Briand’s Visit. A cable to The Star from Paris, pub- lished Saturday, said: Premier Briand has returned to face a difficult_s! It is felt here fi his work in the se he did not that the French military policies Hughes are in harmony naval i program, ond, because he did not secu ican support, at ieast passive, French policy in Europe. This home apy ment of M. PBriand's visit to Washington is not echoed here. The F h premier did not fail to meet American expectation. As understood, he came to explain the home situation, and did so in a way to elicit many compliments. His triumph as an orator, although his words re- quired interpretation to his audience, was complete. M. Briand could not have hoped to achieve more than this. He certainly could not have hoped to carry back any assurance as to America’s atti- tude, now or later, respecting the French policy in Europe, for there ‘was no authority in the conference to give such an assurance. President Harding and the United States Senate in association control that matter, and there has been no appeal to either about it. It is stated that M. Briand is pre- pared to answer his critics. His an- swer will be read with great interest in this country. He may not pass di- rectly upon the conference and the prospects, but what he shall say will carry the weight of a trained observer who has visited the scene, met the participants, and played a part him- self. He had only words of praise for the business while with us. Filipinos Ask a Hearing. The Philippine legislature is posed to the Wood-Forbes report, and has asked President Harding, by a resolution which has been cabled to ‘Washington, for a hearing on the sub- ject. This is taken from the story from Manil The resolution declares adoption of the mission’s recommendations would affect the future of the Philippines seriously, and refers to a message sent to Congress by President Wilson in 1920, saying the Filipinos had ful- filled the condition precedent to in- dependence, maintenance of a_stable government, and recommended inde- pendence be granted. As the hearing will probably be granted, we shall then be informed as to why the adoption of the report “would affect the future of the Philip- pines seriously.” The recommenda- tion is not agalnst independenge per se, but only against granting it at this time. The reasons are given. The reference to President Wilson's message to Congress in 1920 overlooks the fact that two years before, in the congressional elections, the American | people had repudiated Mr. Wilson's leadership, as later, in that very year —1920—they defeated for President the candidate carrying Mr. Wilson's indorsement. Why, therefore, should the Sixty-seventh Congress at this time follow the past recommendation of a President twice defeated at the polls and now out of office? Mr. Harding has twice shown his appreciation of Gen.. Wood—the first time by sending him to the Philip- pines to make an investigation of con- ditions, and the second time by ap- pointing him governor general—and it seems likely he will be guided by him now in this Philippine busines —_—eae————— The proposition relating to naval ratios offered by Secretary Hughes is simple and lucid. There may be some elight confusion of tongues, but arith- metic is something that is understood by all nations. —_————— The compensation advertised as ewarded some of our current biogra- phers leaves the question open as to whether they are literary men or busi- ness men. ——————— After announcing an intention of trying to do business without money, soviet Russia made a complete failure of an effort to substitute something equally as good. —_————— Unemployment Pickets. A conference of the unemployed has been in session at Detroit for sev- eral days. That is a euphemism for what most people would call a hobo congress. The assemblage, comprising some of the best known professional tramps in this country, has adopted resolutions running the gamut of com- plaint against public and private flls. The usual demand for the release of * Debs and other “political prisoners” has been framed. Before the meeting adjourned a national committee of un- employed was appointed to meet in this city at once to picket the White House and the Capitol in an effort to obtain aid for persons out of work. The committeemen are to start at once for Washington, are perhaps on their way now, being under instruc- tions to get here by the most avail- able means, in freight cars or “on the rods.” 1f people who attended this Detroit assemblage read the papers they must know how little effect picketing has upon official action in Washington. Indeed, the National Capital has grown -so used to placard-bearing squads of men and women- traipsing along in front of public offices and the dwellings of officials that they have ‘become recognized as part of the land- scape. Picketing has never helped -a single cause in the slightest. It will not get a job for anybody. It will not » op- | ure of legislation. Unemployment is diminishing stead- ily in this country. At the peak of the load last summer it wis estimated that there were 6,000,000 men out of work in the United States. The other day Secretary Hoover announced that a late careful survey shows about 4,000,000 men unemployed, a reduction of one third. The tendency con- tinues toward larger employment, to- ward a more general distribution of | wages. Everything possible has been done short of the adoption of a gigan- tic program of public works costing billions, and before any such program could be put into effect—it would take many months to frame the plans and insure the