A Job That Calls for Big Men.

This week formal nominations for directors OF the
district banks of the Federal Reserve system are TO
be completed and elections to be over by the end
of the month. In this state which makes up DIS
trict No. ., committees Of the various banking
groups have made recommendations for the office
and some opposition candidates have been selected
So far the opposition represents honest difference
of opinion and not personal ambition, it is perhaps
we'll that the bankers of the state should have put
before them a broad field for choice SO widespread
prejudice exists against the financial centre in
this city that the New York district should avoid
even the appearance of failing to allow the member
banks perfect freedom of action.
When it comes, however to the vote by which in
divdual institutions select the directors they would
do well to forget any local pride or prejudice and
think of the size of the job that awaits the men
chosen. In rediscounting operations, sound judy
ment of credit and monetary conditions will be
needed particularly in case of issue of currency
based on the rediscounted paper. The bank in this
city, too, will come in contact with the other great
financial centres of the world and foreign exchange
operations require peculiarly broad experience
No question Of representing smaller institutions
from their membership should stand in the
way of electing men big enough to handle these
siderable of an experiment. The banks of New
York State should not experiment with untried
directors.

The Village That Is Planned.

Americans are not supposed TO like their villages
planned. The idea savors too much of co-opera-
ton, uniformity and Continental restrictions upon
individual liberty If an American wants purple
roof or pea green bay window why he is sup
posed to get it, Such is the way of his marvellous
centrifugal soul.
Nevertheless, village planning is gaining interest
in this country. and to all those Americans who
feel sneaking liking for the idea we commend
an article in the current atlantic" 1t relates to
the Hampstead Garden suburb, in the north of
London This development represents the most
advanced ideas in cooperative village life and as it
has now been running successfully for some seven
years it cannot be dismissed as mere shot in the
air
Three ideas unite in the Hampstead suburb
First there is, Of course, the aesthetic one the old
garden city idea by which house designs must have
the approval Of the communal architect and gar
dens are fOstered with the aid of a landscape ex-
pert Second comes what may be called the scien-
tine aspect Of town planning, which has been
developed chiefly in Germany. Convenience, econ
omy Of road space and lot hygiene and comfort fall
under this head. Lastly, there Is the idea which
makes Hampstead especially interesting-coopera
tive land ownership-about as close an approxi-
nation to socialistc practice as can be found.
None of the land is owned privately The free
hold is held by joint stock company and the land
Is leased 10 building companies 1t is these build
ing companies, purely voluntary organizations a
natural growth of the communal idea which present
cooperative land ownership in its purest form
Each tenant holds at least $50 of his building com.
pany's stock, and the maximum stock owner
ship permitted in any one individual is only 500
the direction Of the company is exceedingly demo-
cratic. fixed rent is paid by each tenant and at
the end Of the year rent dividend is declared out
of surplus, after sinking fund.- interest repairs up
keep and administration have been attended to.
TO any one familiar with the cooperative stores
Of England it be seen how readily these CO.
operative building companies developed In this
country cooperation is still hateful word outside
of business life. Our building and loan societies
have been exceedingly popular and have helped
finance small house building the country over. But
the idea of Joint ownership in tract Of land with
Joint building and planning toward n communal
purpose has never entered into these organizations.
The gain In beauty. convenience, health and econ
omy from the Hampstead idea seems incontroverti-
BILE VIII our aggressive American individuality

blessings among nj?

A Disappointed Bidder.

II the Postolicc were in private ownership MI
McAdoos expert estimates that an easement 1or Il
subway under it would be worth SlVOo,V" Anu
Mr.. McAdoo wants 100000 from the city. bu1
the site isn't in private ownership. 1t is In pubic
ownership, and that, too Of limited KIND. Inc
United States cannot sell the site to private owner
for whose purposes its value would be lessened by
having tunnel under it. If it sells, 1t must sell 10
the city, which will own the subway. So long as the
United States retains it the land must remain the
site of postofce, and the site of posoilice II
will be benefited by being in contact with the sub
way system.
The 100000 demand is preposerous. We some
times think that we suffer here in New York, the
chief taxpayer Of the nation, from the meanness and
provinciaism Of statesmen from Waycross and
Smiths Corners. A statesman from Waycross or
Smiths Corners could see that the $1,OO0oO0 demand
was preposterous. Nobody could miss the point but
disappointed bidder for the subway system.

