A DRY DISTRICT

Under.a rule unprecedented in the
history of Congress the Sheppard
bill was passed paking the city of
Washington "dry" territory. Bitter
opposition and ardent support have
both characterized the fight over this
measure, but the battle is now over
and whether opposing or supporting
its provisions every citizen of the
District must prepare to abide by-its
clauses. This preparation must con-
sist in the readjustment of business
affairs, the planning for the use of
property vacated. and the arranging
of a social life void of the public use
of liquor.
1t will add nothing to the solution
of the business problem for real es-
tate owners or men now engaged in
the liquor business to conclude that
the city is going to the devil. II
isn't. Other cities have adjusted
themselves to the same condition
that next November holds for Wash
ingUon without disaster. This city
can and will do likewise.

COST OF DRUGS HITS POOR
United Hospital Fund Asks Aid to
Continue Treatment.

NEW YORK, March 1.-The large
increase in tie price OF drugs caused
by the demands OF the European war
and the shutting off OF the German
supply is emphasized in an appeal Is
sued by the United States Hospital
Fund of 1O5 East Twenty-second street
for contributions that the work OF
giving free hospital treatment to the
poor may be kept up to standard. The
appeal characterized the situation as
serious and declared that the hos
pi.als must receive more assistance
or their work would be greatly handi-
capped.
Some OF the increases in drug prices
mentioned are: Carbolic acid, from 10
cents to $1.75 a pound; glycerine,
from II to 20 cents a pound: sodium
bromide, from so cents to $3.50 a
pound; icthyol, from $3.50 to SOS
pound, and diuretin, from $2.75 \
pound to 50 an ounce. Other hospital
commodities have kept pace with
drugs. Gauze has gone up 81 for
every hundred yards, absorbent cotton
has doubled in price, and rubber tub
ing has advanced IS per cent.

THE TIMES BIGGEST EXCLUSIVE
OF YESTERDAY

The Times congratulates its read
ers on the fact that it alone of the
Washington papers was able to pre-
sent to them yesterday the most dra-
matte story of the submarine war
fare in the vivid description of the
sinking of the Laconia cabled by
Floyd P. Gibbons, a Washington
man, who was on board.
Written within half an hour after
he landed from the British ship
which rescued him, the story con-
tanned no attempt at ford writing,
but was the plain, unvarnished tale
of a man who had seen and expert
enced and who could describe. The
Times extends hand of congratula-
ton across the ocean for a most ex-
cellent piece of reporting. d.
To its readers The Times offered
this piece of exclusive news as evil
dence of its intent to give the best
obtainable to those who in increasing
numbers are showing their apprecia-
ton and approval of this newspaper.

MANLESS GUNS

Guns for the ships may be had, but
not enough men competent to point
and fire them. That old phrase of
Cuban wartime, "the man behind the
gum" takes on a new color in the
light of the present situation. The
bigger the gun, the bigger the need
for a man behind it. While gun fac
tor has grown, however, the man
factor has dwindled or barely held its
own in our naval defense problem.
Where is the man, and why is he
not behind the gun? This difficulty
is as old as Rome, where they were
troubled with it in the slightly modi-
fed form of "the man behind the
armor." Eventually the Roman ar
morers became able to make highly
perfected helmets and breastplates.
But there came at last a dearth of
men with muscles and bones bred to
bear the chatting weight of even these
perfected breastplates, so that Latin
is today a dead language, and scien-
lists dig for relics in the neighbor-
hood of the Forum.
No defense yet devised is wholly
automatic: not even a naval gun is
quite self-pointing and self firing.
The country is defended today by
some of the finest armament that
was ever got together. It was bet

