The Rebellious Moplahs.
They Transport the Coffee Which
Later Is Called Mocha.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The out
break of the Moplahs is surprising. The
last time they ran amuck was some
seventy years ago. when they broke 'is0
the house of the collector of Mailbar
and killed him and his wife.
That Gandhi. who, understand, Is a
low caste Hindu, should be invited to
mediate in the affair seems absurd, es-
pecially as it is said that the Moplahs are
massacring the Hindus, which is great
deal more likely. That the Mohamme-
dams OF India. most OF whom are Shiahs,
should be melted to rebellion by the
Moplahs seems also very unlikely. The
Moplahs are not good Mussulmans. The
followers of Islam are permitted four
wives. The Moplahs, or Ma Pi!lays-
Mothers Sons-are the offspring Of
polyandry, which is very unorthodox.
Usually they are peaceable traders
and sailors. making speciality of cof-
fee. Practically all Mocha coffee is
shipped from Cochin in dhows and bug
galas to Bombay. where 1t becomes
Mocha coffee and is transshipped under
that name to Europe. Some comes here
direct and becomes Mocha and Java.
However. self-determination seems to
cover a multitude Of queer things.

Peru's New Life.
Consult General Higginson Looks for
Closer Ties With America.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: ! have
read the letter headed New Life In
Peru" by Frederick L. Hoffman and the
accompanying editorial article America
in Peru
Permit me to express my qualification
at the broad minded policy carried out
by your paper in publishing articles of
this nature. 1t Is indeed regrettable
that too often publications In this coun-
try, belittling the Importance of their
South American neighbors, are quick
to publish articles Of disparaging ma
ture and slow to print articles which
better show the true nature OF these
countries.
The letter was not only interesting and
comprehensive but also very timely as it
comes at time when Peru has just
finished celebrating her one hundredth
anniversary Of independence, which has
in itself done considerable to create more
fraternal relations between the people
of this great Republic and the citizens
of the country which l have the honor
to represent EDUARDO HrGGINsoN,
Consul-General of Peru in the United
States.

The Check to the Bonus Idea.

To the American young man the
price of citizenship, the price of the
inestimable boon of citizenship, is
his obligation to meet any military
demands upon him that his country
may make.
For such service to his country
citizenship is the reward; not
bonuses.
THE NEW YORK HERALD welcomes
the decision OF the Court OF Appeals
concerning the Soldiers Bonus act
because, in the first place, we believe
the courts Interpretation of the
fundamental law of New York to be
sound and its stated reasons unan-
swerable. The act passed by the
Legislature is unconstitutional IN the
opinion of the ultimate judicial au-
thority in this State. For months this
newspaper has been indicating the
probability of such result when the
State Bonus law should reach the
Court OF Appeals. The decision pre-
serves a proper and necessary safe
guard in the interest Of all the peo-
pie of the Empire State, the members
of the American Legion along with
the rest. Any other decision would
nullify the Constitution.
But there is broader reason for
regarding with satisfaction the check
which the general scheme Of money
distribution among all ex-service
men has received at Albany. The
incident can scarcely fail to give
pause in other quarters; to suggest
a second thought concerning the per-
nicious idea that cash bonuses should
be the price of the military service
rendered by American soldiers and
sailors at the call of their country.
The rejection Of the New York
Bonus law as invalid because the
law enacts a gift" when gifts of
public money are prohibited by the
Constitution should set the advo-
Gates and claimants OF bonuses
everywhere thinking about the mo-
rality of that which they advocate
and the character Of the claims they
advance. The Albany decision serves
to emphasize the eleemosynary char
acter of the distribution of cash on
the horizontal plan.
Let the level headed ex-service man
who in any other relation would
scorn a money gift for duty done
reflect again on the nature of the
transaction proposed in his name
and in his behalf but in numberless
instances without his full under
standing and acquiescence.

Workers and PAYERS.

Within the past forty-eight hours
there have come from Berlin two
reports Of events commanding the
attention Of all percipients.
On Wednesday there occurred in
the German capital mighty demon
stration of loyalty to the republic.
The labor organizations, the Social
lists, even the Communists following
the red flag, united in a remarkable
pledge OF support for the present
Government as against any mon
archist or militarist attempt at reac-
ton. And the backbone Of this
great element Of strength and factor
Of hope is the circumstance that Ger
many's workers, to the number Of
ten millions, are lined up for resis-
lance to the sinister agitations which
President EBERT's proclamation has
denounced.
On Tuesday the Vice-President OF
the Reichsbank, OTTo Won GLAsE-
NApP, announced that the German
Government had paid the billion gold
marks due on the last day of August
under the terms Of the treaty.

Evening Mystery.

From the Nation and the Ath6Tdcuni.
Now ragged clouds in the west arc heap
ing.
All the hedges seem a-weeping,
And in a thin green distance flowers
The moon, the blossom Of lonely hours.
The moon she lightens on a myriad
meadows
And her rays wander among wood shad-
ows.
Ere the last of sunsets flown
She has made a. new world of her own.
Old farm houses with their white faces
Fly, and their ghosts have taken their
places
Even the sgnposts like grim liars
Point to losing brakes and briars.
Tired birds roosting are not yet sleeping,
But stir and mutter at the wild eyes
peeping,
And sheep will not let silence lie,
But blare about the hilltop sky
AS though long plotting dogs had broken
From kennel chains. by the ringleader
spoken,
To harry the ewes in the light OF the
moon
The blood on their Jaws will hang EN-
anon.
But no, for miles the sheepfolds moan.
And dogs bay from their farms alone
Can she who shines so calm be fear!
What poison pours she in slumber' 8

FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 2. 1921.
MIR. Lasker's Broadaxe.

