den, and it is not at all likely that the
Swedes are as yet prepared TO give the
kaisers armies right OF way through
their dominions.
But one thing is clear, as the result of
this diplomatic clash between Norway
and Germany--the scandinavian countries
are brought a step nearer to the neces-
sity of choosing between the two great
antagonists. Step by step, they are be-
ing reduced to the necessity OF deciding
whether they are for Goblin or for Short.
Germany cannot touch Norway now, but
some time she may be able to. The
menace forces Norway, nation OF only
100000 people and an appallingly ex-
tended coast line, to find allies to make
her border secure. And what other al
lies are there for her in the case except
Great Britain, France and Russia Sooner
or later Norway must stand with them;
and there is at least possibility that
she will be compelled to take this stand
before this war is over, in order to ac-
ouire merit with the only powers that
can protect her against German revenge
in the future. Either that, or she must
make herself secure by yielding the use
of her troops as virtual base against
British commerce. In the meantime,
Sweden, through her complete depend
ence upon Germany's great supply point
and from her fear of Russian aggression,
is brought nearer and nearer to taking
sides in the war with Germany.
We have already said that Germany's
sharp protest to Norway in the matter OF
the submarines is also in the nature OF
notification to the United States that it
must not take Norway's position with
regard to submarines unless it is also
prepared to incur Germany's displeasure.
If it is unneutral on Norway's part to rid
itself of this intolerable nuisance, 1T
would also be unneutral on America 5
part to do the same thing. We are be-
ING hit, in anticipation, over Norway's
shoulders. No one can tell where the
next submarine outbreak on our own
shores will take place. And when it
comes, we shall, on the basis of the Ger
man notice to Norway, be compelled to
submit to it with the same tameness
as that which we have already official
w diplayed in the case of the U-53s
depredations. Are the American people
prepared to have this ravsge brought
continually to their doors Boston Tran

cation because it mildly criticized Won
Hindenburgs recent statement that
France is wearing herself out and that
the entente allies are destined for defeat
and also because the newspaper coun-
seled that the Germans ought to be rea-
sonable, as we'll as the French, regarding
the prospects of peace. Such holiness on
the part of a German newspaper is very
extreme; but the sentiment expressed no
doubt reflects the feeling of no small part
of the people of that nation at the pres
ent time.

Here is an oddity; A Burlington auto
truck driver fined for backing his car
faster than the speed limit. Yet there
is more reason for fining motorist for
driving too fast backward than too fast
forward because the backing automobile
is much less under control than the ma
chine with radiator first. Moreover, the
driver backing his car cannot maintain
the same degree of surveillance of the
road as he does when sitting straight
face to the front We have seen drivers
who were quite reckless and careless in
backing their machines but who were
considered not liable to arrest because OF
the mere fact that a backing machine
was not supposed to be capable of break
