The Conversion of Secretary RedaeId

IF AN effective law is passed preventing
i foreigners from controlling our markets
Secretary Redfeld thinks that American
chemical works and American manufacturers
OF dyestuffs could develop the dyestuff in
dustry so that we would be independent of
Germany American consumption of coal tar
dyes amounts to about $4,000 900 worth a
year and American production amounts to
only $S.000.000 worth. The Pennsylvania coke
companies could produce coal tar In much
larger quantities If there were a market for it.
Secretary Redheld has started in the right
direction, even though the law which he
wants is one to prevent foreign trusts from
competing with American independent pro-
ducers. It matters not what form the dis
crimination against the foreigner takes any
discrimination acts as a protective duty on
American products AS the Secretary of
Commerce has admitted the soundness OF the
principle as applied TO dyestuffs. he may
therefore be expected to withdraw his eriti-
cism OF manufacturers who are insisting that
the removal OF protection has seriously af-
fected their business. Indeed. Mr.. Redfield

All-roundness

r IFE holds more enjoyment for the young
IL man or woman with many interests than
for those who hold their nose to a single
grindstone. Terence, the Roman comic poet,
had the right idea when he remarked that
as he was man he was interested In all
matters of human concern.
Not long ago one college president said at
the Inauguration of the president of another
institution that it was time for men charged
with the education of the youth to under
stand that young men do not go to college
nowadays to become scholars, but to get
broadening view of life, a certain social
training and a store of memories that will
last them to the end of their days This was
putting Terence's poetry into prose. 1t was
put into goth century business formula when
the late Cecil Rhodes provided in his will for
international scholarships at Oxford to be
enjoyed by young men who Were first good
fellows; second fond of athletics. and last
capable scholars.
There Is consolation in these facts for those
who find it difficult to master their books,
Many dull student is companionable, makes
friends easily, or is skilful in sports or apt
at mechanics. Such "all-round" qualities,
added to a small knowledge of books, have
frequently been more valuable to a young
man than the speciality of the bookworm has
been to him.
While attention is called to the Importance
OF all-round qualities, the need OF special
knowledge of ones business must not be for
gotten. But man may know all about the
technical part of his business and fall, II he
have not the ability to get along with men
And skilled student of human nature, who
draws men to him by the charm OF his man
ner, II he have ordinary diligence in business.
can frequently outstrip his rival who has
neglected an important part OF his educa-
tion.

are strong for participation. The time has
come they are convinced. when Austria can
be humb1ed and the ancient glory Of the
Peninsula revived. The scales seem heavily
weighted In Italy's favor More than that,
by Joining with the Allies now she can prac-
ticaily decide the contest and thus win for
herself prestige and power never hereto
fore deemed possible
1t has been evident for weeks that italy
was certain TO take the field eventually 1t
Is just as clear now that the decisive step
will be taken In the near future. Premier
salandra has given more than one intima-
tion Of the inevitabillty of such action. The
entrance of Italy will change the character
of the conflict, be a mighty factor in hasten
Ing the termination of the war, and will
bring against the amazing German military
excellence a preponderance Of power that
even the great Teutonic machine will not be
able TO overcome. Diplomacy, In SO far as 1t
may determine the course of italy, is as Inn
portant factor in the European military
situation as are the armies in the field

How to Settle the Full Crew Question

FTNHE New York Legislature, acting under
Il better advice than when Sulzer was Gov
ernor, is planning to repeal the full crew law.
The majority of the Senate has agreed on
repeal BILL and the Assembly is likely to fol-
low the lead of the smaller house The bill
provides that the State Public Service Com
mission shall have Jurisdiction over the size
of the crews operating trains, with power to
adjust It to the needs of the traffic on the
different railroads in the State.
The Public Service Commission was cre-
ated to perform functions Of this sort There
Is large group Of questions involved in the
regulation of the railroads which cannot
properly be treated by infexible legislation,
Just as there is large body of subjects
which should never be regulated by pro-
visions in Constitution. The principle may
be laid down very properly in the laws; but
the application of the rule that the railroad
trains should be properly manned can safely
be left to a board of discreet men, just as the
fixing of equitable rates in interstate COM
nnerce Is left to board of men supposed to
be gifted with wisdom The abuses of COM
mission rule are small In comparison with
the evils arising from the attempt of the
Legislatures to prescribe the details of the
operation of railroads or of any other bus-
ness.
We have Public Utilities Commission in
this Commonwealth created to secure fair
treatment of the employees of the railroads, as
well proper service for the public. The
reasons which are leading New York to COM
NIT the full crew question to it's commission
run with equal force here, and ought to lead
TO the proper action in Harrisburg.

Let the p. r. t. Prove That 1t Stands by
Its Agreement


n IRECToR NORRIS pointed out at the
~ transit demonstration Wednesday night
that the politicians at the time Of the at
tempted gas steal in 1906 were not only at
tempting to put one over on the people of
Philadelphia. but also on the company itself
which was likewise unwillingly driven by the
same politicians into an apparent willingness
to be the beneficiary of the steal.
It is not strange that suspicion has been
directed toward the Philadelphia Rapid Tran
sit Company as responsible in fact for the
transit hold-up. The company is on record
agreeing to the Taylor plan. subject to the
approval of the Union Traction Company.
Yet there is no public evidence to indicate
that 1t has ever at any time attempted in
any way whatsoever to influence its sub
sdary to support the program
1t Is generally understood that the p. r. T.
can roll the obstructionists out of the way
by simple declaration that 1t favors the
achievement of It's own agreement.
Said Director Norris, and the great ma
jority of citizens agree with him:
II the OFFICIALS Of the Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company eutIess In this matter,
! now call upon them to dsown this trick or.
dInance reported to Councils and want them
to say to the public that they desire Councils
to pass the ordinances prepared by the De-
partment Of Transit and Introduced In coun-
cIls. II they do not do this they have no Just
cause to complain Of the present growing aus
plcIon that they at the bottom Of the
councIlmanlc action.
No sound objection, either In finance or
engineering, against the Taylor plan has been
brought forward. The influences which are
attempting to prevent rapid transit are selfish
and concealed. 1t is necessary now for the
PHILADELPHIA Rapid Transit Company to clear
its skirts and prove that 1t is not the War
wick that pulls the strings.
