The public takes very kindly to that

They feel that the man whose

LOST OPPORTUNITY.

As time passes and the opportunity
is given American people to carefully
consider il, the belief is rapidly gain
ing ground that Robert Lansing, for
mer secretary of state. let slip from
his grasp an opportunity to become
the dominant figure in the Demo
cratic party, That opportunity was
omnipitent for some time before Will
son suddenly dismissed Lansing from
a cabinet position. Today, while Am.
orleans marvel at the self eentered
sentiments which promptly Woodrow
Wilson to discredit man who did no
more than his duty. they also recog-
nice that Lansing advocated anr up
held a foreign policy Of merit and one
that would have met with general ap-
proval.
Robert Lansing was right, Faith
full to a duty for the nations welfare
and submitting to a dictation that
must have been irksome, Lansing de
voted his best efforts to the interests
of this nation. He deserved a better
reward than to await the hour OF
reckoning with his petulant chief.
And right there, Robert Lansing
failed to seize an opportunity that
comes once only. Had he, two weeks
before Wilson asked rendered his res
ignation. giving briefly and clearly. the
reasons, Lansing today would have
stood alone among Democratic leaders
Sentiment. even Democratic senti-
ment, is ehbing from Wilson. Never
again will the present president OF the
United States dictate his party's pol
icy. To Lansing was extended that
chance of a lifetime to crystalline a
rapidly rising wave of opposition to
Woodrow Wilson into formidable
Democratic wall. opposed to Wilson's
dominance. popularity, supported and
erected on rocks of Americanism.
Lansing TODAY is merely thought OF
as a Wilson tool. man who. failing
to follow blindly his chief, was cast
aside. He is headed, we believe, for
oblivion. He missed his chance. Per
raps he was not big enough for the
opportunity which was presented.

LOOKING FORWARD.

the modern method OF running a
city's busincss1 Is there elsewhere
an American institution operating
from year to year, from generation
to generation, comparable to a mod
ern business OF expanding public funds
through the agency Of city govern
ment2 Can we elsewhere find bust
ness of such magnitude operating un-
der the guidance of such poorly paid
managers, operating without a policy,
a day to day existence? Is II any
wonder that we are want to look upon
civic enterprise as being Americas
poorest venture in business? Can you
name single successful private bust
ness enterprise conducted along anal
agous lines that has long survived
We doubt il.
The Tribune holds that so long az
individuals. no matter how competent
or successful they may be in private
business. no matter how sincere an in
tention they possess to give their best
efforts to advancing the interests of a
municipality are elected at frequent
intervals to serve as public servants.
without pay just so long can we ex-
pect to have city business, everybody
business and nobody's business. The
very fact that a man hold office for so
short time is proof sufficient that a
municipality cannot get such results
such as come through long experience
with business.
Make no mistake. The Tribune has
no quarrel with the men Caldwell vo
tiers have elected to conduct their civ
ic affairs. So far as We are informed,
Caldwell today has men directing her
business who are little better and no
worse than those who have served in
the same capacity before. Nor have
we any material complaint regarding
methods they have employed in con
Quoting the city business. What we
do argue is that no group OF men
however capable, can be expected TO
get results with a business of magni-
tude when they devote one or two
evenings a month to il. It's the sys-
tenn, not the men. which Is wrong.
But today we are looking forward
to something definite to result from
the almost spontaneous demand for a
definite program of civic improve
ments. Surely we. can expect thai
much. No man questions the wis.

said to have been one of the largest
paradcs, numerically, ever held in New

There were empty sleeves and

There also was an array Of medals in
which was represented nearly every

The head of the parade reached the

section comprised the wounded men
and vehicles carrying other deloga-
tions. 1t provided the pathos Of the
occasion, and also furnished the COM
edy Of the day. Free of the restric-
tons imposed upon the marchers, the
wounded men and others at the head
OF the parade reverted boisterously to
the days OF trench, rest camp and can

and caught sight of Mayor Hylan there
were cries of Hey, Mike When do

The Friends OF Irish Freedom took
