new book by S. Ivor Stephens, writ
ten from what he considers the
American point of view" 1t is
mainly scathing criticism of the
untruthful reports of the American
press, especially the New York
Press, which he considers respon-
sible for the American attitude to-
ward Germany in the war. While
agreeing with him largely, lie is in
consistent when he quotes the same
press to back up his villifications of
England, also to large extent true.
Mr. Stephens would have had bet
ter case against the liberty OF
speech" and it's abuse. had he not
taken sides and called 1t the cruel
fixion of public opinion" There is
no doubt but that what he says OF
New York and the New York press
supports his argument thet we are
suffering from license. rather than
liberty. OF speech. also his case
against the shipping Of munitions

many loyal. peace loving Americans,
