The nomenclature 13 not announced. but presumably it is eccentric and “fierce,” after the fash- ion of the Ku Klux, and with the same _ purpose—to attract the immature and “adventurous, and strike terror to the -“timid and superstitious. The name of the new organization suggests this. Tt recalls the famous couplet: “Tiger, tiger. burning bright, In the watches of the night!” The idea conveyed is of a keen glance * behind the mask. and of a swift and is ..sure spring of the eye’s owner as soon | 5 a situation is envisaged. .. Here is another “invisible empire.” »Here is a purpose to fight the devil with fire. Mask is set against mask. A hooded figure is to catch, and if possible destroy, another hooded figure. This is all wrong. Instead of mul- - tiplying them, let us do away with all masks. Let us not adopt fire as a weapon even in fighting the devil. Let us lay all of our -cards on the table, - face up. We are facing a serious situation in this country. But it is not beyond emedy by open means frankly em- *ploved. Let us stick to American methods.

I “'When the Russian-treasury peesses “began {6 turn out rubles by the'ton “‘rigat at Petrogred, afterward at Mos- fcow, could find the paper sufficlert for 1o hints at a great war. | But no signs of | this enormous production. Later came the explanation that the denomina- tions had been inéreased, so that'a mil- lion rubles could be printed in a short time and with little material. A thou- sand-ruble note was a bit of small change. Million-ruble notes came later. Just so in Germany the production problem is solved by increasing the denominations. A millfon marks may be compassed in a single slip of paper. The whole thing Is relative. To pro- |duce seven billion marks a day prob- ably means no more actual presswork than a billion product. Of course, this steady increase in the average denomination is simply an- other index of the ratio of value. In Russla it has just been stated a mil- lion rubles an hour is reckoned as a fair wage for workmen. That means probably ten or twelve million rubles a day. If payment is made by cur- {rency the worker is probably paid in million-ruble notes, which mean no more to him than quarters or half do lars of American currency. probably not as much. In Germany the situa- tion is rapidly becoming as bad. With the gdvernment printing presses pro- ducing seven billions of marks a day the present Russian standard will be closely approached. In both ‘countries the faster the i pres run, and the higher the de- nominations, the worse the situation Money production not a cure, but is rather an aggravation of the economi ease from which both Germany and Russia are suffering. . becomes. Heroes of the Argonaut. No more dramatic story has ever been written than that of the entomb- !ment of the miners in California and the efforts lasting for over three weeks to reach and rescue them. These men were caught In a deep level of a gold {mine by an outbreak of fire which cut Ioff their means of escape. They were Inot menaced by the flames directly, but by the noxious fumes from the {ignition. A roll call after the alarm had {been sounded and the erews were with- drawn had showed that forty-seven !were missing. It could be determined | just where they were probably located. i An accurate map of the mine indicated where they would have taken refuge onrush of the deadly gas. Without { the least hesitation, without any ques-, tion of the cost, without counting the risk to other lives, efforts were begun to reach the entombed men. So leng as there was no definite knowledge of their death it was hoped that they iwere living, and this hope sustained the spirits and maintained the energles i of the rescuers. { Prodigious feats of tunneling have .been accomplished in these three weeks. Great masses of rock have been pierced for the shortest cut from an avenue of safe approach to the esti- mated location of the trapped men. In short shifts the rescuers. volunteering for the service, plied their drills with feverish haste. If the men were living every hcur was precious. Yet as the {days went by hope waned. Three {weeks passed. Was it possible that | human life could continue for so long in such circumstances, in the dead blackness of the deep, in the fetid air, probably without food and perhaps without water? Every element was i;\guinsl the chance of a living rescue. i Yet on went the crews, digging foot iby foot into the stubborn walls, at times themselves enveloped in gas and sustained by pipe lines fed from the purer atmosphere above. Yesterday the men were reached and found dead. All the efforts of these three weeks of furious drilling have I been in vain. But not wasted. There could be no waste in such a quest, leven though it was fruitless. I It is impossible exactly to know the | circumstances in which these men finally died. Some indication appears that they were suffocated within a few hours after trying to build bulkheads te keep out the poisonous fumes, | stripping themselves to fill the cran- nies of their hastily built walls. One of them left a few scrawled words that | showed conclusively that it was gas that killed them, that they did not die from hunger or thirst. It was a merci- !lul death in that it was not protracted. apparently simultaneously. E The real heroes of the Argonaut | tragedy are the men who worked day jand night for three weeks to effect a {rescue, men whose names will never ibe known. There are such men every- where, in all circumstances of life, who will not reckon the cost to them- selves where a chance offers to save a fellow being. i After having taken the-trouble to tell England exactly