Restraining Poland
To the Editor Of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Allow me to thank you for your
editorial "The Brest-Litovsk Line" In
Saturdays issue. If our present Ad-
ministration really wishes to see the
downfall Of Bolshevism It NAV we'll
allow the Poles a free hand in deal
ing with this world menace. Inasmuch
as the existence Of . strong, indepen-
dent Poland seems to be q vital necss-
sity for Europe and also for the peace
Of che world, and the only aid our
government feels it can lend to Poland
in this crisis is q note or two, it had
better allow France, the alert and prac-
teal nation, to furnish the wise coun-
sci which she has proved herself quite
capable Of giving. To halt \ victorious
army at an arbitrary line when q fur
theT pursuit Of the retreatine foe
might result in complete victory would
be extreme folly.
The job the Poles have on hand is
to make Poland safe for democracy.
There will be ample time to climb back
over the fence after the Bolsheviki
are licked. The completion Of the un-
dertaking seems TO be especially de-
sirable inasmueh as an opportunity
exists to press the attack in the west
at the Same time that the forces under
General Wrangel are making hesdway
in the south.
France has done something practical
and effective toward combating the
Red menace by helping Poland with
munitions and military advisers and
BY the recognition Of General Wran-
gels government. She has already
advised Poland and will be most likely
to point out DANGERS ahead. II our
government cannot see Its way clear
to combat Bolshevism it can at lesss
refrain from helping the common foe
oy endeavoring to tie Poland's hands.

War on a Community

Brooklyn Rapid Transit trains
were stoned on Tuesday night, and
two passengers had their skulls frac-
tured. The attackers we're unseen,
and it is impossible to say whether
they were strikers or strike sympa-
thizers.
But violence Of this sort usually
accompanies the attempt Of traction
employees to stop the operation Of
systems on which they refuse to
work themselves and don't want to
let others work peaceably. AS usual,
innocent bystanders, compelled to
travel by their daily duties, are the
victims of this lawless spirit.
The strikers say that they are
fighting the company and claim the
right to make operation as difficult
as they can make it. But the COM
pany is an incorporeal entity, with
out skull to break. Those who are
killed. or injured are citizens, with a
right to use the car lines far superior
to the alleged right of the strikers to
tie them up.
The strikers and their friends are,
in fact, warning on the public in or
der to scare off passengers. The real
clash of interest and right is between
a reckless minority of 5000 or more
B. r. T. ex-employees and the great
mass Of the population of Brooklyn.

"A Futile Challenge

The anti-suffrage "bitter-enders"
in the Tennessee Legislature have
taken advantage Of the absence Of
some supporters Of suffrage to try
to reconsider the vote by which the
Nineteenth Amendment was ap-
proved and to non-concur in the
Senate's resolution of ratification.
But this is only futile face-saving
comedy. The trouble with the &C.
ton Of the lower house Of the Legis-
lature is that it concerns resolution
which has already passed beyond it's
possession and which it is impotent
to recall. Tennessee's certificate of
ratification has been duly signed and
sent to Washington. It has been
made the basis o. Secretary Colby's
proclamation that the Nineteenth
Amendment has been adhered to by
sufficient number Of states. What
use is it now to the Tennessee ants
to expunge the record Of approval
from the journal of one house? For
that was all the House Of Repre-
sentatives at Nashville could legiti-
mately do.
Congress instructed Secretary Sew
ard In 1868 to ignore attempts to
withdraw approvals Of the Four
teenth Amendment given previously
by the legislatures of New Jersey
and Ohio. Necessarily an approval
once given is final, else the Constitu-
ton would be subject to perpetual
changes of opinion on the part of in
dividual states. And if the states
assent has been regularly certified to,
as Tennessee's was, it will be ex-
ceedingly difficult to convince Con-
gress or the Supreme Court (no such
question has ever been carried to the
Supreme Court) that it is just or
practicable to 60 behind the returns.
Women have the vote and will keep
it. Even before litigation challeng-
ing Tennessee's consent on grounds
Of irregularity could be concluded
ratification will probably have been
put beyond any shadow of legal in
suffaciency by further assents on the
part Of Connecticut and Vermont.

The Pan-Germans IN Austria

An Austrian correspondent of the
Neue Zurcher Zeitung calls atten-
ton to the intrigue conducted by a
group Of Pan-Germanists, bent on
seeking compensation for Germany's
losses through union with Austria.
The correspondent points out that if
the prohibition enacted in the
treaties Of Versailles and St. German
could be overridden or evaded Ger
many would make the best of bar
gain in which she receives 100000
Of pure Germans in the stead of dis
affected and unreliable Poles, French
and Danes.
The annexation of the German
provinces Of Austria, the correspond
ent says, was one of the most impor-
tant detectives of Pan-German inn
perialists, even when ultimate Ger
man victory was taken for granted.
They planned to offer to their Haps-
burg allies, in exchange for these
provinces, vast Magyar-Slav en-
pire stretching from the Adriatic to
the Bug, the Black Sea and the
Egean. During the war an extern
sive apparatus, backed by unlimited
funds, was working in Austria for
this plan. The success Of this
propaganda is proved by the una
nimity or apparent unanimity with
which, Immediately after the COL
lapse Of the Central Powers, Aus
trian public opinion demanded the
union with Germany.
In spite Of the present unfavorab!e
outlook, the correspondent continues,
this Pan-German propaganda in
Austria Is more active than ever. In
Vienna an organization known as
the Deutsche Arbeitsgemeinschaft is
in charge Of the publicity and edu-
cational program, working hand in
hand with the Berlin "Committee
for Germans Abroad" Both, how
ever, are merely the visible organs
Of . secret committee headed by
Herr Helferich, the former Vice
Chancellor, and Count Wedel, the
German Ambassador in Vienna.
This committee has the co6pcra-
tion OF q number Of German indus

The Public Be Damned"

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Pardon me if l take the liberty
Of expressing my opinion, which differs
from that of-our honored tyrants. In
country which stands for democracy
and free principles, should few selfish
leaders Of unions, a large percentage
of whose members have been enlisted
through terrorization, have the power
to cripple whole community, with the
obvious slogan: "The public be damned?
The foolish public will stand for a lot.
Then may its vengeance fall on those
who outrageously set their own interests
above all others. EVERSHARP.

ADVICE TO A YOUNG POET
Be grotesque on Tyre and luts
If you would win a wide repute;
Mate bombast with hyperbole,
Break every law Of prosody,
And precedent-smash branch and
root.
OF fsr-fetched figures in pursuit,
Seek to surprise with every foot,
And crowned with laurel you will be;
Be grotesque.
Behold the star Of Ezra. shoot,
View Amy's glory upward scoot;
The tail Of Opportunity
They clutched--and still tho path
is free;
Lash Pegasus, nor give a hoot;
Be grotesque.
