Short Eteadway and Car Crashes.

A three-car rear end collision oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon just be-
fore the rush hour on one of the
downtown streets of the city, in the
hurry to get ears to their western ter
minals for the heavy traffic of the
government offices. Several persons
were more or less seriously injured,
one of them perhaps MORALLY. This
speeding of the cars with short head
way has been common in the mid
afternoon for some time, and yester-
days accident was the inevitable con
sequence of laxity in pushing ahead
20 make schedules, with too narrow a
margin of safety. AS result of the
mix up yesterday the traffic was seri-
ously interrupted for Il long period
and the purpose Of haste in moving
the mparatively empty ears west
ward was defeated. This is case of
"more haste, less speed" A strict OBJ
servance of the Roadway rule should
be required by the companies for he
protection of car riders, as well as for
the sake of the maintenance of de-
pendable service on the lines.

Commissioner Gardiner Retires

Commissioner Gardeners resigna-
ton, long pending at the White House,
has been finally accepted, and he is
retiring from the District building,
with the regrets of the citizens. 1t
was hoped that Mr.. Gardiner would
reconsider his decision to retire from
office in order to resume the practice
of his profession, but having com
pleted the work for which he particu-
larly remained on duty he feels it
incumbent upon him to return to his
own occupation, and he will leave the
position, which he has filled with I'M
usual energy and devotion to the pub
lie interest, with the best wishes of
the citizens Of the capital for his good
fortune in the field of private en-

They are having

proper allowances. They are having
troubles of their own at home of a
somewhat similar character, and could
svmpathize with us. When next they
come we shall likely be in better
shane, and we'll buckled to our new
task.
These men and their fellows at
home will be among our competitors
for world trade. The competition is
going to be brisk-probably the brisk
est the world has ever known. They
are all good traders, the British par
ticularly. They will be at their best.
The wars losses have been colossal,
and must be repaired as rapidly as
possible. And trade is to turn the
trick so far as the money losses go.
And while the competition will be
brisk, it need not be either unfair
or unfriendly. Knowing what in the
way of skill and experience we are
"stacked up against we shall do our
best to prove worthy OF place IN
such brisk company. Our war losses
have been heavy, too, and must be
repaired as rapidly as possible. What
ever of the international trader there
may be in rs must be developed and
put at service. And 50 by making the
personal acquaintance Of our com
petitors through visits by them to
us and by visits by us to them the
rough edges of the problem should
disappear.

Trade and Trade Visitors.

The delegates from Great Britain,
France, Italy and Belgium who came
over to attend the international trade
conference, which recently held its
sessions at Atlantic City, and at the
close made a wide tour of observa-
ton in the country, have reached New
York and are sailing today for home.
Eugene Schneider, chairman of the
French economic mission, said to an
interviewer:

And observed the leading stars upon

And have heart and superintend

Decision and Action Required.

The country is bitterly disappointed
at the failure thus far to effec, the
resumption of coal mining and the set
Element of the dispute as to wages
and hours between the miners and
the operators. 1t was hoped when
the injunction order was issued at
Indianapolis that the strike would be
actually and not merely technically
called off. 1t was hoped that mining
operations would be resumed fully
and that the questions at issue would
be speedily settled The order has
been in effect disobeyed. The miners
are still out of the mines, coal IS not
being produced and the country's sup
ply is running dangerously low. Rep
fesentatives of the miners and opera
tors have been meeting for nearly two
weeks and have made NO progress.
They are deadlocked on the question
Of wages and the operators and the
government are at odds on the score
of prices, upon which will turn the
percentage of the burden of higher
wages which the public must bear.
The cabinet has been in session on the
subject and can come to no conclu-
sion.
This situation cannot continue in
definitely. 1t cannot continue long
without disaster. Already large in
dastrial interests are suffering through
lack of fuel, and the people them
selves are feeling the pinch of priva-
ton. In some cities business hours
are shortened to save coal. In Chi
csso street lights have been extin-
guished as a coal-saving measure and
crime is increasingly prevalent there
in consequence. Railroad traffic is
menaced with serious eurtailment, and
il relief is not had shortly the peoples
supplies will be affected by reduced
transportation facilities.

vance in wage at the mines there is
room for compromise. If the public
IL to bear all the cost of higher wages
the operators should not hesitate
longer. But the public should not
bear all that additional cost. T. has
been shown clearly that at the pre-
vailing coal prices the operators are
making heavy profits. It is believed
tAat they can afford to carry most
il not all Of the burden of higher
wages without increasing the selling
rates. The government has the power
to fx the prices under its wartime
authority, which fortunately still con-
tinues. 1t should act in this matter
promptly and bring about the resump-
ton Of coal mining, by further court
action or by administrative decision
and enforcement.
This country must not be further
naenseed with the disaster of a stop
page Of the coal supply because of
inability to agree upon wage scales and
price rates.

Diplomatic Posts to BE Filled.

The missions to Italy, to China,
Switzerland, Costa Rica, Salvador and
Siam are vacant, and it is expected
that appointments will be made soon
after Congress reassembes. All are
important posts, as diplomatic mat
tiers now present themselves.
Our relations with Italy are some
what strained as the result of the
Fiume affair They we're exceedingly
cordial until that arose. The cordial
ity should be restored; and the right
man sent to succeed Thomas Nelson
Page, who served well, should be of
great assistance in the attainment of
that end. Italy's new ambassador to
America has just arrived, and is an
experienced diplomat. We should
match him.
The man for the Chinese post should
likewise be man of high grade. lie
will be stationed in a part of the
world where a good deal will be 60
ing on of prime interest to this coun-
try. The new world order imposed by
the war will apply. nowhere more in
fteresting1y than in the east. Great
development is expected there; and
in China, where ever since the Boxer
outbreak was settled We have been
very popular, we are now more popu-
Tar than ever as the result of Ameri-
can sentiment respecting the Shan
tung controversy. A wide-awake
American should be stationed at
Picking.
Siam is a small country, but being
in the east has importance for US at
this time. At every post throughout
that whole section, indeed, our diplo-
matte business should be intrusted
to competent hands.
Costa Riea and Salvador are in a
quarter of the world which We hope
! to cultivate to its advantage and our
own more assiduously and successful
ly than hitherto. Commercially and
otherwise, our influence throughou out
both Central and South America should
be greater than that Of any other
foreign country; and such is our de-
sire. Hence the advisability of com
hitting our diplomatic affairs in all
the southern part of this hemisphere
to men we'll qualified for such work.
1t has been observed, and expressed
as compliment, that Americans "take
to" diplomacy quite as naturally as
to politics, and succeed in both fields
Nevertheless, there is great advan.
tage in training and experience; and

ever available for public service and
not in it, he should be requisitioned
so to say-should be called to the
civil colors and assigned where his
talents may be best employed.
! And so, with the proper care ex
ereised in choosing public servants TO,
! our domestic affairs, and the same
care taken in choosing men for oul
foreign affairs, our progress as ma
ton should be all that the most pa
triotic desire.
