Teasing the Mayor

Mayor Hylan continues to give tes-
timony under high emotional pres
sure. He has the explosive habit.
The Hylan brand Of TINT has been
made familiar in letters, speeches,
epithetical exchanges at the meet
ings of the Board of Estimate and
Apportionment and, once more, on
the witness stand. Most of his
bombs are "duds," however. He
threw one at Mr.. Untermyer on
Thursday which went dead, for the
Lockwood committee inquisitor has
been able to show at once by his own
correspondence With Hylan that he
hadn't been working for increased
subway fares.
Why is bis honor so overwrought?
He keeps saying to his tornent9r;
"Youre not going to put anything
over on me. If you've got anything,
PRODUCED produce. The quicker the
better"
Is there q haunting fear in the
back Of the witnesses mind that other
Hylan letters are tucked away in
the Lockwood committees box? A
bomber who is waiting for real
bomb to explode in his neighborhood
gets nervous and impatient. Sup
pose that there is another letter ex-
tant like that which Hettrick gave
the Mayor and the latter made his
own without a quiver and then sent
to the Board of Education. This
document was curiously missing in
the correspondence which Mr.. Hylan
read on the stand. Afterward it
came to light.
Possibly the Mayor suspects that
Mr.. Untermyer's locker is stocked
with more explosives. 1t is cruel to
prolong the agony of a witness who
would feel like a new man if he
knew definitely that there was moth
ing worse to come. Is there glee-
full premeditation in Mr.. Untermyer's
deliberate methods? Suspense is dra-
matte. But it is hard on the victim
of the dramatist's art.

Do It TODAY

Although more than half the
allotted time has expired, collections
for the Red Cross have reached only
one-quarter of the 100000 hoped
for in New York County.
Perhaps the small amount of the
contribution is because, now that the
war Is over, people fail to realize
that the American Red Cross still
functions, not only in reconstruct
tion work in Europe, famine-ridden
China and war-racked Russia, but
right here at home. The peace pro-
gram in New York City includes
aid to veterans and their families,
especially where the War Risk In
surance and Vocational Educational
bureaus are unhappily slow in oper-
ating; preparation for sudden disas-
ter, and the establishment Of health
centers in congested sections.
The work of these health centers
alone Is especially commendable
There are seventy-fivc of them,
where mothers may take their chill
dren for examination and treatment
when necessary. Here, too, the vari-
GUS health activities of the neigh
borhood cooperate for greater eff
cheney. Fees may be paid or not
paid, as the financial condition of the
mother may warrant. The COM
munity spirit is deepened, because a
common bond is developed in the
effort to lit the standard of child
health.
Do not wait for the Red Cross COL
lector. Send IN your annual sub
scription of ST., or whatever more
you consider your share, and do it
to-day.

Letters to the President

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: There must be many thousands
Of devoted adherents Of President Will
son who regret that they were unable
to join in the demonstration of loyalty
to him at Washington Move mber 4.
We read Of how he was brought in his
wheelchair to the east portico Of the
White House and sat in silence, watch
ing the throng that gathered on the
lawn to testify to their faith in the
League Of Nations, and to the great
leader who for it has fought the good
fight, even down to the gates Of death.
Many other men and women the
country over must long to give express
sion to their affection for Mr.. Wilson
and his ideals. Would it not be a fit
ting and acceptable tribute if they
would write brief letters to the Prcsi-
dent, assurances Of fidelity to what he
stands for and the ultimate triumph
of his aims?
These are dark and disheartening
days, when he must crave sympathy
and affection as never before. He is
broken in health, cut off from compan-
lonship, accomplishing. unconquered
and unconquerable, noble but
tragic figure. Win not the readers of
The Tribune who revere and honor him
pay their personal tribute, write to
him what is in their hearts, let him
know the affection and admiration
which he has inspired in them? To
give the proposal a more definite shape,
| would suggest that the letters be
sent as Thanksgiving Day messages.

capacity. The merchant tonnage is
now approximately the same as be-
fore the war.
Coal production is now at the
rate of s0,oo0,0oo tons year,
against about half Of this two years
ago. During the first nine months
of 1920 France trimmed 100000
O00 francs, compared with the same
months Of 1919, from her adverse
balance of trade. Her freight car
loadings are now $500 cars a day,
against $1,000 in May last. The
public revenues for the first nine
months of 1920 have exceeded the
revenues for the same months in
1919 by $4,000, 100000 francs.
This inventory of progress is
lyrical in it's items. It shows what
a great people can do when it's will
is enlisted. For what France has
done she has done practically with
out help. Intact and unravaged
Germany thus far has successfully
lodged payment of the debt justly
due from her and which she has
pledged herself to meet. With her
own hands, though one-half her
man power was either gone or
crippled, France has done the work
Of rehabilitation. Her accomplish
ments are such as rather to shame
the peoples which have grumbled
excuses for their sloth.

