International Inv .


FAIRMoNT, Neb May a.-To the
Editor OF The Bee: There are certain
rules Of action which, from time to time
as civilization has developed. have been
adopted, prescribed. aoquiesced IN and
approved by all the civilized nations o.
the world, prescribing and limiting their
conduct towards each other in times OF
peace and OF war, and vesting (or rather
proclaiminO certain rights i'm them.
These rules are called international law,
because they are OF force between ma
tons: hence they cannot be abrogated.
changed or added TO by any nation, no
matter what the necessity or exigency
may be; for to be International and
binding upon the other nations they must
have been established by and acquisced
in by the other nations.
One Of these rules IL that the coast of
any nation for a distance out in the
ocean for three miles partakes Of the
neutral character OF that nation; this is
called the three-mile limit.
Another rule is that. outside of this
limit the ocean is free to all nations of
the world for their vessels and their
citizens, whether their citizens are on
their own neutral vessel or that OF
another nation, either neutral or beilig-
erent
Another rule is that this freedom OF
the ocean can be interfered with only i'm
time Of war and by blockading the ports
OF q beliRerent by the vessels of his
enemy. and this must be by vessels on
the surface of the ocean The blockade
must be visible and effective. so-called
war zone" outside the ,three-mile limit,
and a so-calied blockade by submarines
IL unknown to and contrary to interna-
tional law. and whoever undertakes II lie
a wrongdoer and violatOr Of interna-
tional law; and who proclaims blockade
on paper and not actually and visibly
around the ports OF the enemy, and
seizes neutral vessels under IL, Is
wrongdoer and violator Of international
Law.
II thus appears that in the above par
ticulars both Germany and England are
violators OF international law. Hence.
Germany, in proclaimnig a war zone
and attacking by alrships OF submarines
neutral vessels or belligerent merchant
vessels having neutral citizens ON board
without providing for their safety, and
irrespective of the cargo, is a wrong
doer and no amount of warning to do an
unlawful act can make the doing of 1t
right or afford any justification for doing
II. 1t appears that England. under the
paper blockade. in Selling. on the open
sea, neutral vessels destined for a neutral
port Is a wrongdoer and such seizure Is
without justification.
Hence, 1t becomes the duty of our gov
eminent and the other neutral nations
OF the world to protest against these vio-
lations and cause them 20 cease.
In judging the acts of the warning ma
lions In Europe. It would be we'll for our
people to make application Of these
principles of International law and uphold
our president In his efforts to enforce
them. N. NJ. PUSEY.

Do You Read Labels?

Domestic science teachers and
food authorities are urging the
housewife to carefully read the
labels on all food articles.
The National Pure Food Law
oompe1s food manuf acturers to
print the ingredients Of their
products on the label, and in this
way enables consumers to distin-
guish hea1thfu1 foods from those
which may be de1eterious.
Htgh-grade baking powders are
made Of pure cream OF tartar,
derived from grapes. Royal Bak-
ing Powder is type Of the highest
grade. It IS hea1thfu1 beyond
doubt and the safest and best
to uses
The 1ow-grade baking powders
are made from alum, mineral acid
salt. Most phys ioians condemn
their use in food.
Consumers can learn the char
acter Of the baking powder by
referring to the label, which
must state whether the cont ents
include cream OF tartar, alum OF
