Formal announcement that Secre- tary Hughes will head the American delegation at the disarmament confer- ence sets at rest any question that have been raised whether the President himself would attend in the capacity as chief American representa. tive. It was hardly to be expected that he would do so, yvet there was some speculation on that score, based upoi the precedent of Mr. Wilson's partici- pation in the Versailles conference. Mr. Hughes' selection is eminently appropriate. That he has been since March 5 responsible in large degree for the framing of the international policies of this government is accept- ed. As head of the State Department he is recognized in foreign countries as the representative of the views of the executive. The invitations have gone forth in his name. He is doubts dess fully conversant with all the questions that will be ‘discussed, in the preliminary exchange of views re- garding the agenda and in the confer- ence in chief. Taking the notes already published as the basis of the American position, together with the public utterances of the President, there remains little doubt of the attitude of the delegates of the United States, headed by the Secretary of State. They will stand for the smoothing out of obstacles to international amity, for the prompt settlement of questions that have in them through postponement and pro- traction the elements of discord and suspicion. They will seek to resolve the far eastern situation into the fac- tors of undeniable national interest, and from them as the basis work to an agreement that will preserve our own as well as other concerns, and thus leave the way clear to a sincere con- sideration of the possibility and wis- dom of a mutual pledge by the powers to stop competition in armament. It is, of course, not assured that a basis can be found for permanent far eastern settlement. But it is surely possible to discover through discus- sion the national aspirations of the powers concerned. If each delegation comes to the conference in a spirit of frankness and with an honest purpose to find, if possible, the formula of un- derstanding, the elements of conceiv- able conflict can be disclosed. And when they are found and stated ad- justment may follow. And with ad- justment may come realization that the competition in naval construction and in the maintenance of armies un- der the guise of “insurance” is un- warranted. Mr. Hughes’ designation to head the American delegation will be accepted as assuring a clear, direct and ef- fective statement of the principles that underlie the effort to reach an agreement to lessen the burden of armament. In his state papers thus far he has shown a talent for explicit exposition. His diplomacy is of the direct style. His exceptional knowl- edge of the law fits him for the role ‘with particular appropriateness. His selection is in every way satisfactory. The President Doing Well. The host at a luncheon Thursday in this town, which had been attended by several cabinet officers and several members of the republican national committee, said after the function, in reply to an inquiry: “We talked about how well Mr. Harding is doing as President.” Mr. Harding seems to be satisfying ‘Those who are nearest to his party. him and those at a little distance from him unite in approval of his course. And outside of political circles praise is cordial. Business men who have conferred with him and business men informed of affairs by the newspapers compliment his grasp of the situation. Confidence - begets confidence. The ®onfidence the people put in the Presi- dent doubtless gives him the greater confidence in himself—encourages him to investigations and prompt decisions. He has but begun. The hard going —and some of it very hard—is before him. He will have what is called “a time of it” next year, and the greater part of the year. The congressional elections will be in the calculations of both parties, and the leaders in both will be watching their steps. As the leader of his party, Mr. Harding will not only be watching his . own steps, but helping to watch the steps of others. He will not want anybody to make a misstep. Missteps are costly on the eve of a national campaign, and would be especially so now, with tension great and all the issues of a highly important character. ———————— Henry Ford bought a railroad of his own, raised wages, lowered rates and secured satisfactory financial return. A great many jokes have been made about the fiivver king, but every now and then he has a little laugh of his own. L —————— The Mob Spirit. In speaking of the recent lynching of a murderer in Virginia the Rich- mond Times-Dispatch says: ““The mob spirit, which has been so painfully evident in certain other states, and which, unjustly or not, has ‘brought reproach upon the south, has no basis for existence in Virginia. It ‘betokens either a brutal and brutaliz- ing defiance and disrespect for the law, or it betrays a lack of confidence in the eficiency of our courts. The | | ! | Ipa!rialed Silesians, to vote according to their former nationalistic inclina- tions, and then to return to the lands former premise is the only tenable one in the regrettable affair.” The mob spirit has no basis for extstence anywhere./ Everywhere ex- hibited “it betokens a brutal and brutalizing deflance