Within the Law

Must women remove tl cir hats in
court?. Two women in Chicago have
been fined for contempt of court
because they refused to do so. If
women can have equal suffrage with
men, the magistrate observed
"thcy can also remove their hats in
my courtroom"
is there not a conspicuous gar
in the judicial logic? Men remove
their hats to show respect, but Gus
tom does not dictate that women
shall show respect in this way. A
courtroom surely calls for no great
er reverence than a church. Yet
women, remembering, perhaps, the
familiar injunction Of St. Paul, have
commonly kept covered in the
churches.
A woman's hat plays an entirely
different role in etiquette from a
mans. Why this is so let some
deep thinker endeavor to discover
Moreover, American customs are not
those of other lands; hatless women
IN all places are a common sight
among the Latin peoples. But the
,1ght OF woman to wear her hat
where man does not wear his has
Tot hitherto been questioned. What
has equal suffrage to do with it?
Neither legal nor moral compul-
sion is of much avail when fashion
is concerned. 1t is safe guess thar
women will continue to wear their
hats on such occasions as they think
fit, judge or no judge.

While American men may, when tenn D.

recognized by Europeans that they are
somewhat shocked and astounded TO

The bewiderment of Baklanoff's

expel the Turkish and Soviet In
vaders. 1t is doing what it can,
however, to interpose a veto on the
destruction of Armenia. One por-
ton of the resolution adopted recon-
mends negotiation with the Turkish
Nationalists for evacuation. An
other urges the Council to find a
mandatory agent willing to go in
earnest to Armenia's relief.
Civilized opinion is not greatly
concerned with the ulterior motives
OF those who may be planning to
save Armenia by compelling a re-
opening of the Turkish settlement.
1t is concerned about rescuing a peo-
pie who have been to an exceptional
degree innocent victims Of the war.
Anything that the Assembly may do
to relieve and restore Armenia will
enhance its own credit in the eyes
Of the world.

east-bound on the northerly passage
from Nova Scotia to Cowes. She
twice ran into bad storms ON the
southerly route returning. Luck is
too large factor in such trips, as
the Bermuda races demonstrated on
a small scale. A few hours' delay, or
few miles alteration of course
may make the difference between a
safe and calm journey and desper-
ate battle with wind and sea.
OF course, ketch-rigged yacht as
stanchly built as the Typhoon can
cross the Atlantic. A much smaller
craft, with luck, could turn the trick.
Captain Slocum sailed the Seven Seas
alone for years in a boat but little
larger-only to disappear one day,
leaving no trace Of his end.
But taking such chances is not
sensible yachting, however glorious
as stunt. For every use the right
boat exists, and yachtsman who
takes a boat out of its proper habi-
tat is toying with fate. Enterprising
youngsters have sailed round Cape
Cod in a canoe and lived to tell
the tale, but the enterprise cannot

Deep-Sea Yachting

AS sporting feat involving cour-

the thirty-six-foot ketch Tvphoon
across the Atlantic and back again
was success to be proud Of. AS an
example for other yachtsmen to fol-
low it cannot be said to offer much
allurement.
Such experiences as that of the
gale encountered on the Gulf Stream
are wonderful things to chew over in
the cabin after ones anchor is safely
dropped in sheltered port. They
are little too much like putting
ones head in lions jaws to be
worth while at the time. The

country a class has secured control
of the courts and uses them to ad-
vance class interests. Many men Of
sober minds have been disturbed as
they heard facts tending to show
that Mooney had been "railroaded." /"
The whole tenor Of the evidence sug-
gested to the average person that
the prosecutions case was bottomed
on perjury-that there was more
than doubt of Moneys guilt.
1t is not possible to review in a
single article the vast mass Of the
testimony. 1t is perhaps enough to
say that it is difficult to read it with
out persuasion that Mooney was not
shown to be connected with the Pre-
paredness Day murders and that he
was probably attacked because he
was an obnoxiously blatant labor
agitator who was held to deserve
punishment on general principles.
On the same evidence on which he
was convicted co-defendants we're
acquitted. The trial Judge declared
he was convinced there had been a
miscarriage Of justice. The Supreme
Court Of the state, although holding
the trial entirely regular, indicated
that il it were permissible to enter
into its merits it would grant new
trial. Not only Policeman Hand but
many other confessing witnesses
have supported the allegation that
deliberate conspiracy to convict ex-
listed and that men of power became
so involved in it that their only per
sonal safety was in preventing q
new trial
The cause Of revolutionary radi-
callsm has been served by the long
resistance to new trial. Conversely
the cause of conservatism has been
injured. If it shall finally appear
that Mooney is innocent it will be a
line thing to say that the American
instinct for fair play is so strong
that it pushes aside all impediments
in its way and finds ways to vindicate
the true majesty Of the law.

