AS BRITISH PRESS
REGARD If. S. NOTE
"Standard" Warns Eng
land That American
Protest Should Not Be
Treated Lightly
SENTIMENT FOR
ALLIES WANING
Newspaper Declares Feeling in United
States Is Becoming More Pro
nounced for Germany and Says Un
cle Sam Shoiud Be Met Half War
London, Dec. 31, 3.13 A. M.—The
American note to Great Britain concern
ing the search of American vessels by
British warships is further dis'.-ussed by
the Loudon inorniug newspapers to
dav.
The "Standard" in an editorial warns
the country that the American protest
is a serious one and should not l>e treat
ed light hear tedly; that the sentiment
ir. the I'tiited States in favor of the
allies is less pronounced than it was
three months ago and that it is yielding
to a feeling in favor of tkrmauv as the
underdog in a tight against groat odds.
Therefore, the newspaper says, if any
solution is possible the United States
should be met half wav.
j A suggestion appears iu the "Morn
: ing Post" that a remedy for the griev
-1 auce of undue delay in searching ves
| sels would be to pass a short ac' in
Parliament giving the neutral trader
the right to come to a British court of
justice and by a process involving a
minimum of delay, to claim damages
arising from the detention of his vessel
or cargo.
Copper Exporters Not Ruined
The "Morning Post" contends edi
torially that American copper export
ers by no means have been ruined, de-
I daring that in September and October,
i 1913, they sold ten million rounds of
] copper to Italy, Holland, Norway and
| Sweden and that in the same months of
; 1914 t'iiey sold to the same customers
i fifty million pounds.
"We trust." .he editorial continues,
'"that the British government will ful
fill the whole letter of the law and give
I to President Wilson his full pound of
I flesh: but we ho;e there is euough of
! human nature iu the admiralty and the
. navy to arrange that all copper imports
iof neutrals and all their imports,
analagous to that of copper, shall sink
ito and remain at the normal peace
| level."
The "Daily Mail'' said it considers
j the question at issue much as of prin-
I dple. It protests against jetting needly
excited smout the note and informs
Americans that even from the stand
j point of their own interests it is rela
tively not a vita! matter, since far
j greater questions are on the anvil. It
| contends that in the victory of the al
| lies lies the security and well-being of
! the I'nited States and the triumpn of
I American conceptions of sodetv and
j government. The editorial concludes
i with the statement that t'ae allies are
fighting America's battles as well as
' their own. "but none the less it will be
i a good thing to get the awkward prob
| lem of contraband satisfactorily set
tled."
Underwriters Take a Hand
The "Times'' says that within the
! last few days London underwriters who
! are in close touch with American com
-1 merce have been conferring together in
au endeavor to find a modus vivendi
under which the objects both Great
Britain and the United States have at
heart with regard to the questions
raised in the American note could each
i be secured.
Lewis Einstein, of Xew York, who
has held various diplomatic posts under
the I'nited States government, writes
to the "Times" suggesting as a solu
; tion of the difficulty that Great Britain
i thould create a >.ourt of claims where
' neutrals could seek redress for injury
! resulting from blockades. He further
I proposes that American lawyer of recog
; nized standing be appointed by the Brit
| iah government as judge of such court
j with a legal adviser to inform the for
j eiga office of t'he American point of
; view. Mr. liinptrin suggests that men
j of the type of Joseph H. Croate and
, John Basset' Moore, a former coun
i selior of the State Department at \Vash-
I ington, would be suitable.
Comment By Dutch Papers
Th§ Hague, via London, De<\ 31.
2.59 A. M.—The Dutch papers, while
generally commenting upon the Ameri
can note, virtually agree as to the
main points brought out in the follow
ing editorial expressions in the Amster
dam "Alyemeen Haadelsblad:"
"The note sent to England but in
tended for the Powers of the tniple em -
tete is a remarkable symptom. In
America, as well as in other neutral
countries, the illegal measures taken
against American commerce has made
bad blood.
"The note ii not intended as a hos
tile act but is a warning and request
with a detailed resume of the com
plaints of American shippers. Hie in
tentions of the note are good.
Position of Neutral Shippers
'lt is well that Washington drew
the attention of the British government
to the difficult position of the neutral
shippers. But will the protest helpf We
be iev<j we are justified in doixbting
this is in the case of the protests of
the Netherlands, Sweden. Denmark and
Norway. So. this one will be shelved
because England will consider above all
any above the rights of neutrals, her
own interests wbivh are that nothing
which the Germans could use must be
permitted in the way of truffle. For this
the neutral states are sacrificed."
The Amsterdam "Tijd" says:
"It is shown that when its inter
ests demand such a course Washington
acts resolutely regardless of distinction
or persons. The protest of the note
against the manner in which England
wished to control the seas is proof of
this.
Drops Like a Bolt From Sky
"The exchange of memorandums be
tween America and England concern
ing the Ghent centenary is hardly over
when ttiis protect note dropped like a
bolt from the sky. It is superfluous to
point out the great importance of this
srtep on the part of America in behalf
of neutral trade. With anticipation we
a#ait John Bull's reply. Will Washing
ton be satisfied with the morsel with
which Mr. Asquith «nd Sir Edward |
Grey hitherto have placated small neu- |
tral countries when thev \oi-cod timely |
and humble complaints.
TO SAFEGUARD EMPLOYES
IN INDUSTRIAL PLANTS
Safety First Regulations Now Being la
sued by State Industrial Board Aft- ;
er Careful Consideration of All
Sides of Various Questions
After many months of industrious la- !
bor, rules ancl regulations for the safe
ty of employes in industrial plants
throughout Pennsylvania have been
adopted bv the Pennsylvania State In
dustrial Board. Tne result of their la
bors are being made known and through
DR. JOHN PRICE JACKSON i
an arrangement with the Star-lndenend- |
ent these rules will be printed. On
page 4 of this issue a draft of many 1
of the regulations appear.
The rules are of interest not only to \
the employe, but to the employer, as
both sides of the various situations !
were considered before any action was j
taken by the Board. Committee meet- ;
ings on all subjects -vere held, prelim
inary drafts were made on the proposed i
safety rnte>, hearings were held and ]
the result was obtained only after con- j
sidering the situation from all angles. 1
This work has been progressing un
der the direction of Dr. John Price
Jackson, Commissioner of Labor ami
Industry. At the present time a half ,
dozen safety meetings an 1 scheduled to ]
be held in the Capitol ouilding. at which |
regulations will be framed. t
The safety-first movement for indus
trial plants is one of the big things to- [
day in labor circles and it is»hoped by i
the members of the Industrial Hoard
that the publication of the rules that j
have so far been adopted will be care- j
fully considered. The regulations as
they stand in articles when they appear j
are" ironclad, but are subject to change
on petition to the Industrial Board. ,
After reviewing the petition, should
any be presented, the Board can call a |
hearing if it is deemed advisable^
A valuable reference can be made of
the various articles which will appear
from time to time under the "safety
first" caption if they be clipped and
placed in a scrap book. The first ar- j
tide appeared last evening and related j
to wood-working machinery.
