THE ENEMY BLACKLIST"

There seems to be some misuncer-
standing as to the action of the Brit
ish government in putting a number
of trade concerns in this country
upon what is known as the Trading
with the Enemy Blacklist" The VIII
son administration has raised Dig
hullaballoo over this matter, after
conducting palteriug policy over
graver indignities put upon this coua-
try by Great Britain. 1t IS MAINTAIN
ed by the highest authorities that the
English government has unQuestioned
right OF control over the trade OF its
own subjects in the United Kingdom.
and in time of war ii can forbid them
to trade with the enemy. Anyhow
this is not nearly so grave an injury
AS the Wilson administration inflicted
on this country in practically arnlns
a possible enemy to shoot down Am
erican citizens and soldiers in Mexico
and upon our own soil.
But the point IS that Great Britain
is disturbing no legitimate trade nf
American business houses with her
own subjects. and the club given by
Congress TO the President should not
be swung without grounds more rela-
tive than have been revealed. Quot
ing from clear vision Of this Ques-
ton it is made plain that the right OF
Great Britain to prevent its own sub
jects from trading with it's enemies Is
not disputed. and there is no inter
ference in this recent order with the
trade Of German firms or anybody else
in this country, unless it originates
with British subjects in Great Britain
who use this means of eradlng the pro-
hibition. What is forbidden is noc
trade by. with or through the black
listed concerns, except for persons
domiciled in the United Kingdom. We
can hardly claim the right to protect
the liberties of British subjects N
their own country or of persons

LOOKING TO MAINE TODAY.

Maine votes to-day after a campaign
OF extraordinary activity on the part
.sot both the Republicans and the
Democrats. The Wilson administra-
I ton hopes to gain something out OF

Quasi claim for vindication OF Its
s,policies. A reduced Republican ma
, iority even will satisfy it, and will en-.
3 courage it to go forth throughout the
: country proclaiming weakening o.
the Republican cause. The Repu5t-
4s:icans confidently expect TO disappolat

small comfort. The issues have been

tiles.

Aduice to Girls
By Betty Bropn

Dear Betty: The other day met
a very sweet girl who proved 10 he
very congenial to me. She is a high
school girl, and do not go where She
does, so cannot see her often.
Her father dislikes her having com
pany, so | cannot call at her home.
Is it proper for me to meet her after
school and take her around TO amuse-
j ent places without going to her home
F.. B.
Do you not think that it would he
dishonorable for you 10 meet the girl
without her fathers knowledge You
may feel that the girl is being treated
very shabbily by cruel parent, but
remember that he knows her better
than you do and probably is working
for the girls good.
The truth is that the girl may have
said that her father dislikes her hay
ing company because she prefers 10
entertain her friends at other places
than her home The manly thing for
YOU TO do would be 10 ask the permits
sion of her parents for you to call. II
YOU show them this consideration they
may relent and allow you to come.
Whatever you do, please do not
stoop to do anything sly in order 10
see the girl you admire so much.
