THE "UNFRIENDLY ACT.-

In his hrst note on the submarine
warfare Germany was conducting
President Wilson gave that nation 10
distinctly understand that the United
states would hold her 70 a strict
accountability" for the safety of the
lives Of American citizens On neu-
trail and belligerent merchant vessels.
Then followed the tragedy OF the
Lusitania in which over one hundred
American citizens lost their lives.
The strict accountability declaration
has not yet been satisfied, having
been lost sight Of in a mare OF dlplo.
matte backing and filling. In his
nnal note on this deplorable Incl.
dent President Wilson called Ger.
many's attention to the grave fact
that any repetition OF such an alb.
horrent act would be viewed by the
United States government as an I'm.
friendly act.
These expressions regarding the
altitude OF this country are definite
enough to escape any diplomatic per.
version, and with this full under.
standing we have a repetition OF the
"abhorrent act in the torpedoing OF
the steamer Arabic. The United
States conceded the right OF Germany
to destroy British merchant vessels.
only after they had been visited and
searched and noncombatants and
neutrals on board had been given an
opportunity to proceed to a place OF
safety. There was no warning. much
less visit and search" in the case
OF the Arabic. SO far as known two
Americans were lost in the sinking OF
the steamer. and the question arises.
how can the torpedoing OF the Arabic
escape the application of the "un.
friendly act" representation. n II
shall be so construed as a palpable
violation of our rights as neutrals.
then. as The Intelligencer once be-
fore asked. what are we going TO
do about II. What can we do about
Il?
The Wheeling intelligencer. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1903-1961, 1915-08-21

is that they lose sight OF the awful
gravity Of the case. They believe
that their personal feelings in this
matter should be taken as testimony
on behalf OF the good intentions Of
the mob. The attempt 10 shift the
responsibility for the outrage on
Slaton is a weak subterfuge to dis
tract attention from the enormity OF
the mobs culpability.
Judge Morris attack on Slaton Is
on a par with the inflammatory
utterances OF Mayor Woodward. OF
Atlanta, who in his address at san
Francisco intimated IL would not be
safe for the former governor to re-
turn to Georgia within a year Both
Judge Morris and Mayor Woodward
are opposed TO the political ambi-
tions Of Mr.. Slaton. and in this fact
their animus is made clear. Instead
however. OF trying to remove the
stain on Georgia's 'scutcheon they
are proceeding to make it deeper and
blacker.

The movement has gained

The movement has gained
strength since the World Peace
Foundation began urging the pro
paganda In favor OF calling con
ference Of the neutral states 10

lection OF neutral rights against
the eEcrOachments OF belligerents
a. Sel as for the purpose OF OF
fering measures TO secure the per
manency OF The peace which shall
be established after the war Is
over
The Peace Foundation suggests
that the conference might be cal
led through the agency OF the gov
erning board OF the Pan-Ameri-
can Union which would seem To be
an excellent neucleus for such a
movement. n this conference Is
held u may well be the germ from
which shall grow a greatly in
creased respect. not only FOR neu-
trail rights but for humanity itself
during the progress OF the war.
and with the prospect OF a world
court and a world federation or
some other agency for maintain
ing a peace hat shall be perma-
nent when the war shall come TO
its end.
The proposal for concerted ac-
ton by neutrals stands out In
shining contrast with various fana-
teal and impracticable notions OF
some other peace organizations.
Take-for instance-tne Anti-En-
listment League. which proposes
a pledge for our young men not
TO enlist as volunteers for any
military or naval service In inter
national war nor TO approve OF
such enlistment on the part or
others" Such an abominable pro-
paganda would be deservedly pun
ished as treason by some nations.
A proposition for the union or
neutral states. however. TO secure
neutral rights against the inva-
sion OF belligerents Is a sugges-
ton OF great value and one most
natural and opportune when we
read OF the destruction OF neutral
vessels. of the killing OF women
and children upon unarmed ships,
of the virtual blockade OF neutral
ports and Of the suppression OF the
commerce OF neutral states with
one another. not TO mention the
hagrant invasion OF neutral bound
aries. the destruction OF cities and
the wholesale slaughter OF non
combatants during the early
stages OF the war. in territory
whose neutrality had been guar
anteed.
II Is too much for any one neu-
trail nation alone TO undertake the
defense OF all neutral rights or
even of its own rights in this great
whirlwind which Is now sweeping
over the world. AL the great mill
