HoovER'S SoBERING WORDS

TN HIS candid and closely reasoned eN-
preston Of his advocacy of the
League of Nations with reservations,
(which should satisfy the most timid as
TO cntanglements," Herbert Hoover
adopts line Of argument which has
been lately passed by in u frcnzy oil
hair splitting.
The deadlock between the President
and Congress has been caused chiefly
by obstinate concentration of tho op-
posing forces upon that article of the
covenant prescribing the use of force in
an obligation TO pregerve the territorial
integrity and political independence of
the league members. Both Mr.. Wilson
and his foes have intently considered
an imaginary situation in which re-
fractory nation invites chastisement.
Such crises will happen-at times.
II is, however. simply hystcriCal to
conceive Of them as of every day occur
renee. The prime object Of the league
is not to call upon its members for
troops or to fight wars-even wars
for Justice. Its mere normal existence.

RELIEVING THE EvICTED

DIRECTOR TUSTIN, of the Public
IL Welfare Department is putting the
housing situation UP to Frank b. Nc
Claim, the state fair price commissioner,
and is promising to co operate with him
50 FAR as possible.
This may be good way to meet the
situation. Mr. McClain has had
numerous complaints from tenants who
have been overcharged by their land
lords and he has been making nvesti-
cations. Mr.. Tustin Is willing that he
should continue to investigate with the
Nsssistancc Of the Bureau Of Municipal
Research, the Housing Association, the
OTTAWA Hill Association and other
bodies interested in the subject.
Ii would have been better if Mr..
Tustln had been willing to assume the
responsibility for action. But what Is
needed is concerted agreement among
experts TO do something to bring relief
But there should be DO waste of time in
talking. More houses arc needed at
once, and money is needed to build them
The builders are ready TO go ahead il
they can be assured of the capital with
which to finance their operations. for
they know that tenants, if not pur-
chasers, can be found for every dwelling
as soon as 1t is ready for occupancy.

JUDGE GRAY AND SUFFRAGE

TN A long statement opposing the suf
L frage amendment, Judge Gray, Of
Delaware. confuses. as so many critics
Of reyisions to the fundamental law Of
this republic have done, the original ma
trre of the constitution with the body
Of precedent and principle which It has
built up. He alleges that the nineteenth
amendment, IL passed, will coerce "the
will of the states and that "it vio-
lates principles of self government.
But state sovereignty itself is not
EXEMPT from modification by the federal
constitution. That is the prime iustru
ment Of our government, and there is no
alteration which cannot be made in II
nv the specified machinery described in
Article v
Three -fourths of rhc states can re-
write the constitution if they see mt.
The nineteenth amendment was consti.
tutionally introduced. The steps toward
its ratification are constitutionally pur-
sued There are those who believe that
the constitution should confine itself to
general principles.
This view is In accord with the old
state rights doctrine, And still there is
no legal barrier to departure from that
standard il the people see dt to act.
Judge Gray may dsplore any trend
toward equal suffrage exhibited in
Delaware. But it is from the technical
standpoint not "a great wrong" If q
sufficient majority chooses to establish II
as a great right.

A SORRY LEGACY TO MOORE

MOT in twenty five years have the
IN street pav.mcuts of this city been
in such dangerous disrcpair os they are
today.
Every person who drives motorCar
can testify to the scores of deep holes.
ruts and bumps in every block anywhere
IN the town.
Thousands Of dollars OF damage is
done to vehicles Of all sorts every day.
TO say nothing OF the Increased risk OF
accidents to life and limb.
Where four years ago it was possible
20 boast of Philadelphia as ono of the
best paved cities in the world. II now
unquestiopably ranks among the worst.
A conservative estimate made BY com
petept authority is said to place the
cost of restoring the paving to proper
shape at about $50, 900. 900. The utter
impossibility Of dcvOting anything like
this sum TO the purpose with city
finances in their present depleted coudi-
ton makes the outlook rather blue. but
only emphasizes the seriousness of the
situation and tho need Of some con
structivc planning in the Public Works
Department.
Ii is easy to say that the streets we're
allowed to fall into this state of ruin
: because of the war. but the excuse is not
good. since many other large cities were
fsced with precisely the same difficulties
aud ovcrcamc them. Foresight and en-.
ergy during the past three years could
have prevented this condition at a cost
Of probably one fourth what will now be
required. That. however, might have
forced economising in other municipal
expenditures, such as the elimination of
useless jobs held down by time serving
petty politicians useful to the Orgnni-
nation.
The streets of Philadelphia arc q
sorry and troublesome legacy from the
thoroughly inefficient Smith administra
ton to Mayor Moore.

DELANY FOR CONGRESS

CHARLES DELANY, Of kensipg-

port Of business interests in this city
which will need an intelligent champion
in the House when the time comes for
an assault on existing tariff laws. He is
a business man. He isn't tainted or
befuddled by factiopal obligations. BY
training and association he is far more
desirable candidate than Mr.. Ransley.
Mr.. Delauy is a precedent of sorts If
he is able to serve the city's industries
rather than one small section of poll
ticsl party. he ought TO be aided, en-
couraged and elected.
