The new automobile law passed by the last general assembly, carrying such changes as were considered ad- visable from the law as it has exist- ed in the past, is now in effect. Among other alterations is that con- cerning the passing of trolley cars which are standing to allow passengers alight and get aboard. In such in- s it is required that all auto- come to a stop ten feet from rear of the car and then proceed ate in passing the car. Not a few accidents have occurred and sev- resulted from the failure on the part of auto drivers to give proper consideration to humanity un- der these conditions. There has been a disposition on the part of too many drivers to place the entire burden of responsibility upon the patron of the electric cars. Proper regard for the rights of others have been glaringly lacking to such an extent that new legislation to cover such contingen- cies s required. It is needless to say that the change in the law was made with the idea that it should be observed. The new statute having gone into effect, it is therefore important that each and every driver should acquaint himself with its provisions and use his ut- most endeavors to comply with its re- quirements. A great many have al- ways taken just such precautions and can be expected to now that the law is in operation, but for those who are inclined to disobey there should be strict enforcement and this in partic- ular upon narrow streets, where the danger is always the greatest. There ought, however, to be little occasion for, arrests in enforcing the observance of such a sensible and reasonable high- way regulation. Every auto driver should however acquaint himself with the new requirements. WALSH’'S BAD JUDGMENT. Perhaps Chairman Walsh of the fed- eral relations commission thinks that tho people of this country and those before whom he speaks have the utmost confidence in his utterances. If so, that idea should have been dissipated long ago. Perhaps he relies upon his statements being believed because he has been singling out for attack the Rockefellers, but there again he is mis- taken, for the American people de- mand first of all a square deal and whether it is a Rockefeller or any other citizen, he has a right to ex- pect and should get a fair hearing and fair treatment. If he is going to be judged, he must be judged rightly and not by the distortion of facts. To make statements based upon testi- mony given in the hearings of the commission which are not in accord- ance with the facts belittles not only -woman agd two children were killed. the position which Chairman Walsh holds, but it discloses his unfitness for the place and his abuse of the office. the nation who appointed him and the members of the commission with whom he sits. t Invariably a public address by Mr. Walsh has been followed by absolute denials upon the part of the people he has attacked or upon the part of those ne has chosen to quote. The latest 1ddress made Sunday is now confront- *d not only with the denial of the twisted testimony which he endeavors lo fasten upon an official associated with the Rockefellers, but with the wctual testimony taken from the sten- sgraphic report of the hearing. How he can expect such declarations to be believed is bevond comprehension. | facts Germany nhopes to dispose of the It is an imposition upon the head of|fact that there were over one hun- From one in his position it is to be expected that there would be a strict adherence to the truth. His entire at- titude, however, already casts suspi- cion upon the forthcoming report of that body unless the other members are careful to make clear that no such errors of judgment are committed in its compilation. WE WANT THE BEST. If, as it is claimed, the submarine ‘begins to approach the obsolete siage after it has been in operation for a period "of two years, one of the best reasons is advanced for the direction of greater attention to this branch of our navy. It adds further support to the criticisms which have been made in the last few months of the condi- tion of this country’s submarine flotilla ; both from those who have been direct- ly connected therewith and those who have acted for the welfare of the country. If the recent maneuvers were necessary to bring their exact condition to the authorities who had previously refused to listen thereto, it is unfortunate that such a trial was not resorted to- months ago. In view of the disclosures and de- spite the attitude which he has main- tained in the past, Secretary Daniels apparently recognizes the -course he has followed has not displayed the best judgment. Disposed to look upon the criticisms as purely political, he has been inclined to ignore them and to even cut down the recommendations of the naval board. He has ordered now in the way of investigations what should have been started n:onths ago. The submarine is as important a part of the navy for this country as it is for any of the rest. It has been shown by the war across the water that it Plays an Invaluable part and, with a