It is @ peace built upon conditions favoring per- manency. Under a protocol modelled after that adopted in the cloak in- dustry which was lately described in The Sunday World, these young women gail a settled basis for collective bargaining. They win the preferential union shop, a reduction of hours to fifty a week, an increase of wage rates running up to a third for the lowest paid. More than this, ‘They will be represented in a joint board to control sanitary conditions. They will be represented in a board to hear and dispose of complaints and smali grievances. ‘They will be parties also to an arbitration board for judging the larger questions of dispute. They win the right to affix a white iahel to their producta that buyers may be guided in preferring what has been made under tanitary conditions and in justice to the workeys. It is @ plan which has worked well in the cloak industry. It should work well in this. Who shall deny to women capacity for constructive industriel affairs when these working girls prove such ability on their own bebalf? TWO PHASES OF JINGOISM | HE time to fight is before a treaty of peace is signed. ‘I'he | time to assert rights is before entering into an agreement that limits them. It might have been lusty Americanism in the fall of 1901 to have resisted the execution of the Hay-l’auncefote treaty, by which ‘we assumed certain obligations at Panama. It ia nothing but a dis- henorabdle and faith-breaking Americanism which now avows a pur- pose to do as we please, bargain or no bargain. Jingoism always learns too late, because it is always in haste. It was a kind of jingoism that hurried us into the canal treaty with Great Britain which jingviem now wants to violate. If jingoism could be instructed in seseon it would soon cease to be jingoism. Tncapedle in that respect, its influence upon men who ought to bo superior to it is often prodigious. When we ratified the Hey-Pauncefote treaty our jingoes had all their flags out and their eagles soaring in favor of the compact. Now they are using the eame emblems in support of its repudiation. AS Aa Se a dame. Nordica says that “women will do as well as men when they have learned ali the men’s tricks of the trade.” Their acquisi- tion of them is progressing repidly, but will they ever master the wt of graft and other peculiarly masculine “tricks”? Cet aie, Oe MAKING LAWS RIDICULOUS. BERLIN expert in penology, in advocating a revision of tho German penel code, states that at present the: 80 many laws and regulations on the statute books | 18 man out of every six and one woman out of every twenty-five i ihe empire has been arrested and convicted of violating one or more of them. He drews the conclusion that the evil is due not to any law- leseness on the part of the people but to the excessive number of petty offenses made miedemeanore. ‘There ie another conclusion Americans will draw, and that is the | epparent strictness with which German laws are enforced. If we! were to have a rigid enforcement of all the laws that have been drawn up for the government of Now York, it ie likely that nearly half the population would be under arrest before May Day. It is quite oer- tain there would not be courts enough to try the accused or jails qmough to hold the convicted. It is doubtful if any active wan goes through a week without , Violating some trivial feature of our confused jungle of municipal ordinances, and our legislative restrictions are almost as intricate. No government can punish all these petty transgressions; yet because of them important ordinances are not enforced and serious offenses ere left unpunished. * ep A CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER. EFORE the House committee investigating the Shipping Trust B eppeared a gentleman holding a high position in the com- mercial world, who in fending rebating said: “Although from the way some people talk, one would think rebating a crime, I am an efficer of » church and a golf club, and can justify my conduct to my neighbors and to thie committes.” : There is eomething more then bravery in this vaunt. It con- @edes the rebating, but asserts a justification possible through the ‘This is the first time Congress has ever been confronted by this par ticular combination of piety and prestige. It will be conceded that under our civilization mo respectability is higher. Few folks attain it. Certainly if such @ man were put in the Ananias Club by the founder of the club, an indignant public would demand a recall. But what does the church and what does the golf club and what do the meighbors know about rebating? Do they practise it themselves or are they content to justify it in their officers?
