THE RETURN OF THE PEACE
ENJOYS.

n n NITED States peace ENJOYS have
IL returned home from Paris. There
was nothing else left for them to do.
Having refused to ratify the peace
treaty the senate left the ENJOYS vir-
tually stranded in France. They were
without power and without rank. They
were no longer the designated repre-
sentatives Of the United States. 81
lently they landed at New York and
as silently departed for their respec-
tive destinations. 1t is likely the coun-
try will hear more Of them in the event
the senate again takes up the treaty
and the foreign relations committee
wants additional information.
There is something pathetic about
the return of these peace ENJOYS. They
left the United States confident that
when their task abroad was over their
efforts would be approved by congress,
peace would be signed and the league
of nations a reality. Instead, they re-
turn with the task they set out to ac-
complish far from completed and even
with greater possibilities that the
treaty may not be negotiated at all.

THE HEIRS OF MARS,

TPRoM the popular American point
II of view the great victories Of the
war were the offensives beginning at
Chateau Thierry and st. Mihiel; from
the medical viewpoint the greatest tri-
umph was the defeat of germ and
vermin- borne diseases--epidemics To
date not single one Of these diseases
has got foothold on our shores.
Typhus, the great scourge of previous
wars, has been absolutely conquered
in this war by systematic NEGOTIATIONS.
So great were the improvements
made during this war in sanitary de-
vices--water filters, sewage systems,
ice boxes, fly traps, incinerators and
what not-that those used even in the
Spanish American war look clumsy
and primitive by comparison. A way
of controlling completely the vermin
in laundries and ry-cleaning estab-
iishments, a thing unknown before, was
discovered. The influenza epidemic
was kept under control by wholly new
devices for isolating each soldier at
night. The very architecture Of bar
racks and buildings Of all kinds has

lday-Page). We have always been in
ward publicity. We have been puz-
xled by open covenants openly ar
rived at" and other phrases as con-
trasted with Wilsonian practices. Mr..
Baker explains everything. In the
matter Of publicity, Woodrow Wilson
Is not an addict. He can take 1t or he
can let It alone. To him publicity is
not q beverage to be used unsparingly
but . stimulant for special emergen-
cies. To be sure, Mr.. Wilson keeps
q generous supply Of publicity on
hand, but 1t is all in the cellar under
lock and key.
In Mr.. Bakers book. for instance
we lind IL recorded that the president
| was seriously annoyed at one stage
of the proceedings In Paris because
certain newspapers published complete
| accounts Of the controversy between
Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Hughes of Austria
liza, and espoused the position Of the
Australian.
"Mr. Wilson," writes Baker, had &c
protest against these outside attacks
and he did 90 automatically but posi-
lively by declaring that II they con-
tinued ne would publish exactly what
| happened. At once the attacks in the
French press ceased"
Here We have q typical case OF the
presidents use Of publicity. A crisis
arises and away darts Mr.. Wilson ia

crow excited and imagine that there
10 going to be q perfect orgy Of free
speech and truth telling. Back comes
Mr.. Wilson with a single bottle. He

THE DANGEROUS YEARS OF MAN

Champion Dempsey win never again be

met Willard. At age "a he passed his
crest. On tho same day DIR. Henry
Dwight Chaplin of the state RECONSTRUCT
tion commissions committee on public
health declared mans dangerous age
period to lie between 10 and IS years:
The case with Dempsey IL that Of re-
action, physical and psychological, fol-
lowing the lapse from training and the
frequent tension of the fight into a life
of ease. OF satisfied aspirations, of go
ing to battle only when he feels like
it. AS to the Chaplin pronunciamento.
1t proves to be less general in the
analysis than in the headlines. It IL
fresh rendering of the now familiar
proposition that in the matter Of long
evity among men at large the city has
the advantage Of the truly rural re-
gion.
DIR. Chaplin finds as a result of his
official inquiries that whereas the
death rate reaches its lowest point in
developed cities, 1t attains its highest
mark in isolated and sparsely popu-
lated communities. 1t Is in rural dis
tricts that the death tendency of men
increases in the middle-age years.

body with which the senate must deal

effort will be made to get this docu-
ment acted upon. Millions of people
the world over will carefully watch the
actions Of the members OF the upper
house and mentally register the way in
which their energies are directed. This
will be particularly true OF the voters
In the United States. They want the

SING SERIOUS CHARGES.

~ ENSATIONS are not wanted al
M washington and the latest Of these
4S.-les in the announcement that Ad-
,miral Sims had declined medal fol-
distinguished service during the wal
from Secretary Daniels. The grounds
for the refusal was that Secretary
Daniels has used favoritism in placing
the coveted medals. A congressional
Investigation is now under way to de-
termins the truth of the charges and
70 place the responsibility.
In reply to Secretary Daniels Offer
OF the service medal Admira. Sims
said:
"The department has been
pleased to award me distin-
guished service medal as an
expression of its appreciation OF
the success of the forces under my
command, but since the success OF
the forces abroad was chiefly due
to the loyal and efficient service of
the officers recommended for dis
tinction-and to them belongs the
credit am necessarily placed in
a position which renders 1t impos-
sible for me to accept this award
under the conditions now exist
ing.
This becomes my duty because
this list (the one finally Issued by
Daniels for war decorations) con-
tains a number of instances of in
Justice to distinguished officers, the
effect of which, upon the morale OF
service, can not fall to be very
detrimental.
1.-The injustice lies not in the
number Of awards made, but in the
fact that the awards as issued to
officers in a number of instances
are not in accord with the relative
merit Of the service performed by
them as indicated by my recon-
mendations."
This Is rather serious charge. Ad
miral Sims plainly infers there wa
favoritism shown and that officers VIII
were not entitled to medals have bee
recommended for them while other
who won the right to this distinction
are denied the honor. The secretar.
Of the navy stoutly defends the manne
in which the awards were made ant
promises a full and complete statemen
which will be submitted to congress
