A typographical error made The Empire say that | the Battle of Jutland, the greatest naval battle of the World War, was fought May 31, 1918. The Battle of Jutland began May 31, 1916, and continued | until after midnight of that day. While the Ger-| mans retired upon the arrival at the scene of the, British Grand Fleet, the Germans escaped without | as great loss as they had inflicted. The British lost the battle cruisers Queen Mary, Invincible and | Indefatigable, three armored cruisers and eight de- stroyers. The Germans lost the battleship Pommern, the battle cruiser Lutzen, four fast cruisers and five destroyers. The losses of officers and men were about 5,000 British and 3500 Germans. Before the arrival of the British Grand Fleet, the German strength was far greater than the British. The situation was reversed when the British Grand Fleet | arrived after two hours of fighting. Before that the British fast battle squadron of seven battle cruisers and four battleships engaged the German High Seas Fleet of five battle cruisers and twenty- four battleships. The battle began about 4 o'clock in the afternoon and the british fell back before the vastly superior forces of the enemy toward the Grand Fleet which came on at its best speed. The Germans retreated with the arrival of the main British fleet at about 6 o'clock. A few minutes thereafter heavy mist§ stopped the British pursuit | and ended the battle, | Yesterday was the sixteenth anniversary of the engagement AL SMITH'S COURAGE. Former Gov. Smith’s criticism of the President’s | hair-splitting about the sort of work to give to the unemployed and about whether the work shall be paid for by money raised from bonds or from credit extended to the Dawes Commission is well found- ed. If the Government backs the credit it author- ies the reconstruction corporation to give it im- mediately becomes as much a Federal obligation as| a Government bond would be. Further, if work- ingmen were set to constructing highways and other public works it would reduce unemployment not only to the extent of the employment but it would require employment to manufacture and transport the required equipment and necessary materials used. Whatever one might think of Al Smith’s remed- ies, everyone will like his forthrightness, his cour- age, his refusal to be turned from the main poiml by sophistries. Metropolitan newspapers are giving Al Smith great credit for his clarifying speeches on the relations of the Government to the depressing | situation in the country. In fact, he has done more, probably, than any one man to point the way out of chaotic conditions toward recovery. The New York World-Telegram said: There is a jam in Washington because political dickering stands in the way of making necessary Government economies and passing an adequate tax bill. Leaders of both parties sidetrack the program by in- dulging in by-play, both sides with their eyes on the party conventions a month hence. Into this situation steps Alfred E. Smith. With his usual boldness he throws off party considerations and appeals for non-partisan- ship in the emergency. He even goes so far as to say, give the President power to elimi- nate waste by consolidating bureaus — the man who happens to represent the party he opposes and who defeated him for the Presidency. “I believe,” says Mr. Smith, “it is the patriotic duty of every member of Congress | from now until adjournment to discourage and avoid all blocks cabals. insurgencies and mugwump tactics by whatever name they | are called, which bedevil legislation, increase the depression, unsettle business and en- | dan, our credit at home and abroad.” Mr. Smith attacked the cash bonus pro- posal and favored a beer tax, an extension of the war debt moratorium, public works, unemployment relief and a sales tax. While we disagree with one or two of his planks, his economic program is striking be- cause it is so forthright Whether in presenting his own specific remedies or in appealing for a statesman- ship in Washington that rises above parti- sanship, Alfred E. Smith, in his courage and candor is refreshingly different from the crowd of pussyfooting politicians which afflicts both parties and the country. Under the heading, “Unafraid,” the New York , What chiefly strikes one in ex-Governor Smith's address last evening is its appalling candor. Most men mentioned for the Presi- dency at once suffer a kind of mental par- alysis. They cannot make a bold and unequivocal utterance. . Everything they say .has to be qualified, hedged about with 'me! words and designed to be all things all men. Not so "Al" Smith. Read his p-p i will find it bristling with works of permanent and productive value. Of great significance, and quite devoid of parti- san bias, are his recommendations that the Presi- |dent be empowered to effect those changes in the structure which will save so many millions of dollars; to deal with debtor nations: as his judgment may dictate “until a real solution can be reached,” and to have a “free hand” in giving such aid to States and municipalities as will bring the reemployment of many men. Such governmental |suggestions as these have raised the cry of tyranny and arrogation of power more than once during ten current session of Congress when advanced by any- one presumed to be friendly to the Administration Smith has no fear that such powers would be |abused. The Women Arise! (New York World-Telegram.) When 600,000 American women join in a move ment for repeal—look out Prohibition! The Women’s Organization for National Prohibi- tion Reform has 600,000 members. All of these are expected to help turn National Repeal Week, now commencing, into a grand cam- paign for more members and for money to fight for repeal during the Presidential campaign. They will use every form of public appeal, from nation-wide radio hook-ups to street meetings. The voices of two women—Mrs, Charles H. Sabin, Na- tional Chairman and founder of the organization, and Mrs. Archibald B. Roosevelt, National Repeal Week Chairman—were heard in a National broad- cast last night. That 600,000 American women already have been enlisted in this movement is itself a startling fact. It is a starting fact because it is all but impossible to enroll 600,000 persons, men and women, in any movement. And it is startling because it repre- sents so gigantic a reversal of the feminine tide which helped sweep Volsteadism into existence. These women have not waited for complete dis- solution of the national morality to convince them that you can't hold the noses of 120,000,000 people and force down them moral medicine that half of them do not want. They have learned that if you keep a horse away from water he will drink. The women, and particularly the mothers, along with the men of the Nation, have learned a great deal they never knew before about the ruinous psychology of compulsion. They have learned it through their own children—the sons and daughters of the hip-flask age. They have learned it from the underworld reve- lations of the Lindbergh case. They have learned it from Al Capone. They have learned it from reports on crime, on juvenile delinquency, on insanity, on separation and divorce, More ominous than a Carrie Nation rampant with a hatchet is the fervor with which these 600,- 000 women are fighting for Prohibition reform. “Prohibition,” says a former dry Senator, “is not sacred.” But you can get a fairly good anagram out of that. It is “scared.” (Philadelphia In- quirer.) A 15-cent bid was made for the $2000,000 Foshay Tower in Minneapolis. Real estate back there must be looking up.—(Seattle Times.)
