WASHINGTON. April 22.-DiScuSSion
of the possibility of physical friction
between Germany and the United States
as a result OF the submarine contro
Ycrsy develops the fact that the treaty
OF 1S2S between the two nations CON
tains special provisions with reference
Ia u state OF war. II is pointed out
that, although that treaty was made
with Prussia, its present validity has
been recognized recently by the Ger
man empire III support of It's contro.'
vcrsal positions.
According to this view. the treaty of
1925, still In force, revived certain pro-
visions OF the earlier and superseded
treaty of 1899. Among tho articles thus
revived were two, numbered, respec-
lively, NNIII. and ENIN., providing
particularly for the continuance OF Ger
tain agreements, even during war be :
tween the two countries. The general
provision is thus expressed:
And 1t Is declared that neither the
prctcnse that war dissolvcs all treaties
nor any other whatever shall he con-
sidcrcd as annulling or suspending this
and the next preceding article; but, OH
the contrary. that tho state OF war is
precisely that for which they are pro-
Vided, and during which they arc to he
as sacredly observed as the most ac
knowledSed articles in the law of ma
turc and nations"
One Of the two articles thus dcscrjhod
as defining sacred obligations even in
case OF war is devoted 10 provisions
regarding the humane and reasonable
treatment OF prisoners of war. Tho

ming OF actual hostilitics.

A MISTAKEN IDEA

Now and then we come across
thcse who are opposed to Nation
al Preparedness" giving as their
reason that We are peaceful ma
ton, hold NO illwill towards other
nations and seek not to acquire new
territory.
This may not be true for several
reasons. First I'll at the Unf.ed states
has an area of 3.060, 900 square miles
with only 100 900 900 population. while
Europe has 3.74S,OOO square miles
with 4OO. 100000 population. Many
OF the European Countries are so
densely populated that they are con-
sanity hunting new possessions to
populate WITH their overflow, while
many portions Of the United states
are as yet but srarcely populated.
This fast increa sing population in
the old world, ma urslly lock to and
covet ehe unsettled portions Of the
western hemisphere, and 1t Is only
a matter Of time when their power
full armies and navies will be direct
ed to our north and South American
shores for extended territory. The
pacifists, led by Bryan and Ford musd
know that this government is not
only jeopardizing cur people, but our
American territory, by not making
suitable shore protection, and Great
ing a larger army aud navy.
The havoc and waste now being
wrought at Verdun by modern artil-
lery should teach us that we should
ever be prepared ito resist formid-
able fee, and place our country on a
basis of safety from foreign powers.
