"The Presidents note to Germany in February last

subsequent note has represented nothing but weakness and

difficulties in consequence of the war.

The Standard Oil Company has large

Element of the Submarine,

More important than all. perhaps, is
the element of the submarine. Subma-
rines were never heard of when most
or the international law now in use
was made. 1 might illustrate the point
by something 1 read the other day
with reference to automobile speed
laws. a man was supposed to have in
vented an automobile that could travel
zoo miles an hour. He was driving il
through a district where the speed
law prohibited his travelling more than
twenty miles an hour. This remarkable
new automobile Travelled at the one
rate OF 200 miles an hour 1t couldn't
travel any slower, with the kind of an
engine it had. The traffic policeman. as
soon as the driver had started at his
2OO-mile-an- hour speed, tried to halt
him, and the driver came back and
they had a talk. The driver said. T
cant travel at a less rate than 200
miles an hour. That's the way this
machins-.is built
But said the traffic policeman. the
law says automobiles must not travel
more than twenty miles an hour
Then you will be obliged to change
the law, the driver said. You will
have to have new kind of law for
this new kind of automobile
The point seemed to be that the sub
marine is a new kind of a ship. and
that there will have to be new kinds
of international law for it,

NEW YORK, August 2l.-Subdued en-
sengers and crew of the steamship New
York when the liner sailed at noon for

tween those departing, and friends
gathered to see them away, and tears
were more plentiful than usual. The
final count of the passengers showed

International Law Remade.
High Naval Officer Saws

An interesting story was told yester-
day by a high United States naval
ofhcer in connection with the general
public discussion of the Lusitania and
Arabic cases and Germany's submarine
warfare policy. The officer in question
deals with some of the problems that
come before the Navy Department
which are based upon law questions,
and. although he cannot be quoted.
like all other American naval officers,
he has a wide knowledge Of interna-
tional law.
Il have noticed" the officer said.
that people have been talking a lot
lately, at least since Germany's sub
marine warfare began, about what they
call Germany's violation of the rules
of International law
In this connection it must not be
forgotten that new precedents in in
ternational law are being constantly
set during this war in Europe. Great
wars and great peace conferences have
changed international law, from the
time the world began. In a way, one
might say that international law is
now being remade. This is true not
only of German policies, but of the
policies of all the countries at war
There are a number of new elements
in this war which are remaking inter-
