J When DR.. Dumba calls his fellow
eountrymen who are employed here
."white slaves" and refers to them
as being poor and oppressed, work
ing ten hours a day, we wonder what
the conditions were in Austria
Hungary that let so many of that
nationality to come here. Does DR..
Dumba insinuate that they could
fnd work at home under more fav-
prable conditions and with better
pay than they receive here? If so,
why do they keep on coming? Sure
1y those already here could warn
those about to come if it was more
advantageous to stay home.

is about time to call halt and this
the President has effectively done in
asking for the recall of the Austria
Hungary ambassador who has ad-
mitted his part in endeavoring to
interfere in our domestic affairs.
DIR. Dumba would cause strikes
and labor disturbances in American
Industries. He has proven himself
decidedly unacceptable to the United
States government. He cannot be
recalled too quickly. If he is not
recalled he should be handed his
passports as a notice to Europe that
the United States is not to be bullied
no matter how the neutral nations
elsewhere may be treated
By this action, however, the
United States is not severing friend
ly relations with the Austrian
Hungarian government. We assume
the position that the officials at
Vienna were not aware of the doings
of their representative here and
would not approve of them any more
than they would approve of foreign
representative at Vienna interfering
with the domestic affairs of the dual
monarchy. Dr. Dumba has exceeded
all bounds of a foreign ambassador
and if we are to respect ourselves,
let alone command respect through
out the world, we must be rid of
him.
OF course, if the Austrian
Hungarian. government chooses to
defend the action of their ambassa-
dor here a different and more seri-
Gus situation arises. In that case 1t
would appear that AustriaHungary
was trying to extend its control over
the private affairs of the United
States. If Austria-Hungary were
permitted to do that and to call
strikes at the ammunition plants, 1t
would be just as reasonable for the
British government to import strike
breakers from Canada, and we would
have a pretty mess of the war in
Europe being fought over again on
our soil along industrial lines. The
only thing to do is to nip the scheme
in the bud. This the President has
done Every loyal citizen is with
him to a man.

SAVE THIS $4,000.

of state money now at the disposal
of the Board of Commerce and
Navigation for the construction of a
waterway between Barnegat bay and
Manasquan river will not be wasted
after all. President ]. Spencer
Smith is quoted as saying that as
this money was appropriated for this
special purpose it will be spent for
that work although it was admitted
before the work is started that it
will not be nearly enough to see the
project through.
It seems, however, that there has
been in every appropriation bill
passed in several years provision
to prevent departments, boards and
commissions from involving the
state in obligations not contemplat-
ed by the legislature. This is in
addition to the amendment of the
crimes act passed in 1914, which
makes it a misdemeanor on the part
of "any person or persons, board Or
body charged with or having the
control of any state office, depart
ment or institution" who "shall in
cur obligations in excess of the ap-
preparation and limit of expenditure
provided by law for the purposes" !"
for which such appropriation is
made.
The section in the appropriation
bills which has been referred to is
more specific and requires the COVER
nor to act. 1t is provided that be-
fore any public work for the cost of
which money is appropriated shall
be started 'the plans, specifications
and contracts necessary for the en-
tire completion thereof shall be sub
mitted to and approved by the gov
ernor and such contracts shall not
be approved or entered into if the
total expenditure under all the con-
tracts necessary to entire completion
of such building, buildings or work,
according to such plans and specii-
cations, shall exceed the amount
appropriated"
This being the case the $4,000
ought not to be uselessly spent.
While we are enthusiastic advocates
of waterways, we do not believe in
squandering the taxpayers money on
projects that are of little value or
that mean nothing when completed.
Either enough money should be at
hand to finish the work or the
$4,000 should be saved.
In view of the fact that the United
States government has baked on
keeping the Manasquan inlet opened
for shipping the state should go
slow in it's operations in that direc-
ton. 1t stands to reason that any
shipping along our coast that reach |
es Manasquan in a storm will prefer
to risk the dangers of Barnegat and
go on to the Delaware rather than
to approach the shore to
get into the inland waterway at
This waterway project along our
coast is useless for general shipping
until it Is connected with the
To do this will require
of dollars and, with the ship
canal across the state being con
we do not believe the ex-
penditure Is warranted at this time. !

WANTS CoNsULs WITHDRAWN.
Germany Notifies G. s. That Consuls
Must be Acceptable to Governor.

Secretary Bryan had before him FOR
consideration the formal notification
from Germany that American consuls
in Belgium must be acceptable to the
German military authorities and ask
ing for the withdrawal Of certain con-
suls for the present at least. The
United States now has consular repre-
sentatives only in Brussels, Antwerp,
Liege and Ghent. Since the war broke
out they have been engaged chiefly IN
looking after refugees and aiding in
relief work, as there was little regu-
lar work to do.
Although the text Of the commun1-
cation has not been made public, 1t is
believed in official circles to be SINH
lar to the one sent Argentina and
other neutral countries, and that,
while the Berlin government is not
insistent that consuls in Belgium take
out new exequaturs from German OFF,
cials, it announces that such consuls
must perform their duties only by
permission from the military author
tiles controlling the territory in which
the consulate is located.