and disrespect for the law.” The mob cares nothing about the courts. It does not take them into ac- count. It does not concern ftself about the procedure in those tribunals, whether it be slow or swift. It some- times snatches from the authorities a prisoner under sentence of death and awaiting execution, and substitutes it- self as executloner. There is no subject more baffiing than this. As a rule, officers of the law try to defend their prisoner. It frequently happens that prominent citizens expose themselves to affgonts, and plead with jobs to forbear and let the law take its course. And the press invariably speaks out, as this Virginia newspaper does, in unstinted condemnation of mob violence. grow. It is not confined to any one section, nor is it inflamed by eny one crime. It covers the country now, and men are sometimes lynched for petty larceny. Up to the League. ‘The council of the league of nations will pass upon the question of Upper Silesia. The allied supreme council thus relegates the troublesome issue to another body, larger and slower of action. By this reference doubtless an acute breach detween England and France was averted, and there will be rejoicing, save in certain quarters, on that score. But the delay may prove troublesome. If the major allied powers can strict- ly preserve the status quo in Upper Silesia, pending decision by the league council, the postponement of settle- ment will not be harmful. But already there are tokens of increasing ferment in the region, as Poles and Germans are, according to some reports, pre- paring for possible conflict in the dis- puted areas. Admittedly, the Silesian boundary is one of the toughest problems left by the war. Self-determination is quite impossible in the area of acute dis- pute. The plebiscite has shown that popular voting is not an assured guide to majority wish. Both sides brought back from far countries long ex- of their permanent habitation. Each side has accused the other of doing the most of this vote importation, which was permitted under the terms of the plebiscite. ‘Whatever the sources of the votes, the referendum showed a most puz- zling range of possible decisions. In the area as a whole there were more German than Polish votes. But in cer- tain sectors the Polish preponderance was heavy. A line drawn according to these local majorities would wind like @ snake's tfack through the disputed country, doubling and twisting into the most complex international boun- dary in the world. Having referred the case to the league council, it is the business of the supreme council, that is to say of the governments represented in it, to maintain order in Upper Silesia pend- ing decision. If more troops are need- ed to maintain that order they should be sent quickly in proportions now to be agreed upon, without the necessity of complex exchanges between capi- tals. For peace in Upper Silesia may mean peace in Europe. The Trade Competition. Trade wars, so-called, involving-| American shipping have operled. News comes from Egypt, from Europe and from South America. Not wars. The word war has an unpleasant, sound at this time. It calls up bitter experiences. As applied to trade it conveys too much. Competi- tion is a better word, and conveys enough. Its use ought to be encour- aged. Trade competition, then, has opened. Our competitors and ourselves are getting into action. When all get into their stride and trade is booming again the action will be lively. In the long run, the best man, with staying power and good management, will win. That is the rule, and we should guide by the rule. It is going to be a warm and pro- tracted contest. The best traders in the world will be in the field. The largest stakes ever offered will be the lure. Unless experienced men are mis- calculating, the world is entering upon an era of unprecedented trade oppor- tunities. So much depends on trade, and so great will soon be the volume of production, and so adequate the means of distribution, all trade rec- ords will be eclipsed. Our proper place is among the leaders; and we should take it and keep it. Hustle is the word. Hustle is expected of us, and expectation should not be disappointed. We are pitted against hustlers, and it is up to us to demonstrate that in this matter, as in other matters, American hustle has a meaning all its own. ———————————— There would be more encourage- ment for the idea of an immediate drastic reduction of Army and Navy if nations had in the past shown more enthusiasm about following in the footsteps of righteous example. —_—————— When a governmental treasury is unable to keep close count of where the money is going, a problem as to where it is coming from is certain to follow. An Executive Session. - ‘The nomination of Frank A. Linney to be district attorney for the western district of North Carolina was con- firmed by the Senate the other day. A press report says: “Mr. Linney was charged with hav- ing prevented voting of North Caro- lina negroes. He also was criticized for his alleged statement that he favored applying the literacy test to illiterate white persons as well as negroes. It took almost three hours of stormy debate behind closed doors to confirm Mr. Linney, and a veteran senator sald the discussion over the race question was like former ‘bloody shirt’ debates.” g