ATTACK MADE By
GERMAN PRESS ON
NOTE IS SCORED
ZElTUNG TAKES THE BERLIN
PRESS TO TASK-STRONC-
LY CONDEMNS ATTACK ON
LANSlNC'S LAST NOTE.

FRANKFORT -ON-THE-MAIN (via
London), Feb. 3-The Frankfurter
Heitung, whose utterances on certain
subjects are regarded as inspired. pub
fishes an article in which vigorous
objection is expressed to the tone
adopted by the press of Berlin in dis
cIssing Secretary Lansing's note of
submarine warfare and the arming of
merchantmen, and in particular to the
statements made in Berlin that the
proposals are unacceptable to Ger
many. 1t dissents from the position
taken by the Kreuz Zeitung and Prof.
Won Stengel that Germany has no in
terest in the negotiations regarding
the freedom of the seas since England
with Americas assistance, is only
using the negotiations to Wrest from
Germanys bands her submarine
-Ee tt4iis-- t+lae- Zait+aass
1T is gross offense, not only
against international law, but against
the most elementary conception OF
good morals to charge openly that
the United States, with which Ger
many is not at enmity, is putting
forth efforts in the sphere of inter
national law merely with the peril
dious purpose of helping England"
The newspaper also condemns
sweeping CONGRATULATIONS drawn
from the Baralong affair and regards
it as ''disgusting" to make capital out
Of the incident, as if it were tyBical
of Great Britain's method of making
war or as if the British government
caused all German seamen who were
captured to be murdered
Turning to the present status of
the Lusitania case, the Zeitung says
it cannot be ignored that the nego-
tiations have taken an unsatisfac-
tory form. "Apprehensions of this
kind" it says, must exist in Ameri-
ca also, as Washington evidently in
tends to dispose of the Lusitania
case at the same time as the general
question of submarine warfare, and
is using the Lusitania case to obtain
Germany's consent on the general
question"
1t hints that this is very objec-
tionable procedure, involving seri-
Gus possibilities.
That people in America are
thinking of bringing the matter to
decision" adds the Zeitung, els
evident from the fact that Mr.. Will
son has sent Col. House to Europe
presumably to obtain certain infor-
nation from belligerents. We hope
that no breach of relations-not to
something worse-may fol
low between Germany and the United
States, but. if the unexpected should
happen, Germany will confront her
new foe as stoutly as she did the
old. But we do not want them to be
lulled by certain jingo heroes of the
writing desk into the illusion that
this foe is not dangerous"
The Frankfurter Zeitung then re-
fers to Germany's excellent military
and to the prospects that
the military resources of thg allies
will be exhausted and that Great
Britain's financial resources will
fail 1t continues:
But all this might change sud
denly-apd that is obviously Eng
lands hope-if the allies secured a
new helper, who would grant un-
limited loans and furthermore make
contributions of a warlike kind by
our present enemies with
all their requirements in ammuni-
ton"

CRIMINAL DOCKET WILL FIRST
Re TAKEN UP IN JUDGE
kRAUSS' TRIBUNAL.

The city court of Brunswick will
meet in regular February session Mon
day morning at 10 o'clock. The ses.

in the past, the court will first begin
on the criminal branch of business.
therefore the criminal docket will be
taken up when the court convenes
Monday morning, and possibly all
cases will be disposed of before civil
work is touched. The criminal bust

permit the prize crew to place bombs
about the liner for defensive pur-
poses. Whatever vessel they were
aboard, it is certain that most of
them were kept below decks.
Until the Germans abandon their
silence in regard to this fight or some
of the officers of the Clan MacTavish
are found, detailed story of this
encounter probably will not be OBJ

