America’s proposal for the limita- tion of naval armaments having. been &ccepted “in principle and spirit” by Great Britain, Italy, France and Ja- pan, it now remains only to work out the details in order to translate into reality the world's hope for lessened military burdens. In arriving at those details it is to be assumed that gener- ous consideration will be given the viewpoints of each of the powers con- cerned. and that there will be no stiff- mnecked insistence upon any particular formula. In setting forth the Amer- Ican proposal it is unlikely that Mr. Hughes expected it to be accepted without change, and the representa- tives of the other governments are well within their rights in keeping the way open for modifications. The addresses of the spokesmen for the other powers at yesterday's ses- sion of the conference leave nothing to be desired. four, for instance, give the impression almost of impulsive gererasity, and it is of the highest significance that tie only criticisms of his utterances yet reported come from the British press. Liberal newspapers in England seem to fear that in suggesting any changes at all in the American program the British delegation may have jeopard- ized its success. With sentiment in this country favorable to sympathetic regard for the views of the other powers and sentiment abroad favor- aeble to acceptance of the American view, there appears abundant justi- fication for the declaration of Secre- tary Hughes that the time has come for action. It no longer is a question whether naval armament shall be limit- ed. That being assured, the great body of the people in this and other countries are willing to leave to the experts the working out of details. And it ought now to be possible to work out those details without any suspicion arising as to the entire good faith of any participating power; for great as is the achievement in an agreement that armaments shall be limited, far greater still is the realiza- tion to which the nations have been suddenly brought that no one of them has designs against another. In this new light of international confidence the solution of Pacific and far eastern problems ought to offer no insuperable difficulties, tangled and complex though they may be. The Liberty Party. The liberty party—the new party— 1s girding for the fray. State conven- tions to select delegates to a national convention to be held next spring are soon to be called, and arrangements are afoot to put candidates in the field for the Sixty-eighth Congress. While the east is not to be neglected, special play is to be made for the west and the northwest. The idea seems to be that the greatest dissatis- faction with the situation as it now stands either exists or can be created in those sections. In Wisconsin, Min- nesota, Montana, Idaho, Colorado, North Dakota and Nebraska repre-| sentatives of the new party are now | busy explaining its purposes and recommending it for support. The argument—or rather the asser- tion—is that the two old parties are essentially the same; that they fight sham battles; that neither when suc- cessful redeems its promises; that capital has everything and labor noth- fng to expect from either republican or democratic control; that the thing to do is to join the new party and force a new deal. Then the plain peo- ple will come into their own, and real | prosperity will descend upon the country. These men seem not to be taking into account either the armament con- ference, or what effect the legislation the present Congress is putting on the ®ooks may have on the situation be- @ere next year's campaigns open. And yet if the work of the conference meets with approval, and the new Jegislation works well, the situation will be anything but inviting for a mew party offering a panacea for “1 Smmal woes. ———— The rapidity with which the Wash- fmgton conference proceeded to busi- ®ess may mean more than a saving «f days, weeks or months. To civiliza- @pn it may mean a saving of cen- Wigtes. —_————————— Sapond two or three chapters.

The estimated ex- ditures submitted to the secretary finance total $42,000,000, while the imated revenue for next year is tly under ¢34,000,000. According eads of departments it will be im- ible to reduce the expengitures an amount within the revenues, the only remedy for the situation |l be for the legislature to provide itional revenue by increased taxa- s trouble is universal. Estimates P Where are high. Revenues every- e low. That is to say, while, 8 & time so full of interest as the it is a bold biographer who @helongs his political reminiscences 4P @re much above the marks the marks of these post-war days. How is the matter to be remedied? An answer cames swiftly. Reduce the estimates, Bring them within the limits of the revenues. Economy is not a mere cry, but a necessity. Liv- ing beyond one’s income, whether the 3 |act of a government or an individual, . | is worse than folly. But a pruning-knife needs to be handled with great care. An indis- criminate lopping-off might work great harm. There is nb economy in deny- ing proper support'to & govermment, and at this time post-war support can- not be safely calculated upon pre-war figures. The war's changes have been great, and cannot be undone. Taxes are never welcome, and in- creased taxation always arouses warm 20c| - protest. And yet there are times when taxes must be increased in the imter- est of true economy. A skimped gov- ernment is often an inefficient govern- ment, and the utmost efficiency in gov- ernment is now of the highest im- portance. —_———————— An Anti-Speeding- Plan. Capt. Klotz, traffic engineer of the Public Utilities Commission, proposes a novel and it may be a most effective way to curb speeding in the District. His plan is that when & speeder is caught by a traffic policeman the rule- breaker shall be