AS TO TRANSFERRING CARS.

The idea Of interchanging car service on the
street railway lines, and making up the shortest and
most convenient possible routes by using the tracks
of different companies may seem at first suggestion
decidedly drastic. The proposal, it is under
sideration by the Public Utilities Commission, is
understood to be alternative to the free transfer
program.
In tine early days of steam railroadng, roads were
built Of various gauges, with great variations in the
types of cars and locomotives. 1t was not always
possible to send the of road to the tracks
of another. Moreover, the idea of doing such a
thing did not even occur to anybody for a con-
siderable period. Each company used its own cars
exclusively, hauling freight to the end of its line,
and then, if it to 60 farther, transferring to the
cars of connecting company. That plan involved
expense delay, and difficulty that finally over
by the expedient of standardzing track gauges
and letting cars be sent wherever the traffic needed
them. Today, a railroad freight train is made up
of cars from every part of the continent Canadian
cars, even, are not nfrequently seen.
Perhaps the parallel between freight and
street is not very precise; but it is certain
that the idea of universal exchange of service
by street is startling today than that of
like service by freight cars a few decades ago.

THE ELECTIONS OF TO-DAY.

Three States, Massachusetts, New Jersey and
Virginia, will elect governors today. In Massacnu.
sets and New Jersey Republicans, Democrats, and
Progressives all have strong candidates, and IN
addition to these, Gov Eugene N. Foss is sn indie
pendent candidate New Jersey elects the full r1cn.-
bership of its legislatures lower branch and eight
senators. Massachusetts chooses a full State ex.
ecutive ticket, legislature, and one Congress
man to fill vacancy
Maryland elects United States Senator by d.
rect vote, and has Democratic, Progressive and Re-
publican candidates in the field 1t also elects one
Congressman to fill vacancy and a new legisIa-
ture.
Municipal elections being held in Indiana
and Ohio many of the contests in the bigger cities
being Of very general interest because they turn on
questions of large municipal policy and involve
lights against bosses long in control. or trying to
hight their way back after being ousted at former
elections. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and a number
OF other cities in Pennsylvania are eecting city
tickets, and the State is to choose two Judges of
the superior court
In New York the metropolis is choosing CON-
pete city administration, after one of the most SEN
sationa and remarkable campaigns ever staged
even in that town of animated politics; and about
a score of upstate towns are also eecting city
tickets.
When the returns are all in and the effort is
made to analyze them for the purpose of decid-
ing what light they shed the developing views of
the electorate regarding the National Administration
it will be found that they shed very little Nowadays
local elections are turning local issues, as they
ought and national affairs have small weight

THE GRATITUDE OF PUBLICs.

Public or republic the gratitude that communities
mete out to their benefactors is uncertain reward
The man who invented cold storage and thereby
made it possible TO provide one-quarter of the world
with the staples and delcaces of the most distant
parts has just died Of sarvation-literaly of star
vation-in France.
His name was Charles Teller, native of his
torc Amens victim of red tape, ingratitude, and dis
honest promoters. He conceived, experimental with,
and perfected the system of cold storage, with
which governments and great corporations now fit
ships and plants and railroad trains in order that the
meats fruits and vegetables of distant parts may be
transported without injury, and kept for indefinite
periods. He induced British company to build the
first refrigerator ship the Frgorifque, and in it the
first cargo of Argentine meat brought to Europe,
across the equator, through voyage of LOG days.
The meat was landed as fresh and palatable as if
it. had been slaughtered the day before. That one
invention has done more, it is estimated TO increase
the worlds traffic in foodstuffs than any other since
the railroad and the steamship were produced.
Yet this inventor was robbed of his rewards and
died in abject poverty. Two three times the
French government seized with spasms of re-
morse; once it, gave him the ribbon of the legion of
honor, when he needed meal ticket that the ribbon
wouldn't buy; again, discovering that he starv-
ing it hunted him up and gave him a glorious
banquet But he couldn't eat enough at one official
meal to last the rest of his fe and he has lately
died. Now they are going to erect statue to him.

THE LOAN LAW DECISION.

II seems as if the delay and red tape of another
appeal in the matter of the loan shark law might
well be spared. The District Court of Appeals has
sustained the law, in an opinion that apparently
leaves infnitesmal chance for reversal in the Fed
eral Supreme Court
AS the law is analyzed by Chief Justice Shepard,
it is made plain that there is no interference with
any Individual rights that have not been nterfered
with many times before, and the interference justified
by the highest courts The power to regulate rates Of
interest," for instance, has been exercised by almost
every State; legal rates of interest established
and they have been sustained by State and national
supreme courts: That appears the most important
contention raised in the local litigation and it is not
apparent how an appeal to the United States Su-
preme Court could bring reversal of the finding
written into Mr.. Justice Shepards opinion.