British Vice Consul Kenworthy will
disembark all persons entitled to go
ashore here. The British shippers and
their crew, together with most of
the passengers, probably will leave
for New York at the earliest possible
moment to board the first ship out

the Appam This decision was anx-
iously awaited by all but the mem
bers of the German prize crew be-
cause of the indications that the gov
ernment would rule that the Appam
was a prize of war belonging to Ger
many.
Customs Collector Hamilton OK
pressed the opinion that two or three
days would elapse before all entitled
to land were safety ashore.
The Appam was brought to New
port News by request of the German
commander, although government of
ficials preferred to have her moved
to Norfolk. Lieutenant's Berg's rea-
sons for making the request wero not
disclosed.
With the landing of more Of the
passengers further interesting details
of the operations of the mysterious
German sea raider were expected to
be brought to light. Capt. Harrison
of the Appam, who was thought to
have the best story to tell, was de-
tanned aboard with all the members
raised the point that the show Of re-
sistance they hade when captured
forfeited their right to be liberated.
Also kept aboard were twelve Brit
ish subjects believed to be gun point
ers removed from vessels destroyed
by the raider. It is the German CON
tention that the Appam came into
Hampton Roads under the terms of
the Prussian-American treaty which
guarantees her to her captors. The
British view is that the vesse! should
be returned to her ownesr as a prize

Hague convention.
AS Germans and British disagree
on this point they also differ in their
versions of the identity of the raider.
Prince Won Hatzfeldt, an attache of
the German embassy, insists that she
is the German cruiser Moewe, while
all of the British shippers aboard the
Appam who have been interviewed
up to this time declare she is a con-
verted merchantmen of about 5000
tons named Ponga, mounting six
masked guns of near six-inch caliber
and having two torpedo tubes. The
Englishmen believe she is new
boat and that she slipped out of the
Kiel canal early in January.
The stories told of the capture of
the Appam do not differ materially.
Four days out from Dakar, West
Africa. she sighted the German ves-
sci, January Is. She was almost
upon the Appam before Capt. Harri-
son realized the impending danger. A
warning shot across the Appam's
bow caused the liner to stop. The
raiders forecastle had been removed,
exposing a formidable battery.
Few if any of the prisoners taken
with the Appam and the six other
vessels captured before her, witnessed
the so-ca1led battle between the
raider and tn Clane MacTavish on
the evening of January 16. Accord
ing to some of the stories, the Appam
prisoners were aboard the raider,

Louis Brandeis is admittedly one
of the cOuntry's great lawyers. He
is singular, and apart from his class.
because he has a sense of obligation
to society and has refused to sell his
talent to the highest bidder when it
appeared to him that he must betray
society to earn the fee.
Some of the selfish men in his pro-
fessiOn have doubtless resented the
unseIishness Of Brandeis in repeat
edly giving the public his legal seTV-
ice without compensation.
Some lawyers who are for sale to
the highest bidder, even though hired
to make the law OUtwit justice, have
the same hatred for Brandeis that a
prostitute has for a pure woman.
But the hatred of BTandeis is even
more bitter in the craven hearts of
the explOiters who prostitute the
legal profession by hiring the ablest
lawyers to twist the law and trick
justice for the fuTtherance of their
own ends.
They can't forgive a lawyer who
refuses to sell his soul for cold cash,
and they don't want that kind of a
lawyer on the bench Of the supreme
court, where finally is determined
what is law.
But the people of this republic DO
need just such lawyers and men as
Brandeis in their court of last resort,
and now is the time for them to
make as fOrcible as they can the
demand that their servants in the
senate turn their backs on the hired
tools of special privilege and confirm
the appointment of Louis Brandeis.

A BITTER FIGHT ON BRANDEIS
BY N. D. Cochran
The entire legal profession is on
trial before the people of this repub-
lie in the fight of special privilege
against the confirmation of Louis
Brandeis as justice of the United
States supreme court.
The charges against Brandeis are
not that he has betrayed humanity
by selling his services to the highest
bidder, or that he has committed any
crime against the law or society.
The real reason for the bitter op-
position to him appears to be that he
was an honest MAN as well as a good
lawyer, and that in the practice of
his profession he never forgot his
duty to Justice and humanity
1t is humiliating to be forced even
to mention, as another reason for
the hostility to him, the fact that he
is a Jew.
Because of their peculiar educa-
ton lawyers are among the best
fitted for public service. Yet it sell
dom happened that they are good cit
liens in the sense that they employ
their talent for the public good.
There are honorable exceptions to
this rule, but they are few. Lawyers
know it themselves. And the reason
is that the biggest fees come from
the big business interests that thrive
on exploitation Of the public.
