and bloodiest war of all history, Where
other wars have slain hundreds Of
thousands, this worlds war has taken
toll of millions. The peoples of earth
have been brought face to face with
death as never before since the cru
Gifted Christ rose from the dead. What
will be the effect?
Man has always striven to believe
In what Addison calls "this pleasing
hope, this fond desire, this longing
after Immortality" And now men who
have stood ready to make the greatest
OF all sacrifices for home, country, and
right in the very heart of this with
Ing vortex of war have had the qnes-
ton brought home to them. The hearts
OF countless thousands, reaching across
,, the seven seas to those near and dear
who have paid the price Of victory and
sleep I'm Flanders fields where pop.
pies grow" and the far.f1ung battle
front, demand an answer.
Philosophy has not been against the
Immortality of the soul. Science has
brought affirmative testimony. Yet
but one life has solved this darkest of
all mysteries; but one life has ever
won the victory over death. And the
message OF this one victory is: II
am he that llveth and was dead, and
behold l am alive fer evermorn" Will
the peoples of the earth believe?
The Easter message is the message
of the empty tomb, Of the new life,
higher and more purposeful. Appar-
emily the world lifts its face toward
the morning. Apparently a league Of
nations If not the league of nations is
to usher in a new day. AS there was
never in all history such need for
the message Of Easter, apparently
never was there such an outreaching
for II.
Jerusalem Redeemed at Last.
of 1919 will be unlike any other In mod
ern times--it will be celebrated in a
Jerusalem permanently freed from
Turkish misrule after centuries of Mos
| lem occupation. Easter in 1918 saw
Jerusalem in possession of the British,
General Allenby having made formal
eTtry in December of 1917, but fight
ing was in progress in all the region
round about as well as in Europe, and
the fate of the city still hung in the
balance.
In sense the Holy City is the re-
ligious capital of the world. 1t is
holy city for Christian, Jew and Mos
LEM. All three there observe the
spring festival in different ways with
different ritual, but all with elaborate
religious ceremonial. In Easter week
under normal conditions business prac-
tlcally ceases and religious ceremonial
becomes the dominant interest. To
the Moslem Jerusalem is sacred be-
cause of the tomb of Noses TO the
Jew Jerusalem is the seat of his ma.
tons ancient glory, with history
covering more than 1000 years. To
the Christian Jerusalem is the scene Of
the worlds greatest tragedy-the pas
sion, crucifiXion and resurrection Of
Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Thus Jeru-
salem has been the meeting place of
devout pilgrims from the utmost COR
ners of the world who at Easter time
have filled it's streets to overfowing.
From the year 3S5 the Christians Of
Jerusalem have observed the events of
Christ's passion, death and resurrec-
ton in complete and dramatic fash.

possible on the spot of it's occurrence.

Tariff Legislation.

A recent visitor to Washington is
quoted as fearing that the tariff has
been lost in the shuttle. He had heard
during his stay, he said, good deal
about the railroads, a merchant ma
rine, the Army and the Navy, the peace
treaty and league Of nations, and econ
omy, but not a word about a new law
for raising revenue.
Maybe this man has been expecting
too much. Maybe he is to be included
among those who when Congress as
sembled seemed to think that revenue
would be the first question presented,
and. when presented, steadily pressed
until disposed Of.
The importance Of revenue is not
open to dispute. The government has
never before needed so much money in
peace times. And as Uncle Sam pays
as he goes his wallet must be kept
filed.
Moreover, many branches Of bust
ness, need he&stening. DistusbsneAs

caused by the war are still felt. The
Underwood tariff has never been salts
factory, either as revenue or bust
ness measure. Business has from the
first wanted it revised.
But general tariff revision is now a
very large and difficult undertaking.
It was never small or easy. No re-
vision or attempted revision in the last
thirty five years has failed to consume
good deal Of time. The gathering
and digesting of statistics; the draft
ing of bill, and then debate on it.;
the long delays in conference, are cas-
lily recalled. The job has always re-
uuired hard work on the part of Con-
gress and patience on the part Of the
people.
Today, the tariff is a world question.
All the leading nations are consider
ing tariff revision. All are finding re-
vision necessary. Business disloca-
lions are worldwide. The war has so
halted or disarranged both production
and distribution that new schedules
and rates are everywhere required.
In making our revision we must take
note of what others are doing in the
same line. We are trading, and com
peting for trade, with them. They are
both our customers and competitors.
The revision now on our card, there
fore, is quite the biggest thing of the
kind that has ever fallen to our lot.
It could not possibly be done in brief
time, and when begun should by all
means be done well and thoroughly.
Revenue is a very large item in our
new obligations, while protection for
deserving industries is more impera-
tive than ever in the new pace we have
set for ourselves.
The matter is in hand, and the as
surance to business is that whatever
legislation is forthcoming must be
fashioned on the principles and the
record Of the party responsible, and
that party is the party of protection
and adequate revenue.

A Police Strike Truce.

