Horticultural Board Of the Depart ment of Agriculture, charged with the enforcement of the Plant Quarantine Act, prohibits the entry of all horti- cultural products likely to carry insect pests unless they have been rendered free from danger as pest carriers eith- CT by Federal inspection or by treat ment by approved methods under Fed eral supervision.
 The Department also has establish ed in the Hawaiian Islands a system of , inspection that is heartily supported by fruit growers and transportation companies whereby all plantations and packing houses from which fruit is shipped are kept from becoming sour ces of fruit fly dissemination. No shipments of fruit can be made from Hawaii to the Pacific Coast or un- | loaded theRe unless they have first re- ceived Federal approval. The Fed eral Horticultural Board also main- tains a fruit-fly specialist whose duty it is to gather available information regarding this pest either by travel in foreign lands or by correspondence with specialists serving foreign gov ernments.

ministration, everything considered, to
lift the gasless Sunday rule in time to
let the saddened motorist east of the
Mississippi get a little Sabbatical

poseful week-ends had begun to pail a
little. Automobiles had got mod

tiresome and fascinating way.
And that is all right. 1t is a free
country. Men and women have a
right, even in war time, TO choose
their own recreation. The various
industries connected with automobile
traffic doubtless have their rights. too.
1t is proper to lift the ban as soon as
the emergency is past
AT the same time. motorists will
do well to heed the warning of the

In reference TO the Curfew Law as
applied TO Annapolis, an important
question has arisen in reference 10
the method of enforcing the law. In
deciding such an important point it is
helpful TO inquire as 10 the method
used in some other city or State. New
Hampshire has made the Curfew Law
a State Law / shall quote from a
copy of that Law: For the first Of
Tense, the child is to be taken home
by the officers. and the parents or
guardian notified of the penalty for
any subsequent violation. For the
second offense, the child is to be con-
yicted and punished by a fine not ex-
ceeding $500, or Imprisonment in Jail
not exceeding 80 days"
do not think that the Imprisonment
clause would necessarily have TO be
used in the enforcement of this ordi-
nance in Annapolis But with that ex-
eeption | think that the method of
procedure followed by New Hampshire
might be adopted here.
/ hope that the ordinance will be
passed in the near future. / believe
it will prove to be most beneficial.

the Curfew Law, said. 1T is the most
important municipal regulation, for

DEMOCRATIC TICKET
THE KEYSTONE OF PEACE

There Is much talk of "reconstruc'
ton" lately But most of il is general
and vague. There is not enough rec
ognition OF the biggest and most i'm
portant job that has to be done in
shaping the new world that all ideal
lists expect to grow out of, and COM
pensate for, the world war.
That job is the establishment of
league of nations TO enforce peace.
President Wilson has spoken of il
repeatedly. 1t is without doubt, in his
mind, the keystone of the arch OF
peace. The American people are fam
liar with the idea. and almost unani-
mously in favor OF it. OF all "Ameri-
can policies injected into the war
this is perhaps the most typically
American.
Yet most Americans are content to
leave il in the realm of abstraction
The peoples with whom we are allied
agree to Il in a passive sort of way,
instead of seizing upon it as the most
vital thing in the whole Allied war
program. The Allied governments,
while giving their academic assent. dc
not appear to be actually engaged in
shaping any concrete plan for putting
IL into effect.
In time of war. prepare for peace!
The end of hostilities may come be-
fore we expect it, and find the forces
of righteousness unprepared to make
their righteous principles Immediately
and permanently effective.
Everybody who has any brains, any
patriotism. any sense of history, any
interest in the future of the human
race. ought to think about that pro-
posed Peace League, and talk about
1t. Every statesman particularly
ought to concern himself with it.
Every government ought to be busy
with constructive plans.

THEY CAN GO

II the Germans really want TO get
out of France and Belgium, there is
nothing to prevent them.
They seem to be greatly hampered
now, in their retreat, by the pressure
of Foch's armies and the difficulty of
getting their own troops out un-
scathed But this difficulty is more
apparent than real What Foch is
primarily trying to do is to prevent
them from getting away with their
vast quantities of war material
He wants to kill and capture Ger
mans, of course; but if those Germans
were minus their artillery, rifles, ma
chine guns and other fighting equip
ment, he would care very little what
became of them.
1t is that same material that is caus-
ing the Germans nearly all their
trouble. The old Romans, the great
military nation of antiquity, had an
apt name for fighting equipment.
They called ii 'impedimenta," word
Wnlcn means exactly what II seems
to. and whose full import the Germans
are now realizing.
But those Germans have an easy and
logical remedy. Without their inn
pedimenta, they could get away easily
enough. They could march toward
Germany a good deal faster than Foch
could follow them. And if they mean
to stop fighting, they won't need their
fighting material
All the Huns have got to do, then. to
save themselves and persuade the
world of the sincerity of their peace
professions, is to drop everything and
walk out. 1t is just as easy as that.
1t is so simple and so logical that
of course they won't do it,

In a lettre to President Wilson, H.
G. Quinby, chairman of the executive
committee of the American Defense
Society, writes as follows: 1T is con-
WINGED to be a duty of the American
Defense Society to present from time
TO time to the Government for its in
formation such public opinion brought
to its notice as is evidenced by the
views of intelligent and patriotic citi-
zens. May we then transmit to you
the suggestion that immediate action
is demanded because of Germany's en-
croachments upon Russia and the Far
East. There is a general belief that
the aid of the fighting millions of Japan
and China is needed for the winning
of the war, if it is to be won without
unnecessary delay and an unwarranted
and appalling loss of American lives"
The last statement gives the view Of
large and increasing body of our
people. We are fighting this war with
an arm tied. The superb army of
Japan is idle. If this were Japan's
choice; if she took the position that
beyond standing guard against the ac-
tual attack of Germany upon the con-
tiguous territory she did not feel will
ing to actively engage in the war,
then there would be valid reason for
this state of things. But Japan is
ready to undertake war work which
she thinks ought to be done and in
which judgment our allies concur. If
it is as vitality necessary to defeat Ger
many as the President has said and as
we believe, then failure to use Japan's
aid when it is offered is an anomaly
