IN DEFENCE OF THE SUBWAY
A Reader Asserts That 1t Is the Best
Managed Railroad in the World.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: At the present time there seems
to be great agitation against the
subway management in its method of
handling transportation in the tubes.
DR.. Goldwater, our Health Commits
sioner. recently stated in your columns
that the Interborough Rapid Transit
Company was directly responsible for
the "healthp of the travelling public.
Others have described in your worthy
columns the mismanagement OF sched-
ules and the inefficient handling of
crowds during the rush hours.
Don't you think it time that some
one investigated the conditions under
which the Tnterborough Rapid Transit
is laboring? The present subway was
built to accommodate not more than
400 1000, and is carrying over 100000
daily. In reports of various rapid
transit engineers from other cities the
subway has been called the best man.
aged railroad in the world. IL is the
firm belief of the writer that the Inter
borough is doing all in its power to
serve the travelling public of New
York and that it is handling the sit
uation with much credit to its officers.

WORK FOR THE UNEMPLOYED
Is Not the Establishment of City In
dustries Sensible and Logical?

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In an article i'm your paper re-
Gently the question Of unemployment
was discussed and a solution was of
fered by one Bouck White. leader Of
the Church Of the Social Revolution.
The solution was the establishment OF
municipal industries.
At first sight this seems tremendous
ly revolutionary. and yet IN reality IS
il not Just the natural order of prog
ress? We are faced with the question
of the unemployment OF thousands OF
workers. chiefly industrial workers. We
ra two things toward meeting this prob
lem-extend public works and spend
thousands for charity. Neither thing
settles the question or even meets II
adequately. Instead we have the anon
alous situation of idle workers, idle
factories and huge need of the prod
uct-and it is all accepted.
What more sensible than for the City
of New York to take just half the
money that il spends in pauperiZing
the poor and start these factories, Civ
ing these starving workpeople a chance
TO earn their living? 1t seems alto
gether a reasonable suggestion. After
all. in this day OF effectiveness it would
be but sensible, for, as Mayor Mitchell
says t"lndependent," November 300:
ITO be efficient an organization, par
ticularly a public organization such as
a city government, must look forward
and readjust its service so that its
work may be not only statically eff
cient, but progressively effective"

seems to have stirred up much hubbub. 'What
is strange or wrong about it that the gentlemen
invited should fight shy of this meeting?
New York City has about half the population
Of the state and pays considerably more than hall
the taxes. receiving no direct benefit from much
of the money contributed 10 the state treasury
The city always has received much less considera-
ton at the hands Of the Legislature than is Its
due. Any upstate community of 10000 inhaol-
tnts has its interests considered more fairly and
more generously than does New York.
1t is about time for that kind of thing to STOP
Any politics that may be supposed to Turk IN
this matter should be set to one side. Mayor
Mitchell came out for the election of Governor
Glynn and The Tribune believes, made mis-
take in doing so. Nevertheless the fact should
OF be permitted to prejudice important city mat
tiers for which his administration must be the
sponsor. lie is the executive of a city whose
interests are bigger than those Of some states,
and by and large the public of this city is pretty
well satisfied with his administration and willing
70 back it in what it undertakes. Any failure
of the Republicans who are to be in charge at
Albany to recognize this and to act accordingly
will be much bigger mistake than the one which
the Mayor made last fall.

THE MOVE TO HELP GERMANY
A Critic Finds the Cerman-Amercsns Easier to
Forgive than the Irish.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: At the instance of German and German
American Representatives in the United States Con-
gress. and with the assistance of few Irsh-Ameri-
cans whose sole religion is 10 hate England, gov
eminent is about to be asked to assist the German
navy in defeating the Allies. The only possible Of
feet Of the proposed statute to prohibit the eXporta-
ton OF munitions of from this country to any
beligerent power would be 10 prevent England,
France and Russia obtaining such supplies. The
British navy has already stopped any such exporta-
ton TO Turkey, Austria and Germany.
This world and the men in it ruled more by
sentiment than by logic, and we can forgive Con-
gressmen Barthodt, Vollmer and Lobeek forgetting
their naturalization and attempting TO make the
House Of Representatives a branch of the German
Reichstag Anglo-SaXons who detest professional
patriotism and treachery will forget forgive
the tratorous attitude of the lrish-Amercan re-
calcitrants who hate England much they would
destroy Americas honor to satisfy their irrational
grudges
The difficulty that earnest and genuine Irish pa
triot, John Redmond is encountering in his mission
20 show Ireland her duty furnishes TO many reason
able men an argument that when the war is over
and the Allies have crushed Kaisersm England's
first legislative duty will be to reconsider the Home
Rule bill. PAUL YALE.

