Dally only.. v l; American Stioktoitivness. “If & task {s once begun, never leave 1t till it’s done” is & motto which has been dinned into the heads of count- less American schoolboys. Byeand-bye the schoolboys grow to manhood and, remembering the motto, they stick to their jobs and achieve results which are the despair of grown-up school- boys of less-mottoed lands. Some of the schoolboys in time be- come statesmen—secretaries of state, senators and the like—and mayhap they get appointed delegates to con- ferences on the limitation of arma- ment and far eastern questions. The motto-begot way of doing things by that time has become a habit, and to them “done” does not mean half done or two-thirds done or anything short of full accomplishment. It simply does not enter into their calculations that they could return to whomsoever it was tbat had given them the job to do and offer any satisfactory explanation as to why a part of it had been left un- done. Accepting as a matter of course that sticktoitiveness shall be their own rule of conduct, they are impelled, with géntle and courteous firmness, to in- sist that others whose collaboration 1s necessary to accomplishment of the Job shall also stick. If those others happen to be the invited guests of the stickers, it may be that at the time they will be mildly resentful of the pressure which keeps them to their tasks; but this resentment will not be lasting. When the job finally is done, and done right, they will share equally in the credit and in the satisfaction ‘which comes to every doer, whether in knickerbockers or frock coat, in the knowledge that the thing he has done is done well. So the distinguished gentlemen from other lands who are attending the conference now in session in Wash- ington are asked to bide yet a while and round out the great undertaking in which they have been engaged. We are by no means wearied of their com- pany, and we fervently hope that our hospitality has not grown irksome. ‘When the time comes that they must depart we want them to go with the most pleasant and gratifying recol- lections of their stay with us, and we feel very sure their recollections will be more pleasant and more gratifying if thete is embodied in them the satis- fying sense of & 100 per cent achieve- ment. The President and Harmdny. ‘The order of business on Capitol Hill is not so important as the abllity of the responsible rarty there to do busi- ness. Once the republican divisions are healed, the rest should be easy. Today, at practically the beginning of the session, Congress is in a de- THE No part of the country is now im-|!lessncss? mune. Train schedules and foad use have increased. The chances of a col- lision are multiplying. There is no place in the country that can be called safe. Right outside of Washington is one of the most dangerous of grade cross- ings, at Hyattsville, where the Balti- more boulevard crosses the Baltimore and Ohio track at an angle, and in such conditions that it is difficult for any road user to see whether a train is approaching. There are so-called safety gates at this crossing, but, as with all other such devices, they are dependent upon human agency for eficiency. And even when they are cperated promptly and in good season, and when they are visible as barviers M'al night as well as by day, it is still possible for a recklessly operated mo- tor, or for one temporarily out of con- trol, to break through them and reach the tracks and perhaps meet a train | there. All such devices as gates and flag- men and bells are only makeshifts, worth only so much as in the degree that they are heeded. It should be physically impossible to get on the tracks. Each state, especlally those with close population and frequented roads, should proceed without waiting for the federal government to compel the abolition of all these death traps by the substitution of undercuts and overpasses. This is more important | *han the development of the highway «,ste.ns. Good roads are really dan- gerous rather than helps if they are frequently intersected with.tracks at grade. Keep thie Dome Lighted! As a feature of the official illumina- tions at the opening of the conference on limitation of armament the dome of the Capitol was lighted by a battery of | powerful lamps placed on the roof of the building, producing a most artistic and striking effect. This has been con- tinued during the conference, and it is understood it will remain until the final adjournment. The question arises why this should not be a permanent feature. The cost cannot be very great, merely that for the current necessary to maintain the lamps and the occasional renewal of the lamps themselves. Whatever the cost, how- ever, the government would be justi- filed in maintaining this remarkable spectacle.. The dome of the Capitol is recog- nized as one of the most beautiful of all architectural creations. It has been pronounced the most perfect deme in the world. In conjunction with the building it forms an inspir- ing featyre of the capital landscape. Seen from a distance it means Wash- ington, just as the dome of St. Peter's means Rome, or the dome of St. Paul's means London, or the dome