Criticism of British Press London, Sept. 10.—Photographs of the king and royal family of Swe- den, Swedish soldiers and bird’'s eye views of Stockholm are featured in several newspapers under Cross-page heads such as “Sweden’s exposure,’ and “Sweden charged with breach of neutrality’ while others carry special reviews of the entire course of events in Sweden since the outbreak of the war. tion to that of Greece a few months ago, sayings> “Its queer is German. The Graphic, in an editorial says: “We cannot view without infinite regret the position into which Sweden has been dragged by active sympathy of certain of her rulers towards Ger- many. The disclosures which were imade from Washington shed a bril- liant light upon dark places of Hun diplomacy. Let us thank the United States for penetrating the plots.” The Graphic asks: “What do Denmark and Norway, partiés with Sweden to \the Malmo mesting, think of it?” Swedish “Neutrality.” The Telegraph says: “It is exactly seven months since the publication of the Swedish reply 19 President Wilson’s message 10 «lh- er neutral states, in which he ex-, pressed the nope that they would ‘find it possible to take similar action’ to that of the United States in breaking oft diplomatic relations with the Ger- man empite.

New York, Sept. 10.—The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of New York state convened in extryg- ordinary session here today with the purpose, it was said, of providing for an honor roll on which will be in- scribed names of members of the state lodge who have entered the army or navy. It is understood a fund will be created for the care during the war of dependent families of masons in the coumtry’'s service. THEY'LL HOLD IT YET. Geneva, Sept. 10.—The Berne Bund says that the postponed socialist con- dignity of the nation did not- force it to chapege its policy.’ Today we have before us highly practical illustra. tion of what that government regards as coming within the limits of neu- trality which is expressly declared to be without any .Jeaning to either group of combatants in the war, and also what it considers to be consist- ent with the dignity of the Swedish nation.” Allies Cannot Remain Indifferent. The Times declares that the Swed- ish disclosire on its face is a gross breach of the elementary obligation of neutrality. The Times says that President Wil- son hasg told how Germlany dared to apply 2 policy of intrigue toward the United States during her neutrality, etc., and mentions how a member of the Swiss national council and a Swiss minister wers mobilized to make a German peace offer to Russia and how later high explosives speclally prepared to destroy ships were discov- ered in the baggage of Baron Von Rantenfels in Chrisitinia. “The key of the whole system’ says the Times, ‘“Is found in the German emperor’'s personal messages to the Czar in 1904 and 1905, particularly in the message which d2scribes his plan to selze and occupy Denmark in the event of war.” U. S. Deserves Gratitude of World In conclusion the Times decleres that “neither the Allies, nor the Swed- ish people can remain indifferent to the latest example.” “The conduct of the Swedish min- isters in these cases is unpardonable’ declares the Pogt. ‘“We do not know conduct which is as irreconcilable with honor and good faith as it iy with neutrality. It can only be hopea that out of self respect the Swedish people will repudiate and condemn the acts of the men who discredited Sweden’'s good name.” The Post adds: ‘The government of the United States deserves the gratitude of the civilized world for its continued and methodical revelations of German perfidy and wickedness."” Lind Demands Americanism. Stillwater, Minn., Sept. 10.—Speak- ing at a loyalty meeting here, the gathering being composed largely of persons of Swedish birth or descent, John Lind, former governor of Min- nesota and member of the state pub- lic safety commission, last night ex- pressed astonishment at reports that the government of Sweden had per- mitted itself to become the tool of the German emperor by forwarding despatches from the German charge d affaires at Buenos Aires to the for- eign office in Berlin. He declared that if the Swedish government did this advisedly, in violanon of interna- tional law, the Allied nations cannot ignore its action or attitude. “As a citizen of Swedish continued the former governor, should deplore trouble between our nation and Sweden, but you men in this nation of Swedish blood and de- scent must remember that we are not of the Swedish household. Whatever kindly feeling we may have toward the people of Sweden, we say to them that unlessithey choose to have a gov- ernment in harmony with the aspira- tion of the free peoples of the earth they must suffer the consequences of the actions of their rulers. “As to us Americans of Sgedish blood ,they are our friends in peace, but in war, if such should come they are our enemie: blood,” G Swedish Ambassodar Denies Charge Beéunos Aires, Sept. 10.—The Swed- ish minister to Argentine, Baron Lowen, yesterday denied that des- patches in cipher had been sent to Berlin by the German charge through the Swedish legation at Buenos Aires. He declared: “I have not sent, nor caused to be ference eventually will be held in Switzerland at a place and time yet to be determined. -~ sent by the legation under my charge any telegram from the German lega- tion.

