GALAXY Figures.

The figures presented to the Senate
Committee on Appropriations by H.
M. McLarin, spokesman for the Fed
eral and District employees seeking
increase in salary, have, in the main
the authority, authenticity and force
that official government compilations
carry.
They support, stronger than words,
the movement inaugurated by The
Washington Herald for salary revi-
sion upward. The Herald maintains
that for the majority of the employees
this is not only imperative, but is
plain justice.
An increase of "a per cent in the
cost of living within the past two
years certainly offers adequate reason
for general advance in salaries in
some degree equal to this steady and
consistent rise in the price of food
stuffs.
The need is immediate and while
reclassification would ultimately
work out nearer 100 per cent justice,
it would under the most favorable
circumstances be accompanied by a
delay, unnecessary and unfair.
Mr.. MeLarin presented the case OF
the employees ably and we'll. He did
not attempt to force a schedule,
which one branch of Congress has
already rejected as excessive.
The five, ten and fifteen per cent
schedule advocated by the organized
employees is drawn to give the great
est portion of relief, through increased
compensation, to those employees who
need it most, the poorest paid en-
ployes in the service.
Answering the specious argument
which begs the question, that gov
ernment and District employees are
free to leave the service if dissatis-
fled with their wages, McLarin points
out that the membership of Congress
would be recruited from thousands
willing and anxious to replace the
present personnel at the Capitol, al
salaries considerably less than $500
per year The required number
would fill the seats but the quality
of legislation they would enact is
another question.
In its entirety, the case presented
by Mr.. McLarin was concise, forci-
bic and logical. There is reason to
believe that its effect will be ap-
parent when the Senate committee
reports the legislative bill.
The Washington herald., 1917-01-04

Our stake in peace is, therefore just as
great as that of any of the belligerents.
A patch-up peace will not save us. no
more than them. But a peace based on
reason, on justice, backed by the public
opinion OF the world aroused as never
before to the enormity and the folly of
war, would remove the crushing horror
of militarism and free humanity for its
real work of making the world a better
place for all to live in. America cannot
stand aloof when the future of the whole
world Is at stake, when it is to be de-
cided whether humanity is to go forward
In peace and happiness or to be thrown
back in the welter and woe of war.
Whether this nation is to continue a
peaceful republic, working out the high
destinies of mankind, or to become a
military oligarchy, in fact If not in name,
may be settled by the manner in which
this war in Europe is ended,-Pittsburgh
DispAtch.
The Washington herald., 1917-01-04

Gen. Joffre becomes a marshal of
France as a reward for his victory on
the Marne and the sturdiness of his de-
fense of the line of the Somme, the Aisne,
the Meuse and the Vosges. He is the first
Frenchman to bear that NapOleonic title
since the death of Marshal MacMahon in
1893, and the first one TO receive the title
since the republic allowed it to lapse in
1873. After Ney and Davout, it cannot
be considered an empty honor. But 1t is
nevertheless evident that Joffre Is not
deemed the proper man to initiate or
carry out alone the new campaign which
the country awaits. In the confusion of
peace talk and the encouragement at
tending the Hindenburg victories in the
East, nothing could be more significant
of the future than such an incident as
the supersession of so deeply honored and
universally loved a commander as Joffre.

The annual report of real estate
transactions in the District of Co.
lumbis in 1916 is indeed gratifying
and demonstrates conclusively that a
purchase of Washington realty is one
of the best buys" that an investor
can make. More than a million a

Senate Killing Time.

For 1--WE days of the present session
the last of this Congress, the time oi
the Senate has been taken up by ex.
ecutive sessions considering the Pres.
ident's reappointment Of Winthrop M
Daniels as member of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. :.
Mr.. Daniels has served three years
No Senator now opposing his second
term is uttering one syllable agains,
the record he has made or is urging
a single objection to any decision he
has rendered in that time. Their op-
position is to Mr.. Daniels career as a
member of the Public Utilities Com
mission of the State Of New Jersey
They-and they are the Progressives
and Republicans who formerly were
called surgents-contend that Mr.
Daniels was not exactly friend oi
the "peepul' in New Jersey several
years ago and that his opinions favor
ed the railroads.
There is scant likelihood that the
present objection will be long-lived
Mr.. Daniels will probably be confirm
ed. II he is not he will be given a
recess appointment by the President
on March 4. He will then serve un-
til the new Congress meets.
The net result of the present move
ment will keep him out of his job for
three months, if even that is achieved
Before taking up the Daniels time
killing the Senate spent many hours
on the Sheppard bill for prohibition
in the District of Columbia. These
tactics are repugnant to the spirit oi
the general opinion of today. Wha,
the people are demanding is action
There are many important matters to
be settled in a few fleeting weeks
They will have to be brushed aside or
at the best, settled in a slipshod man
ner If the dilatory methods do not
give way to an earnest endeavor to
transact we'll as much public business
as possible in the least possible time
If the Senate does not hasten, the
time-honored spectacle of a closing
week of breathless, inexcusable haste
will be wit essed and on the night oi
adjournment appropriation bills carry
ing hundreds of millions of dollars
will be forced through for the Presi-
dents signature with theit giarins in
&C ruracies, great extravaganees and IN
the faulty and perennially distasteful
manner of so many scores of their
predecessors.
1t looks high time for the Senate
to vote on Mr.. Daniels. Either con.
firm him or reject him and then ge,
down to the business for which the
,dy was designed.

At dinner party the other night Gen
Fred Funston, of the United States Army
referred to the adroit way in which some
people can administer a severe Jolt and
told the following story:
One night the minister OF a Western
church was eloquently addressing his
congregation on the beauty of walking in
the straight and narrow path, when he
suddenly paused, glanced from one to an
other of his congregation. and then beck
oned to the sexton.
James" said he, as the sexton ap-
preached, open a couple of windows or
each side of the church. please
Beg pardon, sir responded James
with some surprise. since the building
was not uncomfortable. Did 1 under
stand you to say that the windows should
be OPEN"

Abraham Lincoln can be quoted with
effect regarding many aspects of the
great war, and not least appropriately in
answer to the enemy's empty peace talk.
When the fatnt-hearted on the Northern
side urged him in the spring of 1854 to
come to terms with the South by COM
promise Of all they were fighting for, his
answer was stern and memorable, and
as applicable to our case as his: I'VE
accepted this war; we did not begin it:
we accepted it for an object, and when
that object is accomplished the war will
end, and hope TO God 1t viii never end
