Laundry Bundles.

No one can reasonably object to the
complaint of the local laundrymen that
their patrons impose heavy burden
upon them by failing to have then bun
dies ready for collection on the DAYS
assigned for calling. This practice of
telling the wagon drivers to call again
adds materially to the cost of collection,
and this, in turn. goes into the general
cost of the service. One of the local
laundrymen reports that his drivers had
made 49, fruitless calls in one day. This,
at the estimated rate of cents a call,
meant needless expenditure for that
day OF 500. Putting up a laundry
bundle for the collector should be easily
remembered and easily done. The in
quiry about TO be made into the matter
by the deliveries committee of the COM
mercial economy board of the Council
of National Defense will perhaps bring
to light some interesting facts and fig
Eres. Meanwhile the suggestion that I'M
economical methods are in vogue among
laundry patrons should bring its own
correction.

themselves in a spirit of patriotic duty,

entirely competent men, war plans

Business and the War.

George W. Perkins is much in request
these days. He holds one office, and
Gov. Whitman wants the New York leg
islature TO empower him to hold an
other. The second Office has to do with
the food question, now of great moment
throughout the country. In both state
and nation everybody is concerned
Mr.. Perkins should, and probably does,
possess the qualifications associated with
the work Gov Whitman and Mayor
Mitchell have in mind for him. His
whole training has been in the business
world, where he has large credit for ca
pacity and success. He is a national
figure in financial circles, and quite
prominent in political circles. Indeed,
it is generally believed that had Mr..
Roosevelt been elected President in 1912,
Mr.. Perkins would have been selected
to administer the affairs Of the Treas
ury Department.
Mr.. Perkins is quite ready and willing

it may please the appointing powers to

For a little time this year it has

frequently in consultation and obvious
iy used to influence the socialist party
to support the policies of the govern
ment. For a reward the socialists were
promised measure of electoral reform,
and not long ago the kaiser proclaimed
reform, but carefully noted that it
was to take effect after the war. This
chilled the ardor of Scheidemann and
his colleagues. Then came the change
in chancellors and the reorganization
of the ministry. Evidently Scheide-
mann now feels that he has been gold
bricked. In speech delivered at Mann
helm he demanded in the interest of
peace the speedy substitution for the
present government OF Chancellor
Michaelis of government really repre-
senting the will of the German people.
The truth is dawning upon the German
socialists that there is no genuine peace
desire at Berlin, that the German gov
ernment's concept of peace is a peace
brought about through German military
dominance, with acquisitions of terri
tory and reservations of German colo

War Costs.

There is no reason for establishment
In the large figures that are being re-
ported in Congress as representing the
governments war needs. 1t is perfectly
well known that the war has cost the
European nations staggering sums, and
this country is now in it to the finish.
This Is no one season performance for
the United States Unless it has the
good fortune to be able to bring the
struggle to climax within a year,
which now seems unlikely; it will be a
long. cruel, costly grind, and the ex-
penses will mount, not merely by mil
lions. but by billions If we are to de-
liver the deciding stroke. as we now ex-
peet, we must pay in proportion.
phese tremendous sums, so far be-
yond all calculation based upon expert
enees in the past, cannot be raised by
taxes alone. 1t is idle to attempt and
it will be unjust to put the burden of
war-making upon the taxpayers of to-
day. Taxation must, of course. be in
creased to provide immediate money
and to distribute the burden somewhat.
but the bulk of the war cost must be
borne by posterity. If the war lasts
two years longer, as some now estimate.
there will be need of several "libertv
loan fiotations, just as in the other
warning countries there have been re-
peated war loan issues.
1t is just as well to face the fact now
that this is the biggest job the United
States has ever undertaken. and that it
Will cost out of proportion to all other
experiences, cost in men and in treas

accustomed in this country to preparing
for Mexican troubles, that have never
come to the head of real warfare, and
1t is somewhat hard now to appreciate
that this is the real thing at last, and
on scale never before known. We
have seen men in khaki sent TO camn
with so little expectation of actual serv-
ice that now the brown clad young men
whom we see about the streets of Wash
lngton are regarded with no particular
eoneern or interest. We forget that it

plant about bad government for the
town. Now and then, too, there were
secessions from Tammany. Men who for
one reason or another had tired Of their
associations drew apart and set up in
business for themselves. Occasionally
they assisted in defeating Tammany.
But the organization designed to put
Tammany permanently out of business
never succeeded. Several attempts were
made, and had the support Of some very
prominent democrats, but Tammany
survived them all. And today it is the
same shrcwd old, bad old, party as of
yore- Tammany under Murphy is ex-
coriated in much the same tone and
terms that Tammany under Croker was.
Gossip has it that Mr.. Murphy's sue
cess as boss has never filled Mr.. Cookers
bosom with joy. The reason has been
left TO conjecture, and conjecture has
played around the subject all the way
from envy to plain personal dislike.
Much of the talk is in all probability
without warrant. The two, as men and
as bosses, have much in common. Both
worked their way up from humble be-
ginnings. and reached affluence and
power when comparatively young. Both
have kept in touch with the plain peo-
pie Boss and ex- boss as birds of a
feather should have fiocked together.
Mr. Cookers hand has not of late years
been employed. But it may not have
lost its cunning; and should it appear

the side of Tammany something of in

A Recess and Stamping.

There is some criticism of the propo-
sition that senators and representatives
after Congress reeesses-if 1t does re-
cess-take the stump and stir up the
country on the subject of the war. The
necessity for such n step. it is eontended,
does not exist. Lethargy on the subject
is disappearing under the influence of
war preparations now observable on
every hand. Soldiers in large numbers
are gathering at designated places, and
officers in numbers are graduating from
preparing camps. Public sentiment will
respond to that.
Still there is other work these legis-
lators might do. They might take the
stump and explain the extra session to
their constituents; what has been done,
and what is expected of it; what remains
to be done. and how soon it should be
done; and what spirit has been shown
by Congress in dealing with an unprece-
dented situation and an extraordinary
demand.
Upon the whole, it is most interest
ing record; and great crowds would
gather to hear the details presented by
those who had participated in making
the record. In this way the general
subject of the war would become of
iivelier concern; and that would lead to
q clearer understanding of both the
causes and the expected effects.
If this is not done now it will be done
next year, when stumping in connec-
ton with congressional campaigns will
require it. Members of the present
Congress ambitious to succeed them
selves in office will have to give an ac-
count of themselves to those in whose
hands their fortunes rest. The stewards
must report to the people; and this time
everybody between the two oceans will
be filled with the Missouri spirit. Every
body will want to be SHOWN"
But the recess has not yet been or
dered. At most it is but a suggestion.
The leaders in Congress on both sides
are cautious with the caution that pro-
ceeds from grave sense of response
bility. They have never before faced
such situation as they now face. No
attempt is made to minimize the diff
culties that exist, or ignore the fact that
such situation is fruitful of surprises
Any day, it is recognized, may bring
developments in Europe or here at home
to which Congress would have to give
attention. And what is appointed for
Congress to do can be done only by
that body, and always should be done
when the necessity arises as promptly
as possible
