All the circumstances attending the affair had a vital relation to the attitude of the United States at a critical juncture. Whether the Arabic was sunk without warning or was con voyed by British warships, as other vessels recently have teen, affected the case materi ally. This was the worst of all times for the British censor to intrude. There has been far too much of this sort of British offici ousness in supervising the news for the use of the Ameri can press and the American public, and in this instance it was without warrant or ex cuse." If the British censors persist in such tactics it will be impos sible for Americans to rely on English sources for 'informa- overoast With the shadow t a srrov where the dreams come true at last. F.
