ing of them They are submerged for
ever.
The Jersey girls want to head
straight for the movie studios. II the
runaway is dark she is Theba Bara.
She wears her hair in mop and has
an affinity for wide black hats and
slants her gaze. Every inch vamp
is her motto. To save her life she can
not see where Miss Goodman-a thou
sand pardons; l meant Miss Bara-
has anything on her in the matter OF
looks. She will argue the point with
the aid society's agent.
"I'm just as good vamp as she
is,' she will insist, passionately. IF
only they'll gimme chance"
But if the Jersey fugitive is slender
and fair, then, of course-Mary Pick
ford. She has picture of Miss Pick
ford, cut out of an illustrated paper.
The ingenue role for her every time,
the tender, candid, girlish little girl,
you know. Agents for the society wish
passionately that Miss Pickford would
go into some other line of endeavor
Without exception they profess an in
ability to understand why she so at
tracts the rising but runaway gener-
alton. They are strongly anti-Pick-
ford
The Jersey girls must be shown.
1t is no use to tell them that the
movie studios could load ship daily
with available vamps, or that Mary
Pickford completely fills the Picford
field. Good advise squartters from
them like water from ducks back.
So the agents escort them around to
the offices of the movie agents, and in
extreme cases to the studios them
selves, and let them wear themselves
out t.ying'to get engagements. Mean
while they are protected.
Not every runaway girl is a real
runaway. Some have every reason for
leaving home, and the agents Of the
society sympathize with them when
their cases are presented. There is no
hard and fast rule of action-no de-
termination to report whether the
girl is right or wrong. Some Of the
girls who are reported as having left
home did so to escape from a family
tyranny which had become unendur-
able.
Others have merely exercised their
right to act independently. In some
homes the parents are kind and low
ing and helpful-but they want to be
kind and loving and helpful along
their own lines. 1t never occurs to
them that girl may be more happy
pounding a typewriter than hitting
the baby grand for few passionate
daily stanzas. When the girl disa-
grees with Mother, there is an easy
way to put her in her place.
T-sob, sob, sob-can't believe that
hoo, hoo, hoo-my Own Daughter
would treat me this way"
Then Ma goes around with red eyes
and hair hanging until she has bullied
the girl into quiet. But the girl is apt
to leave home for all that. A few ses-
sions of that sort and Mothers lamen-
tations sound like a phonograph to
the girl who believes herself to be
right. Sometimes her experience in
the Big City cures her and she goes
home. Sometimes it proves her to have
been right. In either case the Travel
ers' Aid Society has been an insurance
against too much sorrow.

The Overall Dilemma.

IF overalls, generally adopted as
masculine garb in protest against
profteering, should advance in price
to the point Of non-economy, what re-
course will the revolters havei They
may have to 60 back to their old cloth
ing, which will not be conspicuous
enough to stamp the wearers as mark
edly as they wish. They might adopt a
distinctive badge, calling attention to
their garments as Of a past season OF
style. A big button bearing the sym.
boil Of a ragged coat and the letters

League" would serve. The danger Of
any distinctive costume is that If il
becomes fad it loses its utility % 4
protest against the high cost Of good
attire. overalls at overall prices mean
real economy, but oyeralls at fancy
prices become . luxury, and their gem
eral adoption and consequent advance
in price will defeat the very purpose
Of the instruction. Parades will not
soften the profteering heart. Only
loss Of trade will cause . lowering OF
prices.

Italy and Turkey.

Premier Nitti Of Italy presents a
peculiar figure in pleading for a milder
treaty with Turkey. In an interview
attributed to him at San Eemo he
said:
"You win have war in Asia Minor
and Italy viii not send q single soldier
NOR pay . single Ira. You have taken
from the Turks their sacred city Of
Adrianople. You have placed their
capital city under foreign control; you
have taken from them evcry port and
the larger part Of their territory, and
the five Turkish delegates whom you
will select will sign treaty which will
not have the sanction Of the Turkish
people or the Turkish parliament"
Italy has always been somewhat ten
der toward Turkish sensibilities. Al
though engaged in the war just before
tho great war these two powers did not
fight one another with any particular
degree Of vigor. They fastened to
make an adjustment on the outbreak

are projected, but one Of the largest
items Of improvement carried by the
District appropriation bill has been
put in jeopardy by elimination from
the bill by the Senate committee.
Eventually all these connecting links
in both the District and Maryland must
be improved and kept at high state
Of efficiency. The war caused heavy
road use that broke down some Of the
best surfaces. In many cases the i'm
provements now necessary are the di-
rect consequence Of this extraordinary
traffic. Both the state and the Dis
trict must spend money literally, not
merely to restore conditions to pre-
war status, but to extend the area Of
good pavement on both sides Of the
boundary.

