following a policy of isolation and
ron-intercourse with the rest of the
world. We must assume that inter-
national intercourse is inevitable,
end seek to establish safeguards for
it. and to make it an agency for
world progress.
Weaker Nations Oppressed
In Trade Intercourse
It may be agreed that a very deli
cate question is raised when one ma
ton or people sets up a claim to
exercise authority over another, but,
as we have seen, these claims arise
inevitably if intercourse and trade
exist between the more advanced ma
tons and those which are more or
less undeveloped in the experience of
organization and government. More
over, on account Of the competitive
relations existing between the adj
vanced nations, their political as well
as commercial rivalries, their suspi-
cions and fears of each other and, to
sum up, the unsettled and anarchis-
tic state of the world organization,
the pressure upon the weak and I'M
developed peoples is sometimes in
creased unduly. Their situation is
regarded as undetermined; there is
possibility that they may come under
the influence or domination of some
stronger power, and perhaps become
a colonial dependency, with preferen-
tial trade relations. These possibili-
ties are bound to be a subject of con-
Germ to the responsible ministers of all
countries, who are charged with safe
guarding the interests of their peo-
Piles. SO long as a considerable por-
ton Of the world, including regions
OF great natural wealth, is in this I'M
settled state, and there is no respon-
sible world organization to deal with
the situation in a judicial manner,
and with a view to promoting the
common good, this clash of interests
unfortunately is apt to occur. The
countries which encourage their citi-
zens to seek investments and trade
abroad and back them up most effec-
lively, will naturally lead in the de-
velopment of the backward countries.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1917-06-24
No Formal Law in
international Field

The weakness Of the international
situation is in the fact that there
have been no established and recog-
nized tribunals for the adjudication
OF international disagreements; none
at least until recently, and as yet
the court at The Hague, although
hopeful beginning, is without the
sanctions and authority that are
necessary to make it an important
factor in international relations.
We have domestic courts to enforce
rules and order upon the business
community, and men can go ahead
in business with confidence that if
they can show good faith and clean
hands they will be protected In their
rights by public authority. Interna-
tonal transactions, on the other
hand, are in a field where there is
practically no formal law or pro-
cedure. Diplomacy to a great ex-
tent takes the place Of judicial pro
cedure; treaties and special agree
ments govern, and all the undesir-
able results of a state Of primitive,
unsettled, anarchistic society are
realized. Where there is no estab-
hshed order or authority, and in
stead of having established condi-
tons to which all must conform
everybody must negotiate for him
self, il is inevitable that the strong
est will get the best terms, and that
there will be rivalries, jealousies,
ermities and eventually spheres of
influence, or, in other words, tacit
agreements 10 recognize each others
predominant interests in certain
fields or territories. No other class
is so much interested in public law
and orderly government as the
weak; the strong are able to take
care Of themselves. Moreover, the
rivalries Of the strong, their efforts
10 maintain themselves against each
other, their efforts 10 secure 20 them
selves every privilege which by any
possibility may be obtained by a
rival, tend 10 make them even more
aggressive toward the weak than
they would be if they were dealing
with the weak alone The latter be-
come a minor factor, or a mere in
cident, in a struggle between rivals.

GRIFFS IN FRONT
AFTER GAME FIGHT
/ TO O-LEAD DIVISION

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The long
fight Of the Grifmen to move to the
front Of the second division finally
has borne fruit. The place which the
Yankees have occupied for some.time
past was stormed and gained by
Griffth's team here yesterday, and
this morning finds the Griffs holding
fifth place by the margin Of one
game. They have two more on the
card for today at the Polo Grounds,
and they stand little chance Of being
ousted, IS Walter johnson is slated
to work one game and Harry Harper
the other. The probability. is that
Washington will enjoy three-game
lead over Bill Donovan's luckless out
fit when another day daBns.
Superb pitching by Doc Ayers sum-
marizes the first victory for Griffth's
team here, and the hitting OF Meuos-
key, Foster. and Morgan carried the
visitors to victory in the second game.
They hit Shocker hard most sof the
way In the closing number, but with
little success, Is the felders cEmped
under or IN front OF many a drive
that was ticketed for safe territory.
The break came in the eighth. when
Peck made q poor throw, and after
two lads reached the bases, Menoskey
pumped q pretty double into right
field, tying up the game. This hit
carried the game into. overtime, and
IN the eleventh hits by, Shanks, Clyde
Milan. Foster. and Morgan put the
game out OF the reach OF the Yankees.

More Good Pitching.

In the second game Griffith got
some more good pitching. frst from
Jim Shaw and then from George Du-
mont, who finished up the game
Shaw pitched seven innings and then
went out in washington's half Of the
eighth to allow Leonard to try a
squeeze play.
Charity was on third and Ain
smith on FIRST when Leonard hunted
along the third base line. Baker
raced in and made a quick throw to
the plate, Charity losing the decis-
ion after a pretty slide. The Griff
men put UP quite a kick on the de
cision, which was a very close one,
and might have gone either way.
Then Menoskey followed with the
double which put Griffith's boys back
in the game, and they held off the
Yanks until the flock Of base hits
arrived IN the eleventh.
Dumont was in trouble in only one
~ the four innings, in which he

A resolution to this effect, was adopted

policy committee of the association,
said: S.
I'VE are anxious to cooperate with
the state in the matter of food presex-

must be given to understand Just how
to go about this. Persons who can
afford good choices of meat should not
eliminate those in favor Of cheaper
cuts. If this is done the man with the
lesser income will he robbed of the
meat he can buy, for the price is
bouIlJ to go UP and through no fault
of ours. Now IL we told persons to
continue eating choice cuts our mo-
tive would be questioned On the
