this is against the rule of the road,

It will matter little if as the naval
investigation develops he succeeds in
passing the blame up to President
Wilson, who appointed him and kept
him in Office, or in passing it down
to Admiral Benson, the chief Of
naval operations, whom he picked
up from captaincy as supegin-
tendent Of a navy yard, making him
the chief officer Of the navy and
keeping him in Office throughout the
war. II will serve no worthy pur-
pose to visit resentment for the mis-
management of the navy on either

A Twentieth Amendment

The prize letter yesterday in The
Tribune's platform contest empha-
sizes something which, it seems to
US, has not received adequate public
attention--namely, the disregard Of
the Constitution revealed by recent
history.
The Constitution created a Con-
gress, representative of the people, to
make laws, adopt policies and in all
major matters determine national ac-
ton. Decisions having been reached
by Congress, the Presidency was
established to execute them. The
government was to be parliament
ary, with an agency, possessing as
to the methods employed great inde-
peadence, to carry into effect the
popular will as declared by Con-
gress.
Such was the general scheme-a
scheme in its main features charac-
teristic of the institutions of all free
peoples.
This system still exists with re-
spect to domestic matters, but as to
international relations 1t is wellnigh
wreckedA The present President haa

partite military treaty.
The Mayors Mouthful.

It seems indeed like painting the
lily to call attention to any such de-
tail in our city's administration as
the oral forthputtings Of our Mayor
their quaint abruptness, their un-
conventional use Of manners seldom
before ~racinq our City Hall. Yet
Mr.. Henry L. Stimson's refusal to
appear before their honors the
Mayor and the Comptroller-by and
with the approval Of a United States
judge-suggests that even this de-
tail Of administrative action is not
without its Importance to the public.
The development Of the truth
touching our traffic situation is
surely matter Of considerable con-
Germ to the public. 1t might seem
not beneath the attention of a
Mayor, however disgruntled with
his failure to beat the city's rail
ways and subways into submission.
Mr.. Stimson is an intelligent and
fair-minded citizen as we'll as an
able attorney. What he has to say
should be we'll worth hearing as a
contribution to at least one aspect of
the whole truth. Yet we are to be
denied this help through the grace
full insults and genial rowdiness of
Mr.. Hylan's and Mr.. Craig's tactics
Of examination.
What we would suggest is that
while the Mayors mouthfuls are and
should be immortal, the truth is
something else again and we'll worth
obtaining.

The Noblest Mausoleum
What Crave Would Our Boys
Themselves I Desirc3

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: AS my son was not in the United
States service when he was killed in
France / have hesitated to speak out as
TO the mistake Of transporting the
bodies Of the American dead from their
resting places abroad. But now that a
bill in Congress threatens to transport
the bodies of our soldiers who died
abroad every American has an interest
in the issue.
Lying, as they do, on the soil they
died to save, our boys have a fate to
be envied, and their graves are the best
and most natural monuments of our
share in the Great War. They record
its glory and it's cost. Can one imagine
that the boys themselves would wish
to be separated, dispersed and huddled
sadly into country churchyards in Amer
lea out Of supposed desire on their
part to lie near their kin? Soldiers
are not like that. These boys are with
their kin now, and their names stand
near each other on a register that will
not be lost. These cemeteries in Franco
will become places Of pilgrimage for
Americans, and the nephews and great
nephews Of the dead will 20 back to
their native towns and tell their neigh
bors how and where they found the
name Of theirs, of which all are proud.
Such homecoming as this will have
meaning in it.
The transportation Of corpses is al
ways unpleasant. When we hear of the
transfer from Europe even of a dead
millionaire we ask ourselves, Why could
not his family be content to leave him
where he dropped? They must have
some important mausoleum in Woodlawn
or in Greenwood. But in this case it is
proposed to withdraw the dead from the
most magnificent mausoleum that fate
can give a soldier--a grave near bat

SerUe a Countryside

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: DR.. Cole gives only part Of the
case in his letter of recent date. Grant
ing that the garages CT Bradford do
employ fifteen men who were formerly
in other pursuits and that the town has
only dozen commercial vehicles, this
is not the whole Of the story.
Some Of the runabouts are used for
business purposes. The light trucks Of
Bradford make regular trips into the
adjacent towns, permitting one man to
cover territory which would need sew
eral men and teams if, indeed, IN at
tempt were to be made to cover it ct
all.
Moreover, there are many trucks Ia
the outlying districts which depend
upon the Bradford garages for repairs.
have two myself, and but for these
trucks our activities would be very
small indeed. As it is, through the
active season we employ an average Of
half a dozen men, who are all kept
busy in the raising Of food products.
1t is almost safe to say that because
OF these trucks this one farm is pro-
ducing as much food as the combined
forces of the garage employees and my
own men could do in these back hills
without trucks.
And this does not take into account
that Bradford physician, with his au-
tomobiie, attends to cur ailments; .
Bradford butcher, with his delivery
car, supplies US with meat; the bank
cashier Of an afternoon runs out to
keep an eye on the industry Of
his customers, the rural mail servie
is handled by truck and even ths un.
dertaker makes quick trips through use
OF motor nearse.
DR.. Cole is perfectly right in his con-
tention that money which should rep
resent savings is now used for Joy
riding, but he is wrong in contendins
that there is loss in production be-
cause Of automobiles and the garages.

set himself up as an exclusive mas
ter in the field Of foreign affairs.
The Chief Executive, responsible
nowhere except by impeachment, is
to make war and conclude peace as
he pleases. We have seen Vera
Cruz occupied by our armed forces
while Congress was not consulted
until after the event. We have seen
American regiments sent to Arch
angel and into Siberia without Con-
gress being consulted either before
or after. We have seen a treaty
negotiated which the President holds
must be accepted just as he helped
secretly to write it.
Thus there is a claim Of prerog-
ative not dissimilar to the one-man-
ism characteristic Of kaiserism and
czarism. The clause requiring an
affirmative vote by two-thirds Of the
Senate to effect ratification gives a
President chance to play despot.
Ordinarily a President will be able
to line up one-third Of the Senate by
the use Of patronage and influence
and thus force acceptance Of his
mandates by blocking action. The
Constitution says treaties shall be
made by the President and Senate
acting together. The new doctrine,
sought to be established by usage, is
that the President in effect shall
make them alone.
The Republican platform, in the
clearest and most positive terms,
should declare against despotic one
man-ism and stand firm for respon-
sible government. 1t might also we'll
declare for constitutional amend
ment requiring a President to asso-
ciate members Of the Senate with
him when negotiating. Such associ-
alton has been the Presidential prac-
tice, but practice has not sufficed to
instruct willful President.
