ruling is correct. This three-months-old child is in “‘excess” of the quota. Yet how nonsensical! Restriction of immigration is de- sirable, is indeed necessary. As the bill for it passed the House it was a good measure, giving admission to relatives of certain degrees of those who are already in this country. The percentage quota proposition was sub’ stituted in the Senate and became the governing principle of the law. It has worked hardship from the beginning. It put a premium on priority. It stimulated a grand rush, and in that rush many came who should never kave started, and doubtless many were admitted who should never have been allowed:to enter. Some heartrending stories have been told of the inequities of the percentage system. Some shockingly sad cases have come to light. Families have been divided, some members being ad- mitted and some rejected. But it was hardly thought it would come to the point of separating a mother and her infant. Perhaps it is well that this case has occurred. It may stimulate the amendment of the law and the es- tablishment of a sensible basls of re- striction that will protect this country from undesirable and surplus inflow without cruelty or discrimination.

As the conference on the limitation of armament and far eastern ques- tions enters its tenth week it enters also upon a phase of settlemerfts which will largely determine the measure of its success. Much of what has gone before has led up to and is contingent upon adjustments which are now in hand. The present week is likely to disclose whether the job un- dertaken will be turned over as a fin- ished one or whether it will be a rec- ord of only partial achievement. Shantung has the stage this week, and the reported Chinese view of “hope without optimism” that its tangles will be straightened out will center interest on that problem. That both the Chinese and the Japanese realize the importance of coming to an agreement has been demonstrated, and they both know that only by mu- tual concessions can there be agree- ment. Japan finds herself in position where her attitude in the Shantung matter is taken by the world as the test of her good faith, and the value of other agreements arrived at will be ‘weighed by the Shantung outcome. Japan’'s general course in the Wash- ington conference, though at times her position has been difficult, has in- measurably strengthened her in the 8ood opinion of the world. It would be @ cause for unbounded regret should she destroy this better opinion by in- sisting upon holding on to more in Shantung than the world believes to be just and right. No service to the cause of world peace is rendered at this stage of the conference by harsh criticism. It is natural and proper that the repre- sentatives of each nation in the con- ference will strive to serve their own national interests, and it is only by |istration, infusing a spirit of co-opera- generous understanding of the fact|tion and a zealous desire to give the that national interests must and will | people the best in the way of mail be served that negotiations can be|transport on the part of all the forwarded.

There is something sad, yet some- thing encouraging, in the departure of Mr. Hays from public service. The motion picture industry will gain and the government will lose by this change. Perhaps in the end the public will gain, for it may be assured that Mr. Hays| will take into the work he is soon toas- ] sume the same, spirit of helpfulness that he has always shown, and will try to bring about a betterment of the { films, which have so great e power for good and for evil in the daily enter- tainment and guidance of the people. —————— A Chicago woman demands $25,000 from a man who kissed her against her will.

The public service pay scale is too far below that of the picture film industry to permit any effort to rival the compensations in order to hold the services of people who are wanted by that business. This is plainly {llustrated by the case of Postmaster General Hays, who has just been announced as the latest high-paid recruit to the ‘‘pictures.” Mr. Hays is not going as an actor or a director of scenes, but as an execu- tive on a large scale of certain groups of picture concerns. His services are sought because he is known as a mas- ter hand at organization, a wizard of administration. He will without doubt be well worth the $150,000 a year that according to report he is to receive, with a three-year contract. He is a $150,000 man. He is worth all that| and more to the government, meas- uring his value by services rendered. So are many other men who draw gov- ernment pay and who get far less than one-tenth of that sum annually. Mr. Hays will round out a full year in the government service, retiring into the movies—or advancing, accord- ing to the point of view—on the anni- versary of his advent in the Post Office Department. In that year he will have more than justified his selection. He has worked wonders with the serv- ice, stimulating it to endeavors of high efficiency, correcting faults in admin- The Newberry Case.

