and accordingly it was felt that
only combination of colors would
adequately describe victory" in
dress. The combination of navy
and Mikado color, called victory,
was designed as combination
symbolizing peace and victory. The
colors do not have to be blended
into a single shade, but instead,
can be worn in combination. For
instance, a navy blue dress may be
piped with Mikado very effectively
and combined in many ways in
millinery or can be worn separate
ly or combined in one, as the in
dividual may desire.

The District Firemen.

Withdrawal from affiliation with a
national labor organization of the
local frmen's union will, it is ex-
pected, facilitate the passage of the
bill now pending before the Senate
committee increasing the scale of fire
mems pay. This action has been
taken by the firemen in compliance
with the condition expressed in the
bill as passed by the House, and is an
act of good faith which is to be
promptly recognized and warmly ap-
plauded. The firemen of the District
constitute a loyal, efficient body and
have met every test. They amply de-
serve the increased pay which the
pending measure provides, and it is
gratifying to find them so quickly
and fully meeting the stipulation pro-
posed by the House, and it is under
stood favored by the Senate, that they
shall be free of all affiliation that NAV
in any degree initiate against their
full devotion t, the public service.
The speedy passage of the pay bill
should now follow.

legislator in dealing with questions Of
finance. So that Mr.. Glass as senator
will continue the Martin tradition, 80
to say.
Mr.. Glass hesitation is interpreted
in this way: He weighed the mat
ter, not from selfish, but from a
patriotic standpoint. He asked
himself whether he would best serve
the country where he now is. or in
the Senate. He likes the work Of a
legislator, as evidenced by the fact
that he remained in the House a long
time, and was reluctant to leave.
Strong pressure was necessary to IN
duce him to accept the Treasury post
And doub btless his appointment as SEN
ator will be ratified by an election to
the Office a year hence.
Treasury questions today are of an
unusually weighty and complex char
aeter. In his twelve months at the
head of the Treasury Department Mr.
Glass has familiari1ed himself with
the country's financial situation. His
course in Office has given satisfaction
to both the political world and to the
business world, and he is on excel
lent terms with his chief.
The Treasury post has not in many
years possessed the Importance it now
possesses With the outside worlds
finances in a tangle of disIocations,
our own are necessarily affected, and
call for the most watchful care and
guidance. The financial officer of the
government at this time must con-
slider and decide questions of great
gravity and far reaching influence.

Thieves and Footpads.

Footpads have become so bold in
this city that they venture to hold up
people afoot and in motor cars in
daylight Saturday afternoon two
robberies of this kind occurred. At
the corner of North Capitol street and
Rhode Island avenue at 4:30 o'clock
in the afternoon two youngsters with
a gun held up a woman and took $50
from her. While it was still light
four men in a motor car held up an
other in an automobile at 18th street
and Military road and robbed him Of
$3.50. Sneak thieves and pickpockets
are also at work successfully. There
is an epidemic Of theft and the most
thorough efforts are necessary on the
part of the police to check it.
The hold-up men are working in
pairs or larger numbers. These gangs
pick their times and places when

Mr.. Glass and the Senate.

Secretary Glass accepts appointment
attributable to sense of duty to the
administration.
The appointment has been applauded
on two grounds: 0 Going straight
from the cabinet, Mr. Glass will ally
himself with the Presidents strong sup
porters in the Senate, and be of much
assistance in the forwarding of the
administrations whole program. His
exuerience as legislator will be
of great value to him and to his party
at time of so much importance as
the present. He will bring to the
place so much prestige from long serv-
zee elsewhere. his recognition in the
Senate will be immediate and his in
fuence begin to operate at once.
(2) A likeness is traced between
Mr.. Glass and the late Mr.. Martin. The
latter, though trained lawyer, had
what is called "a business head" He
had a quick and clear perception of
business matters. He appraised ques-
tions as they came before Congress
from a practical, business point of
view. He would do things rather than
talk about them. Mr.. Glass, as a sue
eessful newspaper proprietor, has had
q business training. In the House he
confined himself largely to business
questions. He owes his present Office
to the prominence he achieved as 8

Law Needed for Protection.

