The Composer of "Robin Hood

Whatever the musical critics NAV
decide in the course of the years as
to the larger artistic labors of Repi-
maid de Koven, there can be no de-
tracing from the complete and
lasting success Of his "Robin Hood !"
Writing light opera ought to be a
simple thing, it might be thought.
and the annual output ought to in
clude good percentage of true
music. AS a matter of fact. the
light opera that is good enough to
last from decade to decade, after the
ephemeral tinsel Of contemporary
fame has passed, is rarer than the
rare--far more infrequent than good
opera of heavier mold.
There is Sullivan and there is no
one else, one is tempted to say. Ger
tainly there has been no composer
who had the light touch so perfectly
and used 1t with so infallible q sense
OF humor. Yet it is in the group
with these classics that "Robin
Hood" bolongs---even il below them
IN rank Il Is one 11 the fsw eop.

how, except by clumsy and impos-
sible barter, is it possible without the
machinery of capitalism to feed the
hungry Socialists Of Europe? Our
radical friends think, but scarcely
deeply enough.
Thrift converted into credits not
only relieves the famine stricken,
but more. 1t smooths the way to
needed improvements if the earth is
to provide the means Of living for
new millions. Thrift is paymaster
of the army which works on better
ments. The man who digs canal or
builds bridge or dredges a harbor
is sustained from the contributions
Of non-spenders. Socialist and anti
capitalistic theory makes no clear
proposal as to how workers who toll
for the coming years are to be fed
and clothed. May it be said once
more that our radical friends think,
but too specifically?
So work and save; not merely for
yourself, although you are entitled
to the fruits of your abstentions, but
for others-to aid the great bust
ness of reconstruction and to make
the planet better habitation.

Mind or Inatinct2
To the Editor of The Tribune ,

10 the Editor Of The Tribune. :.
Sir: In yesterdays issue of The

the question, "Do dogs have minds or

IS, "They have BOTH" And l believe
Mr.. John Burroughs will back me.

the dog to be the most highly developed
OF all animals, next to mankind. The
dogs, like the human race, vary in DEGREE.
The highly developed, or educated, dog.
thinks, while the lower order is gov
erned by instinct only.
Having had dogs around me nearly
all my life, I could give you many in
stances to prove my assertion; but, per-
haps, the following case in point will
answer the double question: A neiphbor
OF mine in the country brought dog
to his home in his car at midnight. a
distance of some eight or ten miles. The
following morning the dog made up his
mind he did not want to stay there, and
rs ne could not have seen the country

the night before he started off, shifting
the air, and in loss than an hour was
again in his old home.

Goodness knows whether it will ever
be in America as long as any sing

1t is large and lasting debt Of
pleasure that is owing to Reginald

DR.. Grants Right to Talk

The question involved in the con-
troversy raging about the head of DR..
Percy Stickney Grant, of the Church
of the Ascension, is not whether he
has spoken truly or wisely in re-
gard to the deportations of the
"Reds" and kindred topics.
AS to these he uttered manifest
foolishness. No similarity seems
traceable between the cases of the
Pilgrim Fathers and of Alexander
Berkman and Emma Goldman. The
followers of John Robinson, leaving
England, first went to Holland.
When the atmosphere there was
found uncongenial they did not pro-
claim bombs should be used to COM
pei the Dutch to accept their views.
Their own sense of equity led them
to journey Onto seek wilderness
where they could be true to their
own conceptions and not invade the
equal rights of--others. The Nav
fiower's passengers left Holland vol
untariiy-never sought to place ex-
plosives in the homesteads of their
hosts.
The issue is not whether DR.
Grant correctly reads history. but
whether he may read it as he
pleases. AS to this there is moi
much real division Of opinion. An
overwhelming majority of Ameri.
cans recognize that liberty cannot
be granted and withheld in the same
breath. If there is to be government
through and by public opinion folly
must be left free to disport itself
Sound principles have seamy side
1t is impossible to trim without en-.
dangering the whole fabric. So the
rule Of the law is that the on]y
proper limits to free speech are re-
sponsibility for words uttered and
avoidance Of the Bolshevist doc
trlne that person who does not
agree with your private ideas con-
cerning government should forth
with be shot or intimidated.
DR.. Grant does not appear to
have transgrcssed these limits. He
is strangely tolerant Of speech sup
preston in Russia, and thus involves
himself In what most of his fellow
citizens regard AZ absurdity. But
such strabismus is no rare human
weakness.
Those show small faith in their
fellows or in the power Of right to
make It's way who trcmblc at the
whispers Of error. The mood Of
Milton Is bettcr---the Milton who

