Both those members of Congress whn would openly and frankly defeat the Lill and those who would destroy it with throttling amendments assume a responsibility to-which the Amesi- can people inevitably will hold them. The administration’s merchant ma- vine bill is a constructive effort to solve one of the most serious and| difficult problems inherited from the | war. To defeat it without offering any- | thing constructive in its stead would atesmanship as it would he as poor be poor business, and it would be the poorest kind of polities. Tt might win present applause from the thinking, but when the great 1 of the people get down to thinking on this problem, as s or later they must, the position the mere obstruc is not = to be a pleasant one. —_———————— ne of ns | nist, Some of the European leaders re- fuse to perceive that a faod shortage ought to be provided against more carefully than an ammunition short- age. ——————e—————— The curbs in the middle of Con recticut avenue will prevent automo- bile interference in case the street cars are tempted to exceed speed} limits. —————e———— One of the accomplishments a mon- arch of the more primitive type now cultivates is that of packing a suit case rapidly. ————————— The “tiger” of France knows how | to growl, but the genial atmosphere | of America has induced him only to! purr. —_—————————— Ellis Island. “Conditions at Ellis Island and the treatment of immigrants there™” were under criticism in the house of com- mons yesterday, and the undersecre- tary for foreign affairs was interro- xated on the subject. This is taken from a London press cable: Sir Harry Brittain, member for the Action division of Middlesex. asked whether it was not far better for British emigrants to g0 to some sec- tion of the empire. Jir. McNeill did not reply, but the question evoked cheers from the ministerial benches. British emigrants prefer the United States. They find larger opportuni ues here. The English speech makes | them feel at home from the start, and they thrive. ! -Just now Canada, who stands in| need of population, is losing many of her people to this country, and com-| plaining about it. She is taking steps to toll them back. if it is possible, by appealing to their patriotism. At the same time she is offering special in- ducements to. American farmers in the northwest to cross over and be-| come British subjects. Criticisms of the arrangements for receiving and handling immigrants at Ellis Island are too often hefrd. The matter should be investigated, and if changes are advisable they should be made. The country should be hos- pitable toward those secking homes . i Lof the United S un- | i now men m: { have here and make their first impressions as agreeable as possible.

A New York firm has manufactured a candle sixteen feet high and fiv feet imference at the bas which is to be shipped to Ttaly and burned in the Church of Our Lady of Pompeii, in memory of Enrico Caru It is suggested that the candle shall be lighted each All Souls’ day and burned for twenty-four hours and that, burned thus one day each s in ¢ 0. vear, it will e cighteen centuries b fore the flame in the great singer memory flickers out for the last time. remor Such a 1 makes a powerful appeal to the imagination, but in the phonographic records of Caruso's wonderful voice he has a memorial which may well outlast even this long-burning candle. The flame of a candle i after all, but a feeble thing, and it might well he that as the centuries passed Caruso would vecome more famed for his candle than for his gift of song. But music not only a universal language, it » is the language of all time, and ce eighteen hundred years from hear Caruso's voice and marvel at a gift so divine. s And will they marvel, also, at the ! zenius of an age which made possible memorial such as this, or will they pity us for the cruditics of the time in which we live?

The next consideration will be the entertain- ment of propositions to amend it. N —————— Smokers and Street Cars. In the street cars of this city are posted signs forbidding smoking in the cars or the carrying into them of | lighted “smokes.” In the main this rule is-strictly observed by passengers, but there are some who take advan- tage of the crowds and the inability of conductors to watch everybody and everything correctively, and they carry smoldering “snipes” into the cars, greatly to the discomfort of others. Even smokers do not like the trickle of stale smoke from a slowly dying and often questionable' brand of tobacco. Sometimes this is habit, the habit of preservation and conserva- tion. Again it is a bit of defiance of rule. But whatever the motive, the ef- fect is the same, the pollution of the air in the car and the actual endanger- ‘ment of passengers. A lighted cigar is not a particularly safe appendage, whether in hand or mouth, in such e buildings | far | or would it seem crude to cars | {which have the | THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C ]crowds as now occupy the street cars. jMany a burn has been suffered from this cause, and the dropping of ashes upon the clothes of persons is not un- naturally resented. Perhaps a way to make the rule uni form and protect all passengers from the contamination of the air or the menace of blowing or smudgy stumps {would be to provide a parking sys- i tem, whereby owners of these cher- lished fragments may check them at the door on entrance. The Public Utilities Commission is urged to con- der this as a means of relieving the ar-riding public from a nuisance. Some day a passenger may suffer a severe injury from a burning cigar, and the question will arise whether ! the responsibility rests upon the own- er who has violated the rule, or upon { the company that has not enforced it. ———— H Uncle Sam. Say the Kuropeans, in substance, {about Uncle Sam: “There is no get i ting along with him, or without him. i We met him in Par negotiated a i treaty covering world affairs and ac- { cepted his signature to it, only to find {later that his representative did not possess full powers.

The answer is that Uncle Sam, to be understood, must be appraised ac- cording to American values and limi- j tations, and not according to Euro- ipean practices and notions.
