If the House concurs the law will be continued until May 22 next. If it does not concur before Oc- tober 22 the act will expire by limita- tion, the commission will cease to exist and the rental situation in Wash- ington will become, as before, subject to the supply of accommodations. If there is a surplus of houses and apart- ments beyond the demand, as con- tended by realtors, rents will probably remain at their present stage, or pos- sibly will show a decline. If. on the other hand, there is still a shortage, rents will advance from the points fixed by the commission. Now that the Senate has passed the extension bill it is for the House to consider whether it should go to com- mittee for extended hearing or should be put upon its passage at once. ‘The approach of the recess period puts a premium upon speed if this matter is to be disposed of before ad- journment. But recently assurance ‘was given that hearings would be ac- eorded before committee in the House, and if this program is carried out it is difficult to see how final action can be had before a week from today, ‘when the houses begin their brief va- ecation. In that case just a month will remain after reconvening if the ex- tension is to be voted before the Ball law expires. The size of the vote given in the S8enate for extension shows a heavy preponderance of judgment in that body that the war-time emergency upon which the Supreme Court based its ruling sustaining the law still con- tinues. Doubtless those who thus voted for the bill did so with full ap- Ppreciation of the fact that no oppor- tunity will be afforded, in the brief period, for a test of the constitutional- ity of the extemsion act, and thus based their support upon a belief that the court would again rule to sustain the law if the case could be placed be- fore it If that is also the belief of the House the extension bill will be enacted. In any case it is incumbent upon those who are in a position to provide new accommodations, through renewed building operations, to pre- pare at once for a resumption of con- struction. New dwellings and apart- ments started now will be coming into the market for use just about the time the extension expires. There is small likelihood that the emergency condi- tions will prevail in May next, and if additional accommodations are mean- while provided there will be no pos- sible basis for further legislation. l In referring to the dominions of Great Britain, De Valera states that they are so far away that they are less liable than Ireland to interfer- ences. According to this view, dis- tance lends enchantment in govern- ment as well as in scenery. ————— The only disadvantage the average German citizen can perceive in'a re- public is that it is less magnificent in costumes and scenery than the old monarchy. —_———— The soviet government appears to gather responsibility as it departs from the ideas set up by the earlier sovietists. —_————te———— Peter Karageorgevitch. Peter Karageorgevitch died yester- day at Belgrade, a pathetic figure of age and infirmity. He was King of Serbia for over eighteen years, with two lapses of abdication due to poor health. His career was one of tragedy and romance. Peter was the son of a former ruler of Serbia, then head of the house of Karageorgevitch. He received his military education in France, and served in the French foreign legion in the war of 1870-71. A few years later, the Karageorgevitch family having been driven from power at Belgrade by the Obrenovitch, he returned to the Balkans, and under another name led & revolt of the Serbs in Bosnia and Herzegovina against Turkish oppres- sion. When later Serbia declared war on Turkey Peter offered his services to Milan, then ruler, who declined them, despite Peter’s pledge that he would make no move against the Obrenovitch dynasty. So for thirty years longer Peter remained in exile, mostly in Paris, the city of his affec- tions. He became widely known as a pressed. He was content with his life. Suddenly he was summoned from his pleasant life by a terrible tragedy at t in June, 1903, a band of broke into the living apart. ments of the king and queen, Alex- ander and Draga, and murdered them shockingly, killing several of attendants also. This crime bad Been precipitated by a long succession THE EVENING STAR, Karageorgevitch was the next in suc- cession. So four days after the as- sdssinations a deputation from Bel- grade waited on him in Paris and tendered the throne to him. He ac- cepted, and doubtless with some re- pugnance, for he was at heart a gen- tle man and though a soldier abhorred needless cruelty. Some suspected that he had been cognizant of the plot against Alexander and Draga. He denied vehemently. Whatever the fact, he went to Belgrade and took the throne—and found the cold shoulders of certain of the. powers turned upon him. England withdrew her minister and was unrepresented at Belgrade for some years. Failing in health, Peter relinquished the throne to his son some time before the great war, but upon the outbreak of hostilities he resumed authority and headed his nation throughout the struggle. He suffered with his people and became a refugee with them. Upon the return of peace he yielded the throne again, and had been failing in health steadily since. He was taken from Greece to his capital some months ago, In order that he might die where he was born. So passes one whose life has been spent mostly in exile, one of the most sorrowful men who ever wore a crown. —_——————— The Unemployed. The