POLICY TOWARD RUSSIA.

4 S between Secretary HugheSs note, Secretary
a Hoover's statement and former Secretary
Colby's letter Of last August 10 the Italian AmbaS-
sador dealing with the policy of the United Statea
toward Russia some confusion is apparent.
There need be no misunderstanding if we remem-
Der that what Mr.. Colby was discussing as Secretary
of State was quite specifically recognition of the
Soviet regime"
What Secretary Hughes and Secretary Hoover
have dealt with is the proposal for a resumption o.
trade relations between this country and Russia with
or without permanent commitments toward the
de facto Russian Government.
II may be noticed, indeed that Secretary HugheS's
note never once mentions an existing Russian Gov
ement. He speaks only of the people Of Russia"
existing circumstances" present causes of pro.
gressivc impovenshment,' 1.-THE establishment of
conditions essential to the maintenance Of com
mere."
Former Secretary of State Colby on the other
hand referred in plain terms TO "he Soviet regime"
"tNe present rllers of Russia" and 'the BolsheyiS
Government"
The difference comes from the fact that Mr.. Colby
was discussing Soviet Russia primarily in its aspect
as a Government toward which other Governments
were bound to adopt some attitude-whether of
recognition or oognton-consistent with inter
national law and usage; whereas Secretary Hughes
is answering proposal primarily economic whi:h
concerns commerce directly and international politics
indirectly
Secretary Hoover declared The question of trade
with Russia to be "far more political question than
an economic one"
Secretary Hughes says, in effect, that there can be
neither commercial nor political relations with Russia
until changes its economic system; and, implicitly
at least he holds The present political system respon
sble for the present economic debacle.
Thus confronted with a proposal for renewed
trade with Russia, the Secretaries of Stale and Con-
merce, reasoning from the poin of view of their
respective departments reached the same conclusion;
Russia in its present state is economically impoS-
sibe because it is politically impossible, and vice
versa. 1t is for Russians to realize their plight and
rescue themselves from it,
Which is precisely what Mr., Wilson and Mr.
Colby meant seven months ago when they refused
to recognize the Soviet Government. of Russia but
put the Government of the United States on record
as expressing the hope that the Russian people, OF
their own free will and purpose might find way tu
set up Government with which the relations CON-
mon to friendly Governments can be maintained"

To the Editor OF Tle Evening World:
The chief cause of hard times and
q contributing cause toward the I'M
employment of eX-service men is the
employment OF women, girls and

men. This throws out OF work men
whose earnings would be spent 10

What Others Say
FREE SPEECH IN THE CHURCH

F.ftEE SPEECH IN The CHURCH
In his controversy with certain
wealthy members of his diocese,
Bishop Williams of Michigan has the
inestimabfe advantage of knowing
what he is talking about. He is firm
on the "impregnable rock OF Holy
Scripture. In his stand for liberal
ism within the church he is not an
innovator. He but asserts that the
church must not abandon what he
truly calls the social and economic
doctrines. His critics are the ICON
oclasts.
Bishop Manning of New York his
junior in rank, has censured Bishop
Williams for liberal utterances con-
corning ''invisible government, ."
which is something with which the
Michigan Bishop has apparently had
more practical experience than the
New York Bishop and can speak
with higher authority.
Christianity was in its pure incep-
ton religion Of the under dog. Its
founder was executed for criminal
sedition. Its secret conventicles
were in the catacombs Of the dead,
in desert places, in caves and stables.

of the Roman Republic-for Rome

RAPE OF THE CIVIL SERVICE
LAW

Post Offices are now controlled by
the Spoil System.
During the last campaign we
heard great deal from Candidate
Harding and republican orators and
newspapers about deficiency" in
government business. There are no
government officials in whose char
acter efficiency and fitness for office
who come so closely in contact with
our citizens and who vitality effect
the welfare, economy and efficiency
of one Of the greatest departmnts
Of the government as our post mas
tiers.
President Wilson in 1917, acting
under the authority given him by
the civil service laws, adopted and
enforced the rule that all candidates
for post master should take a COM
petitive examination under civil SER
vice rules, and that the one who
stood highest on such examination,
and without regard to his political
faith, should be appointed. Under
such rules about as many of the APP
pointees were republicans as there
were democrats. President Harding
aided by hords Of hungry pie-count-
er republicans discovered that this
Wilson rule deprived many "descrv-
ing republicans Of postoffices that
were held by democrats and also re-
publicans who were. not much use
to the republican party. Harding
has now changed the Wilson rule
SO that any one out of three candi-
dates who have taken such an ex
animation can be appointed by him.
The three eligibles may be in this
order: First rank. democrat; sec
ond, democrat. and third, republican.
Mr.. Hays under the regulations,
without violating the Civil Service
Law, can PICK ehe S"A~ nA"n "H
ask the president to appoint him.
The order issued affects 1888
of the 52,322 postmasters through
out the country. The remainder
3s,433 are in the fourth class.
In announcing the issuance Of this
order the president declared that he
hoped Congress would soon take
steps to place the first, second and
third class postmasters permanently
under the classified civil service and
thus take the postmasters out Of the
football Of politics.
Please carefully note the profes
s-dly pious and patriotic wish Of
Harding that he is opposed to max

ing our postmasters the football of

he alone, has made such a condition
possible by his own order and tor
the sole purpose of serving partisan
ends. Then carefully consider the
fact that Harding is now occupying
the chair Of Washington, Jefferson,
Lincoln, Cleveland, Mckinley and
Roosevelt.
However. you will not hear any
criticism of his action from the kept
press or from the little republican
editors, nearly all OF whom are can
didates for appointment to the post
Offices OF their own towns.
