Money
and Politics

Love, money and politics serve to
make the brilliant Metro five-reel pro-
duction of big Tremaine," with Har-
old Lockwood and May Allison as the
stars, which is to be the feature at
the Royal theatre here tonight, the
motion picture of the moment.
John Tremaine loves a girl. His
brother wins her hand. John Ire
maine is entrusted with large sum
of money to carry to a bank. His
brother steals part of 1t. The brother
dies, leaving widow and two chill
dren. Upon Johns shoulders falls the
task of rehabiltating the family es-
tate, of caring for his brothers widow,
the woman he once loved; of bearing
up bravely against false suspicious
that it was he who stole the money.
He does these things and earns the
nickname of "Big Tremaine." Then
he wins the love of beautiful and
true-hearted girl. Next he is called
on to run for congress, despite the
slurs that have been cast upon his
character. He refuses. The girl he
loves insists. She leads an army of
voters to his home. She tells him they
trust him. He holds back. She tells
him she loves him. He wavers.
And then GENES the great climax.
The woman John once loved confess
es that it was her husband his own
brother-who stole the money. "Big
Tremaine" is a stupendous drama
the strongest motion picture offering
of the season. At the Royal tonight.

OHIO MAY DECIDE NEXT PRESJ.
DENT

From Ohio comes a shout Of glad
tidings and the exultant thought that
Ohio may determine who shall be the
next president of the United States,
The legislature has just given women
the right to vote in presidential cleo
tons. North Dakota passed such a
law several weeks ago. States where
in women have suffrage now have
So votes in the electoral college. The
action of Ohio adds "a votes, making
a total of 100. This is enough to
swing any presidential choice, and the
women share this power. Whether the
democratic or republican party will re-
ceive the allegiance of the women vot-
ers is a matter of conjecture. The
solid south would do we'll to honor its
women with the vote and place them
on an equal plane Of dignity and re-
sponsibility with other sections of the
country.

FAMED OLD Church

A FEW months ago there was
~ celebrated the one hundred
~ and fiftieth anniversary of the
completion and opening of st.
Pauls chapel in Trinity parish, in the
days when Britain still ruled New
York, and Trinity parish was an in
tegral part of the established church
of England. Trinity's first outlying
chapel built in 1852, and called st.
Georges, stood at the corner of Cliff
and Beekman streets.
1t may not be generally known that
st. Paul's had originally, besides the
main entrance at the Hudson river
end of the church, north and south
doors, on each side of the church, with
entrance porches. They were subse-
quentIy stoned up and canopied pews
erected in their places. One of these
pews was reserved for President
Washington, the other for the gov
ern0r. 1t is said that after Trinity
church was burned and st. Pauls be-

YOUR BROTHERS KEEPER.

So many people are too busily tax
ing care of@their brothers. They ne
elect themselves and while paying
great attention to the faults which ex-
list abroad forget those which are their
own.
1t is a fine ideal to have, never to
hurt another or to harm him by ex-
ample but it is not as important as
the care of your own character. No
matter what may be the fault of your
brother, get rid Of your own errors
first.
Your brother can come, very near
taking care of himself if you leave
him alone and take adequate care of
yourself.

New-York tribune., 1917-07-21
One Head Better than Three

The Senate will make a blunder if it
vests control of food production and dis
tribution in board of three members, in
stead of in single administrator. Boards,
as General Goethals recently remarked, are
usually long, narrow and wooden. Divisions
of authority are dangerous. The country
has just had most fragrant Illustration OF
the folly of playing off one master admin
istrator against another master admins
traitor. The Goethals-Denman deadlock
over ship construction has evoked express
sions Of disgust even in the Senate-the old
homestead and happy stamping ground OF
filibusters and deadlockers. Yet the Senate
wants to create a system Of food control
which might easily lead to another Goe-
thals-Denman fracas.
1t may be said that the President will
have as much power over three food regu-
lators as he will have over one. He can
discharge obstructionists from office. But
will he? He has not yet disciplined the
Shipping Board wranglers. Would he back
Mr.. Hoover against refractory majority
on a food board any more earnestly than
he is backing General Goethals against
Chairman Denman?
The ordinary red tape of peace must be
cut in time of war. One head in any
given field of activity is the only safe war
rule. A good deal of petty personal hos
tility to Mr.. Hoover has developed in the
Senate. It's motives are unworthy. Only
the representatives there of the food mo-
nopolists have any reason for wishing to
dscredit Mr.. Hoover or to tie his hands.
He should have an opportunity to show
what he can do. He understands the food
situation. Why take chances by saddling
him with two colleagues, who may turn out
to be Denmans? We hope that the Senate
will reverse its vote for food triumvirate.
A triumvirate in history has rarely spelled
anything but dissension and failure.

