Our Dilettante "Kriees-Herr. "

In the paragraph of his message dealing with
the navy the President unconsciously illustrated
his dilettante attitude toward the problems OF
national defence "Who shall tell us now what
sort of navy to build?" he asked Again
"Wben will the experts tell us what kind LOT
ebins1 we should construct--and when will they
no RIGHT for ten years together, if the relative
efficiency of craft of different kinds and uses con-
tinues to change as we have seen 1t change
under our very eyes in these last few months?'
That detached, purely speculative point OF
view might be reasonably assumed by a closet
critic of naval construction. But it is an imprac-
teal one for an official charged with creating
feet or keeping it in being. navy's value lies
in its readiness for immediate use, and it must be
maintained from year to year, even though its
units rapidly become obsolete.
If Presidents and Secretaries of the Navy had
talked in the past as President Wilson talks now,
we would have no modern navy. The early bat
tleships have been dsmantled, and even the bat
tleships Of ten years ago are out Of date. Was it
doubtful policy, therefore, to build them, instead
of going on using wooden and unarmored steel
ships until some absolute standard Of efficiency
in armored craft should be established?
"Who shall tell us now what sort Of navy to
build?" Who told Great Britain and Germany
how to build their navies? The way to build is
to build according to the best existing knowledge
Those in charge of a navy must be willing to face
responsibility and do their duty according to the
light they have Least of all should they try to
dodge responsibility on the plea that we may
know more about the possibilities of naval con-
struction tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

Budgets and Budget Making.

Assemblyman Humans plan for budget maxi
ing, discussed by him with Governor-eect Whit
man, is only a little better than the existing
SYSTEM 1t provides for a budget bureau, headed
by an expert to make up budget under the
direction of a budget committee composed Of
the Senate Finance Committee, the head of the
Assembly Ways and Means Committee and the
party leaders of both houses. This scheme really
merely improves the present system by the use
of the preliminary work of an expert and by a
reduction of the number Of legislators having
finger in the pie before the introduction of the
bills. 1t creates no hope Of radical improve
ment, since it still leaves all control of appro-
priations with the Legislature.
Since the entire subject will have to be taken
up by the Constitutional Convention next April, it
seems rather a waste of work to submit this
scheme to the new Legislature Complete control
of appropriations by the Legislature, subject
only TO an incomplete veto by the Executive has
not proved a success. 1t offers too much oppor-
tunitv for log-rolhng-for the bribery Of legis-
lators to vote for bills desired by the machine
through promises TO pass their favorte grab bills
The plan which Mr. Stimson intends to present
TO the Constitutional Convention, of giving bud
get making power to the Governor, while the
Legislature may reduce items but not increase
them, seems much more pregnant of improve
ment. II would create centralized responsibility
for the total of appropriations and would remove
many chances now existing for serving private
interests at the cost of state funds. The incom-
ing Legislature will have many things to consider
1t seems hardly worth while to ask it to adopt
changes in a budget system which may them
selves be changed within a year.

A HUNGARIAN PROTEST
The Magyar Distaste for the Name of
Austrian.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | herewith protest against what
seems to me TO be practically a con-
spiracy on the part of newspapers in
this city TO ignore all things Magyar
(Hungarian). This protest is caused
partly by the following article, which
appeared in to-day's issue of The Trib-
une: dance Aids Austrians. Fami-
lies of Austrian soldiers will receive
$4,000 as the result of a ball given
last night in Terrace Garden by the
Petoti Sick and Benevolent Society;
the money will be forwarded by the
Austrian Consul" Let me explain that
the above society is named after the
great Magyar poet, Alexander Petof,
and that its membership is composed
wholly of Hungarians. Also that the
money will aid Hungarian widows and
orphans and that same will be for
warded by the Austro-Hungarian Con-
sui
1t really is a shame the way this sort
of thing has been going on. Why do
editors persist in giving Austrlans
the credit for anything we Hungarians
do? Except when a crime, etc, is
committed; then we invariably get
credit for IT'D Perhaps they, too, are
under the popular impresson-ridicu-
lous in the extreme that Hungary
belongs TO Austria, and therefore we
must submerge our individuality, to-
gether with the Czechs, Slovaks,
Croats, Tyroleans, Galicians, Bosnians,
Dalmatians, Serbs and Herzegovinians
under the common name of Aus
trians."
Any one with an ordinary education
knows that Hungary is now, and has
been since the year A. d. 1901, an in
dependent, sovereign state and a king
dom; that during the reign Of Louis
the Great, 1342-'S2, it reached from
the North Sea to the Black Sea and
from the Black Sea to the Adriatic;
that Hungarians talk a different Lam
guage, have different customs, etc,
than the Austrians. Then why under
the sun are we always referred TO as
"Austrians"? Soon it will be "Attila,
the Austrian; "Kossuth, the Austrian
patriot; List. the Austrian COM
poser; "Munkaczy. the Austrian paint
err; "Tokay, the world famous Aus
trian wine," and "goulash, the national
dish of Austria!" etc, etc.
I'll keep on protesting until these
editors wake up 10 the fact that Hun
gary and the Hungarians are very
much alive-in spite of Cossacks. Tur.
cos and Cars and the sooner the
awakening comes the better

A Good Appointment.

