Edward F. Colladay, Washington
Attorney, last night outlined before
ths suffrage group of the City Club
the contents of the Brief on Be-
tee Before Congress on National
Representation for the Residents Of
the National Capitol in Congress
and the Electoral Collie ge with Ac-
cess to the Federal Courts" which
will be heard by the committee this
morning.
Summed up briefly the following
reason will be urged in favor of a
Constitutional amendment empow-
eTiPg Congress to grant District
representation: The District is the
only national capital in the world
whose citizens have no voice in
national or local affairs; IL already
has more population than was re-
qUired Of any State except Okla
h5Hna upon their admission to the
Union; there is a sufficient number
OF persons Of intelligence in the
District to warrant the granting Of
suffrage, and history shows that the
right Of representation has never
bsSn denied the District by Con-
sress in the past, but merely de-
6eFred.
IS aot desired but what is wanted
IS adequate representation in Con-
g5ess and in the electoral college.
Roy L. Neuhauser, chairman of
hsgroup, announced that he would
attend the hearings. He explained
hat the group would cooperate
With the Joint Citizens Committee
on National Representation in the
presentation Of arguments before
he committee.

Fifth Avenue Signal Towers
o the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May I, as a citizen, respect
fully enter my protest against the
project to erect five permanent signal
towers in the center of Fifth Avenue :?
| am duly conscious of the great serv-
ice rendered to this city in the regula-
tion of its traffic by DR.. John A. Har-
riss and have no objection whatever
to his fine citizenship being recognized
in some substantial manner. But Fifth
Avenue is to-day one of the city's
greatest problems, and to honor Dr.
Harriss by further ciogging its traffic
seems to me folly
The signal towers have been great
success. The public has responded
creditably to their messages. But they
can be placed at the curb and do just
as effective work as if they were in the
center of the highway

An Apostle Of Cleanliness

DR.. Simon Baruch during his long
and industrious career won many
titles to grateful remembrance, both
public and private. None of them
is more impregnable than that for
which he himself probably preferred
to be most remembered, and which is
set forth in enduring bronze on the
wall of the public bath in Rivington
Street.
1t seems almost incredible to us
now that his proposal to establish a
system of public baths, "as free as
the parks" should for years have
met with little encouragement and
much opposition, and that three
Mayors of this city should have been
Indifferent to it. 1t was a noble
thing, for DR.. Baruch to persevere
in his efforts until they were
crowned with success, not alone in
New York but in other cities
throughout the land.
1t is altogether appropriate that
one of the great public baths in this
city. and another in Chicago should
bear his name, to be perennial
reminder to the multitude who pajoy
their use of his services in securing
their foundation and the foundation
of innumerable other such establish
ments. Millions Of Americans enjoy
cleanliness of person, and with it
health and comfort, in a way which
would have been impossible to them
but for the patient and resolute Ia
bors of DR.. Simon Baruch.

Federal Treaty Enforcement

Senator Kellogg has introduced a
bill, drawn by the American Bar AS
sociation, which aims at bridging
over an awkward gap in Federal
jurisdiction. At present the national
government makes treaties with for
eign countries, guaranteeing reci-
procity of rights and privileges. But
it is incompetent to enforce those
guarantees when a state happens TO
violate or annul them.
The inconvenience of this lack of
authority has gravely embarrassed
the national Administration many
times. When a New Orleans mob
lynched some italian subjects,
charged with being an organized
branch of the Mafia, the Italian gov
ernment demanded the trial and pun
ishment of the lynchers, as we'll as a
money reparation. Secretary Blaine
offered pecuniary indemnification,
but admitted that the Federal gov
ernment couldn't promise legal pros
|ecution. The Italian Ambassador,
Baron Fava, thereupon left Wash
ington for time as protest against
what he considered inadequate
amends. Mr.. Blaine was glad to set
tie the case by paying an indemnity
out of contingent funds Of the State
Department.
Washington has often had to urge
state governors to take legal action
against citizens OR others who have
committed acts of violence against
aliens. The Kellogg bill would per-
nit the Attorney General, when in
structed by the President, to inter
vene lin state courts to defend or
prosecute cases in which aliens are
involved, or to have the cases re-
moved to the Federal courts. Armed
with this power the Federal govern
ment could fulfill treaty obligations.
Its sovereignty would be co-extensive
with the sovereignty of the other
treaty signatory. 1t is highly desira-
bic that such an equality of status
should be established. The dignity
Of the United States is lowered and
its relations with foreign nations are
made more difficult every time it has
to beg off from a direct fulfillment Of
a duty which should be inherent in
it's exercise of the treaty making
power.
New-York tribune., 1921-06-04
Patriotism First

