The Shermans, following their victory
of last week over the Continentals. last
night felt chesty enough to show what
they could do again and consequently
proceeded TO hand the Royals a wal
looping in two of the three contests of
the match in the District Duckpin
League. The Shermans won the first
two games by $40 to 537 and by 536 to
532. The scores were close. it is true,
but the games were won just the same,
won from the Royals. and it is not
every team that can boast, of winning
two out of three from Pop Halley's
crowd.

A Strange Harvest.

Even the New York World has
been brought to the point OF recog-
nizing the dangers of the censorship
that the Administration proposes.
That about makes it unanimous.
Where the blame for the present
bungled situation is to be placed no
one can say with exactness. We are
loath to believe that the President is
acting entirely on his own initiative
in the matter. The original impetus
came from the War Department, and
perhaps the present pressure is due
to insistence from that quarter. At
any rate it is clear that the President
is acting contrary to the opinion of
some of his best friends in the course
he is pursuing. There should be a
statcsmanlike attempt at a compro-
mise, an effort to clear away the
present bitterness. There is no evil
dence of it yet.
The suggestions incorporated by
Mr.. Lansing in Mr. Creeps manual of
voluntary" rules are little less than
absurd. Even the World, which has
fought a lone battle for the Admin
istration, and has fought it ably, ridi-
cules the Lansing notion that peace
discussions" ought to be tabooed in
the newspapers, that anything likely
to give offense to our allies, or any
speculation Of friction between the
United States and the entente,
should be eliminated. 1t is possible
that Mr.. Lansing regards this war
as confidential, private, autocratic
sort of affair, to be conducted along
German lines. Such appears to be
the point of view of a Secretary of
State who has been bred in the at
mosphere of law and diplomacy,
without experience as a public man
until an accident of politics made
him counselor of the State Depart
ment.
For the present impasse Mr.. Creel
bears no particle of blame We doubt
if his own manual is approved by
his own judgment in all its details.
Certainly there is nothing in his rec
ord as a publicist to show that he
is an outstanding enemy of a free
press. He is buffer between the
public and certain high officials who
are trying to give snug ft to the
muzzle.
The Washington herald., 1917-05-30

THE POINT OF VIEW.
The world is here for what it is;
= thing Of pain, thing Of bliss;
A thing Of dullness or OF wit
According as We look on II.
II in my heart I dwell on woe,
And on the weeds that in It grow,
Twill prove a sorry sort Of place
Devoid OF beauty and Of grace.
But II spend my waking hours
In thinking on its lovely flowers.
And all the blessings have got
Twill be for me a garden-spot.
Wherefore, whatever woes may press
I'll think upon earth's loveliness
And thereby win the gracious good
on its unbounded plentitude.

Central Citizens Unanimous
In Helping Registration

Every member Of the Central Citizens
Association last night pledged himself to

the members to duty at the Gales and
Arthur schools. The association voted to
purchase liberty bonds, and Mr.. Nc
Namara, John McMahon and H. c. Rein
hardt were named a committee to buy

The Washington herald., 1917-05-30
What Is the Best Way?

The tribute which Mr.. A. j. Bal
four paid to the President and gen
orally to this country before the Ma
tional Press Club, in what was really
his last public utterance on American
soil, contained much that was echoed
by all who have followed the various
steps taken by Mr.. Wilson in the
war. In forty days, we have made
remarkable progress, it is true, and
thanks to the experience of our Brit
ish and French visitors, we have
avoided many pitfalls.
1t is important above all things
that we should start right with a
rounded and complete program Of
taxation and borrowing, or our mis-
takes will rise to plague us in sterner
days ahead, when all our energies
should be devoted to the strictly
military measures which must be
taken.
Public confidence is like a spleu-
did piece of machinery. Turn a
screw too much or too little, inn
properly adjust a bearing and the
work it does ceases to be perfect
Public credit is a priceless thing. As
any baby can, by meddling with the
works Of watch, disarrange it so
it will not run at all, so men mex
perienced or wrongly informed can
easily dislocate public credit.
In a war for national existence, a
government has the right to take
what it needs. But in the present
state. of affairs, it does not need to
take or commander. 1t has but to
ask. At the same time, it is the
patriotic duty of any citizen to point
out mistakes. 1t would be possible
for a government to stop all indi-
yidual effort within its borders and
make it impossible for its people to
give beyond the money they possess
at the outbreak of a war. But we
take it that this is not what the gov
eminent OF the United States desires
to do. On the contrary, unless we
mistake greatly the wisdom and
sagacity Of the President and his
Secretary of the Treasury, the desire
is that full and increasing prosperity
shall prevail during this conflict. 1t
is evident that if prudence holds sway
in all our councils, not a single mill
or mine shall close in consequence
of the financing of the war.
But there must be carefully ad-
justed taxation. There must be a
rounded plan OF bond issues. Taxa
ton and loans must go hand in hand.
American wealth, American thrift,
American industry must stand shoul-
der to shoulder. The same pockets
that pay the taxes, be they deep or
shallow, must. also take the bonds.
Settled and heavy taxation will dis
locate confidence and credit and
make the next bond issue a failure.
Any system Of taxation which may
be produced will at best be full of
flaws but no system should have the
votes of Congress and the signature
Of the President that fails to take
into consideration the question
whether the amount Of taxes to be
taken each year and the manner of
their levy shall impair the credit of
the country or the confidence of the
business world.
