In view of the complaints that have been made concerning the conduct of the Soldiers’ home and the charges that too little consideration is shown the old soldiers as to conveniences and food, it will be recognized that Gov- average November 13 people interested in things which con- cern them, for it has become generally recognized that what is everybody's ‘business proves to be. nobody’'s bus- iness, with the result that a commu- nity continues in the same old rut from year to vear, whereas if every- one can be interested in needed im- provements desirable results are cer- tain to be obtained. The movement is therefore one which should awaken a widespread enthusiasm. It proves the opportunity for evervbody to get acquainted with public needs and through that knowledge boest the good cause along. g Boston isn’t the only place, however, fMce 352 | where public sentiment can be molded with good results through such a method. There are, in fact, few cities ‘where it would not be possible for the same idea to be adopted with ex- cellent effect, for it aims to over- come the lack of cooperation which is so often the reason for necessary mu- nicipal work being left undone. St S iy ENFORCE WHAT THERE ARE. ‘Whenever there is a large loss of life, or even property, as the result of fire there is an immediate demand for new regulations which will put an end to such frightful happenings. It is recognized that laws are needed which will minimize the danger in schoolhouses, tenement houses and factory buildings since the protection of humanity demands them. Every case makes it evident that something should be donme which has not been accomplished. ‘When it is revealed as it has been recently in New York, following the investigation of the fire which caused so many deaths and injuries in a can- dy factory that the trouble does not lie in a lack of legislative measures, but in non-enforcement of them, it in- dicates that the trouble s not the fault of inadequate laws, but improper ai tention to their duties by those who are designateéd to see that the people live up to them. 1t appears now that out of the 3711 orders which have been issued for the fireproofing of stairways in factories in the metropolitan district of New York that in only 246 instances have they been complied with. This means that the Diamond candy factory case is likely to be repeated on a larger or smaller scale whenever a fire of like proportions breaks out in any one of over three thousand instances, This is the situation which calls for more attention instead of trying to pile up more protective measures. Un- less those which exist can be enforced it is folly to continue to make more laws which will be equally worthless. WHAT WILL ITALY DO?

By such a method, with the board assembled at thq institution, and facing both the complainants and those in charge of the home, it will be possible to determine whether the trouble is imaginary or real. And it is well that it should be determined as soon as possible.. The Soldiers’. home is not only in- tended to be, but should be a place of comfort for those who gave their services in the defense of the nation, who through circimstances of various kinds lack a home elsewhere. They should be properly cared for both as to quarters and as to food and no complaint which ' indicates that they are not being used right, or which sets forth that they are being served meals which are not as good as those provided for criminals in the state prison can be allowed to pass with- out a thorough investigation. Every effort must be made to get at the root of the dissatisfaction. If it is the management which is at fault it.will be easy to find it out, and if the complaints are not justified that can likewise be quickly determined, and in justice to both sides such ought to be done. For that reason much help in clearing up the situation is looked for from the investigation which is abdut to be made. CHURCHILL'S STATEMENT. Probably there is no one who has held a cabinet job in Great Britain who has received any more criticism than has Winston Spencer Churchill. He has been blamed for every mistake in which the navy was concerned up to the time of his change of portfolio. He was blamed because it was con- sidered his fault that certain moves were made. It was attributed to his inexperience, the possible disregard of the advice .of older heads and experts in naval affairs while he was first lord of the admiralty. Being out of the cabinet through his resignation from the inactive post to which he was named that he might g0 to the front for a greater service to his country, he took occasion to clear his racord. He did not attempt to shirk the responsibility which. was placed upon him as the guiding spirit of the navy, but he was frank to- de- clare that those mistakes which had been laid at his door. notably the des- patching of a force to Antwerp after it was too late and the attempt to open the Dardanelles by the navy alone, were not the result of immature thought, and showed that while he was not attempting to dodge what- ever blame was due him, others were as responsible as he was. In other words they were decided upon after full consideration in which the other leaders of the cabinet agreed and for which they are equally to blame. His statement has completely changed tfte attitude towards him and today he stands in the position which it has been maintained right ‘along by Pre- mier Asquith that he would wheén the facts were known. His critics talked. without full knowl- edge of the situation and that is un- questionably the case with a great deal of the fault that is being found with those who are entrusted with the tremendous task of carrying on the war. CITY PLANNING. There has been opened in the city of Boston this week a ‘“city planning” exhibit arranged for the purpose of offering suggestions which will be of much advantage if rut into effect. The object is to secure a beautiful city, a more convenient city and a city which ! through the application of thought to important details will re- sult in the general petterment of con- ditions for the good of all concerned.}Japan was already under the wire. ‘Too much attention cannot be giv- en to.such a matter which concerns| When Congressman Kitchin accuses The fact that it|those favoring preparedness of fear- the common good. has been neglected in the past is all the more reason that the shortcomings | the president. it begins to look as if of ‘thie past should be overcome in the|he was a candidate for the politica: future.

Aus- tria has also opened up submarine operations which are patterned after the policy which Germany so long fol- lowed in the war zone about the Brit- ish Isles in which the Ancona case corresponds to the Lusitania, though the number of lives lost is.not as large. As the result of this the” people of .Italy, whose cities have been raided, whose non-combatants, including women and children. have been killed, whose art treasures have been des- troyed, and whose steamers have been sunk without warning are demanding retaliatory measures. They believe that like should be returned for like, Which is no different than the demands that were made in England. The policy of reprisals has, however, not been fayored by the allies. In the case of England there has been an unwillingness to stoop to the meas- ures which have been adopted by the enemy on the ground that two wrongs do not make one right. It remains proper | La Follette and Europe are racing to to be seen whether Italy takes a sim- ilar view or whether it recognizes that the best way of causing Austria to stop its unjustified attacks lies in giv- ing the people of that country a dose of the medicine which Austria is try- ing on Italy.

From the way in which one member of parliament was squelched it would appear that that is a poor place for urging peace just now. Premier Asquith has not beén called upon to deny, as yet, that Earl Kitch- ener has gone to Switzerland to talk peace terms with Prince von Buelow. Though the United States treasurer may fear a famine in dollar bills, it is the scarcity of bills of larger de- nomination over which most people are concerned.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A Thanksgiving Reminder. Mr. Editori—In _answer to quiriés from readers, permit me to state that the Dollar Christmas Fund for Destitute Beiglans will remain open until-the end of December and ¢ | that all donations entrusted to me as Treasurer care of Henry Clews & Co.