Curing Heartbreak

When Bernard Shaw is artist he
is a great reformer. When he turns
outspoken reformer he stirs a world
of dust but gets nowhere. Which is
to say that the only reforming that
accomplishes is that creative criti-
cism which does not attempt to raze
existing customs and rebuild q new
and ideal structure but which SIM
ply pushes a little further our
knowledge of ourselves, thus en-
abling us to add a millimeter to our
stature-perhaps.
Both Shaws are in "Heartbreak
House" Some critics have urged
every one to read the preface before
seeing the play. Poor advice, this.
for all the Shaw prefaces represent
Shaw the didactic, the Utopian.
There is plenty Of entertainment in
these writings. If only all preach
ing were equally brilliant and anus
ing! But the other Shaw, the
dramatic artist who can create Can
dida' and the waiter in "You Never
Can Tell" and Captain Shotover in
"Heartbreak House. of the
mnst gorgeous of all the Shaw crea
tions-has something far better than
any preachments to present. Here is
life itself in its essences and signif-
cant elements. These characters
have eternal truth to enact before
one. What they say and do is un
forgettable, and their art should GER
tainly not be clouded or distorted by
MARKHAM sermons, even though writ
ten by the same brilliant hand that
gave these characters life.
BY reason of its preface Heart

Here's to the Dog!
With Reflections Upon The UntruIh
of LANGUAGE

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: have been listening with inter
est to the protests against any attack
on the dog which are being voiced
through your columns.
How can any one who knows dogs
dislike them? Who that has had a
dog friend can indict his species? 1t
has always been mystery to me why
it is a reproach TO call a man "dog"
or hound" OF all the dogs l have
known intimately-a and from my carli-
est recollection we always had two and
often four around the house-none ever
exhibited the qualities man must ex-
hibit in order to be styled dog"
Faithful, loving, never intrusive, al
ways quiet and obliging, willing to do
what you want him to do and never
talking back, asking only the satisfying
of the simplest needs, true to death and
beyond it, how often do you see q dog
at whom you might cry You yellow
human being!"
If l don't stop I shall begin telling
you about Snow and Daniel Webster
Webb for shor) and Dusty and all
the others. But when we build our
house in the country, the most i'm
portant thing to my husband and me
is fireplace and the next a dog-a
collie or water spaniel or Boston
bull-to lie in front of it, We don't
own any here, for it's cruelty to
real dog 1--WE don't want powder puff
to house him in city fiat.
And, by the way, don't all of you who
love dogs, or love to read about them,
enjoy Albert Payson Terhune's dog
stories? | have just finished one he
has in the December Peoples Maga-
zine. Here's to the dog!

Woman, Dog and Hickory Tree

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: have been interested In the
letters appearing relative to our best
friend. the dog. In Hats OF to the
Dog" the writer says, Treat him half
way right and he will give you all his
love and DEVOTION" but the average
dog gives his love and devotion to
folks who ili-treat him. The more
unkindly he is treated the more faith
full he Is.
/ love dogs. l have always had a
dog in my home until a year or two
ago. The reason l have none now is
that we loved our last dog too much
to have another. We had to chlsro-
form him, and it was like putting one
Of our own out of the way.
He is, indeed, mans best and most

haters" A DOG LOVER

cized. In 1t speaks the Shaw who
did all he could do dull the Allied
bugles calling to battle--who, like SO
many other intellectuals, was unable
to feel the instructive moral issue OF
the Great War because of the theo-
ries spun about it. But to see the
play is to draw far different i'm
preston, full Of poignant truth. 1t
is to see portrayed with the hand Of
genius that peculiar heedlessness
and Indifference which is SO grave a
symptom in modern England and
which Americans can recognize in
their land as we'll. Fantasy, alle-
CORY, is the method in part;
strange, nightmarish sense of un-
reality flows from the exaggeration.
But the total impression left by the
satire, it's characters, it's drama, is
clear and unforgettable. Granted
that Shaw has overdrawn his case
to make his point, there are too
many heartbreak days in every ma
tion of the world to deny his main
thesis.
We have only one quarrel with
the lines of the play. That is it's
moral as put into the mouth of Cap
tain Shotover. When the young
wasters Of the play. ask him, in that
last scene, when the heavens fall,
what they shall do to save England,
he replies "Study navigation" Well,
charting the course of a nation is
not as simple as this phrase sounds.
Would we be any better off if we
studied Marx on world navigation,
for instance? Not if the wreck of
Russia has any meaning. The true
lesson Of the play, and it is wholly
implicit, is not to study navigation
but to mind ones job, we should say.
If every man did his duty there
would be no difficulty in saving the
ship that is England-or the ship
that is America. "Live, work, play
your part" is the one answer to
heartbreak and the one way to avoid
disaster, according to Shaw the
artist.

