Demand for Retaliation
Grows When Learned
Kaiser Gave o. *.

LONDON, Aug. 2-Ensland is
talking reprisals tonight as result
of the execution of Captain Fryatt OF
the Brussels, convicted, according 10
the view held here, of self-defenSe'
against a submarine.
While newspapers editorially held
the allies could not enter into com
petition in savagery,' nevertheless
feeling ran high that there should
be some retaliation against Germany.
That feeling was increased when IL
became known that the kaiser himself
and his entire council had approved
the sentence imposed by the BrugeS
court martial against the British sea
captain.
1t reached an even higher pitch to-
night when it was announced that
American pleas in Berlin for delay in
the accused captains trial had been
denied.
Urges Action by L. 5.
Sir Edward Grey communicated a
request to American Ambassador
Page here for full information
through the mediation of American
Ambassador Gerard in Berlin, as to
the circumstances of the court mar
tal. Sir Edward in his ccmmuni-
cation said:
"a most serious condition of af-
flirs has arisen, if the German gov
eminent in fact has perpetrated such
crime
Ambassador Page handed to the
foreign office today Il brief report
from Ambassador Gerard. 1t de-
cIared the American ambassador in

sacrifice about him. but merely that his catholic reportorial interest in the drama of characters and events for which Wash lngton is the stage center, under the spot light, and of which the United States is the stage, was the controlling motive of his life. The thorough going reporter. neither a politician looking toward per sonal aggrandizement nor an aspirant for the emoluments and honors of letters, is not a rare type or one of an unknown species. He views careers, and the amb- tious contriving of those who attempt ca reers from the detached point of view of the onlooker who finds such contentment in critical appreciation of the passing show that he neglects to think about a career for himself, at the cost of aban- 6oning contentment with life.
 A boysh wholesomeness coupled with a rare faculty of discernment and keen sense of humor constituted the outward and obvious attributes of a character which at the core was as simple and un- contaminated, amid the surroundings of Pennsylvania avenue and the capitol as that of John Burroughs in his sylvan solitude in the Adirondacks. There was about the man the uncompromising and unassailable decency which David Harum found rare, although the sort of honesty that keeps men out of jail was common. It was because of that, as well as be- cause of the sunnness of disposition based upon it, that Tom" Pence had many respecting friends in newspaperdom and in officialdom.

last few years have been distinguished for their classical attainments. The late Lord Kelvin, the foremost cleo trical engineer of his day, was a nota- ble example of the man of science who, throughout long career of con- structive thinking and constructive engineering, remained loyal to the classics. For a quarter of century or more Germany has led the world in education as we'll as in technological proficiency, and no youth gets through the gymnasium, which cor responds to the average college of English speaking countries, without a stiff course in Latin, with little Greek thrown in for good measure; this in addition to courses in French and English.
 Dr. Flexner doubtless means well, but his radical notions should make little appeal in the realm of cultural progress,

The Tenth District Fight

Captain Hobson and Will Bankhead
 are having a lively battle for con-
 gressional honors in the Tenth dis trict, contest which has already overshadowed all other political cam- paigns in the state, not so much on ac- count of it's importance, as the inter-
 est aroused by the fact that Hobson is again opposing a Bankhead and IS conducting one of his characteristic campaigns. There is a great deal of speculation as to why the redoubtable captain is seeking a seat in the lower House after having been defeated in a race for the Senate, but he is not dis posed to gratify the curiosity of those who are trying to discover what he plans for the future.
 In the meantime both Hobson and Bankhead are making the fur fry" and the voters of the Tenth district have plenty to think and talk about. Hobson is still striking figure in politics, although the man and his methods are familiar to Alabamians, who have heard him deliver many speeches. His long absence from the state has by no means caused him to be forgotten, and the close attention paid to events in the Tenth district just now indicates that he has lost none of his ability to monopolize the spotlight.
 Charges are flying thick and fast and personalities are being indulged in freely, but such things are soon for gotten after the heat of battle passes, except, perhaps, by the principals themselves. If Hobson should be de- feated this time some might think it would mark the close of his political career, but he shows surprising pro- pensity to "come back" regardless of the prophets.

In Stricken Poland

Many countries and provinces have been laid waste by the cruel war, but no appeal for relief is so moving as that from Poland. Every one who can spare dollar should be prompt to respond to the call from that stricken land, no matter upon which side his or her sympathies are enlisted.
 Large sums have been raised for the Polish relief fund, but as long as the war lasts and even after the war the suffering will be acute.
 | The Polish stamp book can be pur- chased for one dollar. The stamp is artistically designed and thousands and hundreds of thousands of Ameri- cans will gladly contribute through this source.
 Paderewski, the renowned pianist, has been devoting his best efforts to the work of raising money for the Polish Victims Relief fund. On the cover of the stamp book is this: ''In the name of Christian charity-in the name of common humanity-some bread for the Polish women and chil- dren." This simple but impassioned appeal is made over the signature of Ignace J. Paderewski. The head quarters of the relief committee are in the Aeolian building, New York.
 Madame Paderewski, chairman o1 the stamp fund, in letter sent tc friends few days ago said, among other things: "We ask your kind CO., operation in our work of trying tt save the lives of the pitiable mother; and children of Poland. They arc dying a slow, tortuous death of starva
 tion and cold, in country where tht
 storm and stress of many battles hay, bereft them of roof and hearth
 Thousands of them stand in line fo hours with the thermometer below
 zero. There are no candles and n, fires"