Mr.. Rice's Poetry
e Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: I desire to give expression to my ap-
probation of the poems of Grantland Rice,
especially those inspired by the present war,
which occasionally appear on the sporting
page of The Tribune, for | think for beauty
of expression. fneness Of sentiment and
depth of feeling they could hardly be sur
passed The poem entitled France" whicn
appeared several months ago, is the finest
and most graceful tribute to that unhappy
country | have seen. And the lines COM
memorating the death of Alan Seeger, Amer
lean member Of the Legion of Honor, killed
in action. thrill me with their beauty. There
are several other graceful and beautiful
verses by Mr.. Rice which have found it a
great pleasure to read, and which, | think,
merit wider appreciation than is possible
for them while their appearance is confined

Woollen Comforts for Sailors

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Apropos of Mrs. Brooks's letter which
appeared in your issue of July s, directing
all knitters, who wanted wool free for
knitting for the sailors to apply at the
Comforts Committee of the Navy League, 500
Fifth Avenue, | would like TO say that the
letter has found so much response among the
hungry knitters as to multiply fourfold the
morning mail ct the Comforts Committee in
additional requests for free wool. The de-
mand and the power to satisfy it are alike
worthy and altruistic.
Do the writer and her friends, however,
realize that the wool is not provided by the
government; that every pound of wool has to
be paid for with 81 out of some ones purse,
and that having paid out hundreds of dollars
for free wool already the purses of our gen.
erous patrons have been pretty well emptied ?
We of the Comforts Committee still rave
the same longing to give the wool as before,
but now lack the funds. Will not Mrs.
Brooks and our many interested friends and
knitters send to us contributions so that we
may find generous checks as well as de-
mands for free wool in our morning mail ?

The New World"
: Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Thanks for your editorial "The New
World in last Sundays issue. The breadth
OF vision and the farseeing intelligence that
made possible the writing of that editorial
and the publishing OF it mark what. to my
mind, is distinct and genuine triumph in
rresent-day American journalism.
As you well say, "The military aspect of
the war becomes daily less and less impor-
tant"-a conclusion that is becoming more
evident every day from careful reading of the
significant dispatches received from the vari
Gus capitals of Europe.
Verify, the world will not go back to where
it was before the summer of 1914. and tn.
American public should be thankful that
there is at least one paper that has even thj.
early had the courage to read the signs Of tho
times and frankly discuss them. E.AM.

Osteopathy in Wartime
Practitioners of This Art Want to Go
to the Front
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Now that America is actively en-
gagged in the World War, those agencies
which can help towards the conservation of
human life at the firing lines should be given
every possible opportunity to serve their
country in this way. The osteopaths are ask
ing for this privilege, which is their right.
A bill has been introduced in Congress TO
provide for the selection of osteopathic phys
icans in the medical service of the army
and navy of the United States. AT the pres
ent writing only those persons possessing
the degree of Doctor of Medicine are eligible
for appointment in the medical reserve corps,
Notwithstanding the fact that almost thou
sand licensed osteopaths have volunteered
their services at the front
The everyday practice of osteopathy has
demonstrated its efficacy in restoring to
efficiency innumerable cases, including post
operative conditions, disocations, stiff joints,
paralysis, spinal conclusions, neuroses and
incoordinations, all of which conditions are
common among wounded soldiers.
The osteopathic profession, animated by
the spirit of patriotism which calls every
person to do his bit, is anxious to serve its
country in this world crisis. 1t is With this
in view that the profession is now using
all its energies to bring about the enact
ment of the bill before Congress.

