AS SEEN BY A WASHINGTON WOMAN,
HAVING YOUR CAKE AND EATING
1T, TOO.

"The woman's humanity shout.
have pleaded in trumpet tones fol
2 her."
This is line quoted from an edi
torial that appeared last week in ,
New York, paper in protest against
the killing of Edith Cavell, the Eng
lish nurse, whose heroism and pa,
triotism have called forth universal
admiration.
That the execution of this plucky
woman was frightful no one could
deny, and that it will always be re-
membered as one of the most strik-
ing instances of the frightful facts
of which all war is composed is also
true But from woman's point OF
view-and there are great many
women who agree with us-therc is
something that does not entirely
partake Of the spirit of the age in the
statement that her woman's human
ity should have pleaded for her. In
most cases the fact that Edith Cavell
was a woman would alone have been
reason enough to bring forth her
pardon. But Edith Cavell probably
did not expect to be pardoned just
because she was a woman. If mere
humanity did not plead for her, why,
in this age VIXEN women are calling
for standards and opportunities equal
to those of men, should we expect
that her ~woman's humanity" wouldi
II women expect to take their part
in the mans world, as thousands
and thousands surely do, they ought
not to expect to retain the privileges
that were granted to them when they
did not take part in that world. If
they expect the privileges of men they
should not expect those of women.
too. If women expect the privilege
of making contracts in their own
names they should also expect and
be glad that they can and will be
held to those contracts.
As a matter of fact women who
are taking their place with men in
the world do not in most cases ex-
peet to retain their special privileges.
There is a desire among women
stronger than men usually realize-l
to play fair, not to squeal, even when
they face the ultimate penalty, as did
Edith Cavell last week.
To the mind of woman the exc
cution of Edith Cavell was frightful
because it is one of the horrors Of
war. 1t would have been just as ter
-ible had the victim been man. She
was obviously playing hazardous
game, she was aiding in the escape
Of Belgian and French soldiers. an
lct which was, under conditions as
hey exist an act of spy. This
he knew and yet she bravely went
m with her heroic work 3
When she suffered the ultimate
penalty the world was, naturally
.nough, reused to intense indigna-
ion. Englishmen at home and in
he army at once concluded that s
Chivalry is dead in the German /;
Lrmy." Yet those same indignant '
chivalrous indeed to the
women of their own homes, are
ometimes the first to forget their
Rivalry when women play role in
he mans world.

FAIR PLAY, ANTS "
PLEA TO WHITMAN
Warn Him of Suffrage Wiles
and Predict Bad Defeat for
'ReVoIutioniSts."

When Governor Whitman went to
Albany yesterday he was pursued by
an eXhortation from the anti-suffrag-
lists 10 keep the door TO the Peoples
House" open TO them. The plea was
Oeeasioned by the pro-sutfrage utter
snees Of Mrs. Whitman at the Hotel
ST. Regis recently, and was IN the form
Of a letter by Miss Alice Hill Chitten-
den, Of Brooklyn, president of the
State Association Opposed to Woman
Suffrage. IL says in part:
you were elected Governor last
autumn on a platform which contained
no Endorsement OF woman suffrage, and
the great majority of those in your
own party and others who voted Tor
you are unquestionably opposed to TINS
revolutionary proposition which strikes
at the roots Of fundamental principles
upon which our governmental as well
as our social structure is based.
"You will find the anti-sutfrage ele-
ment predominates il the capital city
Of Albany, and the fact that only a
minority OF the electors, as well as
only a small number Of women, favor
woman suffrage will be brought home
10 you next November, il not previous
ly, when the woman suffrage constr
tutional amendment will be over
whelmingly defeated in this and three
other Eastern states, as u was last
month in FIVE populous Western states.
"The suffragists' cry for equality
and no privileges is as unsound as It
IS ridiculous when wOman's sex re-
quirements are considered. Women
must have privileges and exemptions
sNeh as men do not require. | wish you
a Happy New Year, a successful ad-
ministration and enlightenment on
both sides Of the suffrage question"

HOLDS ALIENS CAN
BUILD SUBWAYS
Appellate Division Re-
verses Lower Courts
in Test Case.
EMIGRANTS WELCOME
A NEW YORK POLICY
Justice Says City's Enterprise Is
private" Not public
Works"

BY reversing two decisions yester-
day the Appellate Division held that
the Public Service Commission has no
power 20 require subway contractors
TO employ lsborers who are not aliens
A test case and an application for
an Injunction carried the question to
the higher court. William Il. Helm, OF
l Madison Az, brought a Taxpayers
suit TO restrain the commission from
taking steps toward the dismissal OF
aliens employed on subway construc-
ton. Justice Newburger decided
against him, but granted a stay pend
ing appeal.
Clarence a. Crane, a contractor, OF
81 Chambers ST, was convicted IN
Special Sessions on a charge OF ylo-
lating the alien labor Jaw, which pro-
vides that only citizens of the United
States or those who have declared IN
tentions of becoming citizens may be
employed on public works.
All the justices concurred in the
decision. which was written by Justice
Scott 1t says in part:
"The policy of New York has always
been to welcome not only the citizens
of our sister states but emigrants
from abroad to equal participation in
all the opportunities and advantages OF
its business life. If the policy indi-
Gated in the statute now under con-
ideration-Section II of the Labor
Law-had been formulated and carried
into operation half century earlier 1t
may be that the growth and progress
of the state would not now be the sub
ject of so much pride or so gratifying
to all the people az it is now.
1--WE are unable TO see how the pub
lie health, safety or morals can De
affected by the citizenship or alienage
of labofers upon the subways or upon
other works of 2 similar character.
at seems TO be conceded by all the
espondents-Public Service Commls-
sioners-that it would be incompetent
for the Legislature to impose upon pri-
vate persons or corporations not en-
gagged in performing public works such
restrictions as are attempted to be
imposed upon the City OF New YORK
as an arm Of the state"
Further, the opinion asserts that the
subway is n business enterprise OF the
city and was not undertaken by the
city as a sovereign. On this point IRE
siding Justice Ingraham, in an indlvid-
ual opinion, says:
1.-THE city is net building these SUB
ways for the benefit Of the people OF
the state, but for the benefit OF the
municipal corporation. and 1t owns
such subways. and they are, operated
not as public works, but as the private
property of tie city.
at seems clear, therefore, that even
assuming that the Legislature had
mower 10 impose such an obligation
upon the City Of New York by limit
ing the prohibition to public works,
such limitation did not apply TO WORK
of the character described in the com
plant in this action. ,
Therefore, the provision OF this sec
ton OF the labor law did not apply 70
