The Obsession of Charles

How old ideas hang on! The for
mer Emperor Charles of Austria and
his wife, Empress Zita, it is said,
still implicitly believe that they are
destined by divine providence to
rule over Austria Hungary. Their
faith in heavenly support is unshat-
tered. Their exit to Switzerland is
an interlude, and Charles, according
to one OF his relatives, waits for the
call to come.
Such belief, difficult as it is for
an American to accept as genu-
Inc, undoubtedly was a factor in
Charles's last escapade in Hungary,
and may be expected to play no
small part in further attempt to
resume his former throne. To be
firmly persuaded that the Lord has
predestined special role for you to
play smacks of the fury of a fanatic
Or the confidence of genius. Charles
is neither fanatic nor genius-rather
weak, we'll meaning, foolish man
but his conviction that he has been
divinely appointed to rule makes him
dangerous.
The world has moved too fast for
some men. A sense of humor was
left out when kings were fashioned,
and they blunder on, though their
nonsense is costly. Yet the Allies
have twice escorted Charles out of
his old empire without forcing him
to abdicate. Can it be they foresee,
perhaps, using him in the old cor
rupt game of dynastic politics?

Arnold Toynbee Camp Needs

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Near Newburgh, N. Y, Ar
mold Toynbee House, a settlement on
East Broadway just around the corner
from Henry Street Settlement and
catering to very much the same needy
children, has camp where soms OF
the children of the institution are able
to get vacation at small cost. The
camp is housed in discarded New YORK
City horse cars, and the cost Of main
tanning it is very little.
Last winter, however, the storehcuss
at camp was broken into, and among
other things the camp bicycle, the camp
tennis equipment and number o.
the other necessary appurtenances were
stolen. This summer there are not
sufficient funds on hand to replacs
these articles. 1 trust that you VIII Dc
kind enough to publish this letter N
the hope that it may come TO the eye
of some reader who can let US haFs
an old bicycle or some old tennis equip
ment, or possibly few dollars sowsfe

Through Canadian Eyes
Harding Substitute for the League of Nations Would Be
Acceptable 10 Our Northern Ncighbor
(From The Montreal Dcily Starr

There are increasing signs in Wash
ington that the Harding Administration
is lncubating something in the way of
a substitute proposal for the League
of Nations. candidate" Harding
promised the Republican "leaguers"
that he would, and President Harding
seems ninded-now that he has got
settled in his seat--to remember his
pledges. Moreover, he and his active
Secretary Of State, Mr.. Hughes, are
finding it decided disadvantage to be
left outside the door every time the
Supreme Council or any body acting for
the other great powers reaches preg-
nant conclusion touching a matter of
world Importance. Nor is it much of
comfort to them to have an sob
server" present to report officially on
what other nations do in affairs which
seriously affect American interests.
Present, but neither speaking nor
voting," is hardly position which suits
American character.
So if the new Administration will
have nothing to do with the League of
Nations or the Supreme Council, it is
obvious that it must set up an inter
national council of it's own if it is not
to be perpetually in the position of
protesting with more or less futility
against "falt accompli." 1t is true
that the American protest frequently
holds up action. But it does not as a
rule change the decision in the sense
Washington desires.
There is the amour propre of the
members of the Supreme Council or the
league to be considered; and there is
the fact that the protested decision is
usually the result of compromise after
the most careful consideration Of a
lot of forces playing upon the subject.
If the Americans had been present,
they could have pooled their "force"
with the others and possibly DETECTED
the compromise; but it is much more
difficult-not to say delicate-business
to remake an agreed-upon compromise
because an outsider, however potent,
has thrust handspike into it. All
that is likely to result is postpone
ment of its application.
There is not the smallest doubt that
if the American government desires
new league or council 'made in
America" the other nations will will

Where New Poppies Blow

Flanders poppies have sprung up
In the fields of New Jersey. Their
presence, however, is due to no sob
story, no miracle such as in the good
old days enriched the legends of folk
and Church. How pleasant it would
be to sing song of heroes return
ing, with the footsteps of their
spirits marking their home gardens! |!
But the poet of the twentieth
century is handicapped by news
papers which print facts. The pop
pies which bloom in the bitches and
on the railroad banks of the Federal
Shipbuilding Company, at Kearny,
have materialistic explanation.
Ships which. carried munitions to
France were filled with earth for bal
last on the return trip. On their ar
rival here the officials of the ship
building company used this ballast to
ill in depressions and grade the rail-
road banks around their plant. The
poppy blooms as freely in France as
the daisy here, and the earth was
filled with it's tiny seeds, which this
year have splashed the bitches with
crimson.
The service star has vanished
from the windows of loyal American
homes. We cannot tell from the
street now whether a son served
with the A. E. F.-unless we look
carefully and locate a patch of for
eign crimson blowing in the old
fashioned garden. No khaki bag of
souvenirs that Buddy brought home
was complete without packet of
seeds of the Flanders poppy, and
mother, who hid the German helmet
behind the piano as soon as she
could, watey,d her poppy seed with a
happy heart.
Through the force of a poem the
weed of Flanders has come to be ac-

