pairing national policy has ever been
approved by the American people.
The second thing Is that our new
tariff law must take into account
changes the war is making in other
countries besides our own. New tariff
laws when peace comes will be the rule.
Every European nation will be obliged
to revise its tariff; and as we shall
be trading with them, and they de-
sirous Of cultivating us, we must adj
just ourselves somewhat to their adj
justments. The policy Of ive-and-let-
live will survive the war.
We have never had an out-and-out
free trade tariff, and one could not be
enacted. But we have had tariffs
whose authors had inveighed against
protection while forced to hold on to
protective duties. The results were
hocus- pocus, which failed in operation.
Such was the Gorman-Wilson tariff Of
LOTT, Auu 1uCA 6l5O MIC OAuC1 WVVN
tariff of 1913.
Between those two enactments came
the Dingley tariff, framed on frank
protection lines, with protection OBJ
jects confessed and directly in view,
and it proved in operation great sue
cess. It not only raised all the reve-
nue. the government needed, but stimu-
lated production in all branches Of &C.
tivity, and completely restored bust
ness confidence, which, at the time, was
at the lowest ebb.
This history should not be, and is
not likely to be, lost on the men who
make the new tariff. But to mako GER
tain that it is not lost, the men Sc
lected for that work should be sound
in their tariff views.

Keep Up the Health Safeguards

The fact that public assemblages are
soon to be permitted in consequence Of
the waning Of the influenza epidemic
should not cause any relaxation Of rea-
sonable health precautions by indi-
viduals. It is still necessary to main
tain all safeguards against infection.
Those who are suffering from any pre-
monitory symptom should Immediately
seek medical attention. They should
smother all coughs and sneezes in pub
lie. The use Of masks is still desir-
able in cases where persons are e1-
posed to possible infection through as
ISOLATION with large numbers Of peo-
pie. The disease has not yet been fully
conquered, although it has been brought
under control and is steadily declining
in prevalence. To the extent that in
dividuals continue their care for their
own health the fight for the public
safety will be victorious.

The Issue Of Protection.

In his letter to Senator Simmons, the
President expressed regret that "the
DOGGY Of free trade" had been injected
into the discussion Of his peace terms.
He denied having in view any such
policy respecting our governmental af-
fairs.
The tariff looms large. It will be
the leading issue in the early period
of reconstruction War taxes will dis
appear, though not Immediately, with
the conditions that required them.
Peace taxes will be levied for the era
of peace. And, Of course, peace taxes
will require . revision Of the tariff.
A new tariff law will have to be en-
acted.
Two things may with safety be as
sumed. The new law must yield a
largo amount Of revenue. We shall not,
because We cannot, return to old fig
ures Of either income or outlay. There
viii be . large establishment to sup
port according to new and larger ne.
cessities. The war is making changes
which win not pass when it passes.

The Star has received many letters
expressive Of deep appreciation by the
writer's Of the position taken by this
paper in respect to the closing Of the
churches and the absolute prohibition
of public worship as means of COM
batting the influenza epidemic. These
letters have come from the laity as
well as from the clergy and from rep

There are far too many Of them for
publication, and The Star hereby ex-
presses its gratitude for these express
sions Of Endorsement, approval and
thanks.