Non-Moving Goods

In these columns, from time to
time, issue has been taken with the
Federal Reserve Board on some of
its policies; it has handled both in
flation and defation badly. But the
assertion now made in some quar-
ters, namely, that because bank loans
have not come down with prices the
system has wholly failed, seems un-
just.
The failure Of loans to come down
with prices is due to two things
over which the board has no con-
troll; the first is that contraction in
prices must always precede contrac-
ton in loans by considerable time ;
the second is that on this occasion
the liquidation of goods has proba-
bly, not been as great as many sup
pose. Even at the low levels now
prevailing in many commodities,
goods are not moving, or are moving
slowly. In many cases goods arc
still in the hands of those who held
them before prices were slashed :;
the owners, being unable to sell, have,
Of course, been unable to liquidate
their loans to an important extent.
Not until retail prices are such
as to stimulate demand sufficiently
to move stocks, thus opening the
way for purchases from the manu-
facturers and wholesalers, will this
deadlock be broken.

The Circunascyibed Doctor
Unable 10 DO Anything Without q
Report or Permission


To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The requirements for a medical
degree have rightly been made more
rigorous, but in this era Of high costs
two to four years of academic work,
four years Of medical training and one
year of interneship cannot 90 other
wise than limit the material available
for prospective NJ. DIS, taking into ac-
count tho greatly increased cost of
equipment for beginning practice.
But believe there are other reasons.
also. Unfortunately for the practitioner,
q medical diploma no longer means what
it says. Not to-day is he given Insignia
ct Decora, Jura ct Privilegia Omnesque
Honores ct Utilitates quae aut hic
aut ubique gentiun ad eundem Gradum
evectis concedi solent." On the contrary,
the general practitioner is so hedged
about with restrictions, gradually null
tiplying, that about all the activity left
to him is that Of an agent for the re-
ferring of cases to this or that specialist
or hospital, as his judgment or prejudice
may dictate.
The Federal government compels him
to keep strict and accurate account of
every fraction of a grain of narcotic
used i'll his practice, with a special Ii
cense (another fee) for permission to
&,
thus restricted and taxed for the privi-
lege of relieving suffering. The same
authority also requires another special
license for prescribing alcohol, with very
in every case. One pint in ten days is
the limit, a rule unchanging as the laws
Of the Medes and Persians. 1t would
seem that if a patient suffering from
ry@mia or pneumonia needs one pint
his condition is so desperate that he will
need more in a few days, but it is alb
solutely prohibited. In ten days the next
pint may possibly relieve the mourning
friends, but hardly the patient.
In this state there are thirty-fve
diseases, ranging from chickenpox and
mumps to smallpox and cholera, which
the doctor is compelled to report to the
State Department OF Health within
twenty-four hours.
In addition, there are other restric-
tions practically imposed by various
specialist organizations. The time seems
coming, if it is not already here, when
simple surgical operation is forbidden
the practitioner unless he is member
of powerful surgical organization and
on hospital stsH. The hospital staff, in
many of the smaller hospitals at least,
is appointed by board Of laymen, and
fortunate is the practitioner indeed
who has the skill (and influence) to Sc
cure an appointment thereon.
AS you suggest, perhaps greater pub
lie aid to medical education may be the
only solution of the problem of the
shortage of doctors, but am inclined
to believe that a fair field and no favor
in the medical profession OF to-day
would also be a factor worta considera-

At the Navy Club
o the Editor of The Tribune

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Allow me to correct the er-
roneous impression created by my
letter in o-day's Tribune to the effect
that donations are desired for the
Thanksgiving dinner and entertain
ment for enlisted men, to which
wounded from the nearby hospitals
will also be invited.
The donations are desired in order
that men in the hospitals who have no
other pleasant, homelike place to go
may be entertained at the. club with
the regular enlisted men. These al
ways prefer paying for their food.
