THE GULFLIGHT CASE

The United States government, in
its rather comprehensive reply TO
Germany's war zone edict, stated that
II would hold her to strict account
ability for loss OF American life and
property. The torpedofng OF the
American tank steamer Gulfight, re-
sulting in the destruction OF the YES
sci and the loss of three lives. is the
first case of the kind resulting from
Germany's promiscuous submarine
warfare. Ordinarily such a wanton
act would FIRE this country with an
outburst OF righteous Indignation. but
ordinary conditions do not prevail
now; they are quite extraordinary.
With diplomatic proceedings abnor-
mally twisted and treaty obligations
ignored and violated. II is a time
when the most inconsequeBtial act
Is prone to be exaggerated into one OF
extreme gravity. and IT therefore be
hooves the American government to
keep as sane and cool as IL possibly
can under these constantly recurring
aggravations and seeming provoca-
tons. So far President Wilson has
observed a well balanced self-re-
straint. and Il is not likely that he is
going to act rashly in this provoca-
ton.
OF course Il is an unheard OF thing
that a neutral power has no rights
on the open seas that a belligerent
nation f. bound to respect. II is an
impossible contention. American
shipping not carrying contraband of
war ought to be protected in beiliger-
ent waters. but II Is quite plain that
none OF the belligerents are going out
OF their way to do thisi Under these
circumstances every American com.

Is 1T POLITICAL GRIEVANCE

Some color is lent to the charges
that both Secretary McAdoo and
Comptroller Williams have a polite
al. IL not personal grievance against
the Riggs National Bank OF Washing
ton. which they have subjected to un-
usual annoyances. III certain state
ments made by Golfers Weekly are
true. The spleen OF the Treasury De-
partment is further in evidence I'm a
more drastic use of his powers made
by the Comptroller in demanding
more information from the national
banks OF the country. II is said that
this call for extra information will
prove irritating to the banks, as an
offensive use OF power for the mere
qualification OF the spirit OF vindic-
tiveness. The annoyances of the
Riggs bank are said to spring from a
deep-seated antipathy to it as an in.
stitution that represented big bust
ness" in opposition to Democratic
rule.
IL Is claimed that the animus of
Secretary McAdoo springs from the
fact that several enterprises he pro-
NOTED we're failures financially. owing
10 the opposition OF certain banking
interests. in which the Riggs bank was
not wholly unrelated. The case OF
Comptroller Williams. according TO
Golfers. II similar. lie. too. has pro-
NOTED certain large enterprises witch
more recently have come TO grief.
Rankers associated with his enter
prises ousted him under circum-
stances which he considered gave him
a grievance. About this grievance
he was never reticent. and there are
on record expressions Of his strong
antagonism against large banking in
terests. with certain minor oniciaIs
Of the Treasury appointed by Mr.. Nc
Adoo or Mr.. Williams the case is the
same. This puts a decidedly ugly in
depreciation on the individual acts oil

Comptroller OF the Currency. and
evinces decided hostility to finance
and business. whose political innu.
enoes have been exerted 20 keep the
Democratic party out Of power AZ a

conclusions are correct. We DO not sec
how McAdoo and williams are going
