Unity Out Of Contention.

~ UT of all the ruck and the muss of contend
" ing nationalisms in this country, is coming
a clearer, purer, wiser Americanism The British
Irish controversy the Sims climax, the pro-German
propaganda the zeal for Greece the contention over
Siesa, the many object lessons in all parts of the
world, are giving the people of this country a
clearer vision Of just what it is to be American.
1t is combination of events which, in the
mass, are most impressive. Not in the life of this
country have world events so combined as to give
anything comparable in making this country stand
distinctive in its institutions and its national in
terest. At the Same time with the equally iffesst-
able logic of conditions, the obligations of the
United States unit to all other nations and
peoples, have been forced upon the national
sciousness.
1t is not to any one people, nor to any
body of nationals, obligations due The
people of this country have fed and helped to
cothe those of all others without distinction. From
famine e-stricken China, to war-strcken Europe,
help has gone. There has been nothing of bombast
or boast in this, but recognition both of moral
Obligation and of the fact that our future is
bound up in world recovery.
Americans getting less boastful and
of themselves; they talke less of their right
eousness and practice it sincerely; they brag
less OF what they have done and do, but have
keener rcallZatOn OF present QutfeS. lncy 90 not
hug the cloak of their virtues so tightly about
themselves, but inclined to recognize the
faults conceals. All good did originate here
and there is lot for all Americans to do besides
throwing stones
There is far stronger, saner interest growing
in the United States country. This
very strength and sanity is bringing the broadened
view of the place of this country in the world 1t
is haltng the singing out of this that nation as
the chosen recipient of our interest and help,
and promoting all-incusiveness basis quite
of equality. Controversy is good; clash of opinion
is good; the warning of individual sympathies is
good. They all help to the end that only
united people, recognizing ourselves a national
unit with but the single nationality, the United
States bear its part and prove that righteousness,
that integrity and unselhshness, which in the near
past has been the rather unimpressve boast of our
oratory.

Refer to Negro Outrages.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
Z. b. Henderson. of Falls Church,
Va, in his letter printed June l3 re-
fers to the improper meaning of the
word assault" in connection with
the race riots in Tulsa. Okla. In
all probabilities the negro boot
black was too ill-mannered or too
tough" to ask the pardon OF the
white girl upon whose foot he
stepped. The bootblack then got
what he deserved when he was
slapped in the face. The negro's
retaliation in striking the girl was
just an example of the spirit many
other negroes have shown in the
scores of assaults upon white wom-
en- in this country.
There has been no application of
an improper meaning of the word
assault" In Washington in connec-
tion with the many outrages COM
mitted by negroes. Take the nu-
merous attacks by negroes upon
white women in Washington in the
past few months wherein the vic
Tins have been either beaten, robbed
or killed. Could there be any i'm
proper meaning of the word "as-
sault" in those cases7. Only in one
way. and that is that the word AS
ssult" is not forcible enough to de-
scribe the outrageous happenings.
Many instances could be cited, but
the space will not permit. The gen.
tleman's hopes for better race rela-
tions can be realized only when. the
proper respect is shown the white
people by the negroes.

Blessed Be Poverty.

THERE those who find it hardship to have
been born poor, though most Of the rich of
America born into that state, but a
generation from shirtsleeves. There those who
do not hesitate to say they cannot afford to have
children. There also, those who rather cynic-
ally remark that only the very rich and the very
poor can afford such luxuries in their homes.
But it left to specialists of the American
Medical Association to give another slant to this
moot question of the poverty or riches which come
to child life by the incident and, may be, accident
OF birth. Their researches discovered ttat malnu-
triton and stunted development twice as
prevalent among the children of the rich as among
the children of the poor
The unfortunate child of wealth is sort of
exhibit "a in the family mansion. From babyhood
to adolescence, it is glass case possession much
like the artificial flowers on the old-time center

mission to live just as child. 1t is gwen every
thing except what is wholesome. -~v-
Manutrition is not merely result of not
having. enough to eat. 1t apparently comes with
double frequency from having too much along with
too much of other things In other words as ply
sicans all recognize, it is quite apt to come from
the head as from the stomach Right living is
mainly right thinking. Healthy digestion comes
with healthy brain.
These poor little rich youngsters live m an
artificial social and mental atmosphere Simplicity
word not found in the dictionary of their house
hold life. Complexity is their regular diet Irreg-
ularity is their daily habit. Is it to be wondered
that the strength of this country comes from below
the line of what can even be imagined to- be wealth.
The United States is now the richest country in
the world. but it is blessing for which all should
be ardenty thankful, if this wealth is indeed in he
hands of few. Riches produce weakness; poverty,
strength and any nation endowed with poverty
and intelligence may we'll rank itself as blessed

