Today for the first time since the {24th of April, 1016, a little less than ington are admitted to the White House grounds for the traditional Easter festival. This practice was in- States into the great war. and owing to the President's illness later was not resumed. President Harding has thrown open the gates of the grounds | jand once more the children gather on | eggs and rabbits and their luncheons to make merry as in the olden days. These annual assemblages of the lit- {tle folks are wholesome. They are| {productive of great pleasure on the part of the thousands who attend. They bring the people closer to the govern- mental centér. They make them feel to be part of the great organization. Incidentally the youngsters have a good time. Of course, they can roll their egge and have theit picnics in! the Zoo or other parks, where the space is broader. but somehow it is not quite the same as in the White House grounds.

This seems incredible, and vet no other motive is apparent. The diabolical character of the slayings. the pecuiiar co:pling of the victims, 1l suggest dementia. The helper who s confesred sayg that acting under orders he set some of the victims to work digging holes. and when the ex- cavations were deep enough he, lying in wait, struck m down or shot them and buried 'm in the pits that they had dug. Some of these bodies have been exhumed, and the confession jverified. A wholesale crime of this character has never before been un- covered. If peonage was practiced on a scale to warrant such a grave fear of detection as to inspire murder as a cloak, the public authorities were cel tainly slack In their supervision. A grand jury investigaticn is now in progress and from present indications it is likely to uncover one of the most extraordinary crimes in history. Oriental Conflagrations. Another great fire has occurred in Tokio, heretofore on several occasions the scene of conflagrations, similar to those that rage now and then in other oriental cities. These great blazes, highly destructive of property and often causing heavy loss of life, are taue to the inflammable character of the . The houses in in Japan, of wond in large part of | They burn readily and offér no resist |ance to the advance of the flames. When a fire gets out of hand—and it is easy to spread from the first small blaze —there is no possible means of check- ing it. However highly organized the fire-fighting departments, they cannot cope with the furfous element that [licks up everything in its path. In Tokio, it is reported, only a lulllng of the wind and a change In its direction | saved the city from an appalling dev- astation. These fires have taken im- mense toll in the past and have wiped out some of the most important his- torical landmarks. In Constantinople, for example, the blazes that almost periodically sweep the city have de- stroved much of archeological value. The Turkish capital has suffered espe- cially from this cause and now a move- ment is under way to create a fund for the correction of the conditions that imperil certain of the most im- portant historical monuments there. | Better construction is obviously the prime remedy. but the people of these cities are poor and cannot afford bet- ter dwellings. Capital is lacking to provide them. When a fire ravages a wide area, as in Tokio, the recon- struction is almost invariably on the same basis of slightness. nese government has several times sought to cure this condition, but financial obstacles stand in the way, and. furthermore, the people prefer per. { the traditional style of building. About the only safeguard lies in the rigid enforgcement of fire-prevention rules. —_——— It may be assumed that President Harding regrets as much as anybody the fact that the duties of his office prevent him from devoting most of his time to casual conversation ‘with con- { genial callers. e —— Interest in tariff discussion is en- hanced by the fact that there is scarce- ly any subject of human concern upon { which it may not touch Incidentally jfive years ago, the children of Wash.! at one time or another.

Whether or not the mysterious contents of his “unoffi- cial” portfolio are to be as cheerfully received in the United States seems to depend largcly on how commen- tafors feel toward the league of na- Lous, for most of the newspapers take for granted that propusitions concerning the loague are to be di cuseed by the Fronch dipiomat during his “visit of courtesy.” When M.

It continues: “The President probably reailzes, many other | American citizens are beginning to ! do. after holding a contrary opin‘on, that the formation of an entirely new | association of nations is out of the question now. and the quickest way | out of the difficulty is to enter a ‘ meoedified leacue.” The Philadelphia Public Ledeer (in- denendent) is not so sure about this. “Douhtless.” it remarks “the admin iatration doex not know what it wil 40" In this. the Roanoke (Va.) News (democratic) thinks the Ledeer “is Drobably right” and adds: “Perhaps Viviani can help the rapublicans to come to a decision.” While entirely svmpathetic with the Viviani mis. #lon. the Sprinafleld Republican (in dependent) ques:ions “how far Franca €an act as spokesman of the manv other members of the leazue who will have something to sav finally about the changes proposed.” i The New York Times (independent democratic) offérs a possible explana- tion of this problem by sucgesting that other delegations may follow- “Mahomet going to the mountain, the Springfield Union as (republican) puts it—and we may presently see “a kind of adjourned peace conference in Washington.” Looking at the visit and its purpose from a more general standpoint, the Buffalo Times (democratic) suggests that it may serve to “shed light on the deprecatory and. on the whole, enigmatic expressions of the French press,” and the Baltimore Sun (inde- pendent democratic) expresses the hope that it will “clear the rather murky air of Franco-American rela- tions” resulting from the fact that French policy has been “regretably unintelligible” to Americans “not in public life.” Not all the newspapers take an en- tirely optimistic_view of the task ahead of the French envoy. The Pittsburg Leader (progressive repub- ican) speaks with frankness: “The insistence of the French. just now il- lustrated by the visit of the former Premier Viviani to the United States to try to convert President Harding to the French point of view, will be insufficient for the purpose. Another pessimistic note is raised by the Louisville Post (independent), which “would not object in the slight- est” to the ratification of a definite “agreement with France” which it believes is the purpose of the French- man’s visit, but predioting that “there fs not ‘the remotest chance of Con- gress accepting 1 Allocating the Alien. W. W. Husband, the new commis- sioner of immigration, upon taking oath of office, announced that he and the Secretary of Labor had evolved plans whereby the Immigrant, upon his arrival here, will be directed or allocated to the country—to work farm land, and not to remain in our crowded and congested cities. This will solve the immigrant problem, so claimed the commissioner. He states | further that the Immigrant question is a problem of distribution to where the need exists. Should such a plan becoms effective it would undoubtedly react bene- ficially to America. Such nationals as the Lithuanians, Scandinavians | and Germans are good farmers, bet- ter farmers than the Americans. The farm colonies of Lithuanians in Mich- igan and Wisconsin prove this., If land is given to this clags of imimi- grant under fair conditions, then thelr efforts would certainly raise the standard of farming. On the other hand, if the greater number of immigrants should turn to farm- ing our city congestion would be | { minimized and there would not be a surplus of labor. Labor would then be in a better position to defend ftself against exploitation—Vienybe (Lith- uanian, independent), Brooklyn. Americanization. Americanization should be left to natural processes and certainly should not be forced. To think that the first generation can be “Amer- | icanized,” “after the way in which | Americanization is understood | chauvinists, is a pipe-dream. It is| ossible, however, for one to be a| oreigner, not to know the language of this country, to have other cu toms than those of the so-called rea American, and yet to have a better idea of, and a greater desire for, freedom and nobleness than the so- called natives—who, of course, a only the somewhat earlier immigrants from England, Holland and Ireland. These, in & great many respeci themselves stand a little American- ization, and very often can find much to learn from the more recent immi- grants.
