The apportionment of offices which distributes the classified service offices like bandit spoils among the states in proportion to their population strength, is unsound in principle and | law, vicious in practice. It is hurtful to the nation and to the capital in war and in peace. It is helpful to nobody, It demonstrated its vicious ineffi- clency in the war-time and had to be suspended. 1y hurtful in the peace era of recon- struction and ought to be repealed It violates the merit system, deprives the youth of Washington of local meang of self-support and obstructs the development of the Americans of the District from the status of tran- sient occupants of a political camp into a home-owning, homogeneous com- munity trong in civic loyalty and community pride. The national interest demands re- peal of this bad law. Under a true merit system the government should be able to use in order to do the na- tion's work the best fitted of American applicants irrespective of the state or territory or section from which they As an integral part of the sys- ney to which the ration is sincerely com- mitted this hurtful law quickly repealed. This contention is elahorated in ed itorial correspondence printed else- where in toda . Senator Calder's Choice. Senator Calder prefers the national to the local field for his political ac- tivities. " He is resisting an effort to draft him for the coming mayoralty campaign in Greater New York. - Calder is a veteran in the na- b » in the House as- sisted in his promotion to the Senate, and his term in the Scnate, which will expire in March, 1923, has been marked by useful work there. Hence his desire to succeed himself as senator. Moreover, national issues are very interesting now. and men who have had a share in shaping them naturally wish to see them through. Another point is that a transfer— the transfer proposed—to the local field would be attended with consider- able risk to Mr. Calder's future in politics. He would lead a fusion mave- ment; and fusion movements in local affairs often show a lack of staying power. A victory over a regular or- ganization is achieved, and then the fusionists either lose interest, or fall out among themselves by a display of too great interest. In either event the man who has led the movement}the coming confenence offers the op- suffers in his personal fortunes, and! drops out—sometimes permanently— of all political calculations. Mr. Calder is popular at home, and doubtless would make a strong mayor- alty candidate. But he is popular also in Congress, and naturally has opinion as to where his training and experience will best capitalize for his| Prices necessarily come down w purchasing power diminishes.

Fatal collisions between automohiles and electric cars at railroad grade crossings are now replacing deadly encounters with steam trains in the records of this country’s needless sac- rifices of life. Yesterday two such “gecidents” occurred, one near Toledo, Ohio, in which thrée people were kill- ed and four badly hurt, and the other near Roebling, N. Jo in which three were killed and one was mortally in- Jured. In the excitement following the latter disaster a small boy was run over and fatally hurt by an auto-| mobile rushing to the scene. The trolley car grade crossing is as dangerous as the steam railroad cross- ing, save that the electric car can be brought to a halt to avoid collision more quickly than a steam train. But in both tases the appearance of the motor car on the crossing is so swift and sudden that there is practically no chance for the motorman or the engineer to avoid hitting it. ‘While it is true that grade crossings should eventually be eliminated, and while maintained should be strictly guarded and protected by the trans- portation companies, much of the blame for these collisions rests upon the drivers of cars. They rush their machines through the country with little regard for speed rules and warn- §ng signals. They depend upon their speed to get over crossings. Rarely do they bring their cars to a halt be- fore crossing tracks in order to make pure that the way is clear. In the case of an electric car in the country the average motorist regards it as he does the city street car, or mnother motor. He figures ‘that he can make the crossing ahead and usually he “steps on the gas” and pushes his machine to its limit in It is proving itself equal-} should be field, and has been successful | an jery i %ndd |asters often occur. But whatever the degree of re- sponsibility resting on the motorist, there should be no remission of care on the part of the steam and electric! Irallr(\ad companies or the public serv- ice officials in marking dangerous crossings—going on the theory that all crossings are dangerous. Warning signs should be placed at a proper distance from the crossing itself. Sig- nal bells should be established at all crossings to be rung in advance of the car or train. There are several dangerous cross- ings around Washington. Over those in the District of Columbia the Com- ioners have jurisdiction and can take steps for their protection. But in the two adjacent states Washington must look to the local authorities. These two accidents comting together, with a total loss of six lives, should surely stimulate the Virginia and Maryland officials to a surv of all ngs in those states to insure safe- guards which will put the responsibil- ity squarely up to the road users. | —_————————— i The Coming Conference. | | When President Harding made his! ! proposal of an international conference and world peace the American public {hailed what was indubitably a master | stroke of statesmanship with much the {same type of enthusiasm with which it is wont to greet a home run by Babe { Ruth in the first inning. There were { cheers all around and a tendency tol |count the game as “stowed away on li¢e.” And then, as is likewise its wont, Ithat same American public settled {back into its seats and, having done {s0. began to wonder if, after all, the| ! proposition before it was not mor | complex than a splendid start. Their | favorite had “‘come through,” the fig- ares ju: set up on the scoreboard were certainly heartening, but then the game had to be played out. Un- reasoning assurance gave way to sober appreciation of difficulties ahead. And while their threats still ached from the vocal approbation with which they had iapplauded the opening score they be- | gan sagely to consider the innings 1 still to be played. | | Itis well that this should be so. It is |well that as civilization makes its latest . effort toward the goal upon which its life may depend it should do so not in a spirit of unqualified assur- ance or unreasoning optimism, but with a clear consciousness of the many dif- ficulties with which the project is sur- {rounded and a sober will to succeed through the surmounting of those dif- ficulties. Nothing would more surely spell defeat in the great undertaking than a failure on the part of the na- tions concerned to enter the confer- ence hall with that consciousness and {that determination. Nothing can go { turther to insure the attainment of the | goal President Harding has envisioned and outlined than tkat the people of the United States with the peoples of i the other nations concerned should ac-§ {cord the conference that measure of unlted and unstinted support to which its character and purpose entitles it. The time is ripe for the great effort in so far as America is concerned.