Rich men have served there, some of them most use- fully; and as many of them have been democrats as republicans. But wealth has never led the Sen- ate, and is not leading it today. The great majority of senators have al- ‘ways been, and are now, men of modest means, qualified by native gifts and hard study for legislative ‘work, and have performed it absolute- ly free from all money influences. In the past few years the Senate has given notable evidences of its intellectuality. The debate on the Paris peace treaty, both for and against, was a very fine exhibition of _research and argumentative ability.

There should be provision of a voteless territorial “delegate in the Senate as. well as In the House. The voteless delegate is merely the legla- lative agent of the District with priv- ilege of the floor and the right to speak on local subjects as the advo- cate of the petitioning District. No genuine national representation is Involved. The delegate is not recos- nized by the Constitution and is not a part of Congress, either of the House or the Senate, under the Con- stitution. The delegate is not en- dowed with an atom of legislative we | power.

Indeed, every considera- tion which suggests value to such an agent in dealing with the House sug- gests also the necessity or the desir- ability of a similar agent in the Sen- ate. There is no weight to the con- tention that under the Constitution nothing ‘but states can be represented in the Senate and that, therefore, the District cannot be represented there even by & voteless delegate. Under the Constitution nothing but states can have representation in the House, thesn representatives being appor- tioned among the states according to census population. The District of Columbia is not any more to be iden- tified with a congressional district of a state than with & state as & unit. 1t may be debatable whether it will be as easy to give the District vot- ing representation in the Senate as in the House. but the proposition to give it legisiative agents in_ Senate and House with privilege of the floor to speak on District matters does not involve the grant to the District of real representation in either body.

And also by modification of the court decisions and by appro- priate legislation it should be given some of the territory’s local self-gov- erning legislative power: The te EDITORIAL DIGEST ritorial analogy should not be applied to the Distsict solely to impose Iimi- tations. If applied at all it should also give powers and privileges, Since the territorial status is not enjoyed by the District, and since the grant of a voteless delegate Will not raise the District to the territorial status, dignity and power, the limi- tation to House privileges of legisla- tive territorial agents should not necessarily appiy to any legislative agents which Congress may grant the District. i The theory that some peculiar sanc- tity attaches to the Senate as an as- sembly of ambassadors of sovereign states on a more exalted plane than the state representatives in the House is untenable. The people of the states now elect senators, who are like rep- teen states can claim for their sena tors this status under the constitu- tional pledge. Equality in the Senate was twice refused in the constitu- tional convention by a majority of these thirteen states and was agreed to In the end only because certain small states which, under the federa- tion, had equal power with the other states would not enter the Union un- less this equality was preserved in one of the two legislative chambers. The states shaping the Constitution were, therefore, coerced into an ar- rangement_which was offensive to & majority of them by the necessity of yielding on this point to a small mi- nority Tn order that the Union might be formed. It was recognized that the privilege of equality in the Senate was thus wrupg unwillingly from a majority of the states and that it was vielded solely for the benefit of the few small original states which held up the convention and_ blocked the creation of the Union. Neither large nor small states of the orlginal thir- teen were, with two exceptions (Mary- land and Virginia), willing to put in the Constitution a provision that new states should be admitted on the same terms as the original states. The con- vention, by a vote of 9 to 2, refused to add to the power of Congress to admit states to the Union the words “on the same terms with the original states.” And debate showed that the reasons for this refusal were as above stated. Senate, States and Constitution. The Senate is not by the Constitu- tion the assembly of ambassadors of equal soverelgn states. The Consti- tution makefs representing the thirteen original states, refused to pledge this equality to the new states (by a vote of nine to two.) It was pointed out in the constitutional convention that the fact that senators voted per capita and not as for states contra- dicted the theory of equality of state representation. Veto power by the President, who represented only one! state, gave to that state one-third lof the legislative power of the Senate and contradicted equality of state! representation in the Senate.

