But such an explanation cannot be
fully accepted for this carefully plotted
and desperately realized act. The real
stimulation was assuredly race hatred

an expression Of the suppressed rage OF
the Serb people Of Bosnia at the annex

the grinding tyranny with which their
Austrian rulers have striven since 1908
to crush their aspirations for racial
freedom and evolution.

A Place for Cooperation

During the suspension Of traffic In
the subway yesterday unnecessary DIS.
comfort and danger was caused by the
overcrowding Of the platforms Of sta.
lions affected in Brooklyn and Man
haitian. Why were persons permitted
to enter the stations from the street
when there was evidently no means to
take them out?
In such cases az this. when delays
on the line render 1t impossible to
empty the stations, the operating CON-
pany should have the prompt assist
ance Of the police in preventing would
he passengers from entering on their
property until traffic Is resumed. On
the surface the crowds can be easily
handled and restrained from endan-
gering themselves. Underground the
crush constitutes a serious menace.
A little forethought and cooperation
would provide adequately against such
incidents, which now habitually mark
ticups Of the subway. each OF which
holds the possibility Of disaster.

what would happen under a Nero or Ca
ligula? The good C@sars establish prece-
dent, and every child knows that prece-
dent can be used for either a bulwark Of
society or stepping stone OF ambition.
Precedent built on the ruin Of a charter
carries tho germ OF revolution and Is ever
dangerous. Liberty entrusted to an indi-
viduai becomes the embryo OF bondage.
There can be no better time to agitate
for regulation as a plank In party plat
forms.
What regulation is needed? The Fed
eral Executive should he the censor, not
the source Of patronage. A majority OF
congressman Of his own party In each
State could make recommendations II

Quite as important as the patronage
question Is that OF direct and immediate
responsibility to the nation. Our repre-
scntatves must represent their constitu-
