The Boy Scout or- ganization is today the most active One of the earliest questions to be taken up by the new board of Com- missioners, it is stated, will be that Beginning April 11 Senators have scattered for home. They were together long enough for the new men to get their bearings, and for the old men to take the meas- ures of the new. The ten days were ‘well employed. Representatives had scattered be- fore. Those of the new men Who )md’ come to witness the inauguration de parted as soon as that was over. But they staved long enough to take a Jook around, and when they return next month will not fel as strangers. The President and his official ad- visers remain on the job. There is no breathing spell for them And they desire none. Having been introduced to their duties, they are buckling to the work. There is plenty of it. The government's business necessarily is in much disorder. The war threw evervthing out of plumb; and since Armistice day there has been until now a divided responsibility. But now the republicans are in full charge, and must “go to it." Beginning, then, April 11, this town will be the scene of much activity. The Pre:ident will be busy. Congress will be exceedingly bu The We- partments will be rushed with work. For bow long? It would be useless to fix a time. Guessing would be at gueseer's risk. Where there is so much to be done, and so much of it agency to correct this tendency, and it deserves the fullest measure of pub- lic support and the highest degree of importance. co-operation by the citizen, for it is one of the practical safeguards of America. | Col. Kutz to Remain. It is reassuring to learn that no change will im v be made in the office Commissioner of Eng of the Di: »t. Col. Kutz. it is stated, will probably be retained in this pres- ent assignment for several months at least in order that the new board of Commissioners will not be wholly al- tered in personnel. Furthermore, Col. Kutz has a firm grasp of the District situation and is well versed in all the business details pertaining to the capi- tal municipality. He links the present board back to several of its predeces- sors. If his services are not impera- tively needed in the Engineer Corps of the Army it will be well if he were to be continued here without reference to any particular term or “tour of | duty.” An organization like the District { government with three executives in- stead of one can be made continuous, to the advantage of the local welfare, by overlapping of “administrations.” of better street lighting for the capi- tal.

Let time settle the time. Editorial Digest Is Russia’s Red Star Waning? “Everything that comes out of Rus- sia,” says the Topeka Capital (republi- can), “is branded with a question mark,” and this insignia, it might be added, seems to be attached to most or' the newspaper comment on the counler1 revolution. While the virtually univer- sal ill-wishes for Lenin and Trotskx | father a certain amount of hopeful | thought, few writers are willing to go | further than to say, with the Buffalo Commercial (democratic), “soon or late, bolshevism will fall,”” and these few arc careful to avoid names and dates. That the present revoit has the virtue of being a home-grown product and not imported from the foreign or war offic: of the allies, the New York World (dem- ocratic) is certain. The Russians arc fighting, it assures its readers, “to re dress the wrongs they themselves have endured at the hands of the bolshevik minority, and to overturn the Moscow dictatorship.” It was the “hapds-off” policy, at last | accepted by the powers as the best, the | Florida Times Union (democratic) be- | lieves, that has permitted things to| | | i | | i fester in Russia, and “now the cure is coming from within.” That this cure; may be effective it must be uninterrupt- ed,” the New York Mail (independent) urges, and to this end it would be “the wisest policy for western nations now | to secure Russia from external attack and to seek to strengthen the insurgent efforts of a_disorganized minority,” for | this would “soon eud the paradox of a | nationalistic army keepi8g a communis- tic government In power.” Tt is, in-! deed, “not oniy had morals,” says the Post-Standard _(republican) 10 diplomucy for outsiders fo in- and best wishes, and very little eise” or, Job.’ Left alone, the fate of the communis- tic leaders dépends entirely on this “na- tionalistic” army, a number of writers assert, but, as the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette (democratic) remarks, “it is red army | is the largest in Kurope, the best equipped and well officered”’: hence. if it “Temains loya] the present movement will hardly scceed.” As long as_the military forces hold, the Baltimore News (independent) agrees, “Lenin and Trot- (= sky have nothing to fear.” However, the Spokane Spokesman Review (inde- pendent republican) takes a comforting thought from the fact that “mutiny in the army and navy” was the factor that “‘destroyed the old czarist regime and the Kerensky government,” and it con- = fidently pictures the soviets “drifting | = upon the rocks® by way of the same |~ channel. Lack of a good leader is a serious drawback to the counter revolutionary movement, in the opinion of the Sioux City Journal (independent). Kerensky's first failure, it thinks, was due to th fact that “he used the gloved hand. The “man who rescues Russia from its direful position,” it concludes, “must and will be on the ground.” The Oklahoma City Oklahoman (dem- ocratic) finds it “especially interesting” to_hear that Kerensky i5 the moving spirit of the revolt, but laments that| the majority of Russians, while they are | against the red leaders, are not “organ- ized and equipped and many of them | do not appear to be inclined to fight for their rights” The Memphis Com- mercial Appeal (democratic) says “Kerensky is by no means the man to lead this new revolution, because he has been tried and found wanting.

