The Italians everywhere are hold

the Pave river and in the billy region

"An Unsatisfactory Witness"

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The article entitled "A Foolish Com
plaint" in a recent issue of The Tribune
does Injustice to one who has passed beyond
the possibility of defending himself. | beg
to be permitted, therefore. to correct the
impression given in that article that the late
DR. Albert Leffngwell was an anti-viyisecton-
ist No one at all familiar with his writings
would be guilty Of that error.
In the introduction Of his book IAN Ethical
Problem" published in 1916, he refers TO an
article from his PEN printed in "ScrIbner
Magazine" in 1880, which probably consti-
tuted "the first argument that ever found eX-
pression in the pages Of an American period
ical favoring, not the entire abolition o.
vivisection, but the reform of its abuse
Between these two dates, in numerous books
articles ard addresses. he consistently MAIN
tanned the view that while beyond certain
boundaries vivisection "is cruel. monstrou'
and wrong" yet within those limitations we
regard it to be so justified by utility as to
be legitimate. expedient and right His long
life constituted protest against the eX-
IRENE position thu. is now imputed to him.
The stand taken By DR.. Lefingvell,' as
The Boston Transcript" has well said, rep
resents the best founded position of those
interested in protecting animals from need
less pain He contends that vivlsectlon
should be restricted rather than abolished"
"The common interests of humanity and
science demand that yivisectlon
should be brought under the direct super
vision and control Of the state. The prac-
tice. whether in public or in private. should
be restricted by law to certain definite OBJ
iects and surrounded by every possible safe
guard against license or abuse Is this
anti-vivisection II so, then the chief apos-
tie of modern science was an ant-yivisec-
zionist. for that declaration OF principle was
subscribed to by Herbert Spencer.
DR.. Lefingwell can only be classed among
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. on the theory that
every one deserves that description who dis
sents from what Professor william James
called "the prcposterous claim" OF the phvsi-
ologists that every scientist has an unlim-

For a Joint Port Commission

Governor Whitman has done well to join
Governor Edge of New Jersey in advocat-
ing a joint commission representing the
two states to work out policy Of i'm
provements for New York Harbor. 1t is
to be hoped the Legislature will adopt
whatever measure may be necessary to
permit this state to do its share in this
highly important and desirable work.
As the Governor truly says, "to con-
tinue existing conditions is seriously to
hamper and retard the industrial and
financial growth of the state" The port
of New York is one Of the marvellous har-
bors of the world, capable of handling
even vaster commerce than it now serves.
Unfortunately, it has not been developed
as modern skill and engineering experience
dictate. Harbors made far less good by
nature have been made far better by man.
It is time for the adoption Of a modern
and comprehensive port and terminal
policy and plans, and in that. Of course,
New York and its 'cross-the-river neigh
Dor must unite. Both will benefit, and
both have reason for wishing the benefits
to begin promptly.

the Editor Of M Tribune

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The writer is very much pleased to
read your tribute to Golfers Weekly You
are quite right in your diagnosis why one
million Americans are reading "Collier's,'
but you miss one more reason why they are
reading IT, It is because Of their splendid
crusade against booze. When a poor rum
rumbed creature beats up his wife or COM
mits murder Golfers" does not waste am
munition on the besotted creature who COM
mitted the crime or the proved man who
PASSED the bottle out to him. They ask the
name of the man higher up" who made the
poison.
In writing my thoughts travel Tribune
ward. What you say of Golfers" is true Of
The Tribune To-day you are publishing the
bravest newspaper in the world. Your Amer
icanism is even in advance of "Collier's."
Your campaign against dishonesty in adver-
tisng is courageous to the last degree. You
put your conscience above pelf, and rejoice
nightly that you are winning.

Tammany on the Job

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Tammany has already got on the
Job" for the Mayoralty campaign. Your
story on the Business Mems League in to-
davis paper is a strong and significant sign
of Tammany's activity. The Business Mems
League. which started into being during the
winter, viii not only "be found in line with
Tammany." but it is Tammany, and It won't
be long before the Hearst papers will get
into action in support of Tammany's subtle
compliment to William. also Randolph,

christencd him.
In the midst OF our prcoccupation with ma
tional problems it would be well for fusion
and Republican voters to get together, take
stock Of things and see that they aren't
caught mapping. One of the many 1ammany
feelers is the report emanating from Wash
ington that Mayor Mitchell is TO replace
Secretary Baker in the War Department. Let
us hope that our Mayor will not also be
fooled into chasing the various sops that
Tammany is beginning quietly to fling the
twin American watchdogs Of patriotism and

that was run, but their opinion counted for
nothing in the minds of an unlearned Judge
and jury. The technical jargon puzzled
them. with their settled notions Of what a
mailman ought to look like and what con-
stituted insanity in the legal sense. And
the general conclusion seemed to be that
the doctors had a senseless and pedantlc
way of reasoning about the matter, while
men Of the world were the best judges Of
whether a fellow was really of his head.
There is something wrong about sys-
tenn that makes il possible for the ignorant
