developed rapidly and fit in well with

men have died for want of the relief
which the Government had promised
them. Others through neglect have
been so confirmed to their physical
disabilities as to be beyond the power
and the reach of rehabilitation. Many,
despairing of ever receiving the prom
ised aid from the Government, have
ceased their attempts to secure it and
have sought needed relief in private
charity or have fallen into helpless
pauperism. But there are yet scores
of thousands who can be helped, and
who can be transformed from mere
derelicts into efficient industrialists.
In the doing of that work the nation
will not begrudge the spending of the
necessary sums. 1t would revolt, and
no one could more fittingly and more
effectively lead the revolt than the
President himself, against any further
squandering of the appropriation
made for that sacred purpose upon a
SNUG and inefficient gang of chair
filters and salary-drawers, fattening
upon the loot snatched by their I'M
clean hands from the nations wounded
and suffering heroes.

Of the latter cannot consistently sun

II must be recognized that the
sentiment in Congress is not in favor
at this time Of giving the District
two members Of the United States
Senate and two members of the
House Of Representatives. Those adj
voeating that method of representa-

of the existing fiscal relations be-

secure favorable action in the near

However, people Of the District are
being called upon to bear an in
creased share of the cost of the Dis

THE REHABILITATION SCANDAL

With the Presidents remarks con
corning the rehabilitation of wounded
and crippled soldiers we are in heart
lest accord. We can imagine no right
minded and right-hearted American
who does not hold that work TO be one
of the very first, most fundamental.
and most sacred duties Of the nation.
Good faith and the honor of the nation
require it. The most practical eco
nomical considerations, and the lofti-
est sentiments of idealistic humanity.
alike demand it.
But the Presidents admirable words
intensity the wonder, the bewilder-
ment, which the country has long felt
at his own strange course in the mat
ter. In advance and at the beginning
he was foremost, most eloquent and
most emphatic in insisting upon the
fulilment of our obligation, and under
his Administration and under his con.
troll vast machine was created with
copious pecuniary supplies, for the do
ing of that work. The failure of that
machine to do that work, its deliber-
ate and cynical evasion of duty. its
contemptuous neglect and insult of
those who should have been its bene-
ficiaries have for months been a cry
ing national scandal dinned into the
ears and blazoned before the eyes of
the President. One cannot dissuade
ones self from the supposition that a
word from him would at any time
promptly and effectively have rene
died the monstrous evil. That he did
not take action in the summary and
strenuous manner which he so well
knows how to employ, is one of the
strangest and most melancholy mys-
teries of our time
What is certain is that in the face
of request for very great increase,
of appropriation, preferred by that
deliberately inefficient and inutile ere
Mobilization" board, Congress will be
abundantly justified in taking the
strongest possible action to compel,
so far as this can now be done, the

cases it is now forever too late. Some

LACK OF RESPECT FOR WOMAN
HOOD.

Bishop Thomas Nicholson, of the
Methodist Episcopal church, in an adj
dress made in Chicago a few days ago,
declared 1--WE are living in an age of
bold and adventurous men, in which
there is an appalling lack of respect
for womanhood." Then the Bishop
lifts his voice against the moral aban-
don of the people and goes on as fol-
lows:
Think of the moral laxity shown
in the present-day styles of womans
dress and of our social entertain
ment and public demeanor. Think of
1000 supposedly respectable citizens
of Chicago sitting in some of our
most elegant theatre buildings and
witnessing the present-day suggestive
performances without uttering a pro-
test"
The Bishops statement that there
is an appalling lack of respect for
womanhood" and that men are bold
and adventurous is probably justi-
fed by conditions in Chicago and
throughout the country generally. But
that this appalling lack Of respect
for womanhood" is not all change
able to the bold and adventurous
men, is quite conelusively shown in
the bishops next expression, when he
deplores the "moral laxity shown in
the present-day style of woman's
dress, etc" The bold and adven-
turous men" do not dress the women
or force styles upon them. The
women do this themselves and the
complaint of Bishop Nicholson and the
facts and conclusions he recites only
prove, regrettably, but too well. that
one Of the great curses Of this age
is that more women as well as more
men are becoming both adventurous
and bold" Bishop Nicholson seems
to recognize this fact Probably some
day he and others who deplore this
"lack Of respect for womanhood" will
realize that the so-called reforms that
have been encouraging women 10 live
and act like men have had a good deal
TO do with too great portion Of them
becoming bold and adventurous" and
has failed to make any portion Of the
men any better
