Articles XXu-XXY.

Until this point the provisions of the
Covenant have dealt almost exclusive
ly with the organization of the League
and the prevention of war. Article
XXI and the three that follow are
concerned with improving conditions
in which the people of many c2un-
tries take or ought to take an interest.
German Colonies.
The first of these articles deals with
races hitherto ruled by Germany n
her allies and not yet qualified to gov
ern themselves. Its object is two-fold
First, to protect and assist peoples on
their way to complete independence;
to guard them from dangers, n
guide them while still inexperienced
in the use of popular government.
During that period they would be
likely to make mistakes which might
expose them to external and internal
perils. The second object is to pre-
vent selfish exploitation of backward
popular and natudal resources. These
that helped to win the war, and all
have q right and duty to medand that
colonies were Ton by all the nations
the native inhabitants shall not be
maltreated and hat one of the victors
shall not ~monopolize to the exclusion
of other countries n raw products
essential to the industries of the
world.
These things are properly placed
under the control of the League: and
if so the plan of mandataries acting
under contract with the League, and
rendering an annual report of their
stewardship to the Council, with a!
permanent commission to supervise
the administration, seems well devils
ed for the purpose. M nation need
accept a mandate unless it pleases,
but if it does SO it accepts the trust
under the conditions prescribed by
the League. The whole plan marks a
great step forward in the recognition
of the common responsibility of civil
lied nations for the weaker peoples of
the earth; in contrast with the prin-
ciple exploitation for the national ben
eft of those who can succeed in con
ouering and owning them, or who can
by purchase, bargain or force of arms
obtain a transfer of them from their
former masters. To establish the
principle, to provide for inspection
and publicity is a long advance and
may be expected to have its effect
upon the government of all native
races whether under the control of
the League or not.
International Responsibilities.
Aticle XIII carries the conceo-
ton of responsibility, instead of ex-
~ploitation, still farther, applying it to
the conditions of labor, the treatment
of all native races, @the white slave
trade, the traffic in opium and other
dangerous drugs, the trade in arms in
disorderly regions, fair commercial
opportunity, and the prevention of
disease. Everyone familiar with the
difficulty of regulating these things

ROOM TO GROW IN

Freehold and the surrounding territory will vote tomor-
row at a special election on the question of charging the bor-
ough's boundary lines so as to include a large part of the sur
rounding township. The county seat of Monmouth has been
growing so rapidly of recent years that it has been found nee
essary to expand. Settlements that have grown up outside
the borough, but which are a direct outgrowth Of the borough
and the interests of which are identical with the interests Of
the borough, are to be included within the borough proper,
provided the people entitled to vote so decide.
Freehold is doing what Perth Amboy and the surrounding
towns in Woodbridge township must consider doing at no great
distant date. Perth Amboy has already outgrown her pres
emit boundaries. The overflow is becoming more pronounced
every year. People who would like to live in Perth Amboy
are being forced into the suburban communities. Metuehen
has attracted many; Fords has been built up largely by Perth
Amboy people and today the tendency is toward Woodbridge
proper and Sewaren.
Owing to the congestion in the city, rents have gone up
TO a figure that is impossible for a great many people. Besides,
thousands would prefer a modest house with yard room for
bringing up children, to the flats which are now about the only
thing available in this city, and even they are at a premium.
The only solution is to extend the boundaries of the city
so as to include Woodbridge township. There is reason to be-
lieve that sentiment in the township is / becoming more and
more favorable to annexation to Perth Amboy. No longer can
the city tax rate be used as an argument against annexation
for the Woodbridge tax rate is even larger than Perth Amboys,
With so many Perth Amboyans living in the township and with
the interests Of both the city andtownship the same, there is
no reason why they should not get together and form the foun-
dalton for one great metropolis.
No adequate city plan could be drawn for Perth Amboy
without including Woodbridge township. A city plan is in
tended to provide for the growth of the place for the next fifty
years or more. Surely, all of Woodbridge will be a part Of
Perth Amboy by that time. As this adjoining territory is de-
veloped it should be built up along distinct lines worthy of a
great city.
1t is time now to start the agitation for extending Perth
Anboys boundaries so that when a special election is held
here, as is to be held in Freehold and surrounding territory to-
morrow, the people of both Perth Amboy and Woodbridge will
be able to see the advantages to both places in getting together.
Perth Amboy certainly-needs Woodbridge to grow in, and
woodbridge needs Perth Amboy for her future development.

BUGBEE In NUGENT

Is Bugbee the Nugent of the Republican party?
OF course, Bugbee is not to be considered in the same
class with Nugent as a practical politician or in the matter of
ability, but in the matter of principles the intimation has gone
forth that Bugbee and Nugent stand for practically the same
thing.
Nugent, In announcing himself a candidate for the CUB
ernatorial nomination on the Democratic ticket, places fore
most in his platform bis ani-prohibihon and anti stuff
rage planks He holds these two things to be paramount in the
coming campaign. He is against both and does not hesitate to
say so in the strongest terms.
Bugbee doesn't say anything much for himself, but has
swallowed the principles adopted at the recent convention
Of Republican clubs at a single gulp, although these stprin-
ciples' don't get the voters anywhere when it comes to know
ing exactly where the candidate stands. They are typical Of
the old time political convention and worthy of the highly
trained brain of former Governor Stokes.
Now, since Nugent has thrown his hat into the ring with
his definite stand against prohibition thereby making a direct
bid for the wet vote OF the state, former State Senator En-
erson L. Richards of Atlantic county, who was spokesman in
the legislature for Governor Edge and now holds a $4,000
annual sinecure as counsel for the New Jersey Bridge Commits
SION, declares that Bugbee is the only man liberal enough
cong the candidates for the Republican nomination to beat
Nugent, who, Richards processes to believe, will secure the
Democratic nomination.
In other words, Richards, who has been spokesman for
the Republican party before, and who comes from a decidedly
wet county, has elected Bugbee to carry the "wet'' banner
Of so-called liberalism" in the coming campaign. 1t doesn't
make much difference what else he stands for as long as he is
sufficiently liberal to suit the liquor interests and the wide
open communities such as Atlantic City.
hicnafdS Is tying BugDee up TO a dead issue and Bugbee,
apparently, has not the strength of character to shake it off for
although Richards statement was issued several days ago not
a word has come from him to show that he resents being COM
pared to Nugent in the coming political fight
Just what bearing a gubernatorial election will have on
the subject of prohibition when the federal mandate, ratified
by forty five of the forty eight states in the Union, will have
made prohibition the law, not only of a state, but of the whole
land, is hard to understand.
Nugent criticises his opponent, Senator Edward |. Ed
wards, because the latter has declared that he will observe the
law as he finds it. That is what any man who takes the oath as
governor swears to do, yet Nugent gives the public to under
stand that should he take the oath as governor he would defy
such laws as suited his fancy. Aad now Richards declares that
sBugbee will do the same as Nugent should Bugbee be elected.
And Bugbee, as usual, has nothing to say on the subject.

number of commissions of various

fore 1914 and the war has brought IN
among the Allies nan more to unity
the conduct of military action, and the
vast auxiliary supply services con-

be useful in peace as well as IN war