compelled to draw up to the curb and to remain there under guard for fifteen minutes. This is veritably making the punishment fit the crime. The speeder is in a hurry to get somewhere. Make him late. Then perhaps he will not be in such & hurry‘heraaner. Capt. Klotz's plan is based on the old adage of more haste less apeed, and if he can drive that truth home to the folks who are prone to “step on the gas” he may go further toward solving the dangerous speed problem than the now ocongested ‘The words of Mr. Bal-|court. ‘Working on the same line of rea- soning, Capt. Klotz suggests that breakers of the parking rules might be punished effectively by locking all machineg caught improperty placed in the streets so that their owners will have to go to the nearest police sta- tion to get them released. This would entail an expenditure for locks, but not many would be needed. A few cases of locked cars would effectively arrest public attention to the neces- sity of rule observance. Both of these suggestions are worth consideration. The speeding menace is serious enough to warrant a little more drastic corrective measures than the annoyance and humiliation of & penaity that is somewhat suggestive ®f that of the small schoolboy who is made to stand in a corner. Of course, ‘with this as with all other rules for punishing speeding, it is first neces- sary to catch the speeder. That is up to the traffic police in any case, what- ever happens. ————— Caring for Children. The contest over the bill providing for physical examination of children brought before the Juvenile Court of the District directs attention to the increase of interest which govern- meat is taking in the physcial welfare of children and adults. More and more the state takes the position of parent or guardian to a child and this attitude has been made aimost necessary by the number of children who suffer from neglect because of the ignorance, indifference or poverty of parents. In the schools government authori- ties are no longer content that chjl- dren shall do the best they can with their textbooks. Teeth, eyes, ears, throat and the rest of the body are looked after. So many things go wrong with the human machine and so many of them can be set right if the proper measures are applied in time! The healthy child does not al- ways make a better student than the diseased child, but he generally does, and outside the matter of standing in studies, the diseased or underfed voung American is entitled to the best care the state can give him, both on humane and economic grounds. The health departments of states and cities are reaching out in their efforts to prevent and heal disease and are gradually bringing a greater number of children and grown-ups to the point of physical examination that men who know most about the cure of ailments may determine what if anything is wrong and what remedy to appily. ——————————— Secretary Hughes manages to make his statements 50 clear as to leave little apprehension that they will be misconstrued in any point in the course of interpretation in other lan- guages. ————————————— It is always assumed that Lenin’s utterances will have the indorsement of Trotsky, who has been gradually reduced to the status of & “me too” politician. — The “small navy” is now a subject of as much enthusiasm as the “big navy” used to be. The dove of peace may yet be per- mitted to stop cooing and induige in a mild chuckle. The Royal Exiles. During the interesting happenings hére at’ Washington, heginning with the return of the unknown soldier's body and its burial at Arlington and the opening of the erms conference with Mr. Hughes' startling proposal of real reduction and limitation, at- tention has been somewhat distracted from other maatters. For instance, ‘while these things have been going on former Emperor Charles of Austria- Hungary and his consort Zita have been quietly placed on board & Brit- ish man-of-war and started on the ‘way to exile on the Island of Madeira. True, interest in Charles waned some- rious{ what when his restoratios venture ended in capture. But still he has re- mained a figure of some note. Ex- monarchs are always diverting, how- ever hopeless their cause. In Charles’ case exile will not be an altogther dis- tressing experience. eira is a land ot brightness and plenty. It is large enough to afford abundant exercise. It is well supplied with comforts. It has a variety of scenery. It has an agreeable soclety. Living is said to be cheap there, even now. And, more- over, it is not very far away from the mainlapd. It is certainly no St. of pre-war days, they are m&uul l | | ! THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. Helena. Some might even prefer it to ‘Doarn in Holland. But to & disappoint- ed exiled monarch any place but the land of his hepe is & prison. Charles is young and his wife is keenly am- bitlous. There are hints that Charles ‘would perhaps be happler in Madeira if Zita were left back in Europe. His late expedition inte Humgary is at- tributed to her prompting. However that may be, the royal exiles will now take up their residence on the island, 'with & limited income, and it remains to be seen whether they will be wise Editorial Digest Col. Harvey Speaks Again! Ambassador Harvey, engaged in “dispelling illusions,” in a recest ndll dress in Liverpool seems also to have: disturbed the “illusion” fn the minds ©of & number of American editors that foreign policies are promulgated by the Department of State at Wash- ington. In this address, the New York Times (independent demo-, cratic) says, the ambassador “fell enough to accept their situation philo-|with the zea? of a country editor at- Sophically with resignation or will be 8o foolish as to plot and scheme for restoration. - Big and Bigger Stars. It seems a little strange that just as the nations of the world