On the maintenance or collapse of that temper, here and iabroad, depends success or failure at the conference table. i —— e As a guest at a recent garden party {ut Buckingham Palace, Col.

And vet in both England and Ireland, and for that matter elsewhere, the hurry- up spirit is much in evidence. Be- cause the leaders of the contending forces did not reach, and announce, an agreement at their first meeting, there is grave shaking of heads in many quarters. Just now we are wrestling with a problem seven years old. For our dif- “| ficulties really began when the world war began. Then it was that all busi- ness everywhere was thrown out of plumb, and a soft of general disorder set up. greatly increased in size after we be- came a belligerent.

The Baltimore News (in- dependent) also advances the theory of a wrought-up state of mind and suggests that it may indicate that “the coalition is on such shaky grounds that he is clutching with the unreason of terror at any Straw with which to put down his critics or perhaps his recent honors have given him “an exalted sense of his ast importance.” exhibition of petty spite” is the Columbia State (democratic) the incident, due, perhaps, to the says the Haltimore Sun (inde- fact, pendent democratic), that his nerves are “getting a little out of order.” The | Hartford Times = (democratic) calls him “touchy,” but adds that “all those who believe that in free speech andj a free press lies the safety of a demo- cratic government must make a Vig- orous protest, much as they may sym- pathize” with the premier's politics. On the other hand, the Quincy Whig Journal (republican) remarks: “Those ho are forever proclaiming that t Britain is a simon-pure democ- acy will have lots of explaining to do about p censorship over there and over her The Boston Transcript (independent republican) s “a pretty triumph” for Lord Northcliffe, and hints that it might prove embarrassing to the ment, “though it may not be ient in itself to bring about its The Times' editor, says the Charles- ton News and Courier (democratic). “may know many things to the dis- credit of Mr. Lloyd George, but his testimony as to the premier's unfi ness will not carry great weight out- side of Britain.” and “Americans | would rather deal with him than with {any other Englishman.” A few writers take the stand that criticism of Lloyd George as a repre- sentativ : disarmament confer- {ence is justifiable. The Johnstown Democrat ~ (democratic), for instance, thinks that “Americans distrust” him. | The feature of the discussion “most !inler ng to Americans,” the Buffalo Express (indcpendent republican) de- clares, is “the reasoning on Wwhich Northcliffe bases his opposition to the appointment of Lloyd George” and the foreign minister, Lord Curzon, as delegates. It continues: “He compares their plan with the course of President Wilson in going to Paris with a delegation submissive | to his personal ideas at a time when the elections already had begun to show that the Wilson leadership was not representative of the majority opinion in the country. Mr. Wilson brought home a program which the untry wouid not support. Lord ortheliffe argues that the same thing likely to happen to Lloyd George and Curzon if they attend the Wash ington conference. He says that re- cent by-elections have shown that the present ministry is tottering.” The New York Times (independent democratic) also examines this phase of the question, but does not commit itself to agreement with the North- cliffe view. If the conference suc- ceeded, it points out, the premier could turn to his opposers with a smile and say, “Bring on your gen- eral elections whenever you please.” The whole controversy ~appears to the New York Post (independent) in a more humorous light. It remarks: “The league of na- ticns, which recently passed judg- ment on the ownership of the Aland Islands as between Sweden and Fin- land. might look into this question of whom do the British islands belong to, David Lloyd George or Alfred Harmsworth? Advice to Those About to Marry. 1t Mr. Lloyd George is big enough to realize that his old enemy North- lcliffe is right about the British premier's contemplated visit to Amer- | fea, he will not hesitate to apply, even at ‘the last moment, Punch's “advice to those about to marry"— o This is said in no inhospitable spirit. Mr. Lloyd George could have had every delicacy of this country, in all the banquets his system could stand, lacking only that part which we have constitutionally agreed to consider ldegrading. If we cannot make him lose his head, we can ruin his diges- tion. He can, moreover, have all the titular honors a republic can grant, to the extent of being a doctor of more {universities than he may have believed |the world contained. He can have the freedom of any city he likes, with perhaps the exception of that of New York. We can deny him nothing, but perhaps he will listen to his real} friends here where he resents the turoting of Lord Northcliffe. The disarmament conference should be one of cool, well informed business men, unswayed by political prospects or popular clamor; men who would by no means play to the'gallery. Mr. Lloyd George, with all his talents, is not a business man. Mr. Harding knows how to depute to others duties such as these. The last thing the world wants is a reproduction of the long-drawn-out farce produced ati Paris two years ago. Messrs. Lloyd ! George and Briand, you are as wel- come as flowers in spring.