Maryland and District Roads.

Maryland and District Roads.
Gov. Richie Of Maryland has vetoed
q bill passed by the legislature direct
ing the state highways commission to
construct q road connecting the pres
emit boulevard from Baltimore at
Hyattsville with Rhode Island avenue.
This is short link to effect cutoff in
the Washington Baltimore route. The
governor takes the ground that such
q specific direction would hamper the
commission, which, he feels, should be
free in the choice Of routes and places
for improvements. He will, how.
ever, urge the commission to con-
struct this road at an early date.
Maryland's road system is one Of
the best in the country and Washing.
ton, Of course, takes keen interest in
its development for the reason that
owing to the narrow confines Of the
District Washingtonians are forced to
use the Maryland roads freely. They
feel in sense q partnership, mas
much as they pay large motor license
fees to the state. At the same time
the Marylanders use the District roads
and streets. It cannot be said that the
suburban roads Of the District are the
equal Of the Maryland roads. Some Of
them are positively q disgrace to the

Of the Balkan war which gave Italy
possession Of valuable island holdings
in the eastern Mediterranean to which
Greece had long laid claim.
The only question that the supreme
council now sitting at San Reno
should consider in regard to Turkey
is whether it is practicable to eliminate
the Turkish government in Europe and
to what extent Turkey in Asia can
be restricted and placed under inter-
national dominion. For Turkey is to
be treated as a disease. It has poison
ed the politics Of the world in the past.
It has been the cause Of more trouble
than any other power. It has wrought
more misery than any other country.
It has been the pawn for schem-
ing statesmen and in the last war it
played a most villainous part as an
ally Of Germany and Austria, without
which those powers could not have
maintained themselves for half the
period Of their campaign.
Regardless of what Italy may think
or do, this question should be settled
in the interest Of civilization, Of hu-
manity, Of international decency and
safety, and not with reference to the
political desires and designs Of the
Turks, who have forfeited all right to
consideration and should now be COM
PEELED to take in terms Of peace the
maximum Of punishment that can be
effectively administered.

A Floral Festival.

The festival Of the spring flowers is
on. It is in full blast, or, in order to
keep the metaphor straight, it might
be better to say that the festival is in
full bloom. This, annual exhibition of
wild flowers is at its best in those
old fields and deep woods where few
vandal-men and vandal-women 60. In
the thick, rough woods and along the
rock cliffs Of the Potomac, a region 50
wild that comparatively few Sunday
cutters enter it, splendid display Of
early spring flowers is set out upon the
ground. Blue violets grow at almost
every footstep where the earth is moist
and there are colonies where they live
together by the thousand.
There are patches, in some cases acres
wide, where the dogtooth violet, or the
ladders tongue" has unfolded its yell
low flowers. In the dry fields and in
the high woodland, where the sun is
brightest, grow little bluets by the mil
lion, and where there is more shade
and moisture there are churchman's
breeches" in large quantities. Blood
root blossoms, the white flowers of the
crinkle root, purple trilliums, clusters
Of the blue flowers Of Virginia cowslip,
the pale pink and cream blooms Of
"spring beauties" and a score Of other
spring flowers have unfolded their
petals before the trees have put out
their leaves.

Bernard n. Baruch.

The report that Bernard NJ. Baruch
has composed the difference that exI
listed for time between former Sec
rotary McAdoo and the leader Of Tam.
many Hall has given rise to some in
terestins speculation about the sue
cessful mediator. Take this question:
If Mr.. McAdoo succeeds his father-in.
law in the White House, will Mr..
Baruch become the Secretary Of the
Treasury, or the Col. House Of the new
administration
For the former post, Mr.. Baruch, it
is conceded, has high qualifications.
He has had signal success in business
on large scale. It was this that gave
him much consequence in this town in
administration circles during the war.
he helped solve some Of the most diff
cult business problems. Indeed, Cos
sip had it that he might have succeeded
Mr.. McAdoo in the Treasury Depart
ment If his private affairs at that time
had made it possible for him to &C.
cept Office. The President was most
favorably impressed with him.
As for the role Of Col. House, Mr..
Baruch might play it. The colonel is
both bookish man and q business
man. So is Mr.. Baruch. The difference
between them is this: Col. House is a
little more bookish than business; Mr..
Baruch a little more business than
bookish. But, as he is college bred he
is bookish enough for everyday polit.
ical wear.
And then this Same difference holds
between the President and Mr.. Nc
Adoo. The latter would not demand
as much bookishness in his fidus
Achates as the former.
Mr.. Baruch likes politics. He en-
tered the game at the same time Mr..
McAdoo did, and has developed much
talent for it. He possesses large means,
and can afford public life with its small
money returns. He is very much in
the picture just now.

