Help for the Nuns of Rheims.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: am sure that many Of your readers,
not only those familiar with the work OF
rhackeray, but those who are also admirers
Of the work of his daughter, will be glad 70
see this extract from letter which nave
Just received from Lady Richie, and, more
over, 10 respond to the modest appeal when
she makes. She says:
"a friend OF mine who spent last winter
with me has told me Of a convent at Rheims
20 which she used 10 go, the nuns or when
went out TO nurse the wounded soldiers, pom
French and German, who had been shell
tered in the Cathedral. When the bombs
burst over it three Of these nuns and
some of their patients we're killed. Those
who we're unhurt, aided by priests, carried
away the wounded who remained. The con-
vent was nearly destroyed, but, the Kitchens
and the hot water pipes having escaped the
Sisters then founded an '9uyre.' as they
called IT, where they received hundreds OF
the wearied soldiers from the trenches out
side Rheims. They washed the soldiers and
their muddy clothes. and did so much darn
inc and mendirg that they often sat up
through the night to get the work done. one
Sister. Sour Gabrielle. has written 10 my
friend the most beautiful and simple letters,
which go to ones very heart, for the Sisters
live from hand to mouth, and the men con-
tinue to pour in for these humble services.
"When | began 10 write to you did not
think Of asking anything, but II any one IL
America would care 20 send small sum tor
the use OF the 'euvre' | would gratefully
forward il TO Rheims TO aid the work de-
scrbed With kind remembrance and true
thanks for all you say and show OF sympa-
thv from America, believe ME, sincerely
yours, Anne Richie
may add that Lady Ritchie's permanent
address is St. Leonard's Terrace, Chelsea,

Time for Work, Not Talk.

Though the methods Of the Thompson
committee have not been the kind to com
mend it thoroughly to public confidence, 1t
is now engaged in certain Investigations
which should be completed. Either there
was or there wasn't big slush fund con-
cealcd in those contracts for third-track-
ing the elevated. 1t is in the public inter
est to have the matter settled beyond a
peradyenturc.
The legislative leaders have decided to
grant an extension of the life of this com
mittce sufficiently long TO permit 1t with
reasonable diligence to complete It's IN
quiry. Now the committee should settle
down to work. Senator Thompson should
stop talking vaguely about crime and OK
pose it, if he knows anything about 1t.
Under such happy conditions. whatever
could be expected from legislative interven-
ton may be accomplished to help the city
in its transit mudde.

Justifying Piracy.

There Is nothing whatever in the in
structions received from Berlin by the
German Embassy to indicate that the For
eign Office is disposed to modify the con-
duct of the submarine campaign which
opens to-day. 1t appears, indeed. from the
summary given out in Washington, that
the German Government is prepared to
discuss the status Of armed merchantmen,
but il is TO be presumed that the command
ers have already received their orders.
According to an announcement given out
by Count Bernstorff at the eleventh hour,
these orders provide that mo enemy mer-
chairman is 20 be torpedoed without warn
ing unless the presence Of armament on
board such vessel is proved" From this
cnigmatical assurance the conclusion has
been drawn that the proof of the exist
ence Of such guns would lie in their use in
resistance" There is not the least reason
for this assumption, which necessarily in
wolves the belief that Germany has entirely
abandoned her original contention. In
deed, the clause would be meaningless were
this Interpretation correct, for il is mani
fest that merchant vessel Offering active
resistance could not be unwarned. IL may
be recalled that in the note OF May % last
the German Minister Of Foreign Affairs
held that his government had sufficient
proof that guns were mounted in the Lusi-
tania, and, though this contention was
Ultimately abandoned, it is extremely un-
likely that the submarine commanders
have been ordered ~ wait for offensive
action on the part Of their prey.
Germany has made il plain that even the
llghtest armament must be regarded as Of
fcnsiyc because Of the fragility Of the sub

No Chance.
,r OF The Tribune.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The suggestion OF Mr.. Rowland that
the philippines be traded for the British
West Indies is interesting. As Britishcr
who has had an opportunity recently of see
ing things in that part of the world, can
assure the gentleman from Florida that it
has not the ghost OF chance.
In the first place, although geographic
position and trade interests make them es-
sentially American, the spirit OF patriotism
and love Of empire fostercd by England
through a system OF government at least
tolerable, completely utilities any weight the
first named factors might have in favor OF
the proposition.
The British West Indian population, rough
~. amounts TO some 100000, mostly negroes
Of an educated and progressive type. The
reputation the United States has gained in
governing people Of this stock has not at
all been enhanced by the stories of oppres-
sion and injustice which have been widely
circulated among them.
West Indians aspire TO self-goyernmen,
within the empire or independence under
United States protection. and | feel con
WINGED that they will never. anyhow, become
n possession Of tho United States.