federal fund—the unem- ployment in the country would be re- duced to normal by natural processes. Let the pickets come if they want to see Washington. The trip will prob- ably cost them nothing, and they may s well spend their idle time here as clsewhere. Perhaps they will get a different view of the situation here. No School Survey. Saturday night the Federation of Citizens' 'Associations voted unani- mously not to ask for a survey of the public schools of the District as a pre- liminary to legislation for their bet- terment. This action was taken on the assumption that the chief need of the schools today is an enlargement of the building plant, and theke is no necessity of a survey to demonstrate it. It is plain to all who have observed the public school situation here that nothing but the expenditure of money on a large scale will cure the evils from which the District is suffering at this time. Dribbling appropriations for a small number of buildings now and again will not make up the ar- rears that have accumulated through vears of inattention to the rapid growth of the school population. Adop- tion of platoon systems affd half-day | devices and “work, study and play” plans will not give more room and in- sure greater concentration of teachers’ attention upon the individual puplils. Only more buildings, more rooms, more seats and more teachers will bring the schools up to the desired standard of efficency. A wish was sounded by a member of the joint committee of Congress on the school situation for an expression of the opinion of the Federation of | Citizens' Associations on this matter of a survey. Such an expression has now been given, and it is to be hoped |that no more will be heard at present on the score of surveys, but that the Ijnlnl committee will proceed in the | same spirit that it has already mani- fested to find out just what the schools need in the way of new constructions and will recommend to the House and Senate immediate appropriations for their erection. & It will not be necessary for Con- gress to consult the annual District income return with a view to sparigg as much as possible from the current revenues for schoolhouse building to catch up with the arrears and get a start on the future expansion. For there is a large surplus of District money lying in the Treasury awaiting use, and it can be put to no better use than for school constructions, as part of the fixed plant of the District, {appropriated on the established ratio |of federal and District contributions |for the maintenance of the National Capital. Capitol Hill. Now for real, undisguised politics— politics every working day, “from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same”—politics on this subject, on that and on every subject —politics of the good old husky va- riety. When the special session began there was some pleasant tiik about non-partisanship. The plea. the pledge, was for handsall-round for putting the country on the road to recovery. | None must be for a party. All must be for the state. That sort of thing. It proved to be too sublimated for everyday wear. It was found to be { difficult, if not impossible, to live and | operate on such helghts. So, in a way iand to a degree, the descent was made, jand the session closed upon a familiar political note, with everybody down in the valley again. The regular session opens With i everybody “wise” as to the situation {and resolved to deal with it on party !lines. The republican contention is {that the special session was in the main a success. The democratic con- { tention is that it was “a disgraceful, | a distressing and a disastrous failure.” | From this opening day, therefore, | until the closing day some time next summer, Congress may be expected to keep an eye “peeled” for November, land do much of its business upon a ccnfessed party basis. Both parties want to control the next House, and each will shape its course with that {end in view. And the probability is i that better legislation will result from the open, aggressive operation of the two-party system upon which our af- fairs are intended to be conducted. —————— His devotion to outdoor exercise in- | dicates a willingness on the part of | President Harding to consider the ad- vice of health experts as well as eco- | nomic experts. ——————————— The statement by M. Andre Tardieu that the world is in a state of mental anarchy affords a comforting excuse for the fact that so few people were able to understand Einstein’s theory. —_—————————— It is evidently Bergdoll's desire to qualify as what the late Theodore | Roosevelt would have described not {only as “an undesirable citizen,” but also as “a malefactor of great wealth.” —————————————— “Snowbound.” When John Greenleaf Whittiar wrote his “Snowbound” he drew a pic- ture of an American winter that holds good even to this day. A marvelous development has taken place since then, but a snowfall in a large Amer- ican city today brings the same hu- man reactions that it brought to the good country people of Whitter's childhood. Every person in Washington has a chance to verify this by taking down his copy of Whittier and turning to the familiar old poem. When the Na- tional Capital began to put on its man- cause the adoption of a single meas- | tle of white yesterday, the flakes fll’l-1 ily becoming so numerous that thpy inclined to stick, despite the first fm- pression that they would not do so, many there were who turned to “Snowbound” in curiosity to see how it stood the test of time. It stands it well, indeed. Because the poet looked into his heart and wrote the thoughts he found