HUME AND pANZlG.

IL is quite natural in connection with the Plume question that it should be maintained that that matter ought 10 be adjusted along much the same lines as the Polish claim for Danzig. It has been recognized that it is of vital importance to free Poland that it should have an outlet to the sea and the logical port is Danzig on the Bal tic. But the proposition that has been advanced in this respect is to make Danzig an international port which would give it the outlet, by means of a narrow strip which would permit it 10 cross Prussia, while those who now iise the port would not be denied it even though Poland was permitted to use it without actually placing it in the possession of Poland.
 Plume is at present the outlet for the Jugoslsvs. including Serbia. To place it under the control of Italy simply means that the new nation which will be made up of Serbians and Jugoslavs will be denied it's nat ural way 10 the sea and permitted to use it only as Italy might direct or by the payment of taxes such as Italy would fix. Make it an internationa port and there would be no harm in ficted upon Italy since Italy would have as much use of it as it would ii it was Italian territory, while at the same time the chance to get and keer in touch with the outside world would he accorded to the Jugoslav nation As a matter of fact in the agreement which Italy entered into with the en- tente nations it did not demand thu turning over of Fiume to Italy bu agreed that it should go to the Greats The handing over to Plume to Italy simply means going contrary to tn, policy which uas been advanced il regard to Poland and what is just il one case ought to be so regarded il Inc other. and it cannot be overlooked ihat the internationalizing of Fiumt would create better neighborhooC feeling than it would to give it eithe to Italy or the Jugo- slaVs.

HIS ORIGINAL MENUS

 Whats that?" asked her husband in sincere alarm. 'rNo meals, you say?"

 "Why-er-beefstea suggested her husband anxiously. "And-er- potatoes?' T knew it!" said his wife batting her marcelled hair frantically. When

trial before an international tribunal of five judges representing the five big nations. It could hardly be expected that any single nation, much as it would like to, would attempt it alone. In fact it has been claimed that there is no precedent for taking some of the steps that have been urged as a means of punishing him for what he has done, but there has never been any disposition on the part of the al lied nations to permit him to get away without scratch any more than there has been to overlook the part which certain of his leaders have taken in adding to the frightfulness of the war.
 While for time it seemed as though the taking up of his abode in Holland might insure his protection, it can hardly be expected that the need of properly punishing such a cul- prit, after all theN misery he has caused in the world. would be over looked, or that there would be a fail 1re to d. everything possible to bring him to the bar of justice. What his fate will be is problematical but it is certain he needs to be made an exam pie of before the world as an object , lesson for peace.

MAKING THE PUBLIC PAY.

In connection with the announced increase in telephone rates in Massa- chusetts it is by no means surprising that Chairman Macleod of the Massa- chusetts Public Service commission should declare that there ought to be a thorough investigation in connection herewith. That such would take place were the lines not under gov ernment control goes without saying, but iuasmuch as it is maintained by the court that the government has the right to raise the rates regardless of the sanction of the state commission it would appear that the commission would have little to do with the alter alton of the rates once they have been made And again if the rates arc such as 10 call for an investiga tion, it would appear that the reason for the increase would be likewise open to in Vestigation, for if the commission should pass on the justice of one side of the matter it ought likewise to do the same on the other side.
 The whole situation develops from the taking over of the wire lines by the government and requiring higher rates for the operation thereof under B centralized control than were re- quired when the companies were uu- der separate guidance, and when the state commission had the authority tc pass upon all increases.
 But with a second increase in rates coming within few months it is only right that those who pay the freight should get proper consideration, for ii the increase is solely for the purpose of meeting the additional expense caused by increased wages, the ad- vance, which the public is made tC pay, should be no more than to balance the wage increase. It is this phase O the matter which the commissions considers should be safeguarded There certainly is no reason under tn, present situation why the public should be made to pay more than thu amount needed for the increased wages.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Whats become of that old fashioned habit of giving special May break fasts?
 April has certainly done nothing to win any praise from the dealers in straw hats.
 Of course everyone will be up in time to give the May day the proper sort of a welcome
 It is only like waving a red flag in front of bull to tell the householder that the cost of living has dropped three per cent.
 1t should be remembered that your subscription to the Victory notes will help to give the loan the spurt that is required to reach the goal.
 The man on the corner says: The great trouble in many arguments is that the ground of common sense is too often left uncultivated.
 Just how sincere the people of Genoa were when they named a street for Wilson is well displayed now when they change it to Fiume-
 Somehow or other the impression is gained that too much attention is be- | tion with the Victory loan when al restrictions have been removed. From now on we ought not to have to wait long to see what the authori- ties are going to do about stopping the manufacture of fermented liquor: and how they are going to, do it. With nonstop flights being made for periods which it is figured wal bt necessary to reach the Azores nep confidence must be gained by the flier! | who are getting ready to hop off. Since A. Mitchell Palmer has beer named as attorney general he seem to have become the political explaine and prophet of the administration quite in contrast to his predecessors. Regardless of how Italy may feel il 1 regard to Plume there is no reasol why it should not participate in tn signing of peace with Germany whel the time comes.

