move slowly in shaping up any
course of action.
1t is true the ally version is
that the German claim is false
and there are abundant pro
ally newspapers in this coun.
try shouting for a break with
Germany. But the United
States government does not
need any mental assistance
from the allies or from the pro
allies, Our government is ca
pable of forming its own opin-
ions and is in better position
than anyone else to hear both
sides of the argument and form
a Just and impartial conclu-
sion. 1t may be taken for
granted this will be done and
it is also a fair assumption that
when the facts are all at hand
they will show that if liars ex-
list in Europe they do not all
reside within the kaiserland.

THOSE LIQUOR SHIP.
MENTS

~ HERE is no particular sig.
W nificance in the fact Ii
quor shipments into this
county during the month OF
March were heavier than in
January and February. This
was to be expected because
most liquor using people had
secured supplies before the sa-
looms went out of existence,
those supplies now being ex-
hausted in many cases.
The figures show that a to-
tai of $40 people in this coun-
ty had liquor shipped to them
during March. This is a small
percentage when it is consid-
cred Umatilla county has over
10000 inhabitants.
The prohibition law will moi
be broken down by the ship
ment of liquor to people for
their own use. The danger
arises from bootlegging. If
people are allowed TO carry on
liquor sales, prohibition
will be discredited to the ex.
tent the practise is permitted.
If the law is enforced prohi-
bition will be a success and the
constitutional amendment will
be repealed.

THE S DENIAL

~ HE German note on the
W Sussex case presents the
Teutonic side of the af-

specific denial that the Sussex

rine.

much talked of tension between
the United States and Ger
many, if such tension exists.
