Abstract

Editorial Paragraphs

This article focuses on several political development issues. The genius of German officialdom for doing the wrong thing at the wrong time was never displayed to better effect than in the announcement to the British that Germany is building submarines. The Germans may argue that they are logical, and that equality obviously must include this forbidden weapon, but they could have done nothing more skillfully calculated to estrange what was left of British good-will. The Aldermanic committee investigating work and home relief in New York City will probably soon disband for lack of additional appropriation. One believes that all intelligent people will welcome its dissolution. The investigation has in the main been a Tammany show, for the Hall has been extremely eager to get its hands on the 12,000 jobs involved.
