ON A GRADUATED SCALE

NJ HE sinking of three Am
VI erican ships by German
submarines Sunday adds
materially to the growing bel
ligerent feeling toward Ger
many on the part of the Unit
ed States. Yet it will not ne
cessarily cause any vital
change in the situation at
present.
The United States has ad-
opted a policy of armed neu-
trality. It is going to send its
merchantmen forth armed for
defense against submarines.
The government is going to
see if the guns on our mer-
chant ships will not solve the
submarine problem as far as
we are concerned. There is a
possibility this will do SO, first
because it will be dangerous
for submarines to sink our
ships, even if they want to do
so, secondly because it must be
apparent to Germany that IT
the arming of merchant ships
does not serve to protect Am
erican commerce then this
country will take further and
more drastic steps to attain
that end, even if we have togo
to war.
President Wilson's action
yesterday in speeding up our
naval construction work ap-
pears as a precautionary step
1t is vet to be seen whether or
not the arming of merchant
ships will serve to protect our
commerce. If it does not il
may be placed down as a Ger.
tainty that the president will
then call for some line of ac'
ton that will accomplish the
purpose. His object is the pro.
lection of American rights and
he will attain thatsend, come
what may. So the extent tc
which we will participate II
the war depends entirely upoT

HOW TO SUPPORT THE
PRESIDENT

TT is reported by the Wash
ington correspondent OF
the Evening Post that
while the president is deeply
gratified by the pledges OF
support sin upholding interna-
tional right" which the people
of New York are signing, he
would be more deeply gratl-
fled if the pledges were con-
crete and the citizens of New
York were urging Senator
Wadsworth and Senator Cal
der to vote for the ratification
of the Colombian treaty.
This is something that ought
to be done. The Colombian
treaty ends what Senator Knox
who was attorney general in
the cabinet of President Roose-
velt, calls "a real and long
standing difference between
the United States and Colon
bia." Latin-American resent
ment against the United States
for the ruthless taking OF
the Isthmus has contributed
more to German prestige IN
South America than any other
cause. 1t gave the first great
impulse to German influence
throughout Latin America
Roth the Taft administration
and the Wilson administration
have Iabored to effect an hon
orable settlement of Colombia g
claims and terminate Latin
American suspicion = OF the
friendship and good faith OF
this country. Those effort,
should not be defeated and
brought to naught.
1t is hardly worth while tol
people in New York to sign pc
titions supporting the Presl
dent against Germany If the
senators from New York, un
der the influence of a distorted
Ipartisanship, are to play int.

and Surprises Shown In
First Two Months Of Major League Race

As the big league races
draw near the halfway mark
IL Is interesting to look over
the clubs and figure on their
possibilities and see how they
line up with early season pre-
dictiOns.
With the exception of st. Louis
and Detroit the American league
clubs seem to be going at about
the clip that was expected of them.
Boston, Chicago and New York
seem to be the best in the league
with Cleveland trailing, Detroit
scrambling out of the tail end
heap, Fielder Jones not getting
all he should out of the Browns
and Washington and Philadelphia
draining the dregs.
The disappointments are st.
Louis and New York. AS the sea-
son opened st. Louis figured a GER
tain first division club. Fielder
Jones had good pitching and de-
veloped two youngsters. He has
fair catching, fast infield, con-
sistent outfield and bullet speed.
But st. Louis has been losing
many games by scant margins.

Tacomas club was weakened,
with two semi-pro players replac-
ing regular men, but that was no
excuse for all the other Tigers
forgetting the very essentials of
the game. The Spokane club went
to pieces in the first inning, and
played a particularly punk game
thru every inning. Each team
made seven errors. But II errors
in judgment could be credited in
the box score, the total number of
boots for each team would be
doubled. For the benefit of
those fans who didn't see the
game, we frankly say that 1t was
the most pitiful attempt of grown
men to stage a baseball game in
Tacoma since they rolled the
humps off our league field.
Lefty Schroeder started the
game for Tacoma and pitched un-
til the middle of the sixth. Why
he was yanked is mystery. Be-
cause it was decrepit support by
both infield and outfield that got
him into all the holes. In the
sixth. for instance, Helfrick reach
ed first on Coen's bobble, and
scored when Heale, In left field,
made circus clown of himself
trying to field perfectly simply
fly. And because Heale let the
ball go through for a two-bagger,
Schroeder was replaced by Pillett.
Herman didn't pitch as well as
Lefty, allowing six runs to come
in while he was on the hillock.
The final score was 10 to 6, Spo-
kane.
Every kind of error imaginable,
from high and wide throws to
first base, to rank fumbles of slow
grounders, made such a farce of
the game that even the lady bugs
in the grandstand forgot their dis
may and laughed heartily at the
exhibition.
Percy Heale, semi-pro star, who
substituted in, left field, was par
ticularly off his game, being re-
sponsible for two Spokane dou-
bles and three Spokane runs.
o o o
Eddie Klein, the port-sider who
was released by Hall and then re-
signed to bolster up the team
while it was crippled, will proba-
bly, pitch today. He will leave fo-
his home in San Francisco after
the game.
Vernon Ayau, the Chinese play
err recently released by Bill Leard
of Seattle, will arrive today to
join the Tigers. He will proba-
