SINKING Of FLEET is
ARMISTICEV VIOLATION
Continued From First PAGE.

A1ullAiuutu IiUAl IllSb Idkt.s
in question was no violation Of It's
terms.
In law, Germany, by signing the
terms OF the armistice set out above
entered into an understanding that the
ships should remain in the ports in
dicated under such orders as would
insure that the armistice should be
observed
"The sinking OF these hospitals con-
stituted at once a violation Of the
armistice and an act OF gross bad
faith toward the Allied and associated
powers. The Admiral in command,
while recognizing that the act was a
breach OF armistice attempted to JUS
tify it by alleging his belief the armis-
tice had come to an end. This alleged
justification is not we'll founded as
under the communication addressed to
the German delegation on June i6,
1919. the armistlce would only termin-
ate on refusal to sign the peace or n
no answer were returned on June %
at o'clock.
According 10 international law
every serious violation OF the armis-
tice by one of the parties gives the
other the right TO denounce IL and
even in case OF urgency TO recon-
mence hostilites at once. A violation
OF the terms by individuals on their
own initiative only confcrs the right
OF punishment Of these offenders and
II necessary, indemnity for the sus-
tanned losses. IL will therefore be
open to the Allied and associated pow
ers to bring before military tribunals
the persons responsible for these acts
OF destruction. so that appropriate
penalties may he imposed. Further
more. the incident gives the Allied and
associated powers a right to reparation
for the loss caused.
Lastly. the sinking OF the German
fleet is not only a violation Of the arm
istice, hut can only be regarded as a
deliberate breach in advance Of the
conditions Of peace. Furthermore, the
incident is not an isolated act. The
burning or permission for the burning
of the French flags. which Germany
has to restore constitutes another de-
liberate breach in advance Of these con-
ditions.
"In consequence. the Allied and as
sociated powers declare that they take
mole or these Slguai dClS oi bdu ldit"'
and that when the investigations have
been completed they will exact the nee
essary reparationse. 1t is evident that
anv repetition Of facts like those must
have very unfortunate effect upon the
future operation OF the treaty which
The Germans are about TO sign. They
have made complaint OF the 10 years
period OF occupation which the treaty
They have made COM
plant that admission TO the league OF
nations may be too long deferred. How
can Germany put forth such claims If
she encourages or permits deliberate
Of her written engagements?
She cannot complain should the Allies |
use the full powers conferred on them |
by the treaty II she deliberately violates !

Murder and Lawlessness
Editor The Patriot.

:
AS citizen of Glenmora feel
it my duty to speak few words
relative to a wave of lawlessness
which now appears TO. pervade
this community. 1t has often be-
en- my pleasure in the past to CO
mment upon our peaceful lew
abiding town, but it would seem
that such comment cannot be
made in the future, unless the
brakes are applied to the Grim,
nal element of this vicinity who
seem to have taken the bits be-
tween their teeth and aim torun
1t over law and decency.
2 Monday morning early.'a man
was almost murdered (and' may
now lie, Eead} in cold blood just
for his, money. This happened on
one OF the main streets, almost
right up in town, The trouble |
understand originated in a gam
bling joint located on the West
.ern edge of town, where blind
tiger liquor generally flows gal
ore. The guilty parties, we hear
were.apprehended. and. are now
safely under lock- and key. But,

1t has been more or less a Gust
custom for outside people in this

that we have laws covering every
crime in the.calender. Lets have