what he wants; Kemal Pasha may as well prepare himself for some positive demonstra- tions apart from the broadsides of the | London litterateurs. ———————— Motion plctures with wordsare being advertised from Berlin: A film of the ex-kalser might be interesting, but his personal remarks would probably prove merely irritating. \ The ultimate consumer may find re- 'Hel in an errangement which will per- mit workingmen to go on working while the arguments are carried on in l;)olmcnl campaigning. The New York Democracy. In a letter to the chairman of the New York democratic state committee strongly proposing Willlam Randolph Hearst for the democratic guberna- torial nomination in ‘that state, Mayor Hylan of Greater-New York says: ‘The democratic party has an im- perative duty in the coming campaign. The eyes of the mution are on New York. If New York registers a-pro- gressive victory the nation will do so two years hence. If the democracy falls to_furnish a progressive leader in New York the leadership in the na- tion will go some other state— ma‘xybe to a state more intensely radi- cal. ‘The mayor’s proposition in full then is this: In 1923, for Governot of New York, William Randolph Hearst. In 1924, for President of the United States, Gov. William Randolph Hearst of New York. ‘What will be the effect of the propo- sition at Syracuse next week? To spur both the friends and the opponents of {if there were time to escape the first | { They seem to have died together and played to the limit in New If Mr, Hearst figures. in fhe next democratic national convent it will be, as Mayor Hylan suggests, as a New Yorker. He was fon & lpng time a citizen of Califoruia, years ago transferred his residence ‘to the Emplre state, % If Mr. McAdoo figures in that con- vention—many men are figuring that | he will—it will be as a Californian. He was for some years a citizen- of New York, but last year transferred his residence to the Golden state. ——— Mr. Pinchot's Republicanism. In a long dispatch from Harrisburg | to The Sunday Star giving an account of the campaign In Pennsylvania this appeared: Pinchot's refusal to accept the nom- ination of the third party, engineered under the heretofore challenging title of the progressives and in the interest of. Representative William J. Burke for senator, *has taken a good bit of the wind out of the sails of that v ture. He did this even when it was Fepresented to_him that it might mean 100,000 votes. and In the face of an apathy in regard to registration in the cities that surprised every one. Mr. Pinchot sought thé" nomination for governor as a republican, and ob- taiped it as a repubfican. He is asking | election as a republican, and’it is but |tafi: to assume that if clected he will administer his office as a republican. ;And get the enemies of the Harding iadministration, in summing upagains 1t and predicting its repudiation by the gountry in November, ficlude Mr. Pinchot among the disgrintled repub- licans who are keen to ‘put ajcrimp in their, party and smos\r.the way for the organization of a chird ‘party in tipa Cor operation & 1924. wewtaently this calculation is wide of the mark so far as Mr. Pinchot is con- cerned. He is not flirting for votes out- iside the organization to which he be- longs, and whose standard he is carry- ling’ in this campaign. Not even a tidy bloc of a hundred thousand votes tempts him. He is true to his colors. In all probability the calculation fs as wide of the mark in other cases. Tt is not easy to believe that men_aspir- ing to and capable of leadership are meditating double-crossing the party | that has honored them and from which they are seeking further honors. New York Wants a Play Night. Mayor Hylan of New York has just received a singular petition. which may give some concern to the city fathers. One George Sirico, chalrman of the Italian branch of a group of assoclated committees formed for the purpose, has asked “his honor” to fix a date for an annual “night of play,” one night when New York citizens will glve themselves up to gayety. To non- { New Yorkers this may seem a singu- lar request considering the amount of [pln)’ in which the inhabitants of the ibig town indulge at all times. In the petition it is pleaded that the people may be given a chance to “forget for one night the most recent and least popular of our national reforms.” One can imagine New York In such a state of forgetfulness even for one night. Normally it would be possible to look for a prompt politan authoritles. But just now a campaign is in progress, and one never knows what .wilkhappen when fan election is at hand. They play strange politics over in New York un- der Tammany auspices. - One can easily conceive Hylan hoomed for President by the “night of play” pro- ponents if he yielded to the present petition and set the date desired and gave orders for a wide-open town for that occasion. But, of course, there is another side to the giiestlon. Though {denominated in the petition as the {least popular of national reforms pro- hibitlon still has friends. Just how many friends is a moot questton. Pro- tagonists of “nights of play—365 of them annually—say that these friends of prohibition are the small minority of the people. Others differ. But it would be interesting to test this ques- tion, perhaps through some such ac- tion as a mayoral decree of a dryless night. 7 —_————————— Following the custom of newly at- talned position, Mustapha Kemal sends out an ultimatum by way of opening negotiations. —_——— Clemenceau has managed to create fa storm in Paris not only by what he has said, but by what he is going to say. i i { ' SHOOTING STARS.

