NORWEGIAN NEWSPAPERS HIT
METHODS OF THEIR ALLY

COPENHAGEN, Sept II. - The
Christiania Morgenbladst, comment
ing on the Washington disclosures ex-
presses deep regret that Swedish dip
lomacy is so lacking in understanding
ofsthe duties of a neutral, that it did
service as a lackey, which directly
furthered the German submarine war
fare against neutral ships even if it
did not clearly understand the con-
tents of the German dispatches"
The paper continues: in the last
ministerial conference at Stockholm,
nothing was said about the submarine
war, probably owing to the Swedish
cabinet. On the whole, Sweden until
now has played such commanding
part in Scandinavian cooperation that
the other Scandinavian countries have
been unable to maintain their own in
terests to a degree desirable
Neither Norway nor Denmark
would in the future like to leave
Sweden in the leading position if she
sticks to a system which rot only is
to be condemned on moral grounds.
but endangers Sweden's neutrality and
might greatly risk that of the two
other Scandinavian countries.
IF Sweden cannot weaken the i'm
preston made by Secretary Lansing's
revelations, she is hopelessly disgraced
in international opinion for long
time. The idea of an international
conference under Swedish chairman
ship is destroyed forever and we re-
greet to say that we are afraid that
Scandinavian cooperation, which was
SO successfully renewed, will retro
grade and will have the greatest diff
culties to combat"

On The Screen
WASHINGTON

Here's an interesting situation:
James Rokeby, the president of a
national bank, is the guardian for
Marie Dacre, a beautiful young girl.
He is in love with her, but dares not
tell her of his love because she is in
fatuated with Fenwick Harvey, a
worthless young scamp who is after
her money.
Donavan, the keeper Of a vile dive,
who has something" on Rokeby, con-
hives with Harvey in his efforts.
Marie discovers that her father was
thief!
1.-The Guardian" is the big attrac-
ton at the Washington theatre to-
day and Thursday. See it!
George Beban, the Pallas-Paramount
star who will be seen at the Murrette
today and Thursday in "A Roadside
Impresario," spent great deal of time
prior to starting work on this produc-
ton, in getting acquainted with Bruno,
the bear which appears with him. Don
aid Crisp, Mr.. Beban's director, was
also busy brushing up both his Italian
dialect and bear lingo" However,
Mr.. Beban seemed to be the only one
successful in the latter accomplish
ment. which was especially noted
when he would suddenly fly out of the
bears cage and hunt tree.

"SWEDEN DARES NOT DENY
ACCUSATIONS OF NEUTRALS"

LONDON, Sept. 1.-THE statement
of the Swedish foreign office concern
ing the transmission of German tele-
grams from Argentine is regarded by
the morning newspapers as extremely
feeble. They say it will not satisfy
the belligerents and neutrals Sweden
has injured.
The Times declares that the Stock
holm foreign office, "dares not utter
a comprehensive denial. 1t pleads that
these particular messages were I'M
known to it, but admits that Sweden
continued to act as Intern edfary be-
tween Germany and Argentina 1t has
the effrontery to quote as precedents
in justification of this course the
transmission of inquiries from Ger
many about the civil population of
Kiao Chau and from the United States
about American citizens in Turkey.
But by its own confession it knew the
contents of these inquiries and knew
that they were harmless.
Are No Parallels.
What parallels were there between
forwarding open communications of
this kind and forwarding dispatches
written in secret language which it
alleges was incomprehensible to the
forwarding party?' Was it so innocent
of the work in which the submarines
are engaged as to have no suspicious
that secret messages between a great
south American shipping centre and
Berlin might have something to do
with unrestricted frightfulness? If
so, its occupants must be astonishing
ly ignorant of their German neigh
bors."
The Daily Chronicle asserts that the
statement shows a decidedly imper-
feet sense of the Immortality and ex-
IRENE gravity of the proceedings. +
The treachery of which the
Swedish foreign office is guilty is quite
indefensible. There are three ways in
which it may be rectified at Stock
holm. Either the foreign minister
may disown and punish his subordin-
ates; the government may disown the
foreign minister, or the country may
disown the government. Failing any
of these, the allies may be driven to
take steps in their own defense.
Points Not Answered.
The Morning Post says the admis-
sion of the Swedish foreign office re-
fers to Germany alone concerning
whose guilt there is no question. The

