In support of the four-power treaty, { Senator Lodge delivered in the Senate ! vesterday ome of the meost impressive | Speeches ever heard in that forum. It Was impressive for its clarity, for its legic, for its measured calmness and for its lack of exaggerated statement. He did not claim perfection for the ‘work of the Washingten eonference or predict that it had set the world's feet on the millennium pathway. It is anly an experiment. he conceded, but he avewed “faith te believe that the bet- fer instincts of mankiad are all with us in the effort.” Senators listening to his words mml have felt. as they had net feit before, the weight of responsibility resting upon. them. “The best hope of the| world for a future where peace may prevail and wars diminish is in the people of the United States,” he said “If we fail, who can hope to succeed?” Senator Lodge made it plain to the dullest understanding that if the four- power treaty fails the other conference agreements must fail also, or, remmain- ing. be but empty sheils. If the four- power treaty fails the Anglo-Japanese ailianee, a distmct menaee to the peace of the United States, will not he abro- gated. If the American Senate rejects the four-power treaty the agreement for limitation of naval armaments is unlikely ever to be consummated, and failure of the naval treaty, as Senator } Lodge said, would “shock and startle the world and bitterly disappeint the American pecple.” ©pponents of the four-power treaty profess to see in it the possibility that at some time in the indefinite future, through some set of undetermined cir- cumstances. it may involve this coun- try in some unknown but unpieasant complications. That such a possibility lar positions and classes, but it is believed, in the present case, that such an order would not affect those classified prior te the passage of the retirement aect, nor those whe held positians except undar campetitive ex- aminations. Therefore practically none of the 6400 retired ewmployes now threatened with loss of thehr monthly annuities would be benefited, as prac- tically all of them were cfassified be- fore the retirement act became law. A distressing feature of the de- cision, as interpreted by the Interior Department, charged with the admin- istratien ef the retirernent act, is that the $0.08¢ presidential employes must lose what they have paid imto the retirement fund. Net being entitled to the benefits of the act, what they have paid in was illegally paid in. and cannet be recovered unless they re- sign from the service, and even then there perhaps woald be dififculty found as te the legal methed of giving the money back to them. The whole siiuation is extremely tangled. Secretary Fall has submit- ted a bill to Congress looking for re- lief of the situation. and Congress should take up the matter at once and not allow it to drag oen another week. The whole matter is, In essence, a technicality, but a technicality which may do untold barm. The intent of the retirement act is plain; it was to benefit, net to harm. Legal dectsion must be made. however, and so the Attorney General decides, let the chips fall where they may. It is the plain daty of the admin- istration. from the President down, to address themselves at once to this un- usual situation and in some proper way to do away immediately with the threat of serious hardships which may be wWorked by the decision.

Members of the Commercial Clud Educating Lawyers. “The lawyers know too much” complains a certain “free verse” poet, oniy to be flatly contradicted by such distinguished representatives of the legal profession as Chief Justice Taft and Elihu Root, who declared at a recent gathering of state bar associa- tlons in Washington that they know far too little. To correct what they feel to be a deplorable condition, the lawyers in this national conference adopted a resolution recommending that two years of general college work be required of every applicant for admission to the bar.

Immediate steps should be taken by the administration to remedy the situation brought about through the ruling of the Attorney General, as announced by Secretary Fall of the Interior Department; that presidential eppointees in civil service are not en- titled to the benefits of the retirement law. Under the decision 80,000 persons will be denied the benefits of the re- tirement act, not having taken com- petitive examinations to enter the service, and it is held that 6,400 of the £,000 already retired are recelving! their monthly annuities illegally. 1t is drastic enough to deny the rights of retirement to-such a huge: number of faithful servants of the Gountry, but to take away the dn-| ‘huities of four-fifths of those already | vetired would be little more than al ‘ealamity. §0,000 are to lose the money they have .paid ingo the retirement fund, but to s It is bad enough if the r!.renm.h. political problems and get them out of the way, and will obtain from Rus- sia in the way of reformation some- thing more definite than the unstable promises of Lenin, a later conferenc, with an agenda confined to economics, may be called with assurances that the United States will be represented and in mood for hearty and generous co-opetation.

The wholesale sounding out of young men in the late war brought to light the fact that the youth of the cities were as fit, in strict physi- cal sense, as the youth of the rural areas.
