1.-THE WOMAN IN THE WAY"

THERE is no more pathetic figure than
mature woman who has never
learned self-support. left dependent on
relatives for food and shelter. Sometimes
she is widow and sometimes she is a
spinster, but she frequently feels that
she is in the way in the home in which
she is maintained. Life to her is sue
cession of humiliations.
Can it be that Sophia D. THEM, who
died in the Lankenau Hospital recently
and bequeathed $4,000 to the home for
the Woman in the Way, had some such
person in mind? There is no institution
in the city called by that name and so
far as we know there is none in the
country. If she had in mind some partic-
ular individual that fact will appear in
the course of the inquiries to be made:
but whether she did or not her will
has called attention to the social con-
dition in which too many sensitive
women find themselves, and it may sug-
gest to the relatives of such that they
can make the inmate of their homes feel
that she is welcome guest rather than
a tolerated intruder.

THE THIRD-TERM SCARE

EVEN Mr.. Wilson's opponents are will
- ing to admit that he has the best
Interests of the country at heart and
that he has been seeking to do great
service to humanity. Unless they are
mistaken the third-term gossip among
politicians is without sense or reason.
Wilson, the President, has done his
work. A great task is still before Will
son, the historian. Future generations
will have a right to know of all that
went on behind the scenes at Versailles.
they will have right to know why wars
rust be and the nature of the agencies
7 iat confuse the work of men who strive
Z, or peace among the nations.
/. No one is so we'll qualified as Mr..
Wilson to write history of the Paris
difference that may enlighten and guide
,eoples everywhere in the years to come.
That work will be quite as important as
anything that a President may have to
10 in the next four years.
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1920-01-02

soon as Mr.. Wilson entered Office the
government reversed the policy of Secre-
tary Hay and withdrew its support from
American financial interests in China.
1t would have none of what has been con-
temptuously' called dollar diplomacy. AS
a result the development of American
trade with our nearest neighbor on the
Pacific has been checked, and Japan,
quick to see her opportunity, has been
making hay while the rest of the world
was otherwise occupied. She is not to be
condemned for taking advantage of her
trade opportunities. We would have done
the same thing under the same circum-
stances. But the time is coming when
a policy regarding Siberia and it's future
must be formulated if we are to enjoy
those privileges in the East which are
ours and if we are to cooperate with
the nations which desire peaceful devel-
opment of eastern Asia with its teeming
millions of possible purchasers of our
products

r SPEAKING OF PUNCH

nNE sort of punch is going swiftly out
~ of life. If Mr.. Weglein as president
of the new Council can put the other sort
behind public business and public enter
prises he will deserve endless credit and
later higher office.
In his statement yesterday Mr.. Veg
lein intimated that talk makes him
weary and that he yearns for action.
That is cheering. Talk-a steady, mo-
notonous flow OF TALKS the bane of
Philadelphia. Generations of talk pre-
ceded the Parkway. A century of talk
was somehow necessary before any prac-
tical effort was made to put bridge
across the Delaware TO Camden. Talk
is habit with some people. 1t is, too, a
convenient mask for self interested peo-
pie who have reasons of their own for
stopping public enterprises.
If MIR. Weglein wishes to make a name
for himself he will not be content with
finishing what others started. He might
tackle the traffic problem, for example,
and seek a method by which motorcars
nlaNSohtinue to have the status of public
conveniences in the central zones from
which they are slowly being driven by
successive restrictions.
