"Mr Proudfoot stated that there "were only thirty or forty present, the "fa0eisa there were over one hundred I "at tie meeting, and in . Proud - "foot's opening remarks ht congrat- "urated the association on he large "Attendance, and the Huron Expositor, "with no political leaning at the last "election, in its report of the meet- "irig, said it was largely attended. The above is part of . a statement which appeared in the London deity - papers, a short time ago, in answer te a Globe interview, given oat by MT. William Proudfoot. IVI.P.P., regarding the annual meeting of the Centre Hur- on' Liberal Association meeting held in Seaforth on May 28th, and made over the signatures of Mr. M. Murdie, President, and Mr. J. D. Hinchiey, 3rd Vice -President, of that Associa- tion. . We were always of the opinion that the Political leanings of the Exposi- tor were so well known that any com- ment regarding them was unneces- sary. However, if such is not the case, we have no hesitation iii fully and frankly,- re -stating them. The Expositor Is.no* and alwayit has been a 'believer ,in and supporter a the trail Liberal principles as laid down by thespplicy of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, and it will continue that support to the extent of its power as long as in its- lunnble opinicet.that ppliey is ad- hered to by the Liberal party, More than that, not only did the Ex.- poaitor support the Liberal-- policy both in its columns and apart from them at the last Dominion election, but it gave that support at the sacrifice of several hundreds of dollars to its advertising column, and , we can truthfully say that a likesupport was given. but by few of the so-called Liberal newspapers in the Province, and by fewer supporters of Liberal candidates at that election. To any person) who knows newspaper condi- tions since the beginning of the war, any further proof cif party loyalty is not necessarY, the opinion of the Presi- dent and. 3rd Vice President of the Centre Horon Reform Assocition to the contrary, notwithstanding. /MIMI! THE WAR SITUATION The long expected offensive on the Italian front was launched on Satur- day morning last along a seventy mile front, after a fierce artillery prepara- tion, and desperate fighting still con- tinues. It is stated that the Austri- ans have brought into action all their available forces in the hope of break- ing through the Italian lines and scor- ing such a decisive victory as- to put Italy out of the war. Sofar. how- ever, their aim and expectations have been far from realized, and although the situation is regarded as serious the allies have every eonfidence in the ul-qimate result. After. four days fighting the Austrians have not at- tained the objectives set for their troops to obtain, on Saturday, and al- though they have had some initial successes, me or two points, they have not been able to establish a firth footing in any of them and. have been forced to desperate efforts to retain their gains. These efforts are costing the enemy very heavy losses, in fact • the Austrian losses so far have been on. a ratio of five to one of those sus- s -Wined by the Allies. It is yet too ti early to prophesy who will be victori- t ous, but from the fighting so far it h would appear as if the Allies will be p able to' hold their own. Up fb the ti present the Austrians have not been r supported by Gerinan troops, but if j things break badly for them, Germany d will have to Come to her aid, and this G aid will have to come in the form of pi troops and guns from the Western tr - front, wh,kh Germany can ill afford to h spare, if she is to gain anything by th the wester offensive and the tremen- a dote; loss of life her armies have Suf- fered there. ac On the Western front the German to effensive has once more been brought w to a stand still by the Allies, and dur- p bag the past week most of the fighting u has been done by the Allies, who keep • nibbling away at the Gennan posi- w tions, taking prisoners and inflicting w a. steady flow of losses on the enemy er troops. The German drive, however, pr 15 not yet at an end, but where the al next niove will be made and when, are gi known only to the high German corn- do cand and even tie 'them probably de- pa peads largely on eircuinstances.-Shoulal fu the Austrians attain any measure of si succeis on the Italian front, we maY rest assured that the offensive o4 th west will be continued at once and ,eri redoubled force so as to prevent th Allies from sending reinforcements to Italy. On the other hand; should * Italian offensive go •against the Ally Germany, the western offensive 'eel . most likely be delayed; while German sends reinforcements to Austria. Bu as the situation now stands, with th addition of thousands of America troops now pouring into France, would appear that the Allies are in much better position to spare rein, forcements to. her friends than th Germans, 41111N111:1•11111010 th ef- fective. - el the satisfaction o eness, a.. vent f 1 hatred otfoul , Indeed, it is a de t. endertalte it, beta which ought to b 1 - re ends.

