Following the many attempts which have been made to destroy ships leav- ing these shores for Europe by means of bombs placed therein within the past few months, and the frequent ex- plosions which have taken place in ammunition plants, the arrest of Fay, ‘Scholz and Daesche, the first of whom claims to be a liegtenant in the Ger- man army points to- the confirmation of the belief that a well organized conspiracy exists in this country for the crippling of shipping and indus- tries without regard for the neutrality of this country or the loss of property ond life that is involved. , The confessions of the accused men, together with other evidence found in their possession, give promise of in- cluding others in. their schemes even *though their admissions they thus far cleafthe German ambassador and the naval attache who according’ to their own words had been informed of their intentions, but had advised against such work and suggested that they be carried out, if at all, against hostile Canada. Whether these are the true facts or not the advice was not taken. They preferred to operate here where they were sent as they claim by the secret service to cripple the sources of supply. Thelr discovery has come nome too soon and every effort should now bo made to determine how many others are involved in their schemes since the punishment which is awaiting those under arrest should not be with- held from any others who are involved. The need of greater vigilance in searching out just such conspirators, whether they are operating on their own initiative or prompted by Ger- many has long been recognized and upon the establishment of the facts they should be given the ful‘ penalty of the law. 17"+ average % average .....

In a large percentage of the cases this is due to the lack of precaution, the failure to pay sufficient attention to tho telling work that could be doje in the Way of prevention and the lack of the proper facilities for es- capq. What happened in Pittsburg is very similar ‘o that which occurrea in a tenement house in New York only a few days previous and in & general way a repetition of cases throughout the country. The fact that thgre was o feed store on the ground floor of the four story bullding in Pittsburs, where highly in- flammable material could be expected to be and furnish the means for a quick and disastrous fire was suffi- clent reason for taking every precau- tion against a fire and at the same time equipping the building with ade- quate fire cscapo facllities. That girls were forcéd to jump and others found doors shut against them with no other way of getting out recalls simflar fea- tures in the Triangle shirtwaist fac- tory In the metropolis a few years ag. That the Pittsburg loss of life was not greater than twelve is the only aston- ishing fact under the circumstances, for where conditions which prevailed trere are permitted little else can be expected. It is too much to expect the firemen to overcom ¢ the of such death trape, and too late to attempt - a remedy after ‘a fire breaks out. It is possible that Pittsburg has been taughf a les- son in this fegard even though it was B costly oge. JAPAN’S COTTON INDUSTRY.

It is probably apparent to Berlin by this time that the shooting of Miss Cavell, the British nurse, in Belgiunt, has brought about conditions which were not anticipated. According to the effort of the under secretary of foreign affaits in Germany her execution was necessary for the maintenance of the rules of war. It was considered neces- sary that there should be a lesson given to the women of Belgium which would cause any others who were en- gaged in such work to understand that such a penalty awaited them it they persisted. 1t is one of the cases where Ger- many. must..by. this: time realize that its adherence to-such harsh mieasures 15 *hound " to ‘react and that while it has susceeded in setting forth the les- son ‘which it considered so necessary it has at the same time made a mar- tyr of the woman who was laboring in_Belglum in 'the cause of humanity and that martyrdom is worse - than the { which “they sought to The killing of Bdith Cavell {5 not go. ing to be forgotten any more than will be the German idea.that that country had a right to set up its own rules of war and revise international law when |and where it desired.
