Remains In the Empire.

South Africa will not follow in the footsteps of
Ireland Far distant from the central British
power, she has voted to remain of the imperial
family and not to demand separation.
This is largely a personal victory for General
Smuts, who has proved himself a man of both re-
markable vision and of exceptional ability in the
practical application of his visions He has the two
requirements of craftsmanship; he is idealist
with the saving grace of abundant common sense.
In the recent elections he won decisive vic
tory, gaining increased following in the assem-
bly,. The chief, issue seems to have been
separation, and naturally the larger vote for this
came in the former Boer provinces. But even
there it was not dangerously heavy and indicated
but little determined demand for independence.
Great Britain took decided gamble in making
South Africa a commonwealth But she was for
tunate in this in having General Smuts of the Boers
themselves, to take the responsibility of working
out the problem. He has shown himself one of the
great of the empire.
He has, moreover, shown that it is well when
this responsibility can be placed with of the
nationality to be held within the empire. 1t is
rather strange commentary on British statesman
ship and foresight that the greatest troubles, the
one seemingly unsolvsble problem, should have de-
veloped in the very shadow of the home govern
ment.
If Great Britain could find an Irish Smuts she
might hnd an end to her trials in keeping "and
Ireland" as appendix to "The United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland" If long ago she had
given Ireland self-rule comparable to that she
gave the Boers, Smuts might not have been nee
essary to save the situation; then Parnell or a
Redmond might have been all that was required

Getting Ready for His Job.

When stops going to school he stops
growing, his limit of value is reached and he in
evitably deteriorates. Mr.. Harding has not come
to that point. He is still school and it is of
his most admirable qualities that he is not only
willing to learn, but seeks knowledge.
Ever since November 2, he has been taking a
postgraduate course in domestic and international
affairs. No other President-eect in history has
systematically sought to put himself in touch
with public sentiment; to learn from those sup
posed to know most and to inform himself thor
oughy to all the problems for whose solution
he must take the responsibility
Apparently his least concern in this course of
study, has been for the subject generally tagged
politics" He has shown earnest and honest de-
sire to get the thought and judgment OF men of
varied opinions upon the most vexing Of public
questions. 1t may be that the public lacks conf
dence in of those who have refused to let him
get far away but they have confidence in many for
whom he has sent.
1t is plain that he realizes the task he faces.
He knows the final decisions must be his; he must
make them and must answer for them. He cannot
shift failure to bad advice He must be responsible
for his own judgments.
He also knows that he will have no time for
this preliminary study and consultation after he
takes office. In the month before Congress will
meet in special session, he will be busted with
political details, appointments and the like.
At the end Of the month, he must present to
Congress his program and it is on that program of
specific recommendations he will be judged rather
than by the generalization OF the inaugural address.
The country can afford to wait for that time and
there should be prejudgments, but the help OF
sympathetically earnest desire that he may so
blend the practical with the ideal to win instant
commentator and confidence.

Other Ways.

There is than way of preparing for
war. Hudson Maxim who has been charged
with homeopathic dose of pacihsm, tells Of
other than the accustomed ways. In an interview
in the New York World he shows what else might
be done with the present armament expenditures.
He reckons these at ST, ,oooooo,ooo year. With
this money, in FIVE years, the United States could
have the best hard surfaced highway system in the
world; it could have the best developed system of
interior waterways including the St. Lawrence
tdewater route, the innerchannel from Maine to
Florida and river transportation.
1t could perfect its coast defenscs. 1t could
develop its water powers and supply electric power
for railroads and industry. 1t could do many other
like things which would both enormously add to
the gains of peace to the broad foundation of pros
perity, and at the same time facilitate the quick
mobilization Of war powers.
There is fact developed in the great
which has seemed to have too little attention from
the powers in this country and from Congress
This is that no naval force proved equal to over
come modern, properly manned and efficiently op-
Grated land defense. The most Great Britain was
able to do across the North Sea close to her home
base, was to plug up Zeebrugge by daring raid.
She failed at Gallipoli though the Turks were
not of the character their defenses of the
standard, to be most effective. They lacked many
of the most modern factors in defense.
1t is admitted that land batteries in range Of
gun, in range fading, in wireless, in of torpe-
does, in air auxiliaries in submarines, and other
factors can easily outclass batteships. 1t is ad-
mttedly impossible for modern navy to reduce
modern land defenses
If it is but defense that interests the United
States our long coast line could be made impreg-
nable at far less cost than a navy maintained as
"the greatest in the world" The money saved could
be used in such way Mr.. Maxim names, to de-
velop this country for peace and and to so
maintain its wealth supremacy to make the men
ace of foreign war only one of Our own making.

