Attorney General Daugherty. speak- ing last night in Columbus, Ohio, serv ed what may be taken aefinite notice as to is attitude rd the so-called “political prison nd to- ward disloyalists in £ al. He divide: this nall portion of our citizenship tow: into two classes. First. those who! sincerely adhere to semi-religious doc- | trines which, they claim. preclude them from obedience to certain of the Jaws of the United State Second, those who are willfully disloyal for no reason other than a fixed desire to subvert the existing foundations of the nation's form of government. Hav. ing made this distinction. Mr. Daugh- erty proceeds to his definite policy, which covers both classes. “They must be brought to a sound understanding.” he say suffer such consequences as a sound and just government may in lawful constitutional manner mete out to them. We in America must adhere to the policy that a cit- izen must either love his country or leave it.” That policy to which a vast preponderance of American will whole-heartedi sub: The popular clamor for an “Americaniza- tion” program. at its height the year which immediately followed the armistice, has, with certain other of the practical ideals toward which ‘we were then pressing so eagerly. par- tially subsided. There remains. how- ever, fixed in the hearts of millions of Americans, the desire that their government take a firm stand on the subject of Americanization. that a pro- gram purposed to bring every citizen enjoving the privileges and of this country to a full realization of the binding character of the obliga- tions and responsibilities simultane- ously undertaken be into effect. The greater part of such disloyalty as exists in America results from a misconception_on the part of a small 1mmorsy <f citizens as to the funda- mental meaning of democracy. To them the term implies extreme indi- vidual liberty. the right of each cit- or is a vitizens izen to disagree with the policy of the | vails in some quarters that the United | ent considering. state and. disagreeing. to refuse to comply with laws enacted to put that policy into effect. That belief is false. Democracy, as the term is used in the greatest democratic nation of the ‘world, means government according to the majority will of the people, under an established Constitution. If the in- dividual i= unwilling to conform to such government in America he must either go elsewhere in search of a land which will permit the exercise of un- restrained individualism, or be pre- pared to suffer the consequences when his selfish idiosyncrasies lead him into violation of laws established by the majority will. ‘The Attorney General is on the right track. Pending the adoption of some definite Americanization program by the government, the only possible ex- cuse for releasing such “political pris- oners” as are today under sentence would be an honest and publicly avowed change of heart on their part. —_—t Cuba. Gen. Gomez, defeated candidate for the presidency of Cuba, now in this country, is quoted in a dispatch from Key West, Fla., as declaring that he will not contest the recent election. He fears the effect on the independence of the island of another American in- tervention. Thix shows a change of purpose on the part of Gen. Gomez. It was re- ported when he arrived in this coun- try that his purpose was to ask in- tervention, on the allegation that ll’l!i result at the polls had been obtained by fraud. This government is differ- ently advised, and Dr. Zavas, the suc- cessful candidate, will be seated. This solytion of the matter is wise and welcome. The United States has no desire to intervene in Cuba again. We want to see the island maintain her independence, first, for her own sake, and, second, for our sake. We have problems enough in hand as mat- ters stand. Intervention to prevent revolution would mean a protracted stay, and it might mean a permanent stay. Going in would be much easier than getting out. Not that we should want to stay, or that the Cubans, cool- ed off. would object to our leaving. But we should have the fear of fur- ther trouble in case of our departure. We are responsible for order in Cuba, but must have the assistance of the Cubans themselves. They look o us for guidance in many things, and we may recommend to them our prompt acceptance of election results, and the smooth change of control from one party to another. ——— It is foreseen that the big strike will be discussed in British politics long after it has ceased to be an eeonomic peril. ——— The South and Protection. ‘This is a news announcement: “The BSouthern Tariff Association announced yesterday it had arranged o send a delegation April 20 to con- fer with President Harding and later present to the House ways and means committee an outline of the south’s tariff necds. Protection for cotton- seed producers will be asked for the first time, it was stated., and also a otective duty on hides.

Soviet | Rus the Secretary declares, is a “gigantic economic vacuum,” and he says furthermore that “no evidence | {exists that the unfortunate situation | is likely to be alleviated as long as the present political and economic sys- tem continues.” The plain meaning of this is that Russia needs practically everything and has nothing to offer in return. Anybody who trades with Russia does %o at the imminent risk—with almost | the certainty—of losing everything. Not long ago the Russian government 1 immense orders for goods here. was absolutely no guarantee of payment. It has been claimed that the United | States had put a blockade against| trade with Russia. Secretary Hughesi points out that there is no blockade, {all restrictions on direct trade with Russia having been removed last July. There is no barrier whatever and any- body who wants to take a gambling ! chance in the matter of payment can | ship anything there. The meaning of all this is that Rus- ia is her own economic enemy. She | has destroyed her own credit and her jown resources, and until the system | !of government over there is changed | there will be no remedy. The problem | is how to fill the great vacuum, how | | to bring about order in the chaos that inow prevails throughout that vast| {arca formerly known as the Russian | empire. ! Secretary Hughes’ note will do much jto correct a false impression that pre- | Secre uel statement | Russi: ! States is active in hostility to the | soviet government. It is simply quies- cent. It opens the doors to trade. It declines to establish official relations, it is true, but for this there is the best of reason.

He was touched with the spirit| of true democracy, wrought for demo-| cratic ends, and produced democratlcl ! Thix occasion comes opportunely. | The President is approaching the time { for changing American representatives | to Central and South American coun-{ tries. He wants a high order of men | for those billets. He wants our rela- tions of every kind with those coun- tries strengthened, and whatever mis- { conceptions may exist there as to our purposes toward them dispelled. Such misconceptions exist, and have been muitiplied and emphasized by Your rivals seeking to “cut us out"—| rivals seeking trade, and who resent our leadership in affairs on this side This leadership has never been un- | warrantably or offensively asserted. | | 1t rests upon a solid foundation. Ours iis concededly the greatest republic in the world, and the western hemisphere is dedicated to the republican form of government. So that both by what he shall say 1in New York tomorrow and by the i character of the men he will s00n com- mission for diplomatic service in Latin America, the President will give evi- dence of the sentiment that exists in this country for our southern neigh- bors. —————t——— The “triple alliance” in labor circles is not the first European association with a high-sounding title to deserve classification as an unstable com- pound. —_—— The numerous crop fallures are like- ly to fix an impression in the mind of the farmer that the only way to be sure of a steady income from land is to have an oil well in the place. ——— A little argument concerning his confirmation doubtless seemed all in the day's work to an old contender like Col.

Passing of the danger of a general strike, which was averted at the last moment by refusal of the transport and railroad workers to unite ‘with the miners, leaves Great Britain st discommoded and in some respects greatly injured by the mine strike.

The agents | of bolshevism who have been proselyt- ing among the English workingmen will probably continue their endeavors to spread discontent among the Brit- ish workingmen. The failure of the sympathetic ~strike plan has left a| rancorous feeling in the ranks of or-; manized labor. Charges of “treason” have been brought against some of | the leaders. The familiar ery that the | unions have been “sold out to the gov- ernment” has been raised. Reprisals are likely to occur. For the present, | however, this is not the government's | affair and it can afford to concentrate | upon the. economic prospect of the case andtry to restore the coal in- dustry to normal. Later the effort to test the issue of | communism in England may be re-| newed.
