British Villagers Delight In
Watching Uncle Sans Trim Craft

BASE AMERICAN FLOTILLAS IN
BRITISH WATERS, Aug. 4. - Cor
respondence Of The Associated Press.)
Atop a steep ACTIVITY that skirts the
harbor of this port much like the
Palisades on the Hudson River, hun
dreds of villagers and folk from neal
by city gather each night to watch
the American destroyers-the trim lit
tie fighting ships Uncle Sam has sent
across the Atlantic to combart the sub
marines.
On a peaceful, beautiful, moonlight
night these people have a picture OF
silent activity that is hard to beat.
From their high perch the people
can see for several miles vast eX-
panse Of hills and water that make a
wonderful setting for the lighting
craft at their feet.
The British and American sailors
on shore leaves bring their girls up
there and men and women trudge baby
carriages from miles around to watch
the silent ships.
Excursions Bring Crowds.
It has come to be one of the most
popular walks in the country; even
the railroads run weekend excursions
to the spot bringing hundreds of holl-
day-clad boys and girls from great
distances to see the Americans.
to a certain hour the ships are out
lined in the darkness by many lights.
but all the time there is scene OF &C
tivity on board and the water. The
bluejackets with their little white
caps seem to be always moving about,
motor dories dart here and there
among the ships, orders are called
out and occasionally is heard the
shrill warning of the horn on the
dories Always the dories are running
from ships to shore, loaded with men
going on leaves or returning to snip.

Many strange, startling, nl5tocy'

HAVRE. France, Aug. 3.--(Corre-
spondence Of The Associated Press)--
The Belgian government has received
information to the effect that departed
Relgians working in the Thyssen
Works at Mulheim on Ruhr, declared
that as the Germans had violated their
promise to send them back home at
the end of four months, they would
prefer to die rather than to continue.
The Germans imposed a fine of 80
marks each and Imprisonment for 10
days upon the men.
One hundred and eighty Belgians in

of food and thirteen of them were I'M
prisoned at Munster.
The Riebecksche Works, employing
Belgian civilians in their mines, de-
prived the men of all nourishment for
five days in order to force them to
work. The directors of this concern
justified their action. saying that the
privation was not absolute, but was
necessary in order to overcome the
passive resistance of the workmen.

For the President

All over the country voices are calling for the
formation of coalition cabinet. Newspapers
and magazines suggest the change not because
they have no confidence in the president but be-
cause they believe that parties are merely ma
chimes to get votes and offices.
The president is greater than party ma
chine. He represents the people. They look to-
their fortunes. Since the sons of all parties
and the money of voters of all parties are being
used for the consummation of great cause, the
people are wondering why a coalition cabinet,
composed of the best men of the country ire
spective of party affiliations would not be safe
innovation.
Editorially the Saturday Evening Post says
this week:
The country is engaged in war the duration
and sacrifices of which one foresee. All
present indications point to long war and to
enormous sacrifices.
The country is ready for that.
How effectual it's sacrifices will be-whether
its blood and treasure are spent to the best ad-
vantage Observation-Disclosures in large de-
gree upon Washington
Since the executive whose name the capital
United States has had the confidence of the peo-
pie of this country in higher degree than Wood
row Wilson now has it. When they offer their
sons and their money it is to him they look.
But they have no particular confidence in
that partisan political organization that he hap
pens to represent. That is merely one of two ma
chimes for the purpose Of getting votes and Of
fees.
The country deeply feels that this war should
not be exploited for money profits. 1t feels
equally that it should not be exploited for par
tisan political profits.
great stroke of patriotism lies within the
power OF the President. IT, when the most press
ing war legislation is out of the way he will re-
organize his cabinet overriding partisan division
by calling in the best ability from the other par
ty, and recommend like non-partisan reorgani-
cation of Congress, he will quicken the whole
country anew, give it the inspiration of firm faith
in its leadership and write himself so high in it's
regard that every other temporal office will look
tawdry beside his.
1t will not be pleasant task for a kindly
man. But there are considerations that i'm
measurably outweigh kindly mans reluctance
to hurt well-meaning friends feelings.

