FINES FOR ABSENT sOLONs.

While the majority of congressman are
wailing loudly for a vacation, one of
their number has coolly introduced a bill
which, if it carries, should be most efica-
cious in keeping delinquent law makers
on the job
Representative Kissel of New York is
the guilty soul. His measure proposes
to double the pay for a congressman,
making it $4,000 a year. But he will
receive this only in case of regular at
tendance. Fines are proposed. ranging
from $500 a day for absence from a fifty
day session to SO a day for absence from
a two hundred-day session. The mem
Der is to be clasSed as absent if he fails
Ito respond to rOll-call, and inscase of
consecutive absence for 80 days will lose
his seat
The public probably will not regard the
proposal for higher congressional sal
aries very favorably just now, but the
rest of the bill should rouse genuine en-
thusiasm. Any measure should meet
with popular favor which puts an effec-
tive check upon the ancient art of dali
lying in the most important offices of the
nation and secures a fair degree of at
tention to the nations business from
those who are paid to run it.

SATURDAY, AUGUST s. 1921.
THE LOSING RACE.

At II O'Clock on the night of July 81,
two ships that had been waiting in lower
New York harbor for days weighed an
Choir and started a race for quarantine.
Both carried immigrants from Greece
and the Orient. 1t was of no use to get
in before Aug. /. because the nationali
ties represented had already exhausted
their quotas for July. The immigrants
only hope Of admittance was in being
counted as part of the August quota.
The MCCALL Hellas reached quaran-
tine five minutes after midnight and the
Calabria came in two minutes later. By
those two minutes delay, IS men and
women on the Calabria were doomed to
return to their homes in Greece and Per-
STA. The winning Greek ship had
brought in under the wire all of the
Greeks and Persians admissible in Au-
gust; and the August quota filled up
those countries quota for the year. The
losing IS, who staked everything on their
voyage, will return home penniless.
On such a trivial incident may human
fortunes turn in the case of immigrants
bound for America. under the new immi-
grafton law. On that same first day Of
August, besides the IS mentioned, there
were 800 foreigners at New York await
ing deportation whose sole offense was
arriving a few hours or days later than
luckier compatriots.
1t is evident that those who enter IN
der this arrangement are in no wise pre-
ferable to those who are rejected.
The redeeming feature of the law, from
the American standpoint, is the relief it
affords the country from what otherwise
would be a caamitous invasion of more
or less undesirable immigrants from Eu
rope and Asia. But the injustice of the
system is so potent as to cast discredit on
it from the very beginning. Congress
surely will know some of the things to
be avoided when it sets about the franz
ing of a permanent immigration measure
to take the place of this temporary leg
islation, and will arrange some way to
admit foreigners on a basis not of mere
numbers and time of arrival, but of
worth and fitness for citizenship.

FAMILY VACATIONS.

The separate vacation for husband and
wife. much preached and practised in
America. doesn't go in Germany-any
more. The German director of railways
announced recently:
1t is the wish of every republican
state that married couples pass their hol-
dayS together
What the director says goes. for he
speaks for the government, which owns
and controls the railways.
The decision was made in defiance of
the request of thousands of husbands and
wives who wanted to pass their holidays
in blessed separation from each other.
There used to be special seaside excur-
sion train from Berlin known as the
Grass Widows and Grass Widowers'
Limited. They wanted the train re-
stored. 1t cannot be. A paternal govern
ment, for reasons of its own, rules other
wise.
Americans would rebel against such
an order, and win. The Germans will
not. for the German woman does what
her husband says, and her husband does
what the government says.

Nothing to Fear.
bellows Falls Times. }

1t is reported that some people living
in nearby towns are afraid to come to
Bellows Falls as they fear bodily harm.
The report seems too silly and absurd to
be true and no attention would be given it
were ii not 50 persistent.
The fact is that Bellows Falls is not
an armed camp except in two spots. at
the armory and about the camp of the
alleged strikebreakers on Rockingham
street and even at those points there is
nothing to disturb the most timid Only
once has there been any disturbance in
volving the public in any inconvenience
and that happened during the 80 min
utes parley on the steel bridge last week
There is no rioting and with the excep-
ton of the bridge incident which was
dangerous only because so many people
rushed into so small an area nothing has
happened on any public street to endanger
the safety of even a child in either North
Walpole or Bellows Falls.
People from any direction can con-
tinue to visit Bellows Falls with the ut
most assurance that the town is amply
policed and that the strikers themselves
are good American citizens with no inten-
ton or desire to inconvenience the pub
lie.

