JOBS FOR WOMEN

1T is jobs that need" says Dean Johnson Of
New York University IF they could an find something
to do that would interest them pay them enough
that they could live decently l think would very
hear little about this terrible which
o be causing so much trouble these days"
It's doubtless true In spite OF all the sentiment that
has been wasted who forced their
homes and go into the world to earn their living
rs likely that most of these women far more
onented doing something in the world" than they
would be at home, engaged in petty useless
folding their hands in oldfashioned dleness.
Idleness pals a live woman no less than a live
man And the idleness of unemployed women becomes
more and more intolerable by the domestic
tasks that belonged the feminine Of the
household have been taken from her by the social
organization. Her wool spun cloth is woven her
garments readymade and her children Her
fruits and jeles canned in factories. Her bread
is baked just well and cheaply she bake it,
Her butter milk are delivered her door Efficient
and inexpensive aundries relieve her backbreaking
toll Vacuum cleaners tighten her work Everything
tends give her leisure than grandmother had
And with the energy released by this leisure it
would be remarkable indeed if she restless"
particularly when almost any brains feels that
she could make than enough money in congenial
employment to employ unambitious servants for her
routine homework.

GETTING RID OF MEXICO.

il Gen. Carranza handle the Mexican situation him
self let him do it,
There has never been time during the Mexican reign
Of when this nation would not gladly have upheld
Caranzas hands if we could have been sure that he
had the requisite power that he meant to carry out the
legitimate purposes revolution and that he would
treat the United States other foreign governments
with the proper consideration. Nearly all Carranzas
troubles have been caused by his own arrogance and I'M
reasonabeness
He shows signs now Of common sense and discretion.
His reply to the invitation that join in the conference
with representatives of the United states and Latin
American powers to consider the restoration of peace in
Mexico has been dignihed and courteous AT last he
recognizes the sincerity and noble desires Of the gov
ernments making the proposal He is stu opposed to
any show of foreign Intervention" has not been
suggested by the American powers-and is willing to con
fer ON matters of international interest He proposes
conference somewhere in his own territory and main
tans that there be question now of his right to
speak for Mexico because he controls 4he, greater part
of the national domain"
How well Cauanza controls is open to serious cues
ton Anarchy is st reported in many sections and Ger
tanly northern Mexico far from peaceful in spite of
Villas defeats
Nevertheless, Carranza today Yields more power ap-
pareny than all the other rebel chiefs together And if
he really can subdue the remaining indictments and con
duct himself as the head Of a responsible government
by all means let government recognize him as sooa
as the necessary have been given It would
be tremendous load national mind at this vexina
time TO be rid of Mexico.

PROMISES WITHOUT PERFORMANCES.

The trouble with Germanys assurance Of reform in her
submarine warfare is that is only in
theory with application any particular
case
Germany promises not to attack passenger ships unless
they first attack her submarines or try to escape when
warned and she that she instructed her
submarine commanders to that effect But she leaves
it to the commanders their discretion any
concrete case, and stands ready apparently them
up in any excuse they see fit to give.
In the Arabic case the thought the liner
going to try to ram him or at least he reported that
he thought So or the government reported that
the commander reported that he thought So And that
settles it-for Germany. The fact that nobody on
the liner-captan, crew or passengers-saw the sub
marine all, makes difference.
In the Orduna case submarine fred torpedo without
warning; and when it missed and the liner steamed on
the submarine sheled her till she of range And
Germany calmly reports that the commander reports
that it dark he mstook the nationality Of the
ship. In both cases she refuses reparaton
These of course the Aimsiest of Yet a
great government them nullify the effect of
pledge solemnly given us by its ambassadors may
keep on promising and lodging indefinitely
Such equivocation Of course, is than no pledge
ALL for the nation by raising hopes and then
dashing them down again
How much longer is Germany going to treat the United
States credulous and ignorant child? And how much
longer the States going to stand for such treat
