Mexico City, Feb. 25.-The cart
ridge-making machinery purchased
from Japan has been unloaded at

accompanied the shipments in order

1t is understood the machinery was

"Daylight-5aving."

1t has been suggested that the So
called daylight saving measure now
pending in Congress would, if enacted,
permit the utilizing of the "cxtra hour
of daylight" for military instruction un-
der n system of universal military
training. This idea involves the
thought that there is an actual saving
of time, or rather making of time, in
shifting of the working hours in the
day. Daylight saving does not add a
minute, of course, to the day 1t is de-
signed to start people at work one hour
earlier in the morning in summer, with
cut changing the regulations Of employ
ment. 1t does not mean nine hour day
where an eight-hour day now prevails,
or a ten-hour day in place of a nine
hour day. If people rise at instead
of in order to go to work at 8 instead
of 0 they will quit work at 4 instead OF
5, or at instead of 6. They viii then

The War and Entertainment.

A prominent theatrical firm announces
q policy of farces and light musical
pieces while the war in Europe lasts.
1t takes the ground-probably correctly
that the tragedies Of real life are now
so far-reaching and appalling, the pub
lie looks to the theater to relieve the
gloom.
This policy was pursued during our
civil war Clowns and light comedy held
the boards against tragedy and the
tragedians. There was enough tragedy,
and to spare, in our actual affairs. The
believe, therefore, was fashioned
on different lines, and funmakers reaped
q rich harvest.
Mr.. Lincoln, it will be remembered,
rested, when at all. at the play, and
was in attendance at light comedy the
night he was shot. That was before the
day of so-called comic opera with us.
Shall we see this policy adopted later
by the chautauqua agenciesi Will they
pitch their entertainments in the same
keya Are the humorists to be the top
liners during the coming seasonf Are
the serious-minded speakers to be barred
or subordinated, on the score that the
daily news affords all the solemnity the
people desire or should havei
Such policy would be hard on the
politicians, who of late years have been
turning in increasing numbers to the
platform-to the field Of the entertain
ers. As rule, they are either serious
minded men, or cultivate serious speech
for the favor of the public. Humor is
dangerous, and sometimes fatal, in poll.

What of Mr.. Bryant His addresses
are all serious, and delivered in a seri.
GUS way. In fact, it is said of him that
he lacks the sense Of humor-is toe
much inclined to tragedy. For twenty
years he has shone respondent in the

of setting, or of being temporarily
eclipsedf He probably could not if he

But Mr.. Bryan and those like him can

that tragedy must again come into it.

An Inaugural Feature.

Tammany is coming to the Inaugural
ton 200 strong. Charles +. Murphy
Will lead the delegations in the parade
up Pennsylvania avenue and past the
Presidents stand. Three brass bands
and fife and drum corps will make
trains will be necessary to transport
them. They will be welcome.
Friendly wags at home are having
their fun. Four years ago the braves
who attended the Inauguration topped
their store clothes with plug" hats. But
as four lean years for Tammany have
intervened it is suggested that on this
occasion the braves may have to content
themselves with more modest and less
expensive "lids." The point is not set
lied. But come they in "stovepipes." or
come they in slouches, or derbys, or even
golf caps, the braves will be cordially
received and well entertained in Wash
.lngton.
One figure will be missing. Some
Things in New York have changed since
1918. Then William Sulzer was the
governor of the commonwealth. He had
gust taken the reins, and appeared in
the inaugural procession here mounted
ON a melted steed. and looking as one
might imagine Henry Clay looked
mounted on Kentucky thoroughbred.
To-day Mr.. Sulzer is in private life, and
q republican occupies the governors
chair at Albany. Once leader in Tam
many, and a protege of the Big Chief.
Mr. Sulzer has been stripped of Ibis
feathers and banished from the reserva-
etion.

the fact that Tammany is always regu-

cation shows up on state occasions to

NEW YORK FOOD RIOTS.