of the Pantheon means Paris. But it is su- perior to all of these in size and nobil- ity of line. As the dome means Washington. and Washington means the American republic, it should be always visible by night as well as by day. It should never be out of sight. This special il- lumination of it brings it into view in its most significant aspect after dark- ness has fallen. If for a few thousand dollars a year—it cannot be a large sum—this can be effected, so that the dome may be always in evidence, dl- ways a tangible presence in the sky, surely the expenditure should not be grudged, but should be gladly author- ized by Congress, over whose delibera- tions this inspiring structure grandly rises. The Political Organ. , It is said of the newspaper which has just made its appearance in Paris under the editorship of M. Andre Tar- 1s this charge just? Is it true that the bootleggers are having everything their own way? That they are ‘“‘get- ing away with it” in & romp? ‘That “hootch” flows freely, undisguised and unatrald? Take this from Minneapolis: Two hundred cocoanuts which con- tained not their own natural milk, but a pint each of strong Jamaica rum, were selzed by federal agents today at a Minneapolis railroad station. A cork Plus, coming out of one of the cocoanuts ed to the discovery of the rum by an agent who was at the station. An eye of each cocoanut had been bored out, the nut filled and a burnt cork stopper placed in the hole. And then take this from New York: To Albert Wheeler, who works at one of the large fish markets in New York city, belongs the distinction of having discovered a new species of fish. They are stuffed with quarts of whisky. He made this discovery while sorting a load of cod from New England. ~Prohi- bition agents are investigajing this new system of bootlegging. Necessity is the mother of inven- tion, and these clever. and amusing inventions show & considerable neces- sity. When cocoanuts and codfish are drafted to do their bit toward making America as wet a8 the Atlantic ocean we have a certificate that the author- ities are anything but asleep or lan- guid in the discharge of their dutles. The thing to do—and Congress is showing the right disposition—is to give the authorities all proper support in the chase of an outlawed traffic. It is going to be a long and a hot chase, but a successful one if public {sentiment does not weaken. 5 Reorganizing in Ireland. The prospect of a peaceful accept- ance of the new regime in Ireland is brightened by the final action of the dail efreann yesterday on the eve of the adjounment until February 14. A new cabinet, headed by Arthur Grifith as president of the dail, was elected. De Valera left the assembly, followed by his adherents, last-ditch advocates of a republic with full independence, but later they returned, and when ad- journment was had the parliamentary ranks were unbroken. In the five weeks of recess it is probable that the disposition of the Irish people to accept the new organization will be so plainly manifested that the radical element will not venture to vote in a persistent effort to set up a republic in deflance of the now ratified treaty. There is no occasion for wonder at the manifestations of extremism which have marked the proceedings at Dub- lin recently. The fight for complete separation has been & persistent and bitter one. The ideal of a wholly free Ireland has been ardently held for generations. It is hard to yield. The treaty of London offers a substantial measure of independence, as great, in- deed, as that enjoyed by the people of Canada and those of Australia. The rational view has been taken by the majority of the dail, representative of the people. The dail was_ elected in conditions when it might be regarded as expressive of south Ireland’s wish to be wholly free and separate from England. If that body indorses the treaty with its plan for a free state on a dominion basis it must follow that a new parliament chosen under the terms of the treaty as part of the ad- ministrative government of. Ireland will even more strongly support this new plan, which carries with it the possibility of a more prosperous and happy Ireland than history has ever known before. ——————— Only those who believed that na- tions could attain grace as quickly at a conference as individuals do at a revival meeting expected that a com- plete system of world disarmament ‘would be arranged for. —_———— Irish statesmen, like those of other pressing condition. There seems to|dieu, with M. Clemenceau as a 80rt|jands, may agree perfectly as to the be no agreement about anything. Con- tradictory opinions are expressed on nearly every subject on the card. This cs1dition, well known, has a depressing effect on the country and on the administration. If not relieved, it must inevitably result in the defeat of the republicans next November, and if that takes place the party's prospects for 192¢ will become very much clouded. The President is doing all he can to improve the situation. The confer- ences he is holding with senators and represefitatives and with party leaders outside of Congress are substantial contributions toward harmony. But the President