there, with the background of a typical American winter. The result was a poem that will never die, despite the efforts of some, every now and then, to sneer out of existence the work of our great, simple authors. While the District of Columbia not exactly “snowbound” at this time, vesterday's demonstration was quite enough to make every man, woman and child feel that winter i8 here at last. Back-yard fences became things of beauty; ordinary garages, frosted with a white sugar coating, took on the semblance of fairy huts. The statues of America’s war-time heroes standing in the parks wore becoming neckpieces of white fur, while snowy cockades set off their dark twonze caps. This is as it should be. Washington in winter has a charm all its own, even if the snow does not stick as well as the children might wish. $ Pork Bills. {s there any danger of a revival of pork bills? Fear of such a thing is expressed in several quarters. It grows out of a calculation that the saving of large sums from Army items and Navy items will tempt the legislators on Capitol Hill to make raids on the Treasury in other behalfs. The reasoning is not persuasive. Economy—the real article—is the demand. We have been spending en- tirely too much money. It is impera- tive that we spend less. The proposi- tion is not for a transfer of expendi- tures from one column to another, but the lowering of taxes, which are much heavier than the people have ever been called on before to bear. No, pork bills, properly so-called, are out of it probably for some years to come. A bill carrying an appro- priation of any size now must pass a very searching examination. It must justity itself on every score.

In the nearly two years that he has been stationed here he has made many friends, and hun- dreds of others know him by sight and can distinguish him from afar by his long, swinging stride as he goes on his frequent tramps from the em- basey, on Conecticut avenue, outskirts of the city. Although the ambassador has proved himself to be a most able dip- lomat, capable of carrying on the af- fairs of his government in Washing- ton in admirable fashion and of mak- ing a speech that thq old guard of diplomats would mark with high ap- proval. he has had no previous train- ing along these lines. Although he is a born diplomatist, his career has not been that of a statesman or politician in any way before, but all of his life work until the last¢few vears has been that of a student and instructor. Primarily Sir Auckland is an educator and ranks among the highest in the British Isles, but since his executive ability was displayed so markedly during the war, his government has simply drafted his services. One imagines the life of a professor | t to be a rather humdrum affair, but not so with Sir Auckland. His career has been interesting, varied and at times thrilling. In his early twentles he volunteered and served as a lieu- tenant in the 3d Highland Light In- fantry, fighting the Boers in South Africa. At the outbreak of the world war he joined the Northumberland Fusiliers ‘and saw active service as a major at the front in France for two years. Following an accident re- ceived from a bad fall from his horse he was invalided back to England and was given the position of director of recruiting in the war office in 1916. ‘This was a high post, but the follow- ing year he was given duties that re- quired as much ablility and hard work as any non-military office called for in war service. He was made minis- ter of national service. It was his duty to keep indexed every citizen of the British Isles, co-ordinate the civil population and decide in what ca- pacity each could serve best the country, whether as a soldier or in an economic capacity. During this time he also served as president of the Goose creek, as a personal compliment | local government board and was sent to some popular member of House or Senate, could not easily be obtained in existing circumstances. j 0o parliament by the unionist party) to represent Hampshire. Just after the war he was given the important post of minister of reconstruction, which demanded great foresight and It is instructive to note the differ-) hroad vision. combined with economic ence between the figures of a former day and this. A pork bill totaling twenty-five or thirty million dollars was a big thing of the kind a few vears ago, and led to strenuous con- tests. A bill of that size today, though it would be opposed and probably de- feated, would be regarded as a small venture. The war has introduced some colossal numerals. i When there are still people who cling to the belief that the world is flat, it is not remarkable that a large element of popular attention should fail to see any possibilities in the Ein- stein theory. & The novelist who engages in politi- cal discussion is slightly handicapped in influence by the suspicion that he is a personal press agent for his pub- lishers. * A large quantity of Germany's cur- rency is about as valuable in financial affairs as turtle serum was in sick- ness. \ The ordinary taxpayer finds no great personal encouragement in the suggestions for the cancellation of European obligations on a large scale. } The police point out that a man who would be guilty of the theft of an en- tire automobile would not hesitate to steal a few license tags. i A successful diplomat sometimes finds it necessary to hold his own in conversation without interference with his line of thought. It would be unreasonable to com- plain of a snowstorm that holds off until December is well under way. SHOOTING STARS. BY PHILANDER JOHNSON. § Alternative.

