WEAK RATIFICATION.

It has to be admitted that the safe ty at sea convention in London, though limited in it's action, made progress in the.right direction. It had for its oFb- feet the standardization of measures calculated to insure greater protection to and materially aid in the saving of life on the high seas. Even though it failed to go as far as might be de- sired, it nevertheless provided for a more general participation and better provisions in such a commendable cause.
 Though promoted by the United States there were indications that this country was going to overlook the rat ification of the treaty, step which had been taken by Germany and Great Britain in May and August respec- lively, and which under the time limit had to be done by the end of this month. Thus the action of the sen ate in ratifying it with the under standing that it's provisions shall not be considered binding as against any legislation this country may later adopt relative to our own ships or vessels entering our own waters, re- veals not only procrastination, but takes a. peculiar view of what treaty ratification means. If all treaties were signed in that sort of a manner they certainly could become nothing more than scraps of paper. There is the loophole for failure to uphold the pro- visions. It displays a weakness which is not complimentary. The situation was such as to call for the approval or non-approval of the convention. The result is a half approval and half repudiation, The senate has given its approval with string to it at the very last minute even though the pres ident declared i've should show our earnest good faith in a great matter by adding our own acceptance of it'' It is hardly a commendable method of treaty making.

MAKING FOR SAFETY.

Demonstration is bound to have it's effects even if it has to be repeated time and again. and this can be said of the second exposition of safety which has just closed in New York Such an exposition is educational and it cannot help but make it's impress sion upon each and every one who is attracted thereto, and even though the number be small in comparison to the millions who might well improve the opportunity, it cannot help being rec ognized that it is bound to bring good results.
 As it is well said by President Ar thur Williams of the American Museum of Safety, the value Of such an expo sition flies not 50 much in its revela- tions of the progress made in the di- rection of mechanical safety devices as in the result it will have in impress sing people with the big idea of safe ty as an element in everything they do. 1t is not enough that we are warned of danger; we have to be for cibly prevented from running the risk of injury and death. People need to be brought to the realization of how easy it is to avoid risks that exact a heavy toll of human life and cause many accidents. some of them serious, all of them dangerous and many per- manently defornling in effect In this particular movement, but two years old, age is bound to make valuable contributions. It is operating in an extensive field where experience, whether personal or otherwise, has been demonstrating for a much longer time with slow progress, but which should find a valuable ally in the safe ty exposition.

Among the many things which the ertrance~of Turkey into the war has precipitated is the ending of it's au- thority, small though it was, in Egypt. For the past thirty years Egypt has paid to the sultan of Turkey an an- nual tribute and it has remained as a part of the Turkish empire with a khedive loyal thereto. but with im- portant offices administered by rep resentatfves of Great Britain. During all this time Great Britain has acted with friendliness to Turkey. It has been particularly interested in pro- tecting the trade route through the Suez canal and it has accomplished much for that corner of Africa by the institution of needed reforms in gov- ernment and finances.
 Now by the action of Turkey in en- &eavoring to arouse Egypt to the GeTt1iroW of British occupation, Great

TO THE EDITOR
Mr Case,s Position.

Mir. Editor: Kindly allow me space enough in which to vidicate my motives from an attack in a letter signed by Herbert J. Wyckoff in your issue of December Is.
 I heartily agree with the above writer in. saying that my suit against the Second church did not stain its integrity: but I emphatieally affirm that the chnrehs intergrity, in the matter of keeping it's contracts, has been indeIlihIy stained by recent acts of it's accredited officials. To my cer- tain knowledge and experience, the said officials, within the space of three weeks, unjustly repudiated the church's contract with two members of the church quartette.
 The first instance was of a young tenor of this city with whom, after a thorough trial, and with the unquali- fled approval and endorsement of the choir directress, a contract was signed in good faith One week later the singer was refused the continuance of his contracted rights upon invalid grounds. that is. grounds not specified in the contract. This injustice was perpetuated against this member of the quartette for the purpose of giv- ing his rightful position to anoth- CT.
 The letter in question, by not stat ing the circumstances under which my alleged resignation was obtained,
Norwich bulletin., 1914-12-21

conveys a very false impression. The release of the church's contract with me was procured under circumstances which caused me to be deceived At a conference with certain officials about three hours were consumed in strenuous efforts to secure from me release of the church from my con- tract. These efforts were finally suc- cessful through making me believe as true, something that I almost im- mediately afterward found to be un- true.
 The lack of space alone prevents me from detailing the proofs of the foregoing statements.

lNcREAsEp FREIeHT RATES.

