Rojas' latest exploit OF looting the

ATTACK ON ROOSEVELT
AT MASONIC MEETING

To the Editor of THE TIMES.
read in Tuesday mornings edition
of a Washington paper, where at an
assembly of Masons In Georgetown,
member of Congress took the oppor-
tunity to introduce politics, and make
rabid attack on Mr.. Roosevelt.
/ am not a Mason. but have always
understood that one of the principle
foundations was never TO interfere with
a mans religion or his politics, but even
If l am !nistaken 1t seems to me a
mighty i'll chosen assembly TO deliver
political TRADE. 1t is n very curious
thing to see how the newspapers and
politicians are arrayed against Roosc-
Welt, and the majority of the people in
all sections support him. In this very
same newspaper | read the summary
of a poll taken in cities East and West
and Mr.. Rooscvelts name leads all
the rest; in fact, he received 122, 600
votes, and his nearest rival 20,00O;
whereas, IN the press gallery of the
House. a large majority were against
him.
We always read that the great motto
of Masonry is brotherly love, and I
believe that It is true. and that the
politician making such a break, is sim
ply an irresponsible talking machine
with very little experience in politics
or Masonry. Z. f. =.

THE GOVERNMENT THAT CAN'T.

Cant is too often the motto of cant. There is
endless iteration of demand that the law shall be
sustained, order enforced, property protected, and
human rights preserved
But when all this cant is focused on the necessity
for dealing with particular situation the answer all
too often is cant"
There is a particular situation right now at Law
renee, Mass. Congress is talking about whether it
can do anything; the Attorney General is consider
ing it; the National Administration trembles at
thought of making Lawrence the Homestead of 1912.
But after weeks Of the continuing outrages Of the
Lawrence strike, after the loung of law the beating
up of helpless women, the denial Of the most ele-
mental rights to great population the imposition
of false mprsonmen-af all this for weeks past,
the only answer of Massachusetts or the nation is
Cant"
But the factory owners who run Lawrence, who
control its bankruped and autocratic administration,
Can" THEY can. They do precisely as they
like as their narrow view Of selfish interest dictates
to them.
1t is State question, we are assured; one in
which the National Government must not interfere; /;
Massachusetts, must care for its own.
The nation cannot interfere to make law effective
within State; but how easy for it to interfere to
make the States law INEFFECTIVE! Just little
time ago the Supreme Court decided that the pro-
hibton law of Southern State could not keep
liquor out of dry districts il it imported from
another State in interstate commerce.!
States rights" is good excuse on either side.
1t prevents the enforcement Of order in Massachu-
setts it protects the violation Of law in Georgia.
And our crudely unprotected dual system
serves the lawbreaker on both sides.
Il believe in States rights" said Senator Kenyon
in an address recently, "and when State DEGREES
that the saloon must 60, do not believe that the
Federal Government should enter partnership with
the liquor traffic to break down the States law"
The Senator is right The Federal Government
ought to have power to enforce Iawfuness in Massa-
chusets, if need be; it ought not to have power to
protect lawlessness in Georgia. At present is on
the wrong side in both places.

ASKS WHY SHOULD

In Colonel Greene's TRADE against
New York women. he said that chill

shouldn't children be the very last
thing any woman should want in this
world, since 1t pleases the fathers of
children to place every temptation con-
ceivable before them-saloons, gam

pangs of death, and often death itself,

hearts blood raising them to maturity,
and then must stand by. and either see
them literally go to hell through the
doors of these dog-holes, or else worry
the life out of herself fearing they will
do so. Yes. why should they want
children since men do so much to de-
stroy those they bear? And, until men
clean up this world of said dog-holes,

HON. "CY" CUMMINGS MAKES
STATEMENT TO PUBLIC
the Editor Of THE TIMES:

