The Third Liberty Loan.

The promptness with which the House
and Senate have passed the bill author
izing the third liberty loan is a guaran-
tee that there will be no slackening on
the part of Congress in kaeping the gov
ernment supplied with funds for the
successful prosecution of the war. There
was no haggling over the amount or the
terms. There will be none in the future
as additional loans may become neees-
sary.
This loan will succeed. as have the
others. Of that there can be no doubt.
Whether as many individuals will take
the bonds as before is a question to be
answered only by the results. 1t is to
be hoped and really expected that a
larger number Of people will invest in
these securities The fact that the loan
il launched Immediately following the
German drive will not lessen its chances
Of being large popular success. There
is no slackening Of confidence on ac-
count of tho Teutonic purchase of a few
miles Of front at an appalling cost.
Preparations for putting the bonds be-
fore the people are already well ad-
vanced. A remarkably efficient bond
selling machinery has been created dur
ing the past year and is now available
for this third drive. Washington's 5
quota win be oversubscribed, as usual.

took too little time.
This record will be repeated while tn

after the war has closed. Congress, for
long time, is going to be a very busy
body. Legislative work of many kinds

Solving a Difficult Problem.

All Washington will hope that the
local street railways may 50 coordinate
and cooperate in the public interest
that they will solve the capitals war
time transportation problem. and avoid
commandeering by the nation for the
period OF the war or permanent confis-
cation of their property under so-ealled
municipal ownership.
The special conditions in Washing
toms case instead of compelling resort
TO municipal ownership declare against
Il. 1t has been demonstrated to be un-
necessary. 1t is premature, not only be.
cause it should await the test Of govern
ment regulation by commission, but De-
cause the time has not yet arrived in
Washington when municipal ownership
!, here will mean control Of public utiii-
! ties by the people Of the community.
In our reasonable resentment seainst
the almost intolerable service condi-
tions Of today, We must not forget that
the hardships endured are distinctly
tenperary; that the causes Of existing
evils will in large part cease to exist at
sths ending Of the war; and that those
eanses which are internal and admin
istfative are capable Of remedy, and are
even now being gradually remedied.
Whatever degree Of control of the
street Yaifsays the nation may exercise
under the war power, n war neceuity,
and for the period Of the var, the issue
Of psssssnsnt manieiDal swnership and
spesatisa should be left for decision to
= Dsserics refessnd.n when peace ha1

4 No one but the District taxpayers
themselves should determine whether OF
net they sAan be burdened, in violation
ssf the organic act, with these millions
Of beaded debt in order to purchase
street railways over the operation Of
which they win have no control.

Garden Clubs,

Garden clubs are now forming through
out the District, and give promise Of q
big crop Of vegetables for the season.
This is an excellent way to conduct the
campaign for a full food supply. By
association cooperation is secured. Ex-
.perierce is utilized Mistakes are avoid
ed. These garden clubs will become
clearing houses for garden information.
Cooperative thought will work for re-
suits a. well as cooperative labor. Some
Of the clubs may pool their efforts and
divide the proceeds. Others will remain
~ guiding councils. Both kinds will
make for a large increase in the local
garden acreage and production. They
promise abundance Of table supplies
during the coming season.

No Eight-Hour Department Day.
Agreement by the eonferees on the
agricultural appropriation bill to elimi-
nate the so-called BorlaAd amendment to
leAgthsn the departmental working day
by one hour relieves the government
workers cf menace to their health and
the government itself Of the danger Of
. deterioration Of the service. There
has never been justification for this pro-
posal, 80 contrary to the established rules
Of equitable employment. The Senate's
refusal to adopt it was in line with gen.
eral hope. Now the conferees have put
It beyond the chance Of enactment, for
which everybody who is at work for the
government and those who are con-
cerned for the welfare Of these people
are grateful. With the eight hour day
for the department workers negatived
the daylight-saving system will, in fact,
save daylight for those who are engaged
in tho government offices for such labors
in the open air as may make for the
benefit Of the community and for their
own physical we'll being.
