OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
South China Morning Post,
An Important Operation. If this war has proved nothing more it has shown that precedente in warfare count for very little to- day and that there is danger in uttering prophecies. More than once or twice it has been remart- ad that operations on the part of British troops have not followed precedent, and that is true. Thie war is being conducted on new lincs, alike in respect of magni tude and of method. In many ros- peats precedent is not being fol lowed because now precedents are being made. And it is evident that, in a war which sees new military rules thought oak and carried ont, troops like the Ger mans, which have been trained: alorg cast-iron lines and have not been taught to think, are lean like ly to nobieve suco968 for are likely to achieve it at tremendous cost) in any one encounter than the more plisnt-minded soldiers who compore the British army. That is one comforting thought.
Daily Prese.
Trading, with the Enemy,
In this connection the Canton Insurance Office, Ltd., one of the oldest marine offices in the far Eat has taken a strong and praiseworthy lead.
The Hon. Mr. David Lsadale, the Chairman of the Company, announced at the meeting of shareholders Yesterday that the General Managers had issued instructiona to the varions Agents of the Com- pany that "the policies of the. Company are not to be issued for the protection of the 'subjects of a country lost to all sense
of humanity. It is to be hoped that this pratriotic lead will be speedily followed by all British Insurance Com- panies as well as by the British and other British organisatione which afford in any shape or form protection to the trade interests of the enemy under the shelter of a questionable legal dictum of commercial domiclle" in za neutral country. A common policy in this regard is manifestly a patriotic duty, which is especially emphasised at the pre- sent time by the e extraordinary manifestations of hatred towards the British by the Germans and. by the naked savagery
with which they are conducting the
war.