country having a coastline like this, great dependence can be placed upon these undersea vessels built upon the latest lines and equipped with the latest devices. Every idea which can be gained and incorporated in the specifications for the new vessels of this type which are about to be built contribute so much to the country's defense. Vessels of the obsolete pat- terns are not wanted. Ncne but the best will do. MUST MEET RESPONSIBILITIES. ‘When a Berlin newspaper declares that Germany cannot be frightened into accepting the views of this coun- try concerning submarine warfare, it takes a view which is entirely wrong. There is not and never has been any hope of frightening Germany into do- ing anything. This country does not operate upon that basis. It has had no such thought and does not propose to act as a bully or intimidator. It is not engaged in staging bluffs. Instead of trying to frighten Ger- many into doing something this coun- try is only endeavoring to have Ger- many live up to its agreements, re- spect international law and give prop- er consideration to the rights of hu- manity. If compliance with such de- mands is being frightened into action no country ought to be averse to be- ing frightened into doing what is right. Germany has proclaimed to the world and affixed its official seals thereto that it 11 abide by certain agreed conditions in case of war. It has subscribed to the rights of neu- trals on the high seas and to the methods by which merchant vessels and their crews shall be treated. Yet in spite of all this it has chosen to ignore its word. It has by its sub- marine policy gone entirely contrary to what it agreed to. It has throwh to the wind its better judgment and not only used inhuman and unjusti- fied methods against its enemy, but it has included therein the neutral na- tions even to the loss of American property and many lives. The idea of trying to frighten Ger- many or any other nation is beneath this country. It is in reality trying to bring Germany to its senses and a realization of the fact that it has re- spogsibilities affecting this country as a neutral nation which it is not meet- ing, but which should be met. EDITORIAL NOTES, The city electhon comes but once a year and it is a good idea to make it a point to be at the polls that day. The airship raid on London was a sreat military accomplishment. A man, Holland is preparing for the spring rush of tourists. It is an excellent time, however, to stick to New Eng- land. It might be a good idea to give the streets a good flushing instead of keep- ing the stagnant water for drinking purposes. Austria declares that all attacks have been checked at the border, but Italy continues to secure control of Aus- trian cities. The man on the corner says: It is a lucky thing for one’s neighbor that he doesn’t have to stand the blame for the weather. A western centenarian prescribes smoking onions for long life. He may also know -that it is a quick method of losing friend: The idea of permitting firearms to go into Mexico that the war spirit might be killed off does not appear to have succeeded. Norwich has an opportunity to find out when a jitney is not a jitney, but what would happen to the electrics if they tried such a game? The arrest of some of the English newspaper publishers indicates what is meant by the statement that the cen- sorship is to be made more rigid. Attention now turns to the Balkan states and naturally they are seeking agreements before plunging into the caldron. Safety first cannot be ig- nored. ‘When it comes to getting down to dred American lives taken by the ex- pression of regrets. If the people of Germany have been furnished only such facts concerning the sinking of the Lusitania as that government has used in its recent note, there may be a partial explana- tion for their justification of the deed. The firing at the Nebraskan and the chasing of the Megantic indicates that German submarine activity is based not upon making inquiry first, but| upon torpedoing the vessel and thus obviating the formality of obeying the law. Julia McKeever was the happiest girl in the world when Jimmy Sands asked her to marry him, for two reasons—she loved Jimmy, and she was going to be in the Sands family. In Westmore the Sands family had become almost an institution. There was the patriarch, old Taylor Sands, a man of money and churchly reputa- tion; young Taylor Sands, who had married the rich Miss Chisholm and was noted for raising blooded stock on one of the finest farms in that sec- tion; Sylvia Sands, who had merried Clinton Eliot the clothier, and Jimmy, the youngest, Who was merely a black sheep and no Sands at all, being a nephew, and adopted out of charity. A lifetime of assoclation with the Sands had no obvious effect upon Jimmy, who persisted in being dull and commonplace and in sticking to his job as a railroader. In the light of his past it was no surprise when he got himself engaged to old John McKeever's Julia. The family accepted Julia. They prided themselves upon being