KAISER A BLACKMAILER
BY HERBERT TEMPLE,

iSrecial Correspondent of The Washington Herald
London. July l2.-That abandonment by
the United States of its demands upon
Germany would cause a break in the
friendship between England and America
is the declaration made by the Evening
Standard in an editorial today. Other
papers reiteratc their caustic comment
upon the German reply to President VIII
sons note, declaring it as ''impudent'
and the concessions it offers a S ''idolic."
The impre ssion in official circles is that
the United States will carry on no more
diplomatic correspondence with Germany
over submarine warfare. but will stand
by its demands and break off relations
if the Germans commit any act which
the Washington government regards as
violating them.
Conveys Yelled Thrent.
In its editorial conveying a yelled
threat 20 America the Evening Standard
SAYS:
The German note is too crude even
to provoke disgust. Assurances are given
after a fashion, but their acceptance
would make America the vassal of Ger
many and politically her accompliCe In
murder.
President Wilson. having first de-
nlanded security for Americans as their
legal right, cannot accept il as a con-
cesson from the Germans in partial miti-
cation without eating his own words.
Should America now abandon her legal
standpoint the cordiality of Anglo-Amer-
lean relations would be compromised
for a century,
The Pail Mall Gazette says: The note
is the most impudent document ever for

If the argument is impudcnt and uncon-
vincing. the German offer can only be
described as idolic. Germany now makes
plain her intention of sinking all vessels

Seek to Gain Favors at Expense of Those
Who Create Better Conditions.

In a recent decision of a case be-
tween the building trade unionists and
$40 building contractors, Justice Hig-
gins, president of the Australian Court
of Cancellation and Arbitration, pointed
out the selfishness of non union men.
After vigorously advocating the union
shop, Justice Higgins said:
1T is indeed very trying for men who
pay full dues to legitimate union to
work side by side with men who do not;
with men who look to their own per-
sonal interests only, seeking to curry
favor with the employers, getting the
benefit of any general rise in wages OF
betterment of conditions which is Sc
cured without their aid in the teeth of
their opposition; men who are preferred
(other things being equal) for vacancies
and promotion. Every fair man reeog
nizes the difficulty of the position;
every man who is not too much of n
partisan to look sometimes Mt the other
side of the hedge. In another case re-
