Mr.. Taft Disposes of Mr.. Knox
(NeW York w Orld,)

Mr.. Taft makes short shift of all
those opponents of d League Of Ma
lions who insist that the United
States cannot constitutionally be
bound by a treaty to make war.
Isn't it possible for the United
States to agree to make war and 20
agree by the treaty-malIing pOWer?''
he asks "WeIl. if it is not, she has
done it, She did it in the case of
Panama"
The precedent IS complete and per
feet. BY the treaty Of 1876 with New
Granada the United States guaranteed
the neutrality of the Isthmus of
Panama in order to prevent any inter
ruption of free transit from the At
lantic to the Pacific. In the language
of William H. Seward secretary of
state in Lncoln's ca binet. the pur-
pose Of the stipulation was to guar
antea the Isthmus gainst seizure or
invasion by a foreign power only"
which mean ,,ur and could mean
nothing else.
President Roosevelt eventually
construed the treaty to mean that the
United States had a right to use it's
military power to prevent Columbia
from s'1Dpressing a revolution in
Panama, and American forces were
employed to that end. In other
words, he turned against Columbia
treaty that guaranteed Columbia's
sovereignty against foreign invasion,
but that is neither here nor there as
affecting the cOnstitutionality of a
treaty binding the United States in
certain circumstances to go to war
The treaty of 1916 with New Ora
NADIA did exactly that, as Mr. Taft
says, and Philander G. Knox. who as
attorney general upheld even Mr..
RoOscVelts perversion Of the treaty,
is now insisting that no such power
can eNiS under the constitution of
the United States

Connecticut \ Devils Island.

(NcW Y Ork T1meS.)
Connecticut refuses to ratify. For
this deliberate turning aside from
the moral pathway, this sin against
light, there is only one penalty Sc
we're enough Let Connecticut be
solemnly proclaimed outcast by the
comfy Of drN-cleaned common
wealths; let her be formally and spe-
officially exempted from the opera
ton of the prohibition amendment.
Nay, more, make her a Devils Island
for the unregenerate Of the rest OF
the country: if any man kick against
the pricks, rebel against the en-
fOrcement of morality, let him be
shipped to Connecticut, there to end
his abandoned days in the company
of his own kind.

The PariOr BOISheNiI<i.
(\eW York Hera Id


The fact that the government in
tends to pay serious attention to the
light headed men and women who arc
posing as "parlor BOlsheviki" means
tidings OF great joy to the fun loving
element in tho comm unity. A public
roundup of the scatter. Drained pro-
fessors, notoriety seeking c!ergymen,
half baked women and, others who
think themselves a "menace to so
ciety'' would provide us with q wealth
Of wholesome amusement.
In the purleus Of Washington
Square and Greenwich Village these
"mena ces" are to be found in great
numbers and variety. The nightly
conversations in such resorts as the
Dirty Grape and the Fried Spinach
are usually edifNin@ and entertaining.
There us the hatIess young man who
would be more completely dressed if
he owned collar button, and who
pounds on the table as he injuries
hOarSely how long this sort of thing
is to be tolera ted even in a city owned
body and soul by Wall street. There
is the young woman in sandals and
with her hat pulled down over her
eyes who asserts that the whole East
China, Japan and India--is litter
ally seething with reVOlutiOn.' There
is the idle woman Of fashion, fawned
on and tiattcred by the fiercest enc
mics Of the capitalistic class who ever
borrowed two dollars. She will be wis
err and poorer by the time these low
ers of humanity get through with her.
The BolsheVil1i have long since
made their presence felt in parlors
contiguous to Fifth avenue. where
they make 4 profound impression by
waving long hair ana talking about
the French revolution and the ''vol-
caro- under the cftN's crust" It is
difficult to say exactly what punish
ment would best fl these foolish ones
for their vaporings, but it must not
be too severe. TO deprive them Of the
notoriety dearer to them than life
would be inConceiVably cruel.

