E CITY PLAMNLMe,

HE nomination Saturday evening by the Democratic
I city convention of William w. Conway and l.
Clyde Morris to be representatives of the Democratic party
on the municipal board of directorsin all probability settles
he question Of the personnel of the new city government,
and the minds of the people will now naturally tum 10 spec
ulation regarding which set of duties will likely fall to the
various directors.
Viewed from this angle most citizens who are anxious to
see the town governed as efficiently as possible will find
cause to regret that neither party gave any thought to secur-
ing technical ability for the so called outside positions-thc
water and sewers and the streets departments. Round pegs
IN square holes have cost the taxpayers of American mu-
inequalities many times what the recent war cost them, and
tairmont has been no exception to this form of waste.
However, the situation is not one over which there is any
need to wax pessnmistc. The finance department naturally
will fall to MIR. Davis, one of the Republican nominees,
who is permanently qualified for the position, and the other
directors are all men who will give a good account of them
selves however they find themselves placed. And this
would especially be true if the City Planning commission
movement were speeded up so that a tentative general pro-
gram could be laid down at an early date for the guidance
of the city government.
With such a chart before them the new directors could
not make any capital mistakes. They could depend upon
Il just as the officers of large American corporations depend
upon the policy programs which are formulated by the
officers and approved by the directors 10 guide the concerns

SIGNIFICANT RESIGNATION.

G. j. KONNENKAMP. president of the Commercial
~ Telegraphers' union, has announced his resignation, for
reasons that are purely personal, according to his statement.
That could be true without in any wise robbing the resigna-
ton Of a certain moral value which it is to be hoped will
not be lost upon other labor leaders who fall into the error
Of starting things that they cannot finish.
Konnenkamp as the official head of the commercial
telesraphers of the country recently called a strike the uli-
mate failure of which was apparent within twenty-fouf
hours after it started. The public has not been Informed
as yet who was responsible for this strategic blunder, but
Konncnkamp's r%esigatiOn gives rise to some interesting SUI
misses.
If labor leaders who call i'll advised strikes should uni
formly lose their leadership there would be a noticeable
decrease in the amount Of that kind of labor disturbance.
Strikes in large unions like that of the telegraphers are
usually authorized by votes of the membership. but it is a
fact that the way the members vote depends upon the infor-
nation and advice they get from their general officers.
Somebody in the Commercial Telesraphers' union blum
dered, or the recent strike never would have been called,
and if Konnenkamp is getting out of office on account of
this it is a sign that his judgment is improving.

from an economic standpoint but shows a lameniable fall
,te upon the part Of those who should lead IN such matters
to show cooperation m the development Of the industries
therefore. to the further proposal of the Chemical society
to secure the repeal of the special clause of the tariff act
which makes it possible to import German chemical glass
ware free of duty. This clause has had a most peuicious
effect upon the development of this branch of the glass and
porcelain business in this country. In order to make abso-
luteiy certain the entire independence of this country from
Germany in this particular the Chemical society believes
that the free entry of German goods should be discontinued.
The patriotism of the battle field is not the only kind
there is, by any means. 1t is about the only kind that is
much written about, but much could be said about the
practical patriotism of patronizing home industries and fos-
terins movements which tend to make a completely indie
pendent economic unit of the United States. The Amer
lean Chemical society is on the right track. and there ought
10 be much more of this sort of thing running through all
the industries. Americans should buy foreign made goods
only when American made goods cannot be obtained.

PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM

out in the statement that there may have been a time when
German chemical glassware and porcelain was superior 10
that tuned out in this country, but that has not been the case
for a number of years. Yet the users of such wares, largely
through habit, have continued to buy from German manu-
~facufers.

The United States sent an expedition to take posses
sion of Vera Cruz in 1914 not because men in American
uniforms were attacked and robbed upon Mexican soil,
but because the Mexican government. then presided over
by President Huerta, refused to disavow the act. When
this is remembered there will be less inclination to be-
come excited over the recent attack upon American sail
ors who were fishing in Mexican waters. There was a
time when almost any Mexican president might have
been inclined to assume a defiant attitude against the
United States, but not so since the great war. 1t is
scarcely probable that Mexico will refuse to make ample
amends for the Temesi river incident.
