seamen, like the rest of their coun-
trymen, showed the yellow streak
when it came to the test. There is
no essential distinction between q
navy and merchant marine in this
respect. Despite the redeeming
grace of exploits like that of the
Emden, the men Of the German navy
acted like landlubbers in the great
emergency.
Although Germany is for the
most part an inland nation, the fact
remains that her coastlne is long
enough and important enough to
breed race of seamen. The Ger
mans might have been as good
sailors as the Scandinavians had
they been really responsive to the
call Of the sea. The immense inland
development of America made us
for a time an industrial rather than
seafaring people; yet along the
Atlantic coast, at least, the glamour
of the sea never wholly faded, and
every American is in some sort a
descendant of the men who carried
the flag to every corner of the globe.
We have the stuff for great nlcr-
chant marine, and our navy shows
that we are as hardy and skilful
as amy of English blood The dis
grace of Scapa Flow would be I'M
thlnllable in the American navy. 1t
was not German industrialism which
destroyed comprehension for the
sea- for that which does not exist
cannot be destroyed.

German Hate

Colt is at it again. After almost
a full years rest, undisturbed save
for little noise made here and there
by some pan German writer's who.
since November IL, 1918, we're occa-
slonally airing doubts as to mis- eff
cacy as partner in arms, the
kaiser's old mate is put TO the task
anew. This time, however, the
prospective victims Of his wrath are
not the English, but the Poles. A
song which, according to the CORE
spondent of The London Times. is
enjoying great popularity at Katto-
WITT, in Upper Silesia, enumerates
the horrid things poor old Colt is
expected to do, as follows:
"If Silesia becomes Polish, may God
cause children and cattle to die un-
born; may God cripple the hands and
feet of the Poles and blind their eyes,
strike them deaf, smite them with
madness; may no sound of rejoicing
flood Polish lands, but only groans
and cries; may God in this wise Stake
the revenge of the Germans"
A large order. But whatever the
above lyrics merits be as clear
and concise working schedule for
Colt, as q piece of art if does not
measure up with Lissauer's cele-
hrated anthem. The latter has still
his adherents, as story printed in
the Dortnuuder Geuernl-Anzeiqor
tustifies. A Latin school teacher.
one Herr Buchlitz, in an address to
his pupils, is quoted as saying:
"Only hatred and revenge may
reign over us now. AS in 1914 we
must make our song Lissauer's magniti
cent Hymn Of Hate Jesus said
that we must love our foes, but that
concerns only individual persons For
us Germans there can only ke hatred.
and from that hatred shall be born
the German dawn of freedom"
This Herr Buchlitz is attached to
the "gymnasium," Or classical high
school, at Essen.

usefulness. They would work as

money, and the $500 club members
have set out to raise S1O0 900 to
meet the expense. The appeal is cal
culated to open purses. The money
will be raised, but this is not

IN clear language what the Pres
ldent-at least part Of the time
has said the treaty already con-
tains or implies.
Future liberty of national action?
The President contends that the
unanimity rule Of the covenant pre-
serves it. The Monroe Doctrine?
The President holds it is recognized.
The right of free withdrawal? The
President argues no nation would
challenge our right to withdraw.
The preservation of control over do
nestle legislation? The President
has said it would exist without a
reservation. SO as to the Shantung
issue and equality of representation
in the assembly of the league. He
asserts that these things are already
secured.
SO the issue is whether the ma
ton shall state its attitude openly
or trust to Interpretation. To state
the issue is to decide it. An honest
nation will not leave its position to
any sort of doubt. If there is repe-
tltion the tautology VIII do no harm.
Finally, for domestic constitu-
tional reasons it is necessary to
indicate the principle that Pres
ldent is not an autocrat with UNI
controlled power over foreign rela-
tons. The Senate was made his
partner in treaty making for sound
reasons. A precedent must not be
established which will say that this
great article no longer has any eff
fectlve power. The President has
made his appeal in such a way as
to require the Senate not to submit
TO dictation.
Responsibility for unnecessary de-
lay rests with those who have pun
sued a course they knew we'll could
not succeed. They were amply
warned, but for partisan and per
sonal reasons they have kept up
their vain struggle. If they are
now willing to desist from flibuster
ing opposition, there is no reason
Why action should be postponed.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1919-10-19
Amendments and Reservations

