AIDING THE CRIMINALs.

When 1t is disclosed by an assistant district attorney of New York that it is possible for crooks to obtain permits to carry firearms 1t shows not only how eheaply some officials are willing to sell themselves to those who are bent on rob- bery or even murder.
 For long time it has been recognized that the law against the possession of firearms in New York without a permit made it difficult for people to protect themselves against criminals, while crim- inals willing to take a change were able to carry on their operations using fire arms to hold up, frighten and even kill people and in a great many instances get away free. While the suppression Of the firearms was intended for the pur- pose of reducing the number of deaths through the use of such weapons. eifer accidentally or Intentionally it has been realized on more than one occasion how much it worked to the advantage of the criminals.
 But the latest disclosure to the effec' that one justice of the peace has issuee 200 and possibly 500 permits for the car rying of firearms, many of which were in blank and thus have gotten into the bands of those who were willing to pay 6 high premium for them, plainly show how insecure is the protection that tn, public is getting from this law and how much more consideration Is given t, the fees obtained from such permits thar to the carrying out of the real purpos' of the law by those to whom the author .fy is given.

ARMFNIA,S POSITION.

From all indications, while the three countries which have been making plans Tor their own spheres of influence in Tur- key were concerned with their own in- terests, the welfare of Armenia appears to have been sidetracked. While it's po- tition of danger from the Turks was bad enough it now appears to be at the mer- " both of the Turks and the bolsh..viki There is little choice between the twr and certainly it is a most undesirable posi- ton 10 be nenaced by both.
 There is thus much importance attach I'd 10 the efforts that will be made at the meeting of the league assembly next week to determine which country, or which group of countries will be named b protect and help this republic From sll indications it is a task which none is rocking but if it is real service in behalf bf mistreated and downtrodden humanity hat is sought the opportunity to render h exists in the case of Armenia
 The United States has a keen interest In the welfare of [ se people. It was eesired by Armenia and the other coun. tries that this country should undertake to direct the affairs of the new republic but it meant service in a part of the world where the United States has nc desire or intention of sending an army As a government proposition it woult mean dipping into the affairs of Europe and the near east in a manner which i. not approved. The task belongs to the nations of Europe. If the protection O Armenia can be secured through the ser vices of a single nation it would be pref trable. If it cannot there is neverthe less a duty that rests upon the European powers, or some number of them actinj under authority from the league of na tioas to see that Armenia like the othe countries gets square deal.
 Armenia has waited and suffered for
 long time. The situation there is get ting worse instead of better and tn Geneva meeting cannot fail to make som definite decision relative to the safe guarding of those people.

CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING NOV. 9th, 1920

ARMIsTICE DAY,

In view of the action taken by state and municipal authorities as well as by business houses there promises to be general observance today of Armistice day. There are none who cannot recall most vfvidly the manner in which the news of the signing of the armistice was received in this country. There is none who cannot picture how it must have been received by those who were on the hattlefr0nts Or those who were waiting to he called for service there. It meant the end of the worlds greatest struggle in which this country played a vital part and what could be more fitting than the proper celebration of the anniversary of this forerunner of peace!
 The second anniversary of the signing of the armistice finds the world well on its way in it's reconstruction work, and the opportunity is presented this year for the greater part of those who partci- pated in any way in the service to take part in keeping green the memory of that day which signalled the end of the hard struggle and paved the way for the home coming.
 IL will be a day that will serve to re- call, if in fact any special occasion is re- ouired for such thing. the months that were spent in the service of their country whether at lsome or abroad the tremen- dous sacrifices that were made, the pleas ant as well as the horrible experiences the lessons of loyalty and at the sam, time the fond recollections of those whc through their supreme sacrifice had to be left in France.
 That there will be q large participa ton in the parade is to be expected Ii Is a time for re-echoing the joy ant thanksgiving that were felt and express Cd two years ago. It would be impossfbl, to reenact such demonstrations but th American people are not going to forge them. There should not only be a larg participation by those most directly con hected with the significance of the da. but by those for whom their service wa rendered in the defending and protectio Bf our rights and liberties.

CHILD TRAINING AT HOME
Reading the Signs By Carolyn Shervin Bailey, Author Wonder Stories

Wonder Stories
 The Primary children did not want ts play with the bAs and girls from Mill were in the same class. Odd little for eign lads and lassies there were, wearing fur caps and scarlet shirts and orange colored scarfs. But they did not seem to know how to play and there was something worse than that about them.
 The Mill Street children don't know how to live in our town" said the others. 'only see what they do"
 Maud saw one Saturday afternoon when she took her roller skates to the park. There, right beside a sign that read Keep Off the Grass sat Santa, the little Italian girl picking daisies.
 "oh, please don't do that, Santa" Maud said. ''Tke sign says not to. You ccnle with me and l will show you a free daisy field.
 Santa looked at the sign She touch- ed the letters with her fingers and then she smiled at Maud as she joined her on the sidewalk and the two hurried off They had beautiful afternoon and On Monday Maud gathered the Primary children together and told them secret about the Mill Erect children. Then such nice things began to happen!

THE TROLLEY PROBLEM.

One of the important matters that win occupy the attention of the general as- sembly at the coming session will be that concerning the trolley roads and the jit- neys. It has been made evident for a long period of time that the trolley roads were being subjected to competition which was not just since there were ne such burdens or regulations placed upon the jitneys as upon the trolley lines and yet it was along the very routes which their heavy overhead charges that the jitneys carried on their business.
 With the trolley roads pinched by in- sufficient revenue their inability to pro- vide more adequate service was increased by the further reduction in their revenue by the patronage which the jitneys took away. The onesidedness of the situa tion made 1t impossible for the trolleys te keep service and equipment up to re- quirements and it made it likewise ifnpos. sible to pay it's taxes to the state or te avoid deficits. Changes in rates, fare limits and schedules have, as the result of the latest raise and the restriction ot jitneys by most cities, helped to improve
  giving them square deal it will be pos sible for the electric roads where there is any business at all to provide the service that is demanded.
 But that doesn't determine the matter of taxation and the other large expense. required of the trolley companies fol bridge and street maintenance. Here again it is recognized what a burden o expense has to be shouldered by the trol leys which does not fall upon the jitne, drivers It is only proper that this ques ton involving common carriers should b' given the attention of the legislature tha there may be proper consideration showl to all concerned and in this connection i seems not improbable that much atten ton will be given to the recemnenda tions which have been made by the stat chamber of commerce for dealing witt this problem

THE SHIPPING BOARD CHARGES.

Great have been the wastes connected with the wartime activities 1f this ceun- try and such of them as are being con- tinued by the government. Due regard has been paid to ;he fact that large ex- penditvres were necessitated by condi- tions but it is outside of war contracts and even sidcc the war ended that some of the great inroads into the funds Of the country have been made. It is as if it was considered that the people of the country had poured their money into a large bin an6 it was the business of cer tain ones to sec how fast they could dis pose of it without regard for what was given in return or what was accomplish ed thereby.
 This is again bror ght to the attention of the country 5y the charges which wers made before the house committee irlves- 1 tisating the shir ping board operations in which graft and bribery were claimed to be responsible for the loss of millions
 of dollars, and that inefficiency and fa- voritism played conspicuous part in l contributing to huge wastes.
 From what two former employees oi i the shipping board had to say regarding ]
 appear that this important federal board playing sHch a conspicuous part in con nection with our merchant marine, ha'
 been conducting it's affairs in anythins
