F it is true that Eamon De Valera has assumed supreme command of the fighting rebel forces in Ireland, the die is indeed cast. All along De Valera has been furnishing a rallying point for rebellion, a focus for fanati- cism, a cover for lawlessness and riot. But until now ke has not openly declared himself an enemy in arms against the Free State. * With De Valera directing the attack upon the Provisional Government troops, the situation in Ireland becomes out-and-out civil war. There can be no pretense this time that Irish- men are not fighting Irishmen over an issue that Irishmen have decided. The Free State won the majority support in an election. The will of the Majority is being defied by a minority of their own countrymen. Irishmen are shedding Irish blood to see whose Irish freedom has been won. It was Abraham Lincoln who reminded a peo- ple at a great crisis in their affairs: “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” That truth can be bitter and bloody in the proving. Ireland is at last face to face with it. There is no room now for the old plea that Irish- men must stand together: against the oppressor. The sole remaining question is: Shall [rishmen rise against Irishmen? : The beginning of the test came yesterday with the surrender of the Four Courts in Dublin to the Free State forces. The best hope for ireland is that the rest may be short and decisive. William Rockefeller leaves it all,to his de scendants in such manner as to defy the best efforts of any one of them to starve. BUCKETEER METHODS. T IS reported that a “bucketeer pool” contrib- uted to the collapse of E. M. Fuller & Co. When the bucket shops were under fire recently, the story goes, several proprietors met to pool resources and bolster up the shaky fitms. Here we have another example of how the bucket shop mimics more legitimate financial practice—but with fundamental differences. Heavy withdrawals, a false run, frozen credits may threaten sound and solvent banks. Other banks lend money, rediscount notes and securities THE WEEK EAT and HUMIDITY continued to be the princi- pal topics of interest as June dragged to a tor rid close. June rains broke the fifty-oneyear record. The oldest inhabitant admitted the old days were never like this, $ . After making a new record in climbing MOUNT EVEREST, the party of British explorers were forced to abandon the attempt—for this year. Higher than Everest, in the opinion of the Transit Commission, are the I. R. T. VALUATION figures the company submitted. . More welcome to New Yorkers is the news that SUBWAY FLICKERITIS has been ended by installing ® new device in the contact shoe. The Herrin Massacre seems to have been the final stimulant to Executive action looking toward settle ment of the COAL STRIKE. ‘ Prospects of a RAILROAD STRIKE grow more men- acing. The Railroad Labor Board is trying to induce both parties to behave. Thé managers responsible for “outlaw contracting” have been as obdurate as the men. The hot June sun must have shone blood-red over the Four Courts of Dublin, where IRISHMEN fought IRISHMEN in the interests of eventual peace. In sports, SUZANNE and MOLLA won their early games at Wimbledon. Hot weather ought to insure * against cold feet, even though it may make for warm On this side of the Atlantic the week opened with JUDGE LANDIS talking “like a Dutch uncle” to the Yankees and the Boston Americans. He admitted sunrise is beautiful, but declared ball players ought {| mot to see it before retiring. 7—_—_—— ACHES AND PAINS From Kobe, in farof Japan, comes a new one—a fax on servants, Families employing a single person pay 50 cents a year to the olty.

This is sound banking and good finance, be- cause these supporting firms are better informed than the public. They investigate the solvency of the threatened firm and the shaky bank is not permitted to continue in the course that has shaken it. The reverse would be true with the “bucketeer pool.” In a bull market all the bucket shops are likely to lose—and keep on losing. If the strong help the weak, it weakens the strong and doesn’t tide over the weak If the report of such a pool is confirmed, it is only one more count against the bucket shops and their way of doing business. What with strikes actual and threatened, the second half of 1922 begins uneasily. and tide over the threatened institution and so — ———-—__--— _ The Weeds Win! prevent panic and loss of public confidence. “MIXED MUSIC.” HE rumble of the subway, the roar of ele- vated trains, the clank of surface lines, the swish, hurry and honk of automobiles, the gen- eral confusion and din of the city streets we have always with us. New Yorkers are accustomed to these sounds and are scarcely conscious of. them. This fact accounts for the phrase, “An in- describable mixture of popular and classical music,” in a letter to The Evening World printed to-day. The writer undoubtedly heard all the usual city noises, but it was the medley of sounds from phonographs and player-pianos that attracted his notice. This auditor, however, has not exhausted pres- ent possibilities for mixing music. The radio has introduced a new source of con- fusion. With an amplifier attachment the radio can compete with other mechanical devices. While HGX is broadcasting the bedtime story to the floor below, MPZ may be carrying a lec- ture from a strong-lunged Chautauqua speaker to the floor above. : Across the court the radio may be tuned in for the leather-lunged announcement of the blow- by-blow summary of a prize fight. Mixed music? Well, rather! BACKBONE VS. WISHBONE. I‘ THE North Dakota primary election the victories of both Frazier and Nestos are, in a way, more interesting than the defeat of Senator McCumber. Frazier and Nestos were adversaries in the re- call election last year.. One or the other had to be defeated. Nestos won and Frazier lost. Each stood definitely for a clear and distinct policy in the government of North Dakota.

