Washington's Bathing Facilities.

Field Agent Longfellow of the Red
Cross. who is here conducting a
series of life-saving demonstrations
in an effort to reduce the percentage
of water accidents. urges that more
public bathing POOLS be provided. He
is voicing a demand that has been
expressed by the District for long
time The inadequacy of the public
bathing facilities here is a scandalous
reproach upon the capital. With an
abundance OF water Immediately at
hand. with opportunities for provid-
ing bathing facilities for the entire
community. Washington is compelled
to make use of pitiful group of lit
tie pools so located that the distances
from the homes OF the great major
ity OF the people are too great for
their frequent use. The law forblds
public bathing in the open streams,
partly for safety and partly for de-
cency. The result is that any boy
who wants to swim, if he cannot
reach the bathing beach or if he
is deferred by its congested condi-
ton, must take a chance with his
life and with the law by swimming
in the river or in Rock creek, or must
go over the line into Maryland to
one of the swimming holes" that are
to be found there.
At the last session of Congress the
proposition was advanced to utilize
the tidal basin as a swimming pool,
but it was discovered that the water
there is somewhat polluted and unfit
for use Consequently this project is
sidetracked until the condition can
be corrected, and then, perhaps, some
years hence this body of water may
be utilized for public bathing, with
room for many hundreds. Meanwhile,
unless Congress is induced to act lib
orally and constructively in the prem
Uses the boys of Washington who
want to learn to swim must join some
organization that supports tank or
go down to the crowded beach,
which is open only a part of the year,
or risk arrest or death by going into
the water at some prohibited place.
This is situation of which Wash
ington is not proud, but on the con-
trary one which it deplores, but
which is beyond its reach.

forcements are being rushed to them
to make the American control OF
the situation absolute. How long that
control will be exercised depends
upon circumstances.
This government finds in the Hal
tan matter a most embarrassing sit
uation. An obligation rests upon it
to restore order, and in measure to
guarantee order there to foreign gov
ernments. With the French govern
ment affronted by the violation OF
its legation it is especially incumbent
upon the United States to intervene
to end the anarchy that prevails. But
the obvious parallel between the Hal
tian and Mexican situations cannot
fail to be awkward The difference
in size between the two countries is
of no moment. In the essentials
Haiti is in the same situation as Mex
leo, and the United States is in the
same relation to them both.

The Haitian Problem.

The killing OF two American ma
rines in Haiti does not necessarily
make the situation there any graver
in respect to the possibility of future
action on the part of this govern
ment, but it assuredly does not rem
der the problem easier of solution.
The moment our men were landed at
Port au Prince the possibility of
the death of some of them was in
voked. They met with little oppo-
sition at the outset, and succeeded
in disarming large part of the
populace, including the revolutionary
army" There is no reason to fear that
the comparatively small force now
ashore in Haiti will be overwhelmed
for they are far better armed than
the natives and infinitely better dis
ciplined and Offered. Nevertheless
J it is gratifying to note that rein.

Invisible Airplanes.

1t is reported from Germany that
that country has developed virtual
ly invisible airplane through the
adoption of transparent wing ma
teria1 which at an altitude of 5000
feet cannot be detected by the eye.
1t is already difficult to see a
heavier-than-air machine at height.
Were it not for the exhaust of the
motor any machine a mile high
might pass unnoticed save by chance.
The transparent wing material of
German invention will increase this
difficulty of detection. and if some
means can be found to muf1e the ex-
haust the German aviators will be
greatly facilitated in their operation.

Favorite Sons.

Would it not be good policy Tor the
republicans to weed out some OF
their favorite sons? That Is to say,
where there are several presidential
aspirants in a state should not the re-
pubiicans agree as to the strongest
and ra1lv around him. with notice to
republicans elsewhere that he is the
states honey boy
In Ohio there are at present tour
such aspirants-Mr. Burton. Mr.. Her
nrick, Gov. Willis and Senator-elect
Harding. Each has his admirers and
oomers. with the result that repub-
cans in other states are unable to
ppraise the Ohio situation.
In Illinois there are three-Mr.
fann, Senator Sherman and Mayor
Thompson of Chicago. AS result,
/republicans at a distance are curious
as to which is the strongest with the
republicans of the Sucker state con-
sidered in connection with the party 5
presidential nomination.
In New York Mr.. Root and Gov.
Whitman are prominently IN the pic
ture, with Senator elect Wadsworth
standing just outside the spotlight,
but so near the line a slight shift
of the machine would bring him in.

in his old party the best means OF
accomplishing that purpose.
Mr.. Robinson probably feels, as dc
many other men who left the repub-
lican party three years ago, certain
responsibility for the present admin
istration. 1t was not on their card
to promote democracy. They had
visions of success for themselves
They gave themselves up to faith

still capable of wonders. He encour-

He and they lost. Their campaign

stances. but it failed. 1t failed dou-

today the man in the White House
has no more caustic critic than the
man who put him there. Of Mr.. Taft
Mr. Roosevelt has ceased to speak in
any way: of Mr.. Wilson he speaks
only in condemnation.
There is still bull moose organi-
cation in New York state. and its Of
hcials still make front" But its
power is much reduced; and the with
drawal OF men OF Mr.. Robinson's cal
iber and connections is heartening to
the republicans in their calculations
for both this year and next.

Theodore Douglas Robinson,
nephew OF Col. Roosevelt and ex-
chairman OF the progressive state
committee, at d meeting OF the Her
kimer county progressive organiza-
ton to be held next week, will give
his reasons for leaving the bull
moose party and returning to the re-

Note three things: CD Mr.. Robin
son is d nephew OF Mr.. Roosevelt
He is. OF course, an individual in his
own right, but he must be proud OF
the most distinguished member of
the family. He must also be fol-
lower. 1t is to be supposed that he
left the republican party for the bull
moose party on account OF his uncle
and now that he is returning TO his
old associations we may assume that
in his judgment there is nothing in
bull moosery for his relative now.
(2) Mr.. Robinson has reasons for
his change. and will give them. They
should be interesting Why he is re-
turning to the republican party in
wolves why he left. We should hear

Making Belgium German.

Belgium has been formally IAN
nexed" by Germany, and there is now
in progress systematic endeavor on
the part of the conquerors to make
the Belgians good German subjects.
Thc first step in transferring a peo-
pie from one allegiance to another
is to suppress all manifestations of
wrong headed patriotism for the old
authority. So in Belgium hence
forth-so long as German control
continues-there must be no display
of any token of the now supplanted
Belgian government At Bruges,
where recently on the national day
the people misbehaved scandalously
by wearing their former national
colors, the military governor has
posted the following proclamation:
II forbid from today wearing,
showing, buying and selling of Bel
gian colors, portraits or pictures of
the royal family, green leaves, with
or without inscription, or any other
display of color combinations which
indicate political inclinations. l
forbid all Belgians to wear the in
sigma of any order or decoration.
For any of these offenses maximum
fine of 5000 marks ($1,2so), or a max
imum term of FIVE years imprison-
ment. or both, will be inflicted"
Thus is love for the new fatherland
being instilled into the hearts of the
Belgians. They cannot help becom-
ing loyal and devoted subjects of Ger
many under such wise management.
which seeks to wean them gently
from their old allegiance.