civilian H. Taft's Copyrighted Edi-
tOrial in Philadelphia LedgorD
The great danger now in our ma
tiOnal politics is that those who OPP
pose needed laws to enforce the
am endme1t, or who wink at or SYM
pathize With violation of such laws
will create a constant political issue
on prohibition that will cloud and
confuse the settlement of other issues
quite as important as prohibition.
The security of self government lies
in the popular decision of clear-cut
issues. SO that an election shall indi-
cate clearly what the people want.
But if the liquor and a1ti-liQuOr
controversy is to thrust itself into ev-
cry discussion of great national meas
ur0s in which it has no relevancy,
popular elections will mean but little.

Newspapers End newspapermen are
sometimes accused of failure to prac-
tice what they preach, but this can
never be said about the people who
work on the newspapers in London,
England. This striking fact in con-
nection with recruiting was mentioned
in a recent speech of Sir Auckland
Geddes: OF 10000 men and boys en-
ployed by London newspaper offices,
5000 joined the colors and at the
moment of the armistice being signed
there were not 80 men fit for general
service in all the London newspaper
Offices. That was a record. said Sir
Auckland, which placed the press
ahead of every trade group in the
matter of recruiting.

Lower California.

GOu SVille COurier-JOurnaI)
When Florida was acquired it was
believed generally that it would pro-
duce some fish and some oranges and
that otherwise it would not amount to
a great deal. When Oregon was a
little known area on the other side Of
the Great Divide it was argued by
many persons in public life, and by
the press, that it was like the mule
which had but two faults, an animal
very hard to catch and not worth a
cuss after being caught. When the
United States acQuired the territory
included in the Louisiana Purchase it
was called Jefferson's worthless will
derness. The purchase price of 81 s.
100000 was regarded as so much
money thrown away. When there
was argument as to the requirement
of Hawaii the islands were said to
produce nothing but volcanoes and
leprosy. Alaska, at $1,000, 600. was
looked upon as terribly bad bargain
in real estate. Since it's acquisition a
little more than forty years go ii has
produced about forty times it's pur-
chase price. its development as a
productive territory hardly could be
called complete.
IIasy-chair surveys of the resources
Of Lower California probably are not
more accurate than similar surveys of
territory proposed for annexation by
purchase or otherwise were shown
by subsequent events to have been.
Arguments against the acquisition of
Lower California cannot be effective
if the main contention is hat the area
is of no value.

Tight Skirts Again.
Pittsburgh Leader.

Tight skirts worn by women passen-
gers have upset schedules on the
railroads.
The PENNSYLVANIA Railroad, with
scientific accuracy has found that
since women have begun wearing tight
skirts the average stopping time of q
train at d station is now seventeen
seconds longer than it was when the
skirts were short and roomy around
the bottom.
In reply to a complaint of the South
Jersey Commuters Association that
trains were not run on time the
management gave this information
and stated that unless styles in skirts
change very soon the running tim e
Of local trains must be heightened.

Things drift. Republicans who,
without caring to fight openly for pro-
crastination, would like to see an ex-
ira session, contribute to that end by
merely not being in a hurry. The
Democrats themselves seem to have
become ffected with a kind of fatal
ism about it. In q word there is no
real driver on the box, and the horses
slow down to a walk. BY contrast,
the extra session. with its problems Of

Canada'S' Wheat.
(TOrOntO Telegram


Canada'S leaders at Ottawa should
scrap political economy for another
twelve months at least.
A proposed guarantee of minimum
prices for Canada'S 1919 wheat crop
may be Objectionable and abhOrrent
to the learned bankers and financiers
who said in 1914:
international finance will never
permit war to break out and if war
does break out all the powers will go
bankrupt if the war lasts more than
three months"
If the gamblers get into an open
wheat market the consumer may pay
more than $2.23 per bushel for 1919
wheat
The Ottawa government might do
worse than, fix the American mini
mum as the price of Canada's 1919
wheat crop.