Completing the Victory

There is no mortgage on the Re-
publican party or it's successful can
didates, as Mr.. Will Hays we'll says.
Thanks to his democratic, open-and-
above-board method of financing the
campaign, no rich men or large in
terests have the shadow of right to
q larger voice in The decisions of
the coming Administrative than any
citizen. And the campaign cost was
model of economy-not $15 100000.
as Mr.. Cox shouted, or $50 ,0O0,OO
as Mr. Franklin Roosevelt dreamed.
but $3,400,000, as Mr.. Hays pre-
dicted.
This voluntary limiting of the size
of individual contributions to $1,000
IS landmark in the publication Of
our national politics. 1t is not too
much to assert that it has accom-
pllshed as much as all TIE corrupt
practices acts put together.
There remains only the task of
completing the needed fund by more
small contributions. We are sure
that every Republican appreciates
the value of the new system. We
urge every member Of the party to
give what he can to complete the
JOB. Of the total expenditure of
about $3,4oo,ooo, $2,OO0,ooo has thus
far been raised from more than
$4,000 separate contributions. The
$l,5OO,OO0 remaining can be raised
easily If every Republican will chip
in. Checks should be sent to Fred
W. Upham, treasurer, or James G.
Blaine jr., Eastern treasurer, at 19
West Forty-fourth Street, this city.
Send your check in to-day-no
matter how small, if it is in proper
ton to Your ability to help. The Re
publican victory was d victory Of the
rank and file, and it is their checks
which are especially desired.

Aid to Armenia

The League Assembly showed a
flash Of genuine feeling in It's reac-
ton to the Armenian problem. Ar
menla, one of the tragedies Of the
war, remains tragedy Of the peace.
Tens of thousands of her people were
massacred by the unspeakable Turk
were sacrificed to his racial tsnd
religious fanaticism.
In 1916 Russia elected the Turk
ish armies from Armenia and after
the Russian withdrawal from the
war the remainder of the Armenians
formed a state of their own, lying
partly in Asiatic Turkey and
partly IN territory to the east of the
prewar Turkish Russian boundary
The defeat Of the Central Powers
seemed to insure the creation of a
permanent Armenia. The provi-
sional republic was recognized by the
Allies, and though delays in the con-
clusion Of a treaty with Turkey al
lowed Mustapha Pasha to seize part
of western Armenia, the Allied Coun-
Gil finally decided that President
Wilson should draw the boundaries
Of an Armenian state whose indie
pendence was to be recognized and
guaranteed as part of the Near
Eastern settlement.
Before these boundaries have been
announced the Armenian Republic
has virtually disappeared. The
Turkish Nationalists, on the one
side, and the Russian Reds, on the
other, have squeezed it to death. The

MONEYS New Trial

At last there is promise Of San
Francisco promoting and supporting
An investigation of the conviction Of
Thomas j. Mooney, now serving a
life term in the penitentiary and
long under a sentence Of death.
There have been many prior IN
quiries, but unfortunately they were
energlzed from the outside. Although
they all reached the conclusion that
Mooney was unjustly convicted, and
gave good reasons for the belief. San
Francisco, suspicious Of dictation,
hardened her heart.
This time, however, the voluntary
confession of Policeman Hand, who
was actively connected with the prep
aration Of the police case against
Mooney, has aroused no local preju-
dice, and new District Attorney
wholesomely shows he is not con-
cerned to cover up the alleged crine
OF his predecessor. A special grand
jury has been appointed to inquire
INTO the veracity Of the Hand state
ment, and there is no reason to doubt
the good faith of its labors.
But legal wrong, it would seem,
is easier to commit in San Francisco
than to undo. 1t is legally impossi-
bic now to give Mooney a new trial
directly, no matter how gross the
"frame-up" Of him may be shown to
be; but new trial can in effect be
secured If he is pardoned by the Gov
ernOr and is then put on trial on one
Of the many untried indictments re-
turned against him.
A just solution of the Mooney case
is highly important. His conviction
has been prop to every radical agi-
tator. It has furnished a plausible
basis for the charge that in this

That Small Deposition
He Returns TO His Criticism, of Large
Bonks
To tho Editor of The Tribune.

