GREAT DIPLOMATIC VICTORY
SAYS THE BRITISH PRESS

London.-The United States not
peace, but has won a diplomatic vic
tory Of historic Importance in Undue
ing Germany to modify her submar-
inc methods, the Daily News declared
in a striking editorial today.
Both the News and the Standard
accepted the view that Germany is
sincere in her latest representations
to Washington and intends not only
to disavow the Arabic attack, but to
promise that no more passenger-car-
rying ships will be torpedoed.
1T is not, Of course, a great achieve
ment in itself for a powerful govern
ment to extract from a still nominally
friendly people an assurance that
they will not murder any more of it's
Subjects" said the News, "but it is
a considerable feat to have broken at
last what is claimed in Germany to
be the only law by which the action
of the government and the people
could be guided.
There is not the slightest reason
to suppose that Mr.. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg sanctioned this attack or de-
sired to acerbate the relations with
America. The sinking of the Arabic
may be assumed to have been the
malignant trick of his opponents, the
I.irpitzites, planned as much to en-
barrass him as to- drive America to
action"
The News said that possibly the
submarine which sank the Arabic was
later sunk by British warships and
that for this reason it is easy for
Germany to disavow the act Of the
U boat commander.

tried, however insuficiently, to pro

officers and enlisted men have put all
good Americans under a fresh debt
by what they have done in connec
ton with this camp; and We owe
much to the private citizens who have
advanced the money without which
the camp could not have been held
But you men have had to buy your

money in so different ways; in other
words, you have had to pay for the

Teddy Pounced on

With Two Big Feet

Colonel Roosevelt recently deliV-

Of soldiers. There must not be any
opportunity given at Plattsburg or
any other similar camp declares the
secretary of war, "for any such un-
fortunate occurrences" Colonel
Roosevelt's remarks, in the main, are
printed below and show that he most
ded,sively disapproves Of American
inactivity regarding preparations for
possible contingencies, and that he is
even inclined to criticise Americas
failure to deal more vigorously with
the submarine question as it may af-

Roosevelt is anything but pro-German

Colonel Roosevelt said, In part:
Free citizens should be allowed to
do their own fighting. The profession