Clenaenceau

Clemenceau's defeat by Paul De-
schanel in the French parliamentary
caucus comes as great surprise
Outside the political groups in Paris
nobody was prepared to believe that
the greatest statesman France pro.
duced during the war period, the
Father of Victory" couldn't have
any honor he wanted merely for the
asking.
Perhaps he was too sanguine in
allowing himself to be put forward
as a candidate for the Presidency
He made scores Of new enemies in
the Chamber while he was Premier.
He had been making enemies all his
life. Until the peace treaty was
promulgated he had a check on
them. He held his own to the end
in the old Chamber. But the new
one felt freer to follow it's feelings
and, perhaps, to vent ancient
grudges.
Clemenceau played a lone hand as
Premier. He called few men of
strength into his Cabinet, and his
former rivals have been working
quietly for many months to under
mine him. His rejection will thus
not be accepted as a verdict on his
crowning work as the savior of
France-the man who came at last
to the head of the government with
a policy expressed in three words
II make war"
Clemenceau retains his fame
That is imperishable. Clemenceau
is sage and a cynic. He said on
armistice day: 81 ought to die now
Then, at least, they would give me
a funeral"
He stayed on and saw France
through the pitfalls of the peace
conference. After that, election to
the ornamental Office of President
could mean, at best, only gilded
retirement.

Alhuistic Thrift

In the exhortations to practice
thrift it has been common to empha-
size the personal and selfish benefits
thereof.
The advice of Poor Richard and
Samuel Smiles was pointed by illus
trations of how the thrifty individ-
ually prospered. The world is popu-
lated in the main by those who do
not save, or save little-who prefer
the satisfaction of present desires
to providing for the satisfaction of
future desires. In such a world he
who refrains from consumption
possesses balance on which in
terest is paid, has a deposit against
which drafts, redeemable in work
or goods, can be drawn. Thrift as
thus presented is an ignoble virtue.
akin to the meanness Of miserliness
But thrift takes on a new aspect
IS seen to be social blessing. In
such q crisis as the present one
there must be overproduction in
countries Of normal life to meet the
dearth in countries whose life is
abnormal. The granaries of joseph
must be full if his brethren are not
to starvc. And under modern con-
dltions there must be a basis of
credit to carry the burden of de-
ferred payments. The person who
sends package of food abroad SAYS
nc is feeding babies. So also NAV
ne who spends less than what he
earns, puts his surplus in a bank
which buys foreign securities. whose
purchase in turn creates a fund
against which the foreigner draws
drafts to pay for food. 1t is the
fashion Of many to decry capital, but

The Radicals Tragedy
Why He Fought the War and Why
He Is Disheartcned

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The tragedy of the radical is not.
as you suppose, that he "stood outside
the stream of our national life at it's
most desperate and stirring hour" for
IN many cases he didn't. On the con-
trary, he generally bore his part in the
patriotic obligations of the war, and
(barring pacifists and enemy aliens) he
entered into all it's noble emotions
and some of its ignoble ones as we'll
No; the tragedy of the radical arises
on quite other grounds. AS I see and
feel it, his tragedy--his disappoint-
ment, disillusion and discouraeement-
proceeds from the bitter fact that, hav-
ing gladly shared in the sacrifices of
war waged to dethrore autocracy and
to make the world safe for democracy.
he now finds his own beloved country
given over to reign of terror charac-
terized by safe profteering, senseless
fear of the people and all manner of
stupid and pernicious persecution and
oppression incident to that fear by
officials in the service of reaction.
He saw with dismay the Fourteen
Points frttered away at Paris. He
sees the President entangled in cost
ly and cruel war on RUSSIA war car
ried on by him without constitutional
authority and in violation of the cher
ished principle of elf-determination Of
peoples, yet without effective protest
from either Congress or press. He sees
the Department of Justice in spectacular
raids, rounding up thousands of Door
and ignorant aliens for deportation
without trial-persons who, in many
cases certainly and in most cases proba-
bly,, have not committed or even contem-
plated any crime, but whose political
opinions are judged unsound by the Of
ficial raiders. He sees obscure men SEN
fenced to long terms in prison for pub
fishing pamphlet which the minority
opinion of the Supreme Court boldly
declared they had as much right to
print as you or I have to print the
Federal Constitution. He sees the fun
damental constitutional guarantees of
freedom of speech and assembly openly
violated by Governors, Mayors, judges
and police officials whenever the slight
est pretext offers. He sees duly elected
members of the New York State Assem-
bly, arbitrarily suspended not for any
unlawful act or for any legal disability,
but solely for political reasons. He sees
Berger twice bounced from the House
and Newberry embraced in the Senate.
And, worst of all, he sees the daily press
with but few honorable exceptions
either blindy indifferent to what is
going on or applauding most of the proc
esses of official tyranny, the invasions
OF liberty. the perversions of law. the
denials of justice and the violations
of the Constitution, which, if we do not
soon come to our senses and put an end
to them, must inevitably breed bloody
revolution.
This is the tragedy of radical who
has voted for every President elected in
thirty-six years save two; whose entire
savings are in Liberty and Victory
bonds, who was not permitted to go him.

