Christmas Mail.

There ought TO be a ready respopse
on the part If the public in the matter
OF Christmas mail for American soldiers
and sailors abroad. Mail early" "ad-
dress plainly" and "pack securely" are
the watchwords. Christmas mail, ard of
course that includes Christmas gifts,
should reach the troops and sailors on
Christmas morning. The Postmaster
General and Secretaries Baker and Dan
lels have issued joint statement in
which they say that Christmas packages
Tor the forces in Europe must be mailed
not later than November 10.
1t Is the object Of the authorities 70
deliver the Christmas mail on Christ
mas morning, and it is urged ON all
persons who intend to give tangible
form to their thoughts of the men over
seas that they write on every package in
conspicuous way the words "Christmas
mail" the complete address of the per
SON for whom it is intended and in the
upper left-hand corner the name and
address of the sender.
Another matter that ought not to be
forgotten is that every parcel must be
so packed that its contents may be
easily inspected by the postal author

France which has not the postmaster s

at the beginning Of the regular session,
it will be full time for a fair test Of
them.
There will be no question of greater
consequence before Congress next SEES
sion than that Of allotting for war pur-
poses the enormous sums of money the
war is calling for The war is on, and
the people are expecting it to be con-
Quoted with vigor and all the latest
equipments. The bills will be large, and
are likely to grow in size as the strug-
gle continues.
But these very facts warn against
waste and confusion. Appropriations
should be made wisely as well as iber-
ally. The work should be done with the
utmost care, and by men of large iegis-
lative experience. Trained eyes should
be set to survey the whole field of
needs, and trained judgments to pass
upon the estimates of executives
The authority requested would make
the committee receiving it one of very
great power. But the check would re-
main, as it now is, in the full House.
For all the bills reported by the COM
mittee would have to pass through the
fires of debate in the open chamber, and
all mistakes could be corrected there
The process is that committee making
appropriations passes upon estimates
submitted by executives, and the House
in turn passes upon the recommends
tons of the committee.
The war figures are the largest ever
under discussion in this country, and
are leading to some sharp differences
OF opinion among public men in and
out of Congress as to their real size
Many billions separate some estimates
from others. The lowest estimates would
have staggered the public six months
ago, while the highest stagger the public
now
Between now and meeting day II De
eember this question should be examined
in all its aspects by those who must de-
eide it, and who, of course. will want
to decide it for the country's good

state, by heavy vote. The city-Tam-
many's stronghold-did very poorly by
both.
We may expect Tammany to deny
this. In fact, the charge Is not new, and
has already been denied. It has been
explained for Tammany that it was
heavily handicapped in its appeal for
votes by the Presidents conspicuous
neglect of the organization, and by the
impression produced that If reelected
he would continue the neglect. "How
was it possible" the Tammanyites asked,
"to stir the rank and file for candi-
date with such a recorda"
AS yet, the administration has taken
no part in the present campaign. 1t does
not like Tammany, but does like Mr..
Mitchell. Now that the mayor, as the re-
suit of the primary, is cup against"
lican nomination, and the betting odds
against him-wiH the administration as
sist hi1n7 Some of its New York friends
are for, some against, the mayor. If the
administration were to signify in some
way its desire for a second term for Mr..
Mitchell would its friends, and particu-
larly those holding official commissions
from it, exert themselves in the mayors
behalf?
AS many are beginning to realize,
there is much more than the mayoralty
of New York involved in this fight. The
result may affect conditions in the
state, and even in the country Tam
many's first thought, of course, is of
the town Its commissary department
demands local success. But that, if
achieved, will not satisfy the full Tam

secured, "drive" for control of the

Tamnany and the President.

'1t's an i'll wind that blows nobody

mayoralty primary is producing charges

tt affc and Accidents.

The police department is hestirring
itself TO reduce the number of street
accidents. not that the department has
heretofore been lax, for it has not. but
II IS now putting forth extra efforts to
grapple with a dangerous situation
which is becoming more dangerous with
the increasing volume of traffic and in
creasing density of population. This is
not alone a Washington problem. il is
a problem III most OF the cities of the
United. States. If traffic regulations
could eliminate street accidents thew
would have been eliminated. Traffic
regulations within this city have been
! quite we'll reasoned out in the past and
are being made more stringent. They
are revised from time to time as the
increase of traffic and the experience of
the police show revision to be desirable.
Il Is IN the observation of the regula-
lions by drivers and pedestrians and the
enforcement of the regulations by the
police that safety lies. The absolute en-
| forcement of the regulations at all
/ times by the police is impossible. There
! are not enough police, and to make
perfect job of enforcing the regulations
would require such an extension of the
police department as taxpayers could
not afford. At rough calculation it
not
would have to be a policeman. But so
far as is within their power to do it the
police should enforce with good sense
and without favor the regulations as
adopted. That would help some.
On the other hand there should be
obedience 20 the regulations by drivers
and pedestrians and the application by
them of common sense and common
caution That is big order, for every
day one may observe drivers nd pedes-
TRANS who seem to have neither com
mon sense nor common caution After
the regulations are adopted the problem
is cup to" the police, the driver and the
man who walks
The unavoidable accident is a yery
much overworked term There are au-
thorities who hold that there is no such
thing as the unavoidable accident.
While some accidents are the result Of
rashness others are due to carelessness
end stupidity, and carelessness and
stupidity are very closely allied, and are
usually combined in the same person.
The rule of every driver should be TO
attend strictly to his driving and keep
/ his car under such control that he can
| stop it in an instant The man who is
rolling along street at twenty miles
an hour, as many do, holding a con
versation with lady in the back seat or
looking after acquaintance on the
sidewalk is a candidate for ian unavoid-
able accident" The man who crosses the
street without looking where he is 20
ing or what is coming, his mind rapt in
meditation or his eyes focused on a
newspaper, is another candidate for the
unavoidable accident"

Now Only American Militancy

The theory IF the militant sufragettes
that militancy against ones own govern
ment and laws is at this time an aid
to their cause is fundamentally unsound
The only nilitancy today which finds
favor with the American people is mill
fancy against the national enemy on the
other side of the ocean
All other forms of militaney, which
hamper or embarrass the nation in is
struggle for life. should be suspended
If we have grievance against our own
government let US postpone'it until after
the enemy is disposed Of And let us so
vigorously, unselfshly and whole heart
eddy sustain our own government while
hostilities continue that after the war is
ended we shall be held entitled by com
mon consent TO redress of grievances as
a reward of patriotic devotion. This rule
of conduct applies not only to our
women but to residents of the District
Of Columbia
If there is Inconsistency in our going
70 war to establish representative gov
eminent and overthrow autocracy in all
the rest Of the world while by our Con
stitution and laws we deny representa-
tive government 81 home to American
women and to American residents of the
National Capital, both men and women.
this inconsistency is not to be corrected
through duress of threats or of black
mail applied to our own government in
death grips with a powerful adversary.
Today's duty of the American woman,
nd of the Washingtonian, as Of every

The nation will not, we may be sure,
take advantage of this unselfsh patriotic
devotion to perpetuate the evil of non
representative government SO far as
women and residents of the District are
concerned. After the war, or even dur
ing the war if the struggle is prolonged.
the nation may be expected of its own
accord, in response to our petitions and
In the national interest, to do full
justice politically to the American
woman and also by constitutional
amendment to abolish the evil and in
jury-working paradox of non represent

Let US Americans who are politically
unrepresented organize and petition:
but let US recognize that our primary
duty today is to fight vigorously and
enthusiastically for country, and let all
our militant manifestations be saved for

An never kick, if folks would leave mo