First Woman To Sit
At Diplomatic Table
Is American : Born

LONDON, Aug. 4. Correspond.
ence Of The Associated Press)-The
first woman diplomat to sit at a table
Of diplomatic negotiations according
to the Daily Mail, is Mrs. barley Liv-
1ngstone who was one of the six Brit
ish official representatives at the An
glo-German Conference at The Hague
recently, to deal with questions on
prisoners of war
Mrs. Livingstone is an American
married to British officer and has
been member and secretary Of the
Government Committee on the Treat
ment by the enemy of British Prison
ers since it was formed two years ago.
In the early days of the war Mrs.
Livingstone used to do all the inter-
prisoners who were returned periodi-
cally and although this work is now
done largely by a large staff of volun-
teers, she still makes it a point of
personally interviewing all escaped
prisoners Of war.
Mrs. Livingstone talking about her
visit to The Hague, said:
People did seem surprised to find
a woman among the British repre-
sentatives. / am sure | don't know
why, because there is really nothing
that women are not doing in England
today, is there? I had no means of
telling what the German representa-
tives thought, because, of course, we
didn't talk to each other-not socially
l mean. Indeed, it would be quite
impossible to give you inadequate
idea of the extreme Formally of the
proceedings.
Il was there merely to assist Sir
Robert Younger, our chairman, with
information which as secretary of the
committee | naturally have at COM
mand. 1t was real hard work all the
time, and both parties were concern
ed solely with the welfare Of the pris-
oners. Questions concerning them
were the only ones discussed. and I
think the agreements concluded will
be found to be very satisfactory"

Wireless and searchlights which al
night replace the flag signals and
semaphones are exchanging messages
and lights on board each ship flickel
up and out in Morse code.
In the midst of all this is heard the
strains of string music-guitars, ban
jos and violins-which seem to be IA
vorites with the American boys. From
the deck of the supply or mother ship
which boasts a string orchestra Of fit
teen pieces, Hawaiian melodies en-
chant the music lovers on shore.
From other ships music comes from
the phonograps, with which every shiT
in the flotillas is supplied.
On week-ends many of the towns
people crowd into small boats and
swarm about the destroyers in theil
anxiety to get as close as possible tc

Among Richmond's taxpayers are men who
rank high in the nation for their work in penal
reform, and yet these men, with their sympa-
thetic souls and highly developed moral sense of
what is right and wrong, have seen nothing
wrong in the Richmond police court
Never has their voice been raised against the
mayor; never have they denounced him as an
ignoramus, thoroughly incapable of administer
ing the elementary justice that is handed out in
that tribunal.
Viewed from every angle, the proposition to
create the office of police judge is misguided
effort to make a new office for which the people
of Richmond must pay the price. The taxpayers
are the who must go into their pockets.

The Police Judge-Take Your Time

Members of the city council who are preju-
diced in favor of the project have plenty OF time
to consider the project carefully.
The taxpayers of this city are watching the
city treasury just as carefully as are members of
the city council. They are the ones who must
bear the burden of the $1,000 annually which the
new office will cost the city.
The argument that mayor can save more
than this amount by looking after other city af-
fairs during the thirty minutes the police court
is in session, is specious.
Taxpayers and voters know that the business
of the mayor and Of the board of works has
slowed down wonderfully in the last twelve
months, and that these officials will have less
work next year.
Why? Because the city has no money to ex-
pend for public improvements
The "other city affairs" to which the mayor
is supposed to give his attention next year will
not exist The mayor of Richmond while the
great war is in progress will have less to do than
any mayor has had for many years.
Such being the case, why create new office :?
The mayor will have plenty Of time for the work.
Lack of time is plea that is so thin that the cit
izens have seen through it long ago.
How about the mayors ability to preside over
the court?
The ability of mayor to act as police Judge
has not been questioned heretofore.
If it had been questioned, citizens long ago
would have demanded change
The promoters of the scheme to spend $1,000
of the peoples money annually for salaried job
have not adduced one single case where justice
has miscarried in the police court.
The files of the newspapers do not contain a
single complaint of an offender asserting that
justice had been violated by mayor. In fact,
the persons who appear before that court usually
admit their guilt.
Again, if the mayor of Richmond, taken from
professional, business or industrial life, is sup
posed to have brains enough to run the whole ma
chinery of the city government, including all de-
partments, why should he lack brains enough to
decide whether the evidence produced in police
court proves man innocent or guilty.
If the specious argument of the supporters of
the city judgship really holds true, then, no one
excepting banker could be mayor, because the
mayor is the commanding figure in determining
the financial policy of city.
Again, the mayors word goes far in deciding
on public improvements
If he cannot be trusted to hand out justice in
police court how can we believe that he possesses
sound judgment in these matters?
1t seems strange that the utter unfitness of a
mayor to preside police court should not
have been discovered until few weeks ago.
Richmond's taxpayers are given credit for the