Surely here was a case where every consideration called for an open ses- sion of the Senate. The importance . (i And yet the mob spirit seems !l! of the office, the prominence of the appointee, the gravity of the charge that he had interfered with the exer- cise by citizens of the right of suf- frage, all called for the fullest dis- cussion in the open and the fullest atténdance of members. Mr. Linney, the public and the administration were all entitled to publicity as to details. And yet the doors, were closed, and ell that issues from behind them is that, after three hours of ‘“‘stormy debate,” recalling a past era of bitter- ness between the sections, the nomi- nation was confirmed by a vote of 31 to 17—just half the membership of the Senate. X An open session would probably have insured a full attendance of sen- ators, a full vote and full information to: the country on a matter which carries weight beyond the borders of North Carolina and outside the office to which it related in the Senate's secret and stormy confabulation. l ‘The patient horse should perhaps be made to bear a special tax like automobiles. The use of the horse is now exceptional; sometimes an osten- tation of luxurious conservatism. His slow pace demands special considera- tion on the highway. He represents a special privilege, and to those who prize him should be well worth an. ex- tra expense toward assisting the pub- lic revenues. ! There used to be a good-natured argu- ment between Chicago and New York as to which was the wickeder city. Crime waves have become so common that even the most reckless communi- ties cease to consider them as pic- turesque forms of advertisement. } A tariff protecting motion pictures against forelgn competition would logically call for a tariff protecting novels, plays and musical composi- tions. The contract is a large one even for patriotism to undertake. l Nobody is_found committed to the belief that a small island in the Pacific ocean can assert itself as an obstruction to civilized commerce. l The German citizens would rather work to pay debts in the interests of peace than labor as they did for years to create the extravagances of war. 1 One. thing Northclife must enjoy about railroad travel is the fact that the dinner announcement of the din- ing car steward is never canceled. 1 Mr. Dawes is naturally eloquent, but evidently belleves there are times when words should be saved, as well as money. ! The undeveloped resources of Rus- sia represent one of the worst forms of stagnation the world markets have ever had to consider. f Trotsky should be required, for the education of the public, to write an- other book. explaining exactly why his theories did not work out. L § Limitation of armament has the advantage not always enjoyed by diplomatic proposals of being widely popular. President Harding's speeches show that he does not dismiss the cares of his position even during his vacations. \ The argument against sovietism is expressed in a famine more pathetic than any hunger strike.

Editorial Digest Bread and Bolshevism. Wow that Russia has accepted thd terms laid down by Hoover ang rellef is assured for her starving millions, hints from Europe, reflected in some American newspapers, have come from various sources to the effect that the powers are about to make a new “drive” with bread instead of bullets against bolshevism. While noAmerican writers impugn such a motive to Mr. Hoover's unofficial efforts, here and there are suggestions that during the relief campaign certain “wholesome ideas” may be served along with the nourishing meals that are ‘to be pro- vided. The idea finds both support and opposition among the newspa- pers, but most of the comment ig- nores this phase of the question and simply points out our duty to alle- viate the suffering which is looked upon as the result of soviet rule and an example of its dangers. The' Schenectady Gazette (demo- cratic) carefully points out that “it would be contrary to the ethics of international politics to* undermine the government of any country.” It adds that “it is due to their willing- ness to follow blindly that has le the mass of Russians into their present plight,” and “a little educa- tion might set them .on the right track.” No change in government wan be expected immediately, the New Haven Journal-Courier (inde- pendent) believes, but it advises in the meantime: “Give them food: safe- guarq its_distribution. It will ve life.” And, it concludes, “it will pro- mote thought.” Both Europe and America, says the Portland Oregonian (independent re- publican), has good cause “to hate the Russian idea, if not the Russian peas- ant”” But it declares: “It would seem to the bystander that the duty of saving Russia, from starvation as from political peril, devolves not on America, but on Europe. We do not quibble. We did not seek the role of Samaritan to all and sundry. It was forced upon us four years ago, and America took it up right gladly.” The New York Times (independent democratic) thinks that we should “ignore the unreasonable but intelli- gible position taken by the nominal rulers of Russia” and proceed with relief measures, “leaving the large political results to be worked out by the new forces which have been let loose.” This viewpoint the Johnstown Demo- crat (democratic) interprets as