Local Daylight Saving.

When daylight saving was Iepcdicu
as a national measure sentiment de-
veloped in several states. notably those
including the larger cities, favorable
to re-enactment through state statutes.
New York did this and proclaimed a
change of hours on the basis Of the
old federal law to govern all business
within the state. Some cities also
adopted ordinances to the same effect.
New York's daylight saving system be-
gan last Sunday. Everything had
been done to reduce confusion to a
minimum. The stock exchange changed
its hours and the exchanges of many
other cities followed suit in conso-
nance. The railroads, though not al
tering their express schedules, changed
certain local trains to conform to the
New York time table. Nevertheless,
with New Jersey, Connecticut and
Pennsylvania holding to standard
time, much confusion has resulted.
SO serious, indeed. has been the COM
plication in some respects, with an
hours difference between New York
and it's neighbors with whom it has
such intimate relations, that already
a movement has been started to repeal
the law. On the first business day
after it took effect the state senate
passed, by vote of &c to IS, re-
pealing bill, and similar action is pre-
dicted for the house of representa-
tives. If this measure is thus passed
by both houses and is signed by the
governor New York's daylight saving
experiment will last about week.
The sentiment for daylight saving
has been expressed here. The mer-
chants of the city have proposed and
many other residents have indorsed a
plan for a strictly local change Of
time in the season of longer daylight.
This could be accomplished by statute
affecting only the District of Column
bia, by executive order changing the
hours of departmental opening and
closing, which would govern practical
ly all other local activities, or by a
general agreement without order to
change the clocks. The last named
expedient would, however, in the alb
senee of change of the official clocks,
be ineffective. To be practical it would
be necessary to change every clock in
the District, else there will be utter
confusion.
It is well that this local enterprise
has been held in abeyance to see the
effect of the experiment in New York
state. If that has failed it is hardly
to be expected that Washington will
be put on daylight-saving schedule.
Indeed. separated local movements of
this nature are handicapped by the
fact that the railroads will NOT adjust
to them. The daylight-saving system.
that lasted in this country two years,
was successful, SO far as it did meet
with success, only because Of its uni
versatility. It is to be regretted for
many reasons that Washington can
not change its own clocks and use the
longer daylight hours to better advan-
tage, but the difficulties in the way
seem insuperable.

credentials are doubtful and who in
any case cannot now be received as

Martens Arrest.

In arresting Ludwig c. A. K. Mar
tens, for deportation as an undesir.
able alien, the United States takes a
chance on giving offense to a govern
ment with which it is neither at peace
nor at war. Martens styles himself
envoy of the soviet government of
Russia. He has never been received
or in any way officially recognized.
Nor has the organization he claims to
represent been recognized by this
country. It is doubtful if the action
just taken will result harmfully,
though it may bring to focus trou-
blesome question.
Martens arrest was precipitated by
the discovery of documents revealing
plot for the overthrow Of the United
States government. These documents
were taken from a bolsheyik courier
on his way here. If the government
at Moscow is itself implicated in this
plot a step beyond the mere deporta-
tion of its alleged representative
would be demanded. If Martens on
hearing can demonstrate that he is not
implicated and that his government
has no cogniZance Of the conspiracy to
replace the United States government
with dictatorship Of tie proletar;at,
otherwise known as a soviet, he may

Little Folks Must Have Their
Easter.Hats

Who wants to start out in the
Easter sunshine wearing last Winters
hat? Nobody. That would be no fun
at all!
Dear little hats with fluttering
streamers and upturned brims are
ready for the tiny child of six or so
and are quite suitable for children up
to ten. Then come the simple little
straws and leghorns, often trimmed
with field flowers or with ribbon bows
and waving ends.
All-black hats have the virtue of
being very practical school hats.
They're most becoming, too, on bobbed
heads.
Prices start at $2.75 for plain little
sailors and mount gradually to $3.50
hats that junior girls will like.