Attorney General Palmer's requisi-
tion for a law which will cover the
crimes now being committed by rad
icals who are plotting the overthrow
of the government by attacks upon its
industrial system will surprise many
Americans who have felt that the
statutes already suffice to provide safe
guards against sedition. It seems that
technically there is no ground for the
punishment of an anarchist who
breaches social revolution, the con-
fiscation of property and the destruc-
ton of governmental institutions.
Wartime legislation has enabled the
government to deal with the plotters
who have undertaken to thwart eff
forts to conduct the campaign against
the enemy. But now the enemy is in
our own ranks and the object of their
malevolent efforts is the United
States. Even under the espionage act
it is difficult to hold the radicals un-
less they engage in positive criminal
acts. Augmentation, persuasion, agi-
tation are not thus to be elassed.
Preachments to the end of the de-
struetion of the present system of gov
ernment and law are not punishable,
according to the view now expressed.
There came to The Star today in
the mails a circular, under Washing
ton postmark, which calls upon the
oppressed to rise, to arm themselves,
to retaliate upon officials for the re-
cent roundup of the reds. 1t was a
"calI to arms" anonymous but obvious
ly sincere in its intent to arouse a
general reprisal for the efforts of the
government to check anarchism in this
country. Presumably thousands of
copies of this circular have been dis
tributed, by mail and by hand.
Thus it appears that secret propa-
ganda is in progress, here and doubt
less throughout the country, to murder
officials, to foment strikes, to plot a
revolution. If this is not a crime
under the present laws, it is the i'm
perative duty of Congress immediate
ly to enact laws that make it such.
The man who breaches crime is him
self criminal, though his hand may
do no more than pen the words that
are flung forth by printed page to in
fame the fanatic to the deed itself.
Self-protection is the first need Of
the state, as of the citizen. Whether
enrolled in the ranks of the Industrial
Workers of the World, or in some one
of the groups of hare-brained aliens
who are making this country their
plotting place, those who aim at the
subversion Of the government. the de-
struction and confscation of prop
erty, the checking of production, the
starvation of the innocent, are guilty
of the gravest offense and should be
punished to the limit of the laws ca
pacity.

thsrs are no police about. Saturday
afternoon they were evidently work
ing on the theory that many people
would be going home with money just
drawn from the government in sal
aries.
It would be well if people who must
60 about on the streets alone
should provide themselves with police
whistles. A blast on such a whis-
tie will summon help and will. more
over, frighten off the thief or as
sailant. While it may not in all cases
prevent the intended crime it will at
tract attention quickly enough in many
instances to permit pursuit. These
whistles can be obtained without diff
ficulty at small cost and should be
generally carried by the people, in
such a way as to permit of quick use.
A woman should not carry a whistle
in her handbag, which is the first OBJ
ject of a thief's attention, but in a
pocket apart from her valuables.

The Reds. Foreign and Native.

The discovery of a serious and wide
spread movement to overthrow the
American form of government by men
living under the government and en-
joying the governments protection has
cznsed a distinct shock. And still
more shocking has been the discovery
that some of these men are American
born, who have seen close up, and
shared, the many fine fruits of the
government functionings.
There is no assertion in any quar-
ter that the American form is perfect.
It was fashioned with great difficulty.
At the very outset a number of the
leaders of the people expected and
predicted failure. They could not see
how such government could succeed.
But it did succeed. Success soon
began to record itself. The country
grew in size, and prospered. 1t pros
peTed 50 greatly, and the prosperity
became so widely advertised, people
were attracted from all over the
world. The population increased by
leaps and bounds. We are now over
hundred millions strong; and the
restoration of peace is likely to re-
store the rapid rate of increase. Be
fore the halfcentury mark is turned.
twenty or thirty more millions
may be added to the human figures.
America is now in the foremost line
Of progress, and hoping to head the
line. She has the resources to sup
port her aspirations. She bulges with
raw materials; and more skilled labor
is employed within her borders in
turning out finished products than can
be found in any other country. The
future for her looks exceedingly
bright.
And yet here are men dissatisfied
with all this, and urging the scrapping
of all that has produced it. What they
would put in it's place is so loosely de-
scribed, it bears no known form of
what Is called government. 1t sug-
gests, if anything, the taking by force,
If necessary, from those who have.
and giving to those who have not, with
periods Of idleness and indulgence,
and general jamboree.
The argument sometimes offered
that this sort of thing is so extreme
and absurd it might be well to let it
burn itself out is not persuasive in
the conditions that exist. It is the
day of agitation and unrest. Appeals
of all sorts are being made to the idle
and the discontented. The war has
left much confusion in all walks of
life. Men who ordinarily would
not give a moments attention to a
soap-box orator now crowd around him
and drink in his wild-eyed deliver
ances.
1t is the part of prudence, there
fore, to put these fomenters of revo-
luton out of action. Such as are vio-
lating the hospitality of the country
should be expelled the country, while
those who are at home should be
silenced in some thoroughly effective
way.
