HONESTY IN WAR CHARITY.
One Surety Company Bonded $40, 900
Workers without Loss.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN---Sir. The
honesty with which leading American
war charities have been conducted is, I
think, strikingly and interest inGly shown
ry this ooanpanys experience.
During the last eighteen months the
National Surety Company has bonded
100000 workers Of leading war charities
throughout the country. at a total risk
OF S47.550,o00. In no case has this huge
war charity fidelity risk resulted in loss
TO our company.
This experience was fully anticipated
by the company because of the patriotic
character OF men and women engaged
in the work and an unusually low rate
OF premium was therefore required. prac-
tcally only enough to cover the cost of
handling the details
In one instance officials OF a New
York bazaar embezsled: but although
they were indicted their defalcat!on was
made good from other sources, and our
company was not called on to pay the
indemnity.
The above general experience may also
be said 10 include and represent our
company's experience with peace charity
workers, except as to professional sub
scription solicitors who are paid on a
commission basis and who are regarded
as such questionable risks that we
hesitate to bond them without careful
investigation. Howard ABRAHAxs,
Vice President National Surety Com

at the Peace Conference.

In his recent visit to the United
States Premier WILLIAM NJ. HUGHES
spoke very freely upon the position of
Australia in the war and Of the prob.
lens that the great Commonwealth
would be compelled to meet on the
termination of hostllities. With equal
frankness he has just laid before the
Congress Of Paris the Australian aims
and desires. These are stated as the
demands of IAN autonomous nation"
recognition which, the Premier says,
Australia deserves and which she won
on the fields of France.
Premier HUGHES insists In the first
place that Australia Is entitled to an
indemnity, which Germany should pay
to the utmost Of her ability. He
bases this demand upon the losses
which his country has suffered and
upon the fact that In clothing and
equippinG her troops Australia has
spent 81 800 100000. This war debt to
a new nation of only 100000 inhabi-
tants he considers serious handicap
to future progress and development.
He likewise insists that Australia
shall retain the Islands of New Gui-
nea, which the Australians took from
Germany early in the war.
In this demand che Premier states
the policy which Australia and New
Zealand will undoubtedly declare.
This policy includes the adoption
of a doctrine similar to the Monroe
Doctrine for the East. The islands
Of New Guinea are less than 100
miles from the northern coast of
Australia; they present possibilities
for naval bases and for submarine
boat stations. and In the hands Of an
unfriendly Power they would consti-
tute n menace to Australia. New
Zealand will make the same claims
regarding the Pacific islands which
her troops occupied. The insistence
with which both of these demands
have been made and the evident de-
termination Of Australia and New
Zealand to rid themselves of German
influences in the Pacific form grounds
for the recent British statement that
the fate of the German colonies rests
not with Great Britain, but with her
oversee dominiOns.
In declaring for "white Austria

ter which has long concerned Aus

according to which the candidate sue
cessful on the face Of the returns Is

Mr.. NEwBERRY's conduct In this
matter Is exactly In line with bis con-
duct In the campaign. Never did

than did the Senatorship from Michi-
gan seek Mr.. NEwBERRY. 1t is crafty

OFFICERS WANT TO KNOW
Cause Of the Hesitation About Sign

To THE EplroR OF THE SuN--Sr: Your

United States Army OF those In France
was very interesting. as we'll as instruc-
tive and bore out a letter I received the
next day from my brother-in-law In
france, now near Toul. in which he
said that the officers there received a
telegram asking them what they de-
sired namely, commissions in the Regu-
lar Army or separation and commits
sions in the officers Reserve Corps or
full separation from the service.
These officers nearly all chose full
separation, because they could not get
any information as TO the possible out
crme Of the result OF signing under the
first two propositions
This is not right. The army officers
who send forth such requests must re-
member they are dealing with gentle
men whose quality OF brain force is as
good as theirs men who have given up
good places and are entitled to know
what goes with the commissions In the
Regular Army or In the Officers Re-
serve Corps, our men at the front who
are officers are not like the rank and
Ale OF the old style OF soldiers. as they
are volunteers who have won their COM
missions through ability and who have
a standing in their respective communi-
ties. and although they do not all come
from Missouri. still they want TO be
shown"
No; the army officials In Washington
will never wake up TO the fact that they
are now dealing with men who must
know what the effect will be OF signing
UP with Uncle Sam, We will never get
anywhere unless We explain what Is
to be handed out to the officers by
Uncle Sam when they sign up.
There is lot OF splendid material in
France for fine officers In the Regular
Army. and 1t would better be awaited
OF now. l am afraid the army officials
still want officers from West Point.

Hichigan's Senatorial Contest,

On the face OF the election returns
TRUMAN III. NEwBERRY, Republican,
was elected a Senator OF the United
States on November 8, to succeed
WILLIAM A. SMITH Of Michigan,
whose term expires March 3. Mr..
NEwBERRY defeated HENRY FORD, who
ran on the Democratic ticket
Mr.. FORD is contrasting Mr.. New.
BERRY's victory, alleging various ir-
regularlties In the election, which was
exceptionally hard fought.
The present Senate Committee on
Privileges and Elections has given
heed to Mr.. FoRD's contest and the
Senate Is about to impound the
ballots.
Mr.. NEwBERRYs term does not
begin until the Sixty-hfth Congress
expires. The seat under discussion Is
in the Sixty-sixth Congress, which ID
not yet in existence. But 1t has been
alleged that should the inquiry be
delayed the evidence might be de-
stroyed and the development Of the
truth thus be made impossible. Con-
sequently the Senate is acting through
i.s officers, although many members
question its present authority to pass
on the cHse.
This unusual situation is the result
OF the common desire Of Mr.. FORD and
Mr.. NEwBERRY to get at all the facts
IN the case. Mr.. NEwBnRY, whose
campaign was unusual in that 1t did

Interpreting Germany's Election.

