That a treasury deficit of almost $15O,O0O,O00 by the end of the fiscal year is pos sible, is indicated by the dwindling revenues and eX- cess disbursements carried in the daily statements of the department. It is reported that the administration will sanction the sale of the Pana- ma Canal bonds to make up the deficit. Of these bonds, S24O, 569,OOO remain uniS- sued. By the sale of these bonds the deficit in the treas ury could be met, and the many public improvements might then be inaugurated by the next Congress.

LATENT POWER VS. 4
 HOSTILE ARMY

Toward the close of the session Congressman Hay of Virginia, the Democratic chairman of the committee on military affairs, made one of those ridiculous speeches concerning our national de- fense which brings so much discredit upon the Democrat ic party. In the face of our utter unpreparedness to de- fend ourselves against a for eign foe, this preposterous gentleman declared "that no nation was going to attack the strongest nation on earth. The United States has a latent power greater than any other country or of any other three countries in the civilized world"
 Any one but an absurd per son like MT. Hay must won der what good latent power what good latent power would do this country in the face of a great, disciplined, fully equipped hostile army.

FORGIVENESS

Questions are often raised concerning forgiveness.
 How can we forgive those who have wronged us?
 What do we really do when we forgive people?
 Is it not absurd to ask us to forgive and forget?
 These questions seem very puzzling, especially when we are in the heat of a wrong which has been done. But there is nothing unreaSona- ble or impossible about New Testament forgiveness, after all. Let us remember that forgiveness is in the heart and of the heart. If we love our enemies we have forgiven them already. To forgive is ito dismiss all intention to punish them, all desire for revenge, all hard feelings whatsoever. He who is un- der the rule of love forgiVes a wrong because he does not wish to burden himself with bad feelings or anger or re- venge. His disposition is to- ward peace and harmony.
 To forget may be another thing, but it is not so differ ent, after all. Of course We cannot forget things that have happened merely by be- ing willing to forget them. But forgetting in this sense is teasing to brood over our wrongs and trying Fo think 0t other things.
 i Here is a man who illus trateS forgiveness. His name was Miller, and he was a Dunkard. This happened during the Revolutionary War. Miller was grievously inSulted by a man named Widman, who was afterward caught, convicted of being a British spy, and sentenced ro be hanged. Miller went to General Washington and begged that Widman's life be spared.
 General Washington repli- ed: "I would like to release Widman because he is your friend, but 1 cannot even for

BRITAIN DENIES RIGHT OF TRADE BETWEEN
 NEUTRALS

The text of the BritiSh-in- council on behalf of herself and the allies, which abolish es trade with Germany and .enunciateS new and startling proportions affecting Ameri- can trade adversely, is regard ed by state department off cials as the most sweeping war measure in the history of nations.
 The United States since the beginning of the war con- tended that no belligerent had the right to interfere up- on any preteXt with the com merce between the United States and another neutral country. The British order in council distinctly denies this right; the department of ficials may say this latest British utterance calls for an immediate strong and un- equivocal protest.

Aid as Many as Possible !

Mr.. McAneny's scheme for distribution Of food
from hotels and restaurants TO the employees of
the emergency workshops for luncheon and to
take home to their families is worthy one. 1t
seems to fall short, though, on point Of which
the planners seem especially proud. That is that
it will prevent the formation of bread lines and
the humiliation TO the unfortunate persons who
whereas, it will assure distribution of food TO
those who willing to work.
All that is true; and this plan will mean double
help, in sense, for those few members of the
great group of unemployed fortunate enough to
get places in the emergency workshops. They will
get their wages, small, but still desirable in an
emergency and they will get food for home con-
sumption. Those who cannot get into the emer-
gency workshops will get neither wages food.
The bread lines are dreadful in their implica-
ton of suffering and their indictment of a social
system which brings about such conditions.
Nevertheless. it is better, when unemployment
is so widespread as it is to-Gay, to give a little
aid to all who need it rather than to concen-
This great city ought not TO be so limited in its
resources and spirit of helpfulness that there
could be actual desttution. Yet the fact remains
that there is not money and food enough to 60
around among those who need help. The COM
mon sense view, therefore, is that aid should be
given TO many possible, even if the bread
has to be buttered thinly.

the request that he forward the same

looking after Polish refugees, and LOO
cases of clothing from the Red Cross
have been accepted by the Russian
Ambassador to be forwarded by the
first available ship of the Russian
American Line to the chairman OF the
Warsaw Central Citizens Relief Com
mittee. These contributions of money
and clothing have been sent in answer
to. the most urgent appeals made by
we'll known Poles in Russian Pc and
and Gslicia. No appeals have been
received as yet from Poles in German
Poland, and, therefore, no assistance
has been forwarded to that district.
1t should be apparent, however, from
the composition of the committee and
the resolution which it has adopted
and has adhered to and the manner in
which it's assistance has thus far been
distributed, that it is absolutely non
partisan and has not restricted its as
sistance to the Poles under any par
ticular flag, but is answering as fast
as it can the appeals which have come
to it. All that it needs is more money
and more clothing in order to mitigate
the suffering of these Polish non-com-
batants wherever they may be.

