Venizelos's Protest

Premier Venizeos wants to know why
the United States is participating in the
negotiation of treaty of peace between
the Allied powers and Bulgaria. The
same question has puzzled many Amer
leans.
The United States has never been at
war with Bulgaria. Diplomatic rela-
tions were not interrupted during the
period in which we were at war with
Germany and AUSTRIA Hungary, Bull
garia's allies. The Bulgarian Minister
remained at his post IN Washington. We
had diplomatic representative in Sofia.
He vent to Saonica with the Bulgarian
plenipotentiaries who asked General
Franchet d'Esperey for az armstice.
How can the United States, never
having engaged in hostilities with Bul-
garia, take a hand as a belligerent in
framing q treaty Of peace with her?
We already have treaties Of amty with
her which have never been broken. And
if not as bellgerent, in what other role
can the United States enter peace
parley with the Bulgarians?
The contention has been set up that we
may become party to the Bulgarian
treaty because it contains the covenant
Of the league Of nations. The repre-
sentatives of the United States at Paris
have already signed treaty with Ger
many which embraces the covenant.
They will probably soon sign a treaty
with AUSTRIA also including it. The
ratification of either Of these conventions
would bring us into the league The
argument that we must sign a peace
treaty with a power with which we are
already at peace merely in order to as
sure our admission into the society of
nations is too sophisticated to take Sc
riously
Venzelos, moreover, questions the
proprcty of American participation in
the framing Of treaty with Bulgaria,
not because our delegates merely want to
subscribe TO the covenant for a third
time but because they are discussing and
passing upon territorial settlements
The United States has no right TO sit
at council board at which Bulgarian
territory is being disposed or This

The Washington Riots

The disgraceful race conflict that has
sullied Washington and which makes our
pretensions of sympathy for justice seem
grossly hypocritical presents phenomena
usual in such disturbances-tha is to
say, the chasers are mainly white men
and the chased are mainly black men.
Driven into corners, the primary in
stinct of self-defence has asserted itself
and the assaled have armed themselves
and when opportunity offered have at
tempted retaliation.
The usual excuse is given that black
men are attacking white women, but so
far few particulars of this are given, and
the reports are to be accepted with re-
serve as at least exaggerated. But even
though there are negro criminals, as
there are, there is no reason for gen.
eral attack on the innocent. The out
break is to be attributed to blind race
prejudice-to the feeling entertained by
many temporarily in Washington that
negroes need to be taught their places;
that in Washington they are not suf-
ficiently abject in their manners.

without bloodshed There was no interrupt
tion in the social and business life of the
city. The holiday proclaimed in honor of
the United States was held as planned En-
thusiastic meetings took place in the prov
inces in favor of the new government as
soon as the news reached them, and the
authorities and soldiers everywhere joined
the movement without hesitation. The Su-
preme Court and other institutions have al
ready recognized the government.
President Leguia has received, from all
parts, thousands of letters, cablegrams and
kilograms of congratulation. There has
been no change whatsoever in the normal
life of the country.

Peru's Ouerturr
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: | have been instructed by the Min
lister of Foreign Affairs in Peru to place
before the public of the United States the
Following facts in relation to the recent
change in government which has taken
place in Peru:
Augusta B. Leguia received an over
whelming majority of the electoral vote in
Peru in the election which took place in
May of this year. Notwithstanding this. il
became known that it was the intention of
the government of Dr. Pardo to avoid COM
plying with the popular will. Congress,
controlled by the friends of the govern
ment, was to nulify the elections, and
third person or compromise candidate was

would not have had popular majority In
carrying out this plan the former govern
ment besa1&to close printing Offices where
publications. supporting Leguia were pub
lishcd, placing therein military guards,
which were withdrawn by the present gov
crnment. Notwithstanding that Judges. the
Superior Court and later the Supreme
Court ordered the Minister of Justice and
other authorities to return these properties
to their owners
At the same time persons in public life
and those identified with politics, as we'll
as workingmen, all supporters Of Leguia
were imprisoned. These acts of force were
clearly dictatorial and were carried out in
spite of public protest. In view of this. and
as these repressive measures increased
day by day, the supporters Of Lcguia,
backed by public opinion, decided as last
measure to net in order that the popular
vote be not made sport of. On the morn
ing of July 4 President Pnrdo was taksn
from the palace and placed in separate
department in the penitentary, whers he
was treated with every considerations The
public forces respected the popular will
and Joined the movement, which took place

"AcceIera6on"

Senator Kenyon complains of the food
Of stock letters and kilograms with which
he and other Senator'S are delugcd.
These stereotyped communications are
signed by people willing to oblige some

The cost Of sending the telegram is paid
not by the sender but by the interest
which solicits his signature.
Thus factitious public sentiment is
created. 1t is the time -honored process
Of "acceleration." But it has been over

