OTHERS BESIDES GERMANS

| ~OL. ROOSEVELT is very
" wroth against the German
language newspapers ana
he seems to have good grounds
for his denunciation. How
ever, the New York World
takes the ground that there
are some American newspa-
pers published in English that
belong in the same category.
Says the World:
rs any German-language
newspaper so flagrantly dis
loyal to the United States as
Mr.. Hearst's New York Ameri-
can? Is any German-language
newspaper guilty of the infa-
nous attacks upon the Presi-
dent and government of the
United States that appear reg
ularly in Clan-na-Gael and Fem
ian Irish papers? Is any Ger
man-language newspaper wag-
ing such venomous and audaci-
Gus campaigns against the war
policies of the government as
the socialist newspapers are
doing?
"At heart the German news
papers may be no more loyal
to- the cause of the United
States in this war than Mr..
Hearst or the Irish radicals or
the extreme socialists, but they
at least have the virtue of be-
ing more discreet in their dis
loyalty and more restrained in
their utterances. We see no
Justice in making a campaign
for their suppression because
they are printed in the Ger
man language while more
wanton offenders are privi-
legged to promote seditiOn in
English.
To be frank about the mat
ter disloyal Americans or AM
erican newspapers failing to
cooperate properly with the
government are more entitled
to censure than the Germans.
