SDiscussion of this grave subject has Proceeded too long on gossip and as- ption. In this way.some exaggera- sons doubtless have crept in and con- flised the situation and increased dis- tent. There may mot be 5,000,000 ypemployed men and women in the Uhited States, and among those in @kistence there may not be in all, or even in a majority, of the cases the desperation so vividly described and accepted as fact. "But whatever their number, and whatever their needs, the unemployed, qfid particularly those wishing and seeking for employment, are entitled 1o all the consideration that can be| P&id them, and assisted in every way possible. =Snow time is not distant now, and wihen winter sets in the plight of those Without work or money will be hard and depressing. Moreover, the winter may be protracted, and if it should Bg the distress among the needy will Be great. i Now is the time, therefore, to take up this question and examine it thor- @ighly. Whatever can be done should be done to provide employment for all ‘Who need and want it, and, when em- ployed, are of the kind to render good garvice for good wages.

TMr. Lloyd George’s Vacation. 3David Lloyd George has earned the Wacation he has arranged for himself. Feor seven full years he has been going at top speed. He began going with the _War, and has kept going without a rest, day in and day out. Even before ‘becoming prime minister he had his hands full, and since then they have very full. %In- Jtaly there have been changes. ,Beveral statesman, one after another, Have tried their hands at the wheel. I France several men, one after an- other, have directed affairs. In Amer- jea here Mr. Wilson collapsed under the strain, and in March last handed the reins to Mr. Harding. But in England Lloyd George has Xept steadily on the job, and apparent- 1y grown stronger with its increasing @ifficulties. He is a hardy Welshman and loves work. He is a trained politician and Jmows how to werk. He is a nimble disputant and enjoys a scrap. And for five years now he has been a leading, 1f not the leading, figure in world af- fairs. “This vacation is suggestive on the score of the disarmament conference. Mr. George has been mentioned as the| probable head of the British delega- tion. If he comes to Washington he will have need of his full physical! strength; and this vacation should set him up for all the work and all the play his eminence and influence in af- fairs will impose on him at so mo- mentous a meeting. The stakes will be big, the play will call for skill, and every player should be at his physical apd intellectual best. ————e———————— "It Wilhelm has continued to apply ‘himself to the work of wood chopping fuel prices next winter may enable him to live luxuriously on his personal résources.

If that is the case the monarchists have made a most stupid ‘blunder in taking the life of this man. For tHe result of the assassination hds been a strong outburst of popular sentiment against everything savor- ing of the monarchy and its restora- tion.: The communists and socialists saave risen In demonstration. A giant manifestation is planned for ‘Wednes- day, the day of the burial of Erz- berger. It is to be held, if permitted, in every part of Germany. The news- paper organ of the independent so- cialists formulates the demands of that group follows: Ruthless pursuit of all political murderers; dismissal of all reactionary elements in the bureau- cracy; retirement of reactionary offi- cers in high positions in the reichs- ‘wehr and suspension of the frremov- ability of judges accused of vflitfifll Evidently much has been happening! y that has not been noted : by the outside world. It is plain that the reactionary elements dave been. steadily, seeking in to under-!

