French Goddess of.LIbsrty.

The Goddess OF Liberty was created
by the French convention In 1893. and
was enthrOned by a public ceremonial.
II Is not known who persOnated the
goddess on the occasion, but probably
she was dressed in the French tri'
color, red, white and blue, with cap
and flowing skirt of classic design. The
French liberty cap was red. the Ameri-
can is blue, with a border Of gilt stars
on white. The figure of Liberty on the
early American coins had loose hair
tied behind, a sort Of free and easy
gown, with low neck and short
sleeves and sandals without heels.

Everybody Looking Alive.

Not since the civil war have the peo-
pie of the country manifested SO keen
and earnest an interest in public ques-
tions as they are manifesting today.
All sections are aroused. All classes
are indulging in discussions. Men &C.
customed to public speaking are in re-
quest, while mon who have never
spoken in public before are speaking
with an ease and confidence astonish-
ing to themselves.

crowding was welcomed. While the
city has by no means returned to nor
NAL, conditions are better, and It may
be possible to restore the former sys-
tenn Of car routing without disadvan'
tage. That is for the commission, act
ing upon the advice Of the traffic man
ayers of the two roads, to determine.
The assertion that the Beeler sys-
tenn caused the companies to lose
money-the Washington Railway and
Electric Company particularly-is not
accompanied by specifications or ex-
plantations. The suggestion, however,
is that this system entails the opera
tion of light loaded cars over long
runs. The car sheets will readily prove
or disprove this allegation. 1t should
not be difficult to ascertain the fact.
The public will welcome any change
that gives itsmOre service. 1t will en-
dure any change that insures the con-
tinued operation Of the lines without
friction between the men and the COM
panies and without lessening the ac-
tual accommodations. 1t will not toll
crate any change that cuts off the serv-
ice, already inadequate, in order to
save money If more wages must be
paid to the men, as matter of justice
to them, the company must be en-
abled to provide it by an equitable ad-
vance i'll the fares, if it's present reve-
nues are not sufficient. In any case
the ears must carry the people with
the greatest degree of regularity and
speed and comfort that conditions per-

immigration.

Leading South American countries
are showing interest in the question of
immigration. 1t grows out of reports
from Europe that as one of the results
of the war the tide of emigration from
that quarter is likely to be directed
from North to South America.
The argument is this: Europeans
seeking new homes now will be inf1u-
enced largely by desire to escape the
burden of taxation the war has i'm
posed on Europe. Nearly the whole
continent is affected.
The United States is affected also.
Taxation here is heavy, and will con-
tinue so for years to come. The Eu-
ropean. therefore, jumping from the
frying pan at home will land in the
fire if he jumps in this direction.
The war did not affect South Amer
lea in this way. She made no heavy
outlays for army or navy equipment.
In taking sides she did not find it nee
iessary, or engage herself, to send forces
to the scene of conflict. As conse-
quence, she contracted no war debt,
and her tax-gatherers are not gather
ing war taxes. Hence, the European
running away from war taxes will be
safe if he runs to South America.
There lies his haven Of rest and Sc
curity.
The South Americans are thinking
this over. Not without appreciation Of
the fact that they need immigration to
help develop their rich and largely un-
developed resources, they are admon
ished that at time like this, when
so much is in flux. it would be we'll
to look carefully to their gates, and
provide against the admission of un-
desirables.
We are considering the substance of
the same proposition. Whether the
tide of immigration continues strong,
as in the past, or slackens, as a result
of the war, we are admonished as part
of our war experience to look we'll to
our gates in the future, and provide
against an abuse Of our hospitality; to
revise our immigration laws 50 as to
make sure Of keeping all undesirables
out.
It is mere guess as yet as to how
the masses in Europe will be influ-
enced by the war in the matter Of
their future. They may not in large
numbers make change of base, but
decide to remain where they are, and
help clear away wrecks, and rebuild,
| this time on firmer foundations. The
note of patriotism will be sounded IN
their ears, and they told that in future
opportunities for individual advance
ment will give them all the elbow
room they can reasonably desire. or
reasonably hope to find elsewhere.

Car Wages and Beeler System.

In the presentation of demands for
betterments the brotherhood operatives
Of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio. Company declare that the aban-
dohment of certain features of the So
called Beeler system of operation is
necessary to- enable the men to make
profitable runs and to enable the COM
f5ny to pay the additional wages
a6ked.
1T is claimed by these representa-
tiyes of the operatives that the Beeler
system has cost and is costing the
company an amount of money in need
less expenditure sufficient to pay the
increases now sought. The company
itself should be able to testify on that
point. The matter will be laid before
the utilities commission, which will
doubtless hear both sides before de.
eisi0n.
The Beeler system was adopted as an
Emergency means Of moving the cars
more speedily over the lines and of
carrying the traffic more directly to
destination points. The principal fea'
ture was the rerouting Of cars, which
changed the running lines and sehed
iiles on practically every line. The
routes were thereby complicated.
Whether this change worked well o,
III is a. matter upon which only tech
aical testimony is competent. The
public cannot answer, though many
portions of the public may have beer
nccommo modated or disaccommodated by
the alterations of routes.

Is, shortly after its return from
France. This announcement, MADE yes
sterday, conforms with the suggestion
: made by The Star some days ago and
warmly indorsed by the ehairmen OF the
Senate and House committees on mill
tary affairs.
1t is especially gratifying that ar
rangements will be so made for this
parade in Washington, to serve as a
formal marking of the close of hos
,tilities and the accomplishment OF VIC
tory, that Gen. Pershing, commander
in-chief of the American forces i'll Eu-
~Iope. will be present and will partici-
pate. Thus the review Will be IN the
nature of a tribute both to the men
who so gallantly upheld the American
prestige on the field of battle and to
the officer who commanded the Ameri-
can Army throughout the campaign.
Washington will be afforded by this
review spectacle such as it has not
Known since the grand review which
marked the close of the civil war. An
entire division, comprising close upon
10000 men, with full field equipment,
artillery trains and all the accouter-
ment of battle, will march through the
tstreets of the capital. 1t is fitting that
the citizens of the District pay an es-
,pecial tribute to these heroes OF the
saghf and to their distinguished COM
mander in chief.
There is time to accomplish this.
An organization of citizens is readily
formed. Some form of memorial can
he provided, a triumphal arch of a
temporary character at salient point
ON the line, for example. The cost can
be readily betrayed by popular sub
scription. Inasmuch as this parade
will be the closing ceremony Of the
war work, it is fitting that the people
of the capital join heartily in an ac-
tnowledgment of the services OF the
fexulars and their leader.
The 1st Division most appropriately
comes as the rear guard, so to speak,
of the e1peditionary force, to be ac-
corded signal honors in review. 1t
was the first to go overseas, the first
to fight and the last of the combat di-
visions to return. 1t has participated