The Washinston Square Players Venture

The "litte theatre" is not new, the theatre for
art only" is not new, but the combination pre-
sented in the theatrical venture now being con-
Quoted by the Washington Square Players at the
Bandbox Theatre is at least unusual Here Is a
theatre small enough to be intimate" group Of
actors and managers who give their services, a
policy which says the only limitation on plays
produced is that "they must have artistic merit.
and belief in the characterization of art which
fixes an admission price of 80 cents. Here also it
is pleasant to note, is standard of production
far removed from the amateur, indeed, one which
in acting and stage setting would be creditable
to an older organization and one Of far greater
resources
Concededly this is all experiment, an expert
ment in field of endeavor which has felt the
years depression to such extent that the pub
lie is distinctly coy regarding things theatrical.
Yet in such experiments is the health of the
theatre. If the American stage is ever to extend
its exhibitions beyond the tired business man"
type of music show and the farces and melodramas
which have been such money makers in the last
couple of seasons, il will be by reason OF the
competition and example Of such organizations as
the Washington Square Players.
There is great interest these days in dramatic
material which the commercial theatre will not
produce-wtness the increase of published plays
and the sale of these volumes. Since any play
worth the name lives better on the boards than
between the covers of book, that interest ought
to be extended readily 20 such work as the Wash
ington Square Players are doing. This is an eX-
pertinent well worth watching. Whether it sue
ceeds or fails the financial side, it is bound to
furnish stimulus and suggestion for AL who are
concerned with the drama.

have existed in all universities from their begin

The State of Texas must choose between local,
unrecognized college clubs, with no reputation TO
maintain and little publicity to fear, and the chap
ters of national bodies with well established repu-
tations and standards. Faculties in every college

IN LAST YEARS CAMP.

They stole the sorses glory, they scared the foss at
play,
They yearned for Tippersry on every woodland way;
Their tent peaks pricked the dawning, their bugles
shook the dew,
While the encamped Division became the men We
knew
The tents we're struck at twilight the ppers skrled
cry,
The stars came out in Heaven to bid the lads good
bye,
That night they took the Old Road, the straghtcst
road that runs,
Deep with the dust OF armies and craven by their
guns.
Now tente,s lie the moorands, the glsdes most
lonely are;
But still the russet ponies stand soemny sfar;
And still think they hesrken, and know the sound
of men
The marching tramp OF heroes shall not Sc.
. again.
Now leave we to its glory the camp Of yesterday,
Vex not its echoes lightly-their souls may come
this way,
The lads who cut the bracken when beechen leaves
we're red,
And ere the cuckoos calling, Englsnd's Death
less Dead.

THE HUMANITARIAN HOBO
Seeking to Play His Part in the Evolution Of Social
Welfare.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: The Hobo tries to be honest, to be simple to
be direct.
believe that the whole trend of social evolution
is toward the goal of human happiness.
The Industrial Workers of the World may get out
and get feed without paying, but this is not the
process of social evolution.
We have seen great change in economic,
unemployed social and all other conditions of life
and work in New York City this winter.
The dead lift of unknd and unfair treatment of
the Hobo life now lies behind
The real art of understanding the Hobo can only
come when there is surplus of good will accumu-
lated
There is no lack Of resources among the Hoboe.,
material spiritual, for carrying out their half in
this great sociological plan of evolution
We have brains and inspiration enough. The only
reason that the mill is grinding slowly is that
the miller is overworked and that the hopper is
choked. We are letting few do the work we should
all be helping in.
You may talk about patriotism, but in what does II.
consist If not in helping country (or city, sue
ceed in her particular mission?
Our mssion-the elevation of humanity-is one
in which every citizen should have a share or he
is not an American citizen in the spiritual sense
The poor must give Of their little; the working
man must not seek TO monopoze the labor market:
and the rich must give Of their plenty, their time
their culture, their wealth
We cannot hasten evolution along this line-but
We can help to make better conditions for some Of
those who have their little parts to play.

Tho it's dull at whiles;
Helping, when you meet them
