FEW DIscoRDANT NOTES

There are few discordant notes to
jar in the almost universal acclaim
with which the Hughes proposals are
received. Senator Borah Is not alto
gether pleased and 1t was not expect
ed that he would be. Originally he
was for limitation Of armament: now,
of course, he wants 1t abolished.
It is worthy Of notice that included
in the approval is the resolution of a
chamber of commerce in a city that
has profited much from the building
Of ships of war. That could not be
based on consideration of immediate
profit for the limiting of armament
will interfere with the business
growth Of that city for the present.
Rather was it inspired by recogni-
ton of the fact that the profit Of no
place is safe when war impends.
There are certain interests and GER
tain newspaper writers representing
those interests who are contributing
columns to the discussion, which re-
semble in spirit the derision of those
who laughed at Noah when he was
building the ark. It wasn't going to
be much Of a shower anyway. These
modern carpers see nothing fine or
inspiring about this effort to cut the
claws of war, only sort of sordd
cowardice is at the bottom of it If
they are to be believed. They tell us
that the overwhelming cost of war
is what really has brought the people
into the mood of peace. Simply a
matter of cold cash. If those writer's
are sincere they are to be pitied.
Theirs the nature that would meas
ure parents affection for a child
by his earning capacity.
But were it true that the worlds
attitude toward war is because of its
cost solely. 1t would be gratifying to
learn that the world has arrived at
enlightened selfishness regarding so
important an evil. 1t gives hope
that as time goes on it will arrive at
like conclusion respecting the I'M
profitableness Of evils generally.

A very Narrow Escape

Charles r. Oliver of Bath. secretar y
of the Board of Highways and Sewers,
and Mrs. Oliver miraculously escaped
serious injury Saturday when the
Maine Central gates at the Washing
ton street crossing were suddenly
lowered upon the Nash car in which
they were riding. They came down
at the precise moment so that one
arm smashed the windshield and
ia ok knitted the top. Mr.. Oliver
brought his car to an almost in
Simultaneous stop. The windshield
was smashed and how the two occu-
pants escaped cuts and bruises from
the quantities of flying glass that
dropped in the bottom Of the car is
beyond comprehension. Sec. Oliver
says that as he approached the cross
ing the gates were down. but the
gateman raised them sufficiently for
him to drive along on his way to the
South end. When almost clear of
them they were again lowered. just in
time for an arm to catch his car.
The gateman explained that he
thought the car was beyond the gate
zone.

Open Diplomacy
New York Tribune)

t-NtN VI lDuHcD
"Opcn diplomacy" became a bitter
jest at the peace conference. The
cynical minded. seeing that the
largest results were obtained there
by the least open diplomatists. have
ever since been applauding the close
mouthed school and predicting inev-
table failure for any statesman who
should have the temerity at any flu
ture conference to lay his cards on
the table.
The response of Mr.. Hughes re-
turn to open diplomacy in his naval
how overdone the skepticism of the
cynical was. What failed at Paris
was not open diplomacy, but was, as
Mr. Lansing has shown in THE
Peace Negotiations" open diplomacy
without a clean-cut, concrete pro-
gram. Mr.. Hughes is not seeking a
limitation of armament through
trades and dickers behind closed
doors. He has proclaimed from the
housetops what the United States is
ready to do. He has gone into the
minute details. We are prepared to
stop building for ten years and to
make huge cuts in our present naval
establishment, completed or still on
the way to completion. This propo-
sal is put forward without reserva-
tons or provisos. It's scope has as
tonished the world. 1t came with
dramatic effectiveness out OF a clear
sky. The two other powers con-
cerned-Great Britain and Japan
are invited to accept it: or. If they
wish, to improve upon it.