That is the condition to the allied reparations demand, and|at most of the grade crossings near especially for the fiscal measures|the crowded venters of this courtry. adopted to effect the payments. But the sapping and mining by the mon- archists has been more extshsive than these efforta indicate. Secret organi- zations have been formed throughout Germany, the existence of which has course, to the government, yet it has been impossible to reach those re- sponsible. The assassination of Erz- berger is now definitely attributed to this secret movement, and the indigna- tion that has been manifested in Berlin is the resultant reaction of a long- pent apprehension. It would seem to be the purpose of masked by trees and buildings end the junkers to cause the overthrow of the present government, headed by Chancellor Wirth. Confusion would probably follow such a collapse, and it seems to be the plan for the mon- archists to attempt to seize the gov- ernment. Whether the plot has gone quite as far as that is not apparent. It may be that the killing of Erzberger has precipitated matters. Judging from the demonstrations, this crime Has been the worst thing that could possibly happen to the monarchist cause. Real Home-Making. ‘Washington is not the only place that has its housing troubles, high rents and inadequate accommodations. Practically every other city .in the United States experienced the same thing during the war, and few of them have recovered. New York, with a very great shortage of facilitles, has been most grievously. hard hit because of the factor of distances from the places of employment. Even with its system of overhead and underground rapid transit the suburb-moving tend- ency has been attended with a heavy handicap. But the people persist in getting away from the crowded sec- tions. They are actually bullding their homes with their own hands. Up in the Bronx recently & village of self- built houses has sprung into existence. At least 200 homes have been erected, and all by family labor. These are not mere shacks, but are artistically de- signed and well constructed buildings. The mother of one of these newly housed families is thus quoted as say- iny “It seems too good to be true. My husband is a policeman, and we were paying $75 a_month for our home in the Bronx. Nothing but people every way you turned. The children had no place to play. Most of the time when 1 let them out I was hanging over the window to see that they were all safe. Life was nothing but a burden. Now 1 can look forward to years of con- tentment and no worry about rent. In eight or ten years this place will be paid for, even if we pay only 350 a month. We have more rooms: It is our own. Look at the children! In the city you have almost to apologize for their existence.” This is real home-making. The chil- dren in this case, while the mother ‘was speaking, were playing on a strip of grass outside of the.veranda where she sat. It was “country” to them. In the city they had never known grass except when they went to the park, maybe several miles away. They had a dog, and in the Bronx apart- ment dogs were forbidden. It was real life. There are two kinds of people, those who like to herd close together and those who like to be a little apart. If there were more of the latter kind, with the right sort of energy and courage, there would be less of a hous- ing problem, and there would be mare ‘happiness. Running By the Stop Signs. In the matter of the practice of motormen to run the street cars be- yond the stop signs, to which attention was called in The Star yesterday, it should be noted that this procedure Is highly dangerous from the operation of the so-called fifteen-foot rule gov- erning vehicles. Under that rule all motor cars and other vehicles must be stopped at least fifteen feet behind the rear entrances of cars halted to discharge or take on passengers. At certain crowded points a street car seldom stops without one or more ma- chines lining up behind it, waiting for clearance of the way. A group of passengers are gathered at the point where the car is expected to stop. The car, however, moves ahead two or three lengths, and the passengers trail along after it, and the leading motor, perhaps already halted at the point where the car should have stopped, trails after them. This adds to the confusion and the risk. It slows the traffic, both vehicular and street raflway. It exposes the people who are waiting for the cars to dangbr. Again it should be urged that the car stops should be absolute and not ap- proximate. If they are not properly placed now to give sufficient space for two standing cars they should be moved. But wherever placed they should be dependable as guides to the points of entrance. ———————— As a pacifist Bergdoll may be re- garded as consistent and complete.

Death at the Crossing. Here are some extracts from a news story printed today: A family of four was wiped out last evening when at an unprotected grade nuuilnur Som: e, N. J., & Cen- tral Railroad of New Jersey locomo- tive tossed an automobile fifty feet, killing all its occupants. Three of the i #l:nl were women. “The train, hitting a lively eI was so near the crossing when the car reached it that the warning bel should have been ringing. The rail- road authorities said later found it in° work! order. Dr.- D’Amico could not have heard it,-for he drove straight on.’ LRY An open road, & waralag bell, moltucus” That is why every few days fatal “ac- cidents’” occur at these points, why the death toll from this cause mounts into the hundreds annually. A warning bell {s about as useful as & turtle in the road. If every motorist would stop, look and listen the bell might be useful—if it worked. But very few motorists do halt their cars on approaching tracks even if there are signs that warn them of the pres- ence of danger ahead. It is, of course, thelr fault when they drive ahead un- heeding and, perhaps, unlistening. But many of these crossings are so banks that the conditions cannot be realized in time for the motorist to check his machine. If an automatic gate were placed across such intersec- tions, to lift which the motorist must stop and get out and operate & crank himself, there would be fewer catas- trophes. Such a barrier returning to position immediately after the crossing of the track would at least prevent motor drivers from rushing their cars into danger without ascertaining the conditions. But whatever devices may be adopt- ed and applied, the problem works round finally to the point where the absolute abolition of these death traps is required. By underpass or bridge the roads should be sent across the rail lines at different grade. In this work the state and the railroad should co-operate. The President and the Philippines. Speaking of the interview Manuel Quezon had with the President on the subject of the Philippines, Philippine Commissioner de Veyra says: “President Harding’'s statement to the effect that his Philippine policy will not countenance any turning backward of the wheels of progress in the island government will have a re- assuring effect upon the Filipino peo- ple. “The President's statement may also tend to favorably influence the kind of & report to be submitted by the ‘Wood-Forbes investigating commis- slon. It is now hoped that the admin- istration will be able to see its way clear to grant independence at an early date.” . ‘We may all be sure there will be no “turning backward of the wheels of progress” in the government of the Philippines in any way affecting the welfare of the people. That welfare will continue to be the object of Amer- ican rule. It is inconceivable, however, that the administration of Leonard Wood will follow the lines of the administra- tion of Francis Burton Harrison. Mr. Harrison, according to opinion in American circles in the islands, as well as in circles here at home, was not a success in office. Under his guidance the wheels of progress did not make the right kind of progress. Gen. Wood will be expected to turn them, not backward, but in the right direction; and he is likely to do that. As to granting independence “at an early date,” that date must be fixed, not with regard alone to the Philip- pines, but to America and the whole of the far east also. In a sense, rule in the archipelago has, as a result of the ‘war, become & world problem; and we are responsible for its solution. “An early date,” therefore, is probably to be qualified by the statement, “as early a date as will promote the wel- fare of all concerned.” —_———— Leader Murphy of Tammany is de- scribed as a golf enthusiast.

Representative Alice Robertson has many sympathisers among editorial writers in her position that women have not the necessary experience to enable them to quallfy as delegates to the disarmament conference. The attitude her supporters uniformly take is that thq appointment of a woman, because she is & woman, would introduce an element of sex ‘wholly unrelated to the issues of the conference, and that the prime requirements of diplomatic and polit- ical training and sagaclty cannot be met by any woman. However, the woman delegate has many more ad- vocates in the press than she has opponents. Representative Robertson's “mental inventory of American womanhood"” is not "intended, the Minneapolis Tribune (republican) insists, as “a slur on her sex.” Rather, the Syra- cuse Herald (independent) agrees, “it s the recognition of a demon- stratable truth, and not in any sense a reflection upon the intellectual ca- pacity of womanhood,” because, as the Wheeling Intelligencer (repubii- can) states it, “no matter what her natural qualifications, it is doubtful if 2 woman could be found with the requisite experience essential to par- ticipation in conferences as important that to be held in Washington.” he Indianapolis Star (independent republican), doesn’'t even entertain doubts, but declares “that there is not & woman In the United States so gualified may safely be said with- Qut o 'nvestigation.” Certainly ‘it s any woman whose ‘b of practical diplomatic prerlc':e.sdlll: unusual,” the Baltimore American (independent republican) thinks, *she has succeeded in hiding her talents Wwith great success,” and since, in the view of the writer, “the most !er;:ggrr‘t:;.cte gualification i diplematic . the conclusi - capable that “the dlsn“r!m%r;né;t“::;- te‘r‘g}r.-‘t;: lfa:m place for a woman.” no very dist y may Sxpect that woman's leg::’ln:: e will develop wor publicists well equipped suoh service,” still, the ulnhpepnepon:ogou:':.cuh }‘ltr;‘«:insxe‘m rap:blican) points out, s not here.” If i A Indeed, “the country haa auw:r:r:'; " Professional fitness ‘and recognized Sxperience and ability for this work,” thatPutte Post (republican) contends ere would be no thought of gblectlon” " to her appointment as However, in the opinion of the Augusta Chr onicle (democratic) *f believe that there ratic) “few is a0 Amerlca fitted by abllity, ensoniel sagacity, z:fim;::l Incf‘l’uefnce to sit li;n':mye nference.” Such positton, s - letchs; it holds, “is not only far. e 88 to accuracy, but vv;g;)'::yhlncm'n_-ldenu and offensive to bernanhood.” and “the nation knows Derter.” But, even if 1t were neces- ment, ‘the Columble.
