VOTE TODAY ON MERGER OF
TRADE BODIES.

Attention. Mr. Member of the Board
of Trade and Mr.. Member of the
Chamber of Commercei
Have you sent in your ballot on
consolidation?
If not, do it today. Take your pen
in hand at once and write your answer
TO the query of the volunteer com
mittee OF four members of both bodies
who have invited the rank and file to
express its opinion.
You should have received a letter
from that committee this morning. If
you haven't found it yet hunt around
on your desk for it; 60 through your
mail again and dig it up. Read it
carefully and then fill out the blanks
on the back of the postal card that is
enclosed with it, and mail the card.
Whether you are for or against
merger of the Chamber of Commerce
and the Board of Trade, vote. An ex-
preston of opinion from every member
of both bodies is essential. When it
is obtained and tabulated, it will be
possible to determine, once and for all,
whether the individual members of
both bodies want to get together.
At this juncture The Times wants
to offer a word of advice, sincerely an
vigorously. 1t wants to urge you most
oornnctl,- 10 rata
The Times is vitally interested in
Washington and is vitality concerned in
Washington's advancement. 1t believes
Washington will advance by huge
bounds if the merger of these two
trade organizations can be affected. 1t
believes it is to YOUR interest to vote
for consolidation; whatever benefits
Washington is bound to benefit you.
Washington's activities for indus
trial, commercial, civic, and social bet
terment are exercised largely through
the Board of Trade and the Chamber
of Commerce. These activities, effective
in spite of the handicap of duplicated
machinery, would be immensely more
effective if exercised through one great,
smoothrunning, widely representative
organization.
If the individual members of the
Board of Trade and the Chamber of
Commerce express themselves now in
favor of consolidation, consolidation
will come speedily. With that senti-
ment behind the movement already
started among the officers and directors
of both bodies, actual unification would
follow Immediately.
Every reasonable argument is on
the side of consolidation; not one rea-
sonable argument stands against it.

FOUR THINGS BADLY NEEDED
IN DISTRICT.

Before the District can render adequate
social service TO meet existing condi,
| tions its facilities must he increased
by the addition of four new institu,
tions: A municipal hospital, an in
ebriate hospital, a reformatory for
white girls, and new municipal lodg
ing house
Every one of these is badly needed
Lack of facilities which they provide
has seriously crippled the District in
the past, and the demand for them is
becoming more and more imperative
every year. The District already has a
municipal lodging house-which was do
nated-but it is much too small TO
meet the demands placed upon it. In
the winter it is sometimes necessary
to turn people away, and those who
are accommodated are badly crowded.
The District now has no place to
send inebriates except to the work
house or to the insane hospital. They
should be sent to neither, but to an
institution especially equipped for their
treatment.
The need of municipal hospital has
become exceedingly acute in the last
few years. At present sick people who
have to be cared for at public expense
are sent to private hospitals, which
receive subsidies for this service. This
is an unbusinesslike arrangement and
should be terminated as soon as pos
sible. There can be no doubt that more
satisfactory results could be obtained
at less expense if the District operated
it's own hospital and looked after it's
afflicted dependents itself.
The same condition obtains as to
the care of incorrigible white girls.
They are placed in private institutions,
over which the District has little. or
no jurisdiction. The more economical,
more ethical method would be to estab-
lish and maintain a District reforma-
tory, operated by District employees
under the control of the District Com
missioners.
The new House District Committee,
which is displaying commendable in
terest in the welfare of the District,
would find it worth while to give
serious attention to these four ques-
tions. The social interests of the COM
munity should not be overlooked in a
consideration of District needs that is
all too likely to be devoted to such
material improvements as paving,
parks, street lighting, school buildings,
and fire engines. .

sist the temptation to make off with
anything from a peekaboo shirt waist
to the controlling interest in a rail
road. They are forever embarrassing

ing jury trials study in psychology.
The young woman who has become
the subject of the interesting expert
ment out in Oakland was born in the
State of West Virginia, although no
boasts are made of the fact in the
prospectus sent out by the Board of
Trade of her native town. As the re-
suit of fall she became very way
ward young person, and in the course
of her wayfaring wandered West. The
delicious insouciance with which she
walked off with whatever struck her
fancy was almost worth the price of
the article. She never gave thought
to the trite little warnings such as:
He who takes what isn't hisn
Is mighty apt to land In prison.
The surgeons found that her skull
had thickened in a certain spot and
that the incidental pressure on the
brain was responsible for her confusion
OF property rights. They have operated
to relieve the pressure, and the world
looks on with interest and anxiety.
In the very nature of things it would
have to be very delicate operation.
If, for example, the skull we're pared
away too much the kleptomaniac might
become very prodigal. The courts
would be called upon to intervene to
prevent her from dissipating her estate.
This is a point which will have to be
studied very carefully in considering
surgery as a cure for the embezzlement
disease. II this brand is snatched from
the burning. however, and it becomes
to operate on the victims
of the disease whenever they are
caught, the scalpel. in Its capacity as
moral agent, will be the busiest instru-

The Washington times., 1911-04-17
THE FULL SIGNIFICANCE OF
INTERVENTION.

For once there is encouraging ground
for doubt whether the American people
are prepared to give unanimous appro-
val to war of conquest. The Mexican
war OF two generations ago and the
Spanish war of 1898 certainly are not
precedents filed with announcement
for this view. But the expressions of
sentiment which come up from the
whole land leave room for strong hope
that the lingo sentiment which once
ruled is at least greatly weakened as
a result of our experiment in ruling
the former colonies of Spain.
If intervention is forced upon us; il
an American army has to be sent across
the border to safeguard life and prop
erty-then it may be set down as
wellnigh certain that this country will
have Mexico on its hands for decades.
Perhaps it might be frankly annexed;
perhaps it would become a new and
greater Cuba. involving us in all the
responsibilities of suzerainty and Civ
ing none of the effective powers of
actual sovereignty. Perhaps, again. it
would place Mexico in posture of
suspension, hoping for the day of free
dom. vaguely assured of the posi-
bility of its ultimate attainment-and
yet all the time, like the Philippines.
burdening this nation with taxes.
weakening it for defense, compelling it
to take place in the international
armament race, and mcnacing it with
endless international complications.
Annexation means, some day, asst
and representation. This ma
tion cannot undertake Rome's role of
the imperial republic. Our institutions
are not fitted for that part We must
avoid that role, or prepare for adapta
ton of our institutions to it.
Today we are face to face with this
choice. Do we want to work out our
great governmental experiment or to
drop il and undertake a career of
imperialism, glory, extravaganza. cor
ruption, and decadence? That is the
question which farseeing men read be-
tween the lines of the reports from
Mexico City, Juarez Chihuahua, Aqua |
Prieta; from our own State Depart
nent and War Office
Small wonder that the Administra-
tion hesitates to take the decisive step
which events seem determined to force
upon it.
