Mrs. Hardwick Better;
Her Maid May Die

Atlanta, Ga, May 1.-Former
United States Senator Thomas w.
Hardwick, of Georgia, who Tuesday
received a bomb which exploded, in
juring Mrs. Hardwick and manning
a negro maid, said last night he was
convinced the attempt on his life
was due to his efforts as chairman
of the Senate immigration Commit
tee to restrict immigration.
Mrs. Hardwick is said to be rest
ing comfortably, although she re-
ceived several painful cuts and
burns. Ethel Williams, the negro
maid, who had both hands blown off
and the sight of one eye destroyed
by the explosion, probably will die.

Of her military preparations made it
seem to the foreign observer improb-
able, if not impossible, that she would
venture to take up the challenge which
her enemies cast at her feet. All avail
able resources must be prepared and
organized in time of peace with the
view to their being used if and when
occasion required"
Soldiers and sailors are nowhere fig
uring on the early coming of the mil
lennium. They know what war is and
what human nature is. They likewise
know the size and difficulties of their
tasks when. war comes. Hence, they
want to see their countries prepared
for war. They are not, as is now and
then alleged, advocates of war for
selfish professional reasons, and on
that account dangerous men to be in
charge of full fighting equipments.
1t is always best to listen to men
qualified to teach; and it is especially
to listen to trained and dis
soldiers and sailors now on
a subject foremost in interest through
out the world. The value of prepared
ness for war has just been demon
strated, and an appalling toll taken
for unpreparedness. The story of
great country caught in time of
an adequate Navy is of so astonishing
and distressing a character that the
utmost pains should be taken to make
certain that it will never be repeated.

Now that there is to be an appeal

order of the day-why not a number

was crowded to the limit. The dispu-
tants carried themselves admirably

the subject. Each made his meaning

common. Their differences were sharp,
but not stated sharply. They met as

President Pessoa of Brazil.

The visit to Washington of Presi-
dent Pessoa of Brazil is an event of
exceptional importance in itself, and
especially in view of the fact that he
is making his way homeward from at
tendance upon the peace conference at
Paris, to which his country sent him
as delegate. DR.. Pessoa was named as
member of the Brazilian delegation
while serving as federal senator, and
it was during his service in Paris that
he was elevated to the chief magis-
tracy of his country.
Few men have attained high Office
in the southern republics with such a
record of continuous and merited ad-
vancement as DR.. Pessoa. When his
country changed its form of govern
ment he was barely past his youth, and
rapidly won his way to the front of
active life by his undeniable merits.
At the age of twenty-six he was elected
deputy to the Brazilian congress.
Before he was thirty-three he was made
minister of justice and public instruc-
ton. Other Offices have been assigned
to him and have been administered
ably. His advancement to the presi-
dency was in recognition of his ex-
ceptional qualifications.
The career of this capable chief
executive, now on his way home to as
sumo the post to which his countrymen
have elected him in his absence abroad,
is an example of the development Of
pan-Ameriea in the lines of progress
sive government. DR.. Pessoa is a type
Of the citizen of the southern hemi-
sphere who is bringing that part of
the world into line with the most ad-
vanced nations. Untouched by the
ravages of war, these countries are
now in position to score marked de-
velopment, and it is through the utili-
zation of the services of such highly
competent and broadly developed men
as President Pessoa that they will
achieve their highest success.
1t is unfortunate that DIR. Pessoa's
visit to Washington is made while the
President Of the United States is him
self abroad. But these officials have
met in Paris and in the absence of
President Wilson the Brazilian guest
will be properly welcomed and re-
ceived and entertained, to assure him
of the cordial good will and the warm
appreciation of the American people
both of himself and the country he
has so brilliantly served and which
now has so highly honored him, and
in whose prosperity and rapid advance
ment the citizens of the United States
have greatly rejoiced.

Doubtless the Senate will sustain the

and make plain what is necessary on
our part to play our part successfully
in the world drama
Soon after must come legislation on
the same subject for the fiscal year
beginning July l, 1920. And light on
that should issue from what is now
done. On both accounts, therefore, the
legislation now in hand will have an
important bearing.
Gen. Leonard Wood has just spoken
in this town on the necessity of CON
tinued preparedness for war now that
this country has achieved prepared
ness. In the same strain Field Marshal
Sir Douglas Haig has just spoken
words of advice to his countrymen.
This is taken from a report Of the ad-
dress he delivered the other day when

lance their authors attach to the theme.
Joint debates would bring into the
arena men not in Office, but worthy
of the highest Office, and, therefore,
with messages worthy Of attention. As
IN the Boston case, senator could be
matched against man not in politics.
Or a representative could be so match
ed. Educators, lawyers in private life,
fnanciers and business men with the
gift of speech, would thus have oppor-
tunity to give their views on a ques-
tion second to none in existence to-
day.
In this way the people would benefit
from a wide sweep Of opinion publicly
expressed. And the wider the better
The less politics introduced the bet
ter. The question is not political in
any proper sense. If the treaty is
ratified by the Senate and the country
thus pledged to the league, the terms
of the covenant will be binding, no
matter which party wins at the polls
next year.
We may, however, expect politics to
figure to some extent. It is very diff
cult to keep politics out of question
of such magnitude, and especially
when a presidential election is ap-
preaching and preliminary campaign
work is already in progress. At such
a time everything is brought under
tribute, and made to do duty toward
winning the greatest prize known to
our great institutions.

Nearing the Decision.

While the prospect appears bright
that the Germans will sign the peace
treaty next Monday-if an extension
Is not granted to permit referendum
this is inevitably an anxious time.
Should the enemy refuse to sign the
war will be automatically renewed.
American troops, with others of the
allied forces, will advance further into
Germany. There will be more fight
ing and more lives will be lost and
more men will be wounded Suffering
must ensue. However certain and
swift the victory over the greatly
Weakened foe, this resumption of the
war must surely cost many lives.
Yet every token points to acceptance
Of tie treaty. The fall of the Ebert
6eheidemann government is taken as
m evidence that those members of it
Who are unwilling to accept the treaty
feel that they are not supported by
the popular sentiment, and, having COM
mitted themselves too far against sig
nature, are seeking to escape the re-
sponsibility and to shift it to other
shoulders.
Nothing further has developed on
the score Of the suggested referendum.
No formal application has been made
for postponement to permit a vote.
Meanwhile the preparations for imme-
date resumption of hostilities con-
tinue. Everything is ready to begin
the advance as soon as the word is
given, which may, however, not be in
SANITY upon the expiration of the time
limit. Yet from the hour of o'clock
in Paris next Monday If the treaty has
not been signed Germany is in a state
Of war, with the armistice automatical-
" ended and with an overwhelming
force not merely on her borders, but
ON her soil within a short distance of
her vital centers.
Probably nobody knows better the
certainty Of utter disaster resulting
from refusal to sign the treaty than the
German leaders at Weimar and Ber-
Lin. Yet some of them are urging re-
fusal in the face of this inevitable ca
tastrophe. They have perhaps a no.
ton that the allies may not hold to-
SethsT, or that Germany may gain
strength from some other quarter, or
that the German people will rise in
greater might e-en than before to re-
sist the invader. They are wrong in
al their speculations if they so figure.
Tie sllies will not divide, Germany
cannot gain strength from outside, and
the German people, if united to a man
In defense, could not resist the might
u the allied invasion. Refusal to sign
would be suicidal and fortunately it
w6sM now seem that the majority of
the German people and their repre-
sentstiyes in the council and their
executives in Office realize this fact.