L30nfS
To tho Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May I take the liberty, through
your paper, Of answering Mr.. Thomas
c. Jefferies's letter Of November is, in
answer to mine published under date
of the 11th, as we'll as asking some
further questions1
What object to is the fact that you
are simply not welcome. You secure
reference, and the account may be
opened without q word as to balance.
but you feel you are ont of place the
first time you deposit your small saw
ings when the man in front Of you
has a few thousand and those behind
you have bankbooks bulging out with
money and checks. You know you arc
out of place and it is pure favor that
you are allowed to bank there.
Still, when you stop to consider, one
feels that he should be as welcome as
the other and there should be no
small bank in smaller city would
welcome same. Why should there be
any great difference in the overhead Of
the small banks and the large banks,
with the exception of the rental? The
overhead expenses, such as clerical,
primary and subsidiary expenses, sal
aries of executives, etc, are all in pro-
portion to the amount Of business done
in each case, and as it is an accented
view that efficiency lowers the over
head Of any business, the large banks
OF this city being considered among the
most efficient and up to date, one
therefore feels that the larger banks
should be in better position to &C.
cept small accounts without any charge
than the smaller banks.
Why should all the banks in New
York City be for the large depositors
only? trust you will not misinterpret
such a question as some sort Of 30
cialism or class distinction, as / don't
IN the least begrudge the banks
carrying on their business with a few
large accounts and as few small ac-
counts as possible. But is there any
need OF erecting banks on every corner
Tor only select few? Let's have a
Few for the small depcsitor.
From Mr.. Jefferies's letter I take It
he has assumed that I am talking for
myself, but this is not the case. as I
can furnish sufficient reference to open
an account tomorrow in almost anv
bank; but what I meant and wanted
to do IN my letter of the 18th was to
try to arouse interest enough 30 that
banking institutions might consider
opening branches. These branches need
not be on Fifth Avenue or in marble
and bronze front buildings, with
gorgeous fittings inside, but should be
OF such character and carried on under
such business policy that the ex-
2ense of issuing checks would not
-ange from three to five cents. using

An American PericIes
4 Plea for a Secrctuvship Of
Fine Arts

Fine Arts
To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Mrs. Gertrude Vanderbilt Whit
ney, in her series Of articles on "The
End Of Americas Apprenticeship in
Art" published in Arts and Decoration,
has TO every unprejudiccd mind proved
her thesis, i. e., that this country,
technically at least, has come to mans
estate in the domain of art. The lead
ership Of the world having been literal
ly thrown at US during the first two
decades of this century in go many
fields, have We the right to shrink
from the privilege and duty of becom-
ing also gradually the protagonist
among the nations Of the earth in the
domains of art education and the de-
velopment Of art?
1t will take Europe decades to re
cover entirely from the politico-eco-
nomic and spiritual uph eaval of 1914
20. Islam and, perhaps with the ex-
ception of Japan, the whole non-Tslamic
Orient continue to indulge in their age
long esthetic drowsiness. Remains our
own continent in tho present world
constellation to play the part which
had been assumed, in the dominion Of
art, by republican and imperial Rome
after the dissolution Of Hellenic and
Helenistic culture.
President-elect Harding has tho op-
portunity, If he has the stuff In him,
to develop gradually into a kind Of
Yankee Pericles Of the twentieth CEN
tury by creating q secretaryship Of
hne arts and by grouping around this
new state department the artistic ac-
tlyltles of our own country and by
drawing, in the course OF time, into it's
enchanted circle the muses. Of Canada
and SpanishAmerica, this new depart
ment to become, in word, kind of
artistic annex to the Pan-American
union.
We have from Maine to California
scores Of excellent schools and So
cleties Of art, dozens of museums Of
art, hundreds Of art lovers and art
dealers, thousands Of artists painting
and hammering away in their studios
and garrets, and we have more than
100000 rich and highly educated fam
lilies in this country eager, or at least
ready, to contribute their share to its
artistic development; this continent of
ours, finally. is the most beautiful piece
OF land and water that issued from
I Gods geological workshop, a vast art
studio and art object, two in one. All
We need is powerful mind to energize
all these individual potentialities.

portunity by enriching the history Of

Daniels 8 Belated Bravery

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The situation recently arisen at
Annapolis is convincing proof that de-
moralization, the very flower and fruit
of the Daniels policies, has permeated
the battalion OF midshipmen as well as
he rank and file outside.
If in 1915 Daniels had let il be
known that political pull could not
save any one from dismss who had
been guilty of cheating by the use Of
stolen examination papers, these three
youngsters would have known exactly
where they stood. But no. He let
politics take charge. And in conse-
quence midshipmen have become in
doctrnated with the conviction that
infraction of the rules is as nothing
compared with political pressure put
upon the Secretary OF the Navy by
friends at home and their representa-
tives in Congress. The Tribune is
right. A little bravery in 1915 would
have saved Daniels's buster now.

take to repair the damage which Dan
iels has done our navy during his re-