His energy and per- severance in tackling arduous and laborious tasks is astonishing. This characteristic was absolutely essential in carrying on his different war duties or he would never have been able to accomplish so much for his country or fill his difficult positions in such a capable manner.

Re- publican (republican) finds it “inter- esting to note that a more and more critical attitude toward his pronouncements” These reactions, says the Seattle Times (independent), “have been moderate but decisive. Italy is not sympa- thetic; England now indicates, through its foreign affairs secretary, that it is not disposed to look with triendly eyes on the premiers posi- tion; America’s comment has been reserved, but a note of disappoint- ment has crept into some of the semi-official comment” More im- portant, however, as _Interpreted in American papers, is the widening of the breach between England and France as a result of what one writer calls “the public warning from the British secretary to France to watch her step.” In the speech in question Lord Curzon said that “peace will never be achieved if any one power tries to steal a march on another and con- clude an arrangement on its own account,” and then he declared that “the real strength and protection of France does not consist in the strength of her arms * * * it does not consist even in the justice of her cause,” but “in the fact that the conscience of the world and the com- bined physical forces of the world will not tolerate the reappearance in the heart of Europe of a great and dangerous power always rattling its sword in the scabbard as a menace to the peace of the world.” This “re- markable speech,” in the opinion of the Wilkes-Barre Record (republi- can), ‘“‘may regarded as Great Britain's_answer to the speech of Premier Briand,” for, as the Detroit News (independent) says, “it is not conceivable that the British foreign minister would make that kind of speech publicly” unless it comprised “the fixed policy of the British gov- ernment.” g Because this is the natural infer- ence, and also because “the prime ministers sympathy” with the ad- dress can at least be assumed, the Boston Transcript (independent re- publican) finds Curzon’s remarks, “the essence of disagreeableness.”” In ef- fect, he declares for a policy by which Britain is to be “supreme on the seas, Wwith no submarines to harass _her or make her afraid.” while France is “to depend on ‘the consclence of the world’ to defend her frontiers.”” Thus France, the Mo- bile Register (democratic) adds, is taken to task “for following on land the policy which Great Britain has always followed and still follows on the sea.” France {s shell-shocked, re- marks the New Haven Journal-Cour- jer (independent), and “needs nurs- ing, not scolding,” and in the opinion of its neighbor, the Hartforrd Cour- ant (republican) it makes “little dif- ference in the end” whether Lord Curzon’s attack was “malice or tra- ditjonal British stupidity,” he has in either case de: a hard blow to suf- fering France,” which the New York Times (independent democratic) thinks was “not warranted” by the position Briand took before the con- ference. Certainly nothing in his statement of French policy, as the Richmond Timies Dispatch (demo- cratic) interprets it, justifies Curzon’s “gssumption that France deliberately elects to pursue an isolated and in- dividual policy.” But just as many editors saw an element of “talking to Buncombe county” in Briand’'s address, so they find Curzon's remarks open to a sus- picion of “domestic politiés” and pos- sibly even of jealousy, for, the Ithaca Journal News (independent) points out, “the French seem to have beaten the British foreign office in making peace with the Turkish nationalists, and London doesn’t like that” and because Curzon “is just now fighting a diplomatic battle with France over the near east spofls,” the Milwaukee Sentinel (republican) suggests that his warning against Fremoh mili- tarlsm “may turn out to be no more than & backfire intended to force France to yield in, the near east.” In any event, “the met result will to thes is being assumed |, SIR AUCKLAND GEDDES. was captain of his school foot ball | m when he attended George Wat- son's College in Edinburgh and played on the varsity later, when he was studying medicine at the University of Edinburgh. Receiving his M. and Ch. B. degrees in 1903, he went to