A story is told Of the Japanese that
when they came to erect their build
ing at the Chicago Worlds Fair site
was assigned them among other
buildings with no opportunity to de-
velop the landscape adjoining. They
protested, but were told they would
have to take the Occasion assigned.
whereupon they declined to do any
thing and prepared to leave for home.
A site was then found on an island
and as q result the building erected
and Its garden setting was one OF the
gems of the exposition.
A combination Of house and garden
inf appropriate treatment is meeting
with successful appreciation in some
parts of this country. and the archi-
tect now considers 1t a necessary part
OF the scheme to deal with the land
scape treatment adjacent to the house.
Evening star., 1918-05-25

Every house should have a garden,
however small. as the japanese claim,
and it should conform in it's style to
the house. The English are also i'm
pressed with this idea. and have de-
veloped their type Of treatment, which
seems to conform to their styles Of
architecture.
In the early days Of this country our
architecture, the so-called colonial.
was copied from the prevailing Eng
lish type, and we are quite familiar
with the gardens which accompanied
these houses. many Of which have
survived to the present day.

Editorial Opinion
REFORMING THE GERMAN
DIpL LOMATIC SERVICE.

From the New York sun.
Nv recalling Heinrich Won Eckhardt,
the Minister to Mexico appointed by
the Imperial German Government, the
present Government Of Germany has
removed from this hemisphere a man
whose activities have given grave con
Germ 10 the authorities at Washington
and TO the people Of this country.
In CARRYING out the policy OF his SUI
periors in Berlin, Minister Won Eek
hardt has been accused Of directing
system of propaganda designed to en-
broil Mexico and the United States, ana
his activities are alleged to have con
tributed not little to the dinlculties.
that have arisen between the TWO re-
publcs. His retirement is assumed IN
Washington TO mean the abandonment
OF the projects TO which his efforts
were devoted. and with this malign IN
fuence removed our relations with
Mexico should be greatly improved.
II is probable that Minister Won Eek
hardCs recall means more than the
elimination Of a cause Of annoyance and
irritation TO the United states. 10 must
be plain 10 the men now in control IN
Germany that the rehabilitation OF that
nation requires complete recasting OF
the existing diplomatic service. The
men in office today represent the RUE
that has been overthrovn in Germany
They were trained In the imperial
school Their methods are those which
/ found favor with the individuals whom
Germany is casting out. Most Of them
cannot be expected 10 represent truly
and effectively the democratic nation
which is now forming. Their sympathies
generally are not with It,
One Of the earliest and hardest tasks
Germany must tackle is the establish
ment Of her diplomats in good standing
in neutral countries. In these countries
there are difficulties 20 overcome nc
less than In belligerent nations. On the
character and conduct Of the men Sc
lected for these posts much depends
and the subject must already be re-
ceiving the painstaking consideration
Of the men who have undertaken tC
build a new Germany.

system which is deadly wrong, is changed. We
have five departments doing secret service
work-the secret service, Secretary Lansing 8
own investigators and the investigating bu-
lreaus of the departments of justice, navy and
war They do not work in concert. No one OF
them knows what the Others are doing. All OF
these services are undermanned, underpaid
and in bad way, and until they are united IN
one organization under one head. the nation
can make no real Roadway against the German
propagandsts and spies.
On top of this ineffciency great many spies
who have been under arrest have been set
free no one knows why. Spies are released
from custody for indefinite periods to visit their
families or attend their business; and the pres
ent practice which may be discontinued follow
ing the revelations before the house naval al
fairs committee, appears TO be, when spy Is
trapped, to search the law books Tor some
iclause which makes it possible not to arrest
him: and il that cannot be found, to unearth
lgsyrne ancient statute u7a.S.Which he can be re-
leased. With this light thrown upon ttee-SfieS-
ficiencv and lack of coordination OF our sec
ret service organizations, many things begin to
be clearer than they were, including the fires OF
unknown incendary origin, which have de-
stroyed fifty million dollars worth OF munltlon
factories and stores of war supplies and food,
and the theft of valuable documents that would
lead to the conviction of German spies operat-
ing in this country.
