from Stem to Stern"

II have prepared a statement"
said the Secretary Of the Navy in
his final scream to the Senate COM
mittee. at is one of the best state
ments have ever made. 1t is an
epigram. The navy was ready from
stem to stern, the fleet was ready
and the department was ready"
Yet official figures submitted by
the department to the committee
show that on February 2, 1917, only
81 per cent of the fleet was in proper
material condition for war service
and "a per cent of the fleet needed
an average Of sixty days to complete
repairs. But 2 per cent of the YES
sells had full compliments on board
and 90 per cent averaged but 81 per
cent of their compliments.
On April 6, 1917, sixty-three days
later, when war was declared, the
Navy Departments report shows
that but SO per cent Of the fleet was
in proper condition for war service
and that 81 per cent of the fleet
needed fifty-sX days Of repair work,
while only 10 per cent Of the vess~- s
had their compliments aboard and
90 per cent averaged SO per cent of
their compliments.
AS a Secretary Of the Navy Jo-
sephus is a poor maker Of epigrams.
During the two months following
the suspension of diplomatic rela-
tons with Germany practically moth
ing was done. We went into the
war with two-thirds of our war
ships unready and but 10 per cent
manned, and two months were
needed to finish repairs.
Ready from stem to stern! If the
British and the French had not kept
the Germans fenced in the German
fleet could have destroyed our prin-
cipal coast cities. Yet for nearly
three years Josephus had been
watching the war and boasting of
the mighty things he had done.

The Fmcical Primary
1t Should Be Made Really Direct
or abolished

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: What of the direct primary Z?
1t is obvious that as a system it is on
trial in this campaign. In my judy
ment the coming national convention
should concern itself about the con-
stltuency of national conventions, pres
ent and future. 1t goes without saving
that the party has the right and au-
thorty to control its own membership.
1t may require the election Of it's dele
gates IN manner approved by itself.
am not strong for the direct pri
mary nethod, will confess. When
compared to the convention method
long in use its faults appear glarinr.
1T is common to cast slurs at the old
convention system, but judged by its
fruits "a list of Presidents that is the
glory of the Repubic) it holds place
Of high renown.
However, if the party is going to
adopt some other method than the con-
Ventlon method Of electing delegates
1t should adopt it in whole; a system
that is half one thing and half another
thing is no system at all. If the pri-
mary system is preferred it should be
made general, it should have all the
sanctlty and protection of an election
and 1t should be held subsequent to
the date of the party's national con-
vention on specific day and date. The
latter feature is necessary if the party
would control its policy itself.
If the primary becomes general its
conclusions should have binding force,
else the whole thing is farcical. If
these conclusions be given binding
force the successful candidates in the
primaries will be the nominees of the
party. 1t follows, therefore, that all
candidates in party primary should
subscribe to the party's own platform
previously made and adopted.
TO accomplish this purpose the ma
tlonal convention should be held as
now, in June, and the primary election
at date midway between convention
date and election date.
AS limited above, cannot see great
advantage Of the primary system over
the we'll tried and time honored plan
so Icing in use, because, among other
objections, 1t provokes rivalries and
controversies that will last through the
campaign. AS at present constituted
the convention is not bound to respect
primary results and may turn deaf
ear to the clear wish of the people.
In fact, such seems to be the evident
intention of the party bosses at this
time. j. r. MLA1JGHIIN

roads have been Disseminated
against. Hence, recurrent transpor-
tation crises.
The discrimination continues.
Since 1917 rates have been marked
up 45 per cent, but costs Of opera
ton and replacement have gone up
much faster, and the railroad wreck
ers propose to force another great
increase in costs without a CORE
spending rate increase. Of course,
the quality Of railway service must
deteriorate. 1t is the inevitable
fruit of the injustice. Men will not
put money in business thus treated.
There is but one way to get railway
betterments; this is for the public
to insist on fair treatment and to
disregard the advice of demagogues
and theorists who urge further in
justice as a cure for the conse-
quences Of past injustice.

Long Life to Ding
o the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May express my profound ap-
probation Of 'Ding's" cartoon in your
issue Of the oath on the relative prof s
Of labor and capital. He does we'll to
show US this comparison. The people are
not blind to 1t, although the press
pretty generally ignores it. 1t is use
less to tell any intelligent and observ-
ing perSon that the big business con-
Germs have not made enormous profits.
or that the excess profits tax leaves
them only the crust of the pie. We
need only to observe what is going on
in whatever corporations may come un-
der our individual notice. Doubling
Of capital, fat stock dividends and
great expansions of business are to
be seen on every side.
My thanks to Ding" Long life to
him and may he be allowed to show
US the truth as he is inspired to do.

