THE KNOX RESOLUTION VETOED.

President Wilson has vetoed the Knox
peace resolution in vigorous and NOV
ing message TO Congress. That message
is a singing reflection on the majority
members who voted for the passage Of
the resolution. There is altogether too
much point in its argument to justify
the hope that it viii improve the rela-
tions between the Executive and the
majority in Congress. The President
however, though he might have used
more placatory language, could not have
done otherwise than veto the resolution.
But this message, if il is all that he
has now to say upon the subject, leaves
the President open to the same criticism
that has frequently and justly been
made Of the United States Senate in
connection with IFS handling Of the
treaty question The Senate rejected
the Versailles treaty, but il did not say
what kind of treaty two-thlrds OF lts
members are prepared 10 accept. The
President has vetoed the Knox resoln-
ton, but he has not said explicitly what
kind Of treaty he is prepared 10 accept
Il is to be hoped that he will repair
this omission shortly. Baltimore sun.

PRESS COMMENTS.

Among the other claimants for repara-
lion damages is seen in Canada, truly, n
great sufferer in money and IN men lot the
common cause. The United States
stands alone in tho singular attitude OF
being aloof from repsration denands other
than for the actual destruction OF Ameri-
can ships and the like, mere matters Of
appetite naturalization. The claim OF
Canada is for losses sustained by the
Dominion and it's citizens and includes
Cost of war and rehabilitation, SLID

600: Halifax losses, $50, 600 900; army OF

HIRAM'S FAMILY QUARREL

Hiram " .Iohnson relieves the minds
Of lots OF hopeful Republicans with
the following announcement:
Il am now engaged IN family quarrel,
wholly a family quarrel, and when the
selection is made in Chicago IN two weeks
the quarrel will he ended.
This means. Of course. that Johnson
vii! not bolt hut will support the candidate
chosen and the platform adonted. 1t
stands for precisely the same attitude that
William Jennings Bryan took, when Par
kerw was nominated by the Democracy IN
1904. and made his own gold platform
Mr.. BRYAN did not bolt But those who
study election returns are convinced that
about 500. 900 Bryanites did bolt and
make Parker the worst beatenof Demo
cratic candidates.
There may even be mental reserva-
tions behind Johnson's personal dec,
laration. Suppose the convention should
nut the Taft view Of the League Of Ma
lions into the platform. Suppose Knox
or Allen or Coolidge should be the can
didate. With every fiber of his radical
ism and his Rooseyeltianism smarting
with indignation. one can imagine how
cordially johnson would work for the
party and the ticket.
But the Californian would hold IT
such a case that not he but the party
had bolted. And that would offer new
parallel with Mr. Bryan's position sixteen
years ago.-Brooklyn Daily Eagle.

The knowledge separate resolution for
the everlasting dishonor" of separate
peace with Germany passed the Republic
oan Senate by partisan vote. II Is so
futile as Senator Lodge once said such
peace would be dishonorsble, because 1t
WAS known il was unconstitutional and
that the President, under his oath OF office,
must veto it.
Senators Lodge, Knox and the other
Republican leaders responsible for TINS
act of ''dishonor" know that peace cannot
be made in such way: they pretended
sincerity, but it is only a sham that fails
to hide their zeal purpose. which IS 10

in deserving Americas comrades IN arms,
in abandoning the liberated peoples oil
Europe and betraying their own country
by their partisan warfare for selhsh
purposes.
Senator Knox agreed to the elimination
from the resolution of the irspudent clause
requesting the President to negotiate
new treaty with Germany, because, as ne
90 elegantly expressed it. "he did not
want to rub it in on the President. This
language of the gutter expresses strange
consideration on the part of Senate that
once caused one of it's emi,ssrles TO invade
the sick room at the White House IN an
attempt to discover either that the Presi-
dent wasn't i'll at all. but had been only
shamming or WAS bodily and mentally too
i'll to discharge the duties OF his Office.
It is no wonder President Wilson, IN
righteous Indignation, vetoed this miser-
able attempt to surrender to Germany
and throw away all the fruits OF the war.

On that occasion we bow our heads IN

made the supreme sacrifice 10 the war
that threatened to dismember our cher

SINCE been blotted out and the memory
Of each is revered alike. for sill were
Americans fighting for what eaeh sac

When Memorial Day was estaoiished

The Police Situation.

While it is regrettable that City Council
could not see its way clear TO allow the
Police Department all of the money 1t
asked for the next fiscal year, it is hoped
that it may yet be possible to accomplish
some of the departmental improvements
that had been hoped for.
Itsis g notorious fact that the police
force is too small. IN view OF the fact that
the pay and long hours are not attractive.
Had it been possible to increase the pay
and reduce the number of hours OF police
men. it might have been possible toTecruit
the force to the full strength. This might
have been done with either more nay or
shorter hours However, as neither is
Immediately in sight, the outlook IS not
encouraging. The only hope seems TO be
in saving sufficient sum now TO make II
possible, later on. 10 increase the force
and place the men on an eight-hour basis.
The Police Commission. it is known has
this thought in mind and is prepared to
make the change as soon as il can see its
way clear - do SO.
Council viii probably be able to SO
finance the department in the next fiscal
year as to provide permanently for full
force working on an eight-hour basis