Paris dispatches say that the Amer

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir If you, by investigation or personal
inquiry, should get in touch with the advo-
Gates of daylight saving l am positive that
you will find that their hour of starting
their days work is s, 9 or 10 a. m. and that
they are through at 4, 80 or p. m.
These are nice, agreeable hours, but what
about the thousands right in the city Of New
York who begin their day at from 80 to a.
M, which means arising at 4:15 or 80? We
workers do not base our objections on the fact
that we are compelled to arise in darkness
during the summer as we'll as the winter
months wholly, but to the added fact that we
are deprived of an hour or more sleep every
night AS it is daylight till or after we
consider ourselves very lucky if we can get
to sleep at 10. This is only six to six and
one-half hours sleep, depending on whether
our clock rings at 4:15 or 80.
AS we work seven days week Gin my case
1t is seventythree hours), we find this loss
of sleep very serious affair, and it is no
self-deception either. If any of the members
of the Daylight Saving Association think it
is let them try these hours for week and
III wager they will agree with us.

Solids We Breathe
(From The Manchester GUARDIAN

(Fron The Manchester Guordion)
Manchester it is good to know, has not
yet managed to acquire the dirtiest atmos-
phere in the kingdom. The Lancet" this
week published the annual report of the
Committee on Atmospheric Pollution, which
is a branch Of the Meteorological Office, and
its tables, compiled from gauges at twenty
four stations up and down the country.
give some surprising results. Rochdae, if
its figures be accurate, heads the inglorous
list with a total annual deposit of solids
from its air of 34Sl metric tons per square
kilometre. But we must hope that Rochdale
has been maligned by its own gauges, for
no other town even approaches this pinnacle
of uncleanliness. Newcastle comes next
with deposit of POSI- tons, and Manchester
citizens can breathe comparatively freely
with mere matter of some fourteen tons
to inhale, even in the heart of the city.
They are better off than Glasgow folk, who
have to assimlate about the same amount
in their suburbs. and they can be quite
scornful of Londoners, on whom, if they
live near the Embankment. twenty-four tons
descend.
There is a certain am cunt of interesting
specialization among cities in the precise
form of solids that they affect. Thus ST.
Helens naturally holds the record for the
consumption, in its air. Of tar. chlorine and
ammonia. Newcastle has a fondness for
insoluble ash, while the Londoner is
regular whale on sulphates. Manchester
is not fastidious, but thrives on reason
able diet of the whole lot. Malvern is q.
the bottom of this inverted honor list. with
only 261 tons.
That may we'll seem an impracticable
ideal at present for any except a country
town Yet If the existing powers and de-
vices for smoke abatement were utilized the
whole country might approximate to NAL
vern in the purity of its air 1t rests with
the citizen himself to demand that his diet
OF grntuitous solids shall be discontinued

The freedom of the City of London. with

The actual document given to his royal

Licensing Dye Imports

No reason can be advanced for the in
lection of partisanship into the bill for
licensing the import Of dyestuffs which
Representative Longworth announces
will soon be favorably reported by the
House Ways and Means Committee Here
is an aftermath Of the war which should
be considered wholly from the stand
point Of patriotism and legitimate ma
tional defence
The facts in the main are clear to
the public. In the pre-war period the
German chemical companies. under the
patronage of the German government,
attained a practical monopoly of the
making of dyestuffs. When hostilities
closed German ports manufacturers
everywhere, particularly in this country,
found themselves cut off from an essen
tial raw material. But chemists went
to work, capital was enlisted, and by a
rare exercise of energy the void was
partially filled.
But the work was only half done when
our ports were reopened by the President
to German trade. We were turning out
many dyes, and prices of some had been
lowered by domestic competition below
the former level, but we did not make
tull line. 1t was necessary to get
market for by-products and to perfect
processes. We do not produce all colors,
and as to those which we do not pro-
duce Germany is now in position toy
control our market and at the same time
to dictate prices.
The mere imposition of protective
tariff is not enough to meet the problem,
for our manufacturers for an indefinite
period must get some German dyes or
be at q disadvantage in international
competition. At the same time our
chemists must be encouraged to con-
tNlue their work. So a license system
is necessary to secure dyes that are
needed and to avoid injury to our devcl-
oping dye industry A license system
under which control will be with a com
mission Of manufacturers, consumers
and the government seems essential,
even though theoretically Objectionable.
The abnormality Of the dye ye-making
industry was recognized by President
Wilson when he said in his message
that it must be safeguarded for political
as we'll as economic reasons. A dive
plant is also a maker of the raw ma
terials of munitions Of war The treaty
dismantles Germany's cannon works and
her arship factories, but her chemical
plants are to remain intact 1t will
scarcely do to allow to her again the
advantage she possessed in 1914. Legit-
mate defence requires We have COM
plete chemical works if We would not
be helpless before gas maEcrs.
In the opinion OF practically all who
have studied the complicated and ran,if '.
