Registering Liberty Bonds.

The Treasury Department Is study
ing plan for the registration of
Liberty bonds of the fourth loan I'M
der which each bond would bear a
coupon which the purchaser could
ill out, detach and mail to Washing
ton, where it would be properly filed
away. The bond could not be trans.
ferred without recording the transfer,
and the loss OF bonds by theft would
be guarded against measurably.
1t is also probable that In opera
tion such scheme would prevent
many holders Of small bonds from
exchanging them for worthless secu-
rifles offered by glib swindlers who
promise larger returns than the Gov
eminent or any legitimate business
will promise. Not few Of these ras-
Gals make their trades hand to hand.
They have their bogus stock certifi-
Gates in their pockets, they meet their
victims and talk them into a state OF
financial imbecility and get the good
bonds before the unfortunntes whose
savings they are stealing recover
their senses. In great many cases
the game could not be worked II the
bonds were not Immediately avail
able, or IL their transfer involved
correspondence with Washington, in
the course Of which delay would give
opportunity for reflection.
One of the greatest benefits that
can possibly come to the country
from the war is to have the bonds OF
the United States owned by its citi-
zens in small lots. Any scheme that
will encourage this Is distinctly in
the public interest; and any scheme
that will make 1t more difficult for
thieves to rob innocent patriotic in
vestors will have the support of
everybody except the thieves

The Progress OF the Great Battle.

The attempts Of the Germans to
stop General FOCH's advance have
become more determined since his
forces crossed the Ourcq, and yester-
days news brought the information
that at points on the French and
American fronts the enemy had been
able to organize counter attacks of
considerable magnitude which were
successful in forcing us to give up
some Of the villages we had gained.
This is normal development Of the
battle, and in no way signifies the
halting of our troops generally, or the
permanence of the German line US
it now exists.
In the counter attacks launched
against the American troops our men
showed the spirit Of veterans, and
withdrew from untenable positions
with the same admirable military
spirit and good discipline they had
previously displayed In their dashing
assaults on the Germans. 1t is I'M
der conditions Of adversely that the
morale of troops Is most bitterly
tested. A victorious army may pre-
serve its organization without par
ticular glory to its personnel; but
the units that'can take beating and
still retain their cohesion exhibit
their privutes and officers in the
most creditable light. Our army has
had large part in the winning of
splendid victory; 1t is not going TO
experience defeat but the manner in
which 1t has accepted temporary set
backs indicates its capacity to with
stand the hardest blows that can fall
on a fighting force.

The reckless and lavish lying of
the Prussian authorities is thing
to amaze the merely unveraclous.
They have consistently falsified for
home consumption the actual history
of the war. They have inflated the
prospects and they have distorted or
denied the facts. They said that the
United States was invaded from the
air; they said first that the Amerl-
cans would not come to France, then
that they had not come, then they
were negligible as fighting force.
And these lies are but few of
the most credible. Every day others
are reported, SO wild that one can
hardly imagine fools great enough to
tell them or to believe them.
For all this card house of home
propaganda the Prussian will have

Nor will there be injustice to the in

This will not apply to Australians or
Irish, unless the empire applies COM

nation Of slackers now living under
two flags. Both armies will be in
creased. and there Will disappear the
feeling Of injustice that has been har-
bored among persons who saw aliens
escape the draft while they them
selves or their relatives were taken.
OF course great many Brltish-snb-
jects have been enlisting at the en-
pire's recruiting stations in New
York. but the treaty will clean the
slate. British subjects who have
taken out their first papers for cti.
zenship here will be permitted to en-
list within the next two months in

Failing to take advantage of this
privilege, they will be prepared for

Considering the care and delibera-
ton that attaches to all treaties, this
one has been brought with good speed
to an equitable conclusion. 1t treats
every man as II he were in his own
country.

