So much is in flux and con- fusion, and the necessity for clarifi- cation and stabilization so great, the more light that can be shed on any and every question in controversy the better. The “Separate Peace” Again. Interest in the action of the,Senate on Saturday, when the Knox.resolu- tion was passed, centers in the:revival {by Senator Lodge of talk concerning a separate peace with Germany. The senator’s remarks on the subject were not so lucid or definite as to warrant assurance on the part of the public that he proposes to fight for such a peace. Yet, taken in conjunction with the balance of his discourse, a basis for apprehension lest such be his pur- pose is certainly provided, and once again the possibility of a course of action which would bring dishonor to the United States distresses the na- tion. “If we chouse to make peace with Germany by a treaty, which will prob- ably follow this resolution,” said Mr. Lodge, “surely we are not betraying them.” By “them’ he referred to the powers with whom we were associated chusetts, forthwith rose to remark that THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, TUESDAY,‘ MAY 3. 1921 Wednes:'i ing in the House before taking service in the Senate. Last year Washington gave the re- publican national ticket twenty thou- sand plurality, and recommissioned Senator Jones. The result showed a vigorous coudition of republicanism in the state, and nothing has occurred sincetto indicate any- change in senti- ment. Nevertheless, Mr. Poindexter is taking nothing for granted, but pre- paring.for next year’ contest in good earnest. This example will.probably be copled. Members of the present Congress, whether senatars or representatives, who.aspire to re-election will not be safe in basing their calculations for the future on last year's figures. Last year’'stsituation was unusual. It may not—it is not likely—to occur again. Nextjyear's situation may show some sharps changes, partly as the result of time.,and partly as the result of the record of this Congress, which has now (begun to takeé shape. Comtrol of the next Congress is a big stake, and is likely to be played for with all the skill and alertness the players possess. Millions in Seized Liquors. Not thesleast of the problems faced by the Neew York police force in car- rying out the provisions of the pro- hibition .act is that of storing the liquor and wines seized in raids. Since the state law was passed requiring the police to act as enforcement agents beverages valued at about $£7,000,000 have been taken. There being no reg- ularly equipped storage warehouse for wet .goaods, an old pelice station on the East.Side, which was abandoned about two months ago as unsuitable, was utilized. Day by day the wet goods were hauled there and packed away. The weight increased until it was dis- days forty of them have been kept Editorial Digest | Three Per Cent Immigration. Prohibition of anything stronger than 3 per cent Immigration—3 per cent of the number of each race resl- | dent at the time of the 1910 census— meets with the approval of a large number of newspapers, though some of those who support the Dillingham bill regard it as only a stop-gap with- out accepting its principle. There are & number of writers who object to Umiting the number of our new citi- Zens on the basis of race, and others consider the whole idea mischievous and useless as a solution for the prob- lem that must be met by organized assimilation rather than numerical restriction ‘Individual fitness” is “the only test that harmonizes with the American tradition,” says the New York Globe (Independent), and is a criterion which must stand if our old conceptions of democracy are to be maintained.” In- troduction of “the race question” a all. the San Francisco Chronicle (in- dependent) considers “unnecessary and unfortunate,” for *“no race is fre from undesirables, even the American race.” As to orientals, however. the €oast paper explains that there “it is DOl a question of races, but of in- dividuals.” The ) > £ap measure. riction by arith- lection.” ulletin (independ- out that the an popula “the last decade’ has increased centage of present repre tinent to inquire <hip is expected Mexican than from an alien from - Tush to get under the wire before the limit is reached will produce a “hurried infux,” the quality of which will be far inore doubiful than its e S ) be Star (independent) considers that | t Il has an “unfortunate tendency toward indictin tions as ui The FI in this * warning that: “It will a us little to Of Fine-Textured Gingham in Plaids and Checks Delightfully “summery” and dif- ferent—dresses that unite good looks with good service.