THE JEWISH SOLDIER TO RUSSIA.

o Russis, see what aurels | have
For you! Yea ], your hated, hunted son.
Upon your battlefeds my blood doth flow.
Denied your joys, share with you your woe.
VIC bleed together from the foeman's shell;
Yor shut the heavens for me, rot the hell;
Ye. see, your tramped sons your land defend
What fame to you your humbled Hebrews lend!
You hunted them; they heal your hurts with heart
OF heroes when your foremen hurs his darts.
Mans primal promptings have risen above;
The hate you showed me | repay with love:
race OF saviofs and Messiihs, !,
In love alone my life delights to vie.
Ar few mans days and short and sweet is life;
Dear is a mother dear a child and vie;
Yet all delights leave, and life give
To make my native land in honor live;
And he who gives you much love and light.

Fate's Sequel to the CIcary Acquittal.

William " Cleary will not have to pay the
penalty for his act--under the law. tender
hearted jury of his neighbors, its emotions
stirred by the cheap conventionaities OF MS
lawyers captrap about protection of the home
and guarding daughters virtue has unwisely
acquitted him of murder in shooting the boy just
come to tell of marrying his daughter
Nevertheless, acouittal is equvocal kindness
to Cleary. All his life he will have to remember
that he killed his daughters husband, the father
of her unborn babe. He will never be able to
forget that to save his own neck he paraded
her through noisome notorety and what TO MS
mind represents disgrace-that his own act barred
to all the world what he considered his daughters
shame. Fate has not been kind to Cleary. His
sleepless memory will be more dreadful punish
ment than the electric chair would have been.

An Impossible Attitude for a Judge.

According to District Attorney Cropseys tes-
timony in the Brooklyn Bar Associations investl-
cation of his charges against "hand-pickeo
Judges" Justice Marean answered his protests
against certain judicial act by declaring: The
Supreme Court has power to do anything"
It is to be hoped Mr.. Cropsey misunderstood the
statement, or, if it was made precisely as he has
repeated it, that Justice Marean has taken second
thought and realized that even the Supreme Court
is human and fallble institution and that its
members are no less human and prone to error.
Such mental attitude and kindred expressions
from Judges have bred public rebellion against
judicial anarchy" which is daily increasing.
Judge who held such opinions and backed them
up by his acts would be as dangerous to the com,
munty as any Black Hand bomb thrower. The
American scheme of government has no more
place for judicial dictators than it has for eXecu
tive despots 1t would be sad thing for this
state for any judge to think himself possessed If
unlimited rights and powers, and even sadder
for him.

THE GREATEST LOSS FROM WAR
The Fittest Die and the Puny, Weak and Unfit Are
Left to Propagate.
the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: The losses Of war have been estimated from
many angles. The cost of supporting armies, the
cost in destruction of property the loss of producing
powder, both during and after the war, and tnally,
the cost in human lives-all have been figured.
All these losses enormous appalling, but their
cost is paid mainly by the present generation The
greatest is none of these. There is another loss,
far and away more frightful It's blight is not wiped
out in one generation, in two, in three. II
will continue down the ages and will never quite
be made up.
In the normal course of events will die or
even be killed. But in the normal course of events
there will always remain tendency for the fttest
to live longest. Even in the warfare of the savage
this tendency persists. But not in the warfare OF
"civilized" man. Modern warfare is not inds-
criminate 1t does not even take mt and unfit alike
and kill them off with Indifferent hand. Ii does
worse than that 1t selects with nice the finest
physical manhood Of the nations and sheds it forth
to destruction. The puny, the weak, the unit, are
lef, behind to propagate their kind. The present
small stature of Frenchmen has been attributed with
much truth, to the glorious Napoleonic wars
1t is almost an axiom with biologists that specific
characteristics acquired during the lifetime of an
individual are not inherited by his offspring. Intel
lecual and moral education will improve the present
generation but they avail nothing with the next
The work must ever begin anew. The only hope OF
permanent Improvement in the human lies in
it's propagation by the best manhood and womanhood
in it.
In physical webeing war makes for the very OPP
posite of this. We may indeed be thankful that at
least on the intellectual and moral side war is in
discrminate-except in so far as there is truth in
"Mens sana in corpore sano."
But the prospect of physical degeneration is fright
full enough. When every other price has been paid,
when centuries have passed and time wiped out the
memory of every other loss, this will remain, the
legacy of the present generation to posterity.

