The bigger the bunch left the better
pleased will be his committee. The
chairman is Of the mind of the re-
vered George Washington Plunkett,
who, when complaint was made Of
tainted money, remarked: "The
trouble faint that it's tainted, but
faint enough" Mr.. White is prac-
teal and prides himself on being no
hypocrite.
The three cabalistic words Of the
slogan that is to win the election are
revealed. They are peace, Prog
ress, Prosperity" This is the magic
formula which is to make the pulses
of the voters wallop. Their compel
ling power is to bring all doubters to
repentance. with this line" con-
cludes Mr.. White, who is wit as
we'll as a slogan-maker, 1--WE will be
Coxsure of winning"
The public will await Mr.. Whites
further contributions to the gayety
of politics with impotence. The
campaign has been in danger Of be-
coming too serious.

The War Memorial

Any delay gives room for hope, and
there is general cause for congratu-
lation that the effort of the Mayor
and his aids to force a hasty de-
cision upon the city's war memorial
was blocked yesterday by the gen
eral committee. At the last meeting,
held on June 10, less than so out of
the $50 members were present, and it
was clear that no proper meeting
could be held during the summer.
Nevertheless the Mayors represent
ative, the City Chamberlain, Philip
Berolzheimer, objected to a post
ponement until fall, and gained an
agreement for yesterdays meeting
Of course this midsummer session
was also sparsely attended. Yet
again Mayor Hylan urged speedy
action and shifted at the decision of
the City of Paris, cited by Mr. Cur
ran, to postpone the erection of a
memorial for twenty years. Plain
ly his honor still has no patience
with cart artists" and thinks that
this matter of war memorial ought
to be slapped through while the slap
ping is good.
1t is, Of course, difficult to accom-
plish sound results under the leader
ship Of a Mayor so delighted with
his own bright ideas-or the ideas
of his Mr.. Berolzheimer, who, we
gather, is the real author Of the in
genious proposal of a musical con-
servatory as war memorial. But
the matter is of great moment, and
The Tribune cannot urge too strongly
that the friends of the arts and
every open-minded member of the
general committee set themselves
firmly against all and sundry these
pleas for haste, for 'getting some
thing started"
We would remind the members Of
the committee of the advice given by
the jury Of artists and architects Of
the Mayors committee. This repre-
sented the considered wisdom of a
group of the ablest minds of the city
trained with respect to the questions
involved in such memorial. First
and foremost, this committee def
nitely and firmly rejected any form
Of utilitarian memorial, declaring its
unanimous conviction that it was
unworthy of a metropolitan city to
combine any prominent utility, con-
venience or economy with its official
memorial to those who had served or
died in so great a cause" This con-
clusion leaves no 2lace for the
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1920-07-31
Greeting for the Movies

One may be permitted to doubt
whether the expert publicizcr of the
movies who did not drown the young
Japanese girl in q Central Park lake
was as close to the heart Of Secretary
Tumulty and the nations of Eu-
rope as he himself confessed. Since
Mr.. Swami insisted upon giving addi-
tional publicity to this bright young
man, he may we'll be pardoned for
not understanding his claims to dis
tinction. But we do feel sure, upon
what may be called the internal evil
dence of the case, that he eXagger-
ated not at all his intimacy with Mr..
George Creel.
In fact, running over his ingen-
ious philosophy of publicity, one is
driven to the conclusion that only
that best of words produced by the
war, namely, "to creel," is adequate
to describe his activities. He him
self preferred the word "publicize,"
which he claimed to have taken from
President Wilson's own mouth. But,
pretty as that mouthful is, it has not
the pep and the race associations of
"to creel."
1t is all one to such pub1icizing
whether the object to be publicized
is a Great War or a new movie or
Clara Kimball Young. You toss the
Fourteen Points in the air, removing
your cuffs to show that there is no
mechanical trickery, and bring down
white rabbit; you put this animal
in a bowl Of goldfish and take out
the heart of the world. BY this time
all Italy, al the world, is applaud
ing, and it is plain that your public
is properly publicized.
There are slower ways of persuad-
ing people, but none of them are in
volved III erecting. That is The press
agents own peculiar method, and
nothing that the Wilson Admins
tration did in the war was more de-
lightful than this application of
movie publicity to Great War. 1t
is good to be reminded of it by this
worthy disciple of the great George,
even though he did not drown the
Japanese girl in Central Park lax
and she was only a Chinese girl
after all, and Clara Kimball Young
was not kidnapped by Mexican ban
dts and we are still at war.

the Governor, an officer of the navy.
How intimate is his power may be
Judged by the decree which Captain
Gilmer, the present occupant of the
post, has issued against whistling.
"The practice of whistling," says
the Governor of Guam, "is an entire.
ly unnecessary and irritating noise
which must be discontinued" Whit
tier listened fondly to his barefoot
boys "merry whistled tunes" Liter
allure is full Of more or less romantic
whistlers. But Guam's Governor has
different tastes. To his frayed nerves
it is merely noise. Think of this
crusade among potentates demand
ing quiet!
There are any number of nuisances
that benevolent despotism can abate
quite easily. But the trouble is that
to secure universal satisfaction every
man needs to be his own despot.