alone cannot remedy the matter. He must have assistance. He must be met at least half way by those who are in com- mission. as he is, to start the country on the way to prosperity again. It is a long, long way—a sort of Tipperary ‘way—and the start should not be un- duly delayed. ‘The conferences the President h‘-flleue of presiding genius-in-chief: Unlike the majority of avowedly po- litical organs, this one looks like a real newspaper in every sense, calculated to interest a_majority of the people inde- pendent of its political significance and views. During the war M. Tardieu spent 2 good deal of time in America, assist- ing in French war affairs on this side the water. Did he improve the op- portunity to study American journal- ism? And shall we see him now graft American features on the French stem? . It might be a good thing. The po- litical organ, once a power in this country, has all but disappeared from the centers where journalism in Its best and most influential estate flour- ishes. In its place is established a journalism which, while giving to party matters due prominence and stout support, reserves the right to criticise and object. and freely exer- cises it. The results are a more readable press and a wider diffusion of knowl- of covernmental questions insugyrated will be continued, and in|among the people. that way sentiment sounded all up| and down the congressional line. As ‘The Star described the situation a short time ago, it is harmony or hades. i ——— R ——— Pennsylvania has contributed to the United States Senate figures of such impressive proportions that the man ‘who undertakes, in the language of the old metaphor, “to fill their shoes” necessarily undertakes a conspicuous gesponsibility.

Heavy fog caused the latest whole- &ale grade-croesing accident, which, at Van Wert, Ohio, caused the death of four children and the serious injury of seventeen others. They were occu- pants of a bus and were on their way to school. The driver could not see or hear the approaching train, and he of this evil, but it is going to be & slow prooess.

Chasing the Wets. Here and there the authorities are under fire on a charge that they are lacking in vigilance in the enforce- ment of the prohibition law; that the bootleggers are finding them “easy.” and having & good and profitable time in ministering to the desires of a thirsty public.

Philippe Berthelot RANCE has had to finish out the conference without the services of a secretary-gen- eral, owing to the fact that Philippe Berthelot, who filled that office for the first month of the sit- tings, was compelled to return to his native country. M. Berthelot was, uitll recently, also political di- rector of the Frech foreign office, but resigned from that important post late In December. Since his depart- ure no successor has been appointed, the work having been divided among other members of the delegation. M. Berthelot's enemies tried to make political capital against him through a crisis in the affairs of the Indus- ial k of China, with branches and Peking, of which h elder brother was president. Rather than involve the Briand party in a disagreeable political squabble, he resigned. Philippe Berthelot's father was a celebrated scientist, specializing in commercial chemistry. He was also minister of. forelgn affairs, and his remains were Interred in the Pan- theon. Tre family is a Parisian one and has given France a number of distinguished savants. The son was educated at the University of Paris, where his Interests centered largely in philosophy and literature. Next he made an extended journey in Asia, a8 the result of which a keen interest in foreign affairs arose, with a con- sequent entry Into diplomatic life. By the time he was thirty years of age M. Berthelot was participating in practically every event of importance concerning France's forelgn affairs. keen was his interest, so extended his information and so powerful and successful his work, that he became the heart and soul of the Qual d'O: the French foreign office styled. He was the confiden- tial collaborator of a majority of the premiers and ministers of foreign a! fairs of his time, including Ms. Bo Leon Bourgeois, Pinchon, Clem u, Millerand and Briand, the latter being his warm personal friend and admirer. During the world war-his role was one of great responsibility. One even- Ing in July, 1914, he was alone at the Qual @'Orsay when he received word of the ominous ultimatum from Aus- tria to Serbia. The hour for staging “der tag” had been well chosen by the Germans. Both the premier and the minister of foreign affairs were traveling in Russia, distant a journey of days. M. Berthelot. with ad- mirable calmness and keen foresight, took all the steps called for by the situation. He did his best to avoid in- at the same dignity of en evitable war without, time, jeopardizing the France. During the long campaign of four years he kept in the closest possible touch with the army chiefs, in order that he might most advantageously Restraining Submarine Warfare. By adopting unanimously the Root provisions for regulating submarine activities in time of war the Wash- ington conference has, in the