The Fundamental Truth.
(St. Adams Messenger

The Messenger takes this paragraph
from The Bratteboro Reformer's story
of the strike conditions at Bellows Falls ::
THE operation served to disperse the
Threatening element. and throughout the
episode not n1an in the company finched
or made word of reply to the oaths and
names hurled at them. Incidentally the
affair proved the need of the presence Of
troops
The soldiers in formation did not reply
to the "oaths and names hurled ut them.
of course. 1t would have been a breach
of discipline to have done so. But no
discipline can prevent soldiers from
thinking. and it would be interesting to
have a blueprint of the thought processes
of those Vermont soldiers, called out by
their superior authority to uphold the dig
nifty and honor of the state when the by
ISLANDERS were cursing them for doing their
duty.
Our soldiers on duty typify the strength
of society and the sanctity of the law.
They are the state. and the state Is
you and / and all Others including even
the strikers. So those who were cursing
the soldiers were cursing something more
than the men in uniform as individuals.
The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1921-08-06

They were cursing the state. its constitu-
ton. its laws. its officers and its citizens.
1t is we'll to repeat that the laws are
for all the people. not for a part of them,
and that all people must observe the law.
The constitution and the laws guarantee
life. liberty and the pursuit of happiness
to all the people. not to part of them
only, and it knows no distinguiShment be-
tween the people by token of the posses
sion of a union membership card. Under
the laws and constitution anybody has a
right to work anywhere at any lawful
occupation and ut any pay that is salts
factory to each side of the agreement.
Any attempt to abrogate any of these
rights is an attempt by a group to en-
force law of its own making. When the
group seeks to enforce its law by force
it places itself in direct and open defiance
uation the state must either abdicate for
TO the laws of the state. and in such a sit
the time being or take those steps which
are necessary to give purpose and effect
TO its own laws.
Governor Hartness is reported as hav=
ing said to newspapermen at Bellows
Falls that Vermont is proud of the two
companies here. Vermont viii protect
every person in following his rightful vo-
cation. There must be more protection
afforded in all of the states"
The chief executive of any American
commonwealth could take no other posi-
ton rightfully. The state has the boun-
den obligation to see that men may en-
gage themselves in lawful occupations
that they may earn for themselves and
those dependent upon them their daily
sustenance. If law and order are to exist
in our state and nation those in authority
must see that the sanctity of the law is
recognized.

s0UARENEss IN SPORT.

The verdict of the Chicago jury, &C
quitting the White Sox players in spite
of their own confession of guilt, is in
comprehensive except from a purely le-
galistic point of view. What the verdict
really means is not that the jury does
not believe the accused players conspired
to throw the worlds series games in
1919, but that the jury does not consider
such conspiracy criminal offense under
existing laws.
Perhaps the sport-loving public is more
sensitive than that jury. At any rate,
sport itself rs on higher plane than le-
gal statutes and court procedure. Ac-
cordingly Judge Lands, arbiter of base
ball. wins Widespread approval when he
announces that regardless of the YER
dict of juries, no player that throws a
ball game, no player that entertains pro-
posals or promises to throw game. no
player that sits in a conference with a
bunch of crooked players and gamblers
where the ways and means of throwing
games are discussed, and does not
tell his club about it, win ever play pro-
fessional baseball again"
Here is a remarkable demonstration
that sport has cIeaer code of ethics
than law Courts may acquit crooked
players, but they are not acquitted by in
formal tribunals administering sporting
law, nor by the higher tribunal of pub
lie sentiment.
There is a tendency sometimes on the
part of ''highbrows" to scott at the in

A Penny Saved.

One of the many clever ways In
which savings are effected by big au-
tomobile companies was illustrated by
story told the other day by manu-
facturer of parts used In quantities
in the making of u widely known car.
He received instructions to pack all
shipments in cases made of boards of
a certain length and width and with
screw holes a specified distance apart.
He grumbled a good deal at this, but
since the order came from his largest
customer he said nothing and complied
with instructions. However, when he
next met an executive of the motor
car company he asked him the reason
for the change in packing. "Oh," was
the reply, there is no use in wasting
good lumber and, now that YOU make
the boards the right size, we just dip
them in black paint and use them for
the floors Of the cars."-Wau Street
