SLOW PAY.

1t is said that while 500 Americans
have been murdered in Mexico since
the overthrow of President Diaz, COM
pensation has been made in but one
case.
Bullets caused the death of John
McManus when Villa and Zapata
forces were in the capital city. Sec
rotary Bryan sent word privately to
Villa that the time had come to prove
friendliness and that reparation would
help to still the demand in this coun-
try for intervention to protect Amer
leans. Villa at once had $4,000 in
gold paid to the relatives of McManus.
No other claim for the death of a
foreigner has been paid. Madero had
an allowance" made of three million
pesos because of the slaughter of 800
Chinese, but the treasury was empty.
None of the money was paid to China
Urgent representations" made by
the department of state to Carranza
have brought no results. The Mexl-
can government says that claims
should have been filed with Mexico
for adjustment. .. The state depart
ment warns claimants against such
proceeding. But neither method Sc
cures action.
The widows of the murdered men
may die with the hope that great
grandchildren will receive compensa-
ton if a United States administration
ever makes an ultimatum, provided
the league of nations does not refuse
to let this country decide upon its
own course.

CHEAPER FOOD POSSIBLE.

The special house committee of
congress investigating war eXpendi-
lures has brought TO light the fact
that the war department has many
millions of pounds OF cured and
canned meats on hand and millions
of cans of vegetables which is doesn't
need, but which it IS making no eff
fort to sell.
The war department officials, it APP
pears, are very apprehensive lest they
do something that will break the
present high prices of foodstuffs
They are exceedingly tender of the
market, and hesitate to do anything
that will make living cheaper.
1t was demanded by the army that
put prices up. Why shouldn't the sur
PLUS now held by the army assist in
putting prices down? OF course. no
one wants the dealers to suffer, but
if the army would begin a gradual
filtering in of its stocks, they could
be absorbed, and no one would lose
money thereby. But the public would
get the benefit of the reduction.
1t is true that food dealers would
not make so much on a falling mar
ket. but they have already reaDed
handsome profit on advances. and by
careful management they can con-
tinue to make good profits on a lower
level Of prices, once a normal price
level is reached, the better it will be
for everybody.
The consumer has been carrying a
heavy burden. and there appears to
be no prospect that it will be light
ened soon, unless the government be-
gins to unload its surplus foodstocks.
A reduction in the cost of food
stuffs would do much toward quiet
ing unrest in many of us.

WEDNESDAY........JULY 16, 1919
LET THE PRESIDENT EXPLAIN.

The Journal printed yesterday
morning a dispatch from the Ne"
York World correspondent at Wash
ington, which purports TO give in
side" information regarding the pres
ident's views on the treaty and the
league of nations. The dispatch says
the president purposely refrained
from dealing in particulars, when he
addressed the senate, but that he had
held subsequent interview with the
democratic leadcrs-Attorney General
Palmer, Senators Jones of New MeXi-
co, Gerry. King. Pomerene. Thomas,
Pittman, Phelan and Walsh of Mon
tana. to whom he explained the in
side"
The great trouble with the presi-
dent is that he has been absolutely
secretive in nearly everything that he
has done. Although he has to deal
with a republican majority in the
senate, during his entire administra-
ton he never has asked republican
senator to the White House. except
when he held the famous conference
on his tlr"t return from france.
Judged by the men he summoned to
the White House conference on his
last return from Europe, he seems to
regard the treaty as a democratic
document ana he Is trusting to the
minority to secure the required two
thirds votes 10 put 1t across.
1t must be the first task Of the
president to explain these documents

to face such charges as well as the
women, in order that magistrates may
be guided accordingly and that JUS
tice may be done.
BESIDES. it is most deplorable after
all the campaigns waged and all the
public cutlery, that as yet real Crmi-
nails and innocent girls are indis-
criminately thrown together in de-
tentiOn jails before their cases are
finally settled and their innocence or
guilt is established
When, OH when, Will We wake up
to the Importance Of separating first
offenders from habitual Violators, so
that the good girl, who even makes a
first mistake, gets the chance she
needs so badly, to put her on the right
road and thus save her. even from
herself?
The only way that the individual
and society at large may be benefited
is to enact such legislation as VIII
guard our girls, and in order to knen
them from getting into the criminal
classes, to invoke the ounce of pre-
vention rather than the pound of
cure.
