further interference with United
States mails, has the tone of firmness
and is business like and therefore
should be admired be even those who
want not to credit the Wilson admin-
istrtion with it« dealings with Ger-
many. There is no good or sufficient
reason why the American government
should submit to the outrages of the
warring factions of the old countries.
It is not sanctioned by international
law or justified by the exigencies of
war. As pointed out by Mr. Lansing,
it occasions intolerable loss and in-
convenience to American business in-
terests, and the practice must be
stopped. Unless this demand is com-
plied with in a reasonable time, the
administration will be justified in
serving notice, as it did with Germany,
