WEAKNESS IN PRISON DIScI.
 PLINE

There appears to be good reason for the superintendent of prisons in the state of New York to think that either the system that is followed in the prisons is wrong or else there are lax methods, when he Is confronted with the fact that since he took office last March, a matter of six months, there have been 35 prisoners who have es- capped from five Of the state institu- tions, and of that number only 13 have been captured.
 1t is quite evident that something is wrong. He sees the need of greater restrictions when he says: q need not say, however, that it is understood that there will be no return to brutal ity or undue severity, but discipline must be obtained for the good of the state prison department" That this demand for better guarding of the copvicts is not directed solely against the reform methods of Warden Os- borne at Sing Sing is indicated by the fact that there were ten who got away from that prison while Is took French leave from Auburn, but he does demand the overcoming of any laxity which may exist in the development of the new ideas of prison conduct The test which is being made of Warden Osborne's ideas has not been carried on long enough to condemn or approve them, but it must be realized that if there are any weak spots dis closed they should be quickly reme- died for certainly there can be no tol- eration of anything which encourages and aids prisoners to escape, whether they are under reform treatment ol not.

Ut doesn't require a report from a
 distant city to acquaint the people 7 with the fact that the cost of living
 is high and steadily rising. They are
 well aware of the situation but there
 is interest nevertheless in the report
 which comes from Chicago to the eff
 feet that while there has been an
 alarming advance within the past year, 2 Tmerchants and producers say that prices will be even higher this winter. This is a situation which cannot be very consoling to the democrats, for . it has not been forgotten that they promised a reduction in the cost of 2 living when as a matter of fact it has :, been steadily rising since they took !. office. The democrats in 1912 in their 2 platform charged that excessive 2 prices result in large measure from !. the high tariff laws enacted and main {, tained by the republican party and from trusts and commercial conspir- T acies fostered and encouraged by such alaws," yet in spite of the introduction < of their tariff for revenue only policy, 7 and the wiping out of the high tariff : laws, there has been no drop in the 2 cost of living. Instead prices have ad- e vanced far beyond what they were un- . uSf lu0 ISpuDllCdn ldTllly WHICH 1DQ1- 2 cates that the republican policies are ' far preferable as far as regulation of z the cost of living is concerned to say z nothing of their effect as a producer
 Of revenue and the protection of Amer
 Ican industries. The democrats have
 not only failed to carry out their
 promise of lowering the cost of living
 but they have proved the falIacy of
 their own claims.

that it should retain possession those loans would be lost.
 Just why 1t appears necessary for Germany to think it must inform this government upon such a subject is not quite clear for it must be understood that the Belgium government still ex- ists and if it is able to negotiate a loan those who advance the money can be depended upon to recognize just what the element of chance is that they are taking.
 That it is a matter which those who make the loan must look out for. They could be expected to do that whether Germany made such declaration or not. The value of the security is bound to be carefully weighed. Ger many Is undoubtedly endeavoring to discourage such loan but it is plain ly a matter which cannot be expected to be handled through diplomatic cir cles. This government Is not guaran- teeing any loans which may be made by financiers to the allies or to Ger many. Neither is it protesting them, and it is not likely to take any action regarding any which may be under way in regard to Belgium.

PUSHING GREECE TO A DECISION

Conditions in Greece have been go- ing from bad to worse. King Con- stantfne by his arbitrary holding to the attitude long since taken has cre- ated great dfscerd throughout the na- ton. This has been manifested in a number of ways but nothing discloses it more positively than the uprisings which have taken place among the soldiers and people.
 The latest of these is the revolt on the island of Crete, that valuable pos session which was placed compara- lively recently under Greek control. The spirit back of the revolution is only the same that has broken out in other places but it is, if anything, more determined and goes farther inasmuch as the revolutionists are said to be preparing to proclaim a provisional government, if they have not already done so, and intend to take up arms with the entente powers.
 That this is an expression of conf1- dence in and a demonstration of loy- atty to the policy advocated by Veni- zelos the former premier during whose term the entente allies landed their forces at Salonilli, must be recognized Venizelos is native of the island and LHe CretlanS are fully convinced Of his ability and are entirely in sym pathy with his position relative to the part which Greece should play. What effect this action will have towards hastening the decision of the l Greek cabinet to enter the war remains to be seen but 1t is strong and sub- stantial evidence of the kind of feel ing which not only is. but for a long time has been existing throughout that nation.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Chance for Crown Prince eeoroe

MT. Editor: In Fridays Bulletin there is an interest ting article on Con- stantine, king of the Hellenes. which states that the hope is lost of the old Greek tradition becoming a reality. The Greek tradition runs, When a royal Constantine weds Princess So- phie, the son they have shah reign in Constantinople."
 It will be remembered that the Queen of Greece before her marriage was the Princess Sophie of Prussia, sister to the German emperor.
 If the entente allies win the war, as the world at large seem to think they will, there certainly will be a dispute over Constantinople. As they have promised that Turkey will be forever banished from the shores of Europe, they must hand that much coveted city to one of the other petty Balkan states to prevent another grand quarrel among themselves.
 Greece stands as good if not a bet ter chance for the position of keeper of the gateway to the east, than any of her Balkan neighbors, and I can see no reason why the hope is lost that Hellenic prince shall not rule from Constantinople.

 creases his misery he would be con- scious of the truth of the statement of Socrates, that the fewer our wants, the nearer we resemble the gods" Why should man keep his wants far ahead of his winnings, or capacity ? We are likely to regard such a per son as a man of high ideals. Is he? Ideals are the images of aspiration wants the material things we desire. some one has said: Tt is better to idealize the real than to realize the ideal" which is doubtless true, for that would be doing instead of dream ing. The poet who wrote: Man wants but little here below, but wants that little long" doubtless had reference to life, industry and sustenance. Want ing to be rich, or famous, or good Is a waste of time, since these things are the fruit of action-of achievement Many know want because they have known waste. It is well to beware o1 ones acquaintances even along these lines.

HOW SHIPPING HAS SUFFERED

Just how much American shipping has suffered in the Pacific as the re- suit of the seamen's act is disclosed by the report of Commercial Attache Arnold on the relative positions of the United States, Great Britain and Ja- pan in the transportation business be- tween this country and the orient.
 There was a gross tonnage at the opening of the war of 3S0, 900 in the Pacific. It was to be expected that there would be falling off of the British, because of the uses which that government has had for the ves- sels under that flag. but it was to be expected that this country will be in a way to benefit from the situation as much so as it has on the Atlantic, but the legislation against shipping was of such a character that many Ameri- can owners could not see their. way to a continuance of business and the way was cleared for Japanese expansion and they lost no time in taking ad- vantage of it. Today they control the greater part of the shipping. There has been gain in the British-from its low point and the Dutch have even shown a marked increase in their ton mage there, while war conditions en- courage some of the American owners to attempt revival of their business but with only 22,10O tonnage now under the American flag 1t can be appre. cfated what harm has been done tc the American business. Whether ou1 Former position will ever be regaine6 depends upon future events. That there is still a great shortage from what there was previous to the wal Indicates that ship owners in this country are still scary of the condi. lions under which they must do busi- ness in view of the advantages fol Japanese lines with which they mus rompete.
