the others, which largely concern the
administrative features of the pro-
posed law. 1t affects the size of the
annuities, which the Commissioners be-
lieve are too large in the .Gallinger
bill. 1t is provided that teachers shall
be retired on annuities equal to six
tenths of their salaries. In operation,
this would probably mean that practi-
cally all persons retired would get
81 200 a year. There is good reason for
the Commissioners belief that no bill
providing such annuities could be
passed in the House, and that it is
doubtful whether such a bill could be
passed in the Senate. This being true,
it would seem to be the part of wis
dom to reduce the amount of the an
nuities, as otherwise the efforts of the
teachers, the Board of Education, and
members of Congress interested in the
legislation might be wasted.
The Commissioners declare emphat-
ically in favor of the principle of re-
tirement of public school teachers, and,
presumably, may be counted on to use
their influence for the passage of a
bill conforming to the ideas they ex-
press in their comment on the Gal
linger measure. When their help is
added to the movement, and when the
District committees learn the local con-
ditions that make retirement legisla-
tion necessary to the economy and ef-
ficiency of the school system, there
ought to be little further, difficulty in
bringing about the enactment of the
law.

CRITICISM OF TEACHERS RE.
TIREMENT BILL

When analyzed and given careful
consideration, the Commissioners criti-
cisms of the public school teachers re-
tirement bill do not seem to be par
ticularly alarming. Some of them, in
fact, are excellent, and should be given
attention by the District Committees
in the construction of the bill finally
placed before Congress for approval.
Four objections to the Gallinger bill
as it stands are made by the Commits
sioners. The first concerns the pro-
posed retiring board, to be composed
of three members of the Board of Edu-
cation, the superintendent, the assistant
superintendent, and nine teachers. The
Commissioners make the wise sugges-
tion that the board be composed OF
persons who will have no direct, per,
sonal interest, through hope of promo.
tion, in the retirement of any teacher
or other officer or employe.'" The sec,
ond objection is to the provision by
which teachers still capable of render,
ing efficient service could be retired
The Commissioners again make a good
suggestion in their recommendation
that any person able to do efficient
work be retained on active duty.
The third criticism is directed at the
means for creating that part of the
retirement fund that comes from the
public Treasury. The Gallinger bill
provides for indefinite contributions
from fees paid by nonresident pupils
from unexpended balances in the teach.
ers' salary fund, and from other unre.
liable sources. The recommendation OF
the Commissioners that the fund be
established by specific appropriations
for that purpose is good. The expense
to the Government and the District
would be the same under either plan
but that of the Commissioners is more
businesslike and economical.
The Commissioners fourth objection
is the most important, and will prob
ably cause more discussion than any OF

INSURGENTS SEEK
TO PUT DEMOCRATS
IN HOLE ON TARIFF
Sides in Bitter Struggle for
Control in the
Senate. ,
VOTE WOULD RUIN
CAMPAIGN ISSUE
Democrats Playing Regulars and
Insurgents Against Each
Other.

Are the Senate insurgents going to
be able to put the Senate Democrats in
hole and compel them TO vote to
amend the reciprocity agreement with
general tariff revision, or will the Demo-
Gratis remain masters of the Senate
situation and coalesce with the regular
Republicans or insurgents?
The Democrats have set out to play
the insurgents against the regulars and
the regulars against the insurgents.
The question is whether they are go-
ing to be able TO carry out their pro-
gram.
The Democratic plan is to go just far
enough with tariff revision TO leave that
question an issue in the 1912 campaign.
The insurgents want general revision
put through Congress and out of the
way as a 1912 campaign issue.
Just at present 1t looks as il the
Democrats had got the Republicans of
the Senate split, and were going TO
steer the course of tariff matters for
the rest of the session as they see fit.
But there are two sides to the story,
and 1t will not do to bank on this too
thoroughly.
Insurgents May Master.
1t may turn out that the insurgents
will in the long run be the masters.
and will shape the course of tariff leg
islation. At any rate, they purpose TO
put UP one Of the greatest fights they
have ever made.
They intend to convince the Senate,
If they can, that the only way to get
general tariff revision now is TO pass
a single bill including reciprocity and
general revision. They say President Taft
will have TO sign such d bill If 1t passes
They say any other course will result In
no legislation save the passage OF rect-
procity. They intend to take the posi-
ton that The only way the farmer can
get a square deal is by tying up reci-
procity with revision. and that II the
Democrats refuse to stand for this they
will, in effect, be giving the farmers the
worst Of it for the sake of trying td
keep the tariff in politics.
It will be a great struggle and the in-
surgents say they will win out or dis+
credit the Democrats.
Probability of Uniting.
One of the possibilities of the tangled
situation in the Senate is that the
Republicans will unite in a general
movement for revision Of important
schedules, leaving the Democrats high
and dry. Senator Jones of Washington
has been doing missionary work to this
end. But thus far he has not met with
enough encouragement to make 1t ap"
pear az all probable the plan can be
put through. Such action would serve,
II legislation were enacted. TO remove
| the tariff issue from the 1912 campaign.
| That is, it would do so If the legisla1
ton were not a mere makeshift. But
| the old guard on the Republican side,
apparently, intends to fight of revision

