Disruption of the program for the reclamation and development of the Anacostia flats is threatened unless Congress removes the, restriction against expenditure of funds in ex- tending the work north of Benning bridge.

In his testimony yesterday before { the House ways and means committee, Secretary Mellon put a quietus on ve- | ports that the administration plans toj hold the debt owed this government ! Iby the governments of Europe as a club over the heads of the debtor na- tions at the armament conference, jand for that reason was willing that passage of the debt-funding bill should Ibe delayed. Answering a direct ques- tion as to whether there was any ob- Jjection to waiting until after ‘the con- jof the Treasury said he did not think |such a course ‘would be wise, adding that some foreign governments were negotiating setflements among them- selves, and that the United States should be prepared to participate with them speedily for protection of its own interests. ‘The proposal that the United States, as the creditor of Europe, should “put the screws” to England. France and Italy and force them to curtail their armaments has had advocates in many quarters, but it was inconceiv- able that it should have been serious- Iy considered in respongible adminis- tration circles. No course could be more destructive of good feeling and that Detter understanding the attain- ment of which is absolutely essential {if the world is to curtail its arms. And there is the further consideration that the exertion of any such pres- sure would give to Japan, which does {not owe money to the United States.} a tremendous advantage in the nego-| tiations over other participating na- tions. Equally unwise and portentous of | bad feeling is the proposal advanced in the Senate that Congress, in mak- ing up mext year'’s budge should reckon on the collection of $500,000,000 Just how this program contemplates that the United States should set!| in case tain that nothing further would be America was a grasping money-| lender, bent on having its pound of; sufferings which might entail.

The fourth group embraced those south of the Eastern branch, begin- ning with Fort Mahan, aboy ning. and ending with Fort Greble, on the District hills above the Potomac and nearly opposite Alexandria. The work of building forts, batteries and emplacements for mobile artille and connecting them with intrench ments for infantry and with military roads went on during the four years of the civil war, and “one of the forts—McPherson, standing within the grounds of Arlington—was building when the peace of Appomattox came Three other civil war forts and \uwl battery standing on government res- ervations are in what might be called a fair state of preservation. These are Fort De Russy and an emplace- ment for mobile artillery in Rock Creek Park, and Forts Davis and Dupont, on the ridge south of the Eastern branch and near the eastern end of the Eastern branch chain of fortifications. ¢ ——————— “Slug the Ball.” Umpire Billy Evans deplores the tendency of players in the big leagues this season to “slug the ball,” holding that the desire to knock the ball out of | the lot has made a poorer game all around. While it-is easy to see the umpire’s | standpoint, probabiy Jority of “fans” will not agree with him. For, after all, the average lover of the great American sport likes a “hit-and-run” game. And when the ball is lively enough, evidently the players do, too. 1t is just another case of giving the people what they want. There is no galnsaying the fact that to most people the thrills come in base ball when the bases are full. or rea- the great ma- sonably so, and a good hitter comes up. Crack! And around they go. Good lively hitting is the life of the game. “Squeeze” plays have their place, and the bored umpire naturally likes them, | with other specimens of inside base ball. But the spectator is not bored a bit by the hitandrun game. He likes it. There is. however. a bigger reason behind it than merely the desire to see a player “slug the ball.” For all un- consciously the player who can “hit it out” represents the man who -does things. the achiever, the doer. Such a man is dear to the hearts of all real Americans. He is the ideal of most of us. This country is filled with men in all walks of life who “'slug the ball" {for all they are worth. No wnndorl they like to see it done in a base¢ ball game. ————— Obstructions to an American mer- chant marine are referred to by Chair- man Lasker as ‘“seemingly insur- in its work of reclaiming|p..; Legardiess of the hardships and | mountable.” Close students of English will appreciate the diseriminating pre- cision with which that word ‘‘seem- ingly” is,employed. —_————— well un- he will A prohibition agent m: derstand at the outset that never attain the kind of popularity which in days gone by caused men to lean against the railing and sing, “Oh, He's a Jolly Good Fellow.” ———— Coupling up of propaganda for can- cellation of the debt with the proposal i that it shall be adjusted and adminis- | tered on a businesslike: basis is| wholly unwiarranted.

