May Issue Sugar Cards
in Suburbs of Paris

Paris, Nov. IS. The issue of
sugar cards for the suburbs of Paris is
under consideration by the authorities.
At Neuilly the municipality has even
taken the precaution to have q guam
tity of cards printed in readiness.
The scarcity of sugar is due not so
much to the lack of stocks as to the
difficulties of distribution. The de-
livery wagons and horses of most
wholesalers and retailers have been
requisitioned for the army and there
is also a certain amount of boarding
by private persons. The grocers' as
ISOLATION has, however, obtained the
loan of five large automobile lorries
daily from the army which are doing

The Lost Leader.

Mr.. kitchin finds himself in a
unique situation. He is the leader
of the House, regularly chosen, and
entirely competent for the task. He
has abilities OF an excellent order,
and his experience as a legislator
covers period of more than dozen
years. 1t is unnecessary to say that
it is the duty OF leader to lead; and
equally true is it that Mr.. Kitchin is
not leading.
He lacks for neither courage nor
capacity The difficulty is found in
his differences OF opinion with the
leader OF his party on three matters
OF foremost concern. He is opposed
to preparedness, the President Tor it.
He is opposed to the Treasury De-
partment's ship bill, the President for
it. He is opposed to the tariff COM
mission proposition. and the Presi-
dent for it.
Now it SO happens that these mat
tiers are not only OF foremost con-
Germ TO the country, but are foremost
on the congressional card. They are
to be brought forward at once for as
early action as possible. And yet
the leader cannot conscientiously
lead. What is the solution OF the
problem?
In justice 10 Mr.. ktchin it must
be said that he stands now where he
stood a year ago. He has never
favored preparedness. He has OPP
posed proposition for tariff COM
mission, and was a member of the
ways and means committee which
wastebasketed the report of the COM
mission appointed by President Taft.
And so Jar as the ship bill is con-
cerned, the changes in that, made
with the Presidents knowledge and
consent. have not Invested it of the
flavor OF state socialism which de-
feated it in the last Congress.
The President is the leader OF his
party. The Sixty-third Congress, OF
which Mr.. kitciin was a member. de-
ferred to the President in measure
unparalleled in the history of later
day politics. 1t passed up" all seri-
ously disputed questions to him, and
he did not hesitate to grapple with
them. When it adjourned note was
made that he had impressed himself
on the whole record of the body.
In the present Congress there is a
different spirit. Mr.. Kitchin is not
alone in his manifestations. There
are other democrats disinelined to
follow the Presidents lead. How
long this spirit will continue and how
far carry cannot be stated. Much
curiosity exists on the subject. The
Presidents friends are watching the
recalcitrants closely, while they are
all curiosity as to the Presidents
next change Of mind and how soon
it may be expected.

Mr.. Bryan to Resume.

Mr.. Bryan, it is announced, will
soon resume his stumping activities,
making preparedness his leading
topic. As his friends put it. he will
not be trailing" the President, but
simply visiting localities where he
thinks his cause needs a boost
There can be no valid objection to
this. The country is free, debate
free, and Mr.. Bryan free man.
Mr.. Bryan's argument. however, is
known even where he has not de-
livered it in person. 1t rests upon
his assertion that the European war
has not demonstrated any necessity
for the strengthening of our army or
navy establishments. aa6 that the

on the proposition that the United
States should never have taken over
the islands; that in doing so it VIC
lated the principle of its own exist
ence as a nation, and that on that ac-
count it should put an end to its con-
troll as soon as it could do SO con-
sistently with its own interests and
the interests of the Filipino people.
Today the bloodiest war in the his
tory OF the world is in progress, with
the result in doubt, and map-making,
map-rearranging, popular theme
for wide speculation. If the allies
win what changes in the map will
they make? If the central powers
win, what changes will they make?
And yet at such time we virtually
throw the Philippines into the ring
to excite cupidity already excited.
They will enter into the new calcu-
lations. They are very valuable. Sew
cral great powers long for their pos
session. More than one would risk
something to get them.
In doing this we are confess'ng to
the slogan, Safety hrst'-for our
selves. The Filipinos must look out
for themselves. Our action IS die
tatcd. not by devotion to popular
government. but to a feeling, intcn-
sifcd by the war, that it is not safe
for us to be flying our flag in that
part OF the world.
OF course, VIC arc hating progress
in the islands. Foreign capital now
invested there will become extremely
nervous. and no new investments OF
Importance will be made. Native
politicians will bcstir themselves to
take advantage on the situation as
soon as the Stars and Stripes are
lowered. And who may say what
flag in the end will fly from the staff?
1t requires optimism beyond any pre-
vious measure to believe that Fill
Pine flag will long know the breezes
that blow.

