GLARING NEGLECT OF THE
ARTILLERY CORPS.

Thomas +. Logan. in Leslie's.
In the many discussions of unprepar-
edness, scant attention has been accord
ed the coast artillery corps of the army.
Yet here is the most glaring example
of the short sightedness of Congress
with respect to our national defenses.
Should there come a war with a mari
time power. the United States Is pro-
vided with approximately one-siXth Of
the number of trained men necessary TO
make the coast defenses effective imme-
diatelv. Considerably more than one
half OF the splendid armament and splen-
did equipment of the coast fortihoatlons
of continental United States Is in the
hands of caretakers. In 1907 Congress
authorized l70 companies of coast artil-
lery The actual strength comprises
74S officers and some Il 900 men. Since
1907 the personnel has not been in
creased, although additional fortifoa'
tions have been constructed in the Phil.
jppines. on the Panama Canal zone and
in Hawaii. The result has been the de-
pletion of the forces at many of the inn
portant fortifcations. At a hearing be-
fore the. Senate military committee on
the subject OF national defense last win
ter. senator lNoWdc. uA NtiNl"1'f "
clared the situation with respect to tho
coast artillery~to be absolutely criminal
senator DUPONT, of Delaware. coneurred
in this opinion. Brig. Gen Erasmus Nj.
Weaver. chief of the coast artillery, told
the committee that there were about
POI officers and 1000 men now IN the
coast artillery in the United States
proper who are fairly competent to nun
age the coast dofenses, which have cost
the nation millions and millions Of dol
lars to construct and equip The num-
her is a mere triae as compared with
the number that would be required
should the country 90 10 war. ut
should be UNDERSTOOD said General
Weaver. "that if we Should have war
with maritime power this whole equip
ment would have 10 be effective al
once The coast line Immediately would
heroine the threatened line, and there
would be no time TO train men TO de-
fend t."

Editorial Opinion
MONEY TO KFEP

MONEY TO KEEP
THE FLAG FLYING
From the Philadelphia Public Led
ger.
The Democratic administration is
now brought face to face with a grave
financial problem. Where is it to pro-
cure revenue sufficient to pay for the
larger national defense wnicn the
whole country is demanding? As the
result of inadequate extravaganza.
the administration brought the gov
ernment to the end Of last year with
a net deficit of S35,OO0.OOO. But that
deficit is growing rapidly at the rate
of half million dollars every day,
with no check in sight. Still worse,
the new sugar tarin will soon cut
down revenues from thar source so
greatly that another half-million defi-
cit every week is promised in that
quarter. The country which is still
at peace with the whole world is now
paying a heavy war tax, but that tax
will end with the current year. I'm
less It be renewed by act of Congress
there will be another lack of income
for the government which will add
nightly to the already swelling deh-
cit.
Thus, great questions which Con-
gress must answer very promptly
are these How can the laws be
changed so as to place the Federal
government upon an even keelf
Where can the huge sums demanded
for national defense be obtained?
Evidently the next session is to be
no time for cheap clap-trap or stump
speech oratory at Washington. Con-
gressmen must realize that their
duty to the country is of more i'm
portance than making campaign lit
erature for themselves. If that su-
gar tariff has TO be kicked into the
limbo Of discredited legislation, no
body will suffer and the Federal
Treasury will be much benefited II
other tariff schedules which have
done nothing but cut revenue need
revision. let no Congressman hesi-
tate to eat the dish Of crow which
his own lack of foresight prepared.
The program for a more rational de-
tense in the shape of greater army
and navy is imperative, and IL is up
to Congress to provide the funds. Pet
theories must take a back seat when
it is a case of keeping Old Glory
on top.

RETIRED OFFICERS AND PREpAREDNEss

COME OF the best of Americas army officers are on
~ the retired list Most Of them would be only too
gad to serve their country any effective capacity in
time OF stress They should not be lost sight
OF ny those who are in charge the present nation
wide campaign IN favor of preparedness for war in de-
Tense OF the honor and integrity of the United
states Their training and experience should serve 10
make them exceedingly potent factors in the prosecu
ton Of such work
II is admitted that the War Department is greatly in
need Of additional officers The last army approprs-
uon Dill provides that officers who have been retired
Tor disability but who have subsequently recovered TO
an extent that makes them ht for active duty may be
restored TO service by the President That restoration
carries with 1t the rank that officer would have
attained had his health permitted him TO remain in
active service. Only such officers as can meet the
regular mental and physical tests may be so restored
The law also protects the promotion Of those officers
who are now in the active service by providing that
each retired officer who is shall be super
numerary IN his grade. II will be seen therefore that
no one would suffer and that the nation would benefit
by utilization Of the ability of retired officers MANY
such men are in prime condition mentally and physi-
cally, today. No doubt most Of them would be well
pleased 10 return to duty and to play their part in
bringing their nation to state of military prepared
ness Under present conditions they are receiving
three-quarters pay for doing nothing The nation
which must have additional officers would save money
by restoring them to full service and full pay
More than score Of retired officers have made for
NAL application TOP reinstatement II Is natural to
suppose that those who pass the test will be placed
on the active list 10 the that to that extent at
least the deficiencies of our military establishment
may be repaired

sHAME ADDED TO SHANE.

