Send MIR. Calder to the Senate

The Tribune did not favor the NOM
ination Of Mr.. Calder as the Repub-
lican candidate for United States
Senator. It believed that of the two
men soliciting the party nomination
he was less well qualified TO repre-
sent this state in the national legis
lature than Mr.. Bacon, when the
question of this country's foreign
relations, political and business,
must be one of the chief issues of
government policy. Nevertheless
The Tribune has no hesitancy in urg-
ing the voters, not only Republicans,
but Of all other parties, to support
Mr.. Calder in this election.
Mr.. Calder has served several
years in Congress, with credit to
himself and the party which sent
him there. His constituents were
satisfied with his record. He gained
there an experience which would be
valuable to him and to this state if
he were elected to the upper house.
Moreover, Mr.. Calder is a New
Yorker, born and bred. He has lived
all his life in this state. He under
stands its political and business prob
lens. He has made a record as
successful business man in this com
munity.
Mr.. McCombs, the Democratic can
didate opposed to Mr.. Calder, has no
experience in Office. His sole claim
to public attention grows out of his
service as chairman of the Demo-
cratic National Committee in the
campaign of 1912. He was born in Ar
kansas, but has practised law quietly
in this city for fifteen years. He has
taken no conspicuous part in political
or civic affairs here. His views are
as unknown to most people as his
personality, and this campaign has
done little to make either better
known. His nomination was opposed
in the primary contest as having
been suggested and supported by
Tammany Hall, and the vote bore out
the allegation.
New York State obviously needs
stronger man than Mr.. McCombs in
the Senate. New York does not want
a man picked and elected by Tam
many Hall in the Senate. Mr.. Cal
der's record presents a pleasant con-
trast to that Of his opponent in these
respects. He would never be a COM
handing figure in the Senate, but he
is entirely competent to give faith
ful and efficient service to the state
he would represent, which is more
than the voters have a right to as
sumo from what they know of Mr..
McCombs up 10 date. The choice is
between a man who has been tried in
office and one who must be taken on
faith. 1t should not be a hard one

Roosevelt Kept Us Out of War

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Truth and justice demand that

for having kept us out of war" when
he insisted on showing the efficiency
and preparedness of the United States
navy at that time by sending the bat

"Vivisectionists' Operations"

After a period of innocuous and
gratifying quiescence, the New
York Antivivisection Society is
making a new bid for public sup
port by providing a series of thrill
ing exhibitions supposed TO show
'just how the vivisectionist OPP
crates" Fifty schoolboys and
schoolgirls we're invited to the first
Of these entertainments, and as an
additional attraction an English
actor, who is apparently not indis-
posed to advertise himself, was en-
gagged to give little lecture on the
subject of experiments on animals
and TO tell his audience what he
thought of the Psychologists.
"Vivisection laboratories repre-
sent nothing but waste to my mind"
said the popular entertainer with
impressive gravity. ITO my knowl-
edge there has never come any def
rite benefit as a result Of expert
ments conducted on an animal"
And much more to the same effect
about his mind" and his "knowl-
edge" all in the familiar vein.
1t is perhaps not surprising that
this gifted performer should have
accepted the invitation of the ami
able ladies of the society. The foot
lights have an unhappy effect on the
minds of solemn folk of limited
learning. They are accustomed to
the applause of the multitude, and
are naturally apt to acquire an in
flated idea of their Importance, I'M
less happily they chance to be
checked by a portion of humor suffi-
cient to enable them to recognize
their limitations.
1t appears, however, from a SYM
pathetic report in "The Herald"
that in order to illustrate his mock
demonstration the actor with "sev-
eral aids strapped "a struggling
deg" to something described as ''the
vivisectionists' rack of torture" on
the pretence Of showing chow opera
tions on living animals are per
formed" There can be no excuse
fer exhibitions Of this kind. 1t is
indeed inconceivable how women who
profess TO be shocked at the use Of
"the vivisectionists' rack" in labora-
tories can countenance its abuse in
the bungling hands of vain player
who has neither the education nor

BEFORE THE WAR, WHAT"
Recollection of Bread Lines and
Empty Houses

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: believe we should fling high
and wide that question Of so much I'M
portance 10 the laboring millions OF
America - namely, After the war,
what?" However, my reflections have
also formed the question, Before the
war, what"
Ny memory takes me back to little
more than two years ago, when saw
on the streets Of New York throngs,
hundreds thousands men ana
women, asking, where shall / ma
bread for me and mineT Then | re-
member pulling into Chicago one Sat
urday afternoon, late. 1t had been
raining all day long, but as left the
train | could not pass along the streets
because OF the continuous line oil
marchers-men, women and children
who carried banners upon which were
tho words. 1--WE want bread" I'VE must
bave work" Give us work and we'll
get the bread" More than sixty thou
sand had marched the streets that day
That night took the train for a city
OF thirty thousand in Central Indiana.
The next morning | walked from the
hotel TO restaurant just two blocks
away. Three times | was stopped be-
fore reaching the restaurant by men,
who were not common buns, but
trained mechanics or tradesmen, and
asked for money for coffee and sand
witches. After my breakfast, which was
shared by one Of these men, ! started
back to my hotel, and was asked by
four more unemployed men to give
them food or money.
Before the war, what?"
Again, my memory takes me back to
a second town in Indiana. An automo-
bile factory that had employed as high
as thirty-six hundred men was running
along with less than eight hundred on
the payroll. | counted within hve
minutes walk twenty-one modern
houses that we're vacant, and friend
who was with me said that you could
get a house in that section rent free,
in order that the owner might have the
benefit Of his insurance protection.
Then I recall instance after instance,
all over the East and West, where the
railroads of our country had turned
five hundred, thousand. two thou
sand. ten thousand and in one in
stance twenty-five thousand men from
their payroll.
Just one thing more. Supposing this
much-talked-of Adamson "eight-hour
law" is held to be constitutional. Sup
posing the courts of our land say that
President Wilson and the Democratic
Congress were not overstepping the
bounds OF power. Some day another
burst of fanaticism may strike at the
impulses of our national body, and the
railroad men, as we'll as other union
lists, might face a ten-hour law, or
even a twelve-hour law. Would that
not be just as constitutional as the
present eight-hour law?
after the war, what?" Yes, that is
important, but before you cast your
ballot on next Tuesday, ask yourself
this question, Before the war, WHAT

the understanding TO discuss the
matter at all, TO say nothing of IL
Illustrating it.
In his own field he is clever
enough. His business is to amuse
idle Broadway, and if he were wise
he would stick TO it. If, however,
the Antivivisection Society must
employ actors to amuse their audi
ences. let the actors be confined to
their own proper gifts of gesture
and mimicry. Their vaporings can
do little harm, but dogs should not
be used to provide school children
with new thrills.

TRENCH WARFARE VICTIM
Phone now for appointment

Master Bruce Wallace. son Of Tax
Commissioner G. E. Wallace, is Bis
marck's first victim of trench warfare
The "kids" in the Wallace neighbor-
hood have been divided for some time
into the allies and the triple entente.
Sometimes there's but one ally, and
the triplets frequently are twins, but
there's always active warfare. This
week while charging the triplet's
trenches, Master Wallace, in the lead
of the Gordon Highlanders, was felled
by a hand grenade, and his frontal
bone was laid bare by cash which
required several stitches. And now
all the Scots who haze wi Wallace
bled are laying for the lad who heav-
ed the brick. -
