Gloomy Sundays

The Lords Day Alliance, with
other allied organizations, views
with alarm the worldly manner in
which the general public observes
the Sabbath. 1t would restore the
oldtlme Sunday, on which one spent
the' day, when not at church, at
home meditating religious matters.
To this end Sunday movies, base.
ball, excursions and similar gate
ways to the primrose path are to
be abolished and transportation re-
strlcted to carrying people between
church and home.
But how will the public, which,
although unconsultcd, still counts
for something, receive these pro-
nouncements? 1t is true that prohibi-
ton was largely imposed from above.
But sports and excursions are far
less generally considered vicious than
alcohol. Virtue as a strict Sabba-
tartan would have her would no
longer be maiden in white robes.
but that lean, long nosed, black
clothed, lugubrious parsonage which
Puritanism is TO its enemies.
Enforcement would present grave
Problems 1t is hard enough to en-
force prohibition, and how could we
begin to enforce these new laws?
Half the United States would have
TO be set 10 watch the other half.
Finally, there is saying that
among the idlc and the unoccupied
Satan finds many willing scrvitors.
A Western Mayor, whose city some
times had Sunday baseball while
sometimes 1T did not, once discovered
on examining the records that the
arrests for intoxication and other
misdemeanors we're much less nu-
mcrous when several thousands in
remote part Of tle town gathered

Lenine's Joke

Lenine is quoted as having said in
q speech to his fellows delivered
since he said farewell to Washing
ton D. Vanderlip:
"In signing the concession which we
have granted to the Americans we
make acute the relations between
America and Japan. We profit by
this, as by other similar conflicts be-
tween our enemies. Our concessions
70 foreign capitalists are in reality
moral and material victory for US"
Pleasant reading is this for Wash
ington D. as he starts out to interest
his fellow citizens in investing in
his concessions. He has been sa-
luted as one clever enough to get the
Russian dictator to accept him at
his self-valuation and by sunshine
talk to get him to hand over a great
empire in Siberia--a dominion some
what chilly, it is true, but big enough
to be rated an empire. And behold
Lenine was using his sleeve to laugh
in--boasted that he had succeeded
in getting the fingers Of Vanderlip
into the hair of our Japanese friends? :?

Police emporizing

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The Thanksgiving Day riot 6
lawless Irish is the logical sequence of
the temporizing of the police in deal
ing with this intolerant element, who
should have been arrested and pun
lshed when they first began running
amuck at the sight of British flag.
Heretofore the police have urged citi-
zens to surrender to these lawbreakcrs,
who, thus encouraged, have given vent
to their passionate hatred of England
by acts Of violence comparabl only to
the wild orgies of band Of savagcs.
The courage displayed by the Of
iicers of the Union Club sets an ex-
ample which should inspire the nine
tenths majority Of New York's citi-
zens, who are not of Irish birth or ex-
traction, into refusing to be gagged and
bound in their actions as freeborn
American citizens by the one-tcnth
minority who arc of Irish birth or cx-

Calling Another Conference

In view of the non-presence of
the United States at Geneva and
the proposal to invite America to
appoint a member Of disarmament
commission the following duly en-.
acted law, passed in 1916, is not
without interest:
1T is hereby declared TO be the
policy of the United States to ad-
just and settle its ternational dis
putes through mediation or arbi-
tration, to the end that war may be
honorably avoided 1t looks with
appreh hension and disfavor upon q
general increase of armament
throughout the world, but it realizes
that no single nation can disarm,
and that without a common agree
ment upon the subject every con-
siderable power must maintain
relative standing in military strength
"ln view of the premises, the
President is authorized and re-
quested to invite, at an appropriate
time, not later than the close of the
ments of the world to send repre-
sertatives 70 conference which
shall be charged with the duty of
formulating a plan for a court of
arbitration or other tribunal, to
which disputed questions between
nations shall be referred for adjudi-
cation and peaceful settlement, and
to consider the question of disarma-
ment and submit their recomme n da~
tion TO their respective governments
for approval"
The President was authorized to
name nine American citizens, "quali-
fed for the mission by eminence in
the law and by devotion to the
cause Of peace" to represent the
United States, and 100000 was ap-
propriated for expenses. But the
President, although the law is still
on the statute books, has not seen
tit to act. He has preferred to
ignore the request Of Congress.
If Senator Harding reaches the
conclusion that conference free Of
obligation to liquidate a particular
war offers the best hope for peace
he will not need to wait for legisla-
ton. 1t is, moreover, worthy of re
mark that the statute quoted above
gives fair idea or what was the
general American conception of tn.
course to be pursued before tn,
President mixed matters up.

