The statement Of President Hodg-

The fact that the university head

men have felt the appeal Of the hos.
pital and its work so strongly that
they have endowed such institutions
by will. In some cases such be-
quests have been counted in mil
lions and great hospitals, like the
Johns Hopkins hospital in Baltimore
have sprung up in consequence and
spread wide their arms to suffering
humanity everywhere. Pehaps il
all the small gifts to hospitals were
added up they would equal or ex-
ceed those of the millionaire be-
quests. Many of them come from
comparatively poor men who have
themselves experienced the advan-
tages the hospital offers. But no
man or woman needs to delegate to
their executors the pleasant task OF
aiding and helping the hospitals in
their splendid work. Gifts OF linen
for bandages, jellies, fruits, pre-

NATIONAL HOSPITAL DAY
May 12, has been

Day, the anniversary Of numerous
patriots, saints and others set aside
as a national holiday. Hospital Day
is new one and more supported by
good reason and sentiment than
many of the others. Quite appro-
priately May IL is the birth date of
Florence Nightingale, a nurse in
the Crimean war who achieved
fame by reason Of her improvements
in the care and sanitation Of camp
hospitals for wounded soldiers, and
so she is regarded as the pioneer in
hospital work. So recent is the be-
ginning Of the hospital movement.

HARDING'S BIG STICK
POLICY

1.-THE first sign of the revolt Of a
section Of the Republican par
ty against the leadership Of their
newly elected president came to
light in the house Of representa-
tives the other day in violent oppo-
sition to the increase Of one hun
dred million dollars in the naval
construction bill. This increase in
the bill as it came to the senate
from the house was put through
the senate under the plea that
President Harding had asked for
the increase and the administration
wanted it put through. But the Re-
publican leaders Of the house were
alarmed at the political conse-
quence of this vast increase in ex-
penses at a time when they have
been standing off all sorts Of de-
mands for money on the part of
their constituents on the plea that
Uncle Sam was hard up and could
not possibly spare the money. The
matter was rendered even worse
by the fact that the army bill has
come back to them from the senate
with a large increase in the appro-
priation. ........
How in the dickens do the SEN
ators expect US to 60 before the
people in a little more than year
from now and defend ourselves aft
er all the roar we have been max
ing about economy with these err
orzously increased appropriations
for the army and navy, declare the
house leaders. It is political sui
eide. When we had Democratic
administration in the White House
we could tell the people that we
wasted the taxpayers money in
great appropriations. because the
wicked Democrats at the head of
the departments asked for the
money and we were too good ma
tured to refuse it to them, and be-
sides we did not give them all they
asked for, but cut them down some,
as they expected we would. But
now with Republicans in those
places the old gag will not work
any more.
In fact. the house leaders seem
determined to cut these big army
and navy appropriations down to
their original limit in spite of Pres
ident Harding's plea and the pleas
Of all his department chiefs. And
the men who want more money to
irrigate desert lands in the west,
more money to put into good roads,
more money to reclaim swamp
lands, stump lands; more money to
improve river navigation in order
to cheaper transportation, more
money to lend farmers, more money
to give as bonus to soldiers, more
money for a hundred different
projects that seem most important
to them, are pointing to this hun
dred million that the Republican
senator's are willing to put into
ships to be sunk by agreement of
the nations ! few years later if ma
val disarmament is agreed on, and
they are saying If President Hard
ing can get an extra hundred mil
lions out Of congress for this ex-
travagance why can't he get the
few millions or hundred millions
we need for a far bYter purpose.

A PROPHET WITHOUT
HONOR

IT is mighty dangerous role for
l any Republican newspaper to
assume when it undertakes to tell
its readers in advance what Presi-
dent Harding will do with relation
to the Versailles peace treaty, with
the League of Nations SO woven
into its structure that Senator
Lodge declared in the senate cham
ber that it would take more than
one hundred amendments to sepa-
rate the treaty from the covenant
of the League Of Nations. It IS
dangerous to predict in advance
what President Harding will do on
this subject because he has appar-
entity veered from north to south 4
score of times in stating his opin-
ions, and his recent action in ap-
pointing Col. George Harvey as his
representative to take part in the
supreme council is the latest switch.
He may switch back again when he
hears from Borah, Johnson ct al.
Meantime the Philadelphia Public
Ledger finds itself hanging up in
the air in silly attitude for sup
porter of the administration be-
cause it undertook to tell in ad-
vance what the president would do
on this question of being represent
ed on the supreme council. Just
before the president accepted an in
vitation to join them and take the
old chair Of Woodrow Wilson the
Philadelphia paper said:
"There is little chance that the
United States will accept the invi-
tation of the allied supreme council
to send representative as a mem
ber of that body. Or that other
Americans will so as members OF
the reparations commission and the
council Of ambassadors.
"Of the American cabinet. it is
probable that Hughes and Hoover
would favor such a move. Presi-
dent Harding, if he has not changed
utterly since he fought anything OF
the kind as Senator Harding, Of
Ohio, would oppose it. Everybody
knows where the 'irreconcilables'
of the senate stand. The bitter
enders' would be made extremely
unhappy and perniciously active.
Under the circumstances, 1t is
doubtful if American public opinion
would favor it. To accept places
on these bodies would be sort OF
a halfway measure, unsatisfactory
at home and abroad. We would be
half in and half out Of the PROPOSE
ton. These organizations are crea-
lures of that treaty which we re-
iected when we rejected the league.
To 20 in, as we should go in, we
ought to be ready to enforce any
decisions by blockade or by force
Of arms. There is not the slightest
evidence from past or present ut
terances of the men now in power
that we are ready to do anything |
of the kind.
1T is probable that we are not
expected to accept the invitation. ,
Europe hardly expects anything Of
the kind. Doubtless there is much /
gratitude on the part of the nations
still wrestling with the slippery
and fard-mouthed German for our
flat rejection of the last German
bid. Being grateful, they seek to
compliment US; and the invitation
may be that compliment. It hardly
can be looked at as anything more
than that-just compliment and
expression Of goodwill.
mot that England and France
would not welcome our whole
hearted help. They would, but
they have been learning through a
little more than two years that we
are in no mood for that"
