CLAIMS DESCENT
FROM POCAHONTAS.

A descendant of Indian royalty Will
be the First Lady of the Land.
Mrs. Norman Gait, who will be-
come Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, is proud
of the fact that she is descendant,
in the ninth generation, from the mar
riage of John Rolfe and Pocahontas'
the Indian princess and the British
saved Captain John Smiths life when
the English colonist was to have'
been killed at her fathers orders.
R. w. Boiling brother to Mrs. Gait
confirms the family's descent from
the Indianprinces and the British
coloaist, Rolfe. He said the family
had always taken great pride in
their lineage.
Mrs. Gait, therefore, will bring to
the White House, when she becomes
the wife of the President, the first
stain of Indian blue blood that the
historic Executive Mansion mas ever
known.
Literally. she is an Indian princess,
by descent, and can rightfully claim
royal blood in her VEINS.
Adam means red or ruddy, and ar
cheologists have suggested that the
first pair placed in the Garden Of
Eden were what we call Indians,
or aborigines Of this continent. In
hygone days many persons in Vir-
ginia believed they were descended
from Pocahontas. Some of those VINO
claimed kindship to the Indian prin-
cess lived in Alexandria.

SAUNDERS ON
PREPAREDNESS

"Can you tell me why, if this coun-
try considered itself safe fifteen mon
tbs ago = and you did not hear any
yell about preparedness then = it
should consider itself so unsafe now?'
This was the answer Judge Edward
Saunders, Of Rocky Mount, member
of Congress from the Fifth Virginia
district. made to question, as to the
Judges attitude in the preparedness
propaganda.
81 cannot see the reason for 1t all, y
said Judge Saunders, "and certainly
do not propose to support any meas
ure to spend millions for preparedness

FLEA OF
NECESSITY.

During the RuSSo-JapaneSe wal Ine
Arabia, neutral vessel, with cargo
of American products which might
have been declared conditionally con-
traband, was seized by Russian war
ship and condemned and contlscated.
The captor offered no proof that the
lading was destined for military uses
by Russia's enemy, but claimed, and
was sustained in his claims by the
Prize Court at Vladivostok, that the
destination of the vessel being a hos
tile port, and cargo being capable
eli being used for military purposes
the intent to so use it might be pre-
sumed. Accordingly the lading was
pronounced contraband and declared
forfeited. A protest from John Hay,
then Secretary of State, resulted IN
immediate relief. Not only was the
verdict annulled and ship and cargo
released, but neutral commerce IN all
commodities not demonstrably contra
band thenceforward remained unmo-
Tested by the Russians.
The Philadelphia Record in COM
menting on the above says:
Belligerent nations have travelled far
on the path Of lawlessness since then.
The British Government In particular
though it yociferously denounced the
principle applied by the Russian Prize
Court in the matter of the ARABIA ana
similar eases, has adopted the anaf-
chic ruling as it's own. 1t has gone
even further, and through its Prlze
Court has made pronouncements
which under conditions of less graVl-
ty might be called grotesque:. When
goods are sent to neutral country IN
excess of the latter's norman require
ments. it is held that an ultimate nos
tile destination may be assumed.
When nation is organized for de-
tense so that everybody is In some
way contributing toward this end all
the people must be regarded as form
ing part of the military establish
ment; or. if possible shortage of the
food supply cause the Government to
husband supplies and regulate the
consumption and distribution thereof,
all breadstuffs and provisions destin-
ed for that country must be regarded
as military supplies. Lastly, when
shipments of such goods are made
from a neutral country to another
neutral country, the burden OF prov
ing that they are not destined for
belligerent use is on the shipper.
1t is on grounds so flimsy as these
to say nothing Of the Illegally Of the
proceeding, that upward of $12,OOO,0OO
worth Of American meat products has
been confscated by the British Gov.
ernment while en- route from United
States to Denmark, Sweden and Nor
way. The value of American products
restrained from the export by the fear
of seizure is inestimable. but pro-
badly runs up into hundreds Of mil
lions. This Government has hitherto
been able to get no other response to
it's protests against this embargo of
American commerce except the fee
ble excuse that necessity know no law.
This plea has not been accepted as
valid in our controversy with another
belligerent Power, and it will not, and
surely should not, be accepted as suffi-
cient from Great Britain.