Duration of the War

There is nothing to indicate just how long the European war will con- tinue, but those observers who are hoping to see it soon ended-and that includes practically everybody-re- mark the changed tone of discussion in the periodical press of Great Britain and France as well as of Germany, and point to the utterances of some of the well known writers as being less bitter and more reasonable than was the case few months ago. This, they say, lends encouragement to the idea that the end of the conflict is not as 1 far off as some of the leaders of the entente had predicted at the beginning of the current year.
 There is more peace talk now than there was even month ago. The en- tente powers feel themselves able to carry on the war indefinitely. The

TOM PENCE, REPORTER

Arthur Krock in the Louisville Courier
 Journal.
 "HE late William Rockhnl Nelson a
 distinguished and successful jour-
 ~ nalist whose eminence in his pro- fession and frequent absence from Kan sas City never prevented him from know ing and appreciating the men engaged in the daiy grind which produces the Kan sas City Star, paid tribute to reporters which frequently has been reproduced.
 Tom Pence of Washington and North Carolina, whose untimely death robbed the democratic national committee of a valuable secretary, and was a bereave- ment to the press gallery, was the type of newspaper man MT. Nelson had in mind when he touched upon the enticements of the calling to men who make good re- porters, and sketched crisply yet compre- hensively the requirements for success.
 Tom Pence was conscientious and in- dustrious rather than ambitious. He was a reporter not because he looked upon the calling as a stepping stone to higher paid employment or to the consolations of prominent citizenship, but because his temperament and talent inclined him to the work. He was called to other service toward which he did not shape his course. He was without the aims and objects of the professional office seeker, as completely as he was without the airs and graces of the class whose secret slo- gan is "self first" This does not mean that there was a halo of saintship and self

''I was very much interested to learn of the very handsome offer made by w. D. Smith, president of the Birming- ham Baseball association said w. C. Radcliffe, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, ''in which he pledged half of Birmingham's share of the gen eral admissions at Redwood Field on the opening day over 10000. This will go to the fund now being raised to entertain the Confederate reunion here next month.
 "While the canvassing committee has been hard at work the results have not been up to our anticipations ano the news of this aid from an uneX- pected source is most grateful.

THE PARASITE WOMAN

as a matter of right. He may earn 1t; but he earns it because she keeps the house; and she has just as much right to it as he has. This is not a hostile right; 1t is a right which it is every woman's duty to ask and which it should be every mans pride and pleasure to give without asking. He is poor creature II ne grudges it; and she in her turn is a poor creature if she does not insist upon her rights, just exactly as she is worse than poor creature if she does not do her duty.
 There are professional feminists and so- called womans rights women who, cur iously enough, seem to accept so mucn of this male attitude as implies that the partner who earns the money is the su- peror partner and that therefore the woman. who is physically weaker than the man, should accept as her primary duty the rivaling of him in money-mak- ing business; and they stigmatize as par asites the women who do the one great and all-essential work, without which no other activity by either sex amounts to anything.
 Apply common sense and common de- cency to both attitudes. It is entirely right that any woman should be allowed to make any career for herself of which she is capable, whether or not it is career followed by man. She has the same right to be a lawyer, a doctor. farmer or storekeeper that the man has to be a poet, an explorer, 8 politician or a painter. There are women whose pecu- liar circumstances or whose peculiar at tributes render it advisable that they should follow one of the professions named, just as there are men who can do most good to their fellows by follow ing one of the careers above indicated for men. More than this. It is indispens- able that such careers shall be open to women and that certain women shall follow them, if the country itself, expect any development. In just the same way. it is indispensable that some men shall be explorers artists, sculptors, literary men. politicians if the country is to have it's full life. Some of the best farmers arc women just as some of the best ex ploring work and scientific work has been done by women. There is a real need for a certain number of women doctors and women lawyers. Whether a writer or painter or a singer is a man or a woman makes not the slightest difference, provided that the work he or she does is good

Spring Has Arrived

Spring is here,' declared Capt. M. J Donlin of the Ensley police precinct. T know it because of a complaint which received this afternoon. A lady called me up and informed me that her neigh bor's chickens were playing havoc with her garden which had just been planted This is a sure sign, as infallibIe as the reviving of the marble games among small boys.
 The lady in question somewhat heat edly demanded that the chickens be ar- rested and locked up in the city jail. l was unable to gratify her request for fear of the effect 1t would have on our colored population The Ensley jail has been used as a hotel apartment municipal lodg- ing house and number of other things, but this is the first time I have found anyone trying to make it a henhouse.
 Should I have granted her request I am afraid l would have had difficulty in preventing negroes from breaking into the bastile."
 City ordinances provide for the arrest of owners of chickens whose fowls stray off the premises and cause damage to lawns and gardens, and Captain Donlin has instructed his men to enforce the law

The Augusta Chronicles Plans

The Augusta Chronicle, whose splendid newspaper plant was recently destroyed by fire, announces that It will soon have a new home in Augusta, at 737-739 Ellis street. The building will be three stories high, will be de- voted entirely to the activities of the Chronicle and will be equipped with one of the finest publishing plants in the south. The Chronicle thus departs from the policy of "sky-scraper" newspapers, which occupy only small part of the tall buildings which bear their names. The former building was one of the highest structures in Au- gusta.
 While work on the new building and plant is being pushed forward as rap idly as possible, the Chronicle will continue to be published in the plant of the Macon News, which it has been using since the destructive fire in Au- gusta. The pluck and enterprise shown in getting out its regular edi- tions in another city with borrowed plant have been highly commended, as we'll as the courtesy of the Macon News, which makes the feat possible every morning.
 During the 131 years of it's exist ence the Chronicle has met with prac- tically every misfortune that could befall a newspaper, including war, pestilence, fire and flood, but it has risen each time undaunted and is again showing the unconquerable spirit which has kept it in the front rank of southern newspapers for so many wears,
