STRENGTHENED
New Note From Allies Re
ceived With Much En-
thusiasm.

Berlin, Feb. DISCRIMINATION Of
the official ext of the last allied
note sent to the German government
relative to the trial Of men accused
Of war crimes, shows that a signih-
cant passage was omitted from the
Paris version published here on Tues
day afternoon. This passage refers to
a, stipulation by the entente that the
previous verdicts at trials of, German
war offenders must be annulled and
that they be remanded for new
trials.
This provision. the Freiheit says,
means the re-opening OF the Fryatt
case in which a German commission
decided on the execution OF Fryatt
captain Of a British merchantmen,
was not a violation of international
law. The conservative Pan-German
press unites in rejecting the allied
note az wholly unacceptable.
Qualification that the entente pow
ass had recognized Germany's con-
tent1on relative to the physical i'm
possibility of surrendering men q
cused Of violation Of the laws Of wal
was expressed today by a foreign Of
fee official. He said that it was in
evitable that internal chaos would re.
suit from such a step and declared
the German cabinets position was
materially strengthened as a result Of
the decision reached by the supreme
council in London.
I'VE do not for a single moment
dslude ourselves with the assumption
the government has scored a diplo.
matte victory in persuading the en-.
tente to recede from its original at.
titude on the extradition ISSUE" he
said while we are gratined mas.
much as the allied note permits thu
conclusion the entente is inclined te
smooth the path for other negotia:
tions. we are fully conscious Of the
dangers and difficulties to be me-
within the trial Of war criminals. IT
this connection it is hoped the very
.ca:nt evidence presented in the extra.
dillon list will be by specific testi:
mony or that cases for which nc
tangible evidence is adduced will b.
abandoned"

II is a positive relief to get great
numbers of citizens to find that they
will not be called upon to decide
upon a program OF startling innova-

And since the armistice we have
been drifting upon sea or tepid
sentimentality, roughened by an oc-
casional sauall Of selfishness with
out energy enough to get up steam
and with no one to lay straight
course for us back to owrk.
The first thing our country needs
is to sober up and get to work. We
have had a beautiful dream and II
made us feel good. But even
great nation cannot get very far
simply by feeling good. Dreams
about wealth without work and the
ushering in of the millinium by leg
islation may serve to tighten the
tedium of the voyage in the steer
age and saloon, but unless the
ships officers and crew keep on their
job meanwhile, such dreams are apt
TO end in tragedy. We must shake off
the hypnotic fascination of an inn
aginery abstract virtue which we do
not possess and which we could not
practice If we did possess It and
bring ourselves under the discipline
OF those simple homely virtues, by
which normal men wok and live. We
