THE RRITINH CRISIS

The serious aud I'm some respects

thoughtful observer must. however. roc
oGnize the fact that il involves one of
the most important constitutional crises
of our times; indeed. of the hast three
quarters Of a century. since the great
reform act. and that is because of the
course Of action which the House Of
Lords seems 10 have deliberately elected
10 pursue. in face Of earnest advice Ia
the contrary from some Of the most
prudent and sympathetic persons in the
kingdom. Down 10 the present time the
question before Parliament and people
has been merely the propriety Of certain
confeSsedly socialistic features Of the
pending finance bill If now tie peers

PTBLTC health SERVICE.

DIR. Walter Wyman i'm n letter 10 the
President has discussed the plan of
establishing national department OF
health. Ii is not known what argu-
ments have been advanced. but no one
could present them more intelligcntly
than the surgeon general of the United
States Public Health and Marine Hospi-
tal Service. Moreover. il is beyond dis
pu;e that some things can he and have
been done more effectually by the fed
eral government than by state boards
of health. The national authorities
have agents in certain foreign ports

such infectious diseases as yellow fever
and cholera. BY the warnings thus af-

ally. too. local authorities find them
selves unable TO cope with an alarming
situation and gladly accept help from
Washington. New Orleans might have
suffered more terribly than she did four
years ago had not the federal govern
ment come 10 the rescue.
The national authorities might go fur
ther than they do with advantage II they
had the necessary money and authority.
Every few years the country is afflicted
with some previously unknown malady.
The recent discovery Of the cause of the
hOOkworm disease by one of the Pub
lie Health Service physicians suggests
the possible result of an investigation
Of the grip" and pellagra. Yet. even if
that feat had been paralleled when the

from the Globe. and that the Globe may
not have stood on the site Of the present
Barclay & Perkins brewery. but on the
opposite side of the street.
Remembering what has stirred biog-
raphers in the past and that a common
tator's blood boils at a lower tempera-
ture than the human. we should have
thought that here was matter for torch
light professions. Iaymen seldom APP
preciate the technical value Of a Shake
speare discovery. This is because they
seldom appreciate the still more tech
niCal value of a commentator to himself.
The layman is likely To complain that
the Illuminating document of Shake
spearian research throws very little light
on Shakespeare. But, to speak tech
nicaTly. that is hardly TO the point.
Shakespeare's private life is not the real
enigma to his biOgraphers. Their chief
problem has always been the problem Of
their own employment In the waste
places of that great but vacant Life"
many man would have gone quite mad
but for document to stay his mind.
The Wallace papers pertain to a suit
brought by one Thoma sina Osteler
against her father. John Hemyngs. the
actor, Shakespeare's lifelong friend,
whom she charges with grave miscon-
duct. Thomasina seems to have been a
rather shady person. but she will have
her scholarly partisans. Others for
Shakespeare's friendships sake. will rally
to John Hemyngs. Thus some new
chapters for the Life" Under the slim
illus OF the Phillips find. said
by experts to he inferior TO this. the
Life" soon grew to a thousand pages.
1t may now run safely to thousand
more, even though the facts could still
be cheaply telegraphed; and since every
chapter in the Life" of Shakespeare is
mainly on some other subject. there is
no reason for excluding ThOmasna. She