Doctor OF Osteopathy.

quarters to this possibly ruthless concep-
tion of the part which sculpture may De
made to play in garden scheme; but we
would again call the readers attention 10
the axiom that a garden is a garden.
This is a plan for the broad improvement
of the park, not for the revivificatlon OF
any work of plastic art. The MacMonnles
fountain was designed originally as part
Of light, festal ensemble; it is primarily
a decorative work, with the charming but
not sacrosanct brio belonging to such
ephemeral occasions, and the only point to
be considered now is the best way of MAX
ing it exercise an appropriate decorative
function in the park.
There, too, we must repeat, 1t should
take its cue not from architecture put
from trees, lawns, shrubs, flowers, geam-
ing water, all the true elements of gar
den. Everything in the proposed mo-
mortal should be governed by this princi-
pie, and if Mr.. Hastings has not already
called in a landscape architect to collabo-
rate with him he should seek such CO.
adiutor without delay. Years will elapse
before the trees indispensable to the scheme
will come to maturity and there can be no
great speed in the development of the nee
essary plants and hedges. All the more
reason, then, for restraining the masonry
and dark metal. Unless the memorial is
conceived at the start as an episode in
green place, subordinated at every point
to nature, our citizens will rue the day 1t
was invented. They will still have to go
to Paris to enjoy the restful spell of the
Luxembourg gardens.
New-York tribune., 1917-07-21
Discipline and Reason

Discipline is an art. Like good manners,
social grace and correct speech, it is one
Of the fine arts of living. And like these
also it cannot be assumed, manufactured
or acquired in day. An old and mellow
civilization falls into discipline as nat
urally and easily as an educated person
uses correct diction-and for much the
same reason. But societies, and particu-
larly persons in authority, to whom dis
ciplne is something new are likely to
take the same view of it as those uninlti-
ated persons often take of intellectual
culture who think it consists chiefly IN
using long, difficult, "jaw-breaking" words.
And just as a socially inexperienced per-
son reveals his awkwardness by the con-
scious and overscrupulous efforts he makes
to "be nice" so the socially inexperienced
community displays its lack of sense OF
organization by the ill-proportioned con-
scientiousness with which it "works at"
the tasks of discipline.
An example of this sort of strained at"
discipline was General Organs recent
order that members of the National Guard
should not smoke on the street. Of course,
il is a soldiers business to obey and not
ask the reason why; but reasoning SOL
der is nevertheless a better soldier for his
intelligence, and military order is better
fitted to develop habits of discipline if it
contains both authority and common sense.
1t is just possible that smoking may be
injurious to health and military efficiency
In that case the order would be justified as
hygenic measure. Then logically it
should prohibit smoking by soldiers any
where.
There are people who feel that it is dis
courteous and inconsiderate for any man,
soldier or civilian, to smoke on the street.
If such is the standard at National Guard
headquarters, it is only necessary to issue
the order as rule Of good manners, but
then why was not chewing gum also pro-
scribed?
In any case it is never necessary to go
beyond perfectly desirable and reasonable
ends of service TO justify all the discipline
needed for soldiers or anybody else. Dis
cipline, however much desired, is never an
end in itself. 1t is always means to some
real end. Psychologically speaking, the
best way to develop habits of discipline is
to associate in the mind of him who is to
obey the means and the rational end. The
French army, apparently, has learned the
lessons of modern psychology. 1t requires
severe discipline, but always for the sake
'of just those objects which every reason
able mind recognizes as good and neces-
sary. Such discipline is at once effective
and free, adequate, plastic and consistent
with the self-respect of reasoning beings.
There is need of greater discipline in
this country, both in the army and out of
it. But mere blind obedience to arbitrary
rules enacted for the sake of obedience
and nothing else will hardly develop desir-
able habits of obedience among intelligent
men. Such an attempt is much like the
old prison method of trying to teach the
prisoner habits of industry by setting him
to work pounding rock or other tasks from
which he could see no result from his labor.

(From The London Morning PosD
Professor Elliot Smith and Mr.. Pear lay
stress on the infinite variety of the cases
of nervous breakdown which have been caused
by the unprecedented strains and stresses of
the present war, with its terrific explosives

calls on nervous staying power. And they

case on it's merits, without, of course, ap-
plying any personal theory of the desirability
of "frmness" (Which may do untold harm

disease with the patient himself The more
spectacular cases-e. g., that in which deaf

breakdown-are not necessarily the most diff
