''Unwise Words

PHILADELPHIA, April :. - Judge
Joseph Burlington Of the United States
circuit court of appeals in addressing
a group Of men about to be admitted 10
citizenship informed them that any per
son, whether native born, naturalizcJ
or lmnaturalized, who knows of treason
against the United States and keeps il
to himself is guilty of misprision o.
treason. 1t is like receiving stolen goods,
the Judge said.
The court also told the men that
under the laws OF the United States a
man who is not citizen can be guilty
Of treason and quoted the supreme
court OF the United States to the effect
that an alien who stays in the country
in tine of war owes local and tenn
porary allegiance which continues dur
ing the period of his residence.
Judge Burlington cautioned the new
citizens TO remember that .'what was
only foolish and urwisc in word and
deed last week may he treason when
war has come.
He advised every foreign born man
and woman in the United States t.
keep clear of any person who coun

If reGners are to reduce their output
of cane sugar to parity of price with
beet it would mean a corresponding re-
duction in the price of raw cane sugar.
1t is more natural that in the, meantime
the price should gradually shade down
than that the cut should come all at
once. If refners are to get their raws
at lower price than now month
hence, they can well reduce output
meantime and cessation of demand
would inevitably result in a lowering of
