Summer Band Concerts.

While there is cause for regret that
the exigencies of war will cause cur
tailment of the public band concerts in
Washington during the summer, there
is reason to be grateful that the Marine
Band will play, as for years past, twice
week, at the Capitol and the White
House. These band concerts have given
great pleasure to large numbers during
recent years. For many years the Ma
rine Band alone performed for the public,
but some time ago other military musical
organizations stationed here were util-
lied, and the concerts were attended by
rrany thousands who were unable to get
to the afternoon performances. Now
we are to go back to the original basis,
of twice weekly programs by the Ma
rine Band, and the hope is that nothing
will happen to prevent their continu-
ance

The Press and the Censor.

The House, by substantial majority,
expressed its confidence yesterday in the
American press. 1t Will not regret its
action. The press has not abused, and
will not abuse its freedom. 1t is patri-
otic in purpose, and entirely qualified
to steer, unassisted, patriotic course.
The famous phrase of Mark Hanna has
application. The press knows its busi-
ness.
In this country a free press dates
from the beginning. We have never
known any other form of journalism.
It has been encouraged in every way.
It has prospered to the point of achiev-
ing proud sobriquet. 1t is recognized
and designated as "the fourth estate"
We often hear it said Of persons, par
ticularly of politicians, that response
bility sobers them. However extreme Of
utterance man may have been as an
agitator, as a seeker of power, when he
has obtained power through Office he be-
gins to show the influence Of conserva-
tism. He does not attempt to translate
all of his previous outgivings into deeds.
He lays course in keeping with the
stronger light office has thrown on mat
ters.
The press, as a whole, as represent
ative institution, has always shown a
sense of responsibility with respect to
both public and private affairs. 1t has
not been immaculate, and for the good
and sufficient reason that its lot has not
been cast in an immaculate world. But
its record as the fourth estate compares
most favorably with the records Of the
other estates. It stands on the record,
and invites support on the record.
The present war presents difficulties
the country has not before experienced.
But with regard to them the fourth es-
tate is no more on trial than its asso-
ciate estates All are in the same boat !;
and one as we'll as another should ab-
stain from rocking the boat.
As free press has helped to estab-
lish and thus far to preserve our insti-
tutions, it can be depended on to do its
duty loyalty and ihteligently at this
crisis. In the matter of equipment for
service it is in its best form today. It's
news-collecting agencies are far ex-
tended, and in good countenance with
the authorities everywhere. The fourth
estate is mobilized and needing no as
sistance it should receive no check in
any of its legitimate activities.

The Futile Anti-Registry Plots.

The refusal of a large number of
people to register Tuesday on grounds
of scruple or as a result of the cunning
persuasions of enemies will. of course,
put the government to the necessity of
infiicting punishments upon them. Every
man who fails to register and can give
no valid reason for his failure such as
sickness or absence-and even these ex-
cuses are technically not goods liable
to Imprisonment for a year. 1t will, of
course, be necessary for the government
to prosecute every case that can be
brought against the slackers or registry
dodgers. and this will entail much an
noying court work. but it will not him
der the military plans of the govern
ment in the least. 1t will congest the
Department of Justice and will not be
felt by the War Department
In only one respect will a large alb
stention from the registration be of mo-
ment. and that is in point of the ex-
ploitation of the fact by the national
enemies. Fortunately, the government
is aware of these plots to discourage
registration well enough in advance to
take measures against them, and the
fact has been plainly stated from the
highest source that there will be no re-
mission of penalties for those who are
who are induced by it to absent them
selves from the registration booths next
Tuesday. The broadcast warning will
undoubtedly have good effect in check
mating the disloyal work of the anti
registrationists.

Liberty Loan Reciprocity.

