THE LIGHT or LIBERTY

New York; city has done itself
credit in raising a fund which in
sures that hereafter the splendid
Bartholdi statue Of Liberty will be
lighted at night. Not only will the
torch be illurnined, but, from con-
cesled refectors. all about the great
sfigy, streams Of radiance will light
the whole figure.
Inauguration Of the new lighting
scheme was accomplished with q
pomp and ceremony worthy Of the
occasion. The President witnessed.
and gave the signal that turned on
the lights. President Poincaire Of
France, the sister republic that pre-
scented this nation with the too-long-
neglected statue, sent his greetings
for the occasion. Liberty will here
after typify all that she should. No
more will arrivals, by land or sea,
receive with disappointment the ex-
PLANTATION that it isn't. possible to
point out and identify the great
symbol by night. Liberty will be as
brilliant as the lobster zone;. and
New York will be the better for 1t.

Park FERRY

N The long tongue Of land that juts
out into the Potomac river and is
called Potomac Park, is going to be
the best recreation ground in this
town, provided it isn't made the
worst. There's q thin partition be-
tween the. two extremes.
Who knows Potomac. Park now?
Why, the automobilist, Of course. He
drives around it, morning or evening
or both, for the air and the beauty
and the general delight.
Also, who knows Rock Creek
Park? Again, the automobilist.
HardlA anybody else has time to get
70 II, and nobody else except n
Misunderstanding expedition out for a
week in the wilds has time to 20
through II.
Thess-two parks are as utterly un-
like As possible, save in the single
detail that each is as remote from
popular usefulness as an utter lack
Of transportation facilities can make
Il.
Millions have been spent on them,
no that they would be the finest
parks in the country II only people
would go and use them.
Now comes Colonel Harris with n
request for an appropriation to es-
tablish n ferry service from lower
Seventh street across to the Poto'
mac Park. II he doesn't get it, the
park viii be just about as accessible
20 the average person as the
heights Of the Andean range, ex-
tended, in tho midst Of the Antarc-
tic continent. 1t will soon be park
Mas beautiful and even more attrac-
tive than the famous Belle Isle Park
in Detroit.
But il would be almost sacrilegc
to make real park in Washington
and then provide means to get
people to il. No right-minded per-
son will consent, to having our
beauty snd breathing spots clustered
up with common. pedestrian people.

CONGRESS AT WORK AGAIN

Congress will be back at Its work
tomorrow. It hasa huge task be-
fore Il, and one that win require the
exercise of a new sort Of discrimi-
nation. Last session marked the ex-
pansion Of Government expenses TO
a new basis, unheard Of heretofore.
The work was done In haste, some
OMIT none too carefully; but the re-
suit Of the election bears out the
theory Of Mr.. Cannon that on the
whole the country was willing to be
liberal; call il pork barrel or call It
preparedness. the public has given q
qualified approval. There must be
constructive, painstaking effort to
retain and deserve that approval; to
make certain that the country will
feel It il getting its moneys worth
for the money it Is willing to have
spent.
Under these demands, II will be
hard for the short session to do much
more than handle the supply meas
ures; and by the time March comes
around, there will be demands that
will almost inevitably require an ex-
tra session. President Wilson is
Understood to wish he might avoid
IL; but he can hardly feel much con-
fidence that he will do SO. -
Big and unusually significant is
sues confront the nations legisla-
ture. The debate on cost Of living
Is bringing the country face to face
with extraordinary measures such
as the warning countries have adop-
teo to meet like conditions. The
realizatiorS has come to the public
that, though we live in peace, we
live in war times and must meet
war conditions in our economic life.
Congress Is approaching its work
with a conception Of this fact that
seems reasonably TO insure against
the danger Of unduly hasty legisla-
ton; but an effort TO deal with the
pending problems in the three
months Of a short session would In
eyitably mean undue haste.

GREECE AND THE ALLIES

Greece faces a season of anarchy,
the causes OF which may not be so
accurately understood as they de-
serve. Early in the war the Veni-
zcsos government entered into agree
ment with the allies, to supply an
army, while they should furnish the
naval force. for the attempt to take
the Dardanelles. The chances are
decidedly that the effort would have
succeeded at that time. But Vent
zelos and the determination Of his
constitutional government were over
ruled by King Constantine under the
influence of his brother-in-law, the
Kaiser. ... ...
Matters have been going steadily
from bad to worse. The Bulgars oc-
cupied important points on the Greek
frontier, and Constantine submitted.
Venizelos finally withdrew from
Athens and set up provisional gov
eminent of his own, with the allies
backing it. The allies have largely
taken possession of mails, tele-
graphs, ports, and shipping. The
better part of the Greek navy was
taken over by them. Now, at last,
there is report of an actual clash
between Greek and French forces,
the latter, of course, backed by their
allies and the naval power gathered
in the Egean.
, The allies, from one point of view
look a good deal like buccaneers in
, Greece. They demand that arms and
artillery of the Greeks be turned
over to them, and it seems, rather
rough. But go back little way, and
it will be recalled that when Veni'
.zelos was still in control and his
treaties were expected to mean what
they said, the allies loaned money
and furnished material to the Greeks
They expected that money and mate
rial to fight on their side. The Greek
people expected the same. Instead
Constantine, by subverting the Greek
constitution. has brought a situation

SCHOOLS IN THE MARKET
PROBLEM

Amid all the furore about EN-
bargoes and boycotts, the House.
keepers Alliance Of Washington has
kept its head and declines to indulge
any Of the cheap and Aashy panaceas
for reducing the cost Of living.
Recently il issued n statement ad-
vising housewives to economic in
the kitchen, to avoid waste, and to
learn the relations Of values to
prices. Now II advances q big, con-
.structive idea. II is 70 use the
school houses as distributing cen
tiers for marketing and to employ
children in the delivery Of market
baskets TO their own homes. II also
suggests that community groups Of
women get together in the school
houses and consider tho cost Of living
Of their neighborhoods. The schools
are VIGOROUSLY underused; city
school children are painfully under
employed in respect of "chores."
The municipal market idea has
been advanced in Washington, hut
the location Of municipal wharves
and markets is not SO convenient as
II might be to most housewives. The
school house market would be con-
venient, and IL would establish one
more link between home and school
in the association which most think
ing educators already are trying to
form.
