ONLY ONE WAY.

There is only one way TO stop the
liquor traffic and its evils, and that
is to stop the manufacture of the
Dwet goods"
This was conclusively proved few
days ago when arrests were made
here Of several men charged with tax
ing intoxicating liquor into dry ter
ritory," or in other words, into a pro-
hibition district
There is always some way TO crawl
over or creep around the law
where prohibition is concerned, and
try as we may, il is impossible to
overcome the fact that there viii be
those who stop at nothing to evade
the law. even at the risk of long
jail sentence and heavy fine for
themselves.
The victims of arrest here last
Saturday caught with the goods had
some 16S gallons OF whiskey in their
| possession. On this they would have
/ probably realized from two TO three
thousand dollars. and it was money
making scheme. 1t is said by local
officials this was their third trip into
this prohibition territory with quanti-
ties of forbidden goods. which they
sold at fabulous prices
The venturesome culprits received
untold sums for their intoxicants. the
men to whom it was finally sold paid
even higher prices 1t is easily esti
mated that pints cost from $3.50 TO
$500, and quarts brought from $500
to 500 each whereas the ordinary
price would have been seyenty-five
cents a pint or s1.50 a quart
Men who have the Unsuitable appe-
tite for drink viii pay any price for
it, It seems, and will get ii at any
cost, no matter how great the cost
may be.
There is only one way to stop the
sale of liquor. and that is to stop
its manufacture. The fountain must
be stopped at its source Cease tc
manufacture intoxicating drink and
the trouble viii end there Prohibi-
tion cannot, does not. accomplish that
for which ii is intended, as is evil
denced in the Virginia case. Stop the
manufacture There is no other way.

few buildings Knocked down, without
the least military advantage to Germany
in consequence. It is the one thing that
is sure to keep the British fighting mad
throughout the war, and Germany ac-
commodatingly maintains this steady
pressure that has from the beginning
been nothing but a serious military dis
advantage to the Teuton cause.
1t is probably the thought in Berlin
that by thus continuing to drop bombs
Germany can make the British people
tired of the war. 1t is beyond under
standing how government so closely
connected in the past by many ties as
Germany has been with the British peo-
pie can so completely misunderstood
national characteristics. For this and
other failures of perception and reason
ing the great alliance against Germany
is today thankful, for in some respects
these blunders have proved Germany's
most dangerous liabilities in the war.

Washington's Share of the Loan.

Washingtons subscription to the first
liberty loan was approximately $4,000
600 The second liberty loan calls for
30 per cent more than the first. three
billions instead of two. If Washington
subscribes to the second in the proper
ton of its first subscription it will take
bonds to the amount of about twenty
eight million dollars This should be the
goal of those who are working locally in
the liberty loan campaign.
Washington is larger city today than
it was when the first loan campaign was
started There has been an influx here
from all parts of the country of work
ers for the government in its various
war activities. 1t has been estimated
that the population has been increased
from 365.000 TO fully 100000. This in
crease alone will permit larger local
subscription. But there should be a
larger scale of bond buying in any case
The people should and probably will
take the bonds in larger amounts this
time than the other because. the govern
mcnt needs more money. There can be
no doubt that the money is here, that
there is cash enough in Washington to
the capitals full proportionate share of
the loan.
Under the terms of the second loan
the bonds are a better investment for
the small buyer now than they were in
June. The interest is ne-seventh larger.
Up to five thousand of bond holdings
the rate is net per cent as against 31@.
The income tax charges do not begin
below that figure. Considering the Sc
curity, which is absolute. this is an ex-
cellent investment for the person of
moderate means, and intrinsically there
fore the bond issue should attract in
vestors. There is, however, a considera-
tion beyond mere profit This is pa
triotic duty that is laid before the peo-
pie and they must respond not merely
in full, but in ardor of spirit.

GermauY's Blunders.

Germany's psychological processes in
the course of this war have been amaz-
ingly incorrect. The record of her
blunders Of judgment and maneuver
when fully told will be astonishing to
those who have accredited that nation
with keenness of perception and intel
1ectual development. One of the most
costly blunders committed by Germany
has been the carrying of the war physi-
cally to England by means of air raids
and the bombardment of coast cities
At the outset England's participation in
the war was on the basis of long-range
selfdefense. To her people it was rather
q political movement, as a preventive of
possible attacks in the future and in
punishment for Germany's violation of
Belgium. As long as the British were
in the war on this ground alone there
was certain lack of enthusiasm among
the people. Recruiting Jagged until the
British government was seriously con-
cerned. Then Germany made the monu-
mental mistake of sending Zeppelins to
raid England. The war at once became
q tragic reality to the British people.
From that moment they began to fight
in self defense, even as the French were
then fighting, at close grips with the
enemy. Recruiting went forward by
leaps.
1t would seem that Germany would
have learned from this demonstration
the unwisdom of continually carrying
the war into England, but with a singu-
lar lack of understanding Of the British
character she persisted, although she
might have felt in the constantly in
creasing pressure upon her lines in the
sector held by England the effect of
these raids. And Germany persists to-
day in sending airplanes to lombard

tieally proved ineffective by reason of
their greater bulk and the larger target

The End Approaches.

