what way does England de-
mand sole supremacy in industries and
commerce? The one free trade nation
of the world that gives an equal
chance in every market she directly
controls 20 all her bitterest opponents
can hardly be said TO ask anything but
a fair field and no favor.
To talk Of our commerce being de-
stroyed, II by that is meant our mer.-
chant shipping, is absurd. The Clyll
War destroyed that. England IS only
claiming the right Of search that the
United States not only claimed but en-
forced in times past.
The world, as Mr. Shipper patheti-
cally inquiries, should certainly be
large enough for US all; even large
enough for some Of US 20 find quiet
spot for a nap when we don't want 70
hear the shrieks of perishi~g Belgium.
But it didn't seem so 10 the Germans
when they walked over that little
country with ironclad boots.
Selahl If Mr.. Shipper is open 70 any
more enlightenment, may ] ask my
friends r. r., A. +. l.. and Mr.. Cham
berlain TO stand my watch? They do II
much better than ! can; and ] thank
them in advance. NJ. b.

The Rockefeller Foundation Statement

The statement submitted by the officers Of the
Rockefeller Foundation to the Federal Commits
sion on Industrial Relations ought TO 90 far
toward quoting the agitation against the Founda-
ton, Of which the chairman of the commission,
Mr. Walsh, seems to be one of the chief mouth
pieces. Mr.. Walsh has expressed the view that
the endowed social service foundations OBJ
stacle TO social progress since they are intended,
according TO his notion, 10 influence public opin-
ion against change and TO retard economic deyel-
opments favorable TO the great body Of wage
earners.
This is, Of course. pure assumption, born Of
the narrowest prejudice. The work which the
Rockefeller Foundation has done so far does not
bear out such a theory. To fight the hookworm
disease in this country and abroad. to promote
medical education and public health IN China and
10 relieve the war sufferers in Belgium are not
missions connected in any way with programme
OF economic reaction. Even 70 conduct an in
ouiry into the relations between labor and capital
IN industry with a view TO affording labor pro-
lection against oppression and 20 increasing its
efficiency cannot properly be construed as a men
ace TO industrial emancipation. The industrial
relations investigation is in the hands of econo-
n,ists and social workers, and it is evident that
IL will be prosecuted on a scientific basis with
the sole purpose Of lettering present conditions
We cannot look 10 the federal government to 40
specialist work like this on large scale and
at great cost 1t is fortunate, therefore, that
private generosity steps in and furnishes the
funds for research and for warfare against dis
ease. The public must benefit immensely from
these social service activities. Why not judge
such activities then, on their own merits and
award credit where credit is due instead Of con-
turing up fantastic Interior purposes behind the

Home Again.

It has taken nobody knows how many thou
sand dollars to get Harry X. Thaw back into this
state. And the end is still far off. His trial
for accomplishing his escape from Matteawan
comes first. After that there promises to be re-
newal Of the old fight for discharge with repe-
tition Of the time-worn methods of habeas corpus
writs. trials, appeals and alarms. There is not
the slightest hope that the disgraceful litigation
can he ended, and there is always very fair
chance that at some stage Of the dispute the
principal may slip through the fingers of his
keepers and find freedom in some convenient ju-
risdiction not too enthusiastic about the rights Of
a sister state.
It is a disgraceful reflection upon our whole
system of Justice that such things can be. The
layman looks on in contempt and wonderment, and
our whole national regard for law and order is
shaken. Here aye a few million dollars making
laughing stock Of law, justice and the authority
o a sovereign state. Is il any wonder that the
national respect for law is at low ebb?
Nor do we think it is for the voters, unfamiliar
with legal process to lead in reform. 1t is plainly
a case for lawyers and the courts to cleanse their
own house. Our State Bar Association is doing
what it can. The whole membership Of bar and
bench should feel the case reflection upon the
integrity Of their profession and their utmost
efforts toward a sounder simpler system Of pun
ishmcut.

THE CONFESSION OF COL. GORDON
A Challenge to the German Ambassa-
dor to Produce the Truth.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In a letter published in The
New York Tribune on November last
the German Ambassador to the United
States was openly accused of conniv-
ing at a common felony, viz, forgery,
respecting the supposed confession"
Of war prisoner Colonel W. +. Cor
don, Y. c., of the famous Gordon
Highlanders. regarding the use by the
British army OF soft-nosed bullets.
The accusation against the ambassa-
dor was not made i'm any obscure
fashion. nor by any irresponsible per-
son. II was couched in plain and de-
tailed terms by the well known pub
licst, Richard Harding Davis. and was
displayed In q prominent position in
one of the leading journals of the
country 70 which the ambassador is
accredited. When her solemnly APP
pointed national spokesman has been
publicly branded Is a common forger,
one would think that no measures
would be too prompt or too energetic
for Germany and the ambassador 70
take m order 90 refute such a with
ering and damning charge. Neverthe-
less. up 20 the present, his eXcellency
has elected to remain under the un-
rebuked stigma of a constructive
criminal offence against the laws Of
the land.
1t would be a perfectly easy and
simple matter for the ambassador TO
arrange through his government that
Colonel Gordon be interrogated by a
responsible. unbiased and Independent,
panel OF neutrals. under proper and
unimpeachable conditions. and con-
fronted with his confession" Either
the document in question is q deliDer-
ate. lying and cowardly forgery. know
ingiy uttered by the ambassador and
his advisers, in order wilfully 10 ma
lign the chivalrous and heroic British
army, and deceive public opinion IN
America, or II is not. Here there is
no room for evasion, equivocation or
diplomatic shutting. IL Is plain
question Of fact.
Lest. however. his Germanic excel
lency should plead ignorance Of the
open public challenge of Richard
Harding Davis, ! now specifically call
his attention 10 that still unanswered
accusation. and. in order that there
may be no mistake about the matter.
| am sending him by registered post
a copy of this letter, which ! ask you
10 display as prominently as possible.
If his excellency and his industrious
advisers still decline 10 meet the in
dictment openly preferred against them
herein, the great American public will
draw their own conclusions as TO the
probity and honor Of the gentlemen

THE TEUTO.GAELIC ALLIANCE
One Explsnstion of Its Origin and
Purpose.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: ON the editorial page Of The
Sunday Tribune which, by the way,
was one Of the most readable Of all the
New York Sunday papers there were
two communications, one from Halifax
dcploring the lack of sentiment among
the Irish for the Allies and the other
from the lamenting Jeremiah O'Leary
explaining why he wasn't irish, but
was still for the Germans.
As ! pointed out once before IN The
Tribune. 99.9 per cent of the Irish are
heart and soul for France and her two
allies in this war The inconsequential
remainder are what the Irish them
selves call professional Micks.' They
arc hcnchmen Of Charlie" Murphy and
spend most Of the time blatherlng
about the wrongs of Ireland and the
perfidy Of England in a vain hope TO
catch the German vote. The results
Of the last election showed that plainly
enough.
The Germans are not so easily
caught. They are natural Republl-
cans. As for jeremiah O'Leary. he is
one Of Charlie" Murphy's right hand
bowers. He hopes some day TO run
for Office on mis- record as a German
vote geter. A FENIAN.
