REPUBLICAN CAUCUS

Nothing surprising was done at the caucus of the Republican members of tho Common Council last night. Nothing surprising was expected. The same machine will be in power ana city affairs will progress much as they have in the past. approve or criticize that management aa you will. - \ . But ono hope may be expressed. Perhaps it ia a forlorn hope. but for lorn hopes have been known to ac- complish results. and with this op- timism for the future; with the desire hope, it may be said that there would come greater benefits to the city were the cogg of the machine to become individual coga to a greater exten. than ever in the. past, despite tho facs that a slipping of a cog sometimes creates great havoc in the machine.

"CONCILIATION."

Yesterday President Harding spoke var. presented to the city of New York by the people and government of Venezuela.
 A most accurate mental picture of President Harding may be formed by few words taken from that address. He showed how comparatively peace full life might be by citing the Ameri- cas and the life of Americans. This much-to- be desired condition hs laid to the use of Consolidation. arbitra-

willingness of America to fight, if necessary. for the preservation of the Monroe doctrine, which he said was a fixed expression of the purpose that these continents should not again be regarded as a field for the colonial en- terprises for the old World Powers.
 But the cancellation, arbitration and judicial determination" atmos- phere pervaded all that he said and, it ,ia believed, inspires the man.
 Lofty are the ideals of our Presi- dent. If the world were peopled by men and women who held to his creeds and. it is believed, his prac- tices. there would probably be little need of a study of the complex prob lems that confront us. We might speak and act, trusting everyone with never a chance that our trust would be betrayed.
 But the millennium is not here. Teeth must be shown on occasions and used on occasions. "Concilia- ton" and arbitration should be the basis of national and international lite, but they should not possess a man nor a nation to such a degree that all plans, all actions would be based on an assumption of their suc- cess.

GAS MASK TO COVER
 ENTIRE BATTLESHIP
Inventcr of "Iewisite'' Tells West
 Pointers of What Next War Will be Like

West Point, N. r., Apri 2o.-A plan for the protection of battleships at sea against an enemyS poisonous fumes by the installation fa gas mask for whole ship was outlined in an address to officers and students or the military academy here today by Prof. w. l.. Lee Lewis, jhes.d of the chemistry department in Northwestern university and inventor of the deadly gas ''Lewisite," perfected just as the world war closed.
 We face the possibility in the naval warfare of the future o armour pierc- ing, toxic and tear shells, smoke screens, toxic smoke clouds and in visible toxic fumes he said. We also may consider in this connection paraI- lel defensive measures such as a gas mask for whole battleship.
 Gas weapons are capable of a much liner adoption to purpose than explosive weapons and the future will see worked out a great degree of scientific refinement in the develop ment of gass weapons for all types of military operations
 Future battles will not be to the strong but to the superior in intelli- gence. Warfare will become less a matter of brute strength and relative man power and more and more mat CT of scientific acumen. Battles will be shorter and more decisive and hence innocent Populations will suffer less.

"JEST RUNIINATIN'." :"
(Robert Russell.)

The days O sentiment are Sone," is what some people say, ''an' everythin' that's practical is on the throne to- day. You may not dream about the things that's far away, re- mote; you got to talk O things you like or things that get your goat. The details that's material are what folks want to know: they don't care bout the tendencies O this worlds passin' show" All this may be quite true an yet, reflected in some eyes, a feller often sees the light O things that never dies. The inspiration O that light ain't dollars an ain't cents-it's .somethin' that no concrete thing We see in life presents. Perhaps 'tis old time memories which bring a softened look: perhaps 'tis somethin' that's been read in some great. noble book; per- haps the scent O Springtime buds brings brightness to the heart, an in those eyes reflect ed one sees joys sweet counter part. Inspirin' are the face an eyes where love an truth hold sway-the days O sentiment ain't gone, no matter what folks say.

Ire escape one flight, catching the the mother to escape the flames.
 /The Epicureans of life-those who derive their greatest pleasure from luxurious living-and those who be- lieve that. the greatest of joy comes from self-indulgence. may go through life much as the deep student does. on the opposite side of the mental globe. Such people see or understand noth ing outside their limited pale. They never know the joy of contact with fellow beings; they never know the happiness of the exaltation that comes from a splendid deed splendidIy done. whether followed by popular app plause or not.
 Many young men, as they pass through their most energetic days are content to enjoy themselves They look forward to nothing but a contin- ual ability to have pleasure. They realize that they must work. and they are inclined to pick out the easiest sort of labor that will bring the greatest amount of money. Altruism does not enter into their scheme of things. They are good hearted and would aid a fellow in distress if it were not too much trouble. But Self is the dominant issue.
 Comparatively fey men have great things to look back upon-things they have done voluntarily at a sacrifice to themselves. but which have brought good to others. Comparatively few men therefore have experienced the great thrill.
 But this fact should deter no one from being on the watch for it. The chance may come in an humble. ob- scure way. but it will bring the thrill and future happiness. Perhaps the greater the suffering entailed the greater will be that happiness.
 So with noble lives. There need be no one great deed to mark them. The happiness will come from the very mo- bility of every small action.
 And the prerequisite of such happi- ness Is that the noble deed was not done, the noble life was not lived just because happiness was sought. The deed and the life should be the things sought. come what will.
 The act of this policeman was no more than might be expected of a brave. nervy, strong man. But it does suggest that he gained one of those thrills that may come only to those who are ready ever to do the great thing, to live the great life.

FRENCH HONOR
70 PIONEERS

Allied Military Headquarters, Neuss,
March IL. (By The Associated
Press. General Gaucher, commander
of French troops engaged in the
of the new tariff zone along
the Rhine, Thursday placed wreaths
on the graves Of French and German
soldiers who died during the war OF
1870 and the world conflict and were
buried in the military cemetery near
here. As he placed his tribute over
the tombs Of the Germans, he said:
.aThese died in obedience to military
ORDERS" while at the graves of the
French he said:
sThey were our pioneers"
Referring to kilograms from Dussel-
dorf to London, in which labor union
protested against General Gaucher's
proclamation prohibiting strikes, the
general declared they were sent as a
result Of an improper translation of his
announcement. In his proclamation he
said strikes of workmen operating
public necessities would not be toler-
ated but the German translation said
that no strikes whatever would be per-
mitted.
