changing or giving Of pistols Of any
description to persons who are not
licensed to obtain them by some regu-
larly constituted public official after
inquiry into character and need. If
an amendment to that effect were add
ed to the Shields bill just reported to
the Senate it would cover the case
specifically. Such law would not be
subject to the suggestion of uncon-
stitutionality. inasmuch as it would
still leave it possible for the people
"to bear arms" provided they proved
the need and complied with certain
requirements.
OF course, if it can be made impos-
sible to bring pistols into the District
Of Columbia for sale to the public
the end is accomplished. The prohibi-
tion of importation should be accom-
panied. however. by prohibition of sale
save under specific license. This whole
question is worthy of discussion in the
Senate and the hope is that out of it
will come a measure that. while not
infringing upon the right of the in
dividual citizen to self protection, will
stop the indiscriminate sale of deadly
weapons and the promotion of murder.

Liberty Bond Interest Unclaimed.

Are there any liberty bondholders
in Washington who have failed to ex-
change their temporary certificates
for permanent ones? If so. they have
some money coming to them from the
Treasury. where the sum Of $50 lG5. .S67
IS waiting disbursement in payment of

there are 7,l1l.l7l separate temporary
bonds of different denominations
amounting in principal value to 81 1872

ers who have not applied for exchange.
The Treasury has repea tedly given
notice that the permanent bonds are
available, but still this immense sum
remains unclaimed. 1t is held out of
circulation and represents an economic
loss Every person who has a coupon.

once to the Treasury, or to a bank if
the Treasury is not conveniently avail

notice should be bulletined in every

sible to release these millions for work

The Next Senate.

The republicans are already busy
with plans for next years senatorial
campaigns. Thirty-two seats, equally
divided between the two parties, are
involved.
In the present Senate the repub
lican lead is more than comfortable
Its size reflects the one-sidedness OF
last years situation. when the re-
publicans swept everything into their
sack.
They started, it will be remembered
with a bare majority Of two. and one
of that number-Mr. Newberry OF
Michigan-incapacita for immediate
service. The hold was too slender
for practical purposes. Hence the
hard drive to make it stronger, which
succeeded.
The republicans now have senator
from each of these states: Arizona
Rhode Island, Nebraska, New Mexico
Wyoming, Utah, Nevada. Ohio, Mis-
souri, and Delaware. Can the number
be increased TO two from each?
1t can if the situation next year
even approximately resembles the sit
uation Of last year. Last November
the republicans carried Arizona by
1000 plus: Rhode Island by $4,000
Nebraska by 130. 600 plus: New Mexico
by 5000; Wyoming by $4,000 plus
Utah by nearly $4,000; Nevada by
nearly 5000; Ohio by nearly 400 900
Missouri by 10000. and Delaware by
nearly $4,000.
But it is altogether likely that next
years situation will show a change

European circulation. And along with
1t went the story that peonage was
widely practiced in the state, and an
intimation that other horrors would be
uncovered.
Naturally, Gov. Dorsey took the
matter up, and is proceeding with the
view of eXterminating the evil
wherever in the state it exists.
Georgia is one of the original states,
and ranks high among her sister COM
monwealths. old and new. She has
contributed to the national life some
of the ablest of the men who have
conducted national affairs. Her popu-
lation, in very large measure, is
American born and reared. She is rich
and enterprising, and has much in the
way of reputation to protect.

Reclassifcation.

If the present session ends without
action by Congress on the subject OF
departmental reclassification injustice
will have been done not only to the
government workers. but to the gov
ernrlcnt itself. For Notwithstanding
the fact that a better average of com
pensation is hoped for by the depart
ment employees than at present as
result Of rcclassifiCation, the net ef-
feet is Il public economy. The total
.f appropriations may at the outset
re somewhat larger, but the efficiency
II the government forces is certain to
te greater through the adoption of a
;ystem which puts the government
service on businesslike basis of as
signment and rating.
Hearings are begun today before the
joint committee on civil service at
which the merits of the two principal
measures will be discussed. These
hearings should not be protracted, for
il is important to put the resulting bill
or the competing measures upon the
plane of passage early. For this is
basic, substantive legislation. If en-
acted now before July l the appro-
priation acts can be amended by suit
able provision carried in the funda-
mental law. If. however, it is not pos
sible to affect the next fiscal year, it
is most important to get the sub
stantive legislation passed at this ses-
sion in order to establish the basis
for the regular appropriation bills of
next session. covering the fiscal year
Of 1929.
1t is we'll known that the appropria-
ton bills constitute the first item of
House committee work each session.
These measures are framed on the ex-
listing law. If reclassifcation is not
enacted at the present extra session
the House will proceed next December
to write the money bills on the old
scale.
One of the bills which is now under
consideration does not apply specif1cal-
ly to the employees of the District gov
ernment. This fault should be cor
rected before the bill is put on it's
passage, if that one is chosen as the
better of the two principal measures.
1t was pointed out at meeting last
evening of the Federal Club that this
is not grave fault, inasmuch as the
District employees can at any time by
executive order be included in the re-
classified service. 1t is, however,
greatly to be desired that the District
municipal organization should be given
the benefit of the law itself. II there
should be given to the local govern
ment as well as to the national.

The Pistol Bill.

The bill reported yesterday to the
Senate by the judiciary committee de-
signed to correct the pistol evil is ex-

unlawful the transportation of pistols,
with certain exceptions. into the Dis
trict Of Columbia. or from one state
to another. THIS puts q ban upon
the trafslc in the broad aspect, but It
raises a question OF tho right Of an
individual citizen to arm himself in