Mothers As Teachers.

To the Editor of THE TIMES:
/ read in a recent issue of The Times
an article by Sophie Irwin Loeb, in re-
spect to the edict of the school board of
New York city as to mothers as teach
ers. / think Miss Loeb has misstated
the case. when she says that this rul-
ing is aimed at motherhood. This is
would be allowed to teach. What they
object to is a married woman, who is
engaged in child-bearing. acting as a
teacher l think they are entirely
right; from all aspects Of the case, a
woman in that situation is unfit to act
as a teacher. Every one. and especially
every woman who has borne children.
knows that an expectant mother is
utterly unfit, in health, appearance,
and condition OF nerves to do such ar
duous work; and the mother of young
children is not in much better case;
personal care and service which is its
due. but, in case of the child's illness,
she would be so distracted that she
would either neglect her school entirely
or give 1t very Indifferent attention.
The fact that a woman is bearing
children presupposes that she has a
husband. II he is unable to support
her. So that she must be the bread win
ner they shoulcertainly forego bring
ing children into the world. until they
are in better circumstances. I dues-
lion If q married woman of the child
hearing age. ought to engage in any
exacting employment. and ! cannot see
how the two occupations can be recon-
ciled. Then there is the question OF
decency to be considered. There are

do the teaching: il the child-bearing

INTERVENTION?

Intervention by this country IN Mexico is mol
either necessary or desirable. 1t would not help
Mexico and would probably hurt it; it certainly would
not help the United States, and it would certainly
hurt it.
From the beginning certain interests and ee-
ments have insisted that we should have interven-
ton They have been suspected of more personal
than patriotic reasons for this attitude. Right now
they are particularly ;nsistent intervention; they
are going to push it by last supreme ef-
fort if that effort will do it, because it may prove that
this is the last chance.
If the Mexicans themselves can unseat Huerta
and put the constitutionalis party back into power,
there will not be another for Intervention, for
invasion, for complication and then for annexation,
for indefinite time. If this Government keeps its
hands off, the chances that Huerta will fall be-
fore many weeks. The embargo on arms and munl-
tions should be raised, so that the consttutionallst
forces in northern Mexico might fight with an even
chance That is as much as they ask; they are right
in asking that much and this Government is in er-
ror every day it denies them that even chance.
1t is not improbable that Huerta would even now
be out of power and out of Mexico, if this even
chance had been given to the consttutionasts from
the time when the Carranzista movement demonstrate
ed that it substantial and able to sustain itself
The fact that mistake been ade in out atti-
tude toward the consttonalists does not plead that
we should now make another mistake by OVERRIDING.
If there has been too great caution thus far there
no reason why we should rush to the other extreme
now, and unsheath the sword. Give the constitu-
tionalists sword, and they will do their fight
ing, and do it with vastly better effect than could
do it.

COMPROMISING ON SHEETS.

Senator Cummins having INDUCED some stump
speech criticisms of President Wilson for debating
to Congress and 'coercng" it, a number Of Demo-
cratic Senators have come to the defense of the
President and insisted that he never did any such
thing.
Which recalls the story of the newly-wedded cou-
pie who disagreed as to whether they should sleep
between sheets or blankets. The husband wanted
blankets and the wife wanted sheets. The matter
was finally adjusted by compromise, as the groom
explained to a friend
What was the plan of compromised" asked the
friend. ....
%, We compromised on sheets" was the reply
Congress and the President have been compro-
missing on sheets; but there is this advantage about
such compromises: that if sheets really better than
blankets sheets ought to be used Todays elections
are likely to shed little light on the question of
whether the country likes sheets

ANOTHER AERIAL MAIL ROUTE.

As only ten years have elapsed since Wilbur
Wright made his first flight at Kitty Hawk, N c., it
is too soon to expect much in the way of practical
utilization of his marvellous invention Yet the fact
that the airshp has not been put such use is the
chief for the worlds skepricsm its value
beyond that of a mechanical toy. Now and then
however. We glmmerings of what may prove to
be its real future, and of these is the decision
of the French government to establish its second
aerial line of the postal service.
The new line will be much longer than the first
one which merely dispatch of mail from Paris
to catch South American steamer. 1t will extend
from the capital to Nice SIS miles, and the journey
will be made in eight and half hours including
three stops TO drop heavy packages and take on
others. As more than sixteen hours required for
the same trip by rail, the direct gain from the new
service will be marked.
II is worth noting that the American biplane type
is selected for this hard service in preference to the
French monopane. which is more spectacular in the
performance of fancy acts in the air. The French
ministry went step further and insisted that the
airshp be fitted with stabilizng device, evidently
wishing to take few chances possible Of hazard
