Four Thousand Social Workers" Work
Philanthropy Game to Extent of
ss5e,ooo Yearly for Salaries"

While efficiency" experts are losing
sleep trying to convince workers that
millions of dollars will be saved if they
take longer steps when walking organ
ized charity is in sore need of one of
these so-called "engineers" to put it on
a Taylor system basis. if this editorial
by the New York World states the case:
Further light on the growth of organ.
lied charity as a gainful occupation is
furnished by the report of investigators
for the New York School of Phlan-
thropy. They find that more than 1000
men and women in New York city make
a living in social work supported by ori-
vate philanthropy. One social worker is
paid $4,000 a year, eight receive 5000
or more. and the salaries of 75s subordi-
mates aggregate SS59OO0 annually. Al
together the salaried workers in the pri-
vate charities of the city are as numer-
Gus as authors. editors, reporters, civil
engineers and surveyors, and they form
a larger group than clergymen, archi-
tects. dentists or chemists.
Surely an excellent record Of devel-
opmcnt for a comparatively young in
dustry. Conceived of as white-collar
charity for the support of deserving per-
sons looking for an occupation that is
entirely respectable and not arduous. or
ganized social work is an admirable in
-titution. II is something to provide for
the financial needs of 1000 citizens an
nually Tested by results in the way Of
direct social service and uplift of econ

the net profit TO society of the lavish
expenditure for social work are not so
easy.
1t Is clear that the middlcman fur
nishes the same problem for philanthropy
as for regular forms Of industry. Here
again the point is TO bring the producer
in closer touch with the consumer and
effect economies of distribution which
are impossible under the present waste
ful methods. Private charity in partic-
ular has much to gain in efficiency from

President Welborn.

We're about $500 men employed in the
Pueblo plant and the total increase was
approximately $500 a month.

Hawaii and the Philippines.

For the second time in 4 quarter Of a
century, the democratic party is com
hitting itself TO the policy Of scuttlc-
the most un American of all policies.
IT'S first attempt failed. Is the second
destined to succeed?
Absolutely the most grotesque cpl.

Mr.. Cleveland TO restore the monarchy
in Hawaii. All the fubdub of the dsv

right III the islands The natives were
entitled to a government Of their own
choosing and direction. They did not
want US. Hence, let us get out, aid let
the Hawaiians do as they pleased with
their own.
Mr.. Cleveland become obsessed-
probably the more easily because Amer
lean control had been acquired under
q republican administration. He pro
posed and prepared for scuttle. A para
mount commissioner was sent out to ar
range matters. But, alas for his chiefs
theory and intentions, he discovered

terror. Their main problem. if the Ger
man tide advances, is to withdraw solid
ly, with a minimum of captures OF
men, guns and munitions, SO as to pre-
vent any actual break in the lines
through which the attacking force may
pour to divide the TANKS. Such break
of the French line would be more disas-
trous than the loss of Verdun.
The suggestion has been advanced that
the attack at Verdun has been blind
to cover an assault upon the French line
at a point much nearer Paris, as, for in
stance, at Noyons This hardly seems
plausible, in view of the magnitude OF
the Verdun operations. The losses suf-
fered there by the Germans must have
been terribly heavy. If this has been
but a feint, what would be the magni-
tude of an attack in chief? The conclu-
sion is inevitable that the Nerdun move
WAS ordered, not to cover some other
maneuvcr. but to smash. if possible, the
greatest of the French strongholds, even
though il was at the greatest distance
from Paris, in order that if breach
were made in the line there would be

French capital no center of a possible

ing columns.

The Evening Star Newspaper Company
The Street Railway Demands.

The organization of the street rail
carries with it inevitably the, thought
of possible strike to enforce the de-
mands that have been presented to the
companies for better wages and shorter
hours. Yet that thought should not be
an inevitable sequence of the ANNOUNCE
ment It is in the last degree unfortu-
nate that there is no assured method
of adjusting the working conditions in
a large line of employment that directly
affects the public welfare. Common
sense suggests that there should be
some safeguard against dangerous and
costly interruption of the transporta-
tion service upon which more than $780,
400 people daily depend.
Yet the situation stands as 4 menace
to the public peace. The street railway
men have quietly organized and have
presented demands 1t is to be assumed
that they are in earnest in their propo-
sitions. The companies have not yet re-
piled formally. but through their cNecu-
tives have indicated their complete sur
prise and their belief that the present
scales and schedules are fair and equi-
table 1t is to be expected that they
will reject the demands when they have
been carefully considered. They will
probably act in harmony, even as the
workers are acting together.
This is the time to move for an ad-
iustment that will not disturb the pub
lie. 1t must be believed that each side
will stand firm on the original PROPOSE
tions, on the one side the demands of
the workers and on the other the re-
fusal of the companies, if they do re-
fuse. Sooner or later. if this issue is
drawn, the matter must he submitted to
arbitrator. Such issues almost always
go to umpires eventually. So why not
at the outset, saving both sides the cost
of a struggle or even the menace of
sone.
The public utilities commission has
mo power in the law to adjust such
question. but it is in the best possible
situation for a fair consideration OF the
issues involved. 1t is aware of the
physical and financial situation OF the
two traction companies. 1t knows the
public requirements. 1t could do no
more important work for the benefit of
The community than the settlement of
a dispute that if not handled Judiciously
.;nav lead to a suspension of traffic in
whole or in part and perhaps to the dis
order that usually accompanies street
gar strike.
If the companies are not disposed to
make concessions that Will satisfy the
workers, both sides should promptly
agree to leave the matter to the public
utilities commission, or, if that body IS
unwilling to assume the responsibility
and labor of an inquiry and a decision,
to some other arbitration. The i'm
portant point is that this be done speed
.ily. to the end of assuring the public,
which is most vitally concerned, that
there will in no circumstances be any
interruption of service.

the islands. The former ruler in whose
behalf the movement had been inaugu-
rated had begun to sharpen her ak pre-
paratory to beheading her enemies upon
her return to power. That settled it.
Mr.. Cleveland could not afford to abet
such thing, or even take chances on
the restoration Of such a government.
The scales fell from Don Quixote's eyes.
and Dulcinea remained in private life.
In the light Of later developments,
not only in Hawaii, but elsewhere, can
there be any doubt about that result 2
Was it not best for the Hawaiians as
we'll as ourselves9 Have we not done
for them far more than they could have
done for themselves And then as to
ourselves. The war with Spain was on
the way, as was, as feature Of it, our
taking over the Philippines. The Pan
ANA canal, to be built and controlled
by us, was on the way. Are we not the
stronger in our relations to both of
those cases because of our presence in
Hawaii?
AS the Hawaiians would have gone
back in the scale had we left, equally
true is it that the Filipinos will go back
if we leave the archipelago. We are
there, and should stay. And who shall
say that the ordering of scuttle now
will result in scuttle at the time fxed7

Tammany at Syracuse.

At Syracuse yesterday the game of
politics was played according to ap
proved New York rules. Tammany was
in control, and Tammany knows the
game. The dead past had buried its
dead. Tanmany was acting in the liv-
ing present. heart within, and Offices
or the hope of them-just ahead. In
dorsement of the administration was
all its best friends desired. The thrust
at Mr.. Bryan on the subject Of pre-
paredness was all the occasion called
for. Baltimore is behind. st. Louis is
before. In some things Tammany is a
forward looking organization.
1t would not be fair to subject the
platform to an examination on lines of
rigid reasoning. Platforms, as both
parties have often shown, and as the
democratic party showed at Baltimore
four years ago, are constructed for spe-
cial purposes, and go to the scrap heap
after serving such purposes. So that
