SWEDEN PUT ON PROBATION

the munitions factories which have
sprung up since the war began.
Another phase of the situation
that is given careful attention here
is the possible effect if Argentina
breaks relations with Germany or
declares war. Argentina this winter
will have large quantities Of wheat
for export and as a neutral she might
send much of 1t to the European
neutrals under the operation of the
British blockade. AS a belligerent
or with diplomatic relations broken,
however, the Argentina government
probably would take control of its
exports and carefully supervise all
shipments to the neutrals to prevent
any foodstuffs from reaching Ger
many.
Argentina is the only one of thu
big food exporting nations now a
peace with Germany. The Argentin
wheat crop this year promises SUI
plus Of two million bushels, much o
which, it is said, already has bee
purchased by the EnrOpean neutra
governments.

already been declared definitely that
no foodstuffs or other supplies will

WASHINGTON, sept. 11.-While
the American gosorlment awaited
developments following Secretary
Lansing's disclosures regarding the
transmission of official German dis
patches by the Swedish charge at
Buenos Aires, Washington officials
and foreign diplomats turned their
attention to a study of their possible
significance.
Two facts stood out clearly in the
minds of most observers. Sweden
will be compelled to make definite
her position as a neutral and the ex
posure may be taken as indicating
more exactly the intention OF thu
allies to see that Germany shall CEASE
receiving aid from all the northern
European neutral countries.
Publication OF the facts, although
disclosing nothing the government

pATRICTIC LAWYERS.

Every lawyer in Tennessee cannot

bit of service by helpin3 to sustain
the business OF those who have en-
listed. That is what the State Ear
association thought and so declared
in resolutions adopted yesterday.
Under the plan of the resolutions
no lawyer who stays at home will
accept for himself the business of
clients of men who have gone into
military service, but will take care of
such business and give whatever fees
may be derived from it to the absent
LAWYER who would have hand ed it
had he been at home.
This action on the part of the Bar
association is a refreshing proof that
the ethics of the bar have not been
abandoned and that the lawyer Of to

fellow man.
There will be some shysters and un-
principled practitioners who will vio-
late this voluntary covenant and seek
to undermine the practice of men who
nave made the supreme sacrifice Of
enlistment for military service; but
they will be scarce and when once
they display craven purpose to take
that which does not belong to them,
the public should subject them to an
ostracism more severe than that i'm
posed by the ancient Greeks upon
men who had incurred their disfavor.
The example of the lawyers is one
that could not we'll be followed by men
ged in commercial or industrial
pursuits, but it could be made the
rule in all professions and to some
extent among farmers. If the war
