ONE OF OUR
NATIONAL NUISANCES

Washington, April 26.-Political
picketing, often of the peaceful sort,
ana more often with militant accom-
PAYMENTS, is running epidemic in
Washington again and the thousands
of tourists who make the national
capital their Mecca all year round
again see bands of women slowly
parading about the streets bearing
banners with a wide variety of in
scriptions.
Seemingly, every cause which
wishes to impress it's demands, argu-
ments or protests on "the powers that
be" ultimately adopts the picketing
system which was first introduced in
the capital by branch of the woman
suffragists about ten years ago. The
latest to adopt the method are women
espousing the cause of Irish freedom
and they have directed their protests
against the British embassy. Their
campaign has caused somewhat of a
furry because it is not without it's in
ternational aspects.
The British embassy, for instance,
is foreign territory; whether the side
tory, no one has essayed to decide.
Moreover, there is federal law which
penalties any person who assaults"
a diplomatic representative of a
friendly power. Whether the picket
ing of the embassy is an annoyance to
the British diplomats and whether an
annoyance is an assault within the
technical meaning of the law is an
additional question.
Then there is involved the question
of preserving the public peace, for
disturbances often grow out of the
picketing. Oten, some woman passer-
by, expresses her disagreement with
the banners the pickets bear by rip
ping them to bits and the pedestrian
and the picket have a scrimmage, with
sometimes regular old fashioned hair
pulling. The police patrol clangs up,
both parties to the quarrel are
hustled off to station house Relief
pickets Immediately arrive. The po-
lice court gets another case.
The personnel of the picketing
forces furnishes an interesting study
in human nature. They are women
apparently from all walks of life.
Many bear evidences of breeding. edu-
cation and social position. Others are
women who appear to be of the op-
posite types. Every picketing cam
paign brings out new charges that
many pickets are "hired" for the
work by others who are willing to
provide substitutes and do not wish to
picket in the streets in all sorts of
weather.
The suffrage pickets who made a
record for getting arrested, jamming
the police court docket and finally
having a hunger strike. patterned aft
er their British sisters, were compos-
ed apparently of women of all classes
Many whose names are nationally
known did picket duty, spent nights in
a police station cell and finally did
time in the work house. Some of them
if the truth were known, were freed
by husbands who disapproved of their
actions. Thehe was more than one
case of a husband promising the au-
