Our Continental Mobilization Plan

Familiarity in the zone of opera
lions with the French army and its
methods led many American officers
and soldiers TO realize for the first
time how sound were its plans and
how well they worked In war. To
many such Americans who had our
national defence mt heart came the
hope that we might adopt one out
standing feature Of the French army
system at least. That feature Is its
plan of mobilization.
Officers and men realized the very
practical nature of the plan of having
every man in the army attached TO
some certain unit so that when the
call for mobilization came a man had
only to find out where bis unit had its
headquarters and go TO II. And out
of the spirit born OF their war ex-
periences in France many OF our
young soldiers have expressed the de-
sire to keep up some sort Of official
attachment to their old outfits so that
II call for service came again they
could rejoin the commands they had
served in abroad.
To such believers In national pre-
paredness of practical sort 1t will
be welcome news 10 learn that the
War Department has such plan I'M
der way. Its details we're made pub
lie for the first time by Major.Ge

This year women will vote in New
York State for President and Vice
President of the United States. and
this fact creates situation which
should impress on every citizen quail
fed to register the necessity for per-
forming that essential preliminary at
the earliest possible moment.
While the experience gained by the
election authorities has enabled them
to prepare generally for the expedi-
tious handling Of all applicants for
registration. the arrangements have
been ma,le on the assumption that
citizens will not postpone until the
last possible moment the act of put
ting their names on the poll list.
If there is widespread neglect to
take advantage of the early Opportu-
nifty 10 register the congestion on the
later days will be uncomfortable for
all citizens and will result in the ex-
clusion of some late corners from the
registration places.
The registration places will be open
from P. NJ. till 10 80 p. NJ. in every

except Saturday. Saturday they will

breaks all previous records, and the

They are. however. unable to find a
profitable market, as the dealers who
come through from the nearest distrib-

who in order TO pick and crate them
must take the time from his other work,
it being practically impossible TO secure
farm laborers.
For this reason throughout the farm

probably after strenuous efforts has en-
abled the chain stores TO supply the

Not More Land but More Men.

In recent speech the Democratic
candidate for Vice-President, FRANK
LIN ID. ROOSEVELT, declared that he
had concrete plan for decreasing the
cost Of living. One of his bright ideas
was the opening up of great tracts Of
new land for the farmer.
The foolishness Of such talk is en-
phasized by the reports Of the Census
Bureau on urban and rural popula-
tons. Ten years ago the cities had
nearly 100000 fewer people than the
country. To-day the inhabitants Of
the cities outnumber the country peo-
pie by 100000.
Professor HoBsoN of Columbia
makes the drift to the cities appear
even more remarkable. His figures
show that a hundred years ago 81 per
cent. Of Americans lived directly Off
the soil. To-day less than 80 per cent
are engaged In agriculture.
What the farmers need for the gen
eral good Is not more land but more
men. They will get them when the
working hours, pay and conveniences
OF the farm overbalance urban attrac-
lions. Meanwhile the cities will have
to pay well for their food because
their very pleasantness has lured
young men from the plough.

