more than the name for set of po-
litical institutions.
No people are more truly demo-
cratic at the core than the Russians.
Ruled indeed by an autocracy, they
are fundamentally democrats, as
their village communities, their COM
mon ownership of the land, their de-
velopment Of cooperative control OF
the tools and instruments Of in
dustry have shown. The Russians
have started about their democracy
along the economic pathway, while
the western nations have followed
the political route. There begins to
be a clearer understanding that po-
litical democracy which gives men
the ballot but retains the elements
of economic feudalism, is not all the
race had hoped for. There is a
cropping, everywhere, for means to
link together the political demo-
cratic ideals of the west with the
economic democratic ideals of the
Slavs. Perhaps it is not too much
to hope that the new Russia, the
Russia that will look out over this
self-searching, interpretive, aspir.
ing world from the new seat on the
Golden Horn, will become useful
coadjutor and potent partner in
bringing at length the real brother.

world, under institutions calculated
both politically and economically tc
promote substantive justice for all

ACTION URGED ON

Isidor Grosner Protests to De-
partment Against Further
Delay as to Avenue Office.

Isidor Grosner chairman Of the busi-
ness mems committee that has been
seeking the establishment of a branch
postoffice in the Postoffice Department
building. today wrote First Assistant
Postmaster General Roper. protesting
against further delay In the testing of
present postal facilities provided for the
business section that the proposed
branch office would serve.
Mr.. Grosner and his committee yester-
day received from Mr.. Roper a letter.
stating that while it is the desire OF
the department to guarantee satisfac-
tory service, and the Postmaster Gen
eral promises to give the petitions sub
mitted full consideration. he does not
desire to order any changes in Postmas-
ter Praegers plans until the latter
shall have had full opportunity for a
test Of their effectiveness.
If. at the conclusion of such a period.
the service shall have been proven un-
satisfactory, and the proposals of the
committee shall offer an Improvement.
Mr., Roper promised that the case Will
be reopened. Meanwhile, Mr.. Roper
called upon the signers of the petitions
to lend their cooperation in maintain
inc an effective service.
In his communication Mr.. Grosner 3D.
vised Mr.. Roper it is the general opinion
OF the members of the committee that
sufficient time has already been given
to the trials of the present facilities
and asked that the department fix a
future date when consideration nigh,
be given to a change in the system.

MINISTER PEZET

Men with what Nicholas Murray
Butler would term an international
mind" who also work with unswerv-
ing zeal and loyalty for their own
country are comparatively rare. One
man of this type is Federico Al
fonso Pezet, minister from Peru, just
recalled from his post here.
Before Washington audiences Min
lister Pezet many times has recount
ed the youthful adventures which
gave him an insight into conditions
in many lands. He is known to have
the confidence Of the people of his
own country, and represents their
spirit and feeling. To him, and to a
small group of South American Dip
lomats like him, is due the highest
credit for cementing the relations be-
tween the United States and its
southern neighbors.
Perhaps the strongest element of
Minister Pezet's success in Washing
ton lay in the fact that his loyalty
never developed into fanaticism, and
was at all times tempered by saw
ing grace of humor. He was as
keenly aware of the faults of the
tempestuous republics to the south
of us as were Americans, and better
equipped to deal with them in SYM
pathetic spirit.
The Washington times., 1915-02-26

fore men cease to fight, and the ap-
plication of force would not restrain
any except the third and lower
classes of powers from waging war.
The fable of the Wind and the Sun
aptly describes the futility Of force
in compelling a human to do a thing.
The Wind ragged and spent its fury
in vain in trying to make the Man
get out of his coat. The Sun went
about it in a quiet but most per-
suasive way, and the Man capitu-
lated. The lure of peace must exert
itself in similar fashion.

Congressman Hamilton Asserts

In the House last night by Congress-
man Hamilton, a Michigan Republican.
who said the President talked to his
Indiana audience of idealsm. theories.

stead Of Treasury deficit. poor busi-
ness and the failure of the tariff law.
Mr.. Hamilton also challenged the
statement of the President that the Re

gan member described in the Record
legislation enacted by the G. o. p. in
the past quarter century
Predicts Bond Issue.
That the Democrats will have to is
sue bonds the coming summer to meet
a Treasury deficit was predicted by Mr..
Hamilton, who said the appropriations
giant, despite the warning of the Dem
ocratic chairman of the House Appro-
prations Committee.
The President didn't tell his Indian
apolis audience that We are running be
hind at the rate Of s14, 900 a month.
and that by the end Of the fiscal year
we shall be running in debt at every
tick of the clock, Notwithstanding tho
income tax. the corporation tax and the
emergency war tax said Mr. Hamii-
ton.
This Administration went into power
with a full treasury and abundant reve-
nues, but the President did not tell his
audience anything about the approach
ing deficit.
Treasury Balance Declines.
He did not tell them that our Trea&~
ury balance has declined from $l6l. f,-
6l5 on the 3Oth day of June last to $4A,o
3S7,lls this morning. and that by July
| next, this Administration Is likely to
have to sell bonds to raise money to run
the Government.
ION the same day on which the Pres!.
dent talked at Indianapolis, the Demuo
cratic chairman of the Appropriations
Committee stated in the House that he
had given considerable study to the pub
lie finances ana to the probable situa-
ton of the Treasury during the next fs-
cal year. and that he could not es-
cape the conclusion that there will he

NO MILLENNIUM

A nation is like the man from Mis-
SQUIRT must be Shown" 1t will
not wear thing until it has been
tried on. One is in error who thinks
there will be no more wars after the
present and who believes that when
peace shall have been concluded
there will be set up either a system
of law with a court of competent
jurisdiction to settle all international
disputes or world police force to
maintain public order among the
powers.
1t is too much to expect that any
settlement will be permanent until
human character is changed, though
there are ways to lessen the posi-
bility of war. The reason is that
civilization cannot be legislated, but
is evolutionary. Wars will not cease
altogether until the nations set about
to determine what are desirable OBJ
jects, and then agree upon plan of
cooperation for the mutual attain
ment of them. So long as selfish
ness rules the chancellories of the
earth and so long as national jeal,
ousy is synonymous with patriotism
just SO long will there be armed con.
ficts between peoples.
Those who are of opinion that ar
international police force is the rem
edy needed for nations with warlike
inclinations predicate their opinion
upon the belief that such police fore.
would never be exercised agains
their own nation. 1t is unlikely tina
any country would agree to any sucl
guardianship, any such supervision
of it's relations with other states al
would be necessary to make a werlt
peace or police force effective.
The advantages of peace mus
astweigh those offered by war be
