THE SUPREME COUNCIL

"HE Supreme Council at Paris
appears to be anything but su-
preme. Who the representative
of the United States in that council
may be has not been officially made
known, but it is reported to be dear
old General Bliss, who apparently
submitted to the demand that an
American naval contingent should
undertake to oppose D'Annunzio's
program in Fiume.
The Supreme Council was sup
posed to have as it's chief function
something of a guardianship over
the boundaries and territorial in
tegrity of the erstwhile European
belligerents until the Peace Treaty
came into effect, and it was eX-
pected to maintain a temporary
status quo as of the date of the
armistice in European international
affairs until the treaty was consum-
mated. The Supreme Council has
been a bowling farce since its in
ception. It has functioned like a
doddering paralytic and it has per-
mitted to come to pass a series of
situations in Europe which suggest
the possibility of another great war.
Here are some instances which have
occurred under the aegis of that
supine body:
Three times has the boundary line
between Poland and Lithuania been
laid down by the Supreme Council,
and three times has the demarca-
ton been violated by Poland, with a
fourth violation now in prospect.
Lithuania, a small nation which has
set up housekeeping for itself un-
der the principle of self f-determina-
ton, is being devoured pieeemeal by
her greedy neighbor, and apparently
with the consent of the Supreme
Council. The very capital of Llth-
uania is in the hands of the Poles.
In addition to this the Poles have
repeatedly violated the territorial
integrity of White Russia, Ukrainia
and Czecko-Slovakia, to gather from
foreign dispatches. Poland carries
on like a weasel in a chicken coop,
without rebuke from the Supreme
Council, and Paderewski undoubt-
edly told the truth when he said the
Council would not dare to oppose
Polish aims.
The Supreme Council has stood
idly by and witnessed the occupation
of Bucharest by Rumania, and not
a hand appears to have been lifted
to prevent it. The Supreme Council
must have had ample information,
amply in advance, of the plot to
seize F1ume. Whatever the merits
of Italian contention that Fiume be-
longed to Italy, the Peace Conferees
awarded it to Jugo-Slavia, and the
Supreme Council made only a be-
lated motion to preserve that award
by ordering the United States Navy
to the Adriatic.
In consequence of the Fiume
seizure 1t is now quite possible that
Germany may seize Danzig and JUS
tify such action by the Fiume prece-
dent The insolent reply of Won
der Goltz, commander of the Ger
man forces occupying the Baltic
provinces in violation of the armis
tice terms, to the allied military
commission to vacate, indicates al
too plainly the frame of mind Of the

The Watt Centenary
From the Philadelphia Record

TFrom the Philadelphia RecordI
birmingham has just finished
celebrating the centenary of the
death of James Watt, the founder Of
practical steam engineering, al
though he was not the first to note
the expansive power of water under
heat exceeding 212 degrees. That
was known to the ancients and even
in Watts time there were other ex-
perimenters.
All are familiar with the story of
Watts attention being drawn to the
subject in his youth by stopping the
mouth of his mothers kettle. 1t
took a long time for him to evolve
ideas which succeeded in harnessing
this power for practical purposes.
No invention in history has had
such indust rial or sociological value.
1t upset the conditions of centuries,
even of milleniums, but started a
new industrial era which has not
been without it's drawbacks. 1t
should be pointed out to those who
think that machinery is a great evil
because 1t chains human beings so
long to labor, that in the time of
Watt twelve to fourteen hours-and
even longer-at the hand-loom were
not unusual.
Aside from a little energy devel-
oped by water power the human
race depended almost entirely Upon
it's own muscles. That railways de-
veloped soon and revolutionized
transportation is we'll known.
i The important fact about steam
harnessing is that so little has been
developed since the days of Watt
His fundamental principles are still
| in use although modern engines are
monsters of efficiency and power
which he never contemplated. Yet
the unpleasant fact remains that the
wa. te of coal or any other fuel as
applied to steam production Is enor'
nous.

SETTLED"

" HE announcement is made by
Premier Lloyd George that the
British railways strike has
been settled" That means the men
have returned to work, traffic has
been resumed, the government feels
it has won a victory and the work
men are satisfied.
But what about the public?
What have the common people
got out of the strike?
Who is going to settle" with them
for the loss and inconvenience they
sustained?
So it is with every strike. The
disinterested public has to pay the
bill, and indications are not lacking
that it is getting mighty tired of
being made the goat.

THE BRIDGE LOAN

T HE Telegraph is in receipt of Il
letter from well-known resi-
dent of the Allison Hill district,
who does not desire to have his name
published, which we hope sets forth
fairly we'll the sentiments of a great
majority of the people of that To-
cality with regard to the transfer
of 100000 from the Walnut street
to the State street bridge fund. In
part he says:
I am pleased to note that the
Rotary club is stirring up in
terest in the passage of the $780,
900 bridge loan. 1 was one of
those who worked hardest for a
bridge at Walnut street. and l
would still like to see the bridge
there, but as the experts have de-
tcrmincd that it must go at State
street l am not so bigoted as to
put up my opinion against theirs.
Besides. the State will give us a
much better bridge at state than
our small sum would build at
Walnut. and so l am out working
this time for the transfer of the
fund. l think that is the way
