Sincere, humane intervention may mean peace for its people, educational, relig seek. Such intervention might be worth the heav called upon to pay. chief financial backers of the Hughes campaign. and valleys of our sister republic. But that will me: brand of intervention does Mr. Hughes propo%e? Wars and the Birth Rate ty PA S the great war drags on toward another New Year, as it becomes more and more the business of the whole ld, too many persons incline to take a comfortable view it. They accept it as the inevitable, as if it were a con- n of nature, as much beyond human control as an P of Vesuvius. Falling back on Malthus relieves the “strictly neutral” some who profit much by war's commerce, of any re- sibility for an opinion as to “who made the war.” _ Malthus, 100 years ago, warned mankind that popula- tended to exceed subsistence unless war, famine and lilence were to have sway occasionally. And between the war and the extraordinary rise in food ces man seems to be caught, somehow, in the actual work- out of old Malthus’ pet problem. But peaceful persons who believe that it is a nation's to keep out of war maintain that the present struggle be justified on any theory of the over-population of country. Old Malthus did not have very good birth statistics to from, but the National Council of Public Morals m land has them, and in their recent report they state that birth rate is declining. “If the birth rate were maintained at anything like its level all over the world, the population of the globe, h is now 1,700,000,000, would, in 120 years, have reached 000,000,000, or about ten times as great a number as the could support,” runs the report. htened. In England, within 35 years, the birth rate hus id one-third; in France and Belgium it has become onary; all the rulers of Europe have been alarmed at the ipid decline of births in the last century. Afd the English report says that “the decline has been marked in the more prosperous classes,” that “wherever ical and social conditions bring a man or a class into a ion in which he hopes to rise or fears to fall the family il be restricted,” and that “the birth rate varies inversely ith the income.” Evidently persons who fear war or defend it as an un- woidable process of nature must hereafter ignore the birth fecords and overlook the conscious which develops in nations in proportion to their culture or Istatus of civilization. Every time Hyghes takes a crack at the Adamson eight-hour-day law, he has to remember that Joe Cannon and the majority of republicans voted for it. A | For Lieutenant Governor OUIS F. HART, lieutenant governor, is going about the state, ranting against the labor federation, the farmers’ ges, and direct legislation advocates who were instrumen- in putting the referendum on seven of the vicious measures “passed by the last legislature. He particularly is defending the bills which seek to cripple the initiative and referendum and direct primaries. He sheds @ few crocodile tears for the good old convention days which ; ¢he hopes will be restored under Referendum Bill No. 5. “4 Hart, as presiding officer of the senate, was considered quite a joke in Olympia. 3 Once, when Gov. Lister was away from the state for a 4 week or s0, Lieut. Gov. Hart proved himself a joke to the en- tire state. Taking advantage of Lister’s absence, Hart named two members of the board of regents of a state institution. Hart presumed to make the appointments as temporary gover- Ds mor. There was no urgent need for the appointments. .< 1 was no emergency. It was just the act of a thoro egotist. The | state laughed, the men whom Hart appointed refused to ac- {cept appointments from him, and Lister named hy own men, ~ anyhow.