Asking for Bread, Given a Stone. In speaking at the 1916 hearing on our constitutional amendment before the Senate District committee, I said: “Those of us who are intent alone on the constitutional amendment do not look upon a territorial delegate as natlonal representation at all. We look upon the territorial delegate as merely the legislative agent of a ter- I ritory with the privilege of the floor | of the House for the purpose of: | speaking on District subjects and not las a part of Congress under the Consti tution. * * * I do not believe that an: thing authorizing a territorial dele- gato in the House can be found in the Constitution which will not au- thorize a similar voteless delegate in the Senate. It Is a provision made outside of the Constiiution for ihe territory of the United States, giving that territory a legislative agent in the transition period between ter- ritory of the United States and a state of the United Stataes, and from our point of view it is just as easy to grant to those who live in the DI Erict of Columbia a political status which shall give them speaking rep- | resentation on the floor of the Senate as it is to give them the privilege on the floor of the House; but such representation is not real representa- and under the existing cond! tiol of the District of Columbia it is not national representation at all. To srant it alpne is when we for bread to give us a stome.” The Dail Ratifies. An observation by the Manchester Union (independent republican) that «the last English-speaking people held In subjection becomes a free Peo- ple” emphasizes the words of the New York .World (democratic) when it says: “Whatever wild words may be uttered threatening further strife, the world today will chiefly and rightly contemplate the great advance which Saturday, January 7, 1922, marked in national and International relations. It is a red-letter date in history that we greet.” Narrow as the margin of votes for ratification was, there seems no doubt in editorial minds that it represented a vastly wider popular approval “This almost equal division of opinion is confined to the dail eireann,” re- marks the Cleveland Plain Dealer (in- dependent democratic), and the New York Call (socialist) agrees that “there can be no doubt that a ma- jority of the Irish people favored the action taken by the dail eireann. A long adjournment after a long debate enabled the members of the Irish par- liament to get in touch with their constituents, and statements made by members opposed to the agreement in- dicate that the great majority of the Irish people are in favor ©f putting the agreement into force.” “This reater and more powerful ratification s a certainty,” the Norfolk Virginian- Pilot (independent democratic) be- lieves, and thinks “it will come when the people of Sinn Fein Ireland are given the opportunity of electing a new body of representatives with the treaty as the determining issue.” The New Haven Journal-Courier (inde- pendent) believes ‘“the agreement finally reached appealed to the dis- passionate friends of Irish freedom the world over.” “The insistence of President De Vdlera upon a republican form of government” is characterized by the to| Bhiladelphia Record (democratic) as “curiously like the attitude of Maz- zini in the making of modern Italy,” who was “always and consistently for @& republic,” but argues that as Italy s “grown great as a kingdom, the "“Irish Free B'at is asurd of a lorious future.” The Brooklyn Eagle (Inaependent democratic) does mnot “for a moment belleve that the Irish people will reject - the Subs.ance of | freedom for the shadow of independ- ence to which De Valera and hi .';h':; a|De Valera “possesses statesmanlike qualities” cannot be denied—but he hag played the game and lo says the Florida Metropolis (democratic), adding that “retirement is the onl 8] ike move for him.” » stand was appreciated as an honest one by his adversaries,” in the opin- fon of the Wichita Eagle (independ- ent). “The opposition was undoubt- edly sincere, but it was wrong,” in the opinion of the Indianapolis News (independent), since, as the Rochester ; Tir - s-Lnion (indepenvent) insis.s— “The treaty, in practice, whatever' may be the case in theory, does give the Irish people the right to order their own lives in their own way. They have the unqualified right to make their own laws. They need : never send e soldier to war, except | by vote of their own parliament. They need never pay a penny in taxes un- ! less those taxes have been voted by their own representatives.” “To fight on for their conception of republicanism will bring the De! i Valera faction into collision with the ; primary essential of successful re- D bucanism, says the St. Lows Globe- | Democrat (republican), and noting that one of their causes of dissatis- faction is the status of ulster in the treaty, inquires: “May not the res dents of Ulster, seeing those who re- | sist the rule of reason at Dublin, gain {2 more accurate appreciation as to how their attitude looks to the disin- terested?” The method of negotiation in arriv- ing at peace is extolled by the New York Herald (independent), which says: “If ever there was a problem which presented seemingly unsur- mountable difficulties it was_that which existed in the British Isles, and the Chicago Post (independen views “the manner of reaching the agreement as encouraging as the fact itself.” The Newark News (inde- pendent) calls the contest “only an- other illustration of the way political bodies labor and creak to register the shortest step in progress.
