WOMAN SUFFRAGE LEADERS

DR.. Anna Howard Shaw's declina.
tion to stand for reelection to the
presidency of the National American
Woman Suffrage Association may be
regrettable in the eyes Of her fol-
lowers; it cannot check the move
ment which she has been heading.
No great cause is dependent upon
any individual.
DR.. Shaw has been talking woman
suffrage for thirty years and is end
ing her twelfth year as president of
the national association. No one
person has been more potent factor
in advancing the movement to the
position where it is today. As. a
speaker she is in class by herself.
Her witty, subtle, logical and per-
suasive talks have enlisted many
women and men to the aid of the
cause.
DR.. Shaw says that the president
of the association must have ability,
a thorough and complete knowledge
of suffrage work, and be mistress of
sher owl time. and she modestly as
serts that there are women who
would do admirably. There is no
doubt of it, though there have not
always been many DR.. Shaws work.

THE OVERSEAS TRUST PLAN

The Washington State Depart
meht is entirely correct in taking
the position that 1t cannot give Of
fetal recognition to an American
overseas trust which would In effect
gain for one class of American ship
pers preference over others. II
would manifestly be improper for
this Government to permit a for
eign government to determine what
Americans might ship freely, and
what they might not. That would
amount to granting the dominant
sea power an authority quite beyond
the possible limits that American
self-respect could stretch.
But this ought not to be con-
elusive reason why the overseas
trust idea should be abandoned. 1t
is not necessary to classify Ameri-
can shippers, and to say to one
class, "you may" and to another
class, "you may not" The under
lying purpose Of the proposed trust
is to facilitate international COM
merce, within the limits that the
sea power of the allies is able to
prescribe. II is to keep international
commerce within those limits. pre-
cisely as the American Government
itself imposed such restrictions on
commere with the Confedcracy dur
ing the civil war. There is no need
Of making 4 classification, or of
laying down hard and fast rules cal
culated to make, in effect, a classifi-
cation. Every case should be handled
on its own merits, with reference to
the elements involved. 1t is not ap-
parent that there is need of govern
mental cognizance of the plan; there
has been no such attitude toward the
Textile Alliance. the Rubber club,
and other private arrangements for
the protection of particular lines of
business.
This is a practical question, to be
handled by practical methods. 1t is
not such question as ought to be
dragged into the realm of the State
Departments activities. The United
States, itself a great naval power,
has as much concern as any except
the belligerent nations, has far more
concern than any other neutral of to-
day. Its concern is to maintain such
an international attitude toward this
question of commerce as will best
protect our commerce now and con-
serve our naval authority if war
ever comes to us,
The Washington times., 1915-11-28
THE PRESSURE FROM WITHIN

An Amsterdam correspondent OF
the London Mail writes of the de-
veloping economic difficulties OF
Germany, giving illustrations that
are highly suggestive. In one case
it was discovered, for instance, that
on certain international trains
crossing the boundary from Ger
many to Holland, there were always
about twice as many German
guards, ETC., as should have been re-
quired. Inquiry disclosed that these
Germans came across the border at
every opportunity in order to get the
privilege of buying a square meal!
1t was simply an impossibility on
their home soil.
Other testimony dealt with this
food situation. The German indus.
tries are constantly trying to get
workmcn to come from Holland; the
Krupps, for instance, would employ
many hundreds if they were to be
had, and Holland is full of unem.
ployed labor. Yet the Dutch work.
men will not 60 to Germany be.
cause the food is so bad. The bread
is scarce, unsavory, and of low
nutritive value. There is no butter
to put on it. or fats of any kind
Bacon is costing about 80 cents the
pound, and bad at that.
Beyond ali this, Germany is be-
ginning to realize the economic dis
tress that will come after the war
Where shall her millions of fighters
be placed in jobs? Her commerce il
gone. The foreigners that once pro
vided her with raw materials are
not producing those materials now
because German demand has beer
withdrawn. Everything is being or
ganized away from and in antagon
ism to Germany in the commercial
world. The German people are de
manding that the state take owe
the whole responsibility of provid
ing jobs; that it seize all kinds O.
industries and become employer
not temporarily, but in a definite
permanent fashion.

NEW CHANNEL OF CIVIC Ex.
PRECISION

The announcement that Washing
ton pastors, at their federation
meeting next Monday, are to listen
To two laymen discuss the question
Of the fiscal relations of the District
and Federal governments indicates
one new channel in which the
aroused civic spirit of Washington is
finding an outlet.
Hitherto the Pastors Federation
has confined its attention mainly to
matters of church business. With
the beginning of this winter it has
started policy of getting acquaint-
ed with community interests by dis
cussing, each month, some civic
topic. The invitation to Theodore
W. Moves and II. B. F. Macfarland
to outline the contentious of the de-
tenders of the half -and-half method
Of appropriations is the outcome OF
this new policy.
With Washington clergymen inter.
csted in the civic and community
needs of Washington new and po.
tent factor in cultivating a civic
spirit will be created in Washington
In years past the churches of Wash,
ington held aloof from municipal
matters. For the last few years
they have shown an increasing de.
sire to make their influence felt ir
the everyday life of the city. The
city will be better for their CO.
operation.
