The Staggered Hours

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: just one word Of criticism o.
the orders which have been issued ps
Dr. Copeland for closing offices anc
stores. Through this order the Offices
close earlier than the stores By sh
hour or more. and the people from 'ns
said Offices pour by the hundreds 'ns'
the stores, as they are given so mue'
more time for shopping.
The congestion in the stores is eH
t,emeiy bad; the congestion on we
trains is not relieved: in fact, l hsv'
noticed that the later hour trafhc !"
greater than before, as employees fro"
both Offices and stores for this sas'h
leave around the same time.
Il seems 10 me that enough though
has not been given to the subject !
have heard that one of the large stores
wanted to close at 4:30 o'clock to en-
able its people TO reach their hon''
early enough 10 escape conges'e'
trains. hut were not permitted TO a'
so. Ii the stores had been allowed "
close at their usual hour, or q ii'u'
earlier. as most OF them desired TO '0'
the above condition would not no"
exist. NJ. +. L.. A SUBSCRIBER

New-York tribune., 1920-01-31
The Younger Roosevelt

Into the windows of the younger
Roosevelt are dropped many mis-
sives, even as such were dropped
into the windows of the younger
Brutus. The Republic is in danger
of harm. There is adjuration to act.
A great opportunity offered to
Colonel Roosevelt when Speaker
Sweet drew his suspension decree
from his pocket and began to read
the hectoriug lecture he was in no
way authorized to deliver. 1t has
been said that another Roosevelt
would have thrown a challenge full
into the face Of the false doctrine he
heard exploited. Perhaps there
might have been q dramatic inter
ruption if the father had stood where
the son stood.
But there is no ground for serious
criticism on this account. The issue
raised was one that forbade hasty
action. For one we do not regret
that Colonel Roosevelt began his pub
lie career by making sure first that
ne was right. Sobriety and self-re-
straint have their claims as we'll as
quick decision.
In the settlement of the Albany
question there is no call for in
surgency. No difficulties should be
placed IN the way Of Speaker Sweet
repairing his mistake. He is not ac-
cused of unpatriotic motive More
over, the Red" propaganda, with
It's advocacy Of the force" principle
has been bold. Even though the So
clalist Assernblymen never person
ally committed themselves to it, it
VIII not be asserted they have been
energetic in combating it. The in.
citation Of treason needed to be
stopped, and the Speakers friends
may contend that although his
methods were poor he contributed tn
good practical result. It is no
snail thing to have driven the So
cailst organization into disavow;np
HoisheVlsm and TO declarations
trough its leaders that it Wages no
ar on the democratic prirsiple.
New-York tribune., 1920-01-31
Credit 70 Europe

Secretary Glass has restated his
opposition to further government
loans to European governments. He
holds that that method Of relieving
the economic strain in Europe is in
advisable.
Opinions may differ on the ques-
tion of method; but the question of
relief remains and must be faced.
European countries cannot continue
to buy American goods (and they
are in crying need Of American raw
Inaterials) unless they buy on credit
II We don't give credit, sales must
stop. They are being made more and
more difficult every week by the de-
cline in the foreign exchange rate.
Commerce with Europe may present
~ be suspended unless we are will
ing to allow Europe to make de-
ferred payments.
There are some who will say:
All right; let the situation adjust
ITSELF If that course is taken, Eu-
ropes distress will be aggravated,
but we shall not be able to play
the role Of a disinterested spectator.
If our trade with Europe stops, the
effects will be felt here. The United
States will then have to consume it's
own elrnluS commodities and q
painful process Of contraction will
set in. Many thousands will be un-
employed.
The world cannot afford to in
dulge in brusque readjustment of
the abnormal conditions created By
the war. The United. States is
equally concerned with other nations
in avoiding this. If we cut off credit
TO Europe in one form or another,
we, too, VIII have to pay the piper.
New-York tribune., 1920-01-31
This Efenninate Thing Called
Love

We have no doubt that it is a
sturdy, Jack londonish creature,
familiarly known in certain brands
of fiction rs ga mans man, who
has arisen in tho State Of California
to fight for the removal Of the word
''love' from tennis scoring. This
change is one proposal of The new
rules soon to come before the tennis
authorities; and "out where the
West begins" the excision is receiv-
ing considerable support. 1t is only
here in the effcte and effeminate
East that a shameful preference for
the historic and easily uttered and
comprehendcd mouthful is wit
messed.
We have always liked TINS assump-
ton that love is soft, effeminate
thing Why is tennis regarded by
some as ladylike game? Because
Glove" is in the scoring, exclaim
these red-corpuscled critics. Of
course. Love cannot conceivably be
masculine emotion or attribute.
Strong men may yield to it, they
may toy with it, even pretend to
feel it as an oblging and amiable
concession to please the dear, soft.
adoring creatures named women,
who must have love or they perish.
But left to themselves men would
be quite satisfied to catch wolves
alive and live in huts upon raw fish,
with nothing to read save books
upon iaguar hunting or selected
morsols from the novels of Rex
Beach and other examples of carniv-
0rous fiction.
1t Is beautiful aud true thought.
and ones only wonder is why our
California FREUD has not begun his
reform sooner and carried it out
more logically, Does he not play
that mans game, poker, with queens
in his deck? We fear that he must.
And what Of the silly, sentimental
ism, the preposterous efcminacy, of
having a home plate in baseball
Here is the most outrageous femi-
nism, smuggled into our national
game of games. Let California
initiate reform right here. Pluck
the home" out Of The diamond, and
the tennis court viii surely take
care of itself.
New-York tribune., 1920-01-31

1916 increased it nominally to about
175,000, but the increase hadn't
become effective in 1917. With the
existing rates of pay for army SER
vice, recruiting for the regular army
is difficult problem. Only a small
special class can be drawn OH for
long enlistments.
A regular army Is also very costly.
The cost Of an establishment Of
$4,000 men, such as the War De-
partment has favored, would be
nearly prohibitive, in view of the
results attained. For with $4,000
men we should have too big a garri-
son and police force and too small
force to be depended upon in any
real war.
The only practicable alternative is
to keep the regular army down to
less than 100000 and to rely on
compulsory training for An ample
reserve.
Since six months training is now
considered enough to give recruit
the elements of a soldiers education,
and each class goes after six
months into the reserve, a sufficient
