LOSING HER
PLACE IN THE SUN

The Outlook says no nation can
long be called efficient which fails
to advance the general life of hu-
manity. AS the war drags on. with
its ever-increasing wake of ruin and
loss, Germany is fast los
ing her ''place in the sum-" and STANDS
as the "horrible example" of utter
failure along the avenues of real
world service. That she is powerful
none can deny; but that her strength
is of the eternal type is daily becom-
ing more doubtful In sense she has
been efficient, but for fundamentally
wrong purposes: and, unless the I'M
expected happens, she is bound to UNI
qeEmlne her own foundations and find
herself less respected and both moral
~ and physically weaker than before
she conquest Of Alsace-Lorraine.

INDIFFERENCE
OF OFFENDERS.

There is an irritating ingenuousness
in the warning nations of Europe Oh
which neutrals are. reminded almost
daily. With no exception they are con-
stantly overriding, or at least over
straining, international law; yet haru.
ly a week passes but some one Oh
them is appealing to humanity TO VII,
ness the hardships thereby imposed
upon the sufferer. Germany IS now
talking of the possible influence to oe
exerted by President Wilson IN res.
training the threatened severity OF
a tighter blockade on the part OF the
Allies.
AS a contemporary suggests, II IL
yere not so tragic, it would be anus
ing to note the calm if not cynlcai
Indifference of the offenders to their
own delinquencies. For example, the
dispatches which told us the other
day of Germany's intention OF appeal
inc to the President brought at the
same time news of the shameless
bullying of Switzerland by the leu
tonic neighbor. Germany mad decld-
ed. we heard, to cut off all supplies OF
coal and other essentials from
Switzerland unless the Swiss Govern
ment agreed to import from the Allies
and then export to Germany, COM
modities which the Swiss have OBJ
tanned only on condition that they do
not reach German consumers. While
the Great Powers are thus engaged
in squeezing Switzerland merclless-
~ between them, they are loud in
their cries of protest whenever any
analogous hardships threaten them
selves. The fact is that the whole
fabric of international law has been
reduced to a farce by the events of
the last two years. Not the slightest
regard is paid to international re-
gulations when the victim is too weak
to defend itself. Military necessity
or political advantage is the first and
only consideration In the main, the
offenses of the Allies have been of a
less revolving character than those OF
the Central Powers. England opens
mail, but she does not torpedo pas"
ships. The Allies may donli-
pcer over small countries like Greece
or Holland, but they exert economic
not military pressure.
