PIRATES OF SEA ARE SUBMARINES London, Nov. 11, 1-38 p. m. President Presi-dent Wilson's phrase regarding tho "rights of humanity" as something for which the United States was contending, contend-ing, figures prominently in the comment com-ment of the evening newspapers on the Ancona tragedy. "The fact that America's policy will depend upon the point whether American Ameri-can lives have been lost Is a singular comment upon the claim of President Wilson thtat America Is contending for nothing less high and sacred than the rights of humanity." says tho Evening Standard, which continues- "We would frankly ask the American Ameri-can people whether this last addition to tho record of murder on tho high seas does not convince them that there is only one means by which the pirates can be brought to book, namely Increasing vigilance by the allied al-lied fleet Sea power is one and indivisible in-divisible and by demanding that we relax our sea grip on the enemy the American government Is demanding that pirates be not punished."