opinion of the New York Tribune (repub- lican) met successfully “thé acid test of its intentions.” Briefly, the Root resolution reiterates the existing law of nations with respect to the use of submarines as commerce destroyers, and then declares that because of “the practical impossibility of using submarines as commerce destroyers” without violating that law, a pro- hibition of such use of underse aeraft “shall be universally acc.pted.” Americans, the Tribune holds, “are not disposed to argue the question of whether or not any vessel, whether of the surface or beneath it, may le- gally sink merchant vessels without warning or without placing crew and passengers in safety. This country passed on this question when it en- tered the war.” And by concurring in the American viewpoint the confer- ence, the Philadelphia Bulietin (inde- pendent republican) thinks, has done no more than tcivilization could ex- pect from any body of international representatives.” ut while conceding that the “hu- manizing” of the submarine is worth striving for as a doctrine, a large ?lrl of American editorial opinion is ar from satisfled with it as a means The very of stopping “frightfulnes: fact that the resolution tement of a code that was ruth- y violated when put to the test is ufficient measure of its futility,” the Pittsburgh Dispatch (inde- pendent) ‘expresses It. However, lacking the will or the ability to abolish the submarine alto- gether, the conference has found the way of “reducing it to an absurdity,” the New Haven Register' (Independ. ent) belleves, by imposing conditions “which will make it a mighty poor urance risk in the first place, and a thing to ridicule providing it sur- vives.” “All that it is possible to do, In view of the refusal of nations ostracize the ‘“undersea assassin the Christian Science Monitor (Bos- ton, independent) says, is to take those nations “at their word when they say they desire to use them simply as a weapon of defense, and 80 to leave those who dare to depart from any undertaking they may en- ter into to the execration of hu- manity.” As a matter of fact, the regulations under which they will operate render them worthless in time of war, for it is generally ad- mitted, according to the New York Times (independent democratic) that when acting as an aggressor “sub-. marines cannot comply with these requirements.” Certainly one that “played the game according to the Root rules would catch very few merchantmen,” the Cleveland Plain Dealer (independent democratic) pre- dicts, “and would be safely exclud from the fleld of ‘frightfulness’.” This paper contends' that “the sub- marine, should Di ¢°mrleuly 2bo] ished, but if abolition is {mposs! it cannot be amiss to curb its tivities and to outlaw definitely f most_vicious potentialities.” To th! the Boston ‘Transcript (independe: republican) replies that the nature of these prohibitions is such as “to con- stitute, in effect, an abolition,” for, as the Brooklyn Eagle (independent democratic) says, “it will mean that while submarine building may con- tinue on a large scale, the ships themselves cannot be effectively used by any nation . without going even further than Germany did in out- raging humanity.” But the law governing this sea weapon “was perfectly clear when the world war began,” the Charles- ton (8.

Both Marshals Joffre and Foch, successive generalissimos, came to esteem him greatly. The promoters of American partici- pation in the war found in M. Berthe- lot one of the most ardent and con- fident coworkers. Together with M. Briand he followed with interest and hope the exchanges of notes and other negotiations with the Washing- ton government which preceded the entry of the United States. M. Berthelot has the distinction, al most certainly unique among lomats, of having taken part in al the interallied conferences and all th successive negotiations for war and for peace since 1914. Should he some day decide to publish his memoirs, which, unfortunately, i& said to be un- | likely, it is certain that these would | abound in the most curious revela- tions and plquant anecdotes. Although M. Berthelot is fifty-five veare old, he does not look it, Under- neath his rather reserved manner is the ability quickly to win those with whom he comes in contact by the warmth of his intellect and of his character. Notwithstanding the de- msnds made on his time by his long diplomatic service, he has never re- linquished a continued interest in art and literature. The majority of his friends belong to the artistic world. His special hobby is far eastern art. of which he is both a connoisseur and a collector. He possesses more dec- o! ons and orders than he can ever wear on any one single occasion. He is married and speaks English. | Lynchburg (Va.)

And is not the Czech inventor, Nicola | Tesla, the “first electrician” in the United States? The great difference between the! “old” and the “new” immigration is; that while the first has intrenched itself in the political life of the coun- | | try, the new immigrants, despite their importance as a producing power, have remained outside American po- litical life. ‘There are but a few foreign born in Congress.
