Militiamen Who 4s Don't Take Oath Liable For Duty
(continued from page one)

. istatute was that it keeps out of the national guard, as distinctively. stand ardized, such members of the militia as do not voluntarily engage for the higher obligations"
 The act, it declared, was not intend ed to operate to the end that mem sbers of the organized militia who did not see fit to enlist voluntarily for a longer term and assume the broader Obligations which might require them Pto go beyond the national bounds, should be absolved from the duty of responding to the emergency call of the President.
 Tt results, therefore" said the court, fthat when the petitioner 1; (Emerson) elected not to enlist for the longer term and the broader ser- vice, that he was still in the service for the federal service, contemplated ct the time he enlisted in the Massa- chusetts militia and took the oath to obey all laws and regulations for the government of the volunteer militia of the commonwealth, to obey the or der of all officers and support the con- stitution of the United States"
 Judge Putnam, in dissenting, said the act was too positive and precise ito be modified by the cQnstruction in the manner attempted by the court.

konqo Tattooinq.

In the Kongo colonies of Belgium both men and women are tattoed ac. cording to their status in society. A woman of high caste will have a de. sign not unlike a zouave jacket work ed upon her back. and it would seem that the native is as content with this mode of covering as if it were sub stitute for clothing. By injecting the juice of certain herbs the scars left by the tattooing process retain a swollen appearance, giving the effect of bas- relief work.

This addition to the navy is far from a clear gain in strength, however, since it was necessary to strip three other battleships of their crews and place them in reserve to find full compliment of men for the new fighter.
 The 911 men who make up the crew of the Arizona were drawn from the Vermont, the Kansas and the New Hampshire.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In reading your splendid editorial
"vive la France" one hardly knows how to
express the emotions aroused ty the elo-
ouent tribute paid to the country which, wits
Belgium, stands out prominently in 50 FAR
as duty and sacrifice are concerned.
II is difficult to speak of France in this
the supreme hour of her destiny, when she
is valiantly fighting to free the world from
the despotism that would enslaye 1t. The
conception Of the heroic sublimty that the
mental picture entails lacks adequate descrip-
ton. You may speak of this or that ril.-
liant campaign, pay tribute to those great
problems of strategy and tactics embodied
in the genius of her higher CO" mand, ad-
mire the courage and devotion of an entire
democracy In arms, yet over and above 1t all
there is that other and higher conception,
intangible. iuscrutable PANE de France. the
soul of the country cmbodyng the collective
force and genius Of all It's people past and
present. the sustaining memory Of the great
dead. the uuaterabie determination Of the
noble living. Aristocrat and peasant, an
entire nation IN arms. the psychic force Of a
people marching with common hope and
q common faith are mctamorphosed into
cannon. flesh and energy, unafrsid. even IN
the red he'll Of battle.
And all this is happening over there, across
the great seas, in that sweet land Of France
that we so dearly love, especially those who
know her well and have had the privilege
Of coming into contact with all the sclntllat-
ing brilliaucy Of her mind, the charm and
order Of her daily life, the amenities Of her
conduct and all the smiling graces OF her
personality. And even to-day when she IS
engaged in sterucr purposes. the same char
acteristics exemplify her Has it not been
truly said that she goes forth TO war ike
her swordsmcn of old wearing lace on her
sleeve?
And how different the contrast. as the
writer Of your admirable editorial so justly
depicts. between the democracy over there
that is unafraid and the democracy here
which is chiefly expressed b. those who SIT
in high places and who have failed 70 do
their duty whose honor has been involved
and have lightly dismissed it in high sound
ing words and phrases "who have been TOO
proud to fight" who have crimlna!iy neg
lected their obligations not alone to others,
but 10 themselves.
Unitarian questions OF finance and OF
notifies. the abject fear Of consequences, the
skulking timidity that turks behind eyasiye
and honeyed words contrast strangely with
tho blood-red fields of Flanders and Cham
parne. where men are dying daily that we
NAV live and undeservedly share in the
final heritage of happiness which in the end
they will bequeath to the world Thank God
for France, F. p. DELGADO.

Forced Obedience TO Law.

II was drastic action, as he says, for
Fire Commissioner Adamson to close two
factories where fire hazards were found
dangerous enough to menace the lives Of
those employed in the buildings. But such
action would not have been necessary if
the owners had complied within a reason
able time with the remedial orders issued.
Under similar circumstances the Fire
Commissioner would be well warranted IN
closing every one of the $50 factories now
being investigated.
There is great deal of twaddle going
around about the persecution of the prop
ertv owner, the carelessness of employees
in buildings, and the like. The plain fact
remains that no matter how careless en-
ployes or tenants may be--and that OBJ
yjouslv is a serious factor in the safety
Droblem-the fire and labor laws require
certain precautions and safeguards which
many property owners are reluctant TO
nav for until forced to do SO. They COM
plain that these are so unreasonable as TO
be practically confScatory in some IN
stances. Yet when forced TO do 1t they
comply, and there aren't many instances
on record that such compliance has put
property owners into bankruptcy or forced
them to take up their money for invest
ment in something other than real estate.
Commissioner Adamson says that he
has found it necessary in perhaps 100
cases to issue vacating orders, but these
two factories are the only ones which have
actually been closed; in the other cases the
owners then complied with the remedial
orders. In other words, they detied the
law as far as they dared, then capitu-
lated. For all officials charged with the
duty of protecting lives Of workers the
moral seems clear. A closed factory IS
much better for the community at large
than Triangle or Diamond fire, with an
appalling death list.
