Give Us Men OF Action

NUR men of action, where are they7 The
~ country ls nauseated by the wishy-washy
platitudinarianism which in Washington has
been passing for statesmanship these many
months. The Panama episode is cumulative
evidence Of the enthusiastic do-nothlngism
which has become symptomHtic OF Organism.
The Governor of the Canal Zone wanted
ships, but Washington appeared to be afraid
to send them on the theory that It might
be construed as an unfriendly act by some
Power or other. There was time when
American ships could pass from one Amer
lean port to another without thought Of the
views of other nations Now We are so
sunk in a false pacihcism that we hesitate
to enforce even our most fundamental rights.
There never was so much bromidic f1eu-
trality.
Some idea OF the absurdity Of the situa-
ton may be gathered from the fact that the
Government yesterday was awaiting further
advices as to whether Colonel Goethals
wanted the two destroyers he asked for
merely to prevent wireless transmission Of
unneutral messages or to prevent bell
ligerents' vessels from making the isthman
waters base Of operations" BY the shades
of Molly Pitcher, what difference does 1t
make what he wants them for? 1t might
be supposed that the officer in charge of the
nations greatest Investment was second
rate consul just out of college, to judge
from the temporlzing and quibbling in Wash
ington.
There has been enough red tape wound
about this particular episode to suffice for all
time. Men who can say yes and no. men
with decision in their makeup and spines in
their bodies, are needed at the capital. Sec
retary Garrison has handled the Naco incl
dent with some idea Of what is becoming
to the national dignity and prestige But he
stands in lonely contrast to the other execu-
tive officers who surround him. It is possible
to be pacifcist without being o mollycoddle,
to earn and command peace by iron pur-
pose. But there Is nothing but trouble and
anxiety ahead of the incompetency which is
concealing itself in the cloak Of self-restraint
and patience.

EAGER FOR War
Do Not Want 10 Fiehi against
Germans, Says Members Of
Publicity Committee


That there is dissatisfaction among
the Hindus of the United States with
Britain's course is the statement Of
the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. a recent
issue of which contains the following:
The Hindus of the United States
and Canada-there are probably mol
very many Of themhaye risengto pro
test against the British assertion that
all India sides with England in the
present war. Leading Hindu editors
and writer's resident in the United
States have issued formal statement
in which they present their attitude.
K reads as follows:
ct is with profound regret that the
Hindus have learned of the disgust
ing methods by which the British gov
eminent in India has compelled the
impotent native princes Of that coun-
try to contribute heavily towards the
British fund for the present wal, With
still greater regret have We learned OF
the heinous intention of the British
government to send the native Hindu
soldiers to fight In Europe against
Germany, whom the people OF India
have always counted among their
truest friends and well-wishers,
.The statement made by the Brit
ish government that the people of In
tlia are enthusiastic for the British
cause is obviously and utterly false.
On account of the severity Of the mar
tial law, at present prevailing in In
dia, the people in that unfortunate
country cannot give expression to
their real feelings in this matter. II
is with indeseribable adherence, in
deed, that they regard the treaeherous
move Of the English government, on
the one hand, in denuding India. OF
her native soldiers (for fear that they
might rebel against British tyranny at
this crisis) and on the other, IN re-
guessing help OF the interruptions

they can to deter their poor ignorant
and brutalized fellow countrymen,
who have the misfortune to serve in
the British army from lighting against

For employing the blind, brute
forces Of Asia against India herself.
and against her best friends, Great
Britain win have to rue one day
sorely.
This statement should be taken as
amounting to declaration BY all sec
tons of public opinion IN India, as q
protest against British methods and Of
their feelings of warm friendship to-
wards Germany.

THE PROPER VIEW
OF ACCIDENTS.
PENNSYLVANIA Railroads Low Acct
dent Rate Due to Realization of
Its Duty to The Public.

The lines of the Pennsylvania
Railroad System carried S7,000,0OC
| passengers in the six months be-
tween January l aand July /, 1914
and not one of them was killed in
a train accident.
In the calendar year 1913 the
| Pennsylvania Railroad lines East
of Pittsburg carried los, 1000
passengers-the exact figures are
now available-and not one was
killed in a train accident.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Sys-
TEN has 11,729 miles of line and
26,1 miles of track. More than
113 900 passenger trains are oper-
ated on these tracks every month,
1866 trains a day. This record of
| six months means the safe opera
ton by day and by night, through
fog, snow, storm and clear weather,
of 6S0,000 passenger trains, while
at the same time approximately as
many more freight trains are be-
ing cared for.
On the Pennsylvania lines East
of Pittsburg no passenger has been
killed in a train accident since 1912
During this period these lines alone
have carried more than 161, 1,000,-
600 people without the loss of
passengers life in a train accident.
The Pennsylvania management
regards every accident of any
kind as one too many. Every eff
fort is being continually directed to
the end that the number of acci-
dents of all kinds may be reduced,
and if possible prevented.

Most looney Charge Exploded.

Z About the silliest charge yet fab
fricated against President Wilson is
Injecting its proper answer 1t is
] the charge that the President has
Violated the Constitution. by persuaC
ing Congress to give the reforms
which the public is demanding.
The answer comes from members
of the Congress which, according to
.these insinuations, is being and has
been ''intimidated."
You may remember that Presi-
| dent Taft was so respectful of the
Constitution that he permitted Con-
gress, then dominated by Aldrich
/ and Cannon, to ignore and defy his
own and his party's solemn pledges
while writing the Payne-Aldrich ta-
riff in 1909. You may remember,
also, the general opinion formed of
TAFT in consequence.
Hence the following extracts from
a speech of Representative Perl D..
Decker, of Missouri, a new Demo-
cratic member, have a peculiar and
timely interest:
sour course it was never inten-
ded by the Constitution that Con-
|gress should be browbeaten or in
timidated by the President; but it
twas intended that he should eXer-
else an Influence over Congress by
Ereason and by intellectual persua-
sion. President Wilson has exer-
Ecised this kind of influence.
Did the President 'overbear'
y 4. Z. A : sss ss Il II teli e
Ehill? True. he uttered a protest
THAT started the movement that
rnve the Mulhall lobby from the
orridors of Congress with the hash
public scorn.
"True, also, that the great Ways
and Means Committee submitted the
tariff bill to the President and he
made suggestions as to certain
items. That is in harmony with
the principles of the Constitution,
as 1 will point out to you. If the
tariff bill, after it had been passed
by Congress, had not been salts
factory to the President of the
United States it would have been
his duty to veto it. And then,
dare you tell this House and the
people of the country that he was
'overbearing Congress- because, be-
fore it was passed, he made his
opinions known to the men who are
responsible here for passing the
tariff bill.
stWhen the tariff bill had been
passed, many good men said let
us adjourn and rest on our laurels.
Congress had a constitutional right
to adjourn, but the President has
"a constitutional right to re-convene
Congress. Was it an encroachment
on legislative authority then for
him to say, You have done well,
but I recommend that before you
adjourn you fulfill another promise
and reform the banking and curren-
cy laws
"Will the gentleman say that
the President has overborne Con-
gress because he has asked us to
uphold his hands in the efforts
which he and the great Secretary of
State, Mr.. Bryan, have been max

anarchy, and strife the unhappy
people of distracted Mexico;in the
efforts to save them without los

And, in connection with the trust
bills, it is identically the same
| story.
