cH1LDREN,s ACCIDENTS

Twenty thousand children are
killed each year by accidents, ac-
cording to figures given out by the
American Red Cross. The country
may spend its millions to fight dis
ease. And then 10000 of these little
ones. in their needless inexperience
throw themselves in the way OF
automobiles, fall ont of windows
and in other ways bring sudden and
devastating grief.
Some of these tragic fatalities
could be avoided by enforcement of
laws and growing sense Of decency
The motorist who tears through u
thickly settled street and considers
needless children AS guilty Of their
own destruction. has elements of
murder in his heart.
Children have a love for danger
Gus places. They climb to the top
Of tall tree and enjoy soaring their
frightened parents. A mild appli-
cation of the rod when they get too
risky would avert some perilous
stunts

the ends it had long dreamd about.
The promoter was asked how they
did it. He said they had just two
secret rules. These were as follows:
Rule L. Appoint no orators as
chairman OF committees.
Rule Appoint no committeeman
who will not commit
All they had done in previous ef-
forts was to hold enthusiastic meet
ings, but they did not back them
un with enthusiastic work. After
man had made good speech in
favor Of a thing, he seemed to feel
that he had done his full duty, and
could not afford to give any more
OF his valuable time to It, This
time they put real workers as chair
of committees, instead of orators.
When they did that. they began to
get things done.
II might be mentioned incidental
ly that in many successful town
progress movements, the best work
ers have been young men. often
newcomers in the place, men who
felt they had record to make and
were willing to give time and
trouble.

A CONTRAST WITH 1913

The announcement that Charles
e. Hughes is to be Mr.. Hafding's
secretary of state, has assured the
public that high range OF states
inanship will control our interna
tional relations which in present
administration have become in
volred in an almost inextricable
tangle. 1t is a nomination that con
trssts most strongly with that ori
ginally made by Mr. Hardin.'s pre-
decessor.
Mr. Bryap's appointment in 1913
as secretary OF state would be de-
tended today by few people as fit
selection. Mr. Bryan has many plea
SAINT and engaging qualities and his
honesty is universally respected
But the administration Of interna
tional relations calls for wholly
different type OF mind and Of eX-
perience.
Yet Mr.. Wilson had practically no
other choice than to give him that
post He knew he would have to
win tho support OF Mr.. pryan's fol
lowers t. the party rrogrs'G which
he was laying out. These elements
had followed in the past all sorts
Of erratic financial and political
vagaries. Had they been offended
by casting Bryan outside the breast
works, they would have opposed
the federal reserve act and other
legislative plans that Mr.. Wilson
had formulated
With Bryan made one of the team
and his consent secured to the VIII
son program, it became possible to
get partial control over the wild
horses OF the democratic party But
the appointment of Bryan to a
place for which he was not fitted
was a tremendous price to pay
Fortunat ely the Republican party
IS not so loaded down by great shal-
low thinking elements, that it has
TO make Il poor appointment to its
highest position for motives of con-
citation. Its president elect has
been free to name one OF the ablest
statesmen of tbs generation, to

WORRIED LEST MEADE
MAY BE ABANDONED
, BY WAR DEPARTMENT

Persons interested in. Camp Meade,
dis county. are worried over the ex7
pectation that when the Mckenzie sub
committee of the House MlteTy AZ
fairs Comminee ,mabea iIsl lTpqrt on
the army camps in few days it will
recommend the abolition Of some OF
them. 1t is believed, hQwever, that if
the War Department is given discre-
ton Meade will have reasonably
good chance of being retained.
Behind the probable recOmmenda-
ton that some Of the nine big camps
be disposed of is the economy fight
that has been directed against army
and navy appropriations in the House
for weeks.
Chairman Julius Kahn. of the
House Committee on Military Affairs,
said last night that in his judgment
it would he necessary to consolidate
camps where possible. and. in some
cases. to disIose of those that cannot
be consolidated. He explained that
the economy enforced upon the army
in the appropriations makes reduc-
tion in the number of camps essential.
One thing in favor Of Alsasln is the
value it has as 10 climate. location.
drainage and other prhetieai sconsidt
erations. Because OF this, plus its
proximity TO Washington, it is beliey-
ed that if the War Department is given
discretion. and if the department does
not find itself pressed for money TO
such an extent that only two or three
camps can be held Meade will have
reasonably good chance to being
kept