AMERICA LACKS
CHRONOMETER FACTORIES.

Before the war we Thought there
were one or two chronometer fac
tories in this country. but when the
war began and cut off the supply
of parts that were imported from
England we discovered we hau
none" A. F. Beall said at the regu-
lar staff meeting of the Bureau of
Standards. During the war one
company started to perfect the max
ing of chronometers, but as yet
they have placed none on the mar
ket.
The making OF chronometers re-
quires a very high technique. which
has been developed through gen.
erations in Europe, but which has
never been put on paper, Mr.. Beall
said. He urged that the bureau
obtain very high grade technician
and have him develop and record
the necessary methods of making
these timepieces. During the war
when chronometers were unobtain-
able, the government used a high
grade watch, specially designed and
constructed, and satisfactory results
were obtained, the speaker said.
America has been very successful
in making the watch, he said. Now
5000 to 1000 are turned out per
day, not including the cheaper
grades of watches or clocks.
A watch that is accurate within
a quarter of a second per day has
an. error of only one in 350,0A, and
therefore can be considered an in

Brands Vote of Confidence.

Mr. BRAND will go to the London conference
with Overwhelming vote of confidence from the
French assembly and of approval of the settlement
Of German reparations reached at the Paris
conference The vote of endorsement was about
three to one.
But it came with notice that the settlement
represented the absolute minimum OF French de-
msnds 1t has also been made clear that any
further material concessions will be rejected by
the assembly, and that BRAND will then go out of
office to be replaced by Poncare backed by Foch
and the army
As President of France during the war period,
Poncare proved himself real force in national at
fairs, a real leader and a directing influence
without overstepping those bounds with which the
French system has hedged in the chief executive.
He, moreover knows all the story of the war
He is today the leader Of the militant party
in France which seems to be the large majority,
There appears not much room to question that the
French ready and willing if must be- to take
into their hands the enforcement of the treaty
They are willing to go what may seem to them
a long ways to preserve the cooperation Of Great
Britain but if what the public is the cor
rect index, this distance is about represented in
the Paris settlement. 1t is always difficult to say
how much is fundamental and how much is surface
politics in such a situation.
Even at home this is not always easy But
France seems genuinely united in this instance by
the consuming. dread of Germany's quick return to
economic strength that this will come there before

McAdOO FaUOrs Plan
To ReOrgdnize Party

NEW YORK, Feb. 15.-William q.
McAdoo said in an interview today
that he was in favor of a reorgan-
ization of the Democrtic party
along liberal lines, and that the
sooner this is accomplished the bet
ter for the party.
The former Secretary OF the
Treasury, however, characterized
reports that he was back of" the
proposed meeting of the Democratic
national committee. or that the
meeting was called to further his
interests" as absolutely ridiculous"
THE fact that I favor liberaliza-
tion of the party is nothing new"

NEBRASKA OvERC0MEs
FINANCIAL sTRISGENCY.

Nebraska, heralded as the nations
greatest agricultural State, is look
ing forward to it's most successful
year and will lead the country out
of the present postwar depression
period, according to the optimistic
message of Pelham A. Barrows, lieu
tenant governor of the Cornhusker
region.
Barrows, interviewed yesterday at
the Ebbitt House, is visiting Wash
ington in the course OF his nation
wide tour of review of the Sons
of Veterans, U. S. A, of which or
ganiZation he is commander-in-
chief, and to confer with Nebraska
Congressional representatives. Bar
rows also is business manager of
the Omaha Bee.
Our State. whose interests are
primarily agricultural, suffered
greatly during the early stages OF
the financial stringency which grip
ped the nation recently" Barrows
admitted, but we grinned and bore
it and now we are going to step
forth again"
Barrows pointed out that the
mild winter has greatly favored
crops and predicted that this sea
son would see the State produce
its banner crops in both wheat. and
corn.
Nebraska as a State is entirely
out Of debt and is in position
to aid its farmers In putting out
this seasons crops, fortunately -
Barrows said. Our farmers. like
all others, speaking of the majority
spent their money when it came
easy during the war period and of
course were hard struck. like al
others, early last fall. But they
have met the crisis nobly and are
ready to use thousands of the pres
ent unemployed in the harvesting
of next seasons crops"
