PASSING THE NAVAL BUCK

DOLICING South American waters is
at last in the hands Of their native po-
licemen. Brazil is now to protect her
own coast from Guiana to Uruguay
against German outlawry. Because this
important action was long in coming,
and because each step of the largest
Latin-Amercan republic toward belliger.
ency was taken with a peculiar delibera
tion that hardly supports our conven
tional notions of the Latin temperament
citizens Of our ATTITUDES wondered whether
Brazil's warfare would ever pass the
"philosophic" stage. But that she has
plunged into the sphere of actuality there
can be no doubt.
Brazil's navy will fight any U-boats OF
Teuton raiders discoverable off her shores
with all the vigor Of a full.hedged bellig
erent. In the beginning this was the
Franco-British function. Then the United
States navy lent a hand. The Allies ships
departed. Brazil then co.operated with
our cruisers and finally her men.of.war
replace ours.
This ultimate phase OF passing the
naval buck raises liberty-loving Brazil
TO the full rank Of partner. By thus
guarding her own home she releases a
powerful American fleet for important
duties elsewhere.
