The Word of the United States.
tst. Louis Post-pispatch.l

| - ~~s@N~es
est. Louis Post-Dispatch.)
The Senate has passed the bill re-
storing free passage through the
Panama Canal to American coastwise
shipping Sbut the House, it is predict
ed, will delay action on the measure.
II this prediction is fulfilled it will be
due to President Harding's personal
influence. And the reason for this
"usurpation of legislative authority
by the executive" which was stero-
typed partisan complaint during the
second Wilson administration, is we'll
understood.
With number of nations repre-
sentatives to the disarmament con-
ference called by the President for
the purpose of entering into honor
able agreements for the reduction of
military expenditures and the main
tenance ofpeace, it will be embarrass-
ing, to put it mildly, for the United
States to appear as hostess of the
gathering with the guilt of repudiat-
ing her solemn word flushing ber
brow. How can we ask other nations
to join us in great enterprise, whose
cornerstone is good faith, when we
have just faithlessly broken our own
pledge?
Our obligation under the Hay
Pauncefote treaty permits of only
one construction. We agreed that
the canal would be open to the use of
all nations on equal terms. We made
no reservation in our own interest
We did not stipulate special privilege
for the American coastwise shipping
monopoly We made bargain, and
if we conceded much it is also true
that much was conceded to US. But
whether it was good trade or bad
one, we entered into contract which
we can only break, as the Senate is
willing to break it, at the price of
dishonor.
That Mr.. Harding is himself re-
sponsible in large part for the perfidy
of the Senate's action is undeniable.
During the campaign of last year,
with America First" interlardling all
his utterances, Mr.. Harding spoke OF
the Panama Canal as an accomplish
ment of American conception and
daring, national triumph in which
he took particular pride aud which,
he said, should serve the interests of
America First. Evasive and cryptic
as his remarks may have been, they
committed him precisely to what the
Senate has done, namely, the repeal
of the tolls exemption act by which
the Wilson administration redeemed
the country's pledged word.
Directing the affairs Of nation is
not 30 simple task to Mr.. Harding
the President as it was to Mr.. Hard
ing the candidate. OF that fact we
have cumulative evidence. But the
changed attitude of the President in
the present instance, unfortunately,
is not matter, of conviction but of
expediency. The reputation of our
treaty pledge is not opposed on the
grounds of principle. The explana-
tion, as given by Senator Lodge, pre-
sumably as the administration
spokesman, is that the present is not
an opportune time for US to be dis
honorable. We must wait until the
disarmament conference has adjourn
ed before announcing to the world
that the United States will break her
word whenever she conceives such
treachery to be to her advantage
Machiavelli is dead, but his soul
goes marching on in the statesman

deal with transit or any other question.
1T will be precisely as IL the Legislature
were sitting as a body on the city's
transit question and Its decision will be
the final and supreme word of the State.
The ultimate success or failure of the
whole project therefore must rest with
the commissioners themselves. The
Governor will create the machinery,
name commission of the abiest men he
can find to serve and point the way TO
what he believes will be the solution.
Further than that he cannot go.
The political situation in the Legs-
lature has not changed materially IN
the last few days unless it is that the
Governors latest word has been to break
sdown still further such opposition as
exists in New York city.
The Senators and Assemblymen from
the metropolitan districts have stated
they would not declare their individual
positions toward the plan until the tran
est hill was introduced and they knew
precisely wnar IL provided.
1t has been taken for granted all
along that many of-the New York city
men would be compelled in Difference to
the political necessities of their home
districts to vote against the plan. The
leaders have insisted that if the city
delegation was a pnit--including Demo-
Gratis and Republicans-against the Gov
ernor's policy it would make little diff
ference. The upstate vote which Is
solidly behind the Governor in both
houses Is more than sufficient to pass
the transit bill. At the showdown. how
ever, il is regarded as better than an
even chance that several of the Repub-
jican members from the metropolis Will
be found lined up with the Governor in
both houses.

to Meet To-day.

Lindley M. Garrison, receiver of the

court to-day the question of discontinu-

These lines, the receiver said in a
statement yesterday. are operated at a
loss of some $32,56 a month. During
November there was net profit of
something over $4,000 in the local bridge
traffic. which Commissioner Whalen in
tends to supply with municipal cars
"The city apparently has decided that
It is more important to take from these
esasdpanies the $4,000 a moath profit de-

M. Garrison, than 1t is to assist the

WILDWOOD. N, J.. Sept. "a.
Preparations for building work are
the paramount issues of the time In
all sections of the trio city resort.
One can see many visible evidences
that the work is now on. At least
twenty-five buildings are under
construction now and orders for
eighty-seven are booked with con-
tractors and builders up to the
present writing. An indication that
much is in anticipation this winter
IL the fact that the schools have
the largest enrolment in the his
tory of the resort Three new
teachers were engaged and much
new equipment. The enrolment Is
IS per cent greater than this time
last year. In fact the winter popu-
lation of the three resorts Is
greater than ever in the history Of
Wildwood, North Wildwood and the
Crest.
Ine Camp Fire Girls. not to be
QUITO e by the Boy Scouts have Sc
cu 4 permission from the city
commissioners to erect a hut on the
City Park between Oak and Wild
wood avenues. The girls will have
a hut similar, in design and con-
struction to the hut erected by
friends of the Boy Scouts.
West Wildwood, an adjoining
borough, has given out a contract
to Craythorn and Nickerson for the
erection of a new sewage plant on
Sunset Lake. The plant Win be
erected and in operation by next
season. This growing resort has
summer population of nearly 5000
persons and II Is growing larger
each season, due to its founder and
Mayor Warren d. Ham.
Actual construction work on the
Wildwood golf course on the Mac
kissic farm on the main seashore
road has started. This champion
ship eighteen-hole course is ex-
pected to be completed by next fall.