60 NJ. FRANK, alleged slayer Of Mary Phagan, has
II been taken from prison by mob and ynched.
Georgia's measure OF shame has been filled to over
howins. Her officials, who permitted such a crime to
be committed are the objects OF the nations condemna
ton and contempt
large majority of the people of the United States
believed honestly in the utter innocence of the unfor
tunate young Jewish manufacturer Public sympathy
was stirred profoundly by his manly struggle for life
in an atmosphere that was surcharged with religious
prejudice and hatred. The good wishes Of the people
accompanied him he made appeal after appeal for
justice.
When finally every avenue of escape had been closed
to him except appeal to Governor saton for execu-
tive clemency. hundreds OF thousands of Americans
asked the Governor 10 Frank from the gallows
by committing his sentence to life imprisonment
Disregardng the protests and threats Of the Jew
haters and Jew-baiters. the Governor granted that
commutation. Frank taken to the State prison
farm Following that the demonstrations against the
Governor sinister that Il necessary to call
out the State militia to protect him and his home
II thought that several months at least the
Frank had been disposed Of and that nothing more
would be heard Of II until his friends moved for par
don The sensibilities the nation were soon out
ragged, however by the announcement that Frank had
been placed in a cell with a murderousminded con-
yct and that while the young manufacturer sleep
ing, the convict had attacked him with knife cut
his throat and inflicted wounds that probably would re-
suit in his death.
Tenacious Of life. and filled with desire to have
time in which to vindicate himself Frank survived
that outrageous and was we'll on the road to
complete recovery when the mob broke the prison
last night, took him away and killed him near the
home Of Mary Phagan
regrettable feature of the that there lit
tie likelihood that any Of those who committed this
crownng crime against the young and society will
be brought TO punishment. The mob has merely done
what the legal machinery of the State attempted TO do
and what it would have done If Governor Slaon had
not exercised his executive power and stood between
it and its victim.
II is unthinkable that the murder Of Frank carries
with it the approval Of the far-mnded and intelligent
elements in the population Of Georgia Those elements
no doubt will join with the Of the people of this
country in condemning not merely crime but series
OF crimes against an unfortunate young man by a
commonwealth that has fallen greatly in public es-
TEEN a result OF its sins of commission and omis-
sion in this sensational case

Munitions and Morality
National and International
(From the New York Hereld.l

In a letter to the Boston Trans
cript Professor Kuno Francke asks
whether 1t is moral. from the nation
al and International points of view.
for the United States to permit Amer
ican merchants to continue the manu-
facture of munitions and the sale Of
the products of their factories to ma
tions engaged in war. Professor
Francke agrees that an embargo
against the export of munitions would
be on unneutral act because "it
would make the United States in a
strioter sense legally a partisan OF
one of the warning powers than mere
non-interference with this traffic
does" but asks, "If as is by no
means impossible. the continued sale
of arms TO one of tie belligerent
groups from an officially neutral
country should finally come to be one
of the decisive factors in the issue
of the war, would that be an issue
to which the United States would
have a reason 10 poirt with pride as
a victory of international neutrality?
Professor Francke is entitled to an
answer to his question This an
swer can only be frankly and firmly
in the affirmative.
The universally recognized right
of manufacturers of neutral nations
to sell the products of their factor
les to belligerent buyers is grounded
in the highest morality It's founda-
ton principle is the right of nom

II was calculated that the cost to
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
would entail an additional expendi-
ture of more than $500 600 a year. a
prospect that could not be entertained
with complacency. Like other Amer
ican ships engaged in this trade,
those of the Pacific Mail were man
ned largely with the Oriental crews
and could not hope to compete With
the Japanese, whose officers and men
are mostly Of the same nationality
and speak the same language.
There was never the least reason
to doubt what the result of the La
Toilette act would be. II was point
ed out and insisted upon repeatedly
by all whose judgment was at all
worthy Of consideration. II was
shown that nothing could be more
prejudicial to the very class it was
supposed TO benefit The folly and
stupidity of the provisions were care
fully explained. but the legislators
refused TO listen 10 the only opinions
worth having, and with incredible
lack of foresight obeyed the bidding
of irresponsible mischief-makers pro-
Tossing 10 be the friends of labor
AT the eleventh hour the Depart
ment of Commerce undertook to give
the matter further consideration and
1t was admitted that the President
was mot entirely familiar with the
situation" Is it unreasonable to hope
that what is now going forward may
convince those concerned in this per-
nicious piece of legislation that il
cannot possibly be of benefit to any
but the Japanese?

LET THE TEST CONF.

NITY SOLICITOR HASTINGS has advised Mayor
~ Price and City Council that the appointment Of
William P. Whine to the Office OF City Auditor is
legal.
Council has authorized the sale of 100000 of street
improvement bonds Those bonds must bear the sig
nature of the City Auditor
In view of the fact that Samuel c. Biddle contends
that he is still City Auditor it may be necessary to
settle the question before the bonds are issued
Such litigation may delay II will be Infinitely
preferable however, to making any surrender to Bid

men much more deserving Of it. and who would like to
have it and its emoluments for another term.

by the other city officers. II should be defended by
The municipality against all comers and especially
against man who has been at the public crib four
years and who seemingly does not know when ne has