To interpret correctly the results OF
the general election held yesterday to
choose delegates to the German Con.
stituent Assembly 1t is necessary t.
bear in mind the fact that the voters
of the new Teutonic democracy, in
stead of being divided as American
electors are into two great parties
give their adherence to numerous
smaller parties, With us the minor
political organizations seldom attain
the dignity Of national importance
the country is carried by the Republl.
cans or by the Democrats, and the
simple statement that Republicans or
Democrats have succeeded at the polls
tells the whole story.
In Germany the case Is different.
There the electors have chosen to
nf1liate with Il comparatively large
number of party organizations, some
Of which so closely resemble others
in their principles that it is extremely
di6icult for any except diligent stu
the significance Of their differences.
The SUN printed yesterday q despatch
from The Hague, quoting Berlin re-
port which discussed the elections In
Bavaria, in which it was declared that
Premier EIsNER's party was totally
defeated" and which made manifest
the possibility of confusion:
"It is true the Centre. with fifty-eight
seats. stands at the head OF the Depu-
ties. but Socialists may regard the Peas
ant League seats as allies OF their fifty.
ono Deputies.
Tho twenty-five seats OF the Bour-
gsois Democrats insure a strong Left
majority.
THE Right parties 70 far have won
sixty-two seats and the Left parties
ninety-three,
"The twenty-four Deputies still TO be
elected in the occupied territory of the
Palat!nate cannot produce a Right ma
jority.
Elf the Peasant League Is counted as
Socialist there are Professionally seventy
one Socialists"
This partisan division Of represen-
tativeS makes necessary the arrange
ment of working agreements between
various parties arrived at by compro-
mise and involving reciprocal cOnces-
Sions in the actual conduct OF legis-
lative business. Such combinations
are, Of course, subject to frequent
readjustment and sometimes are vio-
lently disrupted Their maintenance
Is one Of the heavy tasks OF the pollti.
cal leaders.
What hrs been conspicuous In the
elections held previous to yesterday
in Germany is the numerical inferior
ity of the advocates Of Bolshevism.
Despite the uproar they have been
able to make they have been consist
emily outvoted by the less radical
forces in the country, a fact which
gives ground for strong hope that
yesterdays balloting may have pro.
duced victory for the sane, demo-
cratic masses Of the population.

Arizona: . Prose Poem.

"Only n facile pen, and not this
dull one, may be dipped deep enough
into the ink Of temerity to attempt
description of Arizona" says the
over modest junior Senator from
that State, the Hon. HENRY FOUNTAIN
AsHCRsT. Well, we are not sure
about that. He dips pretty deep and
drips beautifully. Could the inkwell
Of most temcrity supply colors more
lovely. we ask, than these?
The rich purple tones in the distant
hills, the pearl gray touches, the deep
translucent azures In the arching heav-
ems. make UP myriad glints OF light and
colors."

what may he seen as the traveller
lifts his ravished eyes for u moment
from Caterer HARvEY's excellent food
and glances out Of the dining car
window, viewing Arizona as a whole,
so TO say. 1t is when the Senator
reduces the size Of his canvas. when
he paints intimate specifications, that
we find him most alluring. Here is
the Grand Canyon of the Colorado
as the painter reveals it before the
swimming vision: The colonnades,
pyramids. fluted pilasterS, swelling
domes, mosques, minarets, inverted
temples. bold escarpments, sheer
cliffs and isolated mesas within that
wondrous canyon where tumhles and
rolls and hollis the forbidding Colo
RADIO River" No more tumbling.
rolling and boiling than the splendid
vocabulary of the Senator.
And then there is the subject OF
health, about which most Of us talk
dourly and without art. But the
Senator makes health talk sweeter
by far than a prose poem. Consider
this. and as soon as Director-General
HINES restores the two and half
cent fare rate with stopover priyi-
leges buy ticket to Arizona, be
cause ut Is drcamful tranquility
which soothes the throbbing nerve OF
pain. She Arizona, OF course blows
bracing, healing air that reddens
the bloodless lip and paints the rose
upon the invalid's pallid cheek"
We care not what the schoolmen
may say; you'll seldom find language

regulations regarding immigration,
the problem would appear to be one
that Australia herself must settle.
The naval policy of Australia,
which has been matter Of no small
concern to the Commonwealth, will
apparently remain much the snme as
In the past. Australia has coast line
Of 1900 miles, and its defence would
entail great expense to n new ma

the Australian coast has devolved
upon the British Eastern Heet. 1t will
evidently continue so In the future:
There Is a suggestion of this In Pre-

Its First Site In Fourth Avenue Or

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN--str: In

house was established over nifty years

about two doors north OF Thirteenth

OF Wallacks Theatre.
1t was owned by George F. Browne,
an English actor OF small parts at Wal