SHANGHAI. June Is. - Voicing
protestse as the representative of
China's business men, the Chinese
general chamber of commerce at
Shanghai has sent kilograms to all
parts of the world against a re-
newal of the Anglo-Japanese al
lance. Messages have been sent to
the British cabinet, parliament; the
governments of Canada, Australia,
and India. the United States con-
gress and to the governments of
Italy and France.
All the messages state that the
Anglo-Japanese alliance constitutes
one of the most serious menaces to
peace in the far east. They express
the. belief that Japan without the
alliance will be disarmed and will
not be able to continue with it's
territorial expansion, which threat
ems Chinese sovereignty. They de-
clare the alliance Is causing an
estrangement of the British and
Chinese people and will lead to Sc
rious impairment of British COM
merce and urge the adoption of all
measures to prevent a renewal of
the alliance.

Redistribution.

& ENATOR SMOOT has placed the administra-
- ton Of his proposed law practically with the
heads of departments and of the disassociated
establishments of the government He makes the
Bureau of Efficiency a check the operation of the
law, with responsibility to the President This may
be good or bad; it may or may not be preferred by
these heads of government activties 1t sllots to
them very large sized job to which none of them
is apt to give any great of personal atten-
ton.
1t would to tend to extend the authority
of bureau chiefs to whom the heads would almost
necessarily give the burden of responsibility In its
practical workings this would be apt bring into
play the political as we'll as the personal element
Government service is distinctive from private be-
of this political factor which should have as
little opportunity possible, and as little power as
possible. Merit at BEST has less opportunity in
public than in private employment.
Under this bill the President through the Bureau
of Efficiency is to prescribe the rules and regua-
tons for its operation. The President is authorized
to supplement the schedule if found to be suffi-
cienty descriptive m its 200 specifications
making it applicable to all civilian positions and
that all salaries shall give equal pay for like or
similar services" But he is not authorized to in
crease the number of separate grades change the
saaries designated. The Bureau of Efficiency is the
agency under the Presidents direction
Under these rules and regulations the heads of
the various services allocate the positions to
the various grades and in this way FIX the salaries
of all employees. If the specifications do not exactly
define the work to be DONE the one most nearly
applicable shall be used. The department heads
shall also FIX the salary within the limitation fixed
for each grade on basis of efficiency, they being
in fact, the sole judges to this. But the total
number of persons employed shall conform to any.
limitations placed by law and this is wise provi-
sion, recognizing the political factor which does
not seem to be sufficiently guarded against in the
bill a whole.
To summarize the Smoot bill with which the
Wood bill in the House is Identical it provides
eighteen grades based entirely upon salary starting
at grade with pay ranging from 5000 to 5000 and
closing with grade eighteen at $500 Under these
grades there are 200 specifications descriptive
OF the kind and quality OF the service required for
the pay which is specified Of this over 200, there
are but thirteen in the first four low paid grades and
but thrty-hve in the last grades with salaries
ranging from a minimum of SI,I4o to maximum of
$1,000 This indicates where the bulk of the employees
fall. 1t leaves administration with the Cabinet
and heads Of establishments with the Bureau of Eff
cheney as operation check, and to an outsider
this seems to give too much opportunity to this
political element

Germany's Future.

THE very interesting article in The Herald of
i last Sunday by Sir Phillip Gibbs written from
Berlin indicates that the next generation of Ger
mans tried in the FIRE of industry and thrift, NAV
far excel in industrial rivalry. 1t is most signf-
can't result of the war that the victors who won it
are now deepest in the economic slough The
reason is not far to seek
In Great Britain, France and ItaIy and in tb.
United States after we became belleerent. tho
whole economic effort was directed to increased
production To this end wages had to keep pace
or exceed the increase in the of living Prices
and Prohts kept pace, and initiation met the demands
OF hnance Thrift, genuine thrift which means
curtailing of personal budgets and investment of
savings, was talked, but not practced Rather than
thrift the people got the habit of extravaganza.
The mass of the people in all these countries
had never before had so large a margin above
necessities When necessity, wages were supple
mented by bonuses and prizes reduced by the same
agency. Saving only came by law, and rationng
as to certain, foods and commodities, while this in
faet but increased the margin for spending This
was all as true in Germany as among her enemies
But strange it may seem it is not impossible that
her defeat will be her economic salvation.
Belgium alone of the allies was not ecopou;
cally involved in the support of the war. Her
people alone at the bread line They learned
more than thrift; they learned to appreciate the oy
of square meal, the privilege of work and the
boom OF wage which remained their own The
result is in her rapid recovery through the in
dustry of the people, the lack of labor unrest and
the contentment of the great in being restored
to the right to work, and to have, after having
learned through nothing the value of little.
And now Germany seems to have finally ac-
eepted the inevitable and to have determined pay
