Is Released On
Bonds of $500

George Oliver Robertson, the ~
year-old university student who has
been under arrest for several days on
a charge of abandoning his vile and
baby in North Carolina, was released
from the Reno Jail yesterday atteroon
on $500 bonds furnished by his faith
er. a wealthy plantation owner at
Robertson, N. c., through Attorney
George Springmeyer.
The youthful defendant will now
await the arrival of an officer who IS
on the way from North Carolina, and
when he appears it is possible that
he will be met with a writ of habeas
corpus to prevent young Robertson
from being taken back under extra
dition, which has already been grant
ed by Governor Boyle in connection
with an executive warrant.

The City's Water Safeguarded.

In promising Mayor Mitchell that the
sewage from Mohansic State Hospital and
the Yorktown Training School shall not
be permitted to defle this city's water
supply, Governor Whitman has decided
wisely and well. 1t may or may not be
true, as he states, that the eiluent, as
treated, would not endanger the purity
of our drinking water if it were emptied
into Mohansc Lake, as was originally
planned. There is so much doubt on
that subject that every person into whose
home Croton water is piped vastly prefers
to be safe rather than sorry.
The extra cost of carrying the sewage
to the Hudson will be comparatively
slight. Of the money necessary to spend
for it this city will pay the greater part,
anyhow. The state authorities, therefore.
will be granting no favor to New York, but
right, when following the Governors
decision they take Steps to protect the
metropolis from annoyance, worry and
the possibility of an epidemic of dis
ease. This city will be glad that the
Governor saw the situation in that light.

Those who talk in this fashion land we
are not abiding here or elsewhere in this
editorial to professional Germans) must
possess a very hay conception of the
meaning TO foreign purchasers of the un-
precedented sag in foreign exchange or the
power of curtailment possessed by a com
paratively extravagant people like that or
the United Kingdom. Lord Reading has
said. in effect: We'll buy your munitions
anyway, but Wen starve rather than con-
tinue 10 buy in the same quantities your
foodstufFs and other supplies with ex-
change running against us as it has" And
by "starve" he simply meant the prac-
tice of such organized economy as Ger
many is exhibiting.
Whatever the final agreement between
the Anglo-French commissioners and the
bankers, the establishment of the credit
can have little, if any, effect on the traf
ic in munitions. Munitions must be had,
as Lord Reading has indicated and if not
on credit, then for cash. Is it not high
time, therefore, for all good Americans
70 disregard sentiment in their attitude
toward this vitality important question
and, in harmony with the investment
bankers, to decide it upon its msits as "a
matter of business?

A National Fire Prevention Day.

1t is fitting that this city's schools take
part in the observance of October 9 as
a national fire prevention day. There may
be some large cities which have a higher
FIRE loss per capita; if there are, they are
greatly to be pitied, for this city's annual
waste from fires is $l.44 head. That
is a tremendous sum when it is COM
pared with the figures for large cities in
Europe, where emphasis is laid by custom
and law on the personal responsibility of
the people TO prevent fres-or TO take
the consequences IL one occurs on their
premises.
Americans are wofully careless about
fires. A tremendous proportion Of the
fires in this city come from matches flung
recklessly around; many more come from
curtains so hung that they blow at
breath into gas jet. The Fire Depart
ment through It's uniformed men and the
Fire Prevention Bureau is doing excel

"a Matter of Business. "

