UNITED STATES.
ON THE WARPATH AGAIN. THE IRREPRESSIBLE "TEDDX.-. New York, Feb. 2. Mr. Roosevelt, in an address at the Brooklyn Institute, declared that a year ago the German Government had been notified that it would be held strictly accountable if German submarines sank MJWenger ships and murdered non-com-batants, but, in contemptuous defiance of this warning, Germany had repeatedly been the aggressor. The victims of German submarines numbered 1000. Whether the acts were perpetrated by German, Austrian, or Turkish submarines, it all represented a contemptuous desire on the part of Germany to give the United States a chance of crawlingly recanting with fine words, it was now announced that America was going to accept money and kiss the bloody hands of the murderers, and thus play their game against the nations. America would have behaved more valiantly and righteously by trying to free Belgium. Mr. Roosevelt denounced the suggestion to boycott the export of war materials and to serve despotism against democracy, tvranny against freedom, yrong against right.