We ere now beginning t believe the incredible. We know, in deed, that the Gerrn.ans •have perpet tated them openly, defiently,deliber ately, boasting,ly. That these aim * I have failed to terrorize such peop as the English and the French, th. such crimes will fail to terrorize suc people as the Americans, makes l hard for us to believe that there ar people who could be intimidated; but b perpetrating these acts the German have told the world plainly that the themselves could be intimidated. And hard as it is, we mut again come to believe the inevitable: If the Germans can not be made to stop their cruelty in any other way— and so far they have not been stoppe reprisals, um*. ,_.:17ee frightened into Step ping it.

The very fact however, that men idtrink front doing theteathhige makes it all the more hon Grab% tor them to do AIM*, providing the acts themselies, are justifieblee Are -reprisals justifiable ?' The better word for the sort of ac popularly- called 'reprisal is retbrition. This is defined by Westlake as fol lows ;"Ittetorsion in war is the action o a beligerant against whom a law ha been broken, and who retorts by break ing the same or some other law in or der to compensate himself for th damage which he has suffered, and t deter his enemy front continuing o repeating the offense,' Professor Westlake points out that there is an analogy in national law in the prirbci pal that if one party to a contrac violates it the other party is released The reason why retortion in wile is sometimes necessary is very Ample Germany, for example, has broken the laws of nations in boniltins unde- fended English towns. How can she be stopped? England can not etop her by making war on her, because England is already at war with her, She might try to stop her by persuad- ing a neutral to intercede or to threat- en Germany with war if she does not stop breaking international law. For wo years and a half America, while a neutral, watched .Germanylereaking nternational taw right and left, and, hough we finally protested in cases where our own interests were involved tie failed to take any real measures to restrain Germany until we entered the war ourselveseavowedly for what Germany had done, not to England but to us. bombs on New York ✓ Switzerl ailed to do kinder similar circumstan- es. There lis only tine alternative left he qffended nation mutt take meas - res to make Grany realize that her olation of t e law of nations will ring evil consequences to herself, and at means retortion. Unless checked y retortion Germany can continue her trocities with impunity. . It is generally unavoidable that in tortion people are made`to suffer who ad no direct part in perpetrating the riginal . offense, Professor Westlake- owever, points out that. the justifica- on for this is that "for an. individual o suffer by retortion for the offense of is government implies that for the urposes of war he is. held to be iden- fied with his state." In the case of etortion upon Germany this is doubly ustified because it is one of the Car- inal doctrines of Germany that every erman subject is merged in the Em - re. Germany can not hold this doc- ine for her own benefit and escape aving that doctrine applied to her for e purposes of holding her :acdount- ble. . We shall not atter/list to specify what ts of retorton should „he undertaken check the atrocities of the Hun; but e venture to indicate certain princi- ais that should govern any retorsion ndertaken by America. , First no act of retortion should or ill be sanctioned by America which ould make the agent of it a personal iminal or would violate the absolute ohibitions that Must be observed at 1 costs. What the Germans in Be- am- and France and Poland have ne te women, for example, not out of ssion, but as a measure of fright- lness, demands the sternest retor- on, but by mesures which will leave for the prosecati Ares is wasteful. , Third, wlieneve vo should be broiigh • trators of the - been committed, in that clew; of cf-' the outrages in • of war, for exai entitled to their Ji S . the orews and co g fines have ahno - the part of pira .heir right to be ed as honorable e justifiable meas Y be to make sure S marine or - seized hould ev • The mystery of. possible, retortion home to the perpe- utrages which have ✓ to those who are mice identified with question..
