blurred and others hardened and proper
tons were somewhat mixed. It 10 in nc
degree an indictment of the good faith
Of those who were rescued from the sea
to suggest that some Of the versions OF
how the titanic sank are not altogether
trustworthy in all particulars. The sharp
conflicts to be observed between some OF
them is ample proof that not everybody
saw the tragedy in the same light.
There were, Of course, q few who saw
things clearly and who remember them
distinctly and are able to tell OF them
lucidly. But these are exceptional peo-
pie, and even they saw only part OF the
whole. In that terrible time of general
danger peoples interests were IN
tensely personal They were thinking OF
themselves or of those in whom they were
directly concerned or, in the case OF rev
men unaccompanied by members of their
families or close friends, of humanity.
The first thought was preparation Tor es-
cape. Whatever came within the range
of observation was doubtless noticed in
passing, but not studied with any DELHI
ate interest. Maybe there was some
person who was so detached from the
personal influences that swept the decks
of the vessel and who possessed suffi-
cient power of observation to see the
tragedy as a whole and who was
spared to give it to the world. But thus
far he has not appeared. and even II he
were to come forward with his version OF
the disaster it could be at best only an
INCOMPLETE tale.

Wireless Operators on Ships.

Many suggestions have arisen from the
Titanic disaster to the end of making
ocean travel safer, and IL all are adopted
unquestionably the danger of the sea will
be considerably lessened. One point that
has been made in this connection is that
no vessel equipped with wireless should
proceed without the services Of at least
two operators, so that there may be one
man on duty all the time. This is sug-
gested by the fact that the Carpath:a got
word of the Titanic's peril with only a
slender margin of time. The operator
was on the point Of going to bed, was
indeed in the act of taking off his shoes.
when the IS. o. s." call came from the
stricken liner. Ten minutes later and he
might not have heard the summons for
assistance. 1t is reported furthermore
that the Partisan was within fifty miles
Of the Titanic when she struck, a shorter
distance than the Carpathia. and could
have rendered material assistance, and
perhaps increased the number Of the saved.
had she heard the distress call. Her
operator, however, had retired and she
went on her way ignorant Of the peril of
the Titanic.
1t has come to be recognized that the
wireless equipment at sea is an absolute
necessity. 1t is not only protection to
the ship itself, but to every other vessel.
Fast and slow, great and small, first class
and second class, palatial liner and cattle
boat, greyhound and tramp, all are mu-
tually protected by the wireless system.
1t is the law of the sea that any ship in
distress must be helped by the one near
est at hand, no matter what may be the
demands of schedules. The Carpathia, for
an example, was on her way to Gibraltar
with shipload of passengers when she
got the word that the Titanic was In
distress, and she turned back and retraced
her course to New York for the sake
of the survivors whom she picked out OF
the sea. This is cited as an illustration
of the fact that there is an fnterdepend-
ence on the part of every ship which car
ries the wireless apparatus. both for CIV
ing assistance and for receiving it. In
these circumstances 1t is obvious that the
ship that carries only one operator Is
only half protected herself and gives only
half a measure Of protection to others.
AS long as the governments are insisting
upon wireless equipment the system
should be brought to its maximum Of eff
fic.ency by the requirement that each ap-
paratus shall be manned by at least two
operators, so that 1t is serviceable at all
hours of the night or day.

The Cleanup Week.

Although attention has been seriously
distracted by the Titanic horror, Wash
ington has responded splendidly to the
call for general cleaning during the
past six days. The week has been an
entire success in every respect. The
citizens have enlisted in the fight
against dirt in good numbers and with
a determined spirit The authorities
have co-operated vigorously. The stand
ard of household cleanliness has been
raised, and the lesson has been carried
into every part of Washington that dirt
is by no means necessary, but that. on
the contrary, it is needless and danger
Gus.
Now that cleanup week is over, will
Washington Slacken in it's determination
TO be sanitary and spruce? 1t is hardly
to be believed. There may be cases of
backsliding. but any householder who
sees the good effect of thorough
cleaning on his own premises is fairly
sure TO realize that there is no advan-
tage to be gained from spasmodic ef-
forts. After the city has been cleaned
as thoroughly as it has been during
the last week Il is easy to keep i,
clean. Just a little daily thought and
effort will do the work The city sup
plies agencies for the collection of all
sorts OF trash, and means for summon
ing them are readily available. There
is no possible excuse for any going
backward in this respect.
The Star wishes to thank all who have
co-operated with 1t in it's efforts tc
bring Washington to the point of it.
present state of cleanliness. 1t ap,
preciates the readiness with which the
citizens have responded TO it's sugges-
tions. and 1T feels fully rewarded fol-
its endeavors to establish a new stand.
ard Of municipal cleanliness. 1t will
be more than gratified If on this sound
basis the work should be carried OF
permanently until Washington becomes
the cleanest and the most healthful city
in the United States.

