Trial of German officials.

According to the Berlin Vossische
Zei.ung the German national assem-
bly, will enact law creating a court
to try those who have been accused
of crimes during the war and who have
asked for an investigation. Those
specifically mentioned are Gen. Luden-
dorff, Won Bethmann Hollweg, Admiral
Won Tirpitz and Won Jagow, with others
"whose activities can be Judged only
by such a court"
It is not to be deduced from this
statement that the former officials
named, or others, are to be punished.
They have asked for an investigation.
There is no tribunal for their trial.
A special court will be created for
the purpose. 1t will be German
court, not international. The proce-
dure before it will not necessarily be
in accordance with the full require
ments Of justice.
If any Germans are to be properly
tried and adequately punished for
their violations Of the laws Of hu-
manity they must be brought before
a court not of their own countrymen,
but before a tribunal representing
civilization.

opposed as un-American, and against
the general spirit of the age. Amer
lea, it is pointed out, has grown and
thrived on immigration, and could not
close her gates even at this disturbed
time without injury to herself. Such a
policy would put the country distinct
ly out of touch with the outside world,
and produce very harmful sort of
isolation.
Undoubtedly, however, the war has
shown the need of strictcr regulations
concerning those who come to Amer
lea to share in the opportunities the
country affords. They should come
with the purpose of making the eoun-
try their home. But whatever their
purpose, or the length of their stay,
while in the country enjoying the pro-
lection of the country's laws they
should obey those laws to the letter
and carry themselves with due regard
for the favors they are receiving.
The President should have some
thing to say ON this matter in his ad-
dress to Congress, and then Congress
something to say when the immigration
committees report either on the Presi-
dents recommendation, or with rec
concentrations Of their own The gates
of the country should be kept open,
but well guarded against all undesir-
ables from whatever country they may
present themselves for admission.

A Call for Volunteers.

A call for $4,000 volunteers for serv-
ice in Europe is to be issued at once
by the War Department. This is thc
first call for volunteers since the begin
ing of our participation in the war two
years ago. 1t will be interesting to
see what response is II. ,.de to it, There
should be no doubt on this score, how
ever. There are surely $4,000 young
Americans who, disappointed on the
score Of being sent overseas, will be
quick to answer this summons and gain
an opportunity for duty in Europe. 1t
will not necessarily be merely guard
duty. They may have to do some
fighting. The war is not assured
ly over and the enemy may elect to re-
ject the peace terms. In any case,
however, the men who now 20 over.
seas as a replacement force will have
an interesting experience. Army con-
ditions are much improved. made
quacies of equipment and care have
been corrected and the "doughboy" in
the service today is far better off
physically than few months ago, ir-
respective of the question of danger.
Probably most of those offering
themselves for this service will come
from the lately demobilized ranks.
There may. however. be a large CON
tingent from among those below the

Advance the Clocks Tonight.

Before retiring tonight advance the
clock one hour. Set the hands for
ward, not back. Make IL o'clock ap-
pear to be IL, so that tomorrow morn
ing if you rise at 8 by the clock it
will really be by the sun. This is
the essence of daylight saving, to start
the day earlier according to the sun
so as to have the benefit of longer
period of daylight in the afternoon
and evening.
The law that establishes the daylight
saving principle throughout the United
States was enacted, not for one year
or for the "period of the war" but
permanently. 1t will remain effective
until specifically repealed by Congress
An effort to repeal it at the last session
failed Hence the statute is now in
force, and according to it the clocks
must ton ight be advanced the pre-
scribed hour.
1t is up to the individual to decide
what to do with the added hour of
daylight. He can work or play during
it. He can use it for recreation or
for profit. The theory of the law is
that the added hour of light will be
filled with some useful and productive
form of occupation. The farmers do
not like the new system, but the anna
teur gardeners do. There is probably
a majority sentiment in favor of it
throughout the country, but whether
it is favored or not it stands as the
rule, and tomorrow morning and
throughout the spring and summer the
day of daylight will be one hour longer.

Victory Loan Payments.

