Twisted Facts.

One of the favorite arguments of
those enthusiasts who would have the
United States disarm completely and
Immediately Is the statement that
wars and preparations for war now
take SO cents out every tax dollar
paid to the government.
AS matter of fact. the Army and
Navy Of the United States, under the
present appropriations acts, receive a
little less than 19 cents out Of every
tax dollar. This represents the total
possible saving, even if every vestige
Of Army and Navy were abolished.
The IA cents remaining covers obii-
cations incurred in wars that have
been fought, and which must be paid
out of tax money regardless of any
present or future action in repsect OF
armed force.
Among these items are the interest
on the liberty bond issues, compensa-
education. the civil war pension list,
maintenance of soldiers homes and
SO on.
Reduction Of armament, as suggest
ed in the American plan. would, OF
course. result in the saving of many
millions of dollars each year and the
benefit must be estimated in its prop
lent results expected to accrue from
the adoption of the plan.
But figures regarding the cost of
wars as they appear in the national
budget, should be read with q clear
understanding of their meaning. 1t is
good plan to keep all the facts
about the reduction of armament
straight. and it is easy to get them

cult things to deal with if the public

won. M. Millerand invited him to
enter the cabinet as minister OF colo
MES, thus meeting the wishes OF the
French colonials. The appointment
was we'll received by the public and
he was generally regarded as the
right man in the right place.
He has been returned successfully
as minister OF colonies by M. Leygues
and by NJ BRAND. the present pre-
mier.
Since early youth M. sarraut had
followed the double career OF news
paper man and lawyer. and, while this
is his first visit to the United States,
he has written extensively on Amer
lean topics. In fact, his first book
was a study Of the American system
of government.
At one time he was one Of the prin-
cipal editors OF the powerful journal
La Depeche, which exerts great in
fluence throughout southern France.
His brother, Senator Maurice Sarraut,
one of the most influential members
Of the senate, Is the manager of this
publication.
NJ Sarraut is an art critic of recog-
nized ability. If he has a hobby it
is the collecting Of paintings. But
his hours for recreation and crafty
ing personal whims are few. His life
Is given to France. and his ambition
Is to bring about a development OF
her colonies on such a scale that they
will be able to contribute effectively
to the raising of a new France from
the ashes of the war

Mr.. Harrison Opens the Ball.

Senator Harrison, in bantering tone
and terms, protests the Presidents ef-
fort to solidify his party in Congress.
And yet was not the President
within his rights? Was it not his
duty, indeed, to speak out? Is he not
the leader of his party, in Congress
and out?
These questions answer themselves.
The President is the leader Of his
party. His party is divided. and a
party divided against itself cannot
stand. So there was good reason for
him to speak.
And he spoke in good time. The
session opens with a large amount Of
business awaiting attention. The re.
publican party has a mandate to
attend to it, and the President wants
it attended to as satisfactorily as pos
sible.
He is probably thinking Of two
things-the public's interests and the
party's interests. If the public's in
terests are we'll served, the party's will
be also. He serves his party best
who serves his country best"
The senator from Mississippi would,
Of course, be glad to see the opposi.
ton remain divided. He wants DEM
ocratic victory next year, and will be
prominent In the contest. 1t would
fall in excellently with his wishes and
purposes for the republicans to con-
tinue their chickering's and hand over
the next Congress-at least the next
House-on a silver salver to the dem
ocrats, as they did in 1910.
Does not Mr.. Harrison really COM
pliment the Presidents message when,
in replying to it and its many sug-
gestions, he offers nothing more SUBJ
stantial than criticism Of the Presi-
dents desire for party unity?
Evening star., 1921-12-08
The President and Congress.

The President stands to hear much
pleasant news about himself. Sena-
tors and representatives, returned
from their fortnight at home, will be
dropping in and telling him about
what the boys" are saying about the
administration.
Their reports, there is reason to be-
lieve. will all be to the good. Com
mercial travellers and others. who on
their trips talk politics as well as busi-
ness, remark on how favorably they
find the people everywhere impressed
and they are very hearty in pro
claiming the fact. They are wishing
him success, and expecting him to
achieve it.
But the legislators did not hear as
pleasant things said about themselves.
The popular tone about Congress is
critical. 1t is probably little unjust.
Sufficient allowance has not been
made for the size Of the order pre-
sented last April, when Congress met
and the country, still under the spell
Of the previous November, was ex.
pecting that a legislative miracle
would be wrought.
Miracle.workers seldom appear on
Capitol Hill, and none appeared this
time. So that having to tackle an
unusually large order in the every.
day way, with everyday means. and
under everyday direction. Congress
did not make the progress demanded.
But that is old stuff. Back on the
job now, and aware Of the popular
disappointment, Congress has the op.
portunity, and should feel the spur, to
quicken its pace and improve its rec.
ord for use next November. 1t ought
to take a leaf out of the Presidents Is
book and win only applause.

The Shoaling Potomac.