The Long Roll OF Harding States

One of the most interesting and sig
nificant developments of this political
campaign is the extreme conservatism
of the Republican claims in contrast
with the freedom and candor of Dem
ocrats of common sense who concede
pretty nearly everything TO HARDING
and COOLIDGE.
The truth Is that the Republican
slide is so broad and so terrific and
the roll Of Harding States so long
that Republican managers and other
experts hesitate to express their full
opinions and estimates lest they might
seem to be INDUCING in wild dreams.
So many States, moreover, are re-
garded as absolutely sure for the
Republicans this year as against ordi-
nary years, when many of them al
ways are classed as doubtful until
near the end of the campaign, that
the Republicans see no need Of siren
uously claiming those that are merely
reasonably sure. A table, for exam
pie, by one of our trained correspon-
dents and observers, grouping voting
territory as Harding States. rs Cox
States and as doubtful States puts
in the Democratic column. for the
moment, Montana with three electoral
votes Utah with four. Arizona with
three, New Mexico with three. Okla
homa with ten: and doubtful, Mis-
souri, with eighteen, Colorado with six
and Nevada with three.
But at the very same time a great
Democratic newspaper, leading VIII
son organ and an ardent League
champion, Is printing the results Of
a nationwide canvass Of voters in
all the shops OF the United Drug
Company. And this canvass, to which
such publicity is given by that Demo-
cratic newspaper. shows that thus far
In Montana twice as many men can
vassed have declared themselves for
HARDING as for Cox and two and
half times as many women have de-
clared themselves for HANDING as for
Cox. In Utah thus far the men de-
claring themselves for HARpING out
number the men declaring themselves
for Cox by about ten to seven and the
women by more than two to one.
In Arizona, hitherto regarded as q
Democratic State, the Harding men
voters canvassed outnumber the Cox
voters canvassed by four to three,
while the women are about even. In
Missouri the canvass shows a neck
and neck race among the men voters
as between HARDING and Cox and only
slight lead for Cox over HANDING
among the women canvasse1. In Col
orado the canvass shows one and
three-quarters men for HARDING to
every one man for Cox and nearly
two women for HARDING TO every one
for Cox. In Nevada the men 80 far
have declared themselves for HANDING
in the proportion of two TO one and
the women In the proportion OF more
than two to one.
In the vernacular which is political
as well as popular, 1t Is like taking
candy from children.

b. sebaiI, Gambling.

Representative NICHOLAS Lone
WORTH, whose motives are doubtless
of the best, Is talking about Con-
gressional action in the baseball scan
dial. He seems 10 think that betting
on baseball games could be ended by
legislation. He might as we'll think
that legislation could keep the Mis-
sssippi from rising with the spring
thaws.
So long as there are baseball games
and men with hot opinions and loose
money there will be baseball betting
Betting is the last resort, short of
physical conflict. among persons who
have exhausted their patient reason
ing and eloquence on the other fellow.
I'm bet you" is the final phrase.
In this State there Is legislation
against betting, but men will bet. 1t
is violation not only Of statute law
but Of the Constitution itself to make
an election bet. Article III. of the Con-
stitution bars from voting any person
who has made bet on the election :;
but John Smith continues to bet jim
Brown six hats to one that HARDING
will be elected.
IF men will not stop betting when
the act hazards their franchise, does
Mr.. LoN6woRTIr think that an act of
Congress will do more than the State
law has been able to do?
With all that may be said against
betting, il was more than betting that
caused the baseball scandal. The big
baseball gamblers could have bet their
very heads and nobody would have
cared much. But when they bribed
some Of the White Sox players to
throw the games so that they could
win their bets they struck hard
blow at professional bail.
The punishment of the bribers is
not yet plain. That is up to Chicago
jury. But the guilty ball players who
took the brides and betrayed the pub
lie and their employers are being pun
ished and will be still further pun
ished more severely than legislation
could punish them. They are reduced
from easy jobs at $4,000 or more
year and kicked out into the streets.
branded men, TO pick up a living
wherethey can.
SO far as any lesson to the owners
of baseball clubs is concerned. the
White Sox story is one to be remem-
bered for years. Yet the owner Of
the White Sox was, so far as the evil
dence goes, completely innocent OF any
knowledge of the bribery Of his men.
When the revelation came it meant
loss of Mt least 100000 to CoMIsKEY.
He could have sold the guilty players
for that much before their perfldy was
discovered. And yet we cannot mag
inc any legislation that would have
protected either the public or CoMIs-
KEY. Legislation can punish, but that
does not mean that 1t can always
protect.
In the case of baseball or anything
else that depends upon the public for
living the greatest protection is pub
lie opinion. It is court that oper-
ates itself and from which there Is
no appeal.
