AMSTERDAM, July 21.-An at
tempt against the life Of the kaiser
was made on July 3 by two unnamed
Americans, according to q report
brought here by one who claims to
be familiar with the details Of the
affair.
The two Americans. according to
the report. managed to reach the vi
cinfty of the kaiser, at his great head
quarters, but their actions aroused
the suspicious of the detectives guard
ing the person OF the German ruler.
Before the two could carry out their
plans, detectives seized them and a
search revealed that each had a re-
yolver, with ammunition.
According to the reports in circu-
lation, following the arrests and in
terrogation of the two prisoners, they
had approached the kaiser with the
intention Of killing him, under prom.
Use Of a large reward should they sue
coed, to be paid them by an alleged
American millionair.
The Americans were given a sum-
mary trial and were shot within "a
hours.

Control Of Oversee Commerce.

One Of the most important moves by the
United States in connection with the war has
just been taken, the president naming a board
that will be charged with the oversight Of ex-
portation of goods OF any kind from American
ports. This is direct outcome OF the war, the
result of peculiar situation which requires I'M
usual action. President Wilson explains briefly
the purpose in the following statement:
"The free play of trade will not be arbitrarily
interfered with. 1t will only be intellisently
and Systematically directed in the light OF full
information with regard to the needs and mar
ket conditions throughout the world and the
necessities OF our people at home and our armies
and the armies OF our associates abroad
Much Of the imitation in prices which has in
duced such oppressive conditions In this country
has been due to speculative buying among ma
tions neutral in the war, but active in commerce.
These have asked for American products far be-
yond their own normal requirements, with the
intent OF selling again. Americans have not been
alone in gambling in necessities looking to gain
undue profits through war conditions, and for the
protection OF the consumer, both at home and
abroad, this must be checked.
Shipping shows the tendency in direction Of a
general holdup of the commerce OF the world 1t
is openly charged that a million tons of neutral
bottoms swing idly at anchor in belligerent ports,
waiting for higher freight rates. Enormous profits
already obtained have only stimulated desire for
more and the exorbitant demands Of the vessel
owners will have to be met just as other attempts
at extortion are being met. With the United
States properly organized and equipped to deal
with these modern pirates, something may be done
to remedy situation that has become intolerable.

Missouri Pacific on It's Own Feet.

Omaha has peculiar interest in the announce
ment that the Missouri Pacific railroad has passed
from the hands Of the receiver into the control
of its owners. Details Of the reorganization plan
were long ago discussed and need not here be
recounted The important fact Is that the great
railroad system has been restored to usefulness
and under the conservative management of the
new company 1t will be permitted to so operate
as to better serve its patrons. 1t is a most i'm
portant connection for Omaha to the southern
part Of the country, into which the products of
this region are going in ever-increasing volume.
Locally the new arrangement may permit Of an
easier adjustment Of several matters that have
been in state Of suspense between the railroad and
the city. The Missouri Pacific is an indispensa-
BILE link in the great transportation system of the
central west and should be of untold service to
the region it traverses

Soft Words Of No Avail.

The North German Gazette is an ably edited
newspaper, to whose words real Importance must
be attached Therefore It's conclusion that the
United States has entered the war for the pur-
pose of protecting its loans to Great Britain,
France and Russia may be fairly taken as in a
measure expressing views held by thinking Ger
mans. 1t does not matter that this is entirely
wrong, for the important thing is that such asser-
tions will have great effect in discreditng our in
tentions among the populace Of Germany. 1t is
not enough that we send over copies Of the presi-
dents address; the German government has a
very ready answer to that in the argument pre-
sented by the North German Gazette, the effect
OF which must be to solidify the support of the
nation back Of the kaiser Hope of ending the
war by means Of propaganda Of the sort proposed
by the pachsts is vain, for soft words will not
turn aside the sword Of warrior in so desperate
fight as that now being waged. Deeds must be
relied on to determine the outcome and on them
must rest our hopes.

Right Kind of Censorship

How is information calculated to give "aid
and comfort to the enemy" being conveyed to
Germany from the United Statesl The newspa-
pers are not at fault; they have scrupulously OBJ
served almost without exception, the requests
OF the government 1t may be doubted if spies
in the government departments have much to do
with it. There is much simpler explanation.
The mails and the cables to Europe are still un-
censored on this side, That task is left to the
British censorship. 1t is a task which none but
ourselves can adequately perform An interesting
Washington dispatch in the New York Tribune
points out why. In the first place, much mail for
neutral countries does not pass through British
hands German sympathizers here are cut off
from direct communication with Germany, but
they can send any news they please through
Mexico or Spain, for example. In the second
place. the British censorship cannot in many
cases discover the true nature Of messages which
comes from the United States. Unless there is
something plainly suspicious about them they get
through. The subtler forms of information can
be detected only by American investigators.
IT, therefore, news regarding the movements
OF our warships and similar confidential matters
is reaching German officials the explanation Is
sufficiently obvious. Large numbers Of Germans
in this country are unmatched and unregistered;
going on. No doubt the majority of them are
perfectly loyal But this is no reason for giving
them the opportunity to be dsloyal If they desire
Those who have nothing to conceal cannot OBJ
ject to censorship OF their correspondence,
since all citizens alike will have to submit to it.
There is something distasteful Of course. in the
idea that letters sent out Of the country must be
opened and read, But many things must be tol-
Grated in war which would not be tolerated in
peace. We are courting disaster so long as we
let those who would do us injury have a free
hand

Food Saving Day
New York World .

Herbert Hoover's plan to make next Sunday
a day for special consideration of the problem
of food conservation, a "Food-Saving day" on
which to devise means for conserving food for
ourselves and our allies, should receive hearty
support, as it must. On that day in all American
homes attention should be given to economical
food consumption as it affects the family and to
personal measures taken in every household "to
save the waste and win the war"
This is patriotic movement in which every
body can join to help the country by helping him
self. 1t involves no expense and only negligible
amount Of self-denial and makes possible through
individual economies an enormous collective saw
ing
In the United States there are more than 2l,-
00oo0o families If by each one of them pound
Of meat or pound of -four is saved from the gar
bage pail every week it is matter of easy cal
culation what the effect would be in offsetting
either shortage of crops or an access Of exports.
This is the way to win the war and rout the
food SPECTATORS and its adoption now demands
none OF the hardshps of war rations. The date
set falls suggestvely near the anniversary of in
dependence. Why cannot it also be made the
day Of new emancipation from habits OF food
waste and from servitude to the food gambler
