HAMproN,s GIFTS TO ruskneEE


 From Negro Training and Racial Good
 Will" by Jackson Davis, in the Amer
 ican Review of Reviews for November
 It has been truly said that Hampton would have been worth while if it had done nothing more than train Booker T. Washington and send him to Alabama to found Tuskegee Institute and become and acknowledged leader and interpreter of 100000 negroes in their upward strug- gle. The story of his journey from the coal fields of West Virginia to Hamp- ton, walking much of the way, passing his entrance examination by sweeping a room, and his brilliant career of service to the entire nation, as told in his up From Slavery" is a priceless heritage of his race. Dr. R. R. Moton, his able successor, was likewise trained at Hamp- ton, and as commandant there The Ma jor' handled all the delicate questions of race relations Dr. Frissell said of Mo- ton: He has helped me to understand his people," In his larger task he is helping negroes and white people to un- derstand and believe in each other. There Is a sort of apostolic succession in the relations of Armstrong and Wash ington and Frissell and Moton.

LORD GREENWOOD

From Lord Charnwood, a Great British | Liberal" by Wallace Buttrick, in the | American Review of Reviews for No- I vember.
 l If the world is to be made safe for
 democracy, the great democracies of the
 world must know, love, and trust one
 another. The great English-speaking ! democracies. largely sprung from the
 same stock and inspired by the same relations on this basis of knowledge, af- l lection and confidence.
 1 As between ourselves and the British l people. we encounter at the outset a traditional obstacle. We were told as children that the English people made war on the colonies in America, when we should have been taught that all that was liberal in English life refused to make warAon their brethren in America, so that the German King of England found is necessary to employ Hessians to fight his battles over here. As a that day were fighting the battles of the American democracy, just as the colonists were winning the battle of | English liberalism. A perverted history, however, made of the revolutionary war
 a nonconducting medium between the people of Great Britain and America. 1 The present war, in which Britain and
 America are fighting side by side, is surely destined to bring about a better understanding between all those who speak the English tongue The good feeling and mutual understanding thus begun may be most effectually developed through the friendly contact of /she peo-
 pie themselves rather than through for
 nal alliances.
 Lord Charnwood's visit to this country
 will prove a great and lasting contribu- ton to the coming era of good under standing and good feeling between the people of Great Britain and America.
 Lord Charnwood is democrat in con- viction, taste and habits. His homo life is simple and beautiful. At the lit- tie parish church near his home he reads the lessons on Sabbath morning.
 
 unaffected friendship with their neigh bors and servants.
 In public life his record is that of an
 uncompromising progressive. He has fre-
 quently appeared on the platform at meetings of labor unions and is every where regarded as friend and cham pion of labor. His democratic convic- tions are based on intelligent sympathy, wide reading, and thorough Knowledge
 of social and political conditions. Lord
 Charnwood has travelled extensively in America, has observed our institutions, appreciates our ideals. and in his Life of Abraham Lincoln" has given perhaps the finest interpretation of our great national hero. He has studied American
 constitutional history with rare insight
 and he approaches the problems of our
 social and political life with an amazing comprehension of every side of our his- tory,

ExTRAvAGANT PHOEBE SNOW ha F,

From the New Republic.
 Some of the reasons why the railroad administration is saving money are pointed out by Walter Weyl in the New Republic: "A year ago the Erie railroad was paying high salaries to employees whose sole task was to urge you to travel by the Erie or ship freight by the Erie instead of by the Pennsylvania or the New York Central The companies take business away from each other. Competitive advertising was on the same plane; Phoebe Snow insisted on your travelling by one line instead of the other. Time tables also were competi- tive, wasteful and aggressive. Each rail- road wished to run its own passenger trains at the best hours with the result that all were run at the same hour. Two 20-hour trains left Chicago at the same hour and arrived in New York at the same hour. Between Chicago and St. Paul, Chicago and St. Louis. Chicago and Kansas City, there were in each case from three to five trains running at the same hour, and therefore, running half not need all these trains. the railroad administration telescoped them It made one train run where three ran before; it ran as many full trains as the traf- fic warranted-and no more It also con- solidated certain passenger stations-al- lowing. for example, travelling on the Baltimore and Ohio to use the Pennsyl- vania terminal at New York. The rail- road administration thus eased the tram sition from a system of competing empty trains to one of consolidated full trains"

Americans successful Fighters

The reason that Americans are such successful fighters is that they have initiative said James Barton. They can rise to cope with any eIner- gency. They are not like a piece of machinery that has to be operated by a master. They can fight in organized companies, with machine guns, rifles, bayonets or any other kind of weapon.
 They can. too, if it becomes neces- sary resort to brickbats, their fists or any kind of clubs in warding off the thrusts of the enemy. The Ger mans can't do this; they have to wait to be told when to do anything"