mag- nanimous and lofty-minded. It was unpleasant of course, that Jimmy should behave so, especially as they had taken him in and given their name and stamped him with their own pure mark of quality. That he could not live up to his obligations was no fault of theirs. It did seem too bad that he should select Julia McKeever to be his lifemate when there were plenty of really worthy girls whom he might have hed. How- ever, since he had pledged himself to her, they must make the best of it. Julia understood perfectly that she was ascending high when she stepped into the Sands family. And with all her heart she longed to be worthy of the great honor of bearing the prec- ious name. She was only twenty and Jimmy was her first lover. She would have been so glad if he had been just plain_ Jimmy, without the corollary of Sands at all, but as it was she meant to live up to her obligation. Her brief engagement was a cy- clonic affair. Mrs. Sands, her daugh- ter and her daughter-in-law took her in charge. They attended to all the arrangements. They bought the gown and had it made according to their own ideal: nothing was left to Julia herself. She wept often and bitterly. In truth, she went to the altar with damp eyelashes. After a week’s honeymoon she came back to stand in her place and shoulder her burden. She and Jimmy lived in the little house Jimmy had begun paying for before they were married. ~The little house was the result of one of Jim- my’s sireaks of independence. Usually he deferred to the family, but Julia learned to her surprise that occasion- ally he acted outright for himself. At heart Julia herself was the most in- dependent little woman but she never allowed her independence to get in the way of her success with the fam- ily. Not that she was successful openly—she merely, as she expressed it, blundered along. Her attitude was one of constant deference and apol- ogy. A thousand times she was repri- manded, sYghted, condescended to. She bore it all for Jimmy's sake. The family was I e suffered from a great sterms of the spirit.

Let me quote from my own paper in vart these words: “And the id applicant, now here in this court, declares on oath that he does abso- lutely and entirely renounce and ab- jure all allegiarce ang fidelity to ev- ery foreign Drince, Potentate, State and Sovereignty whatever, and par- ticularly to the King of — and be also declares on oath that he will support the Constitution of the United States of America. * * * * Is this only a “scrap of paper,” or is it a sacred vow and a solemn agree- ment with this country of our adop- tion, whose benefits and privileges we enjoy? To me, and it must be the right and true interpretation of t weans “just what it says.” While I love the land of my birth, where friends and kindred il live, and while I respect its government and ruler, T have by my own free will and act, and by a solemn oath and a sign- ed contract, forever severed myself froms my Fatherland, as far as any allegi- ance to it is concerned. I am no longer a subject of that country, but have become an American citizen, to enjoy ail its privileges, and to be faithful to this land even as if it were the land of my birth. My native land may be in jeopardy. Enemies threat- en it, or even invade it, and my dear father and mother be driven from their home, but I have no right whatever to leave this country, return and take up arms against the enemies of my native land. for I have specially for- sworn all allegiance to that particu- lar country, nor have I any right to take partisan sides for that coun- try in word or deed while I reside here. And if this country becomes enzaged in warfare against my native land, then my former ruler and coun- trymen become my enemies, because they are enemies of this country, and if called to take up arms against the enemies of this land, then I am to stand shoulder to shoulder with the soldiers of this nation, and turn as an enemy against the land of my birth. Am I right? It sounds hard, rigid, and contrary to nature, but duty is often so and there can be no middle ground. There is no other alternative, we are either wholly Americans or not Americans. Of our own free will and desire came we hither, and by act of oath and contract have become inseparably one with every native born citizen. The citizen paper is not empty phraseclogy, to be lightly cast aside when irksome and I hold that every one who violates the oath therein subscribed to becomes a traitor to their country. Many men in the present crisis have gone across the ocean in order as they say, to “rally to the colors of their native land, and on the.face of it, it sounds patriotic, noble, but many of these men are citizens, and have no right whatever to do so. As citizens, there are only the colors of the Stars and Stripes to rally under, in the present unsettled state of affairs. The very country they have gone to help, may turn as the enemy of this countiry, ard I can only see in their act a oken oath and pledge. When I signed the document that made me a citizen, I became an American and am np longer a Ger- man, or Swede, of Englthman, nor any other, but every tie except birth- an American, and as an Alien Citizen, T call on all others who have taken their oath of allegiance, to be true to that oath in every sense of its wording and loyal to this country in word and deed at whatever the cost. \ “ALIEN CITIZEN.” Norwich, Conn., June 1. 