The Wolff bureau, the German semi
official news distributing agency, goes to
considerable lengths to discredit the
story that the British hospital ship Rewa
WAS sunk by German submarine and is
Inclined to ascribe the sinking to mine
The logic which it employs to discredit
the story is weird in the extreme; but
the fact that Germany wishes to be alb
solved of the responsibility for the awful
act is proof that Germany is coming to
its senses Its disclaimer of responsible
ity is tantamount to confession that
Germany does not think it is right to kill
wounded men, who are helpless to defend
themselves.

Business Manager Don G. Seitz of the
New York World told Burlington au-
dience that the idea of Japanese inva-
sion of the United States was absurd,
one reason being because Japan has not
the ships to transport the men and their
food. About the same time the report
reached Barre via the rumor route that
four trainloads of japanese troops passed
through Syracuse, n. Y, bound eastward
having crossed the Pacific ocean and then
the American continent. We are inclined
to believe Mr.. Seitz at this juncture, for
the Syracuse story recalls that other ru-
NOR which told about huge contingents
of Russian soldiers passing down through
Scotland and England for the western
front. That was early in the war and
the rnmor was soon proven without foun-
dstion, for the only Russian troops ever
to reach the western front came two
years later, landing at a French port,
Undoubtedly the japanese story is built
out of the same tiImy substance as the
Russian rumor Of the early months of
the war.

People Are Saving

1t has been pointed out as evidence of
how strongly the duty of saving had
been impressed upon the English people
by the warsavings campaign in that
country that in the year 1916, although
purchasing billions of dollars of war
bonds, the small savings bank depositors
in England increased their deposits in
savings banks over S60000,000, this in
face of the fact that the English have
been noted as a spending rather than as
saving people.
1t seems that similar process has
taken place in America. Two great Lib
erty loans were foated in the year Just
closing, and nearly $4,000, 0000, 900 of Lib
erty bonds were purchased by the people
Yet instead of being depleted the saw
been increased. The president of one of
the large New York savings banks is
quoted as saying on Dec. 20, 1917:
"One of the most remarkable things
about the Liberty loan campaigns is the
small effect they have had on the savings
bank accounts, which show an increase
This we lay TO the appeals made to the
American people to purchase the bonds
out of their earnings, paying for them
from week to week or from month TO
month. The people appear to be doing a
they have been urged. purchasing the
bonds from current savings.
If, as one Of the benefits of the world
war. humanity can become more charita
bic and more saving, = great point will
be gained.-St. Johnsbury Republican.

The force of the United States partici-

felt by Germany. The completion of Al
merchant ships next month will be a
powerful blow to the submarine in and

call for extreme exhiaration on the part
of the American people, but there is

This statement is based on sales re-
