Fection Of Douai. Recently the opera
lions in the Cambria regions have been
suspended, doubtless in full accordance
with Gen. Foch's plan Of campaign.
Between Cambria and Le Cstelet ex-
tend the headwaters Of the Escaut, par
aileled by the st. Quentin canal. These
water courses constitute strong de-
fenive line. South Of LIE Catelet,
however, the natural defense facilities
are sighter, and q better field for the
allied advance is open. Should the
Germans seek another line than that
now running through Cambria, st.
Quentin, La Fere and the forest Of st.
Gobain it must be established some
miles to the east and retirement to it
will involve the surrender Of more than
half as much territory as that which
has been regained from the enemy
since the beginning Of the Montdidier
drive. But it must constantly be borne
in mind that the mere recovery Of area
is not Gen. Foch's objective in this
campaign. He is seeking to wear the
enemy down by successive assaults,
and that this process is succeeding is
indicated by the statement issued to-
day that in the last four weeks the
British have taken $4,000 prisoners and
$50 guns.

nomiaation, OF, achieving that, fail Of
reelection. What would Mr.. Ford's
course be during the four years be-
tween the end Of Mr.. Wilson's term in
the White House aud the end Of his
own term in the Senatef His term %
senator would run for six years.
Senator Lewis, who Is . candidate
for reelection, has recently said that
democracy must now be stated in now
terms; that the war has given things
political new meanings. He is. now
abroad on a special mission, but is ex-
pected back shortly, and upon his re-
turn he may pitch his own campaign
in the new key. He has active eppo-
sition, and the republican candidate
may press him on that point.
But if Mr.. Lewis fails, Mr.. Ford can
afford to respond. His cannot be the
old style democracy, and as it is the
new, the public would read his deiini-
tions and the arguments supporting
them with great interest. And Mr..
Nevberry, the republican candidate,
would be obliged to take notice Of them
in his campaign.

The Stumping Tour Abandoned.

The President gives excellent reasons
for abandoning his projected stump
ing tour. The fourth liberty loan is
safely on the way to successful nego-
tiation, and needs no special plea from
anybody; and other matters are so i'm
portant in their daily development
that his absence from his Office for
longer than a day or two would at
present be inadvisable.
Undoubtedly, the President would
have been received with enthusiasm at
every stopping place. Whatever he
had said on the subject Of the liberty
loan would have been so much to the
good for what required not another
word to promote it.
Equally interesting, too, would have
been any remarks made on other fea-
lures Of the war. He possesses so much
more information than the public does
that all disclosures and comments by
him would have been heard with deep
attention.
It is true, however, that the tour
would have been open to, criticism, and
that criticism would have been forth
coming. As The Star stated at the time
the suggestion of the tour was thrown
out, Mr.. Wilson is none the less the
leader of his party because President.
As its leader he naturally desires its
success in all things, and particularly
in this years elections. As President,
he wants another democratic Congress,
so as to insure continuation of the
power he is exercising over the pres
ent one.
Still, taking the stump at time
when a partisan campaign was in full
swing-with orators on both sides vocal
with partisan appeals for votes-wouid
have subjected the President to some
frank comment on the score Of pro-
priety, and especially in connection
with his now famous declaration that
politics is adjourned"
But in abandoning his stumping
tour the President does not take him
self out of the campaign. He could
not if he would. He is his party's
principal asset. If it wins in Novem-
Der the credit will be his, and the vic
tory 60 long way in support Of the
movement his friends have inaugurated
for a third nomination. He is eager
for victory, and giving support to
democratic candidates for House and
Senate; and he has demonstrated ON
many occasions the value Of presiden-
tial favor in such contests.

Mr.. Ford an Active Candidate.

Henry Ford will become an active
candidate for election to the United
States Senate. He was a passive can
didate for the republican and the dem
ocratic nominations. He submitted
his case on the strength of the Presi-
dents suggestion Of his name. The
republicans rejected him. The demo.
Gratis accepted him. He is running,
therefore, as . democrat, and an &C.
tive campaign will call for 3 declara-
ton Of principles either by pen or by
word of mouth. ..#..
Hitherto Mr.. Ford has taken small,
if any, part in politics. 80 little was
he known in the political world, in
decd. he could not be placed when his
name was first suggested. In some
quarters he was regarded a. repub-
ican, in others as democrat, and in
still others as . man without party af-
fliations Of any kind.
Now, however, BY his nomination
and his acceptance Of the nomination,
he stands identified. He il to all in
tents and purposes . democrat.
But what kind Of . democratf How
will he define democracy He is .
Wilson man, and Mr.. Wilson il demo-
crat. If elected to the Senate he will
support Mr.. Wilson's policies ~ to the
war, and maybe as to other things.
That would answer very we'll while
Mr.. Wilson remained P1eident. But
suppose Mr.. Wilson should fail Of 70

Back on the Old Lines.

