cruise and the novelty has created en-
thusiasm among the followers of both
types of yachts.
The committee has arranged a very
interesting program. 1t is made up of
short daily runs so arranged that the
yachtsmen all will be at anchor in
plenty of time to allow them to take
part in shore sports. In the case of
a calm, the motor boat fleet will be
used to tow the sailing craft to the
ure of the week will be racing among
the new forty footers of the New
York Yacht Club. Twelve yachts
compose the division. They were built
during the winter and form the star
class of the season. 1t will be the first
opportunity of their owners to try
out the new craft in cruising trim.
The American Canoe Association has
also planned for an innovation in con-
nection with the international meet,
open to all amateur canoeists in the
United States and Canada, at Sugar
Island, August to IL of this year. 1t
will be the first meet open to all am

Justice Hughes Reply.

/ Washington dispatches this morning
contain the most authoritative and dis
eliminating statement of Mr.. Justice
Hughes position on the presidential nom
nation that has vet appeared. And in
/ view OF his permission for its publca
ton, it will be regarded everywhere as
highly significant. What does Mr..
| Hughes say?
The Justice is entirely out of politics.
Granted. 1t is entirely proper that he
/ should be. Next, he knows nothing
whatever OF the matters lin Virginia
politics. to which Mr.. Slemp refers. Nat
urally and properly! Nor does the eoun-
try at large know much about them. Mr..
| Hughes further says: II am totally OPP
posed to the use OF my name in eonnec-
ton with the nomination, or with the Sc
lection or instruction of any delegates in
my interests, either directly or remote
ly.'
These are ringing words; these are ex-
act words But they do not say what is
well within the capacity of the English
language to say, that if nominated he
should refuse to accept the nomination
and decline to make the run. The words
absolutely" and positively" are signiti
cantly absent, too And the country will
be very glad that he did not say this IN
his letter or have recourse to such
strengthening adverbs.
The only reasonable Interpretation of
this letter is that Mr.. Justice Hughes is
in no sense candidate for the presiden-
cy and would not lift one finger to bring
about his nomination for that office.
This is in accord with all his past utter
ances. The letter also means that he
does not make it absolutely impossible
for the Republicans to consider him as
presidential possibility just short of
that point he stops.
The important duty of the country
Just now is to let Mr. Justice Hughes
alone He should not be pressed for fur
Their elucidation of his position. or pes
tered with other overtures. These might |
perchance compel him to take himself
out of the way altogether. If he can be
left alone. and the latest statement OF
his position allowed to remain unmodi |
fed, the Republicans can go to Chicago |
in. very satisfactory frame of mind /

Armed Liners Not Exempt from Attack

Germany now serves notice of pur-
pose to torpedo armed merchant ships OF
the allies without warning after March
].
The stand of our government has been
that merchant ships, to be exempt from
attack without warning, should be un-
armed. A vessel carrying guns which are
meant to be used can hardly be classed
as ship of peace.
Sec. Lansing submitted a set of pro-
posals to the belligerent governments
which suggested, in general, an agree
ment between the warning powers gov
erning attacks on merchant vessels. One
OF these proposals was that merchant
vessels be unarmed
To these the sem-olficial London
Times vigorously objects: first, because
merchant ships have been armed from
time immemorial," and second, because
nobody ever disputed their right to re-
sist capture until Germany came along
to challenge British control OF the sea.
That is, the arming of merchant ships
is right because it is customary and
merchant ships have a right to resist be-
cause if they did not it would weaken
Britains maritime power.
There is. nothing unreasonable in the
suggestion that merchant ships be UNI
armed. 1t looks, however, as il the Lusi-
tania negotiations had been conducted
by Germany steadily with this end in
view; the German government saving:
We win stop torpedoing merchantmen
without warning; but in order to be ex-
empt from such attack they must be un
armed.
The situation is fraught with sinister
possibilities.
After March /, American citizens who
value their own lives and the peace of
their country would do well to STAY off
armed merchant ships of the entente al
lies, That as good citizens of the world. |
is our part in the business of lessening
the world turmoil. Under international
law Americans have no rights as neu-
trails on armed belligerent vessels--Bos- |
