From the New York Times.
 1T HOPE springs eternal in the breast II1l of the vets, but it has mighty lit S S tie nourishment to feed on. If the galleries of the House could be for bidden to visitors and secret balloting provided for, a majority might be found for moderation and common sense and the reapeal or modification of the war time prohibition act, or. at least, for the permitted sale of light wine and beer. But up in the galleries sit the prohibition bosses watching their thralls on the floor If member wishes to deviate into federation and intelligence he dares not do it. The memorable dic- tators of his vote are keeping tab on him It Is an old story. Still. the hearts of the faithful vets hold out, as. there is reason to believe, before long their arid tongues will.
 In a House so cowed the assertions made by MT. Gallivan of Boston, some time famous college baseball player who has not yet lost the heat and fury of the field, seem particularly regrettable. He said that there are members who are not as dry as their statements on this floor might indicate, and in their homes is liquor enough to last them 20 years" "Name then!' Name them! /, beloved forthwith many virtuous

thnoats. The exhibition of virtue was none the less affecting because the exhibitors knew perfectly well that, as good fellow and a gentleman, Mir. Gallivan would not name anybody. He eontented himself with an ironical invitation to the provident hoarders of barrels and demijohns, cases and bottles, to put into the Congressional Record Statements of how much liquor they have in their magazines and reservoirs of strong water.
 MT. Gallivan knows perfectly well that there are prohibitionists in and out Of politics so unselfsh that they seek to do good to others and not to share in it themselves. Besides, in it's early days Washington was not the most healthful of cities. Its climate is trying at cer- tain seasons of the year. For medical let alone other good and sufficient, req sons. a thoughtful representative may well fortify his castle with drink. Then. even a representative is human UT course. there are genuine drys enougs in the House; precisians who would not allow a bottle of Jamaica ginger or ''hah tonic, in their impeccable homes. The sociologists will be attracted or repelled less by the moral than the statistical enlightenment which MT. Gallivan seeks. For instance, how much liquor would last A wet dry 20 years?

Permanent Rank of
 General and Admiral

ID RESIDENT WILSON has sent a 0 message to Congress recom- mending that the permanent rank of general in the regular army be given to John J. Pershing and Peyton c. March, and that permanent rank of admiral in the navy be given to William s. Benson and William s. Sims. He asks that the law be so ex- pressed that General Pershing will have presence in the army.
 It may be taken for granted that these recommendations will be ac- cepted and acted upon accordingly. Public sentiment demands such action. The honor to our distinguished war heroes of high command will be all the greater by having their names inserted in the bill; but after they are retired a general law should be passed creating the rank of general for the chief of staff of the regular army and the rank of admiral for al least one officer of the navy.
 The policy of Congress has beer niggardly with army and navy ranks As rule major generals and rear ad mirals have been the highest. No only should there be a general ant an admiral in the regular establish ment in time of peace, but at leas two lieutenant generals and two vic admirals as well.

LUKE M'LUKE SAYS

One nice thing about a wife is that you can get her to believe anything that she wants to believe.
 A man will lie around the shouse all day Sunday and eat like a hog, and then blame his wife because he feels badly on Monday. Exery time you notice a horse that is attached to junk wagon you wond- CT why he wasn't sold with the last wagon load.
 Every girl knows that she isn't going to have an audience in the evening un- less she puts on a street parade in the afternoon
 Some men are so busy fixing the get a job shoveling the snow and so busy sharpening the lawn mower in summer that they can't get job cut ting grass.
 Many a modern mother will spend the afternoon playing penny ante or bridge and lose three or four bucks and then come home and slap Willie all over the front sidewalk because she catches him playing marbles for keeps.
 And when mother says that she ex- poets her son to do better than his father did, she says it in way to infer that at that she isn't expecting such a lot.
 A man doesn't mean reasonable when he says "be reasonable" He means agreeable. They tell us that buzzards are get ting scarce. We hope that the buzz l gard does not become so rare that he l is valuable. If he does the women will wear buzzards on their hats. | And man seldom watches the clock for the purpose of ascertaining how much work he can do before quitting time.

WRITER'S AND THE WAR rom the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 The war has been won. But present indications are that magazine readers will be compelled to fight it over again every week or month for the next few years. Authors have either been too busy celebrating peace since the arrni- stice to do any work or had too large supply of stories and articles on hand when hostilities ended At any rate the old-fashioned love or adven- ture story is the exception nowadays and relatively few articles are being published which are not on the war or subjects akin to it.
 Many of these war articles have special value because of their relation to reconstruction needs at home and abroad. Fiction writers, however. wouka increase their popularity by letting the horrors of war have a well earned rest.
 Magazine editors are overburdened reading contributions of this kind. Hundreds of well-written stories which would otherwise find welcome mar ket, are returned to authors. because they are war stories or their plots hinge on the war conditions. And as a con- sequence there is a dearth of accept able fiction available for publication
 It would afford much relief to the reading public were writers to keep this fact in mind.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-07-19
JJ-BOAT RETROSPECT

Holland and simon Lake. It was large ly the U-boat that brought America into the war. It is therefore especially gratifying that defeat came to Herr Commander chiefly through two death dealing inventions-the hydrophone and the depth bomb-both of which were largely the work of American invent ors The one made it, possible to de- tect the presence of the U-beat miles away and to determine accurately it's location and the direction in which it was going. The other, when once the sensitive undersea ears had done their work. went down after the submarine to put an end forever to its nefarious activities.
 Neither the details of these two wonderful inventions nor the names of those who devised them may yet be made public. In good time, how ever, homage will be done to the men who relieved the world of the under sea terror. In the meanwhile America may feel just pride in the assurance that the inventive genius of her sons was so instrumental in bringing de- feat to the German undersea fleet.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-07-19

From the New York Evening Sun
 TF IGURES which recently appeared IH in Berlin relative to submarine S losses during the war make in teresting reading No less than l7S u- boats were sunk by the allied fleets, while fourteen more were destroyed by their own crews and seven put into neutral ports and were interned. No wonder the Germans came to LOOK upon the sub ubmarine as death trap, no wonder their sailors mutinied rather than serve in them; no wonder the ef- fort to deplete the tonnage of the world proved unavailing!
 Tho submarine is now discredfted weapon. Not only is the sentiment of the world opposed to it's use because of the inhumanities which have be- come associated with 1t, but even its efficiency has not stood the test.