only demand for preparedness has its
origin in the money greed of certain
manufacturers, and the fighting spirit
of soldiers and sailors DESTROYS of &C
ton.
That is to say, the cause which the
President has espoused, and with him
many men of eminencc who until re-
Gently were not convinced of the in
adequacy of our national defenses,
has its root in something very I'M
worthy, and, therefore, should be de-
feated
Another point, which Mr.. Bryan
has not used and will not use. but
which is being used in millennialistic
circles, is that Mr.. Wilson has in part
been influenced by his desire for a
second term. AS the story runs, find
ing himself embarrassed by the def
cit in the Treasury and by his Mcxi-
can policy. he decided he must have
an issue which would call attention
from them. and so adopted prepared
ness.
Before the President and the promi-
ncnt democrats agreeing with him
came into the field on the prepared
ness side. Mr.. Bryan had oomforta-
bic if not easy sailing in democratic
communities. Giving the matter a
partisan twist, he had but TO charge.
as he did charge. that it was only
another play of the republicans for
the favor of certain large manufac-
turing interests. and the recognition
of the need by them of a new cam
paign issue. They could sec little IN
the tariff and less in the currency
issue, and so decided to wave the flag
on general principles and call for the
saving of the country from foreign
foes.
But here is different work for Mr..
Bryan. When he resumes his stump
ing he must reply to the President,
and not rest his case, as before, on
an arraignment of republicans as
trouble-seekers, willing to plunge the
country into strife in an effort to re-
turn to power.

The Power Plant Blunder.

So many and 50 vigorous arc the
objections that have been entered
against the projected central power
and Lighting plant of the government
AT the city end OF the railroad bridge
across the Potomac that it is clearly
in order for halt 10 be called on
the construction before irrcparablc
damage is done The plans for this
work were not submitted to the fine
arts commission for year after their
inception. and then 1t was found that
matters had progressed TO definite
point OF imminent ummation.
This was in itself an improper ignor-
ing OF the body which has been desig-
mated to supervise from an artistic
standpoint all public constructions in
Washington, whose advice is always
TO be sought TO avoid the commits
the general development of the CAPT
tai
The plans as now drawn would pro-
duce a structure of unsightly out
lines. with four towering smoke
stacks from which. in the absence OF
provision for forced draft, smoke
would necessarily flow in volume at
all times. The location of the plant
is such that it would obtrude upon
the vision from every angle. 1t
would affect the landscape grievously
For a small addition, estimated at
$4,000, forced draft could be provided
that would permit material lower
ing OF the smokestacks. For very
little more the architectural design
of the building could be improved.
And, regardless OF stacks or design,
the main consideration in the case is
that the Treasury authorities pro-
ceeded with this enterprise without
reference to the fine arts commits
sion, and thereby sought to negative
the influence OF that body Tor the
systematic treatment OF the city in all
matters of public construction.
Fortunately. it is not too late now
to remedy this situation. Whatever
mistakes have been made in design
or even in location can be cured. The
government should not be held to a
program OF construction that is so
obviously at variance with the prin-
ciples OF capital making. To persist
now in the execution OF the plans be-
cause they have been formally
adopted and because certain steps
have been. taken for their execution
would be to add blunder to blunder
Not the least consideration in the
remiseS-indeed, in one respect the
most important-is that advanced by
Engineer Commissioner Kutz, who
urges that it is extremely doubtful
whether the steam mains can be laid
under the street surfaces without
grave risk OF explosion. Taken alto
gether. it is plain that some author
ity must be exercised 10 stop work
against which so many sound objec-
tons are raised for full reconsidera-
lion OF the general project and OF the
details and designs.
