Until now l have understood and

spoils OF war are considered to be such

A Disputed Word.

In the early days of the war English
men were so often rebuked for an undue
expansion Of The meaning of England
that most of them think twice before using
it to-day, and have fallen easily into the
habit of recognizing some things as Brit
ish rather than English. Once in the
House of Commons Mr.. Asquith was cor
rected for saying British" when he really
meant English, and in apologizing for The
slip he explained that he had but lately
been broken Of the opposite error There
are some, however, who have not tried, or
at least have not contrived, to rid them
selves of the notion that England is The
proper word for the whole British Empire
and they continue to give great offence to
certain loyal subjects of the King, as well
in Wales, Scotland and Ireland as in the
colonies and dominions beyond the seas.
Mrs. Humphry Wards little book has
renewed the old controversy. She calls it
"England's Effort" and it has already
brought forth a strong protest-and from
an Englishman, too. English autho.5,
publishers and journalists" he says in a
letter to THE Spectator" should beware
Of giving needless offence in this matter.
If you ask Welshman or a Scotchman or
Canadian what he thinks about it, prob
ably the reply will not be in words-just
significant shrug Of the shoulders, when

Fish Have Sense of Smell.
(From The Chicago HeraldJ

FISH hasn't nose, but it can smell Re-
cent experiments have proved this What is
more, these experiments have proved that
odor travels through water just as it does
through air. Anglers have laid so much
stress on the need of exciting a fsh's inter

should the trout be expected TO be interested

1t may be heresy in angling TO suggest that
a Fly" should smell like fly. These scientific
experiments show how large a part smell
plays in the food pursuit of fish. Bait such
as small crabs. was found and eaten by the
fishes two or three times as rapidly when the
shells were broken. Bait placed inside gauze

same time all the fishes began nibbling az

The Park Problem.

IL is an unpleasant failure Of response
bility which makes so many park users
leave refuse on lawns and benches. These
same needless folk would not treat their
own rooms or back yards so shamefully.
Their action is part Of the tendency to
dump on the city just as much as can be
dumped. Commissioner Ward faces the
same problem in the parks as does the
Street Cleaning Department in the East
Sides habit of throwing garbage into the
streets.
A campaign of strict repression by de-
tectives' Surveillance, arrests and fines is
announced, and in view of the health situa-
ton such harsh methods are justifable.
But it can scarcely solve the problem in
The long run any more than the old system
Of speed traps and local constables and
fines prevented speeding by automobiles.
A keener sense of individual obligation
toward the common property Of the city is
the only permanent answer, and the de-
velopment ,tf such a sense is matter of
slow training that ought to begin in the

Submarines as SmuggIers.
,ditor OF The Tribune.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: How, with safety and propriety, may
a nation that believes in and enforces pro-
tective tariff permit to approach within the
three-mle limit any merchant or freight
carrying submarine vessel, whether in time of
peace or war, and by whomsoever owned or
chartered?
What Is TO prevent a submarine, in reality
engaged in smuggling from entering one OF
our ports while submerged, docking at a pri-
vate dock and there discharging the dutiable
fraction of its cargo, returning to sea still
submerged, as soon as remaining cargo and
manifest are at last in agreement, only to re-
turn 10 port next day, openly and on the sur
face, as an honest merchantmen?
Germany maintains that. as the submarine
and its method Of navigation are wholly new
types, 1t cannot, b. held subject to interna-
tional laws now existing.
Let us now accept this contention and es-
tablish a new code at once. the first article Of
which shall exclude from American waters the
merchant submarine. Such law would not
only tend to prevent smuggling, but would. so
far as vessels of this type are concerned.
avoid all disputes now growing out of the
exercise OF the right Of search ANY subma-
rine then observed in our waters would be
known as hostile vessel of war and as such
dealt with without delay.