THE PRESIDENT AND THE
PACIFISTS

1t looks as though even William
Jennings Bryan had begun to see a
great light. He did not accompany
the other pacifists to the White
House yesterday. 1t is announced
that he will be absent from the
monster mass meeting" to be held
in this city Sunday night. Some in
formation must have penetrated into
his mind, though he is still feebly
muttering something about a refer
endum.
The President received two delega-
tons of pacifists yesterday afternoon.
Even pacifsts cannot agree in these
stirring times and the resolutions
adopted in New York last week, af-
ter bitter fight at the peace meet
ing, were duly presented to the
President. The significant thing,
however, is what the President told
the delegation. 1t seems to have
sobered them and scattered them and
reduced them to silence.
A second delegation was received
and departed also in silence. When
pacifists forego their accustomed
volubility and are willing for an &C
count of an interview with the Presi-
dent to be given out by the White
House, they must have been i'm
pressed with the gravity of the pres
ent situation. and of their own fu-
tility.
Meantime the pacifists in Congress
are attempting to use the filibuster
as a means of preventing the consent
of Congress even to the plan of arm
ing American merchantmen against
the murder and piracy that is ram
pant on the high seas. 1t may be
just as we'll for them to go as far as
they like. America will be effectually
cured of the brand of pacifism that
they represent. In the process they
will also be cured.

RESULT OF THE SUBMARINE
CAMPAIGN

The unrestricted use of the sub
marine by Germany, unrestricted by
treaty, covenant, international law,
or considerations of humanity, be-
gan on February 1, and the months
toll can now be calculated. A total
of 1873 ships have been sunk, ITO of
them British, 20 belonging to other
belligerents, and SO neutral ships, of
which two were American. The
total tonnage was 456,817. This is
less than half of the million tons a
month which the German govern
nent regarded as certain to be de-
stroyed, a calculation that did not re-
gard the increasing hostility of the
neutral nations.
To this extent the submarine cam
paign has failed. Considering that
the greatest record for the subma-
rines was attained in the early DAYS
of February, that rapid improvement
in defensive methods on the part of
the allied nations has been made, and
that the British restriction on i'm
ports insures a greater tonnage for
food and ammunition, the number of
submarine victims may be expected
to show a declining ratio.
If after months of preparation,
while Germany was ostensibly ad-
herring to the agreement following
the Sussex note, this confession of
failure has to be made, what must
be the effect upon the people of Ger
many, once the facts leak out? In a
vain effort to starve her most hated
enemy, Germany has forfeited the
last remnants of respect by civilized
peoples and has brought the greatest
neutral nation into armed conflict
with herself.

ter defended when the number Of
competent men was greater than the
meager store of mechanical defenses.
Labor-saving devices are very well
in their way. The trouble is they do
not save quite all the labor. They
require competent human direction,
but they do not necessarily obtain it.
This applies to defensive and to pro-
ductive equipment equally. The
country has been mechanical to the
point where it runs risk of becoming
an empty shell. The manless guns
of the navy are but one evidence of

The Lunar Bow.

Inc Lumur DOW.
Ny mind is borne across the years
That flood with never ceasing flow
To a blue night when near Louvain
saw a wondrous lunar bow.
The moon was regnant overhead,
And the caressing wind was warm,
While up the darkened west there
rose
The spectral streamers of the storm.
Here spanned the bow, a thing of
dream:
From delicate red to amethyst,
Each color of the spectrum limned
Against the battlements OF mist.
A nocturne of such perfect hue,
1t made the silence seem more deep.
And glorified a land that lay
- As peaceful as a child at sleep.
20 ravaged garths. o trampled fields,
Around which memory's halo shines.
o lovely city of Louvain,
With all your desecrated shrinesD
A land of peacel-The vision still
Abides despite the war and woe;
All, might some healing Power bring
back
The peace beneath the lunar bow.

LETTERS FROM READERS
Suggests Embargo on Foodstuffs to
Send Down Cost Of Living.

To the Editor Of THE TINES:
Stop exporting of foodstfffs for
thirty days. Prices will decline more
than half
Tens OF thousands OF cars OF grain,
meats, potatoes, etc, are on tracks
waiting for export. Our Government.
should commander them at a fair
price, SO that our own people may hive
and the poor workingman pot starve.
In the last sixty days there have
been exported more than 100000
bushels OF wheat, nearly 100000
bushels OF corn, 200, 900, 900 pounds of
meat and 100000 bushels of po-
tatoes and other vegetables. The Gus
tom house records will show this.
The rich man and the sDeculator
buy these foodstuffs, shipping them to
Europe at an immense profit 1t is
surprising our Government should
permit such a thing. A R. C..