A liberty bond is guarantee of the
citizens concern in the success Of the
war. Again it is guarantee of the
governments concern for the welfare
of the citizen. The buying of one Of
these bonds is a reciprocal affair. On
the one hand the buyer gives the gov
eminent the use of his money, and on
the other hand the government gives
the buyer the assurance Of its protec-
ton.
Buyer and government are one, in
truth. The man who subscribes to the
liberty loan is lending to himself. As
part Of the government, he has a di-
rect stake in the success of its enter
prise
To buy liberty bond is to supply
quickly the funds which are to be used
to raise and equip the army and to ex-
pand the navy, to finance the munitions
buying Of the allies, to coordinate the
resources of the country, to conserve
the food supply, to regulate the indus
tries. 1t is in lieu of taxes. It puts cash
into the Treasury speedily, at the time
when cash is urgently needed.
No citizen can be called Stacker in
this connection if he has no cash to lend
to the government and cannot arrange
at bank for loan for the purchase of
bond. But the man who has surplus
cash in hand or in bank, cash that is
not needed for present or Immediately
prospective legitimate uses, and who
fails to take bond or bonds, is slack
ing in his duty.
There is no age limit in the liberty
bond buying. Those who cannot reg
lister next Tuesday because they are be-
yond the age prescribed can buy bonds,
for themselves or for those who are be.
low the age of twenty-one.
Washington has set out to subscribe
ten millions in liberty bonds. It will
surely not fail in this undertaking.

to persuade Congress to adopt them. No
subject strikes home moro directly.
Experience has been general Com
plants have been loud. Remedies with
out number have been proposed and
discussed and rejected. The few that
have been tried have failed. Prices
continue to soar, and seem destined to
reach the skies.
But the subject, though battling, is
still being pursued. Some remedy may
yet be found; and the finder, it is easy
to predict, will be the most popular man
of his day and may become power po-
liticaHy A full dinner again at rea-
sonable cost will cause such widespread

on the submarine situation and urging
the immediate construction Of at least
100 and preferably 200 sea-going de-
stroyers for service in the submarine
zone. This officer, whose name is with
held, declares that "the American pub
lie has been fed on lies for SO long that
it will be doubiy difficult to impress it
with facts" He stresses the assertion
that more ships are sunk monthly than
can possibly be replaced in the same
interval of time, and that an insignifi-
cant number of submarines is being de-
stroyed.
Just who has been doing the lying this
officer does not say, though he declares
that publishers and writers" have
brought back unfounded stories of sub
marine captures. This is broad state
ment, and calls for some explanation
The naval authorities cannot fail to be
interested in the report thus informally
and irregularly made through personal
correspondence.
The weekly admiralty reports issued
from London certainly leave much to be
desired in the matter of detail, but they
afford reasonable basis for computing
the power of the Uboat in the drive
against England's commerce, and while
it may be true that more ships are be-
ing sunk than can be replaced, the fact
is plain, unless the admiralty figures are
inaccurate, that the percentage of sink
ings to sailings and arrivals has lately
been growing steadily smaller.
Still there can be no doubt of this
officers deduction that more American
naval power is needed in European
waters. The utmost haste should be
made by this country in putting an eff
cient fleet of submarine chasers and
patrol boats into service.
Evening star., 1917-06-01
A Good Platform.

The newly elected representative from
New Hampshire is quoted as follows:
Il am for national prohibition, for the
policy of protection so indispensable to
the welfare of this district and the
country, and l am also in favor of prac-
tical methods to reduce the high cost
ct living to the people 1 favor ample
preparedness and proper protection to
our country"
There is. strong support in Congress
for all these propositions. National pro-
hibition has been gaining steadily for
several years. Its advocates are found
in both parties, and represent all sec.
tions. just now the economic phase of
the question, which is difficult, is up
Whisky and beer are listed for heavy
assessments for war revenue, and should
their manufacture be prohibited the
money would have to be collected from
other sources. From what otherf II
the new member of the House has any
suggestions on that point he will fine
an audience for them.
Protection is very much in favor
Nothing seems more certain now
than that when the tariff is next gen
orally revised the case Of protection viii

siveness. The war is giving new as
poets to the cause, and all Of them il
protection interests.