That the sit- Mptlon is consider#d serious was evi- denced by the fact that the populace, usually gay on Sunday, were remark. ably auiet and sober faced. Dancing girls, waving Argentine flags ‘and be- decked with American and British flags, were greeted with silence at the soclety matinee after being wildly ap- plauded all week. Urges Swedish People o .Act. Paris, Sept. 10.—The Swedish-Ger- man revelations are made a feature by ' today’s Paris newspapers, which, in their introductory notes and head- lines, attach responsibility to the Swedish government and in particu- er of foreign affairs. The guilt of the affair must rest upon the whole Swedish cabinet, de- clares the Matin. Various newspapers such as L'Action Francaise, the Petit Parisien and LeJournal Ggomment up- ‘| on'he energetic action of the Ameri- can government in the case and upon the excellence of the American secret service. ~ In general the press de- mands that the Swedish people promptly disown a government which has betrayed them into such ‘“scan- dalous violation” of good faith with the Allies. Washington Marking Time. ‘Washington, Sept. 10.—The govern- || ment today still was waiting for some indicption of how the Swedish gov- ernment regards the disclosures of the part taken by its legation to Buenos Alres in trangmitting German lega- tion dispatches to Berlin, Neither the Argentine ambassador nor the Swedish minister hete ie- sented any message from their gov- ernments and it was indicated that untii one or both had communicated with the state department, this gov- ernment would take no steps towards the development of what may lead to 2 serious alteration of Sweden’s posi- tlon among the neutral governments. ' At the state department today it was made clear that there was no disposition to question the good faith and honesty of the Swedish people. The distinction between the people and the government was carefully pointed out. That Argentine will take prompt steps toward securing an explanation from Sweden is assumed, and the state department will be surprised if the Argentine foreign office does ni force the recall of Count Luxburg, the charge d'affaires, who advised the sinking of Argentine ships “without leaving any traces” and who referred to the head of the foreign office as a “notorious ass.” That the incident has been regarded by this government as a warlike act by Sweden was absolutely denled. What may develop is a different thing. At present there has been no change in the position of the two govern- ments. This government has attempt- ed no restriction on free commmunica- tion between Swedens repres and the government and ther 5 No indication that any would he imposed. This goverment regards the entire question as a more direct grievance of the Allies than of the United States. Whether this government got the despatches it published from its own agents or from those of one of the Allies remained a secret. Refusal also was made to discuss the question as to whether all the information in possession of the department had been made public. TORN MEAL CHEAPES for Than in Wheat. ‘Washington, Sept. 10.—Corn meal even -at the present high prices is cheapest of nutritious foods, accord- ing to Herbert Hoover, who in a statement, urged more general use of corn meal for making bread. “There is twice as much nutritive value in a dollar’'s worth of corn meal as in a dollan's worth of wheat bread at present prices,” said Mr. Hoover, “agnd corn must play a very impor- tant part in the congervation of wheat products. There are four bush- els of corn raised in this country to every one of wheat, and corn meal is as good for food as is wheat.” Increased use of fish as a food also is urged. Dollar HORACE F. WALKER DEAD. Hartford, Sept- 10.-——Horace F.

CONSULS OF FUTURE WUST KNOW TRADE nized As Chief Asset Washington, Sept. 10.—Training for foreign service is discussed in Bulletin 37, 1917, just issued by the Bureau of Educatian of the department of the interior. This bulletin gives an ac- count of the recent conference on this subject, which was held in the city of ‘Washingtton, on invitation of the commissioner of = education in co- operation with the director generai of the Pan American Union, the director of the consular service, the chief of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce, and the organizing secre- tary of the canference, Dr. Glen Levin Swiggett, assistant secretary general of the second Pan American scientific congress. The bulletin prints in full the addresses of the director of the consular service and the president of the national foreign trade council. “Training for foreign service,” says Dr. Swiggett, Who prepared the bul- letin, “must be based upon satisfactory courses in commercial education. In- dustry, trade, and diplamacy are working conjointly in creating a new international policy for the nations of the world. The technique of com- merce must be familiar to the consul and diplomat of the future. The social and religious welfare of a nation in foreign fields, with or without the su- pervision or: patronage o the govern- ment, can not be efficient without training in foreign. rélations courses based on the fundamentals of com- mercial education.” The address of the director of the consular service, Mr. Wilbbur J. Carr, deals at length with the functions of consuls of the United States, the or ganization and administration of the consular service, and the qualifications for entrance. Mr. Carr does not ac- cept the view that business experience is indispensable to a successful con- sular career. - “Some of our business men,” he says, “are fond of the view that the cansular service should be made up of men who have had prac- tical business experience, and this view exists ‘not only to some extent in the United States but also in Germany and Great Britain, and presumably In France and other countries. It is based, however, on the fact that busi- ness men see only one phase of the activities of consuls, name that of direct promotion of commerce, and they overlook several other important duties of consuls. Another objection to the proposition that consuls should be trained business men is that the gavernment will never be able to in- duce a large number of men of a high order of ability to give up the inde- pendence and rewards of a successful private business for, the meager com- ' pensation now or likely to be offered, and the unsuccessful or mediocre busi- .ness man is not wanted.” Wil Train Men for Work. Enlightened business men of the United States, as well as of other commercial nations, are of one mind in regard to the necessity and value of adequate. educational Preparation for business, domestic and foreign, and nearly all countries are already making plans to establish courseg of study that will meet the business needs of these countries, particularly in the field of export. James A. Far- rell, president of the National Foreign Trade Councll, in the course of his remarks, sums up this situation as follow; . “Those who are taking the initial steps by creating export departments in their organizations and adjusting or changing their products to meet conditions prevailing in the markets they would reach, are, first of all con- fronted by the problem of obtaining workmen, office men, salesmen and executives trained to handle their business, a\difficulty which, it is safe to say, but few companies find-easy of solution. This condition prevails because the foreign trade of the United States is in its infancy and only recently has the question of special training been considered by public men, corporations, public men, corporations, public schools and universities. We are only just realizing that this is one of the handicaps we have been under in the competition with our Knowledge of Commerce Recog- | European commercial rivals and this | is why banking, shipping, exporfing’ e i 2 TRANING OF NURSES ploying an ever-increasing number of | foreign-born persons who acquire the ' 1 requisite special training in schools, NEE universities and business offices in | ] 4 2 England, Germany and France.” i e e | e e a1s - STATE AID FOR ROADS ;New Britain Hospital Willing to Highway Commissioner to Warn Cities Accep[ Ganmdflles | and Towns and Borough of Nauga- & i !
