HE changed and chastened attitude of the German Govern-| ment toward this nation ix again apparent in the official warning issued through the German Embassy to German citi gens in the United State “In consequence of cases which Lave vccurred of late the German Ambassador bas sent instructions to all German Con suls in the United States to strongly impress upon German citi | zens living in their districts that It is their duty scrupulously | to obey the laws of the ftate in which they reside.” | This is the first time the Imperial Government has clearly exe | pressed itself regarding the lawless plots and violations of American neutrality which culminated recently in the exposure of the ship bomb conspiracy and the conviction of the couspirators. Since Germany's surrender to this nation’s point of view as to the| | the Sussex case, there have been unmistakable signs that the German!

The German Chancellery has had sense to see that it could make but slow progress toward this end were Americans to be further an- noyed by German plotters and bomb setters suspected of being even indirectly its agents.

ERMISSION to tap telephone wires and listen to private con- Pp versations ought obviously to be restricted with extraordinary care. The Police Department and the telephone companies divide a responsibility on this point which they should be made to feel. If the Thompson committee, by disclosing where either have been lax in permitting unwarranted eavesdropping by wire, can fix and emphasise that responsibility, it can perform a real service. On the ether band, conclusions that all listening by wire ia ecan- ena eught to be prohibited are hasty and foolish. For the pro- ee Ae cae coamantie eai the fexthocaseo of fuotion ang often be highty destreble and necessary to get evidence by tapping telephone wires. Any argument against this method, if carried to ite logical extreme, would condemn a private telephone company for furnishing the police or the District Attorney with a record of calls, which, as everybody knows, is now an accepted and highly important means of ecouring evidence against criminals. If it fe im the interest of justice and public safety for a detective to go tnto « restaurant and try to overhear the private talk of crooks ee conspirators over a neighboring table, why should it be eny lees 20 40 geek to discover and defeat their plote by tapping a telephone? Safeguard the practice against misnec. But don’t let excite- ment get the better of common sense in judging its necessity. ———— Excurstons to the Siege of Prall Island should prove popular with New Yorkers. ————— 4 —__—_—_ UP-STATE TO THANK. SSEMBLYMAN JOSEPH D. KELLY, author of the bill to curb auto epeeding in this city, declares The Evening World was right in saying that up-State meddling twisted the measure into a form which the Governor had to veto. “When I first prepared this bill with the approval of the * New York Police Department,” Assemblyman Kelly asserts, “it applied to the whole State alike. Every automobile operator, whether city owner of a limousine, rich man’s son with a racing car, or farmer with a Ford, had to be licensed to run his machine.” F i 8 sti 4 a, | “Well, it is possible something ts But in this shape up State legislators would have none of ie ee Peete gues Not for us or our families, they said, ‘Make it apply only to resi-| posner. dents of New York City, and we'll lot it through.” “We shall see.” Ellabelle Mae Doolittle — By Bide Dudley—— Copyright, 1916, by The Prem Publishing Ce, (The New York Kvening World), ULABELLE MAE DOOLITTLE, the poetess with @ heart and a soul, addressed the Live and Let Live Section of the Delhi Women's Betterment League Wednesday on the subject of naming babies.