the continent to continue his medical education, and on his return was made { an assistant professor in anatomy at Edinburgh. Afterward he was pro- | fessor of anatomy at the Royal Col- lege of Surgeons in Dublin and later came to take the same scat at the | McGill University at Montreal. Two.! years ago he was selected to be presi- | dent of McGill, but declined the offer to become ambassador to the United States. i Like several of the British officials here, Sir Auckland married an Amer- ican’ wife, Isabella Gamble Ross, the daughter of W..A. Ross of New York, and she has proved herscif to be a charming and brilliant hostess at the embassy. They have four sons and one daughter, the eldest boy just having entered Rugby. Besides being an inveterate walker, the ambassador is enthusiastic over tennis and plays | a game far above the average. He was at one time an ardent fisherman and big game hunter as well, and at Dark Harbor, Me., where he spends | his summers,' he has lately taken a keen interest in sailing and, with his usual vitality, has gone in’ even for racing smaller boats. When not pur- suing outdoor sports he spends his | leisure moments reading. Since he still keeps up his interest in medical affairs his books are chiefly of a scientific nature. He seldom if ever finds time to go to theaters, although | R he is very fond of music, having.a fine voice and having written songs | in his university days that are still favorites.

However, the Rocky Moun- | tain News (Denver, independent) be- | lieves, such a rift is inevitable be- | cause “French policy and British | policy separated the day after the! armistice,” and “sentiment cannot | hold nations together for long.” Opinion outside France has never’ been quite convinced, the Sioux City Journal (republican) thinks, “that the | French have knocked the chips off their shoulders in regard to their late enemy, and their “fear of a re- habilitated ' Germany” must mneces- sarily be opposed, the Nashville Ban- ner (independent) remarks, to th “business-like” and “commonsense” | view taken by the British.

A Safe Policy. American bankers aro planning to| i H loan $50,000,000 to Argentina. It is announced also that there is under consideration a plan to consolidate, through an American loan, Argen- tina's public debt, which amounts to about $200,000,000. The news of this titude on the part of American financiers is recelved with elation by the Argentine press. which sees in the situation an enhancement of Argen- tine prestige. Another most signifi- cant act is the loaning of $13,000,000 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works to the same government for the purpose of purchasing railroad equipment i this country. This is the beginning | perhaps of an American policy of ex- tending credit to foreign enterprises and of investing money directly in foreign development. This policy will furnish a stable and permanent basis | of commerce, for naturally nations will trade first with those to whom they are under financial obligations or who have a definite financial interest in their products.—Mobile Register (democratic.) v An Opportunity. Hints come from Washington that President Harding, hindered in his economy program by the activities of those whose jobs are in danger, may act decisively. Removal of high officials who are ‘active is suggested | as a possibility. The reorganization by which economies are to be effected involves the elimination of some bu- reaus and the consolidation of others. The obstructionist effort has taken the form of appeals on the part of heads of bureaus and others to con- gressmen from home districts. It President Harding conquers this opposition he will have asserted ex- ecutive leadership practically, em- phatically and popularly. The achieve- ment will rank with the most spec- tacular bits of “personal govern- ment” of Roosevelt or Wilson, The public is skeptical of talk about economy and of frequently an- nounced economies which are never reflected in reduced taxes. If Presi- dent Harding can get results, es- pecially if those results are obtained by herolc methods, it will be regard- el by the masses as a great stroke. Eliminating the politicians and of- ficeholders, the President will have the nation With him in the effort, ! and the more ruthless his methods ! may seem the greater will be the applause—Des Moines Reglster (in- dependent republican).