No johnson Bolt

Senator johnson has at last en-
phatically disposed Of the story that
he might bolt the Chicago conven-
ton. Il am now engaged" he says,
"in family quarrel, wholly a family
quarrel, and when the selection is
made at Chicago in two weeks the
quarrel viii be ended. This state
ment covers the platform as we'll as
the nomination, since the platform
is to be adopted before the candi-
date is named.
The threat to bolt, made on Mr..
Johnson's behalf chiefly by persons
using his candidacy for their own
purposes, was never taken at face
value by the public. But it is we'll
to have it squelched. Mr.. Johnson
has had a square deal in the pre-
convention campaign. He ran in
number Of state primaries and de-
veloped a popular strength which
must have been very flattering to
him. He has no grievance on which
to base a revolt. He has accepted
the obligations which attach TO his
unhindered appeal as a Republican
to- Republican voters.
That Senator Johnson has re-
Gently been inclining toward the de-
cision which he has emphasized has
been evident from the rapid decline
in the crest Of the Hearst news
papers in his fortunes. These news
papers hoped to see the Republican
party split this year, as it was in
1912. A Johnson secession would
have played into their hands. For
a time the California Senator was
apparently as willing to use them
as they were to use him. But as
the convention drew nearer he saw
the folly Of quitting the Republican
party without having any substan-
tial reason for quitting it.
One feeling unites Republicans
this year. That is the desire to
make an end of Wisconsin. Various
groups of Republicans may be for
various Presidential candidates. But
all groups are against the present
Administration or any Presidential
candidate who is remotely associated
with it. The unity of party senti-
ment on this point makes talk of
personal or fractional secessions at
Chicago irrelevant and innocuous.

Ending the Billboard
A Plea for Scenery Protective
Associations

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The most effective way Of sup.
pressing the vulgar and defacing ad.
vertising nuisances, beg to suggest
is by the organization Of local scenery
protective associat ons throughout the
country, somewhat on the plan Of the
village improvement societies with
central body, to which they could re-
port.
The local bodies would have commit
tees to report to them on any disfgurns
or Objectionable advertisements with
in their locality, the same to be report
ed to the central body upon the ap-
prevail of the local associations Ad-
vertisers prescribed by the action Of
the local or central body would by the
rules of the associations be dscrln-
iiAe@CSO dSdAiIob ~ t44C iASiiDStS VI as
The advertiser would then find that his
advertisements, which were intended to
draw the small patronage Of the few
who might be attracted and Influenced
by them, would, on the contrary, repe.
large and organized body of consun'
ers throughout the length and breadth
of the land.
In short, a disfgurtng billboard or
other obnoxious advertisement would
be subjected to popular censorship
and would mean or say 70 large class
of people, This concern is not to be
patronized If you can avoid It, because
it Is engaged in disfgurtng the scenery
of our beautiful country, which we are
pledged to protect from DETACHMENT
That hundreds of thousands Of ps0'
pie would Join these societies there Is
little reason to doubt The many VII
lage improvement societies, which haY'
done so much good work, might De

ganization. Let Mr.. penneil start II 81

A Believer in Pajama Land

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: viii you permit one of vour
readers to make few comments on
the editorial article in yesterdays issue
OF The Tribune regarding our fate if
we were cast upon a desert island clad
IN our pajamas?
If this had happened some wears
ago, perhaps before long the very con-
dltions which now exist would prevail
But suppose the inhabitants, say of
New York City, were at this time placed
on the desert island. After the first
shock was over it is very likely that
those who had been accustomed to
having the best in the community
would select the loveliest spot on the
island and plan the building of beauti-
full homes. But is it at all likely thai
their right to take what was best
would go undisputed? And does any
one suppose that they could easily get
labor" to work for them among such
men as are now striking even under
present conditions? People are differ
eht, always have been different aud
always will be different. But exploita-
ton Of one group of human beings by
another group need not be and will
rot be when men see the light.
1t is safe to say that the children
of the inhabitants of the aforesaid
island would have. all of them, equal
opportunities, and we could have no
arrogant talk about those who work
with their hands. A world without
hands to do the work of the brain
would be a sorry place to live in.
What we should have is equality Of
opportunity AS it is we have many
intellects that are wasted because they
have never been trained.
FAIR PLAY.

The Palmer Deportees

The protest in condemnation of
illegalities charged against the De-
partment of Justice in deportation
cases has formidable list of signers.
Among them are included Dean
Pound Of the Harvard Law School,
Dean Williams Of the st. Louis Law
School and other eminent members
of the legal faculties. Men of such
standing would not, it may be as
sumed, make accusations thus grave
except after inquiry.
The Irregularities complained Of
should have searching investigation.
Nevertheless, the issues involved
should be considered with due sense
OF proportion. Many resident aliens
have taken advantage of our toll
GRANGE and abused our hospitality.
The facts are notorious. For every
alien who has just cause for COM
plant there are probably hundred
guilty who have escaped. The De-
partment of Justice was called on to
deal with subtle and dangerous en-
enay-with no use for the law ex-
cept to employ it as a screen to hide
behind as they carried on their in
famous campaign. In dealing with
a large number of undesirables mis-
takes are inevitable and to some de-
gree excusable.
The public is interested in sub
stantial justice. 1t is little con-
cerned over legal technicalities. The
imprecations shouted by the pas
sengers from the Buford did not in
dictate that blunders had been COM
mitted. The deportees confessed.
America Is under no moral or legal
obligation to give house room to the
