Going 1t Blind"

Under the heading Going it Blind" the Sat
urday Evening Post recently called attention to
the one big and glaring defect in our American
system of so called popular government. The
Post said:
1T is strange that in country so demo-
cratic as the United States there is no way of
ascertaining public opinion. Hardly ever do vot-
ers have chance to declare their will on any ma
tional issue. When the Commons proposed to
tax land values, for example, and the Lords re-
sisted there was an election that particular
question; and when the votes counted no
reasonable doubt remained that the famous
Lloyd George Budget embodied the will of a ma
jority of the British electorate.
Nothing of that kind ever happens In this
country. Only by inference can we say that the
majority of voters favor tariff revision, for in
the last presidential election the ow-tariff party
got only forty per cent. of the popular VOTE Pro-
ponents and opponents of the trust measures now
before Congress declare that those measures are
tremendously important; but there is not a scrap
of evidence that the ma jority of voters approve
them.
"A well-organized aggressive minority will
always make much greater impression on poll
Take the question of national prohibition which
is evidently coming to the fore. Congress may
pass resolution for constitutional amendment
because a dozen leaders guess that a jOrlty OF
the people want it passed. Again, aggressive
well-organized anti-prohibition minority in more
than one-fourth of the states may defeat the
amendment, though a decided majority of the
national electorate may favor it.
meantime there will be the most positive
assertions that the majority of the people dc
want it and that the majority do not want it
With small trouble and expense that question
might be settled by letting voters make cross
opposite Yes or No at the next election"

By JOHN c. FOSTER,

LONDON, Feb. 13 (By Mail to New
York; German soldiers are honestly
assisting in the distribution of Ameri-
can food to Belgian sufferers. This as
sertion was made today by James NJ.
Bennett, of Roanoke, Va, who has
just returned from a motor trip
through Belgium, on which he was &C
companied by Colonel Listoe, the Am
ercan consul general at Rotterdam.
Mr.. Bennett emphatically denied the
charges made by English newspapers
that part of the food contributed by
Americans for the Belgians had been
stolen by German troops.
The Germans are not touching a
crumb of the food which is being sent
in," he declared. $50 far as could
see, the Germans are honestly help
ing"
On his tour he visited Malines, Brus.
sells, Dinant, Namur, Liege, Louva1n
and other places, and closely observed
the methods of the American com
mission for relief in Belgium.
"The work of the commission ie
wonderful" he said. ITS simply clock
work. did not dream anything like
1t could be done in so short time
wherever l went saw a long line
waiting for bread. Some of those ir
it were we'll dressed. Yet in theii
faces was a look of utter hopeless
ness. l saw Cardinal MERCER in Ma
lines, and he put into words what
saw in the faces of the people: If yor
in America do not continue to send u:
food said the cardinal, we shall
starve.'
That is the story Of the nation II
a nutshell. Everywhere I went there
was a cry of More! More!'

Paved Streets

A North street property owner in speaking
against the proposed paving of that street ad-
vanced an argument in defense of his position
which in reality is the very reason why the city
government should cling tightly to it's announced
policy of paving the principal streets in the fu-
ture when there was necessity for improving
them.
you can macadamize a street at cost ap-
proximately one-third of the cost of putting
down brick paving" this remonstrator said,
land the difference will easily pay for the up
keep of the street."
All of which is perfectly true, but to avoid
the constant outlay of money for the maintenance
of heavily travelled streets is the very reason
which prompted Mr.. Bavis of the board to advo-
cate permanent street improvement program,
and which caused council to indorse such policy.
Macadam streets have enjoyed great popu-
larity with Richmond property owners for many
years because the city has always shouldered the
entire cost of their construction. But such
streets as are located in sections of the city
where traffic is heavy have always been white
elephants on the hands of the city because they
are constantly having to be repaired or remade
When such an expense can be avoided the city
government is clearly justified in taking such
action. Permanent streets mean better Streets

Of health, because Hurry is Repub-

recommit on third reading a two-thirds
majority is needed. There followed
several speeches for the bill and it
carried, SO to 38. Feick and Sare led
the attack, while Niblack and Pierce
favored it.
