A FLAW IN THE RESOLUTION

THE impression that the ratification of
L the treaty by three of the princi-
pal allied and associated powers and
Germany establishes a state of peace
between Germany and all the other ma
tions arrayed against her in the war is
prevalent in many quarters.
This view is recognized in the Lodge
resolution submitted at the hectic clos
ing session of the Senate on Wednesday.
According to the text, which was re-
ferred back to the foreign relations COM
mittee, Whereas, by the terms of the
treaty of Versailles, Germany is to be
at peace with all the nations engaged
in the war against her whenever three
governments designated therein have
ratified said treaty; now, therefore,
be it resolved by the Senate (the House
OF Representatives concurring) that the
said state ofswar between Germany and
the United States is hereby declared to
be at an end"
The only flaw in this resolution is its
complete misstatement of fact. Three of
our former allies cannot ratify the treaty
for the United States. They have no
power to establish a state of peace be-
tween ourselves and Germany. The
treaty explicitly declares that Germany
shall begin to fulfill certain obligations
when three of the principal powers have
deposited a record of their ratfications
and she herself has signed it. In that
sense the treaty comes into force on a
particular date "between the high con-
tracing powers who have ratified it."
"In all other respects" proclaims the
mooted document, "the treaty will enter
into force for each power on the date
of the deposit of it's ratification"
In other words, this country cannot
have its peace made for it by other
nations. That seems to be a wise ar
rangement, respectful of our national
initiative.
In considering the peace declaration
resolution the foreign relations commit
tee may perhaps find time to examine
the actual text of the peace treaty. There
it will find that as regards ratification
the rights of the United States and its
integrity as nation are acknowledged
in way which Mr.. Lodge seems to have
overlooked.

THE HIGH COST OF MAYoRING

.SN'T surprising that Mrs. Blanken-
s3urg, Mrs. Weaver and Mrs. Smith
ould be the first to offer valiant sup
port to the suggestion of an increase
in the. Mayors salary. Women know
better than men the harsh realities of
living costs. They have to make ends
meet and they have an unerring and
Instructive sense of the value of appear
ances. 1t is odd that the city has to be
reminded that its Mayors, because of its
stinginess, are in actual danger of hav-
ing to wear shabby clothes.
Mr.. Moore is one of the few men who
have entered the Mayors Office with little
beyond their salaries to depend upon.
A Mayor, as Mrs. Blankenburg has sug-
gested, must keep up appearances and
preserve careful regard for the social
conventionalities. The cleaning top hat
NOW staggering in cost, we are in
formed-and the taped cutaway are "trip
peries without which an ordinary citi-
zen may struggle along. A Mayor has
to have them He has to give enter
tainments and he has to travel occa-
sionally.
Even if the salary of the Office were
to be increased from $4,000 to $4,000
a year, no Mayor of Philadelphia will
have an easy time of it unless he hap
pens to have private means.

LIdIe Signs and overflows

As they came into spot OF sunshine
which fell through narrow vista In the,
,rees the younger and better dressed of
the two turned his eyes upward to see what
nart of the sky was then occupied by the
elorious orb, when Miss Meaks discovered
in his face what she thought 10 be the
familiar features of q long-lost friend. The
beautiful rhododendron bloom that em-
bossed her bosom now rose and fell with
a deep sigh that pushed forward the ele-
pantly rounded prospect behind IT. but
when his brow returned TO the shade of
his brim she doubted her impression and
saId In silent soliloquy: Impossible that
he who knows not my love should be here.
No more shall my heart leap and my lips
tremble to the deceitful refractlon of light
in woods like these. The warm palm l
once refused will never return, alas to
reclaim me from my folly.
"oh, God !" she cried, pardon the weak
ness Of woman" and burying her face in
his bosom, her lachrymal lakes overfowed
and anointed his garments with drops that
we're 10 him the myrrh OF the soul. "It is
pursuit" she said, "and not possession, that
man enjoys and now therefore the tender
regard you have for me Is ready TO be
cremated upon the pyre of my broken
spIrit and nothing but an urn OF ashes
left to it's memory"

and he is gravely concerned with its
ratification. II is evident to the most in
different that il cannot be ratified with
out some explanatory resolutions. If the
President seeks again to give orders to
the Senate, as the opposition senator's
assumed he did in the letter which
Senator Hitchcock read on Tuesday, he
will make grave mistake.
What is needed most of all just now is
u manifestation by the President of dis
position to meet the Senate halfway, to
make concessions, to consider the human
susceptibiities of men just as patriotic
and as able as he. He is not the whole
show, as he very we'll knows. No one
understands the constitutional functions
of the Senate better than he. The dead
lock has come because he has disregarded
these functions and sought to impose his
will upon ninety-sX able and patriotic
men.
Whether his will was right or wrong
in the abstract is not the question at issue
just.now. II may be that the treaty ought
to be ratified without the dotting of an
"i" or the crossing of "t." That is
beside the question today because condi-
tions have arisen under which such rati-
fication is impossible.
The news from Washington indicates
that there are at least seventy-six
senators who wish the treaty ratified. 1t
ought not to be beyond the powers of the
President and the leaders of these men
to find way TO bring this about within
a few days after the Senate reconvenes
week from Monday.

#of the most flourishing institutions of

y So when Philadelphia is asked to CON

work of education at Princeton it is
merely asked to do her share toward

& 30 doubt about it. Her annual budget
n has increased from $157 900 in 1895 to

A TENDER SPOT TOUCHED

A PROGRAM of increased taxes lacks
popular appeal. And so does mu-
nicipality unable to perform its functions
or even to pay it's legitimate bills.
Mayor Moore has a keen sense of
relative values and he is unafraid to ad-
socate an unpopular policy as an offset
to something much more distasteful that
is likely to result from blinking the facts.
His plain speaking to the members of
the new Council of twenty-one was a
recognition of the truth that the present
Mayors budget is not big enough to run
the city as it should be run.
Responsibility for the foreshadowed
cmbarrassments does not rest upon the
new Council. The Vare-controlled body
would naturally delight in the favor
which comes to any legislature which
keeps down the tax rate
Such a course makes for friends and
<1otes By the time the disastrous effects
that sort of demogogy is manifest
1s blame lodges on the new administra
ion, seldom on its alleged kindly and
considerate predecessor.
Mr.. Moore knows all about these per-
sistent legends. He is also acquainted
with the susceptibility of "job cowards."
That is what makes his expressed inten-
tion to reduce the ranks of officeholders
at City Hall, in case the old taxes can
not meet the municipal expenses, so
pointed. 1t bids fair, too, to be effective
and in the best interests of the COM
munity.
The veil over the old Ware machine
bluffs is becoming thinner and thinner.

cannot do this without larger endow-
ments they are making their plea to a
public that will receive their appeals
with greater confidence than at any other
time.
The Princeton graduates will undoubt-
edly contribute generously to the new
fund. But broad minded men who are
graduates of no college will doubtless
also invest their wealth in the insti-
tuition, confident that it will yield greater
returns for the country than if put in
railroad bonds.

MANY have given me songs,
A'A Others have given me power,
Joy like a cleaving sword,
Pain like rain sweet flower,
Vision of worlds unfound,
Dreams that burn in the breast.
With a smile in your quiet eyes
You give me--a rest
Friends have clasped my hand,
Lovers my lips have kissed,
Priests have lifted my soul
AS the incense rises in mist.
Prophets have called me like trumpets
Where the work of the world is done. We
You open the door of my heart
