Agitators threatened a general strike
in France, Italy, England and Austria,
which was scheduled for July 2lst. There
was no general response. 1t is gratifying
to find that the workers have thus re-
fused to yield to the more radical Social
ist demands in this matter. A general
strike of the sort predicted by the Social
lists could not have failed to cause un-
told suffering among millions of innocent
women and children, and the workers
of the world have shown their human
lty and sound judgment in abstaining
from it.

The Attorney General at Home

Attorney General Palmer, whose
ambition to be the Democratic candi-
date for President explains much of
his conduct, seems to be favorite
son not much favored at home. The
opposition to BIN among Pennsyl-
vanla Democrats is pronounced, and
rs Will have to struggle to keep even
the leadership of the party in the
state, which he now enjoys.
The trouble dates back to the state
election Of last year, when Judge
Bonniwell ran as Democratic candi-
date for Governor. At that time his
enemies in the party were Messrs.
Palmer and Mccormick, who had the
support Of the Administrations. The
Judge won his nomination in the face
of this opposition. Now he is a
candidate for place on the Demo
cratic National Committee, in full
confidence that he will be elected, and
incidentally remarks that there is
increasing distrust Of the traitorous
Palmer leadership" and that not
more than about third Of the Penn
sylvania delegates to the national
convention will be friendly to Pal
mer's nomination.
A favorite son who is not a IA
vorite where he is best known has
something to explain. He doesn't
start off with all the enthusiasm tc
be desired. Nor are there any
visible signs that the voters are
hurrahing for Palmer anywhere. He
has done nothing outside Of Penn
sylvania to indicate that he is Of
Presidential size.

Safety Laws

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir The article which appeared on
the third page Of to-day's December
10 issue of The Tribune. under the
heading Rail Safety Laws Evaded, Is
Charge makes interesting reading
for the general public However, the
statements made by Mr. Borland are
so misleading to one who is not ia
miliar with the subject discussed that
wish TO call your attention TO the
erroneous conclusions which the reader
is likely to draw from the article
Your abstract quotes Mr.. Borland's re
port correctly and states that il the
matter of operating trains with power
brakes the railroad companies have
"disregarded the maximum require
ment that all cars so equipped with
power brakes must be connected and
the brakes in operation" If you will
turn to Page of Mr. Borland's
report you will find in the third para
graph the following statement: Not
withstanding the adverse decision OF
the Circuit Court of Appeals for the
4th Circuit in the Chesapeake e.
Ohio case, it is believed that the proper
Interpretation Of the law requires that
the air brakes of all cars in every
train which have been equipped with
power brakes. as distinguished from
non-air cars, and which are associated
with cars having operative power
brakes, must be put in operative con-
dition and must be used by the engi-
neer Of the locomotive drawing the
train"
The decision referred to upheld the
Interpretation which the railroad COM
panies have placed Oh the commission
order of June 6, 1910. and therefore
the only lnfraction Of the law which
can be charged to the railroads is that
they have accepted the courts inter
probation of the order rather than the
construction which Mr.. Borland de-
sires to place upon it.
The statement with regard to the
use Of hand brakes for controlling
trains on mountain grades is equally
evasive and misleading. Very strong
arguments have been advanced to
prove that the use of hand brakes in
conjunction with air brakes on heavy
grades is preferable, from the stand
point of safety, to the use Of an
brakes alone, although the law on this
point is clear in requiring the use OF
power brakes. 1t hardly seems fair
that the railroads should be censured
for following practices which expert
ence has shown to be preferable to
those required by the statute

Finally, Berger attracted all the

personally as strong a candidate as
might have been secured.
But, nevertheless, it is not pleas
ant to think that there is a single

pro-German population, willing to

Our System to Blame
the Editor of The Tribune

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A great deal too much has been
made of Lloyd George or Clemenceau
failing to understand" Lloyd George
and Clemenceau quite understand
They know all about the Presidents
request for a Democratic Congress, and
all about the effect that request pro
duced. They also know how American
ambassadors are appointed and how
they are not appointed; but, knowing
all this. in what respect could they
fave acted differently?
Mr.. Wilson went to the peace confer
erce as President Of the United States,
duly elected and inaugurated. What
ever may have been the political shade
of Congress, he was still President of
the United States and had to be treated
as such by the other delegates. Would
you expect them to question his Gre
dentials? Should he have been told
that as he was "a leader who had lost
the support of the people for whom he
spoke" he was not fitted to represent
NIClH ! GNh tiic IuNSLlVll IL ~ an
swer it. The only thing for the peace
conference to do was to take Mr.. Viii
son at his word.
Lloyd George says We got the
league of nations through the House
of Commons, Unionists, Liberals, Co
altion. Independent Liberals, Labor
ties, Nationalists, in a single night.
This was the result of England being
represented at the conference by q
leader who had Pari; ment behind him.
If Lloyd George had failed to COM
mand majority in Parliament he
could lot under Great Britain form
of democratic government, have gone
70 the peace conference. If the Amerl-
can system Of government permits the
country TO be represented at a great
crisis in the worlds history by a
President who does not represent d
majority in Congress, the plamc must
be on that form Of government. For
that form of government the American
people are responsible.

Stealing Seuenueen Locomotives

The boldest attempt to rob the rail-
ways occurred several weeks ago. when
a scheme was laid to steal seventeen
locomotives and carry them into Poland.
The officials, however. were too sharp
for the thieves When the locomotives
reached a station near the Polish from
tier change OF engineers and brakemen
had to be made; and these were police
officials, who took into custody the gang
that was to continue with the locomo-
tves into Poland
With such food of thevery and
other crimes sweeping over the country
the courts and police are quite unable
to keep up with their duties. Complaints
of thefts are lodged with the prosecut-
ing attorneys. and they order lnvestiga-
tons made; and in due time the printed
form comes back: THE investigation in
the case of was without result 3"
But, as a matter of fact--so it is ad-
mitted in the press-no investigation at
all has been made in many of these
cases, for the simple reason that there
are not detectives enough in the ser.
vice to do the work But even so the
courts are overworked. Last year no
fewer than 1896 900 cases were
brought before the Prussian courts,
against 752,8OO in 1916.
