THE GERMAN VIEW.
By Hugo Won Kliest.

The State Department recently
cancelled the passports of two
American citizens in Berlin because
they had criticized the policy of the
Administration. This action calls
for a Congressional investigation
Since when has the State Depart
ment the power practically to annul
the rights of American citizens?
The two men are said to have de-
clared that on account of the ship
ment of implements of murder from
the United States, they were asham-
ed for their American citizenship.
Can we blame them for beingasham-
ed for their country in view Of the
long trains of soldiers wounded and
MANNED by American bullets? Can
we blame them for being ashamed
of their government in view of the
host of weeping women and children
who might parade the streets with
placards bearing the legend: Wild
ows and Orphans Made in the Unit
ed States
New citizens renounce their al
legiance to their former individual
sovereigns. King George, Car Mich
olas. Emperor William, as the case
may be, but do not swear allegiance
to the President of the United
States, but to the United States, the
country, and the ideals on which it
is founded. Instead of exchanging
sovereigns. King George, I or in
stance, with Car Nicholas, they are
accepted into the company Of SOW
ereign people, and themselves be-
come sovereigns. Russian who is
naturalized in the United Kingdom
or in Canada becomes a subject of
King George. The royal sovereign
ty in Great Britain may be only a
weak survival of the past and the
people exercise most of its rights.
The fact, however, remains that
every Englishman, and Canadian
and Australian is subject OWNS
absolute allegiance to his king,
while every citizen Of the United
States is free man and member
of sovereign people.

THE ALLIES VIEW
By Albert w. Bryce

Germany in the case of the Ameri-
can ship William P. Frye, destroyed
at sea like Great Britain in its in
reference with American ships and
corgoes destined to neutral ports, is
not meeting the demands of the
United States with the candor that
might be expected of a friend.
So far as the FRYE is concerned,
Germany has confessed judgment. 1t
comedies it's libility to the owners
Of the ship 1t admits that the COM
mander who sent it to the bottom
violated treaties now in force. There
is no dispute except as to the meth
cd of determining the amount of the
indemnity. Germany insists upon
referring the matter to it's own
prize court. We insist upon settle
ment by the processes of diplomacy.
With so many more important is
sues pending, it would appear that
with good faith on both sides this
dispute might be adjusted easily and
quickly. On the basis of treaties and
international law. Secretary Lansing
has made a convincing presentation
of the American contention, but I'M
happily, treaties and law have little
force nowadays with the European
belligerents. Even when they pro-
cessedly admit their errors and ac-
knowledge their responsibility, they
haggle over details, and thus persist
in the wrong.
In the Presidents latest note to
Germany, now in the hands of the
German Foreign Office, he declares
in so many words that, in believing
the Lusitania to have been an arm
ed vessel, the German Government
was "misinformed."
The Presidents assurance was
based upon the report of the United
States officials whose responsibility
for thestrictly neutral attitude of
this nation bound them to ascertain
the character of the Lusitania's fit
tings and cargo before she sailed
from this port.
At the oBard Of Trade inquiry in
to the loss of the Luisitania, which
began recently in London, the first
point brought out was that the
Luistania was not armed and that
she was never fitted out as trans
port. The commander of the vessel
declared under oath that the ship
was not armed either for offense
or defense, and that she carried no
masked guns.
The word of the United States
Government needed no Endorsement
Yet confederation from the Lusi-
tania's captain may have an effect
upon some minds on both sides of
the Atlantic.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY HONORS

Lyman L. Gage, noted financier
and former Secretary of the Treas
urN of the United States, was born
in Madison county, New York, in
1886, and at the age of nine began
his career as an Office boy in a bank
in Oneida. In 1855 he went to Chi
cago and his first employment in the
western metropolis was clerk in a
planning mill. This he soon gave up
to accept position as clerk in a
bank, realizing that the business of
finance was a his real vocation.
From the position of clerk he rose

Val Wilkie, the best quarter miller
that ever represented Yale Univer-
sity in track athletics, has retired
from the running games forever.
Wilkie has run some brilliant races
for his college and could always be
relied upon to show around 40 sec
onds for the quarter when in con-
dition. His best race was in the re-
cent Harvard-Yale meet when he
and Wilcox ran such a slashing race,
which was won by the Harvard run
ner by two yards in As seconds. In
addition to being a great athlete he
is one of the most gentlemanly fell
lows ever known to the athletic
game and will be greatly missed