are trying to find & way to reduce their armaments the scientists are learning of the existence of bigger things in the uni- wverse than have hitherto been known or suspected. Some time ago the fact was announced that'a powerful new reflecting telescope had permitted the measurement of a star in the constel- lation of Orion called Betelgeuse, the diameter of which was stated to be about 300,000,000 miles. Now it is stated that the existence of even greater stars has been ascertained. One of these is known to be Antares in the constellation of Scorpio, the exact size of which has not been de- termined, according to an announce- ment made at the meeting of the Na- tional Academy of Sciences in Chicago. And still other stars greater than these two are yet to be measured. Apparently this little solar system in which we have our orbit is going to be completely overshadowed by the |h immensities that are being discovered in the outer space. There is apparent- 1y no limitation of measurements. The giant reflector telescope on Mount Wilson is the greatest in existence now. But there is no assurance that it will so remain. In a very few years the size of astronomical instruments has doubled. Instrument makers will not admit that the end has been reached. Moreover, these recent meas- urements of the big,st=rs in the far beyond are due to the invention of a new instrument. And still other in- ventions may be expected. The fact is that astronomical science, like all other physical sciences, is developing. It is summoning to its aid the me- chanical genius that has been so re- markably evolved in recent years. It would be idle to suggest that there is any bar to discovery. After all, when these almost unthinkable masses in the great vold we know as the heavens are measured and analyzed and identified there will remain still the unsolved mystery of what they are and how they are maintained in that exactness of relationship that has never failed to puzzie man. - ———pe—————— A New York producing manager has been convicted of offering on the theatrical stage what the judge de- scribes as deliberately and flagrantly immoral. The court goes on Wwith an emphasis that indicates the possibility that the arrest in this case will prove to be no idle advertisement. ———————e Deadly gases have attained such possibilities of wholesale human de- struction that the people of the world, however fearless of open and honor- able combat, are inclined to draw the line at a total annihilation of the hu- man race. ———————— There is so much good newg avail- able for transmission from Washing- ton that Secretary Denby is naturally anxious to co-operate with Postmaster General Hays to keep the mails work- ing punctually. Fear of entangling elliances does not prevent candid and cordial agree- ment for the purpose of avoiding eco- nomic entanglements. ————— Lenin might advance the interests ot the soviet Russian government by offering to resign and permit a re- organization. ———teeee Soviet Russia cannot recover from an impression that her debts are the leading consideration in world affairs. —t e Dissrmament would enable men to work for a living, instead of for mu- tual destruction. ———————— SHOOTING STARS. BY PHILANDER JOHNSON. The Ostrich. The ostrich is a funny bird, As all of us have often heard. He eats 'most everything he sees And with him nothing disagrees. He takes what comes. He never knows ‘Which sauce with any viand goes; He's like the men of mental greed Who read—but don’t care what they |ence at Washington will producd not read.

Coldly Considered. “Why do you think your men’s wages ought to be reduced?” “Because,” said Mr. Dustin Stax, “abundant funds necessarily prompt a desire for abundant leisure in order to enjoy them. What we need at pres- ent is more work and not more golf.” Jud Tunkins says he never yet saw a man who seemed favorable to war who wasn't beyond the draft age or physically exempt. A Matter of Contrast. ‘When -Folly has been romping free And flaunting everywhere, Commonsense appears to be A stroke of genius rare! ‘ ‘The Song of Slumber. “What I object to about s musl- clan,” said Farmer Corntossel, ““is that he's liable to be so blame inconsist- ent.” “But your boy Josh aspires to be & musician?” “Josh is an illustration of my idea. Since I bought him a new bugle he keeps the family awake all night practicing ‘taps.’ ” i “Trouble,” - said Uncle Eben, “ig mighty obligin’. Any time you goes| The Senate wants a lookin’ for it you's purty sure to find{the ceedings of th ftlookin' fohyour | - “Vneedle.—Pitsbur | ment—New York Herold (German, tacking an effete aristocrat of Eu- rope” upon the hope expressed by Lord Denby, former British ambassa- | dor to France, that there wouid “soine day” be an alliance of Great Britai: France and the United States, “safeguard the peace of the world.” Regrotting that it seems to be his “unhappy lot to dispel illusions re- specting the attitude of the United States,” the American envoy answerr ed Lord Denby by declaring that hope “futile” and an “utter impossibility.” Now that portien of the American press which regards Col. Harvey none too. highly at best wants to kmow whether he is speaking authoritative- 1y as a representative of the adminis- tration, or is indulging in what the Norfolk Virginian-Pilot (independent democratic) calls “another attack of splenetic personal prejudice masque- rading as the viewpoint of the United States.” However, Col. Harvey has the assurance of a considerable number of editors that whether or not he is accurately reflecting administration policies, he is entirely right in his interpretation of American sentiment in the matter of European alliances. The statement which Ambassador Harvey made at Liverpool is ‘*‘more striking in one respect than his out- burst before the Pilgrim Society some months ago,” the