Late developments on the western
front indicate the virtual closing up
Of the line to the old positions from
which the Germans launched their Of
fensive in March. Practically from
Cambria to the Aisne the allies are
now on the ground from which they
we're driven by the enemy's surprise
rush five and a half months ago. But
they have done more than recover ter
rain. They have put the enemy in a
position Of defense. They are still
pressing him backward. Three Of the
German pivot points in the linden
burg line are now under direct FIRE,
Cambria, st. Quentin and La Fere.
La Fere 10 80 closely approached as
to be now useless as communication
center and is merely a bastion. The
capture Of Servais, south Of La Fere,
and Fort dc Liez, northwest Of that
town, renders its further occupation
by the enemy extremely hazardous.
But the capture Of La Fere will now be
EASILY accomplished for the reason that
beh3ad it lies . network Of streams,
cempeising the confluence Of the Disc
and The Serre. Farther north the process
Of snvsaoping st. Quentina continues.
Tho French lines have been advanced
to points almost due south Of the city,
while the British, are pressing in
toward L. Catelet. If these advances
are continued at the present rate for
three. moro days st. Quentin will be
wall within the jaws Of the pincers.

Car Service.

inquiry by the Senate into the local
transportation conditions should result
in q disclosure not only of the present
state of affairs-patent to anybody who
observes the streets at any hour Of the
day-but the actual prospect of relief
from the congestion ON the lines. The
resolution aims at the return Of facts
that will indicate the steps that have
been taken to secure better facilities
for carrying the people. 1t is known
that additional cars were ordered some
months ago, and it is now stated that
delays have occurred and that the best
to be expected is their arrival by the
LIST Of November. That will be at least
two months behind the time originally
promised.
The problem of local transportation
10 complicated by the difficulty of Sc
curing men to operate the cars. Wage
increases have been just announced by
the Washington Railway and Electric
Company and are in contemplation by
the Capital Traction Company. With
those increases it is hoped to secure
and to hold sufficient staff of opera
tives. But with them will probably
come demands by the companies, one
Of them almost assuredly, for an in
creased fare. This demand, as has been
heretofore urged, should be most care
fully considered, with reference to the
actual needs Of the company. in terms
OF the greatly increased business and
the average Of car earnings.
It is stated that an increase in the
number of trips is calculated to in
crease the congestion on the down
town lines. This, however, does not
necessarily follow. If the cars oper-
/. ated are maintained in full repair and
are handled with proper care the break
downs that are the chief cause of con-
gestion will be avoided. Most of the
delays in carrying the people on at
least one of the two main lines are due
to car failures. The percentage of
"cripples" has lately increased to the
point at which it is seldom that cars
are run through on schedule.
It will be impossible to build new
lines in season to relieve the conges-
, ton this fall. As a result of nearly
nine months Of expert study some
beneficial changes have been accom-
plished. The skip-stop system has
, helped in the moving of the cars more
rapidly, though the public has not gain
cd any material advantage therefrom,
owing to the constant increase in pop
j ulation and the failure to introduce
new rolling stock, and the increased
degree Of car failures on one of the
lines. Recruiting on the Capital Trac-
ton system has given certain groups
Of car riders greater facility of reach
ing their places of business and their
homes, but others have lost accommo-
dations correspondingly.
More cars and more operatives are
the urgent need. Until they can be
had tho service will be inadequate.

Food Prices and the Public.

Assurance by the members Of the
Washington Grocers' Protective Asso-
citation that its members will give
Food Administrator Wilson loyal and
helpful support in his efforts to Sc
euro q more effective observance Of
the fair-price list should greatly help
in the establishment of the new sys-
tenn designed to prevent profiteering.
This is q most commendable course.
Upon the grocers themselves chiefly de-
ponds the success Of any system Of food
price regulation, short Of actual price
fixing by the government. Thus far
there is NO disposition to establish ar
bitrary prices. Many factors enter
into the price equation, and it is i'm.
possible to set retail rates peremptorily
with justice to dealers. That IL the rea-
son for the range between the maximum
and minimum prices in the list pro-
claimed by the food administration.
It cannot be too often urged that
upon the people themselves largely
depends the success of the fair-price
method Of regulation. They must CO.
operate with tho administrator by
closely watching the official price lists
and noting the prices charged them by
their dealers. If they buy without
discrimination, paying whatever is
asked, and then, when they find that
they have paid more than they should,
merely grumble about high prices it
will be impossible to secure relief.
Many people prefer to pay what is
charged without complaint rather than
have trouble. Some do not under
stand the workings Of the fair-price
list and fail to take into account the
question Of quality or the item Of serv-
ice. Discrimination 10 required in all
cases. But above all every purchaser
of food should bear in mind that to
the extent that he watches the bills
and compares them with the fair-price
!, list he is working to his own interest
and the welfare Of others.
