though for the moment Ii may not ap-

PENDING PENSION MEASURE

TO the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: Your recent pleas for econony on
the part OF Congress meet with the hearty
approval Of your readers You criticisa
some features Of the river and harbor hill
and strike at the eighteen superiuous pen
sion agencies and at private pension bills
VIII you not give a square blow to the
Dill OF Representative Prince, which. with
other grants. virtually gives every ninety
day man Of the Civil War $50 a month?
The bill is very carefully worded: Whose
physical or mental condition ia of s11cb do
gree Of disability as to require the frequent
and periodical aid and attention Of another
person" Any one in the sixties with a
little rheumatism might get under cover
OF this requirement The estimated cost
! the first year is more than Sc, 0Oo zoe. but we
have often seen how pension estimates have
been left out OF sight by results
We are forty-hve years distant from the
end OF the Civil War, and have already
paid over $500, 100000 i'll pensions in conse-
quence Of it 1t does seem that pension
appropriations should be somewhat like the
law Of gravitatfon. which varies inyerselv
as the square Of the distance from, the
centre of the earth. The peculiar law or
pensions. however. is that at three times
the distance from the end OF the war the
annual appropriation is three times as
great. In 1880. fifteen years after the Civil
War ended. pensions were about SO. 900 O0e
Now, forty-tive years after, they ara mora
| than s15o.oo0Oo0
! lf we go on making laws at this late ds Y
which will add $4,000 900 or so at a time
why may not the annual sum run upward
| toward 500. 100000? And vet forty thousand
veterans dying annually make the thin
ming ranks of which We have heard much
| for years.
Surely the time has come for diminution
not increase. in appropriations. President
Taft expects 1t; so do the people Pension
laws, general or private, should not be re-
garded by Congressman simply as stepping
stones 10 popular favor. They should be
based on reason and should be Just to the
nation as well as generous to veterans

CANAL TERETNAL PLANS.


The progress which is being made on
the barge canal. with its promise thai
in few years the inland water borne
commerce of this city will be greatly
increased. gives a certain timeliness Io
the discussion of plans for tidewate5
terminal for the canal system. It is too
obvious TO need argument that upon
the adequacy of that terminal in capac.
ity and in situation. viii largely d.
pend the prosperity Of the canals and
the worth of the vast and costly under
taking upon which the state is now en-
gagged. The elaborate and expensive
docks and basins which have been con
structed at many inland cities of Eu-
rope. such as Manchester, Cologne
Duisburg, Paris and others, indica Re
the keen realization Of the necessity Of
such facilities for commerce and sug-
gest in some measure what may be
reeded at this port.
The question Of locality is perhaps
the most important. In considering IL
few fundamental principles are to be
kept in mind. One is readiness of &C
cess from the canals, or from the Hud-
son River which forms the tidewater
part of the canal system. The shores Of
that river are already too much occu-
pied TO furnish a canal terminal. and
its waters. especially along the lower
part Of Manhattan Island. are TOO
crowded with other shipping TO make
il desirable for fleets of canalboats IL

canal leads off from the Hudson Riy 81
down the Harlem and thus to the deep
wafer of the head of Long Island
Sound. The suggestion has frequently
been made, and is worthy of careful
consideration that the traffic of the
canals should be diverted in that direc-
ton and that the needed terminal
should be somewhere in the neighbor-
hood Of Port Morris, where barges
from the canals and the greatest ocean
liners could lie in safety side by side
Another suggestion has arisen in con-
rection with Commissioner Tomkins'
report Cd Jamaica Bay. that the latter

canal fleets. access 10 be had by way

the cost would be repaid in additional
advantages over the Port Morris ter

tage might be found TO lie with Port
Morris. For It is just as accessible as
Jamaica Bay for the cean-going ships
which the canalboats would want 10

C0LLEGB GL4DT4TORE.

President Lowell Of Harvard is per-
fectly correct in saying apropos of foot
ball: The ultimate object to be kept in
mind. in every kind of intercollegiate
contest. is that it ought to be the cul-
limitation Of general sport pursued ny
large bodies of undergradua ties. If this
'is not SO: if. instead of being the best
"of many athletes selected from among
''other players and brought to greater
perfection, the members Of the team are
'enga ged in a sport which no one else
plays for fun, then fhe teams become
trained bands of gladiators maintained
solely for public contests against SINH
"lar bands from other colleges The
origin of intercollegiate sports and the
ideal Of intercollegiate sports are that the
games should he taken part in by many
o. the students for their own sake ana
that the best players of a given game in
one university should meet and contest
with the best players of some other in
stitution- Tried by this standard. foot

iatorial" contest Football is not played
for its own sake by a large numD L of
students.
But. even equatorial as ii is. it is
probable that football has served a use
full purpose in developing sports and ath-
letics in American colleges. The enthu-
siasm which It has aroused has done
much TO spread the interest in outdoor
sports and in the development of physi-
cal health among American students.
II &c 70 hoa al e., 70
remember the time when gymnasiums
were rare among all but the larger and
richer American institutions. and when
the appreciation Of the necessity Of ex-
ercise and physical development was
slight. The love of outdoor sports and
athletic exercise may possibly be now
so surely implanted in American college
life that they would be followed in
wholesome degree for their own sake
without interest being stimulated by
gladiatorial spectacles, but it was not
always so.

IN one Of the regular appropriation Dlils
Some fear hiss been expressed that
provision defining afresh the powers OF
the present board viii be subject 10 a
point OF order as "neS legislation" But
we do not believe that 1t will run much
risk OF az adverse ruling on that ground.
The somewhat vague wording OF the
present law gives the members of the
board wide powers, since they are re-
quired TO assist the officers of the gov
eminent IN the administration of the
customs laws" The Payne law in It's
administrative section authorizes the
customs officers to ascertain the value OF
dutiable merchandise shipped 10 this
country whenever they are not satisfied
with the valuations declared by the i'm
porters. 1t also requires them in certain
cases TO ascertain the domestic value
Of similar articles. II would be legiti-
mate. therefore. to reduce to clearer
terms the functions of the board of ex-
perts. while voting the appropriation
needed TO continue their work.
1t is not highly important what tech
nical form the authorization takes at this
session, so long as the investigation
really gets under way. The country is
looking for results and will welcome
them whether they are obtained by Il
particular sort Of agency or some other
sort. The Tribune would be glad to see
tariff commission established on as
secure aud permanent a basis as the
Interstate Commerce Commission. So
long as the nation applies the principle
of protection II will need trustworthy
information for use In graduating tariff
rates. Such commission will probably
be created soon-as soon as the leaders
in Congress fully understand the pur-
pese of the country 10 insist on a scien-
tif1c arrangement of duties. instead of
the Bit or miss distribution of protection
hitherto tolerated. Tt may or may not
he eypedient to alter the status Of the
Tariff Board at this session. But the
board will surely find its powers en-
| larged and its tenure made more secure
as soon as If gives evidence of capacity
to do its highly important work.
