London. Sept. G.-The London press
is almost unanimous in the verdict that
the Austrian Ambassador 90 the United
States should be handed his passport
or resign for his confessed propaganda
to disorganize American munitions
plants.
"Tho Daily Chronicle" declares that
nothing less than this would meet the
case, even considering the perfectly
marvellous forbearance Of the United
States" For @ much less fragrant
offence" it adds, "a British Ambassador
was recalled from Washington twenty
six years ago"
The DAILY News" thinks there car
be few officials OF either the German
or Austrian embassies in Washington
who have not been convicted Of fla
grant conspiracy against the social
stability of the United States.
Commenting on me German peace
proposals, the Jewish Chronicle won

Dumba Should Receive Passports.
The Daily Chronicles" editorial
says:
Americans are long, offering people,
but their patience appears 10 have been
exhausted by the latest revelations as
TO the nature of AuStro- German nachi-
nations IN The States. Dumba stands
convicted on his own admission Of hay-
ing fomcnted labor troubles IN Ameri-

has produced an explosion of righteous
anger lu the American press. which de-
mands that the Amba sador be handed
his passports. Nothing less would seem
10 meet the equities of the case. For
much less fragrant ofence-in fact, for
a trivial error Of ju3gment-a British
Ambassador was recalled from Wash
ington twenty-siX years ago. Dumba
cannot IN decency remain.
The New York World has shed a
food of light on the INSCRIPTIONS

the wide ramihcations of the pro-Ger-

so abused by the agents. official and un-

American ships and the torpedoing Of
the Lusitania and Arabic with wanton
sacrifice Of American lives.
THE American press was almost
jubilant last week in its belief that
President Wilson had succeeded in
stopping the murderous methods Of
German submarines. That pleasant IL
fusion has been broken by the crime
against the Hesperian. The United
States government can draw up very
black indictment on its own account

The Daily News" editorial is as
follows:
If Dumba proves to have actually
claimed in writing that he can disor-

works, il Is difficult TO see how either

whose authority he claims in support
Of his statements, can remain longer
on American soil. There can by this
time be few officials Of either Embassy

The Jewish Chronicle" referring to
the German peace proposals, says:
I'VE wonder whether il Is really be-
lieved that the Jews of the United
States or elsewhere could be deceived
by such a transparent move and
whether any Of the brethren anywhere
are such downright simpletons as 70 act
the part Of German instruments and
help Germany to an opportune peace
in return for vague promises, which
they have neither the power nor the
means TO carry out.
I'VE should like TO know since when
these people, the patentees of anti
semtis and its arch fomenters in
Russia, have been bitten with such a
passion for Jewish freedom that it
must needs head pro-Jewish campaign
or perish
