wonderful effect.

rush shipments of bread grain to
Switzerland is theatened by the action
of German submarines which, accord
ing TO now fully confirmed reports
from Switzerland, have made a start
on a new policy OF ruthlessness by
sinking the neutral Spanish steamer
Sardinero The torpedoing of the Sar-
dinero carrying nearly 1000 tons OF
cereals for Switzerland, can by no
stretch of the imagination be brought
within the scope of Germany's pro-
claimed submarine policy. since the
vessel was engaged not in an enemy
act. but in a supposedly safe trade for
a neutral ship enroute to a port which
Germany explicitly promised to leave
open a safe passage and was tor
pedoed outside the prohibited zone
Investigated Carog-
ITO add to the delibeTateness Of the
offense, the Sardinero was destroyed
after the submarine commander hao
made a thorough examination of the
ships papers and convinced himself OF
the nature and destination of the car
90, so that no plea Of mistake can
be entered by Germany. The evident
intent and result Of the act was to
prevent Switzerland whose urgent and
need of food is well known
TO Germany, from receiving the Amer
lean grain; to destroy a Spanish ship
for after-the-war trade and to raise
by this much the relative value and
of each German ship afloat
at the end of the war.
''Ey the Swiss-American agreement
Of December 5th the allies guaranteed
to Switzerland for its admittedly urg-
ent needs and eight months supply of
z40. 600 tons of cereals, subject to the
assumption that Germany would safe
conduct the supply ships as specified
IN its proclamation on ruthless sub
marining, which provided safe route
to the Mediterranean port of Cette and
promised that submarines would not
molest such vessels.
1T is hoped Switzerland and other
leutrals will contrast the respective
attitudes of Germany znd the United
States toward the problem of feeding
