Punish the Guilty Denounce German War Planners
The Salt Lake Tribune argues that Dr Theobald von Bethmann Hollweg cannot shoulder Germany’s crimes and that Kaiser Wilhelm II should face blame alongside other chief culprits. It urges Allies to list those responsible for causing the war and insists punishment be personal, not only on the followers. The piece doubts Dutch interference with justice and warns against leniency for rulers and planners.

Great sympathy strike ends amid mixed results
The Winai Peg sympathy strike concludes after government commission terms, viewed as largely a failure. Chicago and New York faced major labor upheavals with street workers, city employees, and others staging pay demand protests, while New York’s vegetable and fruit supply was threatened by feminator strikes. A new labor union of Atlantic West officers seeks higher pay, planning to join the American Federation of Labor and expand to Pacific, European, and Asiatic fleets, despite navy rules delaying such organizing.
