their lives for the same cause as did
the Presidents military aide-that
women and children might live. Mr..
Moore and Mr.. Millet have figured as
prominently in affairs which have made
this nation what 1t is, as did Major
Butt. Mr. Woody, VINO occupied a
more humble and less conspicuous posi-
ton in life, stayed by the ship Just as
bravely as anyone else. While Major
Butt and his associates were in the
limelight, theoretically. saving women
and children, Mr.. Woody was below
decks trying to save the property OF
his Government, and which was intrust-
ed to his care, as was his duty.
An injury Is being done Major Butt
by excessive publicity, at the expense
of the other three Washingtonians who
went down with the steamer. Major

tionate space accorded his death, fear

FINDS NO FAULT
WITH MR.. ISMAY

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
We have probably all heard that
INSTRUMENTATION is the first law OF ma
ture." also that Life Is a case of the
survival of the fttest." and yet, ever
since the dreadful disaster which over
took the Titanic, the papers of this
country have given much space to IL
rades against Bruce Ismay. who; fol-
lowing his natural dictates, was guilty
of saving himself from watery grave,
and prolongtng his usefulness on this
earth.
The persons finding fault with Ismay
accuse him of cowardice. yet most of
those making such accusations have
never been In danger. nor suffered any
hardships or priyations, and are there
fore unable to tell just what a man
would be likely to do when in danger
OF death.
Some of the ladies who have been
saved owing to the bravery (O of some
other men who were on the ship at the
time. have spent their time since arriv-
ing IN this country in finding fault with
Ismay, yet so far as an intelligent per-
son can find from reading the facts in
the case, the only crime of which Ismay
has been guilty Is saving himself. He
killed no one In so doing, and yet re-
turning to elementary principles he
would have been justified in so doing.
Does It not take more real courage for
man to survive such a disaster than
to die in 1t? Very respectfully.

ELKS' FESTIVAL TO

Tonight Expected to Bring

Tonight the Elks' spring festival
at the Elks' home, on II street,
comes to a close. Samuel Richards,

evening of the carnival. One OF the
features will be the auctioning Off Of a
great number Of articles given the fes-
tival by local merchants.
Attendance figures tonight are ex-
pected to be broken. The Elks are
looking for 5000 people, 1000 having paid
the place visit last night.
In the midst Of the merrymalxing last
evening John ]. Noonan, a local Elk,
came In bringing with him twenty Eng
lish sailors, survivors Of the Titanic

OUR GOVERNMENTS LAXITY.

Uncle Sam, it appears while investigating the
blackness of the British maritime pot, has some
dingy kettles of his that would bear furnishing
up bit. The discovery that no transport in the
service of the United States makes any pretense to
carrying enough lifeboats to save EVEN HALF of
the boats capacity in passengers, suggests some
houseceaning at home.
To say this is not to criticse the Senates inquiry
into the Titanic affair. That inquiry is going to be
Of great value and on the whole it is being carried
on in the right way. But the fact remains that our
army transports prove to be no better provided with
fesaving facilities than the Titanic; and it is
condition that must not be permitted to continue
Uncle Sam has bad habit of neglecting his most
intimate responsibilities.
We pass safety appliance laws for railroads, but
permit mail clerks to work-and be killed-in coap-
sible cars that have no chance in wreck
We demand factory inspection, fre-escapes, ETC.

good and sufficient provision of this sort.
We attempt rigdly to enforce sanitary conditions
by stretch of the commerce clause to make it reach

Government workshop in this town that would pass

NEGLECTED OPPORTUNITIES.

Opportunity coming to the door in the middle of

welcomed.
Opportunity ringing the door-bell fifty times
day is apt to be turned away as a nuisance.
Every man neglects opportunities Every man
who lives in Washington neglects more of them than
IL he lived elsewhere for the sufficient reason that
there are more of them here to neglect.
But perhaps the one most neglected is the Library

FOR DUMB ANIMALS

TO the Editor of THE TIMES
II will be everlasting glory to Con-
gressman John II. Rothermel of Penn
sylvania to investigate the cruelties in
fiicted upon the dumb beasts here In
Washington. and I ask all lovers of
Gumb animals to petition him to push
this matter. We have our heroes in
war and peace, but II ever there is a
hero 1t Is the man who upholds the
dumb animals. The following matters
would show up what the citizens have
to contend with here.
First-The Police Court and its sys-
TENS.
Second-The cruelties on dumb beasts.
Third-The hours, salary, and the Sc
cret workings of the House Owners
Association.
Fourth-What the Humane Society
has to contend with.
Fifth-Tae hearing will produce star
tling facts: and then we will know
where and who to place the blame on,
and not until the Congress of the
United States investigates this matter
will / cease to try and abolish these
abuses. Many thanks to The Times for
Its great work. ANIMALS FRIEND.

WANTS MEMORIAL TO
BE WIDELY USEFUL

To the Editor OF THE TINES:
We are asked to subscribe for a stat
ue to one OF these illustrious heroes
that brave soldier. Major Butt, who was
privileged to die SO glorious a death.
OF course, we will subscribe; but wh,
a useless statue?
Are we going to follow In the foot
steps of Paris and put statues at every
turn (more or less) and eighty more a
building? The city Is overfull of statues
now. and many of them could we'll be
spared, from an artistic point Of view.
Why not put the money that is raised
in a memorial that will render service
commensurate with the tremendous sac
rlfice of heroic lives, brave and un-
afraid in the face of death? Instead
of a statue, I would suggest the endow-
ing OF seashore home for mothers
and children, or a convalescent home
for mothers and children, or a country
home, or a fresh-air fund. Subscrip-
tions devoted TO such an object would
accomplish two ends-do honor to tho
illustrious memory of our brave dead
and help the unfortunate widows and
fatherless children over the troubled
waters of this life.
Very truly yours,

If either the locomotive engineers or the railways

"TOM" sHIPP FOR CONGRESS.

Thomas R. Ship, secretary Of the National Con-

candidate for Congress in the Indianapolis district,
both factions, it is reported being practically agreed
in his support.
Mr.. Shipp is a splendid type of the man intelligent
constituencies ought to be seeking for Congressional
service. He knows all about it. AS secretary to
Senator Beveridge, to Clifford Pinchot, and to the
conservation movement he has dealt for years most
intimately with the problems Congressman must
handle He has the equipment and the right point
Of view He knows Government business and
methods.
He is an expert in several departments of highly
important Government affairs He knows the conser-
walton, forestry, water power, and other related
phases of public affairs. And Congress needs moth
ing so much as men capable of bringing it expert
advice and information.
