PLOT WILL OPEN i
AMERICA'S EYES,
BRITISH BELIEVE
["Fantastic Villainy" Branded
as German Intrigue Declare
English Newspapers
By Associated Press
London, March 2. The disclosure
of tho German plot In America con
tinues the chief theme In the news
I and editorial columns of the newspa
pers. The Westminster Gazette,
which brands tho plot as "fantastic
! villainy," says:
"It has all the clumsiness, all the
| malice and shallow cunning of the
I other machinations of the same kind
J that we disclosed in Egypt, India and
! Ireland. It is thoroughly cbaracter
i istic of the apostles of Kulture and
i of the lvalser, who Is the protector
j of Islam and Inciter of holy wars by
j eastern races against Europeans. It
! is also characteristic that they are not 1
! even able to keep their plots to them
j selves, but are discovered before they
have begun, with the incriminating
documents upon them."
| The German document, the Gazette
j says, will show Americans that "Ger
| many's machinations and ambitions
] art not confined to Europe. Asia and
; Africa. It shows them what is her
j real estimate of the Monroe Doctrine
and how far she would respect It If
victory should give her the opportun
i Ity of flouting It. * • • Clumsy
| and stupid as this document is there
| could hardly be more explosive matter
I packed Into the short space, or so
j much warning offered in a few words
| to Americans of what is at stake for
them in the European war.
It Is Significant
"The wickedness of secret diplo-
I macy " is the moral the Manchester
I Guardian draws and which it believed
i most people will draw, from the ac
| count of German intrigues in Mexico:
"President Wilson would seem to
I have drawn it," the newspaper says,
"and we are inclined to think the pub
lication of the story the most most
significant thing that has happened
between neutrals and Germany since
the United States broke oft diplomatic
relations with Germany."
While the Guardian contends that
German methods are worse than those
of the diplomacy of other nations it
believes the vices "which are nauseous
in the Mexican story are inherent in
every system of secret diplomacy,"
and it udvocates the cleansing of di
plomatic stables after war and a re
, turn to candor, integrity and straight
forwardness in international affairs.
"One cannot read a story like this,"
tire newspaper adds, "without falling
iin love with the virtues of candor,
simplicity and loyalty in public affairs '
and not only loving them as fair vlr- j
tues, but honoring them for their ex- |
traordinary efficiency as instruments |
j of human relationship."
Five-Minute Talks by
National Leaders
By DR. J. X. IIURTY
ilmliaua Director of Public Health>
Work.
Fully one-half of all taxes go to pay i
for the results of sickness and disease
; which in a higher state of civilization I
I we would not have.
| Now, there is insanity. Mental dis
| ease is fhg term the doctors now pre-!
Iter. Where does It come from? Why
do we have mental disease?
j But first as to its cost to Indiana.
|ln round figures we plank down in
\ cash (2,000,000 annually to care for
I the insane. But that is not all the
cost, for there are 6,000 insane, all
! adults, and all withdrawn from pro-
I ductlve life.
| If each one earned SSOO per year—
i and this is a reasonable estimate —
; then the loss to the State 13 $3,000,000.
, The total loss due to Insanity is, there
fore, $5,000,000 each year. . j
Now, here is where it comes from, !
; and we are as stupidly indifferent to
: the cause and the loss as we are to
smoke and its loss. Twenty-five per
I cent, of insanity comes from syphilis,!
25 per cent, from alcohol poison, 351
per cent, is hereditary and the re-1
• mainder is such poisons as tjrphoid!
I poison, tuberculosis poison, diphtheria I
poison, scarlet fever poison, food poi
sons and drugs.
Please observe each cause may be j
largely controlled. Turn the problems)
| over to the health cranks, keep thoi
practical politicians at bay, and the |
! fearful annual loss would each year j
I grow less.
