OF what possible use Is George CreeI In the
every newspaper man has asked since the begin
ming OF the conflict because hitherto Creels OFF,
cial business has been with the newspaper rather
than with the public. His recent public state
ment that ne glad that America was not
prepared to enter the war marks him as another
pachst whose burden In ONCE the country must
carry when ii needs ali its power to preserve its
existence. He now becomes a matter OF interest
TO the public. which. IL we mistake not. will ac-
quiFe decided diataste for him in very short
time.
As oflcial censor in a censorship once which
really does not exist Crsel has been anything but
a success. In the first place, his career before
the war consisted OF a few magazine articles Of
progressive pacifst nature, and IL he possessed
any newspaper qualifications beyond those OF a
fedglnE journalist IL was deep dark secret as
far as the newspaper fraternity was concerned.
That he had the combination Of news and mill
tary sense requisite for q censor no one has ever
claimed.
His irst bid for fame was "doctoring" oflcial
dispatches to give the newspapers "A thrilling
story Of submarine battle that did not take
place. 1t was an arrant piece Of taking" that
would have brought instant dismissal from any
newspaper office in the country. The protests Of
the newspapers who were duped by this official
were unavailing. and Mr.. Creel continued blithe-
their readers how Rthe mistake" occurred, Since
then the newspapers have been extremely eau

cnNHIcrED BY owN w1TNEss.

In the tense interest surrounding the
struggle in France, one Of the most ilIum-
mating documents published since the war
began, has been virtually overlooked in
this country, or has been given but cursory
attention
tt is the extraordinary statement Of
Prince Lichnowsky, German ambassador
to Great Britain in 1914, which was pub
lished in a Swedish Socialist newspaper. It
has created a profound sensation in
Europe, and Prince Lchnowszy has been
informed by his government and is facing
trial for treason.
The document is a lengthy one, and
complete copies Of it are just reaching this
country, but the writer places the entire
blame for the European conflict on his own
government With amazing courage and
frankness, he tells Of Great Britain 5 eff
forts to preserve peace, and the modera-
ton Of both France and England.
Such d statement would not be surpris-

NEWS AND COMMENT.

The federal trade commission is urgently
preaching greater conservation of white
paper. Conservation, like charity, should
begin at home. There is no better place to
begin than in the government printing of
fee, and if the trade commission is looking
for proof, it will be found in the waste
paper baskets of any newspaper Office, any
day in the week.
Secretary McAdoo is reported to be
wearing patched trousers and half soled
shoes. Just a suggestion, Mrs McAdoo.
With summer coming, he doesn't need a
vest, and two triangular pieces can be cut
from it to reinforce the point Of least re-
sistance.
Here is a problem in arithmetic for
Americans: If Germany exacts tax -
of two billions from Rumania for ttresist-
ing" Germany's plans, what would the
Kaiser ask from America if he got her
where he has Rumania, figuring that
Rumania's population is 100000 and
Americas 110,OO0,00OH
Bolo Pasha is quoted as saying "I am
delighted" when he faced the firing squad,
which reminds us of the comment of the
farmer who saw a laughing hyena in a
circus cage: 81 don't see what in thunder
he has to laugh about"
Evidently loyalty to the United States
government is not yet considered by Pres
ident Wilson to be just cause for remov-
ing public servant, and S. J. Doyle has
been reappointed to the position of United
States marshal.