League Problem Grasped

In his brief stay in Washington the
British statesman saw representatives
of all parties and of all shades of feel
ing. He recognized clearly and grasped
sympathetically the fact that opposi-
tion to the league of nations covenant,
as submitted to the Senate, was not
primarily or exclusively partisan, and
it is conjectured here that following
Grey's return there will be no repeti-
tion by Lloyd George of the statement
that politics had produced the failure
OF the treaty on this side of the water.
Many talks with many Republicans
gave Grey clear view of the position
of the champions of the reservations in
the Senate. Turned aside from the
original purpose Of his visit, the for
mer Secretary of Foreign Affairs took
Up the necessary task of analyzing and
appraising American feeling. And it is
no secret in this city that one of the
controlling reasons for the viscount's
return rather sooner than had been ex-
pected was his feeling that the true
situation in America was not in the
least understood in Europe.
That the British Ambassador be-
lieved in league of nations, was con-
vinced that such an international coun-
Gil, had it existed, would have been Of
infinite value in the critical days Of
July, 1914, was clear to all who talked
with him. But this personal conviction
was never pressed, nor did Grey at any
time undertake to become a protagonist
of the league of nations or a champion
OF any form of covenant.
New-York tribune., 1920-01-17
An Immediate Change


Throughout all his public life the
British Ambassador has been a warm
friend and admirer of . the United
States, and this admiration was greatly
increased by his brief stay on this side
of the ocean. His return to England
will, therefore, it is confidently believed,
contribute to an immediate change in
the British official view of the Ameri-
can situation.
1t is interesting to note here the i'm
preston that Grey made of simplicity,
frankness and raightforwardness. He
gave his confidence to not few Ameri-
can newspaper men; he talked to them
with an absence of diplomatic circum-
New-York tribune., 1920-01-17

locuton which won immediate and last
ing respect
The question as to whether Grey will
return an Ambassador is open, but
there is growing impression that he
will not. Present gossip points toward
Lord Redding, who was here for brief
time during the war and is understood
to be willing to return. On the other
hand, Grey told many Washington
friends that he intended to return to
America, and left the impression that
he would come as private citizen.
Grey's influence in London will ma
terially contribute to improving Anglo
American relations, for it is unmis-
taxable here that there has been in
creasing irritation, notably in cer-
tain Republican quarters, over Lloyd
Georges several times repeated aIlega-
tion that partisan politics alone are re-
sponsible for the deadlock over the
treaty. 1t can be pretty safely guessed
that this is not Grey's view, and he is
too good an observer not to perceive
the harm that has been already done
by this charge, and the greater harm
that might follow further, harping on
this string.
New-York tribune., 1920-01-17
Visit a Success

1t Is an odd circumstance that while
outside Of Washington Grey's visit has
excited little comment, in Washington
he has quietly and unobtrusively, but
no less potently, been felt. He has
escaped the slightest hint of rneddline
with American political questions and
domestic debates, but he has invited
and obtained from the leaders on both
sides of the Senate, as we'll as from
Republicans and Democrats outside of
official circles, views which will en-
able him to clarity British opinion on
the American question.
Like the French Ambassador, M. JUS
serand, Lord Grey has been able to pre-
serve and increase the friendship be-
tween his own and the American people
by methods which are strikingly in
contrast with those employed by Count
Won Bernstorff, with temporary success.
but with ultimately fatal consequences.
With Grey, as with Jusserand. the
British Embassy, like the French, has
at no time been a center of intrigue
or headquarters of manipulation.
The result has been unmistakable.
There are no partisan or personal
shades of feeling about Grey's all too
brief stay in Washington. 1t has been
success, despite the limitations i'm
posed by the Presidents illness. 1t
has materially contributed to lessening
measure of evaporation at certain
British official utterances, and the gen.
eral belief at the Capitol is that Amer
ica's real feeling will be adequately
and alphabetically preserved with
Lord Grey back in London.