points at issue between Sweden and
the allies are not answered. X
1T does not appear that the Swed-
ish government quite appreciates the
gravity of the issues involved More
over, there is the further question as
to whether other Swedish representa-
tives in other capitals also are trans
hitting German messages through
Stockholm to Berlin. Germany, as we
know, has been receiving much infor-
nation through sources undiscoverable
up to the present. After what has been
discovered, it Is impossible to suspect
that it should not have a particular d.
rection.'
The Daily Mail says: "a man may
have perfect right to post friends
letters for him, but when he finds him.
self made inadvertently an accessory
to murder in the exercise, it is natural
to expect little more indignation at
the abuse of his confidence and little
less insistence on his technical inno-
cence than the Swedish note shows"

MAP OF COUNTY
TO Be ARGUMENT

To show the portion of Wayne
county's part of the National road that
remains unimproved, for presentation
to the state highway commission in
their appeal for state and federal aid
in completing the improvement of the
road, to be made next Saturday. a map
of the county roads has been prepared
by County Surveyor Horton to be TAX
en- to Indianapolis by the county com
missioners, representatives of the
Commercial club and County Auditor
Bowman.
Under the federal highways act, the
county will be required to pay but one
fourth of the cost of the road. provided
the highway commission grants the
county part of the federal and state
fund
Richmond men will use as an argu-
ment in their appeal the afct that 221a
miles of the National road is already
improved at the expense of the county.
The cost of the road, as figured by Au-
ditor Bowman and Road Superintend-
ent Jones will be about $4,000, max
ing the county's share about $4,000.

hUM|LIATED BY
EVIDENCE, SAYS
SWEDISH PAPER
London Journals Declare Ex-
PLANTATION is Not Satisfac-
tory One.

STOCKHOLM, Sept. IL. - All the
newspapers print long editorials on
the situation arising from the tele-
grams sent by the German legation
through the Swedish legation at Bue-
nos Aires. The Dagbladt says:
1--WE deeply lament the fact that our
neutrality saams to have been in
fringed by Germany through misuse
of our facilities. The lack Of caution
displayed by our foreign office casts
doubt upon our impartiality, which,
though they are perfectly justified,
must damage and hun1iliate us.
Zone cannot, however, help feeling
that the manner in which the charge
has been made points more in the di-
rection of seeking to influence public
opinion than to any desire to state the
matter for fair consideration. And one
wonders whether there is any connec-
ton between this and Lord Robert Ce-
ellis interview prophesying that the
whole of Europe would arm against
Germany"
Show War Methods.
The Liberal Dagens Nyheter, and
the Tidningen both assert that they
are certain the Swedish authorities
knew nothing of the manner in which
their facilities were being used and
emphasize the point that the revela-
tions afford fresh evidence of the
ruthless and scandalous German war
methods.
The Dagens Nyheter adds that pub
lie opinion in the United States and
Great Britain is ready to believe the
worst about Germany's one remaining
friend among the neutrals, and that
this doubtless will increase the diff
culties in the way Of Swedish imports
from America.

Notorious Turkish
Official Removed

LONDON, Sept. 12.-News has
reached London that the Turkish gov
eminent has withdrawn Djemal Pa
sha, the most notorious official in
Asia Minor, from his post of Governor
of Palestine, owing to the intense
feeling which his methods aroused
among the population under his con-
troll. Djema's successor has not been
announced, but it is believed some
effort will be made by the Turkish
administrators to improve conditions
in Palestine.
The growing hospitality Of the civil
ian populace recently proved a heavy
military handicap, owing to the un-
dercurrent of synpathies with the
Sheriff of Hejaz, whose increase in
popularity among the Arab element
throughout Asia Minor is causing the
Turks most serious concern.

terially damaged the tobacco crop. Ira
