King George IL Democratic.
I found King George most affable
and chatty. He loves a good story.
impressed me as exceedingly well In
formed and intelligently alert on all
matters of world concern.
He was quite unceremonious and
democratic, and I gathered from
things he said and from his general
clusion that the time had come in
history when a. wise king would
make himself as unobtrusively useful
to his people as possible if he wanted
to retain his crown and throne.
He seemed much attached to his
uine pride and interest in his gar
den and conservatories
The British talk about their king
as mice, good-natured little man."
AS matter of fact. the British have
great deal Of respect and affection

them-he worked very hard at what
ever the government asked him to do
and he kept his hands off the poll
tics and management Of the war.
British Navy Is "King's."
said a moment ago that when the
King of England says my navy"
my army" etc, 1t is a term that
really means nothing. But that is
the British navy. 1t is a singular
fact, and an anomaly. that the navy
of that country is his. No naval
officer takes an oath to support the
parliament or the government. He is
the kings officer. not the nations. in
law. When parliament took over
from the kings all their other pow
ers the navy still remained "the
kings navy" to be directed by him
and to uphold the power of the
throne in distant colonies and at
home. And that remains to this
day.
What would happen if "the kings
navy" did not follow the DEGREES of
1.-The government" If Lloyd George
should issue orders to a naval officer
that might not be in keeping with
the royal desire? 1t could not hap
pose contrary to the policy Of "the
government" So in actual practice,
after all. "the kings navy" is rather
a fiction.
One thing I learned at first hand
about King George and the Prince of
Wales. They know not only about
the British navy. but about all navies.
They are keenly interested and fully
informed about navy policies and
practical naval operations. The king
is a naval officer and was trained just
like other young Englishmen who
make service in the navy a career.
His full knowledge of naval matters
at home and abroad made our discus
sion interesting and informing. and
when the Prince Of Wales came to
Washington he had pleasant recollec-
tions Of visit to Admiral Rodman's
flagship and of the close cooperation
of the men of the navies of the two
countries in the world war. They had
a high opinion Of Ambassador Walter
Hines Page, who left an impression in
England that will give him place
for all time as one of Americas ablest
representatives at the court Of st.

The New Plays

T. bow in the theaters this week
treading the heels Of five de-
parting attractions. Getting Gertie's

"The Hero" which was considered
one OF the best plays of the season,
goes down virtually unsung at the Bel

relighted, on December 5, by Elsie
Ferguson, in "The Varying Shore"

evaporated at the Apollo. "Sonya" has
left the Forty-eight Street. About
ssThe Skirt" at the Bijou there is some
doubt. A premiere is announced for
that house next Tuesday night, and as
yet nc theater is named to house
Bessie Barriscale's play.
Louis Mann appears at the Apollo
Theater Monday in a new play of
Catskill Mountain life, entitled, "Na-
ture's Nohleman," written by Samuel
Shipman and Clara Lipman. Both
authors have populated Broadway with
successes. Mr.. Shipman is best re-
membered by EAST Is West, Friendly
Enemies" ''The Woman in Room, 49,"

b1ers." Clara Lipman collaborated
with Mr.. Shipman on "Elevating a
Husband" "Children of To-day" :"

of hotel life in the mountains in which

Must Support Our Pastors

This did not that all the people in that community
not in the days of DID, able to pay the pastors
salary 1t meant in all probability, it meant elsewhere
that the regular church few compared with
the by that those who attended regularly
not sufficient to pay the salary.
Now this is great pity and it indicates danger to this
country We cannot let cergymen disappear because
we will not support them
We have doubt that great majority of the American
people who do not attend church regularly and therefore
do not contribute to the support of the church regularly
would do if they reached in effective way
Nearly all of go to church time during the year
All of want the church to be there and want the clergy
be there Most of those who do not go to church
regularly would be quite willing to do their share toward
the support of the church and of the pastor.
is true that in recent years spirit of indifference had
grown up among those elements which resented the neu
ay of the church concerning the great social struggles
which have waged with the fluctuatng tides These
elements did not much emulation of the life of Christ

But this attitude the part Of clergymen has
changed since war; end the exploers of humanity
found their alarm that the organized cergymen of all

as well conventional vice.
The Interchurch World Movement the social program
of the Catholic bishops and of the Young Womens Chris

The request for the resignation of this pastor only calls
to mind what have frequently mentioned namely, the

now suffering would easily be removed and clergy
men supported they ought to be.

The Truth About the
Dye Trust

HE Dye Trust got its tariff and that all right But
the Dye Trust didn't get the embargo it wanted And
that is all right, too
The Dye Trust is right back in Washington, lobbying
for reconsideration and it must be watched every minute
The basis of the Dye Trust is the Chemical Foundation
The Chemical Foundation is of those organizations
which used the camouage of excessive patriotism shield
its operations profit To begin WITH the assets of the
Chemical Foundation four thousand five hundred pat
ents and several hundred trademarks seized by the Alien
Property Custodian The Alien Property Custodian handed
the valuable German property to corporation which
consisted of his assistant and subsequent Francis
Garvan president and FIVE members Of the sales
mtee of the Custodian Department L. lngraham
Otto T. Barnard Cleveland a. Dodge, B. Howell Crswod,
jr, and Ralph Stone.
As the Advisory Sales Committee these gentlemen led
the Alien Property Custodian to sell the chemical patents
to themselves and to Mr. Gaan then Assistant Custodian
Acting upon this unsesh and patriotic advice the Alien
Property Custodian periodically sold the patents and trade
marks to his advisers for $2500o though they worth
many times that.
Having thus periodically obtained the goods, the patri
otto organizers who had incorporated under Delaware
charterDeaware permitting ncorporators to do anything
to stock issues short of murderproceeded to put out
of preferred stock periodically keeping the voting
power in the stock and mpoundlng this IN voting
trust consisting of the FIVE patriotic sales advisers who had
the sale of the patents to themselves and Mr.
Francis A. Garvan.
The Chemical Foundation has the impudence to ask
Congress put embargo all dyes and make the Dye
Trust absolute monopoly-on the ground of patriotic
duty!
The Dye Trusts arguments suspicious as its
rotism In breath it claims that the whole business
of dyes is less than $25,000OO0 annually monopoly
coudn hurt much and in the next breath claims that the
dye business is the master key to $20O0O0O0O worth of
business that Germans permitted to sell dyes in
markets they either compel the payment of
profits else choke industries to death. To this
they add that unless the Dye Trust is given absolute
monopoly of the dye business its members will lose $3.50
100000 investment
The Dive Trust should send it's mahematicans to the
cobbler shop Their arithmetic is full of holes and needs
half soling, at least.
We congratulate Mr.. Frear and the other members who
knocked the dye embargo out of the House Tariff SEIZED

of exploitation coaked in the garb of and dsgacng the
