BAKERS HYPOCRISY

Secretary of War Baker tries to
create the impression that with the
United States in the league OF nations
American armaments could be ma
terially reduced. IF we do not go in
to the league of nations" he declares.
I'VE must continue to arm. If we are
TO play a lone hand it must be a strong
hand" Let us see about that. Last
summer the president, Mr.. Baker, and
all the rest of them were quite conf
dent that the league covenant would he
ratified and the United States would
become member. WhereupOn the
secretary of war became very urgent
in his accommodations to Congress for
an army of about 100000 men, The
senate refused to ratify the covenant
and congress promptly reduced the
proposed army to about $4,000 men.
Which is the exact reversal in practice
of the theories now prOpounded by Mr..
Baker.

commission which thereby loses Cabi-
net representation. Indeed, the change
In the principle of selection ought to
count for increased efficiency. In
selecting Postmaster General, for
example, the President is obliged to
consider not only the candidates fit
ness for the special administrative
task but also his acceptability as a
personal adviser in the most intimate
of official relations. 1t Is easy to
imagine dozens of cases in which the
country would get better bureau OF
commission heads If the choice were
not complicated by the dual capacity
which Is involved In the Secretary's
presence in the Cabinet.
Five would be am ideal number for
the Presidents official family. Six
would correspond to the size of the
Cabinet during more than half CEN
fury of its existence. The problem
of the redistribution of the various
bureaus, commissions and boards with
a view to the restriction of the Cabi-
net to reasonable dimensions Is capa-
BILE of many solutions, any one Of
which, no doubt, is better than that
which we have indicated.
But it must be obvious to every in
telligent and disinterested mind that
something will have to be done to
preserve the Presidential Cabinet
from the ridiculous fate of gradual
development into dellberative assem-
bly, of about the size of the United
States Senate in the first years of
the Republic.

Pay of Food Producers.
Wages of Labor on the Farms and on
the Railroads Compared.

To THE New YORK HERALD: You say
II is impossible to get men born in this
country to do the hard work on the
farm and chat there would be a great
shortage of food were immigration to
stop. 1 reply that Il is possible to get
good Americans to do farming. but they
want to be treated right and paid in
accordance with the pay of other labor.
II the farmer could pay the same scale
to his laborer as Is paid to the lowest
paid labor connected with a railroad
the section man--and could allow the
man full time and a good place to sit
when the weather is bad. and II the
farmer himself could draw pay equal to
that of the section boss for his own
work and his work in managing his
farm, and II in addition he had a net
6 per cent. return on his investment,
there would be no shortage of food TX
the elements showed the least bit of
favor
suppose no such thing will happen
and the farmer will continue to work
for little and his wife for nothing.
Nevertheless, II Is true that the farmer
to-day is not getting a price for his
products that justifes him in doing any
thing, and in many cases he Is not do
ing very much. The section boss on the
railroad Is getting $175 or so month
and ordinary labor on the railroad
about s25 week. and l saw the state
ment a few days ago that the average
income OF those on the farm was ~
a week.
DO not say the American people must
have immigrants from another land come
here to raise the food, but say II Is
fair that farm labor should be paid Q
living wage and that tile farmer should
get fair prices for his product.

Mayo, Retired.

Beginning to-day, Admiral MAYO.
after forty-seven years service in the
United States Navy, will write ere
tired" after his title That he goes
from the active list because of age Is
not the fact; he is as vigorous in body
is the youngest lieutenant in the
service, as lively in mind as the new
est ensign. He is furloughed for u
rest, a vacation well earned. a
breathing spell after years of toll.
When Admiral MAYO entered the
service the navy was undergoing a
change momentous in its significance.
Steam and steel had proved them
selves in warships; wood and sail
were still in use, valiantly striving
with the aid of hoary tradition for
retention. The man who was to COM
mand our fleet Of varied vessels in the
Treatest of wars saw the naval estab-
lishment at its lowest point in strength
in the years of neglect which fol-
lowed the civil war. He watched the
building of the white warships with
which our modern navy began, The
submarine, the airplane, the dirigible
as practical instruments of war came
into being in his days of activity.

watch The service grow in power and

ten acres for every family were under

all of this, but we must have 1t, as an

to some extent, his missing labor.
This, however, will be only n tenn
porary cure for the help problem.
When the pendulum in the factories
swings back to prosperity we shall
see the young men again leaving the
plough for the bench. For permanent
remedy for the labor shortage on the
farms we shall have to turn to some
thing which Secretary MEREDITH does
not suggest This is the admission of
that class of immigrants from the
northern countries of Europe which
mas proved itself of wonderful value
in American agriculture.

Servants Few, Wages High.

To THE New YORK HERALD: The cry
ing need or the hour in our cities Is
domestic servants The scarcity of
household help Is breaking up our homes
and undermining family life. 1t is driv-
ing people into hotels and two room
maSeshift apartments. 1t is directly
responsible for the fall in valuation Of
private houses and the correspondingly
increased and often exorbitant rentals
demanded in apartments.
Women cannot run their houses with
out servants and fewer heads of fam
lilies can afford to hire them at the pres
ent and ever mounting rate of wages.
The average householder cannot continue
to meet their demands and his wife and
children are the sufferers. He has been
patient in the hope that with the end
of the technical state of war and the
res imption of immigration relief of these
intolerable conditions was in sight.
Now he learns that agitation is afoot
to restrict immigration. This will neces-
sarily mean still further screwing up
of houseworkers' wages and a larger
exodus of families from private houses
II family life Is the bulwark of the
state and the guarantee of national vel
being 1t behooves our lawmakers in Con-
gress to take note of these extraordinary
conditions when contemplating the franz
ing of new laws Of far reaching conse-
Quences. /. r. +.