The end of the session seems near.
Yesterdays action by the House on the
war revenue conference report carried
the spirit of good bye. Little if any
thing being left to fight about. senators
and representatives are thinking of
home and a rest.
Nevertheless, here and there may be
heard expressions OF dissent uttered IN
o low tone. Such great unrest: so mach
in action. and more in contemplation; !;
such surprises possible at a time of sur
prises. suggest to some the advisabilty
of continuous session. Congress is SO
indispensable when business arises for
the legislative body to attend to. its
presence at the Capitol while the stress
remains great would. it is thought, have
an assuring effect on the country.
An emergency arising, the President
could call Congress right back. The
members will he within call. There is
no place like home-America-j now.
All other places are closed. Senators
and representatives must forego any dis
boundaries. America first, and, for
time. America only.
Assuming adjournment next week, six
weeks will elapse before the day APP
pointed for the regular session to be-
gin. In that time senators and repre-
sentatives. if so disposed, can address
war-what has been done at this session,
what is expected of the action taken,
and what is likely to be proposed on the
same line when Congress reassembles
They will find great interest in the
topie-more than existed short time
ago. In the past few months the first
hundreds of thousands of men have re-
sponded to the call to the colors. And
here now is the offer of the second lib
erty loan, and heavy war taxes are on
the eve of assessment.
The legislation at the regular session
will, of course, reflect public sentiment
up to date. 1t will be enacted on the
eve of the opening of campaign for
the election Of a new Congress; and
many senators and representatives will
be candidates to succeed themselves.
With an eye to their own political for
tunes as well as to the welfare of the
country, they may be expected to in
form themselves thoroughly as to what
their constituents favor and to conform
to wishes expressed.

Washington Incomes.

In its report on the local situation the
bureau Of labor statistics states that
shocking state of economic indecency"
exists in the District in the matter of
incomes, debt and savings In a year, it
states, of unprecedented high prices 80
per cent of 2,1l0 families, taken at ran
dom, had yearly incomes of less than
$500 and 81 per cent had incomes of less
than $1,000. Nearly one-third of the
families investigated finished the calen-
dar year Of 1916 with deficit, revealing.
according to the report, most serious
misadjustment in Washington
The statistics presented by this report
should lead to serious consideration by
the government itself, the largest local
employer, Of the need of higher wage
scale for those of its workers of the
under classes. In an investigation con-
Quoted some months ago into the wages
of the laborers and other unclassified de-
partment employees facts were presented
of a startling character. It was shown
that men were working long hours in
the government service for shamefuIly
small pittances and supporting families
upon them. Although the most urgent
need was shown by scores of specific
cases of keen suffering resulting from
the inadequacy of the governments pay
apln 1nth
justment. A bonus was voted by Con-
gress applicable to all the clerks up to
a certain grade out of consideration for
the high cost of living, but relatively
the unclassifed workers of the lower
grades remained stationary.
Compared with the existing industrial
situation, with labor now commanding a
higher price generally, the position of the
government employees is deplorable one.
The United States is hiring more peo-
pie now than ever, in the course of the
war administration work But the pay
scale remains the same 1t is indeed inst
| where it was over fifty years ago, the only
pay scale in the country that has not
| been increased many times in that
period. There is no assurance whatever
that the small bonus voted at the last
session of Congress will be continued
another year. 1t was specifically given
only for one year and cannot be re-
garded as an increase Of scale.
One Of the reasons why the economic
conditions In Washington are 50 un-
favorable for the people Of mail in.
comes is that there are few opportuni.

Bennett.

A new man is to be reckoned with
| in New York politics. His name is Ben
nett. He is rich. and, as politicians go,
young He owns q large ranch in the
west, and spends some Of his time on 1t.
Presumably, he is familiar with the sad
die, and can shoot. He is college bred,
hard worker and aggressive in the pur-
suit of an object. He likes public life,
has had a small taste of it. and wants
more.
The story suggests Roosevelt. Is there
another Teddy" on the way? These are
the times for men of that stamp. Rid
ing turbulence and excitement calls for
the same qualities necessary in riding
a broncho-grit, and confidence, and
staying power.
Mr.. Bennett is mounted, and condi-
tions in New York are turbulent to
degree. He declares a purpose to stick,
and all eyes are. on him.
When he announced for the republican
nomination for mayor small attention
was paid to him. The party leaders, in
Guiding Gov. Whitman, were all for
Mitchell and urging the rank and file to
take him. Fusion was the cry.
But, nothing daunted, Mr.. Bennett,
without organization or any help of that
kind, persevered, eanvassed the big
town, and carried the day at the pri-
maries He had over five hundred the
best of small poll. He declares that
he is in the race to stay.
If he does stay, Tammany will re-
joice, for, in effect, he will be mere
runner-up for Tammany's candidate. He
will help boost Judge Hylan. He will
divide the opposition.
Normally, New York is a democratic
town. It is only when the democracy
has failed in Office that control passes.
Mr.. Mitchell is in the mayors chair as
the result of such failure. He led
fusion fight against Tammany, and won
and his campaign for reelection is based
on his official record. Many democrats
and Independents are for him; and their
support needs only the assistance of the
republicans to insure him a second term.
If Mr. Bennett is ambitious he should
think again, and many times, before per-
sisting in a cause which cannot land
him, but may land Tammany's man, in
the city hall The times are topsy-
turvy; but some things remain right
side up, and among them is the duty to
keep Tammany out of power where it
has frequently abused power.

ties here for employment outside OF the
government service. This il a non-indus-
trial city, whose business is chiefly gov
ernmental and commercial. Unskilied
labor has practically no outlet. War con-
ditions may make difference this year.
A survey similar to that which was con-
Quoted last year from which the report
has just come would afford q most IN
structive parallel. But the basic cause
of economic misadjustment will not be
cured by spasmodic increases In wage
volume due to the war. The govern
ment's own scale must be permanently
increased, to keep pace with the con-
ditions, regardless Of an emergency
which is certain to pass soon.
