The American Voice.

The crusade against the American voice con-
tinucs. and To its general aims it is pleasure TO
subscribe We take our speech with too little raln-
ing and forethought, and sound pitching OF voices
and training in clear enunciation ought TO be made
an important and essential part of all schooling.
so far as general utility and comfort go, GOOD
speaking is of constant value than good spell
ing Yet il receives far less attention.
But let us not waste time over unessentials or
atempt the impossible or worst of ALL wander after
bad examples The differing use-or non-use-of
the r sound it would be almost impossible to make
uniform from coast TO coast md such uniformity,
if it could be achieved would extingush good
deal of Measurable local flavor An r-less Chicago
or a burrfu South would be a sad spot indeed.
So with the question Of the broad "a The extreme
of nasality could be eliminated with pleasure. But
the extreme Cantabridgan breadth given to the
vowel is unnatural to most American mouths, and
when mastered by an effort sounds like the foolish
afectation that ii is.
As for the bad examples, word Of warning Is
due against the third rate London English with
which certain visiting companies of players are max
ing our stages hideous. The best of British pronun
ciation-most often a product Of Dublin, by the
vay-is admirable But the vicious singsOng Of its
imitatOrs is an abominaton. This method elim
mates all relation between sound and sense. And
whatever else is done to American voices. should
certainly preserve that forcbe straightforward ac
centuaton of a sentence which, with all our faults
is the common custom to-day.

To Strengthen Public Service Commissions.

There is much Outcry just now about the failure
OF the two public service commissions TO do their
work adequately and the desirabiity Of Governor
Glvnns recognition OF the mistakes made by Gov
ernor Dix and Governor Sulzer in appointing poll
ticans 10 these bodies. Some Of this criticism is
justified: some of it isn't like "The Worlds" com
parison of the running expenses of the Interstate
Commerce Commission and the New York City com
mission which overooks the fact that about so per
cent of this body's expense is for rapid transit work
and comparatively small amount for inspection
and supervision.
The Governors appointments to the commissions
are the most important ones pending. Certainly
they should not be made on basis of politics. 1t
is difficult enough for new man to fill one or these
posts even If he has technical knowledge or public
service corporation experience, but even harder if
he has a political past to live down. The Governor
would serve the public best by reappointing strong
members Of the commissions and replacing weak
ones with men skilled in this line Of work-if pos
sble. men trained in the commissions themselves
and familiar at first hand with commission prob

Food Auctions to Combat Living Cost.

If the produce auction and market scheme which

would do away with the condition which now results
in foodstuffs roting OH farms in good years, while
city folk are at that very time paying high prices
for the same kinds Of produce, It would be boon

ground that it has worked well in France, as the
Governor says and offers promise Of benefit to both
farmers and consumers

demand A small supply Of eggs. butter, meats,
vegetables and fruits always high retail prices,
whereas plentiful years never see as Immediate and
accurate a reflection of the bumper crops in low
prices and widespread sales The establishment or
auction markets under recognized authority which
would give assurance of the trustworthiness OF the
sellers and their produce should do much to stlmu-

and families And any assault on the hlgh cost oil

better and fresher foodstuffs is bound to be highly

WHY is A HOME ?"
One Home Maker Picks Flaws in Mrs.
Gilman's Plea.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Your editorial in to-days paper
on Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Gilman's idea
OF what homes should be is an able one
and calculated to please those OF us who
have made homes. Mrs. Gilman is evil
IDENTIFY not one Of these. She condescend-
ingly tells us that she believes in the
separate, private home for each family
and preferably one in the country as be-
ing more healthful for the children. AMI
then she points out how very much be-
hind the times we arc because we stu
have cooking and washing done in our
homes Mrs. Gilman, like many other 70
formers, lets her ideas run away with
her. the more so that she evidently has
not had the SOLDERING experience OF bear
ing and rearing children. Reduced to its
simplest elements, a home is simply
place in which to shelter and rear the
human young In orphan asylums every
where il has been proved that babies 10
not thrive, and frequently do not sur
vive, under institutional care. They need
the care and the love which they ord-
narly receive in the average home.
Granted this premise, what does Mrs. Gil
man mean by suggesting that all laundry
work must be done outside the home?
The proper care of a young child means
daily washing, and washing done under
wholesome conditions, and for most OF US
il must be done for a reasonable price.
The public laundry seldom fuflls these
conditions. as the writer can feelingly
testify. having had experience with this
kind of work in many different places.
She has found it always meant work bal
~ done, clothes eaten by alkalis or acids
and torn by machinery. and charged for

of laundry work make IL impossible TO-.

Then Mrs. Gilman wishes us 10 have
our food delivered TO us cooked or m

necessary 10 have cooking done in the
household. She does not know how this
is TO be accomplished. but no doubt some
body will invent way. IL our food had
been in tho habit of coming to us In that
manner a good many OF US would have

MIR. Wilson Again Shows Moral
Courage by Reversing Himself.

President Wilson has the courage to modify or
reverse his own opinions when he finds them I'M
practicable and mistaken His reversal OF hlmseh
ON the tolls exemption provision of the Panama
Canal law was a case in point The country re-
snects him for that and it will also respect him for
tho change Of front on the antitrust legislation pro-
rramme which according to Washington dispatches,
he has just executed.
Mr. Wilson has learned a great deal since he de
liyered his consultation of peace message TO Con
gress on January 20. He has discovered that there
is n vast difference between outlining in general
way amendments to a masterpiece of legislation Ike
the sherman antitrust act and reducing those
amendments TO a form in which they Will strengthen
the law instead of confusing and weakening it. The
President was oversanguine seven weeks ago, when
he said to the two houses of Congress-
Surely We are sufficiently familiar with the actual
processes and methods of monopoly ana Oh tie i"y
hurtfu restraints of trade to make dehn1tlon pos
sble at any rate up to the limits OF what N-
perence has disclosed. Those practices pens nov
abundantly disclosed can be explicitly ana item ny
item forbidden by statute in such terms as Will
practically eliminate uncertainty, the law ltseii anu
the penalty being made equally PLAIN
Now, the Washington correspondents agree the
President has given up all idea Of introducing new
definitions into the law He recognizes the TACT tha1
the law as it has been construed by the courts, Is
stronger and more uSe1ul Indn IL "ouu pO =
amended by the injection Of new definitions lie
deserves credit therefore, for dismissng from prac-
teal consideration the optimistic phrases of his
message of January 90.
The President has done more than reverse his own
opinions In the public interest He has once more
stricken off the shackles Of the Democratic national
PLATFORM within whose limitations, he once said III
a moment Of thoughtlessness he felt obliged to
operate as party leader. The Baltimore platform
contained this declaration:
We regret that the Sherman antitrust law mas
received judicial construction deprivins 1t OF much
of tic efficacy and we favor the enactment of egs-
ation which will restore to the statute the strength
of which il was deprived by such Interpretation.
The Presidents leadership should not be hampered
hv the mistakes made in the preparation of the last
Democratic national platform. The country VIII be
clad TO see him absolve himself from its pledges
whenever those pledges bar TO sensible or patrl
otto action The less Congress does to interfere with
tho application Of the Sherman law on the lines now
marked out by judicial determination the more eff
fectuallv will the evils Of monopoly be checked and
cured Fortunately Mr.. wilson's policy is now shap-
ing itself toward minimum instead Of a maximum
of interference.