The idea as proposed was sim- ply that it would afford them an op- portunity to get under canvas again for a week or two: anyhow it would be a change from the ordinary rou- tine of hospital life. Their going to the outdoor camps could be made op- |tional, so that those who do not care ifor the change would not have to leave their present quarters. Just think of the fun it would be for the doughboy to look up and .down the company street and realize that he would not have to police it (clean up) the next day. To mome men the smell of the great outdoors through canvas is most appealing. * X ¥ ¥ FRIEND of mine who recently returned from New York brings back with him the story that a cer- taln well known soclety woman has | been much perturbed because she has been unable to find numerous pet bow-wows that will match the shades of her latest full and winter gowns.

The other day a tall, lanky individual who, from his complexion, evidently had spent much of ‘his life in mountain fast- nesses zig-zagged his way up to and in front of the before-mentioned foun- tain. Gazing lazily at first, at the counterfelt of the god of the sea, and the different creatures surrounding him, he suddenly straightened up and reached into a capacious back pocket of his coattall, withdrew from there a flask contalning a yellowish white liquid and hurled it into the grounds situated just across the street car tracks. Perhaps this was caused by the shadows that fell on Neptune through the trees; as the leaves moved it gave a particularly eerie effect to the statue, Neptune appearcd to be shaking. ’ * ok x % PEAKING of the Library of Cogeress reminds me of the fact that there Is a painting on the ceiling in the office of the librarlan of a beautiful woman; it is marred, how- l “Breakfast Table Talk.” | Rudyard Kipling’s repudiation of the sentiments he was alleged to have entertained toward the United States in a recent interview attri- { buted to him seems to have added to, {rather than:diminished. the Interest with which his’ remarks have been received tirgughout the United States. The New York World, which fathered the article of Miss Clare Sheridan, after receiving the poet's denial, said: “That Mrs. Sheridan visfited Mr. Kipling cannot be doubted. That she held the interview as outlined in the World is. of course, a matter of ue between Mr. Kipling and her- Those who know Mr. Kipling's s on the subject of America will {not have much question.as to the autorship of the statements attribu- ted to him.” ! To this the New York Tribune re- iplies that “Mr. Kipling 1s a blunt jspeaker. There is no more caustic analysis of American character than his lines on ‘The American Spirit. But such considered candor is one thing. Casual, private talk, torn from the setting and twisted by a care-free listener is another. If all | the private talk of the great men of {the world were repeated by gossiping women and spread broadcast there would be preclous little chance of international _understanding. The power of a newspaper to jmprove or debase international relations Is very great. Its conscience should be cor- respondingly acute.” The Springfield Republican as- sumes the position that “his quarrel is with her and Americans have no iquarrel with him. It is partrularly pleasing that Mrs. Clare Sheridan s not an American nor' an Ameri- can newspaper correspondent. The English must assume responsi- bility for her. If Mr. Eiyling objects to having his June table taik exploited in a September lssue of a New York newspaper he myst first have It out with hisown country- woman.” The Wall Street Journal holds that the interview was pub- lished for political effect and was “a | gratuitous demonstration ot ~the ! exigencies of American politics.” For the most part the editorial forum agrees that the sentiments ex- pressed accurately reflected Mr. Kip- ling’s personal views and such h o debated. The Baltimore Sun why resent the truth?” and e poet champion of un- forgetfulness is not so far wrong when he refers to our war profits and to our commercial morality. There were many sordid hearts end sordid motives back of our action and we should not get mad if somebody taunts us with it and rubs the truth into a sore spot. Kipling has a right to remind us that we are not quite 30 virtuous as we want to think our- selves and we have a right to remind him that Britannia’s skirts have a good deal of mud on them.” Replying to Senator Borah's charge that “Ki ling has slandered the American dead,” the Memphis Commercial Ap- peal argues that repudiation of our European obligations was even more of a slander, saying that “it is good and honorable and patriotic to resent any and all slanders heaped upon our dead who died in what has thus far been & vain cause, but what about those who have made the cause vain and hopeless? What about those who have broken falth with the dead?” The ‘wpecific _allegations aftributed to Kipling are sufi.clently answered by .!:a Here and There in Washington BY “THE MAJOR” l EDITORIAL DIGEST Kipling’s Repudiated Interview |cinnat | § | ever, by a crack in the ceiling which gives the appearance of a partial de- capitation and to the visitor it would seem that the fair one is sbout to lose her head.

For years and years woman's great ambition was to have long, luxuriant tresses, but according to the informa- tion given me by the wife of a friend, the maidens of today are in a terrible quandary. Many of them who have had the so-called permanent waves made at much physical discomfort and no small expense are bemoaning the fact that after a few months the growing out of the halr leaves a straight stretch from the scalp to the beginning of the wave. According to my filend’s wife she overheard a young woman in a hairdressing par- | o lor ask if there was not something to put on the hair to stop it from growing. ok X K NE of the greatest evils that con- fronts the citizens of the com- munities throughout the land can be corrected by judges who preside over courts that deal with drunken or reckless drivers.