The Magnitude of the Tragedy

In all likelihood. a full and detailed
story OF all that happened on the titanic
when she struck an iceberg in mid-ocean
and sank within a few hours will never
be told. The statements made by sur
vivors fill In the major portion Of the
picture, but there will always be missing
parts, and some particulars essential to
a general understanding OF the situation
will never be brought to light. It is to
be remembered that the Titanic was $50
feet in length. 02 feet in beam at
her widest point, 175 feet from the tops
Of her tunnels to her keel and divided
into eleven horizontal sections by decks.
1t is impossible for a complete narrative
Of all that happened In that great space.
so intimately divided and subdivided, to
be written. Taking into account the gen.
eral circumstances, the darkness, the con-
fusion on the decks, the haste Of prep
arations for escape, the imminence Of
mortal peril, 1t Is by no means remarka-
BILE that there should be conflict Of de-
tails. The vessel was long enough to
have reached from the west curbstone
at 9th and F streets to the east curbstone
at 18th and f. Imagine F street crowded
for three blocks with people running back
and forth through doors and gates, up
and down stairs. with the air filled with
terrifying noises and but little illumina-
ton, and 1t Is conceivable how easy 1t
would be to confound the understanding
and how difficult to obtain an INTELLIGENT,
consistent story Of all the circumstances.
In such conditions the imagination Is
highly excited and the truth is not easy
to ascertain. Everything Is magnified and
exa1gerated. Even with what rnjrht h>
called good behavior on the part Of both
passengers and crew there would be ex-
element and fevsrish inability to judge
things correctly. Then when the surviy-
| ors got away from the ship the horror
must have grown upon them. and during
the sad days Of their return on the Car

Progress of q Progressive.

Beware of the courts. Their useful
ness has been greatly impaired by time
and new conditions. Too often or late
years their decisions have been against
the many and in favor Of the few. There
are judges wholly out of touch and SYM
pathy with the great common people, we
must move for radical reforms in that
direction. The bench must be brought
nearer to the popular conception OF
things.
Beware of practicing lawyers. They
are largely responsible for the plight OF
the judges. Nearly all Of the first-class
are in the pay of the interests. Their
constant purpose is to balk the people of
benefits Congress or state legislation may
provide. Experts in the use of techni-
caities, they play the game successfully
before judges who when at the bar them
selves played it.
Beware of politicians. Once, and until
recently, the game of politics attracted
men of high grade and patriotic purpose.
They exerted themselves for the COM
mon veal. Now it is game for scala
ways and grafters. The steam roller has
taken the place of argument. Trickery
In the manipulation of men is at a pre-
MUM. Never before have bosses been
so shameless,y in evidence. Conditions
are such as give all thoughtful and well
intentioned men pause.
There are those who tell you / once

about that. I know more now than l

There are others who tell you that I

Forget it, Listen to me now. l am a

1t is also said with q view to my in
jury that / was at one time something
of a politician myself. and worked the
steam roller skillfully and industriously;
that I consorted with such bosses as
Platt and Quay, and was chummy with
them. i admit it. But that is past. I
have progressed beyond such company
and such practices. I am trying to wipe
out by present professions the whole Of
that unsavory record. Take me, not as

The Vacation Committee.

A meeting was held in this city the
other evening of committee OF men
and women engaged in one of the most
worthy and yet least exploited move
ments for the aid of others. It Is called
the vacation committee. and Its pur-
pose Is to encourage and assist working
girls in Washington to save money for
summer outings. It appears to be neces-
sary to supply the initiative in this mat
ter and to suggest ways and means. But
steadily success is being scored and help
full advice is being given to a growing
heretofore recognized the necessity of
providing for their yearly rest. 1t is es-
sential in this connection to teach truth
that is not perfectly understood, not
alone In the class among which this COM
mittee is working. that some form of an
nual rest is essential to the physical and
mental health Of every person. Too
many regard the vacation as merely a
time Of pleasure, and spend every min
ute of the period in some strenuous form
of diversion that is physically wearying
without being mentally stimulating. There
are vacation processes that are physi-
cally strenuous and at the same time
wholesome, but they are for those who
are engaged in mental labors. For a
girl in a shop. who must be on her feet
most Of the day and whose WEAKNESS is
almost wholly physical. to go to sum-
mer resort and dance and walk almost
continuously is not only a waste Of time
and money, but a serious waste of
strength. The vacation committee is try
ing to teach the girls how best to spend
their outings. how to invest their savings
to the utmost advantage. This is an en-
terprise in which every employer should
be interested to the point Of cooperation,
for upon the welfare of their workers in
large measure depends their own pros
pertty.

The Picture Girl.

Oh. the picture girl. she is fair to see,
With a wondering, wide-eyed stare,
And the dress with the curious flagree
And her spiderweb-like hair.
She has a nose like no other nose
That ever was known to tilt;
And the garments she wears from neck
to toes
Are the strangest ever built.
She looks like q creature of wearied
nerves,
And q measurement reveals
That her length OF limb with those
curious curves,
IL six feet, from waist to heels
And when you glance at Maria Jane,
With her. smile and her simple curl.
You silently offer thanks again
That she isn't a picture girl.
