London is asking what the United States is going to do in the Lusitania affair. What did Great Britain do to guard against the disaster? That question is being asked by Americans every where. The British Admiralty knew that German submarines were lurking in the waters where the Lusitania was sunk. Before the Lusitania sailed it had had plain warning of an intend ed attack. Only the day before the disaster a vessel was torpedoed near by off the Irish coast. The British Admiralty had every reason to be on the alert. It could oasll.v have spared a few torpedoboat destroyers to con voy the Lusitania from Fastnet to Liverpool.

The Germans seem to have set their trap carefully and without molesta tion. They had timed the coming of the Lusitania and awaited the mo ment to strike the fatal blow. They did not even take the trouble to con ceal" the whereabouts of their sub marines. How could the British Ad miralty, short of criminal negligence, permit the Lusitania unwatched to pass through those dangerous waters into the trap that was set? Was it by accident or a stupid lack of fore sight that the giant liner was left un protected against attack in broad day light and sent to the bottom? The British Admiralty played di rectly into the hands of the German submarines. By the exercise of ordi nary precautions it might have saved the Busitania and all who perished.

Bells and other brass fixings have been removed. The officials claim that the room occupied by these old engines is needed for oth er equipment. Standing of the Crews HARRISRURG Sllll'.

Excellently Worded Henry Bane "Wilson, former ambas sador to Mexico, said: '/The note to Germany is an excel lent. worded state document. Amer icans generally desire peace, hut not at a sacrifice of honor and dignity, and tho note seems to express this atti tude. "If the situation develops to that point where it is impossible to avoid conflict, the American people will stand solidly behind the government. "In sucli an event, ancestry, reli gion and politics will have, in my opinion, absolutely no influence on the attitude of our citizenry, 'hyphenated' or otherwise." Dr. Hill Talks Dr. John Wesley Hill, of New York a former Harrlsburg minister, said: ' "It is to be hoped that this crisis will be passed without a serious break- In the longstanding friendship exist ing between Germany and the United States.

TO PLACE LAIS ALONG CANAL Workmen Dredging Out Bed of Stream; Ground Being Placed Along Banks If one of Steelton's old residents should return to the borough In the near future, chances are that they would ask what had become of the old Pennsylvania Canal and Its gar bage-lined banks that in the olden days flowed south from Swatara street to Highspire. Gradually this old eyesore is being removed by a gang of workmen em ployed by the Pennsylvania Steel 'Company. A beautiful stretch of lawn and a few floyver beds along the banks of a deep, placid body of clear water, will take its place. Front this long lake-like bod'- of water the Pennsylva nia Steel plant will draw the water needed In the operation of its many boilers—just as the old canal once did. For many years there has been an agitation against the old canal. A few weeks ago the Steel company put to work a gang of men, dredging out the stream and placed the dredged ground along the east side of the canal. From Mohn street to belowM'hamhers street the banks have been improved, a fill some fifteen feet from the curb has been made and already some grass seed has been planted. Later on the flower beds may be added and places will be erected for passengers to alight from trolley cars.