Boston's police strike is to be called
off provided the striking policemen
are allowed to return to their posts,
unaffected by any order against their
affiliation with a union. This is in ac
eordance with suggestion by the head
Of the American Federation of Labor
urging truce to proceedings pending
the industrial conference to be held
in Washington next month. Thus,
save to the extent that the police union
movement in Boston went to the point
of an actual strike, the situation there
is similar to that in this city, where
the case is suspended by suggestion of
the President awaiting the outcome Of
the conference.
In Boston the municipal and state
authorities are unwilling to rescind the
order against union af6liation and re-
store the policemen to their places.
If the men are reinstated they will
have suffered nothing for their de-
sertion from duty. There will be no
penalty for plunging the city into law
lessness and disorder. The issue in
volved viii not have been met at all.
In the expressions Of opposition to
unionizing the police that have come
from all over the country there is no
note Of opposition to unions or to the
principle of what is known as collec-
tive bargaining. The objection to po-
lice unions rests upon distinct grounds.
There is strong sentiment that the
guardians Of municipal order should
not have Affiliations which affect their
undivided loyalty to their duty of pre-
serving order and enforcing the laws.
In Boston a grave danger has existed
that a general strike would be called
in sympathy with the police. It fol-
lows that In the event Of a general
strike of union workers in a city in
which the police were unionized the
policemen might strike in sympathy.
In Boston the fremen are unionized,
as they are here, and one of the
weapons welded by the police in their
fight for recognition was the threat to
call out the firemen, leaving the city
helpless in the face of fire danger.
This issue must be met and decided.
Postponement pending the industrial
conference may delay it in the in
terest of general labor peace, but it
is hard to conceive that there will be
"a willingness to permit the fraterntza-
ton of police forces throughout the
country with the organizations that
are maintained upon the principle that
the strike Is a permissible means of
obtaining objects, for strikes are
breeders Of disorder, and when dis
order comes the police are the first

torate-every voter keyed TO action,
and solicitous about making his bal
lot count in the equations a good
sign. In a government of, by, and for
the people, good government is iinpos-
sible unless the people turn out at
the polls and put their affairs into
the hands of men altogether compe-
tent to manage them.
Next year will bring a great test.
Our recent experiences have produced
new conditions and many changes.
The problem of reconstruction is as
difficult as comprehensive. It covers
many things, and goes far. Solved in
the proper way great benefits will re-
suit; in a defective way, we might
impose on ourselves penalty lasting
for years.
On every account, therefore, the next
national elections should witness an
outpouring of the voters on a scale
seldom recorded. There should be no
slackers anywhere. Men Of all grades
and conditions; men with or without
fortunes; men who work with their
brains, and those who work with their
hands; every man and woman entitled
to vote should 60 to the polls in
November, 1920, and express them
selves on the issues and as between
the candidates then presented. If that
is done, the mandate, whatever it may
be, will command respect because Of
the great power behind it.

While We must wait in patience and

each mood must have its day.

The People Aroused.

There is q tremendous stir in this
country. The people are very curious
and very anxious. They know a good
deal is going on. and they want par
tieulars.
Observe how they muster by the
tens of thousands, either to welcome
q hero, or listen to q discussion Of
public policies.
Gen. Pershing's presence brings
them out in great numbers, and in a
mood of great enthusiasm. They know
his record and what he stands for,
and they testify to their approval of
Al he has accomplished.
The Presidents presence is bring
ing them out in great numbers at every
stopping place. The crowds at some
places are record-breakers. He is on
Q mission which interests greatly.
Everybody has heard Of the peace
treaty. and particularly Of the league
Of nations, and everybody is eager for
the Presidents side Of the question.
Those for and those against him sit
or stand side by side, and give atten-
ton.
Will this spirit of interest and
eagerness keep up, and be manifested
next yearf Let us all hope so. A
languid electorate is bad sign. When
the people show small concern about
public men and public issues, public
business does not .c-"sper. Public
servants are apt to fall below the
mark. and the business they :sanssc,
below tho Requirements.

England and America.
A writer in the London Times sa

A writer In the London Times says:
I have never belittled the quality
of Americans work or their capacity
for mass production, either in ship
building or in any other industry. I
know the country too well for that,
but maintain that running merchant
service is a very different thing from
building ships and that our organiza-
ton and facilities and experience place
us in this vital business of operating
mercantile marine far ahead of
America
Let US concede that, at present, this
- true. The English have q superior
merchant marine organization. They
hsve many facilities for conducting sea
carrying business. They have had
barge and long experience. They are
among the most successful traders in
the world. In claiming these things
no Englishman is boasting.
Let us not be discouraged, but, in
stead, stimulated by these things. We
are q new entrant in this field in which
the English are so much at home and
have shown such extraordinary ca
pacity. Let US take close note of what
they are and what they do, and profit
"a much as possible by such observa-
ton. If we do, we should soon draw
alongside of them. Our real purpose
iS to show the way in time. Maybe
not in short time. There is much to
be done. But in all the fields we have
entered we have shown capacity and
resources, and why not also in this?
Indeed, we shall fail of our plans and
purposes if We do not score heavily as
3 world-trader and sea carrier. An
American merchant marine, second to
none, and landing American products
in every port Of importance in the
world, is in the heart and mind today
|of business America.
The Times article concludes with
|this:
~There will always be . place in the
world, perhaps . considerable place,
|for American ships and shipping COM
|panies. have never suggested other
wise, but I hold most firmly that in
with the United States the
odds are greatly in our favor and that
|n will be entirely our own fault if we
throw away the advantages that are
inherent in our position"
A little patronizing, but let that pass.
The English are certain not to throw
sway any advantages they now possess.
Father win they improve them to the
utmost. When they pull themselves
|tegether, and strike out in their cid
form for trade again, we shall see them
employing every agency at their COM
mand in an effort to make themselves
masters of the situation; and in doing
30 they will not only be within their
rights, but obeying the law of business
and that Of human nature.
Let US also improve any advantages
We possess, and try to create others
n We 60 along. We are embarked
upon a great enterprise, and upon it
much depends. Failure is, Of course,
out of the question. We shall not fail.
But our success should be SO very pro.
nounced that all our rivals will con-
eeive greater respect for US, and
thereby increase our respect for our
selves.
