ANOTHER COX BULL

TOVERNOR COX has announced that he
~ believes the League Of Nations should
interfere in the domestic affairs of one Of its
members when the citizens Of any other
member nation think those affairs affect in
ternational relations.
II this is what the league is to do then
those senator's who opposed it on the ground
that it would interfere with the sovcrpigpty
of the United States have more reasons for
their objections than has commonly been
isnpposed.
We have insisted that We have the ex.
}clusiye right to decide our own immigration
policy without Interference from outside
sources. If Governor Coxs view of the
function of the league is correct, Japan
could appeal TO the league against any re-
strictions we might place upon the adms.
zion of japanese to the United States and
China could do likewise.
The logic of Governor Cox's view would
make the league u medder in the internal
affairs Of every nation, and If it were gen
,erally accepted the league itself would break
iup IN short order.

THE TEACHER EXODUS

LuGHT more designations of teachers re-
~ cei-ed by the Board of Education brings
the total from September l up to fifty y-two.
Doctor CARRIER states that these retircments
were expected and that there is nearly
double that number of eligible candidates
from whom new selections will be made.
But experience is a prime asset in peda
gogy, and compensation for designations in
large blocks is not always to be derived
from newcomers. Instructors with long
service records are obviously the most valu-
able to the Board Of Education.
Nothing can be gained by rose tinting the
crisis in the pubic schools. The new Pa
rents Loan which has been going slowly,
ought TO exert a more general appeal when
the fact that trained teachers are rapidly
leaving is fully faced

only recently the United States Ship
~ ping Board gave out a statement show
ing, for various ports, the length of time
averaged by ships entering, discharging and
leaving again--what is known as the ships
"turn around" For Philadelphia the time
given was twenty one days. But no shin
ping man here believes that figure. Al
claim that it should have been much greater.
Suppose we had now in use the two
municipal piers named in Director Sprorle's
complaint-piers that should, under the
contract, have been finished long ago. 1t
would certainly mean that the average turn
around, whether the correct figure be
twenty one or fifty or l01 days, would
be shortened by one day. And what would
that one little day mean in cold dollars and
cents?
In the six months ending June 80 3SO6
vessels entered and cleared from Phiadel,
pbia. That is twenty one and one third
ships day. The total delays on the two
piers to the first of this month made lS1
days. At $4,000 per ship per day these
piers, or piers adequate to cut only one day
from each ship, would have meant the saw.

And Philadelphia would have got the
credit and the bulk of the business.