mean- ing that “help is now being extended to starving Russia in the hope that the charity given will prove a means of unhorsing the soviet government. It continues: “Capitallsm is making a play for Russia. There is ajchance that the holders of Russian sedurities may yet get their meney. If the old czarist crowd can go back to Russia at the head of the bread line, it will simply be swept back into power. But anything that can be swept in can be swept out. The wise course would be to offer charity that had no ulterior motives. Charity that is a part of a "1 political scheme will lead to trouble.” If_this assumption Is correct, that the "Russians be given a choice of the acceptance of a more orthodox political creed or starvation,” the New York World (democratic) believes that “no more cold-hearted or_cynical sugges- tion” has been made “in the long his- tory of the injustice” to Russia. “Un- less the war has destroyed every trace of humanity and eympathy in the more prosperous countries,” says the World, “they will offer assistance without de- manding a price.” -It would be “far better,” says the Hartford Times (democratic), “to feed the starving, to and let Russia work The New York Globe (independent) takes a different but sympathetic view, declaring that “bolshevism seems to be waning, but if it perishes in this emergency it will be of the world's charity, not of the world’s hate.” A similar’ view. is taken by the Wichita Eagle (independent), which laments the fact that this country has been “somewhat slow” toward offering aid to Russia, but adds that “international ill-will would be covered up by inter- national charity, which is capable of covering such a multitude of fll-will.” The Boston Herald (independent re- publican) commends steps taken by this country, as well as Britain and France, and concludes that “all three can well afford to ignore the ungra- cious fencing of bolshevism and join whole-heartedly in the work of relief.” “Food is what Russia needs no tersely comments the Syracuse Her- ald (independent); “let the diplo- matic adjustments come afterwar And the Winston -Salem Journal (democratic) remarks, “The call of Russia sounds the duty of mankind.” A _great many writers, however, confine their comment to tracing the blame for famine and pestilence to the vicious methods of the Lenin gov- ernment. “The tragic fate of Rus- sia,” says the Chicago Tribune (inde- pendent _republigan), “is the direct result of the inghiility of the men in control of Russ¥in affairs under the bolshevik regime to keep the essen- tial machinery of organized soclety in motion.” This is likewise the opinion of the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times (re- publican), which considers the situa- tion “the logical sequence of events,” and the Memphis Commercial-Appeal (democratic), which concludes that “the Lenin regime” not only has done the harm the present situation illus- trates, but ‘“has failed utterly to bring to Russia one Single benefit.” Taxes. If President Harding has yielded to the importunities of the House lead- ers #o reduce the national income far below the national expenditure dur- ing_ the coming fiscal year he has made a sacrifice to opportunism that will yet cost him dearly. Few good Americans desire a reduction of tax- ation on such a false basis. It is a ruinous practice and it contains an essential- element of double-dealing with the people. There is no question that the American people desire of the republican party a reduction of taxation, but this they really mean to be a reduction of federal extrava- gance. To make up a deficit ai the end of the fiscal year by an issue of short-term certificates of "indelBted- ness, such as is contemplated, appar- ently is something that the United States government has never before contemplated in peace times. Playing politics with taxation re- vision_is an expensive sport. Presi- dent Harding has shown such ad- mirable pertinacity in his program of economy and retrenchment so far that it is a pity that the character of the work may be undermined by congressional intransigence. — Balti- more Sun (independent democratic). Love Lost Among Nations. Into Viscount Bryte's addresses at ‘Williamstown there creeps from time to time a vein of disillusionment. “Nobody ever heard of a nation whose virtues made other nations love it.” Though love may be lost in the shuffle of international relations, the instinct of justice is strong. The first need of the nations is a body of law, sound and compact, with a duly established court to interpret it. It is not true that without an organized international army and navy the de- cision of such a court will kave no “sanction.’ Even. in’ individual na- tions the ultimate sanction of law lies in public opinion. If there had been a court in 1914 to pass judg- ment upon German aggression, there would have been no war, or, at worst, a comparatively short one. In Paris, Lloyd George pointed out on Tuesday that what saved Friince in the late war was the justice of her cause, which eventually ranged all the free nations at her side; and he sounded a very solemn warning that if in future her cause was un- just she would stand alone. That is true_of all nations—a fact which may well be remembered next autumn at ‘Washington—New York Times (inde- pendent democratic).