The most refreshing and encour-
aging news of departmental nature
that has come out OF Washington
in many moons-many years, in
facts the report that Chairman
LAsKEE of the Shipping Board has
ordered the dismissal of 622 unneces-
sary clerks and minor officials from
the payroll of his branch of the Gov
eminent service This is the very
kind of broadaxe work that THE
NEW YORK HERALD has been advocat-
ing and urging upon the Administra-
ton.
Commenting on this act of the
Shipping Board Chairman the Wash
ington dispatches say that the dis
missal OF these superluous employees
by Mr.. LAsKER will bring down on
his head the most bitter attacks of
all the patronage mongers in Con-
gress. This, considering the state
of the public finances, is inconceiv-
able. Any Senator or Representa-
tive who protests against the elimi-
nation OF unnecessary Government
employees Is not fit for his job and
should himself be eliminated.
Nothing could be more intolerable
than that an officer of the Govern
ment should block the wheels of eco.
nomical management. Nothing
would be more fiaccid than depart
ment or bureau head who consents
to keep on unnecessary employees in
obedience to patronage mongers.
In the event that Chairman LAS
KER finds himself sorely assailed by
Congressman who insist that their
appointees shall be protected THE
New YORK HERALD will cheerfully
come to his aid by opening it's col
umns to him through which he may
present any contentious case to the
public for the public's verdict. With
such comeback at his command we
cannot fancy Mr.. LAsKER seriously
troubled.
What is true of the Shipping Board
is true of all the Government offices.
The heads OF departments, bureaus,
boards and commissions should fol-
low the example of LAsKEB in the
reduction of expense in spite of
greedy politicians. Puny whiting
Is not enough; get the axe-the
broadaxe!-andc chop out all the dead
wood. This is honest and efficient
service to the Government.

Graft In the Markets.

The Meyer committee did well to
send Immediately to the District At
torney's office for presentation to
the Grand Jury the testimony rela'
tive to graft in the Department of
Public Markets.
No fewer than nine incidents in
which money was either paid or de.
manded for favors in the markets
have been brought to light during
the investigation. Some of the graft
is said to have gone directly into the
pockets of market officials, some to
Tammany Hall workers, but 1t was
all graft and not even the honest
graft" that politicians used to excuse
themselves for taking.
The dramatic elimination Of the
legislative inquiry came when the
Commissioner OF Public Markets,
OMALLEY. fled from the witness
stand under the fire of questions re-
lating to the alleged graft. As the
Meyer committee could question him
no further it was proper that the
Grand Jury should at once be in
formed OF the testimony relating to
O'MALLEY and his subordinateS in
order that all the truth about the
market scandal may be known, the
guilty punished and any unjustly
accused exonerated.
That there is rottenness in the
market department nobody who has
read the testimony, even in the most
casual way, can doubt. The markets
might be reformed now by the re-
moval of O'MALIEY. But O'MALIEY
can be removed only by the Mayor.
Mr.. HYLAN declines to take him out.

seeking publicity. Shades of DANIEL
BOONE, who deserted Kentucky be-
cause, when a settler turned up a
dozen miles from his house, he
thought the place was getting too
crowded!
We suspect that the reason for the
dissension in the motor car caravan
is to be found in Exodus, in that
part which relates to the unanimous
murmuring OF the ancient pioneers
against MOSES and AARON when they
had come to the Wilderness OF Sin
and thought Of the fieshpots of
Egypt. Not that we would compare
Nebraska to the Wilderness Of Sin,
but most of the motor pioneers come
from Brooklyn, and that borough is
a thousand times more attractive
than poor old Egypt.
1t is easy to imagine the thoughts
OF some of the Idaho caravan party
as they buzz along the roads of the
West. A picture OF dear old Brook
Ign and it's delights fits across their
mental screens: the good neighbors,
the long rows of houses, Prospect
Park, with it's flowers and croquet
battles; the churches, the ride to
Coney Island, the historic trolleys,
the rising land values in FIatbush,
the Fulton street shopping, the big
league baseball--all these are being
left behind. What can Idaho offer
that compares?

Another Balloon Warning.

The destruction Of the navy bal
looms at Rockaway, following closely
the zR-2 tragedy, emphasizes the
danger of this form of aircraft.
Here and in Europe, both in war
and peace, the experience with huge
lighter than air machines has been a
pretty dismal record. The failures
overshadow the successes. AS there
IS no certainty that the balloon ship
can ever be so constructed as to hold
its own against the elements, the
United States would better stop play
ing with the big gas bags and direct
its men and money toward the i'm.
provement of sure thing.
For the airplane is a sure thing,
at least in comparison with the
lighter than air machines. 1t can
battle with storms; it is safe from
electricity. Each year new devices
make it safer, stronger and faster
What the United States needs, in the
event of another war, is supply of
airplanes fit to attack and defend In
the new naval warfare. We must
have airplanes strong enough to carry
huge bombs and fast enough to meet
invaders and pursue the planes
which they will be sure to carry.
Let us put the balloon aside, at
least for the present, and devote
American ingenuity to a task in
which there is no longer speculation
as to it's ultimate success.
