An announcement which ought to
go a long way toward clearing up the
flood of false stories which are com-

German government, following the
severing of diplomatic relations, is
that which states that the wireless
service between the countries v.a
Sayville will be tried out on a less
restricted basis This does not mean
that ancensored dispalchea will be
allowed to be sent, or that there will comm
be any inclination to let any secrets measu

Foreign governments have bee'i

language calculated, however, to make
our purpose and our Justification
clear. The cauae of our new policy j
Is "the announcement of the Imperial
German government on Jan. 21. 1917
that all ships, those of neutrals in-
cluded. met within certain zones of
the hi*h seas would be sunk without .
any precaution being taken for the'
safety of the persons aboard, an l
without the exerciae of visit an I
search."
The facts are all here The law i«
presumed to be too well known to be
quoted We shall not argue these
long-determined matters. The barred

denied or abridged by this country-
its existence Is implied, in fact. But
what the Germans announce they1
will do—what they are doing, indeed
—Is as far outside of the exercise of
this right ag it is outside the defini- j
ton of a blockade.
Hence "the government of th"
Vnited States has dotermined to
place upon all merchant vessels sail-
ing through the barred areas an
armed guard for the protection of the
vessels and the lives of the persons
on board."
Here again the language u com-
prehensive. Our government does
more than authorize merchantmen to
protect themselves. It takes no risk
of sea lawyers arguing that our mer-
chantmen will possess a piratical
stntus. They may be private vessels.
Nit they are guarded and armed by
ti* government. The words "armei

of guns and navy gunners to ufc
them. And the course of action may