Villas Retirement

One handicap of Francisco Villa,
who now retires from activities
which have occupied him for ten
years, has been the lack of a COM
petent press agent. Another is his
neglect to become the head and high
priest of a cult or sect which pro-
fessed to believe in the rightfulness
of the acts it had resolved on COM
hitting.
If he had only "rationalized" his
banditry, if he had only written
books which showed that it was his
duty to kill, to torture and to rob
those who disagreed with him, he
might have been the darling Of our
parlor Bolshevists. But he was rude
and sudden and did not bother to
justify himself with complicated rea-
soning. His manners were bad. He
had not learned the trick of getting
other men to do his bloody work, and
was his own firing squad. So the
gentlemen and ladies of advanced
boudoirs who ask for refinement in
their revolutions never really took
him up, and his ambassadors we're
never received in civilized states.
Yet, in his rough way Villa was
the Lenine of MeXico-saw the great
truths of Bolshevism before the
Master conspicuously exploited them.
1t is true Villa never thought Of or.
ganizing his company of murderers
into soviet and of then announc-
ing that all power of right belonged
to it, but in acts, in all his concep-
tions concerning the nature of mem,
and tal1sna, in all his methods of per-
suading others to accept his notions
of how human affairs should be man.
aged, the Mexican antedated the
Russian. 1t has been rather mean
of Lenine not to acknowledge that
Villa applied the great doctrine first
was the original proletarian of the
Lenine model.
Under the arrangements the tanned
Villa is to live a life Of ease. Begin
ming with nothing, he energies with
hacienda. Poems Will slavishly
obey him. We see him, as he guards
his cattle from the maraudings of
some future Villa with a different
name, growing conservative-even
Cientifco. So in material way he
has made banditry pay. Another
dividend is the knowledge that in the
years to come the Villa legend will
swell and grow, and mayhap in
centuries afar off he will be cele-
brated as MeXico's Robin Hood.

bridge across the Hudson which
has thus far received most support
in the general committee. A bridge
across the Hudson would be very
convenient and desirable thing to
have, but why delude ourselves into
thinking it can possibly represent
and commemorate the heroes Of
great war?
This committee of artists approved
three possibilities-a memorial arch,
cenotaph Ga sort of temple to sac
rifice and victory), or statue Ga
sculptural group. 1t also made a
valuable tentative proposal for a
site, suggesting the northern end of
Manhattan Island lying along the
Hudson River and Spuyten ,Duyvil
Creek. But above these detailed
and tentative conclusions it placed
the larger recommendation that "a
broader representation of the best
talent Of the country" be brought to
bear upon the problem. 1t urged
a competition, divided into prelimi
nary and final stages, with endeavor
to secure entries "from those who
have achieved distinction in design"
If the general committee wishes,
it can accept the advice of this COM
mittee of experts and insist upon a
competition. We think that COM
mon sense comedies with the artistic
view in support Of this method. 1t
is already plain that no fit plan has
yet been brought forward. Objec-
tons to the arch at Madison Square
or to the bridge across the Hudson
are overwhelming. Public opinion
has reached no conclusion. The
whole subject matter is still I'M
formed and the solution unbound.
In this situation to rush forward, as
the Mayor argues, would mean gam
bling on this great and momentous
project, with the chances in favor of
a tragic blunder, mistake in per-
petuity that would be visited upon
generation after generation.
We urge the full membership of
the general committee to vote down
any Of the projects of haste and in
sist upon the orderly and just pro-
cedure recommended by the Mayors
own committee of artists.

The " ork Of Veniselos

In Asia, too, the Turk remains a
menace to the new Greek adventure in
the ancient Hellenic regions, which
from the days of the Persian wars on
ward have played such a part in Greek
history. Greece is fortunate among
the small nations of the world in the
greatenss of her statesman, Venizelos.
He has been tie architect of the re-
stored Greece. At Paris he was easily
the ablest diplomat present. Step BY
step he conquered the men of greater
influence, until at last he has obtained
for his country prizes which less than
e decade ago seemed as remote as at
any hour since the fall of the Byzan-
tine Empire.
But the recent history of Adranople
suggests beyond all else the imper-
manence of all conquests in the Bal
kans. 1t has been Turkish, Bulgar,
Turkish and in part Bulgar all in the
last seven years. Now it is Greek.
Less than half century ago the Rus
slams took it on their road TO San
Stefano and assigned it to the Bull
CARS, who lost it at the Congress of Ber-
lin mainly through British opposition.
The Greeks will be lucky if they are able
now to consolidate their new position
and on this foundation to continue their
rebuilding of the Byzantine edifice, but
they have two great Venizclos
and British assistance. Combined these
seem sufficient for almost any achieve
ment.