ART AND SANITY
How the Futurists Hypnotized Sheep.
like Minds.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The rhapsodic stuff in your
peoples column to-day over the name
Lubomir p. Saponoff should meet with
a public corrective. OF its utterly mis-
taken statements, the following leads,
namely: Italy, the stronghold OF the
futurists, attracted widespread atten-
tion; its, propaganda was theoretically
extended throughout the Continent,
and even still further its ripples have
actually touched our shores, so that
the domination of futurism as mod
ern art expression is assured"
Nothing can possibly assure the
domination of lunacy in what senseless
people assume is art. Art, with capt.
tai A, stands FOR the clearest of all
perfectly clear sanity. Indeed, fine art,
properly so called-be il poetry, music,
sculpture, painting, histrionics, dane
ing. or even fine altogether
relates to and is inherently related
with vitalizei fruitions OF super-san-
ity. whereof quick imaginations, pre-
scient sense unknown TO mere denial"
operates within most nationally .strict,
clear limitations of causes and effects.
With this your mouldy minded
futurists have no part soever; never
bad a part. nsveg viii have . part

PRIESTS ON THE BATTLEFIELD
A Letter from Germany Tells CT the
Spiritual Side of War.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Our men fighting to keep ire
enemies off the FatherlanG receive the
Iron Cross. a medal of honor. rs ae-
acknowledgement of their valor. The
Observation-Disclosures of the Red Cross
takes care of their bodily welfare, and
the army chaplains, the champions or
the Holy Cross, help them 10 look atter
the welfare of their souls. Full many
a warrior is anxious 70 receive the
comforts of the sacraments, and there
are numbers of field chaplains and
reverend volunteers who work as nara
at the front as the soldiers. Not that
our men 90 to war without having
cleared their consciences. In the days
of mobilization the Kaiser had fixed a
special day OF prayer and devotion,
and thousands and thousands OF sol
ders went to confession and holy
communion in order to fight the sacred
fight with a clean heart and with the
blessing of God.
As many priests and ministers as
may be at the front, at times, when
circumstances are particularly cOmpn-
Gated. after a tremendous battle, when
thousands of wounded are covering the
ground, it may prove difficult 20 secure
the aid of priest in every place where
it is desired. Then our officers and
our soldiers accomplish the most car
ing expeditions, turn almost impossible
stones to fulfil the wish Of the wound
ed "kameraden" for a priest. The care
of his soul is to them as urgent ana
important a mission as is the stopping
of a bleeding artery TO the doctor.
remarkable episode that happened IN
France gives a good illustration:
A wounded French officer who was
found by German soldiers after herce
battle expressed the ardent desire ior
the aid of Catholic priest. There
were not any around, none to be touna
anywhere. A hurried expedition
searched in vain the district Finally
the German officer in command,
Protestant colonel, succeeded in get
ting into communication with priest
many miles away; yet there was no
possible way of conveying him to tne
battlefield. The colonel, however, did
not lose any time, but called an ayl-
ator, giving him order TO fetch the
priest. Two hours later the minister
of God arrived with the blessed sacrs-
ments to comfort the wounded French
man. The thrilling sensation OF being
carried to his sacred duties through
the air. high above the clouds, and IN
times of war, is an experience the
brave priest will surely remember all
his life. HANS MERN.
