HOW LAPS SETTLED SUBMARINE PROBLEM
Chicago Tribune)

Chicago Trbune)
 Emperor Yoshi Hito has adopted very stiff atu- tude in connection with the torpedong of the Japanese liner Osaka Aiaru in the Mediterranean some weeks ago by German submarine without any warning or pro- vision made for the safety of the civilian passengers or various nationates on board
 For according to the explanation furnished by his minister of foreign affairs in the Senate at Toko ne caused the German Austrian governments Co be inc formed that in the ease of any repetition whatsoever of the ofense by either of the Central Powers he would not only cause all the Austrian and German aubjec;s now o liberty in Japan to be vigorously Imprisoned but would also select from among them number cores pondng with that the lives lost through the torpedo Ing of any Japanese liner and would have them shot without any further trial and with the shortest poss ble shrift
 As there are @ very large number of Germans and Austrans In the Japanese islands who, subject Go a certain amount of police surveillance have been allowed to remain at liberty and to about their business and as moreover the Japanese have in their custody all the German garrison and population of the Kaisers former Chinese colony of KiauChau while there are no Japan csc either in Germany and Austria, the Mikado may oe said to have hold of the big end of the stick
 This has evidently been realized at Berlin and at Vienna for although Japanese liners stl traverse the Mediterranean there has been no further instance or any of them being nterferred with by either German or Austrian submarines
 or course the positions of the United States and apan with regard to submarine warfare are somewhat different for whereas, Japan is full fedged oelig- eren which has deprived Germany of that Chinese col ony on which she has spent such large sums this country is merely a neutral power Still, President Will son may derive some encouragement in the attitude which he has assumed from the results achieved by the strong stand taken by Emperor Yosh Hito

vERDUN PROBABLY SAFE

verdun has withstood the terrific German attacks for more than four weeks Three weeks have elapsed since i, was first announced that the city doomed
 And now the reports are that the attacks have become less furious and more cautious The loss of life has been so great that the attacking forces have been stag eered All of which indicates that verdun is not to fal-not yet at least The of France have build ed defensive machine that is stronger than her pow erful foe had contemplated
 The renewal of the Russian offensive on the Dvina river in South Poland and along the Gaiclan frontier affords another ray of hope the French defenders Many German troops h is said. were removed from the scenes of their last years victories against Russia to participate in the attacks against France This was Russas invitation to try that newly armed newly equipped and newly proyisoned army of which we have heard good deal during the winter. Also, likely will cause Germany to call back to that theatre of war men who have been employed against France.
 If the verdun attack should fall, as now seems probable 1t will be one of the many failures to occur since the Battle of the Aarne. more than IS months ago. when the French and British stopped the first great dirve at Paris If the Allies should finally win or if the war should finally be draw. the Battle o the Marne will go down to posterty as one of the srea decisive warturning contests of the worlds history

REPUBLICANS AND THE PRESIDENT
fNew York world)


 Elihu Root made speech at the Republican State Convention Feb l5 bitterly assaing the President of the United States for having been "rresolute in ac ton" in defense of American rights against German lawlessness
 March the United States Senate voted on the Gore resolution the adoption of which would have tied the hands of President Wilson In resisting the new German submarine order or the IA Senators who voted against the ablng of that resolution twelve were Republicans. Of these twelve Republicans four are aspirants for the Presidency.
 March the House of Representatives voted on a similar resolution and that resolution marked the most critical period in our relations with Germany. On the final roll call lO2 Republicans voted against the Pres dent and for the Kaiser. Among these 1O2 Repubi- cans were Mann. Cannon. Mckinley, Hil, Rodenberg, Subway and all the Republican old Guard leaders in the House With them voted five Progressives. A majority of the Republicans and nearly all of the Pro- essves voted that American citizens forced to travel on armed merchantmen should receive no protection from the United States government.
 We submit this record to the Republican critics the President Are they against him because he has not been vigorous enough in his conduct of our foreign relations. or because he is too vgorousi Do they condemn him for being too weak In defense Of American rights or too firm?
 They connot have lt both ways. They cannot ape paud Root and at the time applaud the majority of the Republicans of the House. They must choose one side or the other or admit that their attacks on the President in this crisis dishonest nsncere, and unpatriotic.

Just now the Republican National leaders seem to be worrying as much the selection Of temporary chairman of their National convention as they are over Presidential candidate. It might be that the choice of Presidential candidate will depend lot on who Is temporary chairman. Such has been the case in more than one convention. The principal fight in the last Republican convention was the temporary organi. zaton and the question of seating delegates The ds patches tell us that the subcommittee arrangements of the National committee at Chicago yesterday failed to agree upon my one for temporary chairman.