In selecting Major General Wotherspoon to be
Superintendent of Public Works Governor elect
Whitman has gone entirely outside the field OF
politics That is an excellent thing. The man
who holds this place is the supervisor of the
canals Of the state which in operation, and,
in connection with the State Engineer and Sur
veyor, of the construction of new ones. 1t is an
important job, which should have no connection
whatever with partisan politics or patronage
grabbing Connection Of that sort has been the
case too frequently in the past.
General Wotherspoon had splendid record as
an army officer and executive To obtain it he had
to qualify as a student of men as well as OF
tactics It is to be hoped he will be equally sue
cessful in applying his ability in this new field.
The public is willing to have its money spent hon
estly for canals, but it will look to him to pro-
tect it against grabbing politicians of whatever
party and grating contractors.

OUR DEMORALIZED NAVY
Testimony as to the Effects of the
Daniels Rule on Officers and Men.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: ] wish to congratulate you on
publishing in your paper the articles
on the navy. 1t is high time some one
is showing up this inefficient, weak,
ignorant, vainglorious country editor"
Never in the history of the navy has
there been such a spirit of discomfort,
decentralization and unhappiness among
both officers and men.
Without an exception he has removed
capable efficient bureau chiefs-sucn as
DR.. Stokes and Chief Constructor Watt
who, especially in the shore staying
corps, should have been retained for the
good and efficiency Of the service. In
place of these men he has named those
whom he thinks he can control. The
new chief constructor has been on the
oretical work in Washington for twenty
years, with absolutely no navy yard
experience, and is being put in the po-
sition of an executive in the place Of
man who has been most efficient and
able in the job.
For the good of the service and the
country at large | hope you will con-
tinue TO "show up" this excuse for a
Secretary until the navy may be fortu-
nate enough to have a real man for its
head.

Mr.. Bryan's Exemption from the War
Tax.

II you run a circus, or theatre or concert
hall you have to come across very Handsomely
under the new war tax-from $50 to SlOO, ac'
cording to the scale of your business. But IL
you are fortunate enough TO operate Chautau'
qua circuit you are exempt from any charge
You can have the Secretary Of State on "Pronloi-
ton" or the Speaker of the House on any SUD-
ject within his repertory without handing over
q cent to the internal revenue tax collector. You
fall under one of those benign provided further
clauses with which good-natured legislators SO
often do good turn to a deserving brother.
Probably Mr. Bryan's friends in Congress were
right in doing as they did. But the taxpayer, as
he forks out coins for telephones and kilograms
and goodness knows what else, may be pardoned a
misery leer of disapprobation. Just think how
much a small tax on Mr.. Bryan's words, applied
at the source in accordance with true Democratic
doctrine would net the Treasury!

THE CRIME OF FREE SPEECH
A Reader Complains Of His Treatment
by Police and Court.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The other night / was arrested
on a suspicion and fined on a theory.
The facts didn't count, either with the
policeman or with the magistrate, and
so | would like to state them here.
1t was on Friday night, December 4,
/ was speaking at 163d st. and Prospect
ay. / was talking about the war and
its causes, under the auspices of "The
New Review" | was discussing an ar
ticle therein by DR.. Charles Steinmetz.
The speech was not partisan. IL was in
the nature of an academic discussion.
The crowd was orderly.
policeman came along and asked
me for my permit. | informed him that
"A permit is not necessary for conduct
ing street meetings, and that | had
complied with the police regulations in
notifying them that was going to hold
such meeting. Another policeman
came along later, asked the same ques-
tion and was given the same informa-
ton. Then a third policeman came
along, insisted that ] stop speaking,
and when ! refused put me under ar
rest.
Five witnesses accompanied us to
the Night Court, only one OF whom
knew me. lhey teStlued lnht there
was no disorder, except that created by
one of the policemen; that the side
walk was not blocked, and that it was
not an infammatory speech. But the
policeman testified that | was talking
about German culture and Russian
barbarism." As a matter Of fact, those
words were not used, and the implica-
ton Of them, hat ! was taking sides
about the war, was false.
Magistrate House, however, said that
that was enough to create disorder.
He quoted the Presidents neutrality
proclamation and certain statutes about
dogs and prostitutes. He then added
his personal opinion, to the effect that
street meetings were a nuisance, any
how, and should not be allowed 20 20
on. He gave weight to his opinion by
lining me $40.
Incidentally, the magistrate refused
to allow my attorney to ask questions
TO bring out all the facts, and be-
haved in general as though the matter
were n personal annoyance rather than
due process of law.
What | want to know is whether the
laws permitting free speech and the
police rules regulating them are to be
| set aside at the within Of q magistrate

The End of the Colorado Strike.

Workers is frank in recommending the cessa-
ton of the prolonged Colorado strike "ln our
opinion. to wage the strike further would not
mean additional gain to our members says
its communication TO the union members in the
disrupted state 1t is hard TO sHe how any
thing could be gained by frightening the
strikes existence; it would mean only further
disorder further disturbance Of business,
further loss Of wages TO the men and further
drains on the unions treasury. The mine
owners are in better position TO stand the
evils resulting from proongaton than the
workers are The wisest thing, therefore,
seems 10 be 10 call off the strike.

ALI the talk is Of the nations readiness for

THE PEOPLES COLUMN

who happens TO disapprove Of free
speech?
IL has been determined over and over
again that permits are not necessary
for holding of street meetings, and the
police have been instructed that their
duty in connection with street meet
ings is to preserve order. Is it not
about time that the city magistrates
became acquainted with the law?
An appeal has been taken, and mean
while think your readers ought to
know these facts.