C, FRIDAY, - OCTOBER 7, Editorial Digest ! A Twentieth Amendment? While the nature of a possible twen- {tieth amendment to the Constitution occasioned some fearful speculation, {in view of the revolutionary charac- er of the two latest additions to that nstrument, it has vemained for the I national woman’s’ party actually to draft one and secure promise of its lintroduction in Congress. This meas- lure proposes, in brief, to abrogate “in every respect the common law dis- abilities 0f women.” The attitude of the American press toward this pro- sed amendment ranges from ac- it as a matter of course, a corollary of the nineteenth to branding it “a silly {joke.” And following the well worn |trail of the suffrage movement, the demarcation line between these two oints of view coincides pretty closely {with the Mason and Dixon line. Now that women have been given {the right of ballot “why should there {be any objection to giving them such property and other civil rights as will place them on an equality with men?” asks the Canton (Ohio) News (demo- cratic), for “the archaic idea that a man should have control of his wife's logical amendment, property any more than that of {another woman should be abandoned. American women “are entitled 1o this protection,” declares the Rock Island_(1lL) Argus (democratic). and the Emporia Gazette (republican) {finds “nothing in the program to which any man_can object.” "It feels, therefore, that “any denial of the full 1y state is unfair to the that state, id that its a federal measure should program by | women of passage have nooth sailing. Th magna charta of equality,” | the Grand Rapids Press (independ- | ent) believes, has been made neces- || ry by rapidly changing conditions,| affecting women, and “we may as || well face the' fact,” it sa that, || while “American women used tofl ! bound their whole existence by the|! | limits of home duties, they now count || the home as only an important part of their lives,” and with this enlarge- I ment of their field of activities the | inequalities before the law which still obtain “have become injustices.” 1 Differing somewhat from the posi- tion taken by most of its southern colleagues, the Lynchburg News | (democratic) grants that “as a gen- Al proposition” equality in the! ghts. duties, functions and obliga- | tions of citizenship as between the ('}l two sexes are consequent upon the ! conferral of suffrage. and should be | granted.” At the same time the pa- | per regards this attitude as a sup- |}/ { port of a philosophy which is “sound { §/ and logic theoretically only, and || it sugg = cases and circumstances which “would inevitably arise” under i| which_“equality of right would lead || 10 highly undesirable results.” Many || of “the so-c 4 es and in- cqualitic Virginian- Pilot (indgpendent democratic) ex- || plains. “are closely interwoven with || concepts of marriage and reciprocal {1 rights and duties as between husband |} and wife” and to erase these rights, | ictions, in the opinion of the ! uld call for a basic read- fand resi | paper, justment.” This position is supported by the Chicago Tribune (independent repub- lican), which, while predicting that women will secure the desired legis- lation, doubts that it will prove such a “victory.” since it will carry with it as well “the justice of soclal equality.” 1f women “demand equal- || ity in law they must in justice” the || Tribune decla: ceept_equality in {fact. If they want the former they! can obtain it,” but “if they get it they ! will get the latter with it. whether they want it or not” The &rand| | Rapids Herald (republican) also sug- igests that, while an amendment re-{ moving “all discriminations against women” is unassailable, there re- mains a doubt as to the desirability, | from the women's own point of view, | of removing “all discriminations in | favor of women.' The movement, however. as th vannah News (democratic) sees it, is lly.” since “vou cannot make men [and women equal by law any more than you can legislate the sun and moon out of existence.” The Detroit Free Press (independent) has no { quarrel with the objectives of the | |}i amendment, but the “discriminatory {| | conditions™ it is intended to remove | ‘are not constitutional faults” and! the paper contends that since “they i| are practically all matters of state | concern,” the Constitution “needs no | alteration to give the sex what the! woman's party wants.” i i 1 | i Kitchen Parking Space. “If ever T have a chance to build a| { kitchen, I'm going to fiy in the face of the efiiciency experts and have plenty of waste space in it!” sgys a fwoman who has been trying to adapt modern factory methods to house- keeping. “The compact Kitchen is all right up to the point of getting the meal on the table. Then there's no place to park the plates of salad while they're waiting to be served, fand when the table is cleared there's {no place to park some of the dishes while you're rinsing and _stacking the others. Parking space for kitch- 'cn! is iny motto!” The homely truth, which many wwvomen in modern kitchens are dis- {covering, is that the old-fashioned | Workehop had a few advantages after | all. Women who build today are apt to make thei¢ kitchens a little big- iger than those recently constructed. They route them so that the prepara- tion of the meal may be done in a small and compact space, but they leave a little room to breathe in.

Unofficial announcement that one of the chief problems of the unemploy- ment conference will be the “sta- bilizing” of the coal industry will breathe comfort for future winters, if not for this. /The movement for reform comes from Mr. Hoover. It is not a new idea with him. More than a year ago he spoke of the engineering waste now golng on in connection with the mining of coal, and intimated that eventually gov- ernmental co-operation would be nec- ecsary in order that the industry might be associated with such natu- ral by-products as municival gas sup- Iply and lighting. Mr. Hoover now apparently sees a chance for a step {forward in connection with the un- employment situation. There are certain tangible things he can probably accomplish. —But the most important aspect of his activity will be the mere fact that full light is being shed on the coal problem. It, like many of our na: tional problems, continues to a con- siderable degree because of ignorance {and n seeming preference for remain- {ing ignorant.” The great question of storage and the wastefulness of half- time labor which follows from it must be difficult, but neither will dis- appear through a policy of avoidance. They must be faced. Apparently they involve both the producers of coal and the consumers of coal. ' Confer- ence and information will bring rep- resentatives of.the two groups to- gether, The finil systematization of the industry may be far off, but a be- ginning must be made.