Senator Colt. who was formerly a
distinguished Federal judge. spoke
IN a clarifying way the other day on
the question Of amendments and
reservations. He opposed both the
Shantung and the johnson amend
ments on the ground that. they would
not accomplish the real purpose they
had in view. He favored reserva-
tons which would accomplish that
purpose.
As to Shantung, an amendment
transferring to China the rights
granted to Japan by the Versailles
treaty would have to be accepted bv
each of the signatories in order to
effect the transfer. Japan, of
course, would not consent. Great
Britain, France and Italy might not
consent. A deadlock thus might en-
sue, and the United States might be
compelled to make a separate peace
with Germany.
But if a reservation is attached
asserting the freedom of the United
States to ignore the Shantung award
Under certain conditions the reserva-
ton would affect only the United
States. We would not be involved
in the shame of bartering away
economic concessions at the expense
of an allied nation. We could work
hereafter to secure a remuneration
of the rights which other nations
have acquired in China.
The Johnson amendment. dealing
with inequality in national repre-
sentation in the league, cannot cure
that inequality, Mr.. Colt argued.
1t would be but slight advantage
TO US to have six votes in the as
sembly Or as many votes in the
council as the British Empire and
It's dominions, colonies and Deepen
denotes might have. If we were in
volved IN a dispute we should lose
our six votes. The real question is
whether, if the British Empire were
involved in dispute, it would also
lose it's six votes.
The status in the league Of the
British dominions, colonies and de-
tendencies is ambiguous, as Mr.. Colt
sensibly says. The ambiguity ought
to be removed by a reservation tc
the effect that each sovereign state
recognized as such in it's interna.
tional relations, shall have one vote
and that in case of a dispute the
word party in the covenant must
include the dominant member of ar
empire and all its dominions, col
onies and dependencies.
Such a reservation has been pre-
pared and will probably be adopted
1t would not invalidate the treaty
but merely state our understanding
Of the te--,S OF the covenant and i'm
phedly 40 whether with such ar
understanding the other powers de
sire the United States tn become 6
member of the League.

comprehension for the Sea"

One of the frankest of Admiral
oon Tirpitz's many frank admissions
Will be found in his remark that
the German nation had no compre-
pension for the sea- The obvious
meaning is that it did not under
stand the meaning of sea power.

mlral adds, sit made no use of it's

Of the navy is a sufficient common
tary upon this statement. But lack

The Decalogue of Labor

/. Thou shalt not shrink produc-
lion. By it all are fed. It is the
mother of every material blessing.
2. Thou shalt not break contracts
Neither plenty nor brotherhood is
possible when men are liars.
y. Thou shalt not raise thy hand
against the better machine or
method. Invention lifts the curse
pronounced against Adam.
!. Thou shalt not slack on the job.
The unused talent rusts and the
sluggard sins against his soul as
against the leisure and happiness of
his fellows.
s. Thou shalt not put three men
10 the work of two. The third is a
burden carried by the two.
s. Thou shalt not deny freedom to
others. Another's right to work is
As sacred as thy right to quit. He
may also bargain.
2. Thou shalt not deem an en-
ployer an enemy. He is thy partner
and earns his wage.
8. Thou shalt not Cypress the con.
sumer. Strip him and he lacks
wherewith to buy the work of thy
hands.
9. Thou shaft obey the law, the
mandate of the majority. If it suits
thee not persuade, but beware Of
the barbarism which distils the
poison that might creates right.
10, Be thou a man, independent
full statured, mindful Of the mora
law, guided by an intelligence which
sees that man best serves himself
by harmonious cooperation with his
fellows.