Wilmington (N. (‘,)| Star (democratic) finds, for “he has now undertaken to speak, not merely for the present American administra- tion, but for all American administra tions—past, present and future’’—or, a8 the Butte Miner (democretic) puts it. e has taken it upon himself “to define this nation’s policy for all future time,” and that, the Durham (N. C.) Sun (in- dependent) remarks, “is a big sweep to windward.” ‘What Mr. Harvey thinks or says on the subject of “alliances” is not of “great consequence,” in the opinion of the New Yerk Tribune (republican), but “it 18 of consequence to have knowledge of who, if anybody, authorized the am- bassador to define and declare the atti- tude of America.”” Manifestly, the Day- ton News (democratic) thinks, “Harvey desires it to be publicly known that me[ Hinternational policies of the present ad- ministration are in his Keeping.” and although it does not share the impres- sion, the New Haven Journal-Courier (lndw-n? admits that “it will not be unnatura{ for the average man to conclude that he is stating attitudes of mind_and _positions of politics which President Harding would like to have known, but does not care to risk the ex- pression of.” While the Birmingham Age-Herald (independent democratic) has no doubt that *he was speaking for the Harding administration,” the Chi- cago Tribune (independent republican) is equally sure that his speech was “his own inspiration rather than that of the State Department or the White House.” In any event, the Scranton Times (democratic) thinks that ‘“under the circumstances, with the great states- men of Europe hurrying to this country to engage in a conference * ¢ * it was a most undiplomatic speech. It threw cold water on all the hopes of the rulers of the allied governments.” According to Harvey's interpretation of George Washington's stand against “entangling alliances” the American people “have been hamstrung.” says the Newark News (independent); “the great Washington built an irremovable barrier across their path. condemning them to follow a course of isolation to the end of their days, whatever the cost might be to them and to the world.” But the world “do move." the Charles- ton News and Courier (democratic) ob- serves, and “this country has adopted many policies of which George Wash- ington would not have approved,” and, the paper continues, it is not *a flat- tering estimate of our intelligence” to declare that “the American people will never consent to an alliance, no matter how desirable it might be.” That amounts to telling us “that we are a 1ot of stupid and hidebound provincials 80 enslaved by prejudice as to be proof against reason and common sense.’” On the contrary, the Philadelphia Public Ledger (independent) _asserts. lightened public opinion” recognizes as “inevitable” that ‘‘we establish some sort of contact with the other nations of the earth. The only question is as to what kind it shall be.” Certainly Mr. Harvey “did not mean that hope of American and British co- operation for world peace was futile,” the Kansas City Star (independent) as- serts. *What is futile is merely the ex- pectation that such co-operation can be brought about by a treaty of alliance,” end our ambassador was trving to im- press upon the British ¥that practical statesmanship would be betier em- iployed in trying to bring about, through less formal sanctions, a’ working agree- m&;&t that would produce results as The Farmer an Optimist. When we compare our conditions { with those of European countries we must be thankful that they are as favorable as they are. When we read of the horrible conditions that have been imposed upon Europe for an indefinite period and we recall the temporary sufferings and hardships which we have suffered as a nlulti | of the war, we can easily comprehend Why such masses of working people of the entire world try to get into the land of opportunity, the United States of America. And when we consider the firm, fine spirit of the American farmer, which is'not less 'nppnrent in these trying days of re- | onstruction than it was during the i terrible days of the most disastrous | world war, we are contented by the conviction that America has nothing to fear from the present or future economic or social conditions. But the American farmer, as well as the American workingman, from now on must be protected and-safeguarded in his rights—Hospodar (Czecho- slovak, democratic), Omaha. Armaments and Disarmament. The so-called disarmament confer- so much a disarmament of the nations as an arming for the next great con- flicts, and this arming is to be under- stood not as a procuring of new weapons, but as a spiritual arming— a preparation for what may come. It must be noted that all news dis- patches agree that among the sub- jects to be discussed the domination ; of the Pacific ocean will play an im- portant part. The United States will try to find out what Japan intends to do with regard to China and Siberia. On the answer to that question will depend the readiness of the American government to reduce armament. On the other hand, Japan desires to ob- | tain a clear view of how far she may o in China and Siberia without hav- ! Foe fo fear the armed intervention of ! the United States. Armament and dis- | armament will depend on this point, ! and _the question is complicated by i England as the power which had a treaty with Japan, but pretends to be tae closest friend of the United States. 1t through the conference the United States can be made to bell that Japan can be peacefully induced to ive up her Asiatic aims, and. if gwn.n helieves that she can keep the| United States out of Asia by peaceful | ways, a compromise will be made in the form of an Anglo-Japanese-Amer- fcan agreement. In that case we would also obtain a small naucu‘;‘p in naval armament in Japan and this country.
