the rights of life and property of bel
llgerents and neutrals on board the
vessel may be impaired if it's status
is that of an enemy warship.
The determination or warlike char
acter must rest in no case upon pre-
SUMPTION but upon conclusive evidence
because the responsibility for the de-
struction of life and property depends
on the actual fact of the case and can
not be avoided or lessened by a stand
ard of evidence which a belligerent
may announce as creating a presump-
ton OF hostile character. On the 9th
er hand to safeguard himself from
possible liability for unwarranted de-
struct1on of life and property, the bel
hgerent should, in the absence of con-
elusive evidence, act on the presump-
ton that an armed merchantmen is
OF peaceable character
Can't Presume 1t Warship.
"A presumption based solely on the
presence of an armament on a mer-
chant vessel of an enemy is not a snf-
flc1ent reason for belligerent to de-
clare 1t to be a WarShip and proceed
10 attack it without regard to the
rights of the persons on board. Con-
ciusive evidence of purpose to use
the armament for aggression is es-
sent1aL A neutral government has no
opportunity to determine the purpose
OF an armament on merchant YES
sci unless there is evidence in the
SHIPS papers or other proof as to its
previous use On the other hand, a
belilgerent warship can, on the high
seas, test by actual experience the pur-
pose of an armament on an enemy
merchant vessel and so determine by
direct evidence the status of the YES
SELL
Summarizing the status of a mer-
chant ship on the high seas, the dec
iaration held:
The status of such vessel as a war
ship on the high seas must be deter
mined only upon conclusive evidence
OF aggressive purpose in the absence
sci has a private and peaceable char
acter and it should be SO treated by an
enemy warship."
The declaration, however, recog-
nized that armed merchandising might
be acting under instructions to at
tack enemy warships and made this
provision:
Raiders Are Warships.
"a vessel engaged internationally in
commerce and under a commission
or orders of its government, imposing
penalty in pursuing and attacking
enemy naval craft, possess a status
tainted with a hostile purpose which it
cannot throw aside or assume at will.
1t should therefore be considered as
an armed public vessel and receive
the treatment of a warship by an en-
envy and by neutrals- Any person tax
ing passage on such a vessel cannot
expect immunity other than that ac-
corded persons who are on board a.
warship.''

statement of this governments atti-
tude by direction OF President Wilson
and was communicated to all the

their maximum sentence.

Club Made Protest.
Mrs Bomgartrer was certain the
club had protested against the ODER
meyer, Schumacher and Stuckey- pa
roles. All of the men, however, are
now outside prison walls. The Stall
hacker parole was issued on the gov
errors own motion. The Temporary
parole to Stuckey is in the face of the
most severe condemnation of the prac-
tice, by the investigating committee
which last fall recommended the re-

prison. Obermeyer's parole was also
signed by the governor. Release of
any of the men-Bissell included-was
impossible until the gov ernor had
heard the evidence, reviewed the rec
ords and signed the papers in the case.
1t was because of the practice in
these cases that the Good Government
club has started a statewide crusade
and promises to start a new brand of
trouble.
The Resolutions.
In the resolution this week the Good
Government club said:
"1nasmuch as we still have two
members on the board of charities and
corrections who signed the parole of
Fred Bissell, be it resolved, that we
demand that no man who has been
convicted of the crime against women
or children be paro1ed, but be required
to serve his maximum sentence.
Resolved that we demand that
municipal, county and state authorities
be more d1ligent in experimenting and
taking into custody all people, both
men and women, who are known to
possess criminal and degenerate ten
denotes, such as have been reported to
belong to the accused Fred BisseI."
A copy of the resolution was sent to
Governor Capper. Copies were also
sent to each member of the board
which recommended the Bissell parole
to the governor.
