PRESS CENSORSHIP JoLTEp.

Newspapers published in England
can thank The London Times for the
victory they have now over the strict
press censorship that has prevailed
since the beginning OF the war. The
govrnment's charges against The Lon

realm act were dismissed by pre-
siding Judge at the Mansion House
An article contributed by a military
writer TO The Times declared that
though France has called out her last
reserves. England had failed to send
her full quota of men to the front
The Times defense was that the sub
stance Of the article had been printed
before and with the official sanction
OF the French government.

THE SALE OF AMMUNITION.

There Is n point or two about the
sale Of ammunition by American deal
ers to the warning nations of Europe
that ought to be cleared mp. not by
any means In n spirit Of controversy
hut only to make the record clear
says The Duluth Herald.
The United States has been criti
cIzed for permitting It's manufacturers
to sell arms and ammunition. chiefly
on the ground that they sell only
10 the allies: and there has been
insistence that the government stop
this traffic. As TO this. the position
Of the government is that II Is not
this country's fault tina: Germany IS
not in a position TO buy. that IL would
he buying II delivery could he made
and that TO stop the sale Of arms be-
cause one side of the conflict Is un-
able 10 buy would be TO violate neu-
trality Dy taking step in the interest
al that side and against tho other side
Il mas been repeatedly stated. too
that Germany. during the Spanish
American war. refused to- sell arms TO
Spain. and that this is proved by the
autobiography of Andrew ID. White.
who was then the American ambassa-
dor 10 Germany. This Is not so. The
New York World. replying 10 a cor
respondent. thus explains the basis
for this assertion:
No such proof is 10 be found
in Mr. Whites autobiography.
AS ambassador. Mr. White heard
that a ship was leaving port with
munitiOn for Spain. In an excess
Of zeal which did no credit to his
knowledge either of German or in
ternatiOnal law. he protested. and
was \ told later that. the ship i'm
question carried no munitions.
Ambassador White was then
advised by the American state
department on two points: That
German sales OF munitiOn to
Spain would he wholly in accord
with international law as asserted
by the United States; neverthe-
less. that Il il was contrary % Ger
man law il might be we'll To have
the fact known. Mr. White there
upon made a quiet inquiry and
found that German law did not
forbid such sales TO a belligerent
nation. That was the end OF the
matter. The American government
stood then where il stands today
on the subject. and Germany stood
In the same position as the Amer