PUNISHING Ex-KAiSER.

In connection with the peace ar- engagements it is quite natural that attention should be turned to the question as to what i8 to be done re- garding the former kaiser For some time members of the peace conference have been engaged in a determina- ton of his personal accountability and in reaching a conclusion as to what sort of punishment should be meted out to him. and also to oth CTS who were guilty with him of the frightful crimes committed upon hu- manity during the war.
 The proposition has been advanced that the allies should demand him from Holland. where he has taken re- fuge and where it is insisted he is an unwelcome guest. and place him on

SPORTS,

Just as was expected sports were obliged to take a back seat during the war. For the most part they are par ticipated in by the young people and they were concerned with other things. Baseball both of the college and big league classification had a hard struggle. The number of golf CTS and tennis players was greatly di- unfinished. Aquatics were abandoned or so nearly so that there was little interest. Football was forgotten and track meets were put of. Those who put the life into such games were called into the service of their coun- try in one way or another. The situa- 1on was so abnormal and the interest so intense in the part the country was playing in the var that sports had to be shunted to one side for the time being.
 But the war is now over and though it may not seem s9. the coun- try is getting back to normal condi- tions as fast as it can and with the changes sports will again regain the place in the public mind that they previously held The effects of the
  Interruption will of course be felt fol stars have been lost and others have given up their favorite games for goot for one reason or another.

RALEIGH BASEBALL

Raleigh, Oct. 29.-Steps were
taken yesterday to have professional
baseball in the city next year at a
meeting of few fans in the rooms
of the chamber of commerce.
, visitor at the meeting was Ted Sui
livan, known throughout America
as the king of baseball, who came
to Raleigh in the interest of North
Carolina league.
The question of securing the old
baseball park, now used as a gar
age by the Highway Commission,
was the first subject considered. It
was pointed out that the fans of
Raleigh are ready for baseball and
it is only a question of a park that
hinders an active start toward the
organization of local club.
Before starting an organization, it
was decided to ascertain if the old
park can be secured by the transfer
of the Highway Commission trucks
to another site. A committee was
named to confer with Mr.. Frank
Page, chairman of the commission,
and report back at $50 this after
noon to the chambers baseball COM
mittee.
The question of baseball club in
Raleigh next year centers upon the
use of the old park. The report of
the special committee will have
much to with the future plans of
Raleigh moguls. If the report this
aftern1 mis- in favor of the fans,
the committee will proceed toward
an organization and name a repre-
sentative to attend the baseball meet
ing Friday in Durham.
Mr.. w. G. Bramham, president of
the last North Carolina league, has
called a meeting of baseball enthu-
siasts for Friday in Durham and at
that time an effort will be made to
form a league. Representatives
will be there from Durham, VIII
mington, Wilson, Rocky Mount.
Greensboro, Fayetteville, High Point
Winston-Salem, Danville, Roanoke.
I.ynchburg. 1t is practically certain
that Raleigh will be represented.

TION 100000 TONS.

Washington, Oct. 29.-Federal
Fuel Administrator Harry Garfield
was here today in consultation with
Secretary Tumulty. He was sum-
moned from Williams College of
which he is the president to secure
lis views of the situation and in on
der to secure his advice regarding

DR.. Garfield is still at the head of
the fuel administration and his de-
partment under the act of congress
still functions. He expressed the
opinion there would be no strike of
the soft coal miners and that they
remain at work. He stated that he
was keeping closely in touch with
the situation from every standpoint.

Charleston, w. Va, Oct. 29.-4O,-
600 miners employed in 466 mines
of the soft coal district produce

they should obey the strike order
next Friday just this amount of coal
would be removed from the chan
nels of trade and industry.