A Greater Americanisrn

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Since the day that one of our
best known morning papers came out
with certain proGerman editorial
have been a reader of The Tribune.
And it gives me satisfaction to observe
that you have never wavered from a
consistent policy of unhyphenated
Americanism. Your article to-day con-
demning Sim Fein movement here for
/. "hyphenism" is true to form.
1t is interesting to note, also, that
their conduct to-day is as truly pro
German as it was during the World
War. Suppose by their propaganda and
flag tearing they should involve US in
war with England (they evidently want
to do so), what rejoicing there would
be in the ranks Of the Central Powers!
Could anything benefit Germany more
completely?
Sim F6in here to-day are showing
the same disregard for the safety Of
worl civilization that they showed
when th.y sized with Germany during
the war Their German sympathy now
shows itself in a copying of German
methods. Like the German hyphen-
ates, they are battcning on our free
institutions and trusting to our easy
going tolerance not to mind. They
haven't yet come out with "Ireland
uber Allies but they have evidently
applied the idea to our country, if not
TO the whole world, for one Of their
prominent sympathizers has called our
republic "Greater Ireland!" | thank

greater and stanchcr Americanism

Empty Churches

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The preposterous campaign that
Is being launched by set Of would
be reformers to introduce q code Of
blue laws to remove the last shreds
OF personal liberty still vouchsafed the
dwellers in this free country strength
ems growing opinion that the Church,
as an institution, is tot,sring on It's
foundations. The trouble as seen By
an Independent Observer lies in its
bachwardness and ltra-conservatism
We live in the twentetu century, our
habits, manners, philosophy and out
look on life have kept pace with the
material progress Of our time. Yet
the Church persists in forcing people
TO accept creeds and dogmas estab-
llshed during the Middle Ages ard be
fore, when Church education was the
only cd cation extant and physical fear
the only means by which an igno1-nt
populace could be coerced
Churches are empty to-day because
they follow the old law of supply and
demand, and most Of them are unable
to satisfy the growing intellectually
OF the people lmpotent 70 elevate
themselves to that height, they now
revert to the inquisition. Not the in
quisition Of the rack or the stake. but
a more subtle (and hence q more dan
gerous) one. For to deprive people
Of their liberty of personal action in
matters which do not have a harmful
effect on the community as a whole is
more harmful to the spirit of that
community than any nu.aber of auto
da-fe's could be. Professional re-
formers cannot, unfortunately, see
that II they could they would not
be what they are.
They even object to automobile driv-
ing on Sunday. Has it ever occurred
to any one that there may be more
genuine worship in the admiration of
tree or n sunset than in singing
hymns fkey in the foul atmosphere
of stufry church?
Verify. the worst of il is that all
i'dications point to their carrying out
tEeir Intentions. The once proud spirit
OF this nation is broken. A hypocrisy
mere or less, what's the difference?
ADRIAN VAN MUFFLING.
New York. Nov.A27, 1920.
New-York tribune., 1920-11-30