| onen mind about earnestly graphing at

MISS PEARSON IS
AMBITIOUS FOR TRY
AS LADY MACBETH
Vagabond's Star Thinks She
Could Fill Shakespearean
Role.

Virginia Pearson, a member of the
Belasco Stock Company, The Vagabonds,
would like to play Lady Macbeth. Miss
Pearson is well satisfied she could eive
a creditable performance OF that role.
1T is apparent" says Miss Pearson,
That if one does not feel satisfied one
could play a big role, nobody else Is
likely to think so. Actors chose i'm
portant parts they think they can play,
and then go about to finI som. body
who will agree with them, and give
them the chance. Nobody asked Edwin
Boorr to impersonate Hamlet. He de-
C.GCd that matter for himself The
same is true of Mansfield.
Usually the actor is laughed at for
announced that he would appear as
Hamlet, certain persons advised him
not to think of it.
Next week Miss Pearson will have her
first chance to appear in a Shakespedr-
"an role. She is TO impe.sonate Portia
In The Merchant of Venice" This
role is miles away from anything she
has been seen in here. couple Of
years ago she appeared here with the
Shubert Producing Company, in stock,
time she had not convinced any mana
ger that she could do anything else
than wishy-washy ingnnue.
1t was the occasion OF surprise, there
fore. last season when Robert HillIard
came here in "A Fool There Was" and
Virginia Pearson was discovered as ca ST
for the role of the Vampire. Her per-
formanCe of that trying role was very
favorably commented Oh. Many ac-
tresses had been called upon to enact
this role, and ii was not It'll Miss Pear
son had chance at it hat Mr.. Hill
Hard was satisfied. So It is that this
young actress plays the Vampire next
season, and when Mr.. Hilliard puts on
his new play Miss Pearson will create
an important role.
But Lady Macbeth is her highest
hope.

BOYS, BE THANKFUL,
SAYS IAN OLD BOY

To the Editor of THE TINES:
A few days ago the following ap-
peared in an article in The Times,
concerning the doings of the Senate
favorably reported.
A bill to prevent the flying of kites,
fire balloons, or parachutes in the
limits of the District was ordered un-
fatc:a ;ly reported
In one instance at least those who
would deprive the boys of Washing
ton of their every pleasure have not
had their way.
They have taken from him his
Fourth of July celebration and made
the "day we celebrate" seem a tame
affair to the usual Sunday. While a
middle-aged man, am still boy
enough to see things the same way
as Frank G. Campbell in his article
in Thursdays Times. and 1t does not
seem we are alone in our views, from
the lack of interest taken in the
Fourth of July fund from year TO
year. l used to spend several dollars
for a fireworks display each year, but
being forced by certain people to give
up that display, do object to giving
that amount to those persons for
holding a celebration in which they
carry of the honors as being the
patriotic and public spirited. citizens.
Those who caused this great change
should foot up the bills. Interest in
this public celebration which started
off two years ago with a big hurrah,
is waning. so that at the present rate
in a year or two no interest whatever
will be taken in this event.
So thanks to our Commissioners and
those in sympathy with them, Inde-
pendence Day will soon become like
Washington's Birthday. once greatly
cele brated in the city named for him.
but now a holiday in name only.
So. boys, be thankful that the priv
ilege of flying your kites has not been
taken from you as yet. but enjoy
yourself while you may. for their are
those who will take away from you
every conceivable amusement If they
can find the way to do so.
