MAKING TREASON EASY

THERE are federal laws on the statute
l. books to protect all the institutions of
the American Government from traitors
and seditionists. If there is an efficient
attorney general at Washington with a
department efficiently represented in all
parts of the country, there is little need
for "emergency laws" conceived and
passed by State Legislatures in emo
tional intervals and so closely drawn as
seriously to restrict the individual free
dom guaranteed by the constitution of
the United States.
An alarm clock in the office of the
United States district attorney in Pha-
delphia, for example, would be far more
valuable as a means to cure incipent
treason expressed in vagrant propa-
ganda hereabouts than all the solemn
provisions of a drastic "sedition bill"
such as the Legislature at Harrisburg
has been considering.
The supporters of the bill have been
wise in withdrawing it for radical
amendments. There is a question whether
any such law is necessary or desirable.
If seditionists are permitted to mask
furtive propaganda in the publications
of radica, political parties, the RESPONSE
bility lies with the federal authorities.
The offense is one which ought to be dealt
with by the national government. State
laws overlapping those of the federal
government can only lead to confusion.
Some Of the political propaganda being
issued in this city to incite ignorant
minds is frankly reasonable The United
States attorney generals Office is said to
be watching the situation"
Doctors at the port of New York, who
happened also to be federal officials, we're
watching" when an inbound vessel from
one of the European ports brought the
first cases of influenza. They watched
and did no more.
The administration of the attorney
generals office was lax under Mr..
Gregory. Mr.. Palmer. who is better
acquainted with our friend, the alien
enemy, has an opportunity to deal with
the nuisance of reasonable propaganda
in a manner that should reassure the
Legislatures at Harrisburg and else

A Ii those senators who desired to
advise the Peace Conference and
weren't permitted to do so are badly
needed in Paris at this hour. A crisis
has arrived in which, with a few words,
they could do much to insure the future
peace of the world.
Jim Smith, who used to be the sole
owner of the Democratic party in New
Jersey, and Jim Nugent, whom Mr.. Smith
regarded as the heir apparent to the
state, ought to be arplaned to Paris
without a moments delay. They, too,
could help to insure the peace of the
world
They could tell Lloyd George and
Clemenceau and Orlando some things
which Lloyd George and Clemenceau and
Orlando need to know. Mr.. Nugent and
Mr.. Smith know better than any men
alive that President Wilson doesn't bluff.
Like the senators who have fought
hardest against the present administra-
tion, they could tell the Peace Conference
that Mr.. Wilson, whether he is right or
wrong, isn't accustomed to starting
things that he doesn't intend to finish.

Dakota, they can get it by themselves il
the old political leaders, anxious to re-
tain their power, do not give it to them
first.
There has never been time when
the majority of the people in any state
or in any city were agreed for long on
anything which they did not get. Their
will may be frustrated for a year or two
by the Vaccinations of interested poiti-
cal leaders, but no political leader can
survive who habitually disregards popu-
lar sentiment. Therein lies the safety of
democracy.
If there ever was a government on
the face of the earth broad based on the
peoples will, it is the government of
America. The evil in Bolshevism lies in
its effort to base government on the will
Of class. In country where there are
no fixed social strata, where the employe
of today is the employer of tomorrow,
where the rich and the poor change
places from generation to generation. no
policy intended to fix rule in one group
even though it be a large one, will appeal
for long to the intelligence of the aver
age American citizen. So those who are
attempting to plant Bolshevism here are
trying to raise thistles on a fig tree The
European gratis will snot grow.

SIDNEY DREW

THE untimely death of Sidney Drew
l. comes as a personal pang to many
thousands of movie lovers. Mr.. Drew
an actor of distinguished ability and
grace on the spoken stage, brought
to the screen qualities which were new to
the drama of speeding shadows.
There was time when motion-picture
comedy was synonymous with slapstick
absurdity, in which so-called comic ef-
fects were produced mainly by unbeliev-
able physical contortions exaggerated by
speeding up the film.
Mr.. Drew and his wife, in their delicate
and delightful domestic comedies,
showed that true humor, of a gentler and
more wholesome sort, was not incom
patible with the exacting technique of
the photoplay. The whimsical charm of
their pictures made them favorites to
millions.
Mr.. Drew did as much as any actor to
show that true art can register" in the
movies. His facial pantomime was al
ways restrained, subtle and inimitable.
There will be curiously poignant feel
ing for those who loved him to see that
familiar shadow move across the screen,
even though the man himself has come
to the end of life's great reel. He glad
dened many hearts with his wholesome
tender fun. The vast audience that
meets every night in the darkened pic
turei houses will not forget him. "Here
lies one whose fame was writ in cellu,

WRONG WAY TO DO 1T

TT is perfectly obvious that the key
= note of the coming Victory Loan cam
paign should be joyous. The shadow Of
appalling tragedy hung over the pre-
vious bond-selling enterprise. There was
little evidence, even last fall, that the
financial success of the loan would mean
an immediate end of the slaughter.
But the curse is lifted now and the
money which the government wants is
to pay for the triumph of the right which
has been achieved. Vigor-plenty of it
should characterize the campaign. 1t
should, however, be cheerful energy,
lusty and good-humored.
Outside such a category fall the lurid
posters bearing the ominous inscription,
Beware Poison Cas-" and followed by
cryptic Interrogation point. The loan
committee confesses to knowing the pre-
else meaning of these placards, which
have appeared not only on walls and
fences but actually on the boarded-up
windows of some private houses.
Residents of the Rittenhouse Square
district had a little shock when they saw
these flaming signs yesterday. The
mental specter of Bolshevisni appeared
Butteven though that spirit can in this
instance be laid, the posters are not eve
gladdening.
Advertising that is alarming misses
fire. The display of these threatening
posters was not a good idea. Ingenuity
should delight, not disquiet, those to
whom the appeal is made.