1920 the strength Of the regulars
was fixed at 280,000 men and 17,717
officers. The strength of the Ma
tional Guard was fixed at 100000
men. But on June 80, 1920, the ac-
tual National Guard strength was
only $500, including officers, and
there were no National Guard or
CARNATIONS in fourteen of the forty
eight states.
The Guard can hardly hope to re-
cover its old-time status in our mill
tary system. Many of it's most ac-
tive officers have been absorbed into
the regular army or the regular
officers reserve. The present Guard
units are composed mostly Of new
men. A closer relationship has also
been established between the Guard
and the regular army. Guard Off
GERS may be shifted to the reserve
corps and reserve corps officers to
the Guard. The head Of the Militia
Bureau of the War Department is
to be a National Guardsman. The
Guard units in the territorial corps
areas are to be combined into a
division under regular army control
for purposes Of administration,
training and tactical control
The new Guard will therefore be
much more of subsidiary element
than the old Guard was. 1t will fit
better into the unified military sys-
TEN which the country has long
needed. 1t will have it's own place,
but its activities will not clash with
the regular armys activities when
another mobilization comes. One
lesson of the war has been learned
in this helpful readjustment of the
relations between state and Fed
eral forces.
New-York tribune., 1920-11-30

TO the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir; A good many people take the
present agitation of the Lords Day
Alliance as more or less of joke, but
it seems to ne that the way this So
called prohibition was jammed through
should have taught the iberty-loving
American citizen to be on the watch for
any further movements started by q
bunch of narrow minded cranks.
This is supposed to be free country,
but it is growing less so all the time.
Why should 81 very, very small minority
dictate as to how the lives Of the rest of
the people should be spent, Sundays or
any other day? am sure that if you
or I or the next fellow want to go to
hell by reading The Sunday Tribune,
taking a strcetcar ride or motoring to
New Rochelle for dinner with some
friends, it is no business of the Rev.
DR.. Harry L. Bowby or any one else of
his kind. would much rather have the
forgiving and tolerant God decide my
fate.
As to Sunday sports and amuse-
ments, I believe they are far from
harmful Personally rarely go to the
Polo Grounds or to the movies on Sun
day, because I am fortunate enough to
oe able to go during the week, but
any Sunday do feel like going to those
places / just go ahead, and as yet
have not given up all hope for eternal
peace However, there are thousands
who have no opportunity for sports and
amusements except on Sunday, and they
ccrtai arc entitled TO q chance to
vent their enthusiasm at the ball game
or enjoy the quieter amusement of the
movies. If it has to be on Sunday, then
it will be on Sunday, all these "holier-
than-thou" creatures to the contrary
SO it behooves all people who do not
agree with our friend Bowlby to watch
his moves very carefully, because if he
slips this over it will be their own
fault. The best time to oppose it is
now, not after the laws are passed.

The Threat of Blue Lalus
4 Gentle Roar of Protest From Tribune Readers

DO first thing. lie will seek out Mr.
Bowlby and, finding him, will run him
Gown and scatter him. Mr.. Bowby
says there are 10000 600 Of him. Think,
too, of the man and woman married
up to the hilt' and bound by the Bowl
by blues TO stick together for better
or worse all through Sunday.
A httlc friction over nothing A few
words A rolling pin and a
dish or two, and mayhap police court
on Monday morning At the worst
himself or herself, or both, may be
forced by sheer boredom to go to
church out OF the frying pan
INTO the fire.
Mr.. Bowlby and the Lords Day Ali
ance are symptomatic of present-day
rotestantism. Church going has
fallen into disuse 1t isn't the thing
any more. Stark staring pews face
the minister every Sunday. If he can
40 stunts, or provide first rate opera
and concert singers, he is likely to
"draw' crowd. If he relies on
straight religion the chances are his
congregations will be small. Man.
ministers will do almost anything,
short of assault and battery, to get
bunch of people together But will
this new move help matters? It will
not. and may make them worse.
No. sir. Mr.. Bowlby's way is not the
way to do it. That's mans way, not
Gods way. CLERIC