By a vote of 81 to 62, the New York state assembly yesterday passed three bills which, in the language of their propenents, “‘put the state behind the Volstead act.” These measures are designed to enroll on the side of pro- hibition enforcement the full police power of the state of New York. If the people of the state do not wish to enforce the national act they may lessen the activities of the police and the state constabulary. If they wish to carry through in prohibition en- forcement they can under this bill just passed stop the smuggling of voted solidly as a party against the bills, and thirty-one republicans joined them, but the republican party ma- Jority in the assembly is s0 large that a margin of nineteen remained.

Yesterday Presi- dent Harding was formally notified of his election to that office and accepted. The Boy Scouts have become such a famfliar figure in practically all Amer- iean cities that the people probably do not fully appreciate just what they stzd for and how potential this or- gantmtion is for good citizenship.

It is a very exceptional investiga- tion that develops enoigh interest to compensate for the time it consumes. Legal Death by Gas. Possibly as a result of the expe- riences in war, the state of Nevada has decided to change the manner of executing persons condemned to death by law. A bill has passed the legis- lature and been submitted to the gov- ernor providing for the use of lethal gas, to be administered in & special room to be constructed at the state penitentiary. This method, it is claim- ed, is even more merciful than elec- trocution, which has been adopted by many states in substitution for hang- !ing. Even the electric chalr, it is felt, 'lnmcu an agony upon the condemned and presents a most revoiting sight. A legal death by gas will probably be speedy, painless and certain. If the state s to continue to take life as a punishment it should surely take'it in the most merciful manner. Time was when an execution for crime was de- liberately made shocking as a deter- rent.

To the Wheeling Intelligencer (republican) it is a po- litical matter. “The people have come to the realization that they have changed one despotism for another,” and so they struck this “blow for freedom” as a “natural result.” The Brooklyn Eagle (independent democratic) sees Lenin as con- servative among the communists” and as a result “opposed by extremists all around him.” But he is a compro: miser, too, and as this uprising Is a revolt of the iIndustrial orkers, “Lenin may save himself by®compro- mising with them as he compromised with the peasants,”” since “there seems to-be as much human nature.in Rus- sia as in other countries, if not more. Films Should Be Cleaner. The National Association of the Moving Picture Industry threatens with expulsion from the association those who violate in letter or spirit the stand taken by the association, and even go to the length of declar- ing that the association will assist in the criminal prosecution of the offenders. This from the representa- tives of most of the motibn picture producers of the United States! The resolutions went on further—they specifically banned films “that are ‘obscene, salacious, indecent and im- moral,’ those which ‘emphasize and exaggerate sex appeal’ those ‘based on commercialized viee; or which make drunkenness. gambling or the use of narcotics attractive.” The 1id was also clamped on “scenes which unnecessarily pro- long expressions or demonstrations of passionate love” or “particularly suggestive bedroom and bathroom scenes and scemes of inciting danc- ing." those exhibiting nakedness or scanty attire, or those which in- struct the feeble-minded in ‘methods of committing crime.’ " Protest also was voiced against stories or scenes ridiculing public officials, policemen, sailors, soldiers, ministers, priests or rabbis. In the old days of vinous, spiri tuous, malt and intoxicating bev. erages it was common knowledge that for all the whole-hearted, sin- cere and extreme resolvers the man Who had been indiscreet the night before took the palm.
