compiled by the general staff Of the

ENGLAND AND BELGIUM

1t is not difficult to understand
this statement by Sir Edward Grey,
the British foreign secretary, be-
fore the house of commons yester-
day:
Unless neutral nations are prepared
to assist in throwing the Germans out
or Belgium no suggestions from them
In the matter Of preventing the fur
ther devastation Of that country are
wanted.
1t would be most questionable pro-
cedure in any event for neutral ma
tions to propose any program affect
ing conditions in Belgium in wartime
it might even be violation of neu-
trality to attempt anything of the
kind. The allies, in the light of Sir
Edwards remark, want no entang-
ling circumstances to intervene if
Germany's day of judgment should
come to pass, for then, undoubtedly
strict accounting would be made
for all that Belgium has suffered
and King Albert's country will be
compensated to the last farthing.
For Belgium's woes the German
army is responsible, because the out.

Elmendorf Clears Map

The artistic hand Of Dwight Elmen-

map of Europe for the benefit OF a
thousand odd Washingtonians at the
National Theater yesterday and showed
them parts Of England. Belgium. hol-
land. Germany. Austria. and Hungary
as most travellers like to think OF those
countries.

ply of the bus driver and the stirring

MAJOR SYLVESTER

The Police Department with which
he has been 80 long connected and
for which he has accomplished much
good work, owes its thanks to Major
Richard Sylvester, as the community
owes him its appreciation, for the
fact that in submitting his resigna-
ton he did an unselfish public serv-
ice. No matter how confident Major
Sylvester may have been that an in
vestigation Of his management of
the department would end in COM
plete vindication of himself, the fact
remains that that proceeding would
have been marked by most unfor-
tunate effects on the department. 1t
would have compelled small talk to
be. detailed in public, gossip to be
exaggerated utterly beyond all its
justifiable significance, factional
lines to be drawn in the organiza-
ton, personal ambitions and per-
sonal fears to be injected into the
situation. The whole force would
have been set by the ears, and what
ever the nominal result of an in
quiry, the department would newt
ably have suffered.
The confidence with which Major
Sylvester and his friends have view
cd their position therefore warrants
the assumption that the longtime
chief of the department was moved
by considerations which do him all
credit. The Commissioners of the
District are likewise eptitled to rec
ognition for their management of
the affair in such fashion as to avoid
the ruinous consequences that inev-
itably would have flowed from OPEN
ing up a general department row.

Baldwin Works Blames

PHILADELPHIA. March 5.-The out

and it's subsidiary. the STANDARD Steel
Works, fell off ;240lAso5 last year from
the total of 1918. according to the report
Of the directors, read at the fourth an

Blame for the poor condition CT busi-
ness laid upon the "unfavorable atti-
tude of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission toward the railroads, the refusal
of the commission to grant the desired
slowing down of business. due largely
to the adoption OF new lower tariff
rates. During the last half of tho year

further affected by the paralysis OF
finances and OF business which followed

MICHAEL !. WELLER

The death of Michael I. Weller
marks the passing of one of Wash
ington's veteran business men. one
who disproved the theory that Wash
ington affords no opportunities for
the young man.
In Washington Mr.. Weller won a
substantial business success, and
rendered marked service to his COM
munity in various fields. He was not
given to speechmaking, nor to ap-
pearing on committees, but worked
quietly to inculcate higher appre-
citation of Washington. He, knew
the city's history, traditions, needs
Had he been a writer, instead of a
business man, a volume of reminis-
cences from him would have been q
valuable legacy.
Though he made few pretensions
as historian he was charter mem.
ber and founder Of the Columbia
Historical Society. He figured in
philanthropy as chairman Of the Cit.
izens' Relief Association, the relief
giving agency of the Associated
Charities. At Inauguration times
at the last five 1naugurations, hi
assumed the most difficult and in.
tricate task of providing for the
comfort of the thousands of visitors
But perhaps the most substantial
work he did was in connection with
the. steady development of East
Washington, a section given over tt
the home owners, and the one whose
citizens are most nearly the perma
nent residents of the city.

ONE HISTORIC EVENT

The conspicuous thing about the

wearying operations along three
hundred miles of front in France or
seven hundred in Poland and Cali

severity and give them local name.
But we must await the arrival of
