Obvia,inf the Thaw Absurditl.

Every one will wish success for the renewed
efforts Of the state Bar Association TO get RIO OF
the absurd verdict mot guilty by reason OF IN
sanity" under which Harry X. Ihaw IS con-
timing menace to society. The last Legislature
psssed bill substituting guilty but insane the
sensible course. Unfortunately, this was vetoed
nv the Governor, owing TO the objection of several
District Attorneys who feared that some muir
derers might escape the electric chair by entering
this nlea. The new proposal is that if such plea
&c entered the court may order its trial.
II discussion does not disclose any sound criti-
cism of this legislation the sooner it is passed the
better. The insane murderer of the Ihaw type is
q far more dangerous member of society than the
sane one. Yet under our euphemistic law he &C
ouires a non-criminal record, and if he has money
and lawyers enough can live life of comparative
freedom. including constant opportunities for es-
cape and the repetition Of his crime Let us end
this nonsense forthwith.

WHY AMERICA FAILS
Only by Adopting Germsny's System
Can We Get Her Trade.

To the Editor Of The Tribune. -.
Sir: Capture Germanys lost trade
before the "keen Americans" get II Is
the British shibboleth at present.
Every one is alert TO see British trade
expand and encompass the earth. All
are fully alive 10 the possibilities OF
the markets hitherto controlled by
Germany, and are. deliberately prepar-
ing to meet the situation. Several I'M
portant trade associations have recent
iy been launched, the sole purposes OF
which are TO promote the sale OF
made In England" goods And to this
end the British government, to ITS
credit be il said gives its cordial and
helpful support.
II group Of our American manu-
facturers in the states were to similar
IL combine 20 proiitably promote the
expansion of our foreign business they
would be indicted for violating the
sherman antitrust law. They must
therefore not only individually COM
pete with the world, but with one an
other as well. Is ii any wonder then
that there are so many depressed IN
dustries in the United States? In every
other country of consequence legisla-
tive interference with business organi-
cation except in a regulative way as
against restraint of trade is taboo.
WHY should the United States be the
exception? We Americans no less re-
ouire protection from unqualified and
mischievous competition, which IS only
TO be obtained through trade organiza-
tions-by regulation, not prohibition"
The recent timely article re anti
trust law restrictions emanating from
important New York financial inter
ests attracts attention here, for the
British are not worrying about any
competition except American competi-
ton, and they will not long worry
about us when they fully comprehend
the antitrust law handicaps of our
manufacturer.
Germany's admirable laws for the
regulation and encouragement Of or
gained competition have been the
means by which in brief period OF
time its commerce and industry
reached a high state of development
and immense proportions At this i'm
portant juncture IN the worlds affairs
If the United States would adopt Ger
many's able system for the regulation
of trade organizations, and substitute
it for our prohibitive antitrust laws,
our American industries in all lines
would Immediately resume their for
mer activity and prosperity.
The time has come. 1t seems TO me.

CITY WORK THAT STOPPED
A Critic Who Wants 177th ST. Paved
Forthwith.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: II an example we're needed OF
the hypocrisy of certain elected Of
fcials the following should suffice:
Hiding behind the consistent attitude
taken By the Controller and President
of the Board Of Aldermen. who do not
believe i'm buncoing the public by prom
ising the unemployed what they cannot
fulfil. we have the spectacle OF some
other officials saying: III Mr.. Prender-
CAST and Mr.. McAneny were with US we
could start city work for the unem-
ployed."
What. then. OF the Borough President
Of Manhattan, who two months ago
commenced TO newly pave 171th St, be
tween Audubon az. and st. Nlchola
av.? After setting the new curb the
Job was abandoned, simply because we
had a few days OF freezing weather
Now the street Is far worse than be
fore. II is sea OF mud, extending be
vond the st. Nicholas av. sidewalk line.
Thousands of people every day are COM
pelled to leave the ST. Nicholas av.
sidewalk az Nth St, also at ll6th ST.,
where the same muddy conditions pre-
vail.
Here IS a situation where there is no
excuse whatever for delay. The money
is appropriated, the work was started,
the weather has been mild enough to
have finished the job long ago:

MEDICINE VS.. THOUGHT
A Plea to Physicians for a Liberal
Attitude.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: | note in the daily press that
case against Mr.. F. ". Sears,
New Thought leader, for practising
medicine without license has been
continued indefinitely. II seems to ne
that such case shows the antago-
nism of medical societies TO any sys-
tenn of healing opposed 70 their own.
Understand that am not New
Thoughtist nor even an attendant at
their services, but | know some very
well-known writers, musicians, artists
and professional people VINO go 70
hear Mr.. Sears talk every Sunday, and
there is, from what they tell me,
nothing in mis- teachings except con-
slant plea for clean and uplifting
thoughts. As ! understand it, the work
of the New Thought people is for a
clean consciousness.
For that reason | cannot understand
why he or others in the same work
should be submitted 20 the indignities
of an arrest for holding their own re-
ligious views.
The recent arrest OF Vernon Cole,
who was Christian Science practi-
toner, brought out the fact that many
of his patients had been unable TO OBJ
tain relief under medical treatment,
but had under the Christian Science
method.
The doctors are doing grand and
noble work but they should learn the
most supremacy important lesson OF
all, and that is, mind your own bust
ness"
1t Is peculiarly significant that one
never hears of the patients of the
metaphysical schools of healing COM
plain of being mistreated or neglected
the evidence for the different ar
rests comes from a hired woman de-
tective, who has been tangled in her
testimony several times and admitted
that she made false statements to gain
the confidence of the persons she
sought 20 arrest. IL seems 10 me
merely an Observers a rather good
way to swing sympathy TO the schools
Of healing not allied with the so-called
regular" schools. FAIR PLAY.

"A DISGRACE TO CIVILIZATION
The Reply of Loyslist German Who
Reads The Tribune in Spots.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | refer 20 your editorial in to-
days Tribune entitled "A Disgrace 20
Civilization" in which you urge Ger
man loyalists in this country 10 rise
and speak out in protest against the
brutality of the aerial attack on Eng
land
While ! do not share your opinion
that this attack had no other purpose
than 10 terrorize England and to raise
a cheer in Berlin and was without a
"vestige or pretence Of military pur-
pose" ! thoroughly agree with you that
the loss of life and hardship caused is
most deplorable. But c'est la guerre,
and civilians who are unfortunate
enough TO stand in the road of mill
tary operations cannot be spared, and
no military commander would be con-
sidered doing his duty II he would
stop the bombardment of a city or
town simply because some non-com-
batants were there. ! do not believe
that the movement had no military pur-
pose. The German General staff does
not proceed on such lines. as is we'll
known, and every one of its moves has
a most distinct purpose. IL IS also
ridiculous TO assume that the attack
was instituted to raise cheer IN
Berlin" You purpose!y forget entirely,
although you know very well, that Ber-
lin needs no such news 10 be cheered.
