The American Beginning. s One hundred and forty-five years ago % today a group of American colonists i assembled at Philadelphia signed a " paper that was to becomé one of the w momentous documents in the history 3" of the world. It was their “declara- 7 ‘tion of independence.” It was the be- “'ginning of a movement for freedom **from British rule. following a series of efforts to reform conditions that had become intolerable. In their ex- . 'pression of principles, however. they declared for more than American in- '+ dependence. They wrote a charter for i"'all peoples striving to be free, which inspired others and set a goal for na- tlonalistic aspirations throughout t world. . In celebrating Independence day. the © anniversary of the great act of declara- - tion, the American people have not always recalled in full the significance + of the occasion. Sometimes they have remembered only the exaltation of the .+ founders of the republic in their en- ’ ‘thusiasm of proclamation. Sometimes * again they have remembered the sac- rifices that were required to make that declaration an accomplished fact. ' Sometimes they have remembered the * reactions that from time to time bave followed from the high principles that “were thus eloquently expressed. Now in the light of the history of nearly a aseentury and a half, and especially in the light of the events of the last five vears, they should bear in mind the whole story of nation making, with its setbacks and failures and triumphs. It is the fashion among some today 7 _to belittle the Declaration of Independ- ence as 1 meaningless document, as a mere gesture which those who framed and signed it did not intend to be fol- lowed with deeds. Nothing is more false. Nor is it true that in the essen- _ tials the evolution of the United States " has departed from the ideal that was * in that paper given expression. Those who signed the declaration knew per- he fectly well that they could not create | a nation by a mere stroke of the pen and were aware of the tremendous dif- ficulties ahead, not merely those of iiberation, but those of construction . and organization. They knew that they s were but taking the first step and that *in the long Journey there would be de- | partures from the straight path. Those who signed the declaration had, of course, no preconception of the great state which they were in that aet creating. Their vision did not carry them bevond the Allegheniés. They had no concept then of the vast » empire stretching to the Pacific. over ! ‘which the same flag should fly in the ‘course of far less than a century. They | ‘had no thought of the more than 100,- | 000,000 of people bound together in a Furthermore, there is one feature of the postal savings system which Mr. Hays characterizes as almost a fraud. This 1s the failure to pay interest on deposits held under a year, by virtue of which the government, he says, has profiteered at the expense of the de- positors to the same in the last year alone in the sum of $1,720,000. 8o the Postmaster General proposes to recommend to Congress immediate changes in the postal savings law, to increase the rate of interest, to pay interest on deposits held less than a year, to remove the age restriction, to establish postal banks in 50,600 offices instead of 6,300 as at present, to com- pensate fourth-class postmasters on the basis of the deposits they handle. to redeposit the funds in local banks with more liberal qualification rules for such depositaries, and to enlarge the board of directors of the postal savings bank. These changes, he believes, will make the postal savings system more attrac- tive to the people’s money, more. efficient, and more universally used. <| If by these changes $1,000,000,000 can be brought out of hiding and put 1into circulation a great benefit will be bestowed upon American business, which at present is in urgent need of working capital. Hoarded money is a swaste. If Mr. Hays can bring out that billion he will be hailed as a benefactor. Marshal Foch’s Tribute. Marshal Foch's tribute to the people and Army of the United States sent as an Independence day message Is a splendid expression of gratitude for the services rendered in the great war. It clearly sets forth the urgent need of the allies at the time this country entered the struggle. It praises the readiness and the energy of the people and the government in expanding sud- denly from a peace basis to an effective war organization that eventuglly (cuuscd the defeat of Germany. No one knows better than Marshal Foch the full measure of the American contribution to victory. He had not, it is true. been named generalissimo of the allied troops until about a year jafter the United States decclared war. | But he had been a factor in the de- | fense of France from the beginning. It was his blow at the first battle of the Marne that turned the tide there {and stopped the triumphant German |advance, calculated to overwhelm the allies in a few weeks. He knew, as did few others. the extreme peril of the situation, when, in the spring of 1918, Germany began what her leaders hoped and believed would be the su- preme and successful smash against the long held stubborn defense. He knew the full value of American aid, {not merely in moral effect, but in physical strength. ! That aid was rendered. in fuller measure than the French and British and Belgians believed possible. The cry came for infantry and machine gun units. They flowed over the sea, thanks to the concentration of British shipping, in astounding numbers. They reached the front in surprisingly short time and in a condition that chal- lenged the admiration of the most sta- soned soldiers. They went into action with a spirit that proved an inspiration to the weary, battle-worn divisions of the allied armies. Marshal Foch's praise comes appro- priately at a time when the United States formally, by legislative action, declares the restoration of peace with Germany. This declaration is but a form, in the main, but it marks the end of a military episode. The French commander's tribute gives a proper appraisal to the services rendered in the few months marked by active oper- ations. Nearly four years and a quarter elapsed between the declaration of war continental unit of single gm-ernmem.ju"d its definite and specific cancella- They had no dream of the wealth of | tion.