By the decision that has been rem dered granting aq increase in freight rates to the railroads of the east the Interstate Commerce Commission has admitted that .-the railroads have proved their claims. The entire board apparently is convinced of the need of relief, though all were not agreed upon the lump increase. The majority, however, believed that the increase should. be granted without further de- lay and in the manner requested. Though the decision will give them but about S30, ,060, 900 of the $50, 900 desired, the full benefit is not con- tained therein alone for sight cannot be lost of the help which the roads are going to get through the placing of their credit upon an improved basis. The increased freight rates are going to help both directly and indi- rectly.
 The early decision which has been rendered in this case is in direct con- trast with the past experience of the railroads in seeking a readjustnent of theft troubles. It must appeal to public opinion that there has been a just treatment of the case and in ac- cordance with the facts as presented and conditions as they exist. In this matter the commission has acted in accordance with the purpose for which it was appointed and only by such can regulation be obtained. Fairness is expected on all occasions and it is believed that it has been shown at the present time.
 Even though much has been said about the limited authority of the commission, it appears to be invested with plenty for dealing with such a problem as the roads disclosed.

CONGRESSIONAL MILEAGE.

Commissioner Of Internal Revenue Osborn in q synopsis of rulings on the law governing the income tax has an- nouneed that the mileage of congress- men is subject to tax except that part actually expended in transperta- ton. Such will be admitted to be a fair decision relative to the income tax, but why should there~be any in- come from mileage except what is act ually used for transportation? Why should it be possible for mileage to be figured as part of a congressman S income at all?
 Under the present arrangements each congressman is paid twenty cents a mile for his travelling expenses, which as a matter of actual transpor- tation expense do not amount to three. This is the continuance of an archaic custom established when transporta- ton was by horseback or much more costly, but despite tho clamor for economy and the urging of economical government expenditures congress is not disposed to give up this handout which they vote themselves from the national treasury.
 How great a chance there is of the present system of mileage being changed is indicated by the action of the house upon the legislative, judicial and executive appropriation bill in which it was proposed to reduce the mileage of members from twenty to five cents q mile. Though the<bill car Tying $36.000.000 received but a three day consideration the item reducing the mileage was stricken from the measure It is, however, a wrong con- dition, which needs immediate reform and though it affects the legisiators directly they should have the moral courage to end it.

Britain takes the situation by the horns in declaring a protectorate over that country to tho loss of the Turks and the benefit of the people of Egypt.
 Egypt has profitsd greatly from the manner in which it's finances have been regulated and as a direct result of the concentration of British minds and in- fluence upon it's problems an orderly government, peace and prosperity have replaced the former chaotic condi- tions. The removal of what remained of tho Turkish authority is not likely to have any serious detrimental ef- fects If the people of that country stop to consider and view it in the light of past events. the change is decidedly in their favor.

Hips or no hips are equally fashion able. One ultra fashionable appears with straight front froclS that likens her to a column; another appears with a full skirt gathered at the normal waist line that curves her into a grace full vase. Inspect your figure and take your choice. If your figure does not show to it's best advantage, the fault lies with you, not with the de- signers, who have generously given us this season such a quantity of lines from which to select. For the woman who likes width of skirt about the feet, but less about the hips, there are the circular skirts and those gathered to an easily fitting yoke.

CLEANS METALLIc LACE.

A fine powder should be made of stale breadcrurnbs and ordinary wash ing blue, which should then be rubbed into the lace (first laid over a clean cloth) with the finger tip till it be- comes quite bright. Next take a piece of clean, soft old flannel and very lightly brush over the lace until all the crumbs are of. Finally rub the lace gently with a piece of soft crimson velvet, after which it is as bright and as good as when it was new. If it has got very much pulled out of shape do not attempt to press it right with a. fiat iron. The only way is. before cleaning, to gently and firmly pull the lace into shape so far as is possible. In the case of curled points, they can be gently pulled out and stuck down with pin into position on the wad of linen.
