For Children and COnSumptiyeS.

Special features of the District
budget as it passed the House and
specific legislation to the District
on special subjects such as child
labor, justify the hope that this
Congress may correct more than
one of the larger evils which now
flourish at the Capital. Thus, the
District budget makes an allowance
of $4,000 for Fairgrounds and an
appropriation of 500, 900 for the
construction Of hospital for indi-
gent consurlptives, while the House
has acted favorably upon separate
compulsory education and child
labor laws.
In two of these cases, as i 4 nearly
every case where legislation is
sought, something is left TO work
for. The local Fairgrounds commit
tee seeks to obtain a model build
ing for use all the year round.

it club for children. The value of
such an institution IS proven be-
ycnd all question by the work of
the Boys Club already carried as
far as citizens can go unaided with
out the contribution of cent. from
Congress. Likewise the allowance
for the tuberculosis hospital is
lower than good Judgment will APP
prove. Though a considerable sum.
100000 is not enough TO produce
q maximum result dollar for dollar.
The estimate of S15o,OOo was pur-
posely kept as low as the needs of
the situation would permit and it
is greatly TO be hoped the Senate
will increase the allowance - that
figure.

The Strike Outlook.


The indications at the close o.
yesterdays sitting of the tri-dis-
trict miners convention at Scranton
were that strike in the anthracite
field is all but certain. Perhaps it
viii have been declared by the
time this is read.
The suspension of work has con
tinued several weeks. and there has
been general feeling that finally
settlement would be effected with
out strike. Public opinion is not
crystaIized yet into very salts
factory conclusion as TO which
side is entitled TO the blame for
the impending calamity But if a
strike is called there viii be a
prompt review of the racts and con
ditions and the community at large
viii decide to which side sympathy
and moral support shall be given.
The side that gets this re-enforce-
ment Will stand TO win, provided it
conducts. itself throughout the
struggle in such manner as not to
lose this advantage.
President Roosevelt does not
want TO take a hand in any effort
to settle this trouble, and he is
right. His announced position is
that miners and operators can do
all the fighting they Ike without
getting him into the affair, so long
as they pay the freight. But when
the public becomes The chief suffer
er, when industry is fettered and
households are left shivering for
want of fuel, il viii be his time TO
step in, as he did in the last strike.
This is a safe rule-a rule that. in
its working out, may become the
basis of a scheme of compulsory
arbitration. The public looks with
confidence 10 the White House for
way out OF the threatened
troubles. 1t is not too much to say
that there would be vastly more
concern about the threatening
danger but for this feeling that an
other strike would be settled as the
last one was.
1t is in just this attitude that the
public and the parties TO the con-
troversy make a mistake. The Pres
ident has no business interfering
in such cases except in his capacity
as distinguished citizen, concern
ed to secure fair treatment and liv-
ing conditions for all the people. It
IS unfair to impose such response
bilities upon him. To learn to lean
on the paternalistic arm Of a str6np
government is not good for people,
whether it be IN the matter of stop
ping a strike OF of distributing Jobs
when jobs are scarce.
\ great strike at this time would
be a sad blow TO Astounding pros
perity. It's effects would be felt
everywhere, and would be reflected
in the political course or the people
at coming elections. But the politi-
cal is really minor feature of the
matter. Politics doesn't make pros
perity nearly SO much as prosperity
or the want Of it-makes political
conditions.