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
Inasmuch as the proposed automobile
law affecting Washington has been d
source Of controversy between the auto
mobile commissioner, Mr.. Mark, and
myself, I deem it fair to state my posi-
tioh clearly in this matter.
At the outset / wish to state that my
effort is in behalf of the motorists OF
Washington, d. c. and its suburbs.
There has been some misunderstanding
as regards the automobile law for the
State of Maryland, inasmuch as l can
not find, after careful examination
anything in the law that would give the
automobile commissioner authority 10
appoint a deputy in Washington, nor
can find anything in the law that re-
quires an affidavit on all application.
7, therefore, do not see how Mr.. Mark.
the alleged deputy in Washington, has
authority TO charge fee for the issuing
of these licenses. In a statement given
20 the press by the automobile commits 3
sioner he states that Mr.. Mark simply
charges a notary fee and that he had
entered into a contract with Mr.. Mark
whereby that gentleman paid the state
$500 for the privilege. Mr.. Mark states
that this office does not pay him, yet IL
would appear that he is willing to give
$500 for the privilege. l Will leave the
motorists of Washington, D. C., to judge
for themselves where the snake In this
proposition lies.
I, therefore, propose to introduce a
measure that will give to the motorists
and convenience of securing their Mary
land licenses without the additional cost
Of so cents per application.

COMPULSORY VACCINATION
ON BATTLESHIP VERMONT

To the Editor OF THE TINES:
The country has just been shocked to
hear that 200 men on the battIeship
Vermont have been placed in irons and
inoculated for typhoid against their
wills. They are to be tried also for
mutiny Thereby hangs a tale JUST at
this time for the whole American peo-
pie. The doctors OF tho allopathic
school have the say on medical matters
IN the army and navy. They now want
jurisdiction also over the whole people.
II they get It. through the passage OF
the Children's Bureau bill. as a begin
ner. and through the Owen bill for a
national department Of health, then
every man. woman and child in the
land will be just as much under official
medical orders as were the men on the
Vermont.
Just the other day Homer Folks, of
New York, came out in a call for med
ical service by the state to the people.
In II the doctors would be paid by the
state, exactly as are the public school
teachers, and the service would be on a
par with the compulsory education sys-
tenn. What that is for the young, the
medical service would be for all. The
whole would be an application of prac-
teal state Socialism.
Before these things go any further, it
is time for the people TO wake up and
take notice. The first thing to note Is
the Senators who voted for the Chill
dren's Bureau bill, and the next thing
to do is to call on the members Of the
House Labor Committee to shun their
example and save the people.

TAMA JIM's CHEESE BULLETIN.

The Merry Monarch did not knight a certain steak
as Sir Lon as some of our leading word books once
taught US, for the simple reason that the surloin
was known and esteemed long before King Charles
or his house TO the throne. But it may we'll be
said that Tama Jim acting on the expert advice of
Dr. Langworthy and Miss Caroline Hunt, has en-
nobled the cheese and assigned to it a high rank
among the foodstuffs of the world.
The recent bulletin issued by the Agricultural
Department would have justified itself simply in
dispelng the ancient superstition that cheese is
indigestble and therefore should be taken as an
auxiliary to more pretentous dishes rather than
the basis of square meal. 1t is pointed out the
result of extensive experiments that cheese is easily
and thoroughly dgested; does not cause any physio-
logical disturbances and is we'll calculated to keep
the body in vigor and health.
That il may be used a substitute for meat
is readily seen when we are told that cheese has
nearly twice much nutriment, weight for weight,
as beef of average composition, while its fuel value
is twice as great. From an economical point of view
il may very properly be used at least to vary the
menu without diminishing the food value Of meal.
In an earlier and larger work the department has
described two hundred and fifty varieties of cheese,
but Bulletin 487 on Cheese and Its Economical Uses
in the Diet" adequately describes those best known,
many of which are now made in America.
And to this is added list of dishes which may
be prepared from cheese which is distinct contribu-
ton to culinary literature and the abundant joy
of life The pimiento and cheese roast shoulders the
Roman gnocchi; the cheese croquettes and fried
cheese balls are enough to awaken an appetite in
those whose aded paates most difficult to please.
Even the cheese pastries-the relshes and the GUS
tards and wafers-throw new light on this staple
article of diet which has been under suspicion only
too long The uninformed may here learn that the
strong odor of certain cheeses does not arise from
what is chemically decay, but is simply result of
fermentation, and many other wholesome truths are
set forth in this brochure Of forty pages which the
public would do we'll to digest The scientific expert
mentalists have rendered a high service to their
grateful countrymen.
