Fire Underwriters Going Il BIZ strong.


Agitation for increased fire alarm proven
ton and fire fighting equipment for Omaha has
brought out detailed statement from the en-
cheering authority Of the National Board of
Underwriters, which II fully carried out in ad-
dition TO existing facilities, would render Omaha
almost q paradise for fire insurance companies.
II would be NEXT to impossible for building to
take fire, and n that phenomenon did exist.
It Is inconceivable that any serious loss could
occur. Next to 'stationing fireman ON duty at
all times In each building within the city limits,
the insurance people have asked for about
everything else imaginable as the price OF ad-
vancing Omaha to a classification entitled to
lower rating schedule II is out OF the question
that Omaha meet these requirements within a
number OF years, because Of the colossal expense
involved and the large amount OF work neees-
sary Go carry out the physical details OF the pro-
gram.
Omaha citizens have steadily sought to
improve the condition OF their city as to fire
risk. Substantial improvements have been made
In water supply. in personnel and equip
ment Of the fire department and in other
ways to add to the safety from fire risk.
Vigilance Of inspection has been increased
and preventive measures extended and even now
a considerable expenditure for improved APP
paratus for the firemen is contemplated. but to
no apparent avail 30 far as relief from exorbl-
tant rates are concerned Does II not seem
reasonable for US TO look TO the underwriters TO
show some signs Of reeognizing what has been
done instead of insisting on hogging it all for
the insurance companies?

aermann,s Request for Time.

While II has brought some little relief to
situation so tense and delicate that 1t turns al
most on trifies the German request for an OPP
portunity to present its version Of the Arabic
sinking lie not occasion for surprise Under the
circumstances Germany could not be expected
to maintain silence. unless actually seeking rup-
ture with the United States. This contingency
is remote, and not now worth serious considera-
ton. As we said in our original comment on
the case OF the Arabic. fairness requires that
the German side of the story be heard, provid-
ing the request for time is not merely q dilstory
move. The United States will not take action,
whatever its course may be- until 1t has been
finally and fully advised in the matter. The
German government undoubtedly realizes the
gravity of the situation as regards its continued
friendly relations with this country. and for this
reason is expected at Washington to make its
showing without unnecessary delay.

In Jefferson's Footsteps.

Former Governor Alva Adams Of Colorado
touched off a fine bit OF fireworks in the gov
errors conference at Boston when he objected
to any reform in state government, looking to
extension OF the governors share In its admins
tration saying such would be departure from
Jeffersonian and turning to Hamiltonian
principles. Nothing seems to set on an old line
democrat like the fear Of any OF Alexander
Hamiltons ideas being incorporated in our
political life and next is his aversion to follow
ing any but the footsteps Of Thomas jefferson.
A century OF test has proven that Jefferson was
wrong on some points, and particularly the un-
due restriction OF the power OF the executive.
President Wilson, himself, has been one of the
most notable of vandals when 1t comes to pre-
cedent. The government OF the United States
has lived only because old John Marshall burst
through strict construction OF the constitution.
and gave its spirit such vitality as permitted
needed expansion of the functions OF govern
nent. The present situation is not what It was
in Jefferson's time, and many things tolerable
than are no longer expedient or desirable. No
fundamental principle OF democracy Is endan-
gered In an effort to make government more
serviceable as we'll more responsive to the
people.