THE FARCE AT NIAGARA FALLS
Let Us Attend to Our Own Agrsrian
Problem, Urges a Reader.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The present a mediation
conference at Niagara Falls, Ont, Is
a farce.
The United States has no business
with the Mexican agrarian problem. 1t
is our business to suppress anarchy
there and aid it's people to restore orderly
republican government. If it were not
for wofully weak federal adminlstra-
ton this would have been done long
since.
With large holdings IN the western
portion of the United States, and IN
cidentally in other parts of our country
we have an agrarian problem or our
own. Let us pull the beam out or our
own eye before we undertake to remove
tho agrarian mote out of our Mexican
brothers eye.

WHAT SPLIT THE C. D. p?
Not Boss Rule, but Theodore Roose
v-lt, Says Reader.

| To the Editor of The Tribune.
! Sir: There can be no common ground Of
union between the Republican and the
/ Progressive parties while the latter Is
dominated by Theodore Roosevelt. All
efforts to bring about such a union will
be looked upon with distrust by every
true Republican as pointing to one ana
only one purpose. the candidacy or Mt.
Roosevelt in 1916. Nothing is more certain
than that the Colonel himself has no
other purpose in view, and that his gentle
language and lack of criticism for us. 50
different from his laundering denuncia-
tions of us but a year ago, have but
single object
The thing which split the Republican
party in 1912 was not boss rule; 1t was
Theodore Roosevelt. The Republican
party was not divided on the question
of principles. The principles advanced by
the Bull Moose party were borrowed py
its leaders" at the eleventh hour only
on account of necessity. as the advocacy
of some kind of principles Is necessary
part of the working machinery OF every
political organization. The vast majority
Of those who voted the Bull Moose ticket
would have voted for Roosevelt had ne
run on any platform; had they been apie
to, they would have turned every depart
ment of the government absolutely anu
unreservedly over to his control
The Republican party. in again risins
to power, does not intend to De hooo-
winked by demagogues and "carpet-oag-
gers" It does not intend to place itself
again in the hands of those VINO iorihe'.'

the situation. and as far as II is con-
cerned Rooseveltism must ever remain

Leadership and PATRONAGE.

Senator Cummins has returned in ''The indie
pendent to his favorite complaint that the Presi-
dent is Overawing and celebrating Congress. There
can be no doubt that for the last fifty years the
political power of the Executive has grown steadily
at the expense of Congress. Congress had Andrew
Johnson tied hand and foot. 1t tried TO take from
him even the right to appoint and discharge federal
officers The Senate, rather than the President,
was the chief power in Washington until Roose-
vets time. Since then the people have been look
ing for leadership TO the President, and that state
OF mind has produced the one-man government OF
President Wilson, who has exercised more sweeping
legislative powers than any other President since
jefferson.
To saw however as the Senator from Iowa does,
that the power of the Executive rests on patronage
IS altogether beside the mark. Presidents have
about the same amount of patronage, but all are
not successes as party leaders. The Democratic
party In Congress repudiated Mr.. Clevelands lead
ershp In his second administration although he had
even more Offices TO give out then than he had in his
first administration. Congress make head
against President whenever ii is right and he is
wrong The trouble is that the average President
nowadays IS much nearer TO the understanding OF
the country than the average Congress IS. Coura-
geous leaders in Congress with popular sentiment
on their side could easily drive President into pc-
litical isolation.
II the Presidents power is due to patronage the
Senate has fomented his power. since II is the body
In Washington always most anxious to create more
patronage 1t has fought the transfer to the class
fed list Of all sorts Of minor Offices President Taft
implored the Senate TO extend the civil service reg
uIations so as TO cover second and third class post
masters But the Senate dumb 1t has always
swept the darkest corners of the federal structure
for crumbs of patronage. If Congress is annoyed
al the overshadowng power Of the Executive and
thinks patronage to blame 1t can easily protect
itself. Let itss-t down the Presidential appoint
nent list byi .er cent Any sensible President

SAVING ST. JOHNS CHAPEL

Sir: Thanks for your editorial re. St.
Johns Chapel. In the sermon entitled
THE Policy of Trinity Parish" preached
by DR.. Manning at Trinity Church April
IS, 1909, we find the statement: 1--WE be-
lieve the work can be carried on far
more strongly and effectively than 1t has
been heretofore from both centres" This
statement was made in referring TO the
consolidation of the work at st. Luke's
and the closing of st. Johns for regular
services. The figures furnished by the
parish to the conventions of 1903 and 1913
show that the result of the consolidation
has been directly opposite. Here are the
figures taken from the journals of the
two conventions:
