WAR GRIMES COURT
FREESLT. AEUMANN
FIRST IMPORTANT CASE TO BE
TRIED GOES AGAINST THE
ALLIED NATIONS.
"ACTING UNDER ORDERS"
Lieut.. Neumann, Whose Submarine
Sank Allied Hospital Ship, Is Ac-
quitted-WilheImn or Tirpltx
Ordered Action.

Leipsic.-The entente officials who
expected the German submarine policy
in the war to be passed upon in Its
broader aspects by the high court In
session here for the trial OF persons
charged with war crimes, when II
dealt with the cause of Lieut.. Kari
Neumann, charged with the sinking Of
the hospital ship Dover Castle by the
German submarine which he com.
manded, we're bitterly disappointed.
Lieut.. Neumann was acquitted after
q hearing OF his case before the court
and through the manner in which the
issue was handled by the judicial body
the only point at issue was whether he
carried out his orders.
Proof was brought to the courts sat.
isfaction that the lieutenant had acted
clearly within the instructions given
him by his superiors and he was speed,
lily exonerated from criminality under
this construction OF the case. Whether
Emperor William, Admiral Won Tirpitz
or other German officials who had q
hand in inaugurating the ruthless sub.
marine policy were criminally respon-
sible was not touched upon.
AS the submarine commanders who
sank the Lusitania and hundreds OF
other entente ships probably can shield
themselves as Neumann did behind
their orders, 1t was commented in en-
tente quarters, there is apparently
slight chance Of securing the infliction
OF punishment upon these submarine
officers.
This trial closed the British cases
so far as they are at present ready for
presentment. These cases proved dis
appointing to most Of the entente OBJ
servers, whose criticism has been that
tht cases are poorly selected and bad
ly supported by evidence.
Entente citizens who attended the
trials have generally expressed them.
selves as regarding the German court
as dignified and reasonable body.
The presiding officer OF the court
after announcing Neumann's acquittal
with costs against the German gov.
eminent, said that all civilized ma.
tions recognized the principle that a
subordinate is covered by the orders
of his superiors. He said that the &c.
cused had carried out orders without
in any way exceeding them and that
there was nothing to prove that he
had been guilty of particular cruelty
as alleged in the allies accusation. He
acted as he had to act, the judge said
and in the opinion OF the court there
was not the slightest doubt that his
orders were justified.

Increased Wages Of Last Year
Be Wiped Out.

Chicago.-Demanding that the entire
wage increase granted all railroad EN-.
ployes In the country by the railroad
labor boards wage award of July,
1910, be wiped out, more than 100 rail-
roads appeared before the board with
renewed petitions for more wage re-
auctions.
Some railroads demanded reduc-
lions OF a Nat 20 per cent cut for
all employees, while others merely de-
clared that every basis for last years
increase had disappeared and that II
now was time to restore the wage
schedules Of April 80, 1920, prior to
application of the s600,00O,OO0 wage
award.
Two new propositions appeared In
the course Of the testimony presented
by railroad representative. John G.
Walber representing 81 eastern car
Fiers, told the board that time and
one-half pay for overtime in freight
and yard train service should be abol.
ished and that a schedule of wages
for the entire country was discrimina-
tory and "a serious violation of eco
nomic laws"
THE principle of time and half
Tor overtime cannot be fairly applied
where the regulation Of hours is be-
yond the control OF the employer"
Walber said. 1T is wrong and in
equitable. We propose prorata pay
ment for overtime"
Mr.. Walber offered a programme Of
proposed wage scale application based
on the rate regions established by the
Interstate Commerce Commission as
m alternative for standardized wage
schedules.

half Of SIS western roads, told the
board plainly that the roads were not
satisfied with the reductions granted
by its decision of June and demand
