or the record Of Gov. Miller-a strong
man, who in office has gone about busi-
ness in a little bolder and more direct
way than is customary in state
where politics is played down to a fine
point and finesse is recommended to
all officials, high and low. The result
is some disaffection here and there in
republican circles, >which may or may
not show at the polls.
Gov. Miller is of the type of Charles
r. Hughes. He was bred a lawyer,
and, like Mr.. Hughes, has served on
the bench. He is not "biddable" by
politicians, nor controlled In his official
conduct by their precepts. He hews to
a line of his own, regardless Of where
the chips fall.
This is the sort of man we need in
office at time when so much is upside
down. and putting matters right again
calls for clear thinking and the cour-
age Of it. In Gov. Miller New York has

Since 1914, and especially since the

result that as the armament confer

War between two countries that

friendship would be a catastrophe

shake the world more severely than

would be unforgivable because Of its

The Office of Ex-senator Sherman.

Announcement by Gen. Dawes, di-
rector of the budget, Of the fact that
former Senator Lawrence Y. Sherman
of Illinois has been recalled into the
government service to assist him in re-
viewing the estimates of the District
as submitted for inclusion in the bud
get will meet with popular applause
in the National Capital. The status
under which ex-senator Sherman will
work as al dollar-a-year man in the
service of the nation is clearly defined
by Gen. Dawes. and gives no grounds
for the assumption that his duties are
to be those of an arbiter upon the Dis
trict estimates. If it had been pro-
posed to create and fill such an Office
Senator Sherman would have been a
wise choice for an unwise job. AS 1t
is, both the job and the man who Is to
perform it command generous public
approval.
Commenting upon his appointment
OF ex-senator Sherman. Gen. Dawes
makes clear the basis for his course
of action: I'm connection with the han
ding of the budget for the District of
Columbia in the Office Of the bureau Of

that if the estimates for the District
are to be transmitted to the President
with any intelligent suggestion as to
the necessity and wisdom Of the items
therein, the director Of the budget
must be assisted by the impartial ad-
vice of one thoroughly conversant with
the business of the District"
The soundness Of Gen. Dawes plan
is apparent. and ex-senator Sherman,
when once he shall have familiarized
himself with the revised estimates re-

Women in Public Health Work.

A survey lately made by the United
States public health serice indicates
that a new profession of the utmost
interest and Importance is open to
women. OF the forty-seven. state
health departments that replied to
QUESTIONABLE. thirty-nine reported
the employment of women in profess
sional and administration positions.
Writing in the Woman Citizen. Ger
trude Seymour of the federal health
service states that. whereas the total
Of women employed was thought to
be some fifty or sixty. the returns
showed nearly two hundred. To these
must be added fifty women whom the
federal public health service employs
in responsible administrative posi-
tions, and many more. exactly how
many is as yet not ascertained, who
are employed by municipalities.
As life becomes more complex. the
fate Of legislation depends more and
more upon able and honest admins
tration. Especially is this true Of
measures which affect the health and
character Of our citizenry. The new
immigra tion law is of the utmost urg-
ency, but it is in danger Of being dis
credited for the lack of able adminfs-
traitors, many of whom might and
should be professional wofnen.-New

School Enrolment.

Enrolment of public school pupils
goes higher than the estimate. The
first-day entrants exceed those Of last
year, but one cannot determine from
this how much the enrolment of 1921
will surpass that Of 1920. That the
number of pupils will be very much
larger than last year is manifest. The
population of Washington keeps on

Admiral Sims Letter.

Rear Admiral Sims, in a letter to the
National Merchant Marine Associa-
ton, corrects a misunderstanding as to
his attitude toward an American mer-
chant marine. He has been quoted as
discouraging the movement to make
America strong on the water in that
way. The very opposite is his true
position, as he testifies over his sigma
ture.
Just how far this is from what
ever have or could have thought of
the merchant marine you may judge
from the fact that the Navy of the
United States would be of very little
value as a defense of the United
States and our possessions If it were
not for the merchant marine. In the
absence Of merchant marine to fur
amount Of supplies that a fleet would
need, that fleet would be restricted in
it's operations to a comparatively short
distance from its nearest base. II our
fleet had to be sent to make an attack
at long distance across the ocean 1t
tons of supplies day, including fuel
and all other supplies. This is one of
the essential elements that enter into
the consideration Of what We call
the lOglSllCS Oh OpcEdtlOu,
and is one of the subjects which re-
ceive the closest study Of those who
are charged with the preparation of
naval plans"
This presents the question from a
new and very important angie. Stress
usually is laid on the country's need
in times of peace. A merchant marine
for business purposee-to deliver
American products sold in foreign mar
kets. and also to carry for profit the
products Of other countries-has been
the theme Of those urging the estab-
lishment of a merchant feet.
But, as Admiral Sims shows, the
country needs, and needs vitality, such
ships in times of war. We could not
get along without them. The Navy
would be powerless at a distance with
out such a connection with its base Of
supplies.
On both accounts, therefore-the ex-
tension of American trade and the
perfecting of the national defense
there should be merchant marine
large enough to meet all the require
ments of a powerful and growing ma
ton. ..