Gen. Beach, chief of engineers, re-
ports to Congress that the Virginia
channel of the Potomac river has
shoaled two feet in two years. and he
urged additional dredging to reclaim
the channel for service.
This statement Of the rate Of river
shoaHng will be Of interest to those
who do not personally recall the early
condition of the river at this point,
before the reclamation Of the flats"
was undertaken. The present Poto-
mac Park is composed Of sediment
dredged from the river bottom and
forced through tubes behind retaining
wallis. Millions Of cubic yards Of ma
terial were thus pumped out Of the
channels. Practically every foot Of
the park came out of the river bed.
At the sedimentation rate Of foot
a year it is easy to see how the Po-
tomac is capable Of yielding enough
material to make such q great ex-
panse of park. In the early years the
dredging was only done when actual
necessity compelled. The dredges were
Evening star., 1921-12-08

Of the old bucket type, lifting the mud
scoop by scoop and depositing It on
scows, to be toweds away somewhere
and dumped. or perhaps scooped out
and hauled of to All hollows.
The plan to- use the sediment from
the choking river channel for the
reclamation Of the flats was a stroke
Of genius. It solved the channel prob.
lem, cured condition that menaced
the health Of the District and even
tually provided q park the like of
which does not exist elsewhere. And
now, at the rate Of foot a year, the
Potomac continues to bring down ma.
terial that can be used for other fllls,
to make other parks, perhaps; but.
whether used for such purposes or
not. it must be removed. else the Po-
tomac will deteriorate into a minor
stream on which only craft Of the
lightest draft can navigate.

than M. Albert sarraut, member Of the
French delegation. His knowledge Of
the subject was recognised by the
conference when It appointed him q
member Of the committee that IL to
consider the proposed abolition Of
extraterritoriality in China.
Newspaper man, lawyer and educat-
or. NJ. Sarraut has studied conditions
in the far east at close range. He has
been governor general of Indo China
and he so won the affection of the
1ndo-Chinese for France that. during
the war. it was sufficient to leave in
the colony 800 white soldiers for a
population of 25.000.000. AS present
minister Of the colonies, 1t Is UNDER
stood he has prepared vast plan for
reorganization Of the French colonies
and the development Of their immense
resources. What this will mean. to
France best can be appreciated when
area of the colonies Is fourteen times
greater than that of France itself, or
as large as the United States.
Born at Bordeaux. in 1872, NJ. Sar-
raut has served his country with dis
tinction as statesman and soldier. At
tary of state. He collaborated with
NJ. Clemenceau, and. later. he became
undersecretary Of state in the min
istry of war. where he organized the
first aviation section of the army.
In 1911 he was appointed governor
general Of Indo-China. There he fol-
lowed courageous policy toward the
natives. He punished severely crimes
against humanity, but gave liberty
to the people. His administration is
credited with having stimulated and
aided a remarkable beginning in self
government in ndo-China-
He was in France in 1914, preparing
to return to Asia. when war broke
out NJ. Viyiani appointed him minis
ter of public education, and. until the
end of 1915, he administered the ma
tional system Of education with great
success, notwithstanding many school
hospitals and thousands Of teachers
had gone to the front.
Then, as the fury of the war brought
France into her darkest hours. NJ.
Sarraut volunteered for military SER
vice. He was appointed a second lieu
tenant and. later, he participated in
the battles of Bois lie Pretre and Yer
dun. At Verdun he received the war
cross for gallant action.
The presence of NJ. Sarraut in Indo-
China was regarded by the govern
ment as Of such importance that he
was recalled from the trenches and
sent back to Nanoi. Here. again. his
administration was destined to be a
conspicuous one. Within a short time
he was able to send to France 140.0
men and variety Of raw materials.
In 1918 he returned to France, but
not to rest upon the laurels he had

of retirement age, the whole matter
of the system as 1t has been set In
operation should be studied by Con-
gress, through the executive oficials
who are charged with the administra-
ton Of the law. 1t Is expected that
the report of the actuaries who have
had to do with the keeping OF the
retirement accounts will, az Secretary
Melons report indicates. warrant q
greater degree Of liberality. The
principle should be established to
grant the maximum Of benefit to the
retired employees as long as the con-
tributions to the fund taken from the
pay of the employees remain at the
present rate.
1t may be that eventually the con-
tribution rate can be reduced and the
compensation rate increased as well.
This would be the fullest measure OF
justice to the employees Of the govern
ment, who are now taxed to maintain
the retirement fund with no positive
assurance Of benefit, though with q
guarantee of a refund Of contributions
in case Of withdrawal from the service
before the retirement age is reached.
Evening star., 1921-12-08
Retirement Annuities.

Secretary Mellon suggests in his
annual report that the annuities Of
the government civil employees who
have been retired from the service
should be increased. He also sug-
gests that the retirement age should
be reduced from seventy to sixty
eight. But the latter is made con-
tingent upon the former. That is to
say, Mr.. Mellon would not have any
government clerk retired at a lower
age than at present unless he can be
assured of a larger income. Nor, in
deed, should any employe be forced to
quit the service at the rate Of retire
nient pay now prevailing.
In this connection should be con.
sidered the case of the clerks who
have served the government for thirty
wears and more and have not reached
the. retirement age. 1t has been said
by those who have studied the matter
closely that rarely does efficiency con.
tinue high after thirty years Of con-
tinuous work in any one line. Task
WEAKNESS sets in and impairs the use
fulness of the worker This is true
in the government service as else
where. Would it not be better for the
government to permit those who have
labored continuously for thirty years
to retire. without waiting for attain
ment Of the age Of seventy?
But whether the thirty-year retire
mont principle is adopted, or some
prcvssiorr is made for disability re-
sirsuaent at less than the present limit
