ANOTHER CABINET RESIGNATION

From the way in which the mem
bers of the presidents cabinet are re-
signing. 1t Is a question how many
will be left upon the completion of
his term OF Office. Inasmuch as the
matter had been discussed before he
left for Europe, it can hardly be said
that the action of Attorney General
Gregory in giving notice that he want
cd to be relieved OF his responsible
ties March fourth came as sur
prise TO President Wilson at this time
INT IL is quite evident, If we are to
judge by his letter of acceptance that
the resignation will remove a mem
Der Of the cabinet upon whom he has
placed great dependence.
For four of the six years in which
Mr.. Gregory has been connected with
administration affairs he has been q
member of the cabinet, and during
that time he has been called upon to
handle many big and difficult prob
lens. 1t has been a period when the
holding of a cabinet position was not
al honor and in giving the reasons
for the laying down of the work next
March Mr.. Gregory indicates as much
when he attributes it TO the condition
OF his health as we'll as for pecuniary
reasons. Whether there is anything
else back of it will develop as time
goes along
But with the end OF the war it is
cutie apparent that the Office of at
torney general is going to be a busy
one. There are many matters whlrl
must be handled by it. There are
MANY important legal questions whicl
4rc going to arise and not little lit
sl,ion which must be taken mp. 1
is therefore going to call for a sue
.cssor who will measure up to TIKI
| task. and if we are to Judge from pre-.
! iors acts Of the president it will b.
qualifications rather than the sectio,
nr he country from which he cbme
| tAgt viii govern the selection of III,
successor.

LUXEM BURG.

By the action OF the people in the
grand duchy OF Luxemburg in pro-
claiming a republic a decided change
in the government Of that little coun-
.ry is forecasted. There has been
great discomfort there for A long time.
The people thoroughly resent the man
rer in which their rights were disre-
garded by Germany at the opening of
the war in using their territory as a
means OF getting into Belgium and
France and by forcing them to share
much the same sort Of hardships that
the Belgians did.
In the beginning Grand Duchess
Marie manifested the same sort Of
opposition but as things went along
Ter resentment cooled. she began to
overlook the injustices and at the con-
ciusion had been fully won over to

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Old Ace Pensions.

Mr.. Editor-The onward and the
forward trend of civilization is bring
ing to the forefront the obligation of
the public toward those who by rea-
son of age arc no longer able to sup
port themselves. Such an obligation
cannot reasonably or eonseientiously
be set aside. But for fear of a harsh
inquiry as to circumstances or the
semblance of favoritism in the dispos-
al Of a pension fund many deery
against any attempt ito relieve by
state or nation the aged who are desti-
tute or needy. And so rather than re-
sort to an embarrassing investigation
or be guilty of an unjust discrim-
nation between equally worthy appli-
cants they would leave them all to
be cared for by relatives or the char
itably disposed. But such dilemma
can be overcome by o universal pen
sion system allowing the liberty of re-
linquishment upon the part of those
mt neAdY or only nartiallY so and all