Wives Are People.

Justice Shearn's decision awarding Gus
todv of child to its mother in accord
ance with a contract made between the
separated parents means that wives have
come TO be peoplc-individuals
Though there are laws in this state which
give wives an advantage-in the protec-
ton of their property against hus-
bands, for instance-there are survivals,
in statute and Interpretation. by which
the wife's legal identity has been merged
with that of the husband.
"But the world has moved as the
learned Justice remarked. If the wife
may make contract as to possession of
a child which will stand, she may also
make a contract with her husband about
the retention of the wages she earns. She
may make contract regarding pay for
her services in the home. In fact, with
this right duly and legally recognized, and
a certain amount of ingenuity and ma
nipulative ability-which no woman lacks
the modern wife need not greatly fear
the practical operation of laws which dis
criminate against her sex, even if she OPP
poses them vigorously as a matter of
theoretical right and justice.
Wives are people. No husband has ever
really doubted it; but it is, after all, an
advance for the law and the courts to
the fact.

Has Warded Off War.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is most regrettable that your IN
teresting and intelligently conducted news
paper should give itself up 20 such petty
and, in point of political value, uninhuenc-
ing attacks upon the President as are rcgu-
larry appearing in one column or another OF
the daily issues OF The Tribune.
When a public man like Root can make an
abusive address that is professional, eva
sive and war-threatening to a group OF self
seeking politicians 1t is manitesuy c!ear
that the Republican party cannot make out
n case from among its own political lead
ers. but is compelled to call IN an adroi'
LAWYER to build up an artificial lrief for IT,
Mr.. Wilson's Administration has been sue
cessfully constructive. 1t has warded on
war and kept up prosperity. Whatever his
minor mistakes. his accomplishments stand
ont 70 his credit in bold relief, and II ne is
to be the Democratic candidate ne VIII on
such a record be elected to moral certainty.

Peace at the Others Price.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: We who condemn the advocate of
peace mt all costs are not BIASED by senti-
mcnt. A sane view Of affairs, logic and
analogy compel us TO show neither respect
nor patience TO the peace theorist. Ideals
will sooner be attained If VIC drop our blind
enthusiasm and deal sanely with life's ex-
pcrience.
Peace at any price means peace at the
othor mans price. People Of principle and
honor will not sacrifice their respect and
forfeit worthy cause at such an exorbitant
cost. When man says he is for peace at
all hazards he is simply telling his hearers,
in another way. that some day they inay have
to fight and argue for him. That is why
Fo-d and others are the disgrace OF the
times. Il is not possible that these men are
ignorant: the alternative. suggested by Mr..
Roosevelt, Is more probable they are insin-
core.
| am proud 70 have a father who, in 1861,
al tender age, did not believe in peace at
any price. have an uncle, also, who saw
that words and time we're not the things
with which TO pamper cause such as
brought on the Civil War. He now lies in
bed, dying, and in the quiet hours of the
night he raves Of Gettysburg, Fort Schuyler
and Charleston.
Even though the world were st peace, we
should prepare. Laws grow with the growth
ahl change with the habits and customs OF
leople No man knows when the laws of
one nation will conflict with another. No
man knows when some nation will become
imrusive and run riot. r. ever a breach
comes. we should he adequately prepared.
Then there will be less likelihood of an en-
cmy's attempting 20 outrage all that is
sacred 10 us THEODORE MICHEL.

Municipal and International Law
TO the Editor of The Tribune.

o the EDITOR OF ne / rlDunc.
Sir: II il argued in your editorial this
morning, entitled "a Dishonorable Proposal
with reference to Germany's reply to this
governments second demand for a disavowal
OF the Lusrania incident, as follows:
"(Germany) will not acknowledge the VIC
lation of law incident to sinking a passenger
steamer without warning. But she will re-
gret the loss of American lives and declare
that there was no intent on her part TO kill
citizens OF the United States. What does
this mean? Just this: A gunman shooting
into house of an enemy and killing the
tenant, not the owner whose life he sought,
would naturally regret the accident and will
ingly acknowledge that he had not intended
TO STAY the tenant. But would this in any
way justify the crime? Under municipal RS
contrasted with international law would the
murderer escape punishment? OF course not
whether the owner or the tenant was his
victim
To carry this illustration little further
the gunman repeats that he is very sorry the
accident happened and offers to pay the ten
ants legal representatives full money COM
pensation for his death and deliver most
explicit written apology, but he says: 81 shall
not admit that what did was an illegal act y
Then you will have to hang" is the reply.
Isn't this the necessary conclusion Of The
Tfibunes analogy. J. q. 7.