pretty desperate. The paper had

banks, and 1t owed the bank a
considerable amount of money. One
day the officials Of the bank called
in Mr.. Hitchcock and told him they
would like to have the World
Herald pay OF its indebtedness and
take its account to some other
bank; that it could not afford, and
support Bryan's candidacy.
Mr.. Hitchcock. in his quiet way.
explained that 1t was impossible
to take the account to some other
bank. One Of the officials became
excited and threatened to bring
suit II the notes were not paid be-

he would publish the facts in the

back to the wall. Mr.. Hitchcock
put up a winning fight. He agreed
to make curtail Of the notes with

when possible. Today the World
Herald does not owe this bank
anything, nor does it have its ac-

Heartache and the Presidency.

Vice President Marshall, who is not
troubled with the presidential bee, said
in New York:
'T knew all the older Indiana states
men and politicians. I know that Fair
banks and Hendricks died with broken
hearts because they sought and did not
achieve the presidency"
Note another resemblance between
the hard fortunes Of those two men.
Mr.. Hendricks was very reluctant
about accepting second place on the
ticket with Mr.. Tilden, and yielded
only under the hardest pressure. The
ticket was defeated. Eight years later
he was still more reluctant about &C.
cepting second place on the ticket with
Mr.. Cleveland. Again pressure was
brought, and he yielded. That ticket
was elected.
Mr.. Fairbanks was somewhat reluc.
tant about accepting second place on
the ticket with Mr.. Roosevelt. He was
q member Of the Senate at the time,
we'll placed, and with his eyes fixed on
the White House. But he yielded, and
the ticket was elected. Twelve years
later he was still more reluctant about
accepting second place on the ticket
with Mr.. Hughes. He had aspired to
first place, and failed. But, when
drafted, he could not refuse. That
ticket was defeated.
There was resemblance between
Mr.. Hendricks and Mr.. Fairbanks as
politicians. Both were unusually
suave on the stump. Both were per.
suasive speakers. Each, after "easy-
boss" methods, dominated his party at
home. Both were popularity, though
mistakenly, tagged as trimmers. As q
matter of fact, neither lacked convic.
tions, nor the courage Of them. They
simply were not blatant nor bullying
in their advocacy Of measures. Each
had in him the qualities that 60 with

University Of Michigan and was
graduated with a degree of bach
elor of laws in 1881.
How did 1t happen that Senator
Hitchcock, the son of q republican
senator, became q democrat? When
Gilbert Hitchcock left the law
school he returned to Omaha and
began the practice of law. But he
had always had a bent for news
paper work. There was q chance
to purchase the Omaha Evening
some other enthusiastic young men
bought the paper. Mr.. Hitchcock
became the editor. He had been
born and brought up q republican.
But he had an idea that q newspa-
per should be independent in poll
tics-that 1t should attempt to
present to the public both sides Of
pending political questions: This
was the plan he adopted with the
az an Independent newspaper, po-
Ntically. until the wind up Of the
campaign Of 1888, when Grover
Cleveland was the democratic
nominee and the tariff was q great
issue.
In 1889. Mr.. Hitchcock purchased
the Omaha Herald. and merged 1t
with the World under the name OF
the Omaha World-Herald. which
today 10 one OF the most success
full and widely read newspapers in
the middle west. But this success
was not accomplished for q num-
Der Of years. and there were times
when 1t appeared that the paper
must go to the wall, and Mr.. Hitch
cock along with it. Other men
drew out Of the enterprise. but Mr..
Hitchcock put his all into 1t. The
fight he made to put his paper on
its feet is characteristic Of him.
He sticks.
William Jennings Bryan was a
young lewyer in Lincoln, Neb., in
those days. He was very attrac-
tive, q great speaker even then.
and Mr.. Hitchcock became inter-
ested in Bryan. He helped to elect
Bryan to Congress. In 1894 Mr..
Hitchcock gave up the editorial
work on the World Herald to Mr..
Bryan, he himself taking charge
particularly Of the business man
agement Of the paper. Mr.. Bryan's