Women as Citizens.
From The Manchester GUARDIAN


The immense expansion Of women's work
which the war has brought means, OF course
in the long run, fuller recognition Of wom-
ans citizenship. But the absorption of so
great a multitude in new forms of labor does
not imply that civic education for women ana
girls may safely be left until the problems OF
peace are coming into view. On the contrary,
now is the time for spade work in this field,
as the Manchester and Stafford Women Citi-
zens' Association, a pioneer body which held
its second annual meeting recently, is here
to testify. Upon an entirely non-party basis
il seeks TO mobilize the women ratepayers,
whose powers have never been properly real
lied; to educate the woman municipal voter
up to her responsibilities, and to bring .he
womans experience and point Of view 10 bear
upon the problems of the city. Complaints
used at one time to be heard OF the alleged
undemocratic character of women's reform
societies. Should any critic be rash enough
to bring this charge against the Women Citi-
zens' Association, he would be confronted
with the telling fact that card of member
ship costs a penny, with another penny as the
only annual payment.
Such matters as child labor and street
cleaning have been to the fore in the work
of the last year. There are, we may be sure,
many worthy citizens who will be startled to
learn that a subcommittee Of inquiry ap-
pointed by the association found that there
were 1000 children in Manchester and Stafford
working for wages outside school hours, and
that of this number l56 were babies of seven
and eight. In regard to the condition Of the
streets some admirable work is being done.
The women citizens have stimulated the
cleansing committee of the corporation to
look more closely into such thoroughfares as
are now badly neglected, and they have urged
especially that, if wartime economy demands
still further restrictions Of expenditure on
the streets, the poor and congested neghbor-
hoods shall not be the first to suffer. Obvi.
ously, the aims of the members cannot be
carried out through the central body alone
Local effort is essential, and the ideal of the
association is branch in every ward. That
doubtless will be achieved in time, and when
it is achieved the women citizens will have
carried us on a good many steps toward the
city Of a healthier and more inspiring future

language Of the Bible and of Shakespeare
of Burns and of Walter Scott III argues
that "Rritish" is not always interchange
able with English" and asks: docs any
one seriously propose, for instance ina
we should talk of the British language or
of British literature'?" Surely not, bu,
the test of language will hardly do. In
this country. for instance, we talk approx
mately the same language as the people o.
England, and are content to call 1t Eng

thing has already been done in the way OF
appeal by signs, and such publicity, laying
stress on the fact that the parks belong to
us all and that it is every ones duty to
protect them, should be intclligently pushed
home.

Clothes on the Rio Grande.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Although the principal object in call
ing out the National Guard has already
been accomplished, inasmuch as it has been
shown that the United States is entirely un-
prepared for an emergency, still II hardly
seems fair that the young men who respond
ed to the call of the President should be
subjected to any unnecessary haydships
While the semi-tropcal climate of Texas
in the summer is not an unhealthy one. it is
most trying to strangers if they are obliged
to work in the full glare of the sun. The
Anzac troops at Gallipoli soon found under
similar conditions that the only garments
they could endure were an undershrt and a
pair Of trousers cut off at the knees For
headgear there is nothing like an old straw
hat. pierced with many holes in the crown.
Good stout shoes are worn. but no socks, a
strip Of cotton cloth wound round the foot
taking the place. This can be kept creased
and is easily cleaned This costume would
rot show up very we'll at dress parade in an
armory, but it is all that is required, and
combined with proper food will enable our
gallant young men to go through very val
liable training in field evoutions and come
hack to their homes in the pink Of condi-
tion.

A Real Step Ahead.

The police force of New York CITY mas
made such steady progress from lazy, cor
rupt inef1iciency to clean, active disci-
plned ability that we are in danger OF
accepting its new status without suillcient
appreciation of the change. The recent
charges of corruption against a detective
and the breaking of a patrolman for cow
ardice are exceptional episodes that bring
the new rule into high relief. The cor
ruption remains to be proved, and if proved
would be an individual dereliction, very
different from the systematic blackmail OF
the Devery days. As for the isolated case
of cowardce-in failing to go to COM
rade's aid in a cellar fight with two gun
men-it is the first blot Of this character
on the forces record in nine years. The
dismissal came as a matter of course In an
organization that lives up to the highest
military standards of bravery and obedl-
ence to duty.
Knocking has been the great municipal
sport of New Workers. 1t has ranked as
one of the amable perquisites of citizen
shin in our great, impersonal, friendless
city. Under the present administration
advance from earlier beginnings has been
so rapid that the sport is sadly interfered
with. We have still to reach the efficiency
of German municipal rule. But the shame
of the cities which was spread forth TO
view a decade or so ago has dwlndIed
RAPIDLY. The muck-rakers succeeded so
well that their own profession has followed
their revelations into the garbage pail
