Crossing Rules and Casualties.

A coroner's jury has held an auto
mobilist for causing the death of
man at the corner of 14th and Q
streets. The victim was crossing the
street, taking advantage of the fact
that street car had stopped and that
a motor had been halted under the
fifteen foot rule, when second motor
coming from behind the first proceed
ed without hating and hit the man,
inficting fatal injuries. There should
be no misunderstanding about the
regulation that requires the full stop
ping of all vehicles behind street cars
that have halted to take on or let off
passengers. 1t is perfectly we'll known.
Even in broad streets where there is
room for three vehicles going in the
same direction between curb and car
track, this rule prevails. In this in
stance. the coroner's jury finds, life
was sacrificed because the rule was
ignored.
Pedestrians have absolutely no pro-
lection at street crossings save as they
are safeguarded by the operation of
the "impulse" regulations at sema-

Open Discussion Of the Treaty.

The fight is on. The appeal now is
to the people. A great deal of dis
cussion, oral and written, will take
place in this country in the next ninety
days on the subject of league of ma
tiols. Those who favor a league will
seek to create sentiment for effect on
tho Senate when that body takes up
the instrument which shall have been
fashioned by the peace conference.
Per contra, those who oppose league
at any rate, such league as the
President has now in mind-will ask
public sentiment to sustain the posi-
tioa taken by Senators Lodge, Knox,
Bcrah, Reed, Cummins, Poindexter and
others in their recent deliverances.
There viii be no trouble about se-
curing attention. No subject at pres
ent rivals that subject. People viii
flock to hear addresses from those com
petent to speak, and particularly those
who Will have a voice and vote in the
disposition Of the peace treaty. And

A Bad legislative Practice.

Who caused the failure of number
of the supply bills? The democrats ac-
cuse the republicans, the republicans
pass the buck to the democrats. Why
not place the responsibility where it
properly belongs? What is palmer
than that leg slative practice is re-
sponsible, and who does not know that
both parties in turn have INDUCED in
that practice9
1t is an old and familiar story. Sup
ply bills are often used for bloekading
purposes. Legislative Jams are created
with them Measures that have aroused
warm controversy are thus held back,
and some of them defeated.
In such proceedings there is always
risk to the supply bills themselves.
They may be defeated, or passed in
bad form as the result of an eleventh
hour rush No big supply bill should
ever be rushed. In that way jobs are
easily engineered. 1t is impossible in
rush to give bill with many differ
ent items the proper examination. 1t
is whipped through pretty much as pre-
sented, good and bad mingl;ng.
The practice should be changed; and
now that the republicans have come
back they could do nothing better than
institute change. In some way the
supply bills should be brought forward
earlier, and disposed of in good season,
thus making it impossible for jams to
be erected with them at the close Of
session.
Tho short session of a Congress is
limited by law to three months As
matter of fact, however, the business
is largely confined to two months. For
no sooner is the session begun than a
recess of a fortnight is taken for the
Christmas holidays; and a week at
least is necessary for shaking down
purposes after Congress reassembles
so that the work OF the session IS prac-
tieally packed into the period between
January 10 and March 4too short
for satisfactory handling of what is
in hand.
The bills that failed yesterday were
prepared under democratic auspices.
As the republicans are now in control
something different may be presented
for action when the new Congress
meets. But the government must have
money for its support, and should have
it in amount necessary to meet all the
obligations the war has imposed.
Skimping Uncle Sam at such a time
would be both poor and a danger

tant that has been developed in half a
century.
Why not at the same time ask for q
popular expression as to an open dis
cussion of the peace treaty when it is
submitted to the Senates Why should
the Senate's doors be closed at such a
time9 Who does not know that public
curiosity will be keyed to the top pitch
VIII lie the business in the Senate IS upa
Let us suppose the rule as to treaties
applied-the doors of the Senate cham
Der locked, and senators put on promise
not to reveal any feature Of the execu-
tive sessions. The s tuat on would put
the country on edge. The air from
ocean to ocean would become heavy
and oppressive with rumors. Inven-
ton would be melted and stimulated,
and everything would "go."
Moreover, the situation would be
protracted. The treaty W II be full of
matter, and every senator VIII desire
to be heard And no gag rule, prop
crly so-called, runs in the Senate.

No Street Cleaning.

Some years ago Congress used to
dole out money in small amounts to
the District for cleaning off the snow
from the streets, with the result that
a heavy fall of snow would often catch
the capital without funds for street
cleaning. Tn was corrected by an
enlargement OF the money supply.
Lately the Old pract ce of appropriate
ing inadequateiy for street cleaning
has been resumed, and the funds have
run short before the expiration of the
fiscal year. THIS is now the case.
There is not enough money to the
credit of the District for this service
to Justify it in continuing the clean
ing work for even another day. The
sam of $l15,G00 was asked in season
and this was cut down to 100000 in
the House when the item was put on
the deficiency bill. Now that bill has
been lost in the end of session Jam,
and there is no money for street clean
ing and consequently no street clean
ing. The District cannot borrow the
funds and the men will not work with
out pay. The streets must go dirty
1t is a deplorable situation, menacing
to the public health The hope is that

phore intersections and at other places
where street cars make stops. AT
crossings without car tracks in either
direction they literally have to take
their own chances in going from curb
to curb. Motors are rarely slowed in
speed. 1t is wholly up to the pedes-
trian to note the condition of the
traffic and to make his way across
when the way is clear. This is an
unfair condition. The rule that re-
quires slowing of speed should be
enforced until motorists check their
machines on approaching a street cor
ner. A machine that is travelling at
the legal rate of speed at crossing
can always be halted in time to avoid
collision.

The President and Congress.

A deplorable antason SIN has de-
veloped between the executive and
Congress. Feeling over the Pres
dents departure from precedent in his
voyage to Europe had subsidized when,
on his return trip, he expressed the
wish that no discussion of the league
of nations plan should take place in
his absence and in effect sought to
check debate by inviting members of
the foreign relations committees to a
dinner conference on the subject. This
did not have the effect of checking dis
cussion, but rather stimulated it. 1t
is believed by some that had the Presi-
dent recognized the disposition of the
republican leaders, feeling themselves
charged by the November mandate
with responsibility for the legislative
program, to insist upon more careful
consideration for pending bills and
agreed to an earlier extra session than
that contemplated by him, there would
have been no such jam at the close of
the session yesterday.
Inasmueh as much important legis-
lation was left over from the regular
to the inevitable special session it was
most unfortunate that there was a
manifestation of feeling on the Presi
dents part, expressed both here and
in New York, against those who have
been adversely discussing the league
of nations plan in the Senate and those
whom the President holds responsible
for the blockade of bills. For better
or worse the next Congress will be re-
publican and. the President must do
business with it. 1t does not make
for happiness in speech or in action
for either side to show i'll temper
Whether the senator's who take issue
with the present draft of the league of
nations covenant are right or wrong
they were within their rights in dis
CuaciAS H de pdit VI the ioeiohoi Poi-
icy in prospect. And it would have
been better, whatever his chagrin at
the failure of the session to enact all
the necessary legislation, to accept the
situation philosophically and without
an appeal to the country in view of
the fact that at some time between now
and July he must ask the republican
Congress for imperatively necessary
laws and appropriations wholly dis
tinct from and in no wise bearing upon
the league Of nations plan.
Possibly, however, before the time
comes to call Congress together there
via have been q softening of feeling
and Q better relationship Will have been
established by the lapse Of time. To this
end It is to be hoped that there win
be no more raneor and no further ex
change Of caustic compliments, nor

the President on the subject of the
