The seventh game of the chess match

NO WASTE OF WORDS

A departure from the usual way of dealing with requests for bigger wages was made by the presidents of eastern railroads who were asked by the representatives of five unions to restore the wartime scale reduced by the labor board and to drop all plans for further decreases and for cutting eXtrava- gant payments for overtime; the demand was simply refused and no explanation was of fered.
 The conciseness of the response is in strik- ing contrast to the lengthy explanations gen orally accompanying replies to organizations of employees; there is no possibility of a misun- derstanding of the position of the railroad presidents, and public weary of nigh charges in freight and passenger departments is in sympathy with the laconic answer in the mega tive.
 The reduction of twelve per cent ordered by the labor board leaves railroad wages still above a normal level. The working rules ap- proved by the government have not been mod- fled and in large measure are responsible for tl" high rates of which there is general com pIaint Inflated prices must be puncturcd, for as long as the railroads are forced to pav abnormal wages and the cost of systematic loafing the price of transportation cannot be lowered. In saying "no" the presidents said enough, so unreasonable was the demand Of the men.
 Now it is in order for the labor board to do something toward the abolition of practices which take millions from shippers and passcn- gers and give no equivalent. The facts are not in dispute decisions that will put an end to abuses are very much wanted by the country. Providence Journal

CHECK TO BONUS IDEA

To the American young man the price of citizenship, the price of the inestimable boon of citizenship, is his obligation to meet any military demand upon him that his country may make.
 For such service to his country citizenship is the reward not bonuses.
 The New York Herald welcomes the deci- sion of the court of appeals concerning the soldiers bonus act because, in the first place, we believe inc courts interpretation of the fundamental law of New York to be sound and its stated reason unanswerable. The act passed by the legislature is unconstitutional in the opininon of the ultimate judicial au- thority in this state For months this news paper has been indicating the probability of such a result when the state bonus law should reach inc court of appeals The decision pre- serves a proper and necessary safeguard in the interest of all the people of the Empire state, the members of the American Legion along with the rest Any other decision would nulhfv the constitution.
 Bnt there is broader reason for regarding Wlth satisfaction the check which the general scheme of money distribution among all ex- service men has received at Albany. The in- cidort can scarcely fail to give pause in other quarters; to suggest second thought concern in@ the prInicious idea that cash bon bonuses should be the price of the military service rcn- dered by American soldiers and sailors at lh, call oG their country.
 The rejection of the New York bonus law as invalid because fine law cnactS a gift" when gifts of public money are prohibited bv the constitution should set the advocates and claimants of bonuses rvGrvwhcrc thinking about the morality of that which they adro- cate and the character of the claims they nd vance. The Albany decision serves to cm nhaSIzr the clrmosynaly character of the dis trlbutlon of cash on the horizontal plan
 Let the lcvcIhcadcd cNscrvicc man who in any other relation would scoln a money gift for duty done reflect again on the ma turc of the transaction proposed in his name and in his behalf but in numbcrIcss instances without his full understanding and acouics crncc.-Ncw York Herald

TESTIMONY OF MIR. PAGE

We have always known that the diplomatic service of the United States was thoroughIv dcmoraIizcd during the Wilson regime, but the extent of the dcmoraIization has not been known until the recent publication of the let terS of Walter H. Page, former ambassador to Great Britain. In one of his letters to Col. House, Mr. Page said concerning his com municationS to the state departments:
 "What the devil do -you suppose does be- come of the letters and tclcgrams that I send, from which and about which never had a word? As a matter of curiosity I should like to know who receives them and what he does with them"
 Mr. Pages curiosity concerning the opera tons of the state department were shared by d Ior "I people throughout the United States concerning he operation of various other de partmcnts during the Wilson regime. Eco pie wonder who got their letters and what they did with them. Publication of Mr Pages oId letters will serve a number of useful purp D~cS.

There are not 6,000,OO0 unemployed in this country probably not more than half this number. Hundreds of thousands of women and girls, lurcd into industry, have returned to their former occupations. In the rural re gions, which furnish employment to nearly half our labor army there is little excess of hcp There is a positive increase in employ mcnt in the building trades, and more auto mobiles are running about than eyer before. The silk shirt period may have passed, but it should not be mOumcd for Such in increase in savings banks deposits as the last report showed is better. That normal conditions have not been wholly rc-cstablished is, of course, patent. The adjustment of prices is not complete, and until it is deterrent in fIuence will be at work. So there is call for courage and generosity, for thrift and fellow feeling, but that person is no friend to the un- employed who wears a longer face than the facts justify and who bemoans what he calls the appalling conditions whose early coming he foresees.-New York Tribune.