In arranging for the payments for
bonds of the fifth loan in six instead
Of the usual four installments the
Treasury Department has undoubtedly
increased the chances of wide popu-
lar subscription to this issue. Here
tofore the Treasury dates" for in
stallment payment have covered only
four months, and in the case of the
fourth loan the last two payments,
comprising so per cent Of the whole,
fell due within a few days Of one an
other. This was a severe strain upon
both the banks and the private purses
Of those who bought on the official in
stallment basis.
With 10 per cent due on subscrip-
ton and the second payment of 10
per cent coming two months later, the
balance Of the bond money can be
paid during the remainder Of the
period in a way not to interfere with
the installments on the income tax,
which are due quarterly. The de-
ferred bond payments carry interest
for the government while the deferred
tax payments do not. This furnishes
an incentive for anticipating the bond
installments.
While it is assured that the bonds
Of the fifth loan will be so attractive
to the professional buyers as to insure
the complete success Of the loan
through the banks, it is still desirable
that as large a percentage as possible
of the issue should be taken by indi
viduals. It will be the first expert
ence of the government il offering
short-term securities to the public at
large. The enthusiasm created by our
participation in the war and the preva-
lence Of hostilities may be lacking in
some degree, but the people have ac-
quired the bond buying habit, and now
realize the advantages Of investment
in government securities. A very large
response to the invitation to buy these
bonds of the victory loan is to be ex-
pected.

Clean Out the Vermin!

Attorney General Palmer is bent
upon cleaning house. He hopes to Sc
cure from the next Congress legisla-
tion that will permit q more thorough
purging of this country of dangerous
persons than can be accomplished un-
der the existing laws. After the es-
pionage act has expired by limitation
there will be urgent need of some new
mode Of caring for those persons who
are hostile to our system Of govern
ment, who seek to pervert or over
throw it and who are, therefore, dan
gerous to the public welfare.
There are now confined in the IT.
ternment camps, according to the Al
torney Generals analysis, some 1000
people, mostly men. Of these 2,00I
are merchant seamen and the others
have been interned as dangerous alien
enemies. About 1900 Of the seamen
have applied for repatriation to Ger
many. Five hundred Of the danger
ous enemy aliens have also applied for
return. These 1890 will probably be
accommodated soon. About 600 Of the
less harmful class Of the alien enemies
are about to be released on parole
The repatriations and the paroles vii!
leave about 900 dangerous alien enc
mics whose release should not be per-
mitted. Many Of them are convicted
criminals, spies and enemy agents.
The Attorney General believes they
should not be permitted to remain in
this country.
A complete clearance Of all who are
not citizens Of the United States and
who hold and advocate monarchical
views Of government and who if given
the opportunity will agitate for So
cial revolution is demanded Iy the
first considerations Of public safety.
That pernicious organization the In
dustrial Workers Of the World, despite
prosecutions, still prevails as a most
bsleful influence. II the men now in
termed under the espionage act are
freed they viii make of that organi-
xstion . medium to foment turmoil in
industrial centers.
Mr.. Palmer has become thoroughly
familiar with the situation in the
course Of his service as alien property
custodian. The ramifcations Of the
German spy system were laid bare to
him As well as to the staff of his pre-
decessor in the Department Of Justice,
and there is no man in the government
service today more .keenly aware of
the need of action under the old laws
and the enactment of new ones to
purge the country Of the elements max
ing for disaffection and disruption.
bis recommendations to Congress
when the new session begins should
be given prompt attention and result
in the needed LEGISLATION.

immigration.
This is from Boston:


"A. Warner Parker announced TO-
day that the bureau of immigration
had drafted tentative Immigration
law, which would have a number of
radical provisions regarding the ad-
mission and stay of aliens in the
United States. Speaking before the
Boston Chamber Of Commerce in place
of A. Caminetti, commissioner general
OF immigration, who had been expected.
but was detained at Washington, Mr..
Parker said that three main features
were included in the proposed new i'm
migration law. These we're: Registra-
tion Of all aliens now in the United
States or who are to apply for admis-
sion hereafter. Making the admission
of immigrants provisional or proba-
tionary during their stay in this coun-
try. Changing the burden of proof
OF requirements for admission, so that
it will be incumbent on aliens to prove
their fitness for admission. rather than
upon the government to prove their
unftness, as at present"
The question Of immigration when
taken up will be a very interesting
one in Congress and throughout the
country. Changes in the immigra-
ton laws were advocated long before
tho European war broke out. Restric-
tions were urged on several scores.
But the questions being delicate and
dif6eult all attempts failed.
The war, as all know, has made the
question more interesting and impor-
tant even more delicate and difficult,
than ever. That immigration from Eu-
rope, suspended considerably by the
war, win, now that the war is over,
be revived in appreciable measure in
. fsw yeazy Is q popular belief. Hence
the movement to bring the question
before Congress as a feature of re-
construction.
There are those who favor closing
the gates Of the country altogether