Augusta, Maine.
Dear Sir:
Please permit me through the col
umns of your valuable paper to cor
rect a wrong impression that has
been made in regard to our Thanks
giving and Christmas dinners for the
poor. We are planning to give free
Thanksgiving dinner to 100 poor per-
sons. We are planning to give free
Christmas dinner to 500 poor persons,
making a total of 500 persons or 100
families in all. We did this in Au-
gusta last year. In 1919 we supplied
1000 poor persons with free Christ
mas dinner in the Augusta district
including Augusta, Hallowell and
Gardiner. This dinner was given in
baskets publicly from the City Hail.
The Honorable Mayor Martin presid-
ed. The Honorable G.. =. Gannctt
gave the principal address: Saint
Marks choir furnished music; Miss
V. Hewins presided at the piano;
Mr.. r. Weber represented the press.
We did exactly what we promised
to do. This year We will do exactly
what we have announced that we will
do. We are most anxious that our
public statements shall be absolutely
truthful and correct and that our
friends and contributors may have
full opportunity to see for themselves
what is being done.
Yours very gratefully and respect

LIST OF UNoEsIRABLES
lENGTAENS

Certain events the past few days
should serve to remind us that prof
iteering on the part Of organized
labor isn't the only thing which needs
watching, not the only combination
of short sighted persons. The en-
ployers of garment workers, with
plenty of good reason for seeking to
reduce wages went about it in such
a high handed manner as to force
their employees into strike. 1t has
not appeared that any necessity
drove them to this course, and while
it is probable they will win. their
success will establish a feeling of
hostility which cannot be for long
conducive to anyone's interests.
The Atlantic Coast Tile, Mantel and
Crate Association, indicted last
summer for violation of the anti
trust laws, of having INDUCED in
practices, such as conspiracy in re-
straint Of trade and competition,
agreements with labor organizations
to prevent labor being furnished to
those not members of the associa-
ton, a nation wide conspiracy to con-
troll the building trade, in short, is
convicted out of the mouths of its d.
rectors who now plead guilty.
Really there are lot of folks out
of Jail who belong on the inside and
they are not all Of any one class, and,
if permitted a guess, all have not yet
pleaded guilty.

1t is natural that pacifists and ex-
cited. hunanitarians should stress the
evil consequences of the world war
at this time. 1T is equally natural
that foreign statesmen and public
agencies should join them in keeping
this phase of the European situation
before us. 1t gives a tremendous mo-
mentum to the pacifist propaganda,
and 1t relieves the governments and
peoples of Europe of large part of
their responsibility for the present
condition of their affairs.
But the American mind should
clear itself on this point. No one will

deny that the war is responsible di-
rectly for a vast wastage Of life and

A surprising feature Of the Con-
ference is that but for the French
delegates it would not be necessary
to have an interpreter, all the others
speaking English. And for many
years heretofore French has been the

discourage the student Of French.

THE BENEVOLENT DESPOT

Along back when there was less to
occupy the attention Of the newspa-
per writer's little discussion oc-
CURED respecting the eligibility of
Henry Ford for the presidency. Now,
while it is possible that Henry's abil-
ity to find money for securing that
which he wishes would afford him all
the eligibility certain promoters of
candidates might think necessary, 1t
surely would be unsafe for any con-
siderable portion of the public to ar
rive at a like conclusion.
Henry Ford's successes have been
attained by having his own way and
tolerating no opposition. There is no
evidence in sight that success as
President can be achieved in just
that way.
One OF the most appreciative ar
ticles ever written about this genius
is contributed by Judson c. Welliver
to the Review of Reviews. In this
the writer declares Of him: en- his
business he is frankly a benevolent
despor'
In his various enterprises Ford has
no use for stockholders nor boards Of
directors; he himself is It. Presum-
ably his habit Of doing things Is a
settled one; he could not change it
If he wished and there is nothing to
indicate that he would so wish.
Moreover, benevolent despots are not
being sought by the American public
to place in the presidential office.
They like 'em, admire their courage
and all that but experience has
taught them to distrust the results.
AS matter Of fact when the Amer
lean people really want a despot.

the country is in a mighty bad way.
1t is possible, too. that it would be

nevolent despotism applied to rail-
road management. Mr.. Ford is doing
things to that railroad he owns. 1t
might be that y he owned all the
railroads in the country he would run
them better than they are being run,
but 1t would be a serious question
what would happen when it should
become necessary to call in another
manager. Benevolent despots do not
live forever. Not but there is lot to
be learned from Mr.. Ford's expert
ments with railroading. Not only
employees but the men higher up may
learn something; also we are quite
sure the U. S. Labor Board and the
I Interstate Commerce Commission
could also learn something, though
whether they ever could practically
apply it may be questioned. All
things considered the chances are
that Mr.. Ford in work to which he
has dedicated himself Is doing the
most that he is capable of doing.