Al persons still in doubt regarding the
adyisability of the proposed loan to the
Allies and who honestly seek light on the
subject are respectfully referred to the
set Of resolutions regarding it adopted by
the Investment Bankers Association Of
America, in convention at Denver.
These resolutions in their preamble re-
vert to the financial and industrial crisis
of an almost unparalleled nature" which
threatened here year ago and which,
they say, was "averted through the enOr-
nous foreign demand for the products
of Americas farms and factories and the
resulting increased demand for labor"
They point out that the continuance Of
this demand and the continued prosperity
Of the country can only be assured by pro-
vding foreign credits in settlement of a
trade balance estimated at over 81 ,500,-
100000 1t is, therefore, resolved that
the Investment Bankers of America zap
prove the extension Of foreign credits, not
as indicating either Partially or preju-
dice but solely as a matter of business,
and practically as a necessary outcome of
existing conditions"
There is more of it, but its essence is
contained in the passages quoted above.
They express the attitude which The
Tribune has adopted toward the pro-
jected credit, not to mention that of every
dispassionate observer of the trend Of
economic events. There are some persons
with sincere belief in the final triumph
of German arms who object to the loan
as poor investment for the country. To
these it may be pointed out that the coun-
try is confronted with the alternative OF
sure loss Of the amount of the loan in
the curtailment of its foreign trade. to
say nothing of the far greater collateral
loss due to the consequent stagnaton OF
industry, in case the credit is refused, or,
in case it is granted, the chance of Allied
bankruptcy. Is it necessary TO add that,
IN the circumstances, it is a chance well
worth taking?
1t has been suggested that the threat Of
our international customers to curtail
their purchases in this market if they
cannot obtain the credit is mere bluff.

PREPAREDNESS AND BURGLARS
II May Be Bestial, but It's Useful
in Emergency.
TO the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In The Tribune of yesterday a GER
tain Methodist clergyman is reported as say
ing that preparedness for national defence
was akin to men training for prizefght and
would tend to conditions degrading and

When the German sneak thief crawled
through a treaty into Belgium, according TO
our Methodist divine Albert should have
crept under the bed, held his breath, made
no noise and allowed his visitor TO do as he
pleased. When the German burglar broke
through into France Poncare should have
made all speed for a closet and remained hid
den until the burly cracksman had taken all
the booty he could find.
Why should men fight, or even prepare to

and cracksmen have their way? What are

defend the nation at all? If Germany wants
Brazil, let her have it. If Germany wants
New York, give it up at once. The Methodist

that!
Still, the memory OF my scrap with the
burglar remains. and somehow | have the i'm

One of Wars Costs.

The sociologists are forever dining into
our ears that it is posterity which must
pay much the greater part of the costs Of
war. But even they have probably over
looked one serious item in the bill already
accommodating at such a staggering rate.
Il has to do with the names which bellge-
rent parents are fastening upon their
newborn offspring as victory and defeat
follow one another in an endless chain of
emotional climacterics.
Of course, with several major cam
paigns in full swing at the same time
almost every baby unfortunate enough to
enter at this time this torn and bleeding
world marks with his birth some triumph
of arms sacred to the patriotic magma
ton Of his progenitors. If the day hap
pens to have passed quietly on the west
ern front, then in Poland or at the Oar
danelles, or even in the Tyrol, may be
discovered some epochal achievement tc
link forever the domestic anniversary with
history. And 50 the unoffending infant
receives some such middle name "a Neuve
Chapele or La Basste or Ypres or, pro
vided the Russian campaign is for the
moment going favorably, Novo Georgievsl
or Przemysl.
".The Dundee Advertiser" finds that
this practice Of branding babies for life
with the unpronounceable names of for
eign battles has become an epidemic in
Great Britain. 1t processes 20 have hearC
Of plenty of infants bearing one or an
other of the names cited above, and adds

And strategists and other wise mer

Think what opportunities will confront
the truly patriotic parent as the Balkan:
warm up to the conflict! The resources
# Poland and Russia are by no means
exhausted, and those of the Caucasus have
not been scratched Already the sirs OF
the fathers form a grievOus burden, but
obviously the worst is yet to come.

The Allied Credit.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | have read with great interest your
editorial in to-day's issue, "The Allied Credit
a Necessity"
You justify the establishment Of credit on
the assumption that the Allies will triumph
in the war and the allied powers will be in
position after the war has ended to repay
the loan without any loss to the creditors.
You state that "only handful OF Americans
believe that Germany will triumph" As
am one of these few, Iwould kindly ask you
to advise me what my position as good
American should be in this matter, II am
equally convinced that it will not be the
Allies but the Teutonic powers that will win
out in the end Should not consider 1t a
necessity to warn my fellow citizens not to
participate in this loan?
