No New Judges Needed.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: a bill has been introduced in the
Legislature providing for the election Of two
additional Supreme Court judges for the
Ninth Judicial District, consisting of the
counties of Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess,
Orange and Rockland.
The bill has been prepared by some one
who has not given sufficient consideration to
the conditions. and has drawn wrong con-
clusion as to the necessity for the additional
judges.
There are now five justices, Messrs. Hirch-
berg, Mills Keogh, Tompkins and Morschau-
ser, holding trial and special terms IN the
five counties in this judicial district
Two additional judges will make seven, and
with the present amount of work one-haf Of
them would be idle great part of the time.
The conditions do not warrant the passage
Of the bill in question. The additional eX-
pcHses, including the salaries Of the judges,
their secretaries and stenographers. would
amount in the aggregate to at least 100000
a year. and would be an unnecessary and un-
justtiable burden upon the taxpayers of this
district.
The present force of judges in this district
is sufficient to do all Of the business prompt
ly. and if additional courthouse facilities are
afforded at White Plains there could be now
four or five more jury terms year, and we
would have all the judges necessary to take
care of them, and the calendar would soon be
cleared. CLIFFORD COUCH.

Lincoln Bcachey's Death.

What happened to Lincoln Beachey over
San Francisco Bay was bound to happen tQy
him. The detail that he might have come
out alive had he not been strapped IN so
tightly or that his monoplane would not
have crumpled had it been properly braced
cannot alter the conclusion. Whether
from carelessness or an excess OF delib-
crate daring, violent death for the circus
aviator is practically inevitable.
1t is this which makes his encourage
ment a social crime. To produce thrills
he must take ever greater chances. No
sooner has he mastered one convolution
than its staleness drives him to another,
since nothing evaporates more quickly
than public excitement over the same spec
tacle. Such mad progression can have no
other end but death, untimely and spec
tacularly hideous.
And it is not alone the aviator who pays
for this morbid fever which he shares with
the public. Society pays, and pays dearly,
in number Of ways. To begin with, it
loses in the aviator young and valuable
member, whose daring and imagination
might prove of great value if directed in
legitimate channels. 1t loses, too, those
who would emulate him, as Beachey him
self pointed out in referring, two years
ago, TO the deaths of Gene Ety. Horace
Kearney, Charlie Walsh and others, who
would dip or loop the loop or fly upside
down or do any of a number Of things of
no lasting benefit to the world.
But society punished even more by
the blow to the development Of useful
aviation which these catastrophes deal
And finally, the particular community or
occasion responsible for flight which re
suits as Beacheys did suffers grievously
from the repellant association.
"An end to daredevil flying" Mr.. How
ard Huntington, of the Aero Club of
America, has called this latest tragedy. If
only the shock of Lincoln Beachey's plunge
might modify human nature sufficiently TO
make the prediction come true, then this
nervy aviator had not died in vain.

Easy Spending and Hard Shedding.

A remarkable tribute has just been paid
to the Wilson Administrations efficiency
As a spender. Representative John j.
Fitzgerald, the chairman of the House
Appropriations C6mmittee, and Represen-
tative Frederick II. Gillette, the leading
minority member, agree that although
Congress appropriated $1,ll5,O0O,OOO at
the last session, it would have approprl-
ated $4,000, 900 more if the administra-
lions recommendations had been followed.
In the field of governmental economy Mr..
Wilson has made a sorry figure. lie has
never tried to eliminate waste in govern
mental operations. On the contrary, he
has sought to keep the Democrats IN Con-
greSs in line for his anti-busincss legisla-
ton by giving them free hand.
As a consequence his first Congress
has spent $l77OOO,0CO more than was
spent by the last Republican Congress
that of 19O9I11. r the Indian and Post
Office appropriation bills had not failed
at the last session the excess would have
been S1S9 100000. Congress has imposed
new internal revenue taxation to the
amount of nearly $lOOOOOOOO year. Yet
because of waste and negligence current
revenues are running far behind current
outlay, and even Mr.. Fitzgerald now esti-
mates a Treasury deficit at the end of the
fiscal year on June 80 next Of Slo3,OOO'OOO.
This does not include a Panama Canal
deficit of S2O,OOO,O0O.
The European war cannot be held re-
sponsible for this wretched showing
Extra taxes were levied to offset
shrinkage of customs revenues due to the
war. The trouble was that Congress went
ahead at the last session spending money
on scale unknown in the years before
the war. 1t was this neglect of ordinary
precautions in a time Of straitened income
that has brought the Treasury to Its pres
ent condition of emptiness and exhaustion.

The Defenders.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: In your issue Of March Mr.. Ilorna-
day. quoting Ezekiel upon the sword at some
length. says that as all disbelievcrs in organ
zed murder ARE no doubt God-fearing folk
Holy Writ must answer them.
Does Mr.. Hornaday remember, or does he
wish to emulate, that eminent parsonage who
once quoted Scripture for his purposes dur
ing a temptation in the wilderness?
Or perhaps. wncn his eyes alisht upon St.
Paul's, Slaves, obey your masters" he is as
confident that al the God-fearing will advo-
cate the cause Of slavery?
Bishop Greer did his splendid duty as rep
resentatiye of the Prince Of Peace. That an
officer Of the army should perceive the logi
cal end of his occupation, the human sham
5les, is no doubt impossible. But the opti
mistic among US may still hope that John

Pennsylvania whom you quote to-day as re
fusing to make shells, believing It better to

things to destroy manknd'-is a better rep
resentatiye Of our citizenship, more disjnter-
csted, more courageous, than those who en-
roll themselves as the American Legion Of

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: There seems TO be reasonable GER
tainty that the Public Service Commission

A change. 1t therefore behooves the Gov
ernor and Legislature TO make competent

q layman asks, should a majority, if not all
as in the case of the present commission. be

It is seldom that lawyer, however pro-
hcient he may be in his profession, is a
good business man. Certainly, he cannot Law

STOP BUYING EXPENSIVE
COUGH REMEDIES
Make the Best at Home

Money spent for the old style, ready
made, cough syrups in bottles holding
only 2 to 219 ounces is very largely
wasted, because most of them are
composed principally of sugar and
water. Yet you have to pay the same
price as if it was all medicine. Stop
wasting this money. You can make a
better cough medicine at home at one
fifth the cost. Merely go to J. 4.
Kruegers Drug Store and ask for 2
ounces (50c WORTHY of Schiffmann's
Concentrated Expeetorant. Mix this
with one pint of graduated sugar and
one half pint of boiling water, which
makes a full pint &c ounces). This
new, simple, pleasant remedy is qua
ranteed to relieve the worst cough or
cold. Also excellent for Bronchial
Asthma, Bronchitis, Group, hoarsenes
and whooping cough. One bottle will
make enough homemade cough
medicine to probably last the whole
family the entire winter. Children
like it, it is so pleasant to take and it
positively contains no chlorOform,
opium, morphine or other narcotics
as do most cough mixtures. Keep it
on hand in case of emergency and
stop each cough before it gets firm
hold. The above druggist has been au-
thorized to return the money in every
single case where it does not give
perfect satisfaction or is not found
the best remedy ever used. Abso-
lutely no risk in run in buying this
remedy under this positive guarantee
