INJECTING SENSE INTO THE LAW

THE essence of tho Superior Court de-
L cision on the full-crew law is that it
is not violation of'the statute for rail
road managers to give members of
train crew something 10 do.
The Public Service Commission has
held that the man in charge Of a dining
car Is not a member of the train crew
within the meaning Of the law. The
Superior Court has decided that the rail
roads may put an extra man on the train,
as required by the law, and then assign
the man to certain duties in the dining
car.
The case is likely to be taken to the
Supreme Court, for there is a technical
legal question at issue, namely, whether
dining.car employees can properly he called
members of the train crew under the
terms of the statute. II certainly was not
the intent Of the men who demanded the
passage of the statute that they should
be so included. But the plain citizen who
is not interested in legal technicalities
and who objects to the unecOnomcal
operation of railroad trains will feel con-
siderable qualification that one court at
least has had the common sense to waive
technicalitles aside and make a decision
in the interest of economy.

sentative as the late Ambassador Guthrie

cessor should be carefully chosen. 1t
might be wise to take the bull by the

that we were eager to thresh out with her
and settle for all time the causes of irrita-
ton between the japanese and the one
section of the country that comes into
contact with them. America" to the Jap
anese means the Far West. It is the Far
West that should do the work of defining
its attitude toward aliens. There has been
too little definition and too much vague
talk in the past. If the Far West does
not want to be frank with Japan, II Is
not likely that the other sections of the
country will ever be able to explain away
that lack of candor.

INSULT TO IRELAND
70 the Editor Of the Epentnq Ledger:


Sir-Mr. Lloyd Georges speech in the
House Of Commons yesterday on the in
termnable Irish question was a gross and
gratuitous insult to Ireland, and is sure to
be deeply resented.
Months ago, when commissioned by the
then Premier, Mr.. Asquith, to evolve a
scheme OF settlement of the Irish problems
Mr. Lloyd George submitted one based on
the partition of Ireland, giving to the prov
inces of Leinster, Munster and Connaught
the inadequate home rule act now on the
statute book and excluding from its opera
ton six of the nine counties of Ulster. In
order TO secure the support Of the Irish par
liamentary party he represented to Mr.. Red
mond that the proposed partition would be
only temporary, while, as matter of fact
and record, he had at the same time given a
written pledge TO Sir Edward Carson, the
Unionist leader, that the partition would
be permanent.
Publication of the terms of the scheme
was followed by wave of Indignation
throughout Ireland. The Nationalists bit
terly resented any effort to undo the work
of the Almighty and split Ireland in two,
while the Unionists especially those of the
south and midlands, though opposed to home
rule, protested just as vehemently against
the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the country, As a
result Of this practical unanimity of Ma
tionalists and Unionsts against the scheme
it was withdrawn by Mr.. Asquith on the
implied understanding thar the offer of
it would not be repeated.
And yet, despite the fact that his scheme
pleased nobody and was generally rec
ognized as a blunder Mr. Lloyd George
offers 1t again. and offers it in the positive
conviction that II will be again refused.
As a matter of fact, IL has been refuse4
and any attempt to push it further will
lead TO a peck of trouble.
What can be said of the constructive
statesmanshp or the much-lauded ire
sourcefulness' of a man who, while admit
ting that the Irish are no more reconciled
TO English rule today than in the days OF
oliver Cromwell, has nothing better 10
offer than-to perpetrate an Irish bull-the
revived corpse Of a scheme as dead as old

Sir-I want you to suppose a set of cir
cumstances. Suppose Congress is ending
a session and the bill before it is the Adap-
son eight-hour law. suppose the President
tells Congress the bill must pass to avert
a national peril. Suppose it is filibustered
to death by Senator Lodge. Then suppose
the President demands that sthe rules be so
changed as to make forever impossible the
repetition of such thing.
What would the great and powerful press
Of the country say then? Wouldn't a great
portion of the newspapers say that the
change must not be allowed; that the fill
buster had served its purpose in preventing
"hasty action; that Senator Lodge had
performed a real service, etc, etc.,

that the odium that came to it this last

on account of the matter at issue not the
rule itself, and the way 1t was used. II
the same men who used 1t had employed II
in killing some measure obnoxious to the

Zeppelin died broken-hearted, 1t Is
said. over the failure Of his dirigible as
weapon. He deserved something better
than to have his name stand as a syno-
nym for baby.killing. The old inventor
seems from the first to have thought of
flying primarily as an art of peace. There
were plans for aerial mail and passenger
service between German cities. His last
ambition was TO build dirigible 1000 feet
long for flight to America-a peaceful
errand, dreamed of several months ago.
He was the victim OF the Prussian atmos-
phere. He had to breathe the air of mill
tarism. He was something like a certain
Doctor Guillotin, who was one of the
earliest and most earnest champions Of
vaccination and other means of serving
humanity. But he had the hard luck to
think out what has appeared to many TO
be humane way OF ridding the State of
Its enemies He went to Jail and lived in
the fear Of his own invention-the gull
lotine. Everything is forgotten about him
except the horrer he gave a name to-
Zeppelin died under the shadow of a
greater horror. which he himself had de-
vised for better uses.