From the New York Tribune
A sinister feature of the food situa-
ton is that those who suffer from 1t
most are turning impetuepsly to gov
ernmehtai remedies. In their distress
they are asking bread of governmental
machinery which cannot give them
bread-whose normal output under
such conditions is only stone.
From the New York World.
In view Of the amazing food situa-
| ton. it is remarkable that no public
prosecutor takes the center Of the
stage. There are laws, state and ma
tional. that cover every phase Of mo-
nopoly. conspiracy. forestalling and ex-
| tertion. Even restraint of trade Is a
misdemeanor.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Outside Of the congested sections Of
New York city. the food situation does
not appear to have become SO tense.
At least. 1t Is only there that food riots
have appeared. 1t is well. however. to
take an early warning.

Indiana.

The report that Mr.. Kern, who retires
from the Senate March 4, may retire
also from active political life and ac-
'eept place on the bench by appoint
+nent is causing some speculation about
Indiana politics. Who will succeed him
there? He has been an influential fig
ure for years, and during the Hast four
years, owing to his popularity with the
President, has attained to greater in
Auence than ever. Still, he lost out last
November in his effort to secure re-
election to the Senate.
Thomas Taggart lost out at the same
time, but is far from being through with
fine game. He is furnishing up his ia
mous machine for another try. Mr.
faggart. however, has many opponents

organizer of regulars" he is very COM
petent man, but has not been success
full - diplomat working to appease the
disconnected and rebellious.
A most important suggestion is that
Vice President Marshall may become the
head Of his party at home and direct its
future course. His popularity has al
ways been high. Years ago he made
his mark on the stump, and profted by
Q term a. governor and election four
years ago to his present Office. He lost
out at home last year, but won in the
country at large, and as he will be in
commission during the coming four
years and on excellent terms with the
President his recognized leadership of
the Indiana democracy should count for
something.
Mr.. Bryan is active in the state. The
recent triumph of prohibition there and
the growing strength of the campaign
for votes for women are ascribed to his
influence.
This will add to the interest in Mr..
Marshalfs leadership. Mr.. Bryan has
his eye on 1920, and why should not
Mr.. Marshall have hist As between the
two, Indiana would be likely to support
her son for the first prize at the next
democratic national convention. But
obo,,3d ba Fail mould clio than turn IN
Mr.. Bryan? The Nebraskan has always
been popular with the Hoosiers.
Complimentary things are being said
about the new republican leader, Gov.
Goodrich, who has had long experience
in politics, and this adds to the neces-
sity that the democrats match him with
man who can bring the factions of
divided party together.

Food Price Control.

= Recent happenings in New York have

Increases in the food rates, unjustifed

training is to be regulated not by any
mere advancing Of the clock, but by
some more compulsory procedure. If
any time 10 Saved" by the new process
of clock fixing it will be for the people
to use it as they wish unless the gov
eminent imposes an obligation on them.
This "daylight-saving' proposition is
misleading. It cannot add to the wealth
of the country unless the people work
more, and the people will not work
more unless they have to do so. The
present tendency in the industrial world
is toward shorter hours, and it is diff
cult to conceive the trade unions, after
their long fight for a standard eight
hour day, agreeing to frightening of
the day for part of the year, even
though it may be compensated by a
shortening at another season.
The man who rises an hour earlier in
the morning in order to start work
sooner is likely to 60 to bed an hour
earlier at night in order to get his
usual amount of sleep. He is not to be
easily coerced into such change in
his schedule unless there is an advan-
tage in it for him. He cannot make
more money out Of it if he belongs to
Union, for he is prohibited from work
ing overtime, save under certain CON
ditions which obtain now as we'll as
under any system of daylight saving.
Undoubtedly if the country is put on a
universal training basis it will mean
that more work has been imposed upon
the people, and that will mean probably
an hour day on the average of time
now spent for recreation or pleasure
which will be devoted to the new proce-
dure. But that is wholly apart from
the daylight-saving plan. although un-
der the universal military training sys-
TEN, if the drilling is to be done daily,
some readjustment of working schedules
may be necessary. A.