Gay, speculating in July Atlantic on the mystery Noah's wife, throws in tlfese marks: Noah seems to have gone about catching the animals, for example, quietly, methodically, and modest- ly. Not a word is said about any difficulties he may thave had. And yet any one who has ever tried to catch an unwilling hen, or drive a pig through a gate, or keep a erasshopper or a frog in @ box, or put salt on a bird’s tail, must have wondered what his miethod was; how this astonishing man knew where each stood. And the voters decided. Then when Frazier and Nestos entered the primaries for different office, both won by com- From Evening World Readers What kind of letter do you find most readable?

New York, June 28, 1922. “The Only Way.” ‘To the Editor of The Evening World: “Michael Collins is defending Ire- land against Irishmen. It is the only way'’—allow me to finish the sen- tence: It is the only way England wants—civil war. England has been working for that since she was beaten by the Republi- cans. She started it herself in Ulster and is making a great success of it in the slaughter of the innocents. AMERICAN. New York, June 28, 1922. were voting for. Nestos ran far ahead of Mc- Cumber, who straddled the Non-Partisan League issue in North Dakota. A considerable number of voters must have vated for both Frazier and Nestos. A good many citizens of the Flickertail State seem to have voted for backbone in preference to wishbone. If politicians would learn the lesson, if voters elsewhere would follow the North Dakota exani- ple, political skies would be brighter. What is it? - hypnotic degree. How may it be defined? DEMPSEY bows to the decision of the Boxing Board and will accept the challenge of WILLS, re- Gardiess of the color line. If Dempsey should lose, one hates to think of the maudlin concern over need for a “white hope.” Notable deaths of the week included William Rock- efeller, Prince Albert of Monaco and Walter Rathe nau, who was the victim of monarchist assassins in Germany.

They seem to have no modesty, no morals and no brains. On the street they giggle and smirk at every young man that passes by. On the beach they parade up and down scantily attired without going near the water. In the evenings they all flock to various dance halls, where they allow themselves to be publicly embraced by men whom they have never seen be- tore. And they always wear a thick cov- ering of paint on their faces to hide the hideous pallor derived from late hours and dissipation, It's disgusting. EDWARD BAILEY.

While Martin Meyer is right about UNCOMMON SENSE By John Blake (Copyright, 1922, by John Blake.) FAIR EXCHANGE. Personality counts heavily in life. We know that some people possess it to an almost Others are almost totally without it. We should say that personality arises largely out of a desire to pay for what we get in the world. The selfish man wants something for nothing. He expects to be entertained without being entertaining He expects to be amused without being amusing. to be well If he is moody, he selfishly indulges his moods, no matter how much they may depress other people. If he feels out of sorts, he shows it, although he might guess that others are not interested in his afflictions. He is, in short, indifferent to all other people, to their interests and to their concerns. He lacks absolutely the quality called tact. 3 ‘The man of personality makes his friends and acquain- tances feel that he is interested in them. He tries to speak their language. He is thoughtful and considerate. He puts their concerns, while he is with them, before He feels that it’s his duty to be pleasant and agreeable. He treats everybody alike. He is as tactful in dealing with a servant as he is in dealing with a bank President. He is not self-abasing or servile. his business to be cheerful, fo be interesting, to extend him- self a little in order that he may bring something to a con- yersation or contribute something to the enjoyment of those with whom he comes into contact. The self-centred man is prone to be morose and to ap- pear dull, whether he is or not. ' He is without attractive personality, and the lack will ” probably cost him success, and surely cost him all the great- est enjoyment that life has to offer.