They could not conceive Ameri- . can participation in the mightiest of | wars of history in a foreign land. It was well that they did not foresee these things or they might have shrunk from the responsibility they assumed July 4, 1776. They then in- voked a power beyond their full com- prehension. It is for us today to ac- cept the evolution of the 145 years as a gift. to make the best of our chance at self government, to solve in the + wisest way the problems that arise, + problems that are so simple in them- “ selves compared with that which the signers so bravely attacked in 1776 that the doubters and the shirkers and the pessimists and the schemers of to- day should be ashamed of their fears. —————— Mutual irresponsibility continues to be offered as an excuse for all kinds _of crime. Drawing the distinction be- ! tween mental and moral irresponsibil- , ity is one of the most delicate tasks '.'Ith which psychology has to deal. —————— Authorities are not able to exert much more control over prize fights than they are over bathing costumes. ‘The new Chief Justice calls attention ‘to the hongred motto, “keeping ever- -lastingly at it brings success.” The Hosrded Billion. Postmaster General Hays says that pthe postal savings system fails toabsorb the people’s surplus cash by at least a billion dollars, and he proposes changes in the law which will make it more <attractive and will draw that sum out 10t the “stockings” in which it is now Ahoarded and so put it to work. Pri- marily this failure of the postal sav- “ings system is due to the low rate of Interest which it offers. At 2 per cent <4t cannot hope to gain deposits while “®avings banks offer 3 and in some cases even more. . The Postmaster General does not ""want to make the postal savings sys- tem & competitor of the private banks. Obviously the latter cannot now get -the hoarded billion in consequence of offering 3 per cent. The owners of “that money are afraid of banks. They are chiefly aliens, not acqyainted with American financial - institutions and = given to hoarding rather thar deposit- “Ang thelr surplus. They have con: ;afidence in the government, but the low M ot taterest does not-attract them. - But that half year sufficed. It was the half year of the supreme crisis, when every ounce of power told, when every man was & unit, when every gun was of the utmost value. It is the pride of this country that it was ready for that service, which Marshal Foch now so eloquently appraises. —_——— An elimination of waste may be accomplished by more precaution in employing messengers to carry secur- ities from one financial office to an- other. ————— As a voluminous writer for the daily press, Willlam Howard Taft is entitled to refer to his present deserved honor as another compliment to the Amer- |ican newspaper man. ———— The report that Marshal Foch escaped injury in an automobile acci- dent was in the nature of more dis- agreeable news for the Hohenzollerns. ———t Old-time statesmanship in Mexico was too often distingyished by the policy of deliberately seeking a mis- understanding with the U. 8. A. The Fourth is no less glorious when unembellished with pyrotechnics. —— Politics and Legislation. In his Fourth of July address Chair- man White of the democratic national committee says: “I take this of constructl gllclnl the interests of the country above parti- san interest, again proving its moral and political integrity, its true pa- triotism and its devotion to the ests of the nation and its people. Mr. White's compliment is so high, the republicans may ask for particu- lars. They may not have noticed the “helpfulness” and “forbearance” Mr. ‘White derives so much satisfaction from. But, whatever the past four months have shown, the time is now at hand ‘when democrats, in Congress and out, will have opportunity to put politics side, or, §t any rate, subordinate it somewhat, for the satisfactery solving of problems that press for solution on lines not altogether political. Take taxzation. The republicans will soon present their plan for re- visjon. The inftiative is theirs. Strict- 1y speaking, there i» no politics in the THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. MONDAY, JULY 4, 1921 subject. Will politics be injected? If 80, the legislation will lack for the ef- fect it ought to carry. Take transportation. The main point in that is to keep the railroad