can be NO doubt that this liquor is be-
ing brought into Washington for sale
in violation Of the law, for It comes
in quantities too great for individual
consumption.
Under the statutes and the court rul-
ings it is impossible to prosecute per-
sons for merely bringing liquor into
the District. Under q late ruling the
quantity Of liquor carried by q per-
son into zone Of military prohibition
is not regarded as evidence of inten-
ton to dispose Of it unlawful!y: A
man was arrested with twelve pints
and twenty six half pints in his pos
session, and the court held that he
could not be regarded as planning to
sell it.
In these circumstances the enforce
ment Of the prohibition law becomes
extremely difficult. 'Beotlegging" Is
SO profitable that it attracts large num-
bers, with most demoraizing results
both morally and industriaHy. What
ever the chances Of detection, the
chances Of punishment are SO slight,
owing to the necessity of absolute
proof of sale, that scores are running
liquor into the city and, it would also
seem, into the zones Of particular pro-
hibition with comparative immunity.
Just what can be done in the cir
cumstances is q serious problem. There
is no present prospect Of amendatory
legislation giving greater force to the
existing law and rendering prosecu
tons more effective. The emergency
prohibition legislation carried by the
agricultural bill is blockaded between
tho two houses. Meanwhile Washing
ton is suffering sorely. It seems
incredible that the daily spectacle Of
brazen wholesale importations for il
Lett sales should be suffered here while
in consequence Of the traffic crime is
increasing steadily in the capital.

Liquor Burning Under the Law.

Liquor 6U0n10S OAoeI TIC Law.
Under the Sheppard law prohibiting
the sale of liquor in this District in
toxicanrs may be brought in for per-
sonal consumption. Under the creed
the District Of Columbia is
not included in those areas Of prohibi.
ton into which it is unlawful to carry
or ship liquor. Therefore, as the law
stands, liquor may be brought into the
District, presumably for personal use.
That the law is being daily violated is
perfectly obvious Great quantities Of
intokieants are being brought into
Washington from Baltimore, chiefly on
the electric cars, the trahie having be-
come 20 heavy that special trains are
operated n order to separass to liquor

Andrassy's Appeal.

Count Andrassy's extraordinary note
to Secretary lansing, asking him to
"intervene" with the President to the
end of concluding an immediate armis-
tice, is a departure in diplomacy. It
betrays the intense eagerness Of the
government at Vienna to secure peace
at the earliest moment. But it cannot
be regarded as tantamount to sur
render, and nothing short Of surrender
will suffice to bring about cessation Of
hostilities. For surrender is essential
to the beginning of the process Of
peacemaking.
eve want to. stop fighting" in effect
cries Count Andrassy. Then the way
for Austria to secure an armistice by
the shortest route is to stop as Bull
garia did and put the matter up to the
military commanders in the field.
There can be no negotiations" with
Austria in the sense Of parley over
terms, any more than with Germany.
Austria-Hungary claims through
Count Andrassy to be putting her
house in order. Peace is necessary in
order to complete the proceeding.
Hungary has by resolution Of her
parliament started the process Of a
separation from the dual monar-
chy. But there remains in Hungary
one of the gravest problems Of all in
Europe, the status Of the Czechs, who
have been most grievously oppressed
by the Magyars. What is to be their
future, and what assurances are to be
given for the security of their auton-
omys What Of the Jugo- Slavs Of the
southf They are now in revolt. And
what of the German-Austrians, who re-
Gently declared for a separate state,
and, according to reports, are about to
send peace overtures Of their own to
this countrys
"Let US stop fighting and we will at
tend to these matters" urges Count
Andrassy. But those matters cannot be
left to the determination of the au-
thorities at Vienna or Budapest. Upon
the wise determination of the future Of
the subject races Of the dual empire
rests in large measure the stability Of
the peace that is to follow this war. Is
there a new force in Austria Hungary
making for unselfsh settlement Of
these questionsi No indication Of it
appears.
The decision has passed out Of the
hands of the former rulers Of the dual
monarchy. They have lost the war and
they must acknowledge the fact and
yield to ministrations. The decision
for peace is in their hands. They have
but to hoist the white flag on the field
and ask on what terms they will be al
lowed to stop fighting and the slaugh-
ter will cease.
Count Andrassy's appeal for armis-
tice may in one sense be equivalent to
surrender. But it must be the real
thing, not a mere equivalent, to Sc
cure the desired result Of cessation Of
hostilities. The appeal may be trans
mitted to the allies, as was the late
note of Germany, to be considered by
the military commanders with a view
to determining the conditions upon
which armistice will be granted. But
the fighting must continue meanwhile.
