directly across the street from my office. Once
twice n week he would come late at

fected in my editorials with a sheaf of fresh
manuscript In his trembling hand. At such
times he pink with enthusiasm. He just
HAD to read his latest chapter to somebody. He
said he wanted my criticism but he didn't; for
when sometimes said what always thought
that nobody on earth would buy such book
he straightway became a wellspring of imminent
tears and wasted large segments of the circng
night trying to convince me that wrong.
When the compilation complete he told
me that Moses Warren Company were to pub

of the author and that If he were elected Mayor
of our city he could write 1.-THE Hon. Thos. E.

GARRISON HAS PRIcKED THE BUBBLE

IITHEN craftsmanship and efficiency run
wv into the mire OF politics and inefficiency;
when experts find themselves bound hand
and foot by coterie of popularity hunters;
when pacifism, bemOaning the expenditures
for preparedness, yields 70 public sentiment
but insists on showing the money through
the large end Of a pork barrel; when men
who have the substance In their hands are
asked 10 give il up for the shadow; when
spinelessness attains the supremacy over
backbone. then it is time for Secretary OF
War 10 resign.
There has been no stronger member OF
the Cabinet than Mr. Garrison. none In whom
the public has had more confidence. Yet his
services to his country glow in his resigna-
ton as never before His act throws a
calcium light on the utter uselessness OF the
kind Of preparedness Democratic leaders in
Congress want and opens the eyes OF the
country, in a way otherwise impossible, 10
the foolhardiness OF preparing by not pre-
pairing.

In successive days Mr.. Brandeis has been

of being too hostile to capital. One eager to

himself vigorously and convincingly denied
