THE SUBMARINE AS 1T
AFFECTS OUR COUNTRY

The Chicago Tribune makes a
good point with reference to the
submarine.
It calls attention to the fact that
WE may be using the submarines
quite extensively in the future and
We had better go slow in making
rules that might later rise up 20,
plague us.
Here is the Tribune's comment
"A practical consideration of
State policy must deal with our own
interest in the effective employment
of the submarine. Conceding that
We shall not embark upon a war of
conquest, the submarine as an agen-
cy of defense, and one which our
mechanical genius can perfect and
multiply at minimum expense, is
perhaps of greater Importance to us
than to any nation on the globe.
Among the great powers, our least
improbable opponents in future war

would be England. Germany or Jap
an. Each must operate against US
across the sea, establishing i'm posi-
ble. bases in this hemisphere; Eng
land in Canada and her Atlantic is
lands. Germany upon such footing
as she can win, Japan perhaps in
Lower California. This involves
transport of munitions of war across
the sea. If the present situation is
reversed and neutral merchantmen
are employed to keep our enemy re-
plenished, are we bound to forego
the use Of the submarine to inter-
rupt or destroy this current Of sup
ply?
I'm stating our position as to
submarine warfare, let us be care
full lest the hand of the future be
bound by the word Of to-day"

be better for the cause of temper

is but a little over a year old, than
II would be to abandon it at this
time for Statewide prohibition.
There are thousands and thous-
ands of noble temperance workers
who believe as do, and who are to-
day resisting Statewide prohibition
in the interest of temperance, and
are regretting that efforts are being
made to make it an issue during
this campaign"

There is a concerted movement to
introduce into the legislatures of
several States a measure which
shall create the Office of Public De-
fender in each and every county. II
is a more worthy movement than
many that are now being put for
ward for the alleged benefit of the
public This official would be paid
by the State and his official duties
would parallel those of the county
and Commonwealth Attorneys, be-
ing in behalf of the accused. He
would act on the line that every ac-
cused man is supposed to be innocent

seem that the public has as much
right to a defender when one of
their number is accused, as they
would to a prosecutor. The idea
at least deserves logical attention.
