Absents. Ownership.

Roger w. Babson. statistician and
economist, In q recent statement said:
1.-The greatest handicap labor and cap
ital have today is absentee ownership.
The present unrest among workers
and the small return upon capital are
due to control in the hands of small
groups-men who try to run big bust
nesses from desks in twenty story Of
flee buildings. Strikes seldom come
against the man who has built up his
own business and lives in the town
where his success has been won"

IS WAR EVER UNSUITABLE?
A Question Put to Two Critics OF
The Tribune.

To the Editor of.The Tribune.
Sir: In to-day's Tribune there appear two
letters one signed &c. F. r. and one "A c.
Grimm" both in support of the Presidents
foreign policy. The first says, "Why not make
Of your editorial page a real debating ground,
on which more than one side Of q question
can be brought FORTH" and accuses The
Tribune OF uniairness in selecting letters for
publication.
Neither Of these writer's advances any rea-
son az 10 why TIE Presidents policy. or lack
OF policy should b, supported. except that ne
has kept US out o. declared war They &C
cuse The Tribune Of unfairness, but not one
word in their letters is about justice or right
which. n my opinion, is quite characteristic
of such writer's.
II their motto is anything but peace-at any
price | should be pleased II either OF them
would state whether he thinks Il right hat
our women should be raped and our men and
children killed in Mexico. Whether il is -ignl
that our soldiers should be placed on the oor'
der to he killed By Mexieans, with order-
which prevent them defending themselves :.
II either Of them had the ma hood 20 be
soldier. would he obey orders and then sup
Port the policy OF the President after seeing
his comrades murdered? Will either of them
say whether he believes our people should
have been murdered OIL board the Lusitania
and the other ships? Do they both approve
OF the sabotage, dynamiting, incendiarism,
ETC.. in the United States directed by the
German and Austrian officials accredited 20
the United States?
Ii they do not approve Of all Of these
things will they kindly state what. if any
thing they think ought to be done about IL!
Do they think war ever justifabe? Do they
condemn Washington and Lincoln because
they were not too proud to fight?
Would either Of them object if the police
force risked their lives in attempting TO ar
rest a criminal who had murdered member
of his family? Several policemen are often
killed in attempting TO arrest desperate
criminal. and this could all be so easily
avoided if they were too proud TO fight.
Instead Of abusing The Tribune it would be
interesting if these writers would indicate
if they have any convictions on any OF these
subjects, or if there is anything dearer to
them than their own precious lives. In other
words. have they any convictions, or are they
merely common towards?

Words Without Works.
r of The Tribune

To the Editor OF Inc Tribune.
Sir: Germany Yields to wilson" "Recog-
milton OF Right Stand" Patient Diplomacy
Wins" etc These were the headlines Of a
short time since How the partisan editorials
stopped over on the subject The pessimistic
comment of Roosevelt, "A valuable promise
if lived up to-" went unnoticed in the grand
chorus Of praise for the modern Moses,
who had so patiently led his people through
the Wilderness OF notes, strong notes, warn
ings, etc, ad. lib.
By the way | would offer the opinion tn It
our distinguished President is the greatest
living exponent of the adage "The pen is
michtier than the sword" | regard him as a
linguistic performer OF no mean attainments.
The Good Book says: Faith, without works,
is dead" In my judgment. words without
works are still deader. If that be possible.
Il is, indeed, a sad day for the country
when il may be truly stated as written home
by McManus just previous to his murder by
Mexicans: 81 have a large American flag over

lection" Prophetic words-and oh, the shame
OF it!

able editorials appearing in The Tribune.

A Political Dynasty Dissolves.

Senator Christy Sullivan, who has re-
lnquished the leadership Of DE Ate

gained such 2 hold on the popular imagl-
nation as Big and Little Tim had, OF
even the redou5taDle Florrie. Neither
did he gain such a grip on politics
He was always a minor member OF the
Clan Sullivan, able to be leader Of his dis
trict, acting with the lieutenants his big
brother had selected for his own aids; able
to be elected Senator from a strong Tam
many section. but unable to carry the
county when he ran for Sheriff, and I'M
able to get much" for his political fol-
lowing. patronage-hungry One trait ne
had. though, which endeared him TO many
of his legislative associates-he never
made speech, he seldom introduced bill,
and usually he signiGed his vote on roll

Sullivan will he left in active politics on

Some Results of Liquor Control.

There is mucn that is encouraging In
the first report of the Central Control
Board, appointed six months ago for the
regulation of the liquor traffic in Great
Britain. The various restrictions, some Of
them of very drastic nature, have been
on trial long enough to justify the drawing
of conclusions on some points. and upon
the whole there appears to be little doubt
that the scheme has proved wonderfully
successful.
Originally the aim was to increase the
efficiency Of workers in the factories, and
for while the regulations were confined
to areas given over mainly to the making
Of munitions. But it was always in the
power of the board to schedule districts at
its discretion, and so the regulations have
gradually been made to govern a great
part of the whole population. So, two
months ago the huge area Of greater Lon
don was rendered subject to several pro-
hibitions, including the no treating order
and the reduction in strength of spirituous
liquors.
1t is not surprising TO learn that prose
cutions for drunkenness have greatly de-
creased, showing reduction of 40 per
cent in England and Wales. Doubtless
the suppression Of treating has had much
to do with this, more perhaps than the
reduction of hours during which intoXi-
eating drinks may be sold. This is point
which it may be hoped has been duly ana
lyzed in the report. Opportunities for
comparison might be found, for in some
Of the areas where treating has been pro-
hbited the old closing hours still prevail.
1t is very likely that the watering Of
brandy, whiskey and rum may also have
proved beneficial not only because of the
increased cost of drunkenness but because
Of the moderation, more or less uncon-
sciously insinuated, in the case of drinkers
who are accustomed to certain number
of drinks a day and would rot feel easy
with less. For the regulations render IL
legal the sale of spirits unless reduced ITO
number Of degrees under proof which
falls between % and 35'
One thing the board appears to be con-
WINGED of is the impossibility of doing away
with alcoholics Of the Jane Cakebread type.
Thus in some of the munition areas they
have been troubled with the temperance
of chronic drinkers, many of whom had
been arrested fifty times and some hun
dred times before. Obviously, such cases
are incorrigible. They are pathological,
however, and relatively of minor conse-
quence. 1t is Of more Importance that
drunkenness among sailors, lockers and
firemen has diminished considerably and
that the general efficiency of workers
everywhere is manifestly increased.