prop- erties under private ownership and restore satisfactory and profitable serv- fce under government regulation. There is no politics in the proposition. The republicans have declared against government ownership and operation, while the democrats have never de- clared for it. A good deal of constructive legisla- tion s necessary to meet a situation for which both parties are responsible. Can it be met successfully unless there is co-operation for the purpose? ————— Four Questions. Has Congress been loafing on the job? Has it shown incertitude in mat- ters brought before it? Does the rect ord forecast a republican beating at the polls next year? Is it possible to mend the pace? Question number one. Congress has been in session nearly three months, and busy every day of the time. It has passed several measures of great moment, and laid foundations for others. Time was essential in the mat- ter of the tariff, taxation and railroad transportation. made on all three propositions. Question number two. Differences of opinion as to what should be done have arisen. But they inhere in every large subject presented to a large assembly for action. They do not necessarily spell incertitude or disaster. Out of them may issue wise solutions of dif- ficult problems. Question number three. Forecasts as to next year are worthless now. The result at the polls in November of next year depends on the workableness of legislation as yet in the shaping. If this Congress finds the right way and takes it, the next Congress is reason- ably certain to show a republican majority. Question number four. If the pace needs mending and the direction changed. the work devolves on the vet- erans. As always, experience counts. The impatience now being expressed is by men serving their first term on Capitol Hill, and therefore unfamillar with the going. If the reins were put into their hands, an upset might re- sult. \ A man won the bread-baking cham- pionship at a country fair in Tinois. Women have done successfully the work in which men customarily per- formed. It is but fair for the man to kitchen range. \ It should be a pleasure to work with a man like Mr. Dawes. He can be depended upon to define his ideas and purposes explicitly and with the de- gree of emphasis the occasion may re- quire. \ So long as neither is politically busy at the moment, D’Annunzio might per- suade Paderewski to set some of his poetry to music. \ The hard-working member of Con- gress is not expected to keep one eye either on the clock or the thermometer. \ 1t will be of popular interest to ob- serve whether any nation can offer a reason for not limiting armaments. \ The dogs of war need muzzling. ————t——— SHOOTING STARS. BY PHILANDBR JOHNSON. Yt Independence Day. It's a custom to tell of the days of the past In terms that a glamour will lend. We often regret that old times could not last As the modern improvements extend. We think of the days when the fire- works would blaze And dazzle the marveling eye— And we wish we could bring back the ‘wonderful ways Of the old-fishioned Fourth of July. But the bright pyrotechnics meant nothing at all Compared to the memories great That the splendid display was designed to recall Of the heroes that dared any fate. The wise men who taught and the brave men who fought In spirit still seem to stand by, And, though silence may reign, we preserve in our thought The old-fashioned Fourth of July. Humility. “You never assume any airs of great- ness despite the frequency with which you have been returned to ‘Washing- ton.” “No,” replied Senator Sorghum. “I've got to be extremely deferential to everybody. When the good people out home elect & man to office they have a way of making him feel his inferiority.” Limitations. “Would you like to see a prize fight?” “No,” replied Miss Cayenne. “I have no moral objection to puglilism, but I couldn’t permit myself such expensive tastes.” ‘Winged Economy.

Michigan because he al- lowed a “morale committee,” composed partly of enlisted men. to discuss mat- ters of discipline on his ship, there are a good many writers who decry the use of the word “sovietism” in connec- tion with the affair, and present a case for the accused captain and the methods which grew out of the We Look for the Season’s Busiest Day Tomorrow The summer needs—for sonal and home comfort—were told Dantels policy of morale-building in the Navy.
