v@x ENpING JARUARY 17, 1820 10,376 CABINET CTHANGES. © Whethér or not there was lengthy dummnon over the possibility of ndming & républican to. sacteed Seo. rétary Glass of the treasury depart- mént, for Which st an assistant Laffingivell had Dbeen promi- 1nuiuv mentioneéd, the selset | béén made and o repudiican is re- ~quired in the Wilsoa cabines. It Was supposed iaat lhe treasury porttalio had been filled for the-re- mainder of the term when Carter Glass ‘was chosen, but death removed Sepator Martin of Virginia and Secre- i tary Glass was sought for that work. Tpon the advice of the president he aeceptéd it and for weeks has been * waiting to take up his werk in the upper branch of congress. % As the new secretary of the treas- wry, Secretary Houston of the agri- . cudtural department has been chosen and hé will take up entirely new work ‘bécause of the fact that he has ‘been ah aksistant professor of political eéonomy, as well as swoh other quali- fications as he has for a cabinet po- sitfon. One portfolio is not as a rule A, stepping stone'to the other but it was apparently easier to get a new man for the agricuitural post than fer the secretaryship of the treasury, and it remains for Secretary Houston, even though he has had less experi- encé in finanee than either of his pre- decearors to make good during time * whieh Bre bound to be plenty strenu- ouk. _In Edwérd T.

The senate committee on military affairs has gone deeply into the ques- tion 8f reorganizing the army. Tt hasj considered. many Suggestions and héard many witnesses qualified to pass ‘their opinion on such a matter and| the result is that they have present- o what they believe shouid constitute; “the military policy of the country| henteforth. ‘~ The bill as presented by the senate! committee differs radically from the; x-?ini,mmm bill in several respects | calls for an army about half the! size, with 280,000 men and 18,000 offi rs where the administration bill| seeks a standing army of 576,000 men, it means an expenditure yearly of| half a billion instead of a billion dol- Jars for the army and it calls for com- | pulsory training of boys between the! ages of 18 and 21 for a period of four months to be followed by enrollment | in the reserves for a st-tcd period thereatter. ‘The compulsery training l: in re- {spons=e to the gemands for action that would prevent the country again find- =ipg itself in the situation it did.on| entramee into the world war. The size of the standing army is deter- mined l‘?accord with the needs of peace ‘ time conditions. Instead at seme future time calling out the Young men of the country as was @one in the late war for service with- out training, except what could be Jarriedly given, the universal mili- tary training would find them ang the country prepared much better than ever beforeswith every fit young man in the years to come instructed in military affairs, Much effort has been put forth in behaif of such training. The'senate etommittee has decided to recommend it to congress. What action will be taken in the lower house has not as yet been determired but it is indicat- #d that the sentiment of that body's| cemmittee is pretty evenly divided. —_— DEPORTING THE REDS. A United States. gistrict attorney in Philadelphia has resigned his position Necause he is not<in harmony with the laws he Is supposed to enforce. That heing the case he has done the wise Shing and the real cause for gurprise Yies in the fact that he ever under- Jbok work that required him to re- 'spect laws before his own judgment. § It having been determined that the ' communist pany requires its mem- bers to stand and work for the over- throw of gevermment by force Secre- tary Wilsen of the department of la- bor has ruled that the alien members of such an organization should be ! dealt with by geportation.

" After tening all. IJMI u; results beeause 6f the fallure 6f’those most directly epneerned to agree on a settiement of the situation in the Mm?'&ne the Solution appears to have icen réachid by the accerierca on the part of the Jugoslavs of ‘the terms agreed to by Italy and sSubmitted by the supreme council. Jugoslivia has taken a sobér second thought. It has | done so reluctantly but it has appar- ently seen the impertante of ending the dispute and setting ‘in motion time undertakings which are tm needed there as weH as inoth- er sections of devastated Europe, The terms that the Jugosiavs have agreed to Mmean concessions on the part of both sides. Italy gave up its claim to Fiumte, dbout Which so much has been gaid in the efforts to adjust the trouble. This puts to an end the Seizure of that city by D’Annunzio and his foliowers and that city, to which the Jugoslavs also laid claim will be administered under the diréec- tion of the league of nations. It will be an open port and by the arrange- ment Jugoslavia will be provided with an outlet to the sea. Thé adjustments aléeng the eastern voast of the Adriatic léaves Italy with less than it souyght but virtyally in coatrol even thoughi: the islands are demilitarized. The agreement is one to cause gen- eral get récognition for the part they play- ed in the great war, and it is far pref- erable that there ghould be an agree- thent than that the couneil of ambas- sadors or the league of hations should be left to enforee a decision that was agreeable to, one and not to the other. And the reiations of the countries in- volved as well as the feeling through- out that region are bound to be much better. It is a compromise that ought to work out well dnd mean peace ra- ther than trouble in the Adriatie. BASED ON THE FACTS. Attention cannot fail te be given to the manner inh Which the special labor board of Neéw York state has been able to bring about an adjustment of the dispate Dbétween the Zarment workers and their empioyts, and it indicates very plairly that such sM tlements are fur visferable to tle sort to force and the ereation of in-! creased difficulties £0 ofton experi- enced where there is an absowte re- fusal- to be guided by the facts in the case, Even though thé élaim of the gar- ment workers to the éffect that the goverament reports an increase of £5 per cent. and Bradstreét's 75 per cent. in living costs durifg the past five years, Guring which their wlges had been raisd only 60 per. cent., must in- dicate to many that the garment workers have come far neartr to keeping WYages and the cost of living together than have many employers in other lines &t activity, it cannot fail to be noticed that there was a willingness to be governed by the facts in the case, and the submission of the dispute to the labor board un- der those conditions has resulted in an award of 15 per cent. increase in- stead of the 30 per cent. raise soight. Thus is avoided a strike with the ! unfcrturate conditions that are al- ways conpected therewith and it is regettable that such settiements do not make a wider appeal when labor troubles are threatened . In connection with this increase in pay it is the expectation of the board that granted the increase that the additional wages should come out of the empioyer rather than out of the onsumer. In that the 14 per eaat. increase to the miners was apparent - Iy taken as an extmvie, bul it now remains to be Secn whether the con- sumer escapes thn payment of the raise. He isnt ase to dedge many of them. EDITORIAL NOTES, Tt takes a very short time for the beautfful snow to become dirty and unrecognizabls., D’Annunzio has apparently g\me:l into one of those positions which i eiving him much worry as to how to get out. The sun must have gotten the right focus on those icebergs that have been throwing their influence all over New England. If William J. Bryan didn't differ with others so often he would not be abie to keep so prominently in the public eye. How easy it would be to win a dis- tinguished service medal if all that was required of commanders was to lose their ships? ° -— It is too late now for the Turks to| claim that they wanted to join the allies but were deceived into joining the central powers.
