10 that radtcalSand dangerous Organization and,
since these Communists Aaye not hesitated to
attempt to murder out American Ambassador to
Paris and also our American Consul General in
Lisbon, in their resentment over the sentences, the
court should certainly hesitate long before releasing
them. II their sentences should not be carried out.
The attempt to inhame the communists has been
demonstrated in the most unexpected quarters.
Judge Webster Thayer, who is to decide whether a
new trial shall be granted said that he had received
enough threats and letters to constitute the
boldest attempt to influence the court in the history
Of Massachusetts Italy has been flooded with
posters bearing pictures OF the two victims of
judicial murder" as the communists declare the
electrocutions Of Saco and vanEetti will be. Four
American consuls in South America and Mexico
have been threatened with death II sacco and
vanzetti are not acquitted.
All OF these murderous and lawless expressions
will have no effect on the Judge of the court need
less to say, but they should serve to awaken the
American people to the more and more urgent need
to fight Communis propaganda with the teaching of
American principles Of government, and American
ideas Of individual rights under the law. II America
ats at ease and allows the reds, the Bolshevtki, and
the communist to inculcate into ignorant lmmi-
grant minds their rotten. lawless. undermining
theories. then America will have her day of
reckoning sooner or later. and the sacco-venzatti
affair Is ample warning that it is already on the
way.

GERMANS FOR DEo1oCRAcT

NYIHILE Willie elm of Germany and the ex-crown
wv prince wait without the gates of that country,
each at his different post Of observation, alert for
some cheering sign that their erstwhile people
desire their return, even II the allies would not
permit it, that same people are holding demonstra-
lions. in which hundreds OF thousands Of tae German
population are participating, showing their resent
ment over the murder of Matthias .Erzburger by the
Monarchlst sympathtzers.
Just what attitude the common people Of Ger
many actually assumed toward a democratic govern
ment has never before boon clearly established. The
bux Of the German army came from these people.
and even with their number decimated and scattered
by war, yet in the end this mass OF people must
sway public opinion over there. They bnre been
trained and accustomed to a military oversight that
amounted almost to individual leading strings from
infancy, and there has always been doubt in this
country that they would ever voluntarily break
away from 1t. 1t has always been felt that the
MonarcAlsts would find more sympathy than objec'
ton from the German people as a whole.
These demonstrations. however, carried on in all
parts Of the nation without previous arrangement
or organized influence. provo outright that militar-
ism is in bad repute with the people. and while at
the peak of excitement following tire murder there
was momentarv danger of the overthrow of the
Republic, the rousing Of the people proved that their
sentiment would support a democratic government,
and any triumph Of the Monarchists would Re purely
temporary.

BETTER AWAKEN

He greater part of the American public which
read OF the trial of the two Italians, Sacco and
vanzetti, were not especially interested in the YER
dict, but became somewhat aroused at the attempt
on. the life Of our representative in Paris, although
not even in this crime did they realize the import
of the communist fever 4aat ragged with the convic-
ton Of this pair of unknown foreigners.
The men at present are under sentence to be
electrocuted, but a motion for a new trial will be
argued before the sentence is carried oct, and during
this interval the international Communists are
staging a world wide attempt to influence the United
states courts to free the prisoners. 1t is a thing for
amazement to consider the evident strength. and the
vorId wide spread OF Communism. Whether these
Italians have been falsely accused or not; whether
because Of their position In America, as two foreign
ara. insignifcant and lowly, they have not received
in their hearing the consideration and the sympatnE
that two Americans would have been awarded a
circumstance that might possibly be the case. yet
because OF the violent uproar upon the part OF the
Communists, they must be two very valuable men

a membership that borders two hundred. a splendid.

SCHOOL CHILDREN
ARE AIDING OTHERS

The busy fingers of school chill
dren are doing much these days to
bring comfort and happiness to 9TH
ers. Instead of making things for
themselves. they .are finding a new
interest in their school work by
turning out finished products that
go into immediate use for others.
Articles made in the classroom are
turned over to the Junior Red
Cross for distribution at home and
abroad. The children OF one group
of schools last year turned out the
following surprising list: Fifty-two
dresses for girls IL years Of age;
twenty-five dresses for girls 10
years old; ninety-four petticoats;
twenty-nine layettes: fourteen crib
quilts; twenty-five skirts; four
night-dresses: twenty black pima
fores; sixty bags for layettes and
$50 handkerchiefs- Most of these
articles were sent to Europe to re-
lieve distress due to the war. For
American hospitals they made seven
afghans; ffty-three wash cloths; six
bed pads and forty-two laundry
bags. While the girls were thus
engaged in their sewing classes the
boys made tables and chairs to
refurnish homes in war-devastated
regions and helped make 264 scrap
books for children having no pic
lures or toys.
Work similar to- this is being
done in the schools throughout the
country.

The Right Idea.

The Stanton Park Citizens Association have the
right idea. They are, however somewhat late in
working al it. They appealed to President Harding
to reappoint Commissioners Hendrick and Board
man; but they did this only on Monday evening
after presumably the Presidents decision had been
reached.
This does not change the fact that the idea is
right Washington should have the privilege if not
the right to name, within reasonable limits who
shall be its Commissioners Its citizens should have
the privilege of naming list of say six, from
whom the two civilian Commissioners would be
chosen by the President
The Herald believes that no President would
refuse to grant so reasonable demand, and if but
one did, this would establish a precedent 1t would
then soon become an established custom Such
preliminary nominations would not be difficult
They could be made through the many orsaniza-
tons by referendum. The choices so made could
secure the Endorsement of the local political COM
mittee, the political clubs joining in the vote
!. II would 60 to the President, as the Expressed
majority CHOICE of the people of the city and Dis
trct. He would recognize that It was fair subst-
tute for an election by city that denied the vote
and so the American right of self-government
More than this, there should be FIVE instead of
three Commissioners four being civilians. The
municipal business has outgrown the three-part
government OF the many cities which now have
the commission form, none with more than 2syooo
population. have less than FIVE commissioners. No
one man can rightly supervise the many, diverse
activities centered in each of the two civilian
divisions
~ ! Without the vote Washington can have very
large measure Of selfrule if II win organize to ret
it. This suggestion Is but one step but An impos-
tant one and logically 6rst ole.