to MooNEY's conviction, Mr.. MALONE
ought to designate the corrupt capi-
talists and tell for what purposes and
to whom they paid their money.
Mere glltterlng generalitles only
serve to infame popular passion,
oftentimes against those who are
wholly innocent Of offence. We are
not yet prepared to believe that the
whole judicial system Of California
is incompetent, perverted and cor
rupt; and 1t Is only fair to the great
body Of the judiciary Of that State
that Mr.. MALONE should tell the pub
lie who were the men whose judicial
intrigue" brought about the convlc-
ton which he denounces as unjust.
The connection is not obvious be-
tween the Russian revolution and the
Mooney case; yet Mr.. MALONE finds
In the Russian revolution signs of
the better conditions which nre to
prevail in the reconstruction period
after the war Assuming that there
is merit In MONEYS case, 1t will
not be helped by praising revolu-
ton which has brought great ma
ton into n condition Of anarchy and
made its people slaves to n reign Of
terror. Mr.. MALONE may find hope
in that sort of thing, but most intelli-
gent Americans find nothing but hor.
ror in It.
MONEYS cause will only be in
jured by extravagant and intemper-
ate utterances in his behalf. His
friends should confne themselves to

tending to show that he was wrongly

THE SIGN OF GLORY.
Would II Be Well to Make the Gold
Star on the Flag Official?

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUS-Sir. At
various times within the last few
months there have appeared in THE
SUN letters from persons suggesting
method of indicating the death of
one In the service OF his country.
Some have suggested the substitution of
the red star for the blue one. others
the placing OF a golden star on the
blue star, while some suggested the
method of placing across the blue star
a golden band. half an inch wide. of
taffeta ribbon. The substitution of
the black star for the blue was advo-
Gated by many who claimed that black
was the symbol of mourning. Other
suggestions were made. such as placing
the gold star on the red margin. the
white star on the red margin. the red
star in the white field and the golden
circle around the blue star.
Notwithstanding all these suggestions.
however, no method of indicating a
soldiers or sailors death has been Off
cially approved. Persons flying service
flags use the method best suited to their
taste and let it go at that. Some
means should be found to standardize
the manner in which a death in the
service shall be indicated. Then there
will be no misunderstanding and the
public will be enabled to tell at a glance
that a man from this or that household
has made the great sacrifice.
In view of the need of standardizing
method would it not be a good idea
TO adopt the gold star and place 1t on
the service flag TO indicate the death
OF one in the service? This suggestion
is made as the result of the President 8
approval of the suggestion that relatives
Of American soldiers and sailors lost in
the service wear black band with a
gold star for each member of the family
giving his life in defence OF the nation.
In giving 1t his approval the president
made no mention OF the service flag. but
so long as he approved Of the gold star
as the method of indicating the death
Of one in the service what is to prevent
the method being used for service flags ?

The Mooney Case-the Last Phase.

IL the verdict In the celebrate
Mooney case was wrong The defend
ant should have new trial, or If the
statutes of California do not permit
that, he should be relieved of the
penalty by the exercise of the par
doning power.
No one will dissent from this propo-
sitlon. All depends, however, on the
question whether the verdict was
wrong or not.
Mr.. DUDLEY FIELD MALONE asserts
that "by judicial intrigue, outra-
geous technically and capitallstic cor
ruption every constitutional and le-
gal right has been perverted and
MOONEY is in Jail in the shadow of
execution"
This Is grave charge against the
courts of California to be made by
the sOn-in-law OF former United
States Senator and a man who was
SO highly esteemed by President WILL
SON that he made him Collector of
the Port of New York.
Now, Mr.. MALONE knows very well
that respectable and responsible
lawyer ought not to make such accu-
sations without evidence to sustain
them. To warrant the charge that
MOONEY has been the victim of "ju-
dicial intrigue" he ought to be able

amples Of Injustice.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN--Sir: The
arguments set forth in THE SUN in be-
half of underpaid public servants are
in some instances about to bear fruit
Immediately, while many others, it is
safe to say, will be provided for under
the budget of next year.
Connected with title company for
many years as searcher and having
necessarily daily recourse to city and
county offices in the prosecution of my
duties, I have noticed many and glazing
inequalities and injustices in the salaries
of the employees.
Almost as a rule the poorly paid
clerk does the work. while the fellow in
charge looks wise and keeps his finger
nails we'll trimmed and polished
But that is not the worst. The little
boss as a rule receives a salary wholly
disproportonate to the services he rem
ders.
Let me cite you an instance of few
things in a New York county office
few years ago:
The Bureau of Standards was trying
to standardize salaries. One boss" who

division by occult influences had his
salary of $4,000 untouched. while an
other with twelve men under him had
his salary reduced from $4,000 to $4,000;
and another, with five men under him,
was cut from $4,000 to $1,000. The
Bureau of Standards did not know
either of those men, but political pull"
did the trick. ] am inclined to think
that the head of the office should be
given sole power to determine the
qualifications and compensation of those
serving under him, In which event
believe more even handed justice would
obtain. TITLE EMPLOYEE.
