A National Leprosarium.

In the announcement made by the Public
Health Service that Louisiana site has been Sc
lected for the location of National Leprosarium,
there is than ordinary interest First of all.
this is because the Louisiana site offers the only
place in North America to which the government
invited to come The location selected is the
former State colony for lepers, where more than a
hundred people have been in residence and cared
for under State supervision.
Few people in North America realize that there
are one or more lepers in twenty different States Of
the Union, and leading experts estimate the total
number OF people in the United States who are
afflicted with leprosy anywhere from 500 to $500
As matter of selfprotection the public could do
less than arrange to segregate the lepers OF the
United States, in order to stay the spread Of the
disease. 1t has been shown in other countries that
the establishment Of segregation camps will most
effectively eradicate leprosy. While this is in mind
ultimate objective, it is good to realize that
lepers in the United States being treated hu-
beings. and longer will it be necessary to
have such startling headlines appear in the news
papers "Leper at Large in this City" "Leper
Escapes from Guard" etc, for there is place
where these leprous people may be cared for hui
namely and it is TO be done under the direction
OF the United States Public Health Service.
This is but beginning in the program OF win
ming governments in all lands and humane citizens
everywhere, to a combined effort for the care OF
two million lepers, which, it is estimated, is the
probable number scattered through the length and
breadth OF the world
Leprosy is only ieeby contagious, and then by
prolonged contact For this reason alone it is un-
scientific and inhuman to regard the lepcr as an
outcast

Magic Charms Fail.

Russia is facing its fourth winter of starvation
since the Bolsheviki began their disastrous expert
ment in materialistic autocracy. The law Of eco
nomic productivity the law of and effect, the
law of all mems longing for freedom, has each in
turn been ordered by the Soviet Missionaries to
operating. For time, appearance was deceitful,
and the Russian people seemed to believe Lenine
and Trotsky had discovered how to outwit God and
Nature.
But, the relentless consequences of mankind's
ever returning efforts to substitute magic charms
for solid work are at last making themselves known
to the Russian people Three winters of starvation
have passed and the written rules the book Of for
muas, the doctrine of words instead of work,
proving unable to hold in check fourth winter Of
the same terrible poverty.
Herbert Duckworth, this newspapers special
correspondent the first reporter venturng into
Russia who below the surface and discovered
Bolshevism's loosenng hold. His finding started
others on the way The evidence is now becoming
well nigh unanimous that Duckworth saw straight
and that Bolshevsm can endure but little longer.
Either Lenine and Trotsky must change their
methods of government they will be thrown to
earth. They would have gone before this, but that
Russia has been weakened almost to exhaustion by
the rule OF the Sovets Perhaps it is too late
for them to save their necks. however much they
may bow to the coming storm. But whether they
survive or no, the Soviet system OF autocracy is
doomed.

HARDING's WAR VOTE.

10 the Editor OF The Herald:
Sir-I want to silence some un-
fair critics of Senator Harding. who
say he voted for war with Germany
because he was then pro- British,
although he is anti-league OF ma
tiOns now.
This is why Senator Harding vot-
ed for war. according to the Of
fCial record:
i want it known to the people
of my State and to the nation that
l am voting for war tonight for the
maintenance of just American
rights. which is the first essential
to the preservation of the soul OF
this republic. In the
grave situation that l full well
realize, with the understanding of
every responsibility that goes with
the vote, / voted for this joint res
olution to make war - not a war
thrust upon us, If l could choose
the language of the resolution, but
a war declared in response TO af-
fronts; a war that will at least put
n soul into our American life; a
war not for the cause OF the allies
in Europe: a war not for France,
beautiful as the sentiment may be
IN reNlNlng at least our gratitude
to the French people; not precisely
a war for civilization, worthy and
inspiring as that would be; but a
war that speaks for the majesty
of a people popularly governed who
finally are brought to the crucial
test where they are resolved to set
together and wage conflict for
the maintenance of their rights and
the preservation of the covenant
inherited from the fathers.
1T has come to US to unsheathe
the sword again, not alone for hu-
manity's sake-though that splen-
did inspiration will he involved
but to unshoathe the sword against
a great power in the maintenance
of the right of the republic, in that
maintenance which will give us a
new guarantee of nationality. That
is the great thing. and I want it
known, Mr.. President and Senators,
that this is the impelling thought
with me for one when ! cast my
vote" T. E. MANSELL.

This is the answer given by Eugene V Debs,
Socialist candidate for President from his cell in
Atlanta penitentiary, in answer to the National
Campaign Committee OF the Socialist party which
asked him to define his position on the Third or
Communist Internationale organized by Lenne,
Trotsky and company at Moscow.
Debs answer shows realization that America
and Americans can never be won by program OF
violent revolution which has as its object the in
sallation OF the Soviet system in the United States
Debs knows that the program OF the Moscow In

Notes BY a Washington Observer
Bishop Has Unique Record

The Right Rev. Herbert Bury, d.
D., Bishop for Europe-to give him
his official title-who will preach at
the Forthcoming 225th anniversary
of Christ Church, Philadelphia, is
one of the worlds picturesque cler-
gymen. He was cattle-ranching in
Argentina just before he was or
dained an Anglican priest in 1878.
Few British churchmen have had
so international an experience. For
three years U90S-1911) DR.. Bury was
Bishop of Honduras. He is an OK
ford man and, has travelled pretty
much all over the world. Russian
Life Today" is one of his books,
and "A Bishop Among Bananas"
which tells of his sojourn in Cen
trail America, is another. DR.. Bury's
domicile is in London. but he spends
virtually all of his time touring
the Anglican communities of North
ern and Central Europe, of which
he is bishop. He rendered eminent
service during the war, by frequent
visits to enemy prison camps in
which Britishers were interned. His
experiences in Germany are mar
rated in a book entitled My Visit
to Ruhleben," the great barracks
for British civilians near Berlin.
Few trains leave Washington
nowadays that are not taking tenn
porary residents Of the District of
Columbia to home-towns for regis
tration and voting. The novelty of
mems trips this year is the fact
that they are accompanied by their
wives. home bound on the same
mission bent. Robert Lansing, for
mer Secretary of State, has just
gone to. Watertown, n. Y, to fulfill
his suffrage functions. Mrs. Ian