The interest of President Harding
in the international problems, and
especially in the problem of peace
maintenance, is shown by his con-
slant return to its discussion. In
practically every speech, as in the
one at Annapolis, the main burden
of his discourse relates to it.
During the campaign it suited par
tisan purposes to present Mr.. Har-
ding as Indifferent to the country's
world responsibilities. The slander
may now be regarded as dead. In
the grave with it is a sinister COM
panion-the insinuated charge that
Mr.. Harding would not have the
country do again what it did in 1917
and 1918.
Mr.. Harding, of course, is not able
tc express his thought in any exact
words. Who can that is honest with
himself and the public? He is not
able to map out detailed program,
and, to his credit, he will not say he
has no doubt as to things necessarily
doubtful. This unacceptable vague
ness opens the door to misconstruc-
ton, but risk of it must be taken.
He is not cocksure and has no intel
lectual pride about acknowledging
he isn't. He does not share the con-
fdence of his predecessor that one
man can take the world under his
individual control.
But what President Harding
would do should a crisis occur is
amply indicated by the orientation
Of his spirit. Its needle points to
peace maintenance and participation
in world affairs. But he is a work
ing idealist rather than an adver-
tiser of his ideals. This attitude
may not be pleasing to dogmatists or
t. those more interested in seeming
to do than in doing, but there is
plentiful evidence that his fellow
countrymen generally understand
and respect it.
At the Naval Academy the Presi-
dent naturally and properly empha-
sized patriotism and the claims Of
nationalism. But this implies no
disregard of internationalism Our
forefathers toasted an indivisible
union of indestructible states. In a
somewhat similar manner Mr.. Har-
ding's toast is to form a federation
of perpetual nations. And with
things as they now are and are likely
to continue, the independence of ma
tions, it seems to him, is more es-
sential and more ideal than a world
federation.
New-York tribune., 1921-06-04
Sinful Difference

Greenwich Village, that Arcadian
neighborhood whose bucolic bliss
proved that rural simplicity was
possible in the shadows of sky
scrapers, pays the price of too much
publicity. Less celebrated vicinages
are envious. Those who like any
color provided it is blue are wagging
the tongue of slander.
1t is, Of course, useless for the
Village to give facts and statistics
to mention it's low death rate or that
its policemen have nothing to do,
that its pleasures are innocent and
pastoral. A hue and cry is on. The
baying Of the killjoys, who have an
unconquerable aversion to singular
ity or the repute of it, will doubtless
continue until a district redeemed
from squalor and shabbiness is sub
dued to the tenement type. 1t is i'm
pudent for artists and students who
like flowers in window boxes to flock
together. 1t is vicious for them to
bob their hair when they are too
busy to comb it.
Farewell to Brunos garret-a
most comfortable one, with pillows !!
Farewell to the Pink Coal Scuttle, to
Three Steps Sidewise, to the Dust
pan, to the Peagreen Moon and
other delectable places. Visitor to
New York, get thee to a regular lob
ster palace! Don't sit on hard
bench; loll in a plush chair and grin
at yourself in mirror! The Village
had fancy for eccentric names and
aroused suspicion. Space writer's
wanted themes for copy and editors
would accept stories about a Latin
Quarter if sufficiently exaggerated.
And, finally, up rose another group
Of real estate operators who had
studios elsewhere that they would
rent to artists and to those who like
to hang about them. It's a sad tale,
and, horrible thought, if the Village
is abolished whittier will the Carol
Kennicotts flee when they can't stand
Gopher Prairie longer?

forbid lending concerns to earn as
much on money advanced to builders
as on money advanced to other bor-
