This has in- volved this country both directly and indirectly, but it has also cencerned other countries, beth those which are allied with us in the war and those which had decided upon maintaining neutrality. That mass of diplomatic correspond- ence which the secret service came into possession of has displayed German activity in no uncertain light. It has been opened up for public inspecticn bit by bit as conditions required, the schemes which Germany was practic- ing in order to strike the ememy in the back. Count Luxburg proves to have been a master hand at this work except when it came to keeping it se- cret.

The large number of protests which have come from all sections of the country east of the Mississippi show what a reception the order of the fuel administrator for the closing of in- dustries has received. The opposition to it is still further reflected in the action of the senate in asking for a postponement for a period of five days. This was apparently for the purpose of determining whether the adminis- trator is justified in his action. sine2 AMBASSADOR NAON'S RETURN. Thae return of Ambassador Naon to Argentina is bound to be watched with much interest in view of the effect which it may have upon that country's administration. Ambassador Naon has been in close touch with the Count Luxpurg affair. He was aware of it the eloquent and with the above title. vigorous language a Americans should know. tracts follow: The German Americans are the pris- oners of an illusion, tied hand and foot by sentimentalities. - The majority of them are not really pro-German. Even the greater part of them who growl at America and noisily applaud every misrepresentation of our government and our aims, do not really want Ger- many to defeat the United States.

What America offered seemed then of greater value than what Ger- many offered. They came to America, and they were evidently not disap- pointed, for they remained. They and their children recognized that what America gave was to them of greater food, bloating, it was impossible for Mr. Garfleld to convince the senatcrial committee of the necessity of his step. Thoze who look upon the action as calamitous are those who have heretofore been ardent supporters of the administration. The order of the coal administrator has brought to a head a state of af- fairs which has been developing for a long time. Months ago it was appar- ent that the fuel situation was serious. It was likewise recognized that the transportation problem was a huge one and yet the steps which have bkeen taken by the government to overcome them have failed of success. No bet- ter evidence of this is needed than the declaration of Mr, Garfield that the carrying out of his order is impera- tive. This must be taken to mean that he sees no other possible way of meet- long before the telegrams were made public. He advised his country to sever relations with Germany and in view of the attitude which has been taken there he has resigned his post. That he is a highly capable and effi- cient representative has long been un- derstood., Argentina does not want to lose his services and his resignation has not been accepted. He has, how- ever, gone home for a conference with his president and while it is declared that he will be at Buenos Aires but a few days, there are reasons to believe that unless he can be convinced that the future policy of his country will be more in accord with what he stands for he will not return.

EDITORIAL NOTES. Every week has its holiday now. It's going to be a great way to slide over biue Monday. Where are you planning to spend your five days’ vacation? At present we are spending at the rate of two hundred millions sterling west. This is reflected in the move which has already been made to in- crease the strength of the army by 450.000 men to be drawn from the im- portant industries of the country if it is necessary. Whether the German drive develops in any such proportion as it is prom- ised or expected does not overcome the necessity of making adequate preparations to meet it. Great re- sponsibllity rests upon Great Britain. It has already enrolled over flve and a half milllon men and it has been the financial backer of other nations allied with it, but it is nevertheless cognizant of its duty and intends to perform it to the best of its ability. This of course does not mean that the other memberg of the entente have not or will not do their part. Relianca is placed upon that but it is ne¢essary that Great Britain make a still greater effort to bridge the gap until the as- sistance which is coming from this country is ready for the service. Germany of course intends to strike before this will be avallabie and it can- not help being felt that it is necessary for the United States to bend every energy to do not only what it Is doing but everything that is expected of it. The existing situation is due to the conditions in Russia and the help which they have'given to Germany. It thereforo remains for the allies to as- sume the increased burden. AN UNFORTUNATE DISPUTE. It is a decidedly unfortunate situa- tion which has been created by the New England Westinghouse company relative to the paymentS which have been made by the 3,000 employes which it discharged on the sudden v-rmina- tion of the work of producing rifles for Russia, and in regard to the bo- nuses which the men had been given to understand that they would re- cetve, A great many of the employes of that company, in common with those of other companies, purchased Liberty bonds under the easy payment plan which was offered to them.