The Polo Cup Comes Back

Such clean cut victories as those
Of Americas polo team at Hurling-
ham must make comment on the
match from this side of the water
seem almost boastful. The scores
alone tell the story to those not con-
noisseurs Of the sport: II to on
Saturday; 10 to yesterday.
And SO the international polo cup
comes back. 1t will be right well
come, for we were none too hopeful,
in view of recent reverses, that
Messrs. Stoddard, Hitchcock, Webb
and Milburn could down the oppos-
ing four in a game at which the
British are peculiarly adept and
which they take an intense pride in
playing well. The American ponies
appear to have been much superior
to those on the other side, but this
advantage was not enough to be de-
cisive had not our players shown su-
perlative skill.
Although few have the leisure or
the means to indulge in polo, we
mute,, inglorious Milburna like to
read about it, breathe some of it's air
of healthful opulence-a game two
thousand years old that was bor-
rowed from the luxurious Orient.
The very name Of the referee at
Hurlinghanl is like a chapter from
Sir Walter Scott-Lieutenant Gen
eral Sir Beauvoir de Lisle. A gilded
pastime, but manly, exhilarating
one is polo, and hearty congratula
tlons are due to our sturdy country

cepted as the symbol Of the great
war. In this mood, then, there is a
poetic justice in it's appearance in
the New Jersey shipyard, for there,
as truly as in the homes of tender
hearted women, the spirit of Amer
lea rallied to the need. 1t was not
only the hearts of America, but its
commercial genius, which helped win
the war.

A Matter of Time
From The San Frc,,o;.., ~

From The San Francisco Chronicls)
Making haste slowly in the matter Of
granting independence to the Philin-
pines is no reflection on the intellect
or character of the Filipinos. Their
intellectual capacity is granted. 1t is
their political experience that is in
question, the existence of body OF
sound opinion large enough to main
tain secure and progressive govern
mcnt. The history of republics in the
last century shows that they are moi
often successful when their people are
without traditions of sclf-government

The English-Speaking Union
A Statement of the Practical Objects
of the Organization

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Since there has been of late
frequent mention Of the English-Sr eak-
ing Union in the daily press, includ-
ing some misstatements Of it's organi-
zation and purpose, l venture to hope
that you will find room for this brief
outline Of its organization in the
United States.
The English-speaking Union is a
voluntary organization Incorporated in
the United States, officered by Ameri-
can citizens and, although British sub
jects resident In she United States are
eligible for membership, with mem
bership almost exclusively Of Ameri-
can citizens of American birth. The
president is William H. Taft, and the
vice presidents are President Alderman
Brookings, of st. Louis; Paul D.
Cravnth, of New York; Myron 7. Her
| rick, of Cleveland; the Right Rev. Will
liam Lawrence, D. D., Bishop of Massa-
chusetts, and c. c. Moore, of San
Francisco. In addition, there Is an
advisory board of some seventy-flve
men and women, board Of directors,
and branches or chapters in num-
Der of the principal cities in the coun-
| try.
The EnglishSpeaking Union main
tains small Offices at East Forthwith
Street, New York. The organization is
not anti-Sinn Fein or pro-English, or
pro-anything save that it is pro-Ameri-
can. and one of the planks in its pro-
American platform is the belief that
the best interests of the United States
and of the world at large show the
necessity of drawing together in the
bond of comradeship the English
speaking peoples of the world"
The English-Speaking Union aims at
no alliances and has nothing to do with
governments, but it does seek to pro-
mote a good understanding between
the United States, Great Britain and
the self-governing dominions of the
British Empire. 1t seeks to offer
mutual service to those of the English
speaking peoples who believe in the
great principle of free government, on
which their institutions jointly rest,
SO that these peoples may gain a fuller
knowledge of one another and thereby
perpetuate a lasting peace.
Among the practical objects of the
organization is to make the ENGLISH
speaking peoples better known to each
other by:
L. The Interchange Of representative
speakers, lecturers, professors, preach
efs and students in universities, col
leges and schools.
z. The reception, entertainment. and
general assistance of visitors, proper
ly accredited, whether in the United
States for business, travel or any other
purposes.
o. The establishment of centers in
Engllsh-speaking countries with a view
to promoting locally any movement
which makes for the better friendship
OF the peoples of these countries.
Further information in regard to the
WORK of the English-speaking Union
may be obtained from the Office, G
East Forty-ffth Street.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The subway hog in another
form: Those of us who daily make
subterranean voyages have met him in
some form or other. Last night I ran
into one of the irascible type, leaden-
complexioned, heavy-jowled, with an
air of respectability given by pair
of gold-rimmed eyeglasses. This man
berated me for touching him, although
it was an ordinary happening, caused
by the crowded condition of the car.
He designated me as cattle / held nv

Twisted Revolutionary Facts

"AoSCd o&tS
To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: If John F. Flynn, whose letter
yourselves Alone" appeared in this
mornings Tribune, will consult the En-
cyclopadia Britannica or any other re-
liable reference book. l believe he will
discover that Patrick Henry, of Revo-
lutionary fame, did not come of Irish
parentage. His mother was Welsh and
his father was Scotch. Perhaps the
name Patrick somewhat confused Mr..
Flynn.
Also, "Mad Anthony" Wayne could
not very easily have been Irish, since
his parents came OF Yorkshire stock.
AS students of American history we
should take the trouble to acquaint
ourselves with the origin of our early
American patriots