1915. ter and son, when they grew old enough to listen to her. She trained them to revere the family, but she never ceased to rejoice that the girl was_a replica of herself, and the boy of his father. They had providen- tially -escaped the stamp of the ‘Sandses. Sixteen years passed. Jimmy had paid for his little house and saved some money. He kept his finances separated from those of the family. He was poor, and made no pretence of being otherwise. A dinner party for the family cost him severe econo- my afterward, but the dinner party was a branch of the family institution and could not be dispensed with. During those 16 years Jimmy and Julia had discussed every phase of their joint lives save one. They never discussed the family. _ Julia forebore on Jimmy’'s account, Jimmy forebore for some reason of his own. Perhaps he felt that the affairs of the family were, like Scripture, too sacred to be discussed by one so humble as him- self. He probably never suspected that Julia pounded the old cushion, many times recovered for that pur- pose. And Julia never suspected that he did aught but reverence and adore his people. When the patriarch’s wife died sud- denly and the patriarch followed her in less than a month, there came a revelgtion. Taylor Sands had been a too’ indulgent father. He had de- nied his own children nothing. The fortune that he was supposed to bave had gone into blooded stock, new buildings, trips abroad and other ex- penses. He went so suddenly that there was no time for preparation. The collapse of the inadequately prop- Pped structure of the family’s finances occurred immediately thereafter. The great show farm had never been self- supporting; neither had the fashiona- ble clothing establishment. For time the air was full of ruin and di appointment and despair and Jimmy went calmy on his way. had never expected to benefit by his foster father’s death. He was not dis- appointed.

She drew a deep breath. “Never mind the family now, dear,” she said. E “But don’t you fee] you're free for the first time?’ Jimmy questioned, looking into her eyes. ‘Oh, Jimmy, then you've understood the to all along!” Julia cried in astonish- ment. “You bet I've understood—for six- teen years; ever since I came home unbeknownst to vou one afternoon and found you pounding that old red cushion.

AUSTRIAN CROWNLAND OF GOERZ AND GADISCA More Important to Dual Monarchy Than New York Is to This Country. (Special to The Bulletin.) Washington, D. C. June 2.—Parallel- ing the mighty drive from west to east that the Germans are making in Galicia, hundreds of thousands of fresh, well-equipped Italian troops are pressing a rapid mvasion against vitai points in Austria’s Mediterranean em- vire, and, according to news dispatch- s, the early great battles in this new ar theatre will find the Italians wide- ly spread over the first of the coast- land provinces, well on their way to- ward ‘Triest, a port more valuable to. Austria than is New York to the Unit- ed States.

Vineyards are everywhere, and the wines rival any of those produced in the Dual Mon- archy. The climate of the valley which almost bisects the crownland is one of many lovely northern stretches where the softest weather reigns. “In the fest and north, and in the east, the country is mostly mountain- ous, or bewilderingly broken and hilly. Higher mountain ranges almost en- vlose the crownland, the Julian Alps ng it in the north, the Venetian breaking deeply into its eastern border, and mountain series running along its eastern boundary. Within the province are a number of peaks of more than 8,000 feet. The chief rivers of the province are the Isonzo and the Timavo, the last named, the river that fully formed from the mountain side, the mysterious river to which the ancients paid wholesome respect. “The Goerz and Gradisca crownland is not inhabited principally by Italians. More than two-thirds, about 68 per cent of the peopie are Sloven:s, and the remainder are Italians, with an intersprinkling of some 2,400 Germans. The population, according to most re- cent statistics, 325,000 people. The population is mainly an agricultural one, Dbeing distributed through the provinces in small villages. Goerz, the capital of the crownland and its largest city, only has a population of 26,000. Other principal towns are Cor- mons, Monfalcone, Kirchheim, Gadisca and Aquileia. Not one of these places counts 6,000 citizens. “The crownland has no port of any consequence, its short coast line lack- ing any good harbor site. Grado, its first port, is accessible to the larger kind of coasting vessels. This place has been reported as captured by the Italians.