Secretary of Labor reports that, at present, 5,735,000 persons are out of employment in the United States. The figure is very large, and as Congress is interested in the subject let us hope that steps of some kind may be taken to relieve the situation. The situation, of course, is abnor- mal. Business is dislocated to a great- er extent than while the war was in progress. Capital is extremely nerv- ous, not being able to calculate safely either as to tariff revision or tax re- vision. Both subjects are mnow under discussion on Capitol Hill, and until they are settled capital will not feel perky. Labor is extremely discontented. Men without work want work, while those with work are suspicious of, every proposition looking to a reduc- tion of wages. And so we have not only a great deal of unemployment in the country, but some reason—several reasons—for it. Discussion as to the cause has taken a wide and rather unsatisfactory range. In pre-war days there were periods of business depression when large numbers of men and women were idle. One thing or another caused it, but no one thing ever cured it. Sometimes it cured itself. But in every instance there was a cure. A return to mormalcy filled the dinner pails again, and contentment spread over the land. We are aver a hundred million strong, and in normal times a capable and industrious peo- ple. Gen. Crowder in Cuba. Gen. Crowder, who has been in Cuba for some time assisting with advice in questions of government, will, it is stated, still further prolong his stay. His presence is welcome, and he has been of recognized service to the au- thorities. ‘We are interested in Cuba. We set her up in business, and are her spon- sors before the world. All things con- sidered, she has done well. It was no easy matter for men reared under a form of government of long standing to turn upon its downfall to the very opposite form; for men who had thrown off a foreign yoke to adjust to their shoulders a yoke of their own. But, in good fashion, the Cubans have accomplished that. After a little stumbling—inevitable in beginners— they straightened up, found their feet, and have been making progress. Only recently they disposed of a ticklish Ppolitical situation in e very satisfac- tory manner. At present Cuba is wrestling with conditions growing out of the war. ‘What nation, big or little, is not? The war upset the world. Cuba could not have escaped. Her diffieulties are the greater be- cause her eggs are nearly all in one basket. When sugar is depressed, Cuba is depressed; and just now sugar is wery much depressed. The price is very low, and while it remains so Cuba must remain in a state of anxiety. Gen. Crowder has shown com- petency for his mission, and the pro- longation of his stay in the island is in our interests as well @s in those of Cuba. ——————— ‘The fame of the pugilist cannot rest alone on his fighting abilities or his conversational talents.

Mile. Lenglen’s Default. Yesterday’s tennis match at Forest Hills, N. Y., between the American and French woman champions, was a grievous disappointment to those who had been drawn by the fame of the challenger from Paris. Arriving in this country in {ll health, she had been compelled to seek a postponement of the match, which was granted. When she faced her opponent across the net, yesterday she was in poor form and, after losing the first set in & manner which showed that she was no match whatever for the American champion, she started the second badly and then defaulted. Mile. Lenglen's fame had preceded her to America. She was regarded in Europe as thé most wonderful woman ‘who ever wielded a racquet. Accounts and photographs of her in the game showed @ marvel of speed, precision and driving power. She had the ten- nis temperament to a phenomenal de- gree. Very few men could withstand her ekill on the court. No other Euro-|mere form of investment s marriage pean weman had ever beaten her gfter | certificate is even more uncertain than in the game. The question was whether she could beat Molla Bjurstedt, Mallory. And, ' unfortunately, that question is not yet definitely settled, despite yesterday's fiasco. For there remains a doubt in view of the obvious fact that the Frenchwoman was far off her game. Whatever the outcome of the pres- ent tournament, it is to e hoped that before she returns to France Mlle. Lenglen, in her best form, will meet Mrs. Mallory in a test match to deter- mine this doubt. Such a match would not affect the title, if won by the lat- ter in the present tourney. But it would be a gratification to know whether the real championship be- longs to this country or to France. In the matter of pugilism no such doubt now exists. Carpentier had no alibi for his defeat. Mlle. Lenglen has a perfectly good one that is generally accepted and sincerely regretted. —_————————— The Greeks Start Again. Evidently not deterred by the pos- sibllity of a holy war just declared by the King of the Hedjaz, the Greeks have started @ renewed offensive against the Turkish nationalists. They have begun to advance from their Editorial Digest. The Disarmament Sessions. If, as the Columbia Record (demo- cratic) declares, “the editors of Amer- ica will be responsible for the opinion of this nation on ‘the subject” of full publicity for all the activities of the coming disarmament conference, that opinion will not be a unanimous one, judging by the divergent positions which editors are taking in the mat- ter. To the Record it is “inconceiv- able that the American press, as the spokesman of American public opin- fon, shall for one minute concede the right of this government to promote a secret meeting.” Nevertheless, a very substantial portion of the press not only concedes this right, but urges the necessity for observing some of the established principles of private negotiations. Granting that the theory of “open covenants openly arrived at” is unassailable as a theory, many papers try to show how impossible its practical operation is. But the principle is ardently defend- ed, as well, by other writers who de- mand that it be made the rule in the disarmament discussions. The conference is *more likely to be productive of its best work,” the Mobile Register (democratic) feels, “if it take: the whole world into its confidence.’ Since its participants have agreed to base east of Eskishehr, the Turks fall- ing back without giving battle. The nationalist government is being re- moved from Angora to Caesarea, 160 miles to the southeast. The Turkish armies, however, will not withdraw so far into the mountains, but will stand, it is reported, at the River Sakaria, where a strong defensive position has been prepared. During the weeks of Greek preparations for the second of- fensive Kaimal has not been idle, but has been recuperating his beaten army and strengthening its supplies. If he can stop the Greek advance at the river Constantine will be in a diffi- cult sityation, and may have to re- linquish his campaign, for he is now more than 200 miles from his sea base, and transport is hard through the rough country, with a poor railroad equipment. But if, on the other hand, Kaimal is beaten he must fall back to a still' deeper position in the hills. This line is stated to run from Caesarea to Yozgad, the latter a little over 100 miles east of Angora. In this situation Kaimal will be about 450 miles from Smyrna. At that point Constantine could rightly claim a victory, provided he had the force and supplies to hold his gains. Meanwhile much depends upon what the Arabs do. If they re- spond to the call for a holy war fhey may force intervention by the Bifitish and French. meet “with the honest intention of reaching agreement to reduce arma- ment,” there is “no game of diplomacy to be played,” therefore ‘‘there is no reason for secrecy, and there is good reason why the door should be left open, as the very fact that it is open will tes- tify to the sincerity with which the na- tions enter the conference.” The Spring- fleld (Mo.) Leader (democratic) agrees that *“an open meeting will show who is sincere and who is not,” and in order to determine that vital point “the best in- terests of the world demand public meet- ings.” flimmlnl many of the arguments against ‘‘public interference” in delicate control their destinies,”” and while the world has had ‘“enough tragic experi ence with secrecy,” it has not yet “lost faith in the idea of open covenants openly arrived at.” Secrecy, indeed, is more than likely to defeat disarmament, in the opinion of the St. Paul News (independent), and “in the interests of jts own success the conference should be as open as day.” Even though ‘“complete publicity may involve well-nigh interminable discus- sion and a great waste of words,” the Winston-Salem Journal (democratic) contends that there is ‘‘no need of haste and delays will not be dangerous.” Dis- armament, the Journal holds, is “a peo- ple’s movement rather than one of gov- ernments,” and ‘“‘unquestionably an open conference is what the public wants” in the consummation of that movement. But “it is very easy to demand full publicity, and it always strikes a popular chord.” the Adrian (Mich.) Telegram (independent) observes. However, as many writers insist, it is not so easy to obtain, Negotiations, She Telegram points out at some length, do not readily lend themselves to an “audience,” since: “When men negotiate they have to argue and persuade; coax, flatter and even threaten; make and withdraw offers, vield here and there; trade one con- cession for another—the whole proc- ess finally ending in agreement. To try to carry on such a rocess in public might be entertaining, but very hard on the negotiators and very dis- turbing to the result.” “This sort of werk,” the News (independent) agrees, “cannot be ecarried on in a public debating so- ciety,” and hievement “would be ery action of the con- subjected to the mo- ¥ A birthday party for the former em- peror of Austria will be closely su- pervised to hold the greetings to happy returns of the day without men- tioning possible return of the mon- archy. $ The chemist who claims to havel made reality of an old adage by treat- ing gelatinous fibers so as to make a silk purse of a sow's ear arrives too late.

Globe (democratic) makes another point in the discussion f Economy can hardly be considered complete unless it guards against the waste of man power incident to in- voluntary unemployment. i In soviet Russia, as elsewhere, the dinner bell is always a reliable in- fluence toward quieting conversational agitation. publicity may be an American ideal and e justifiable demand for this country to make, “due consideration must be given to the desires of the people of other nations” in the mat- ter, and since “there is a difference { Silesia has asserted itself as & hard knot in a series of political entangle- ments. between what is theaoretically correct and what is practical” the United States must {n the end “concede some things if the conference is to be a success.” i SHOOTING STARS.
