was had by every one Of the 40 en-

A novelty in having the name Of

cry speech end or begin with some
term familiar to the druggist proved
highly entertaining.

idea that he can b assisted in any

Help the Criminal Courts.

1t is always of the utmost impor-
tance to this city that the courts Of
General Sessions dispose of their cases
without delay. When crimes of vio-
lence in New York are unprecedented
both for their numbers and for their
boldness it is an imperative demand
that the criminal courts be able to
act with. vigor as well as despatch
This they cannot do when swamped
under nearly 1.S00 cases. There is n
vacancy on the bench and one Of the
Judges has been long Ill, as Judge
MALONE also was for considerable
period before his death, with a re-
sultant banking up of work during
his incapacity and pending the APP
pointment of his successor.
Both the Supreme Court, with its
function OF helping the General Ses-
siops Judges when necessary, and Gov
ernor MILLER, with his power of ap-
pointment, will make no mistake to
give prompt and effectual attention 10
this pressing need of New York city.

At the Town Hall.

The Town Hall, which has been
opened to the public at 113 West
Eorty-third street this week, is de-
signed to afford an auditorium for
discussion of political problems In
which the discontented, the reformer,
the satisfied and the reactionary may
have q full and fair hearing if they
refrain from violence and pay the
janitor's fee and the cost Of heat and
light.
Such an institution is sorely needed
in this town, and we hope the women
and men who have built 1t will be
able to maintain it as an open forum.
At present the defenders Of the es-
tablished order, the men and women
who think civilization should continue
to improve through evolution and not
he smashed by revolution, have
pretty hard time here when they
want TO air their views.
If anybody here in New York wants
to dismember another nation, there
Is no difficulty in getting a hall and
police protection. When IL occurs to
an earnest young Bolshevist, Rus
sian, Italian or parlor, that it would
be desirable to repeal the Constitu-
tlon Of the United States and smash
democratic institutions, he can 20
ahead without fear of interruption
or interference.
But if 1t occurs to an old fashioned
American TO suggest TINT we ought to
mind our own business and permit the
subjects Of the other nations to set
tie their quafrels in their own way,
he is likely to find an auditorium pre-
empted by accomplished coughers, who
make it impossible for mere auditors
to hear his argument. Should an adj
vocntc of peace and good order set up
soap box and attempt TO expouud
his doctrine, he would find himself
in the midst OF tempestuous body Of
determined opponents who would make
short work OF his forensic endeavors.
Free speech here has come peril
ously close to meaning unlimited
license for those who preach anarchy
or socialism. or communism, and ST.
lencc rigidly enforced upon those who
have leaning toward sanity.
Only at the polls is the actual
strength Of each side made apparent
and there sanity wins Overwhelming
victories.
Decidedly, good sense, conserva-
tism and wisdom deserve hearing,
and we hope they will have an even
break with mushy scntimentality and
wild mems policies at the Town Hail

Man o. War Goes Home.

Man o. War, the greatest racehorse
tucky on Monday. He is through with
the racecourse. The rigors of train
ing are in the past, and it is the hope
of the thousands who hailed him as
champion that his children will be
worthy of their sire, in whose veins
courses the blood of English and
American thoroughbreds of the highest
quality.
1t is fitting that the residents of the
Blue Grass State should welcome Man
o. War becomingly. He has been a
credit TO their State and to the Nur-
sery Stud, where he first saw The
light. All Lexington and the sur
rounding country should be there to
see and applaud when this noble
creature displays his magnificent pro-
portions at the course of the Ken
tucky Jockey Club.
There are many who would have
liked to see the horse raced another
year, not only because Of the delight
he gave them but for the prestige he
conferred upon the entire thorough
bred family. Matchless in speed. per-
feet in temper and well nigh fault
less in conformation, it will be some
time before we look upon his like
again.

These figures will show that the in
huence OF the Irish race in the early
history of our people was small by
comparison.
There were undoubtedly some indi-
viduals and small groups who rendered
service of value; but as race the
influence of the Irish was small, COM
paratively nothing. III later years large
numbers of the irish have BEEN
along the lower levels of industry as
a rule, however--of great value. But
the Irish politician, in our towns and
cities particularly, has been a menace
TO really good government. There are
exceptions to this statement which
might fairly be taken but strong In
dictment could be drawn against them
as class.
There are persons of Irish blood help-
ing to make up our great America who
display the virtues and qualities which
make the true and real American, and
helping to make the foundations of the
present State secure. Such can only
deplore. and do no doubt, the present
state Of the Irish question, which will
never be settled until both parties TO
the feud come to reason and overcome
passion. which is feeling run wild.

Danish Sopranos Recital.

Miss Birgit Engell. Danish soprano
who made her American debut in
recital at Carnegie Hall on November
22, gave her second recital yesterday
afternoon in Aeolian Hall. Her pro-
gramme began with airs by Handel
after which she sang songs by John
Alden Carpenter. Mendelssohn, Schu-
bert Walter Kramer. Percy Granger
and Grieg. A second hearing Of this
singer served to confirm the impression
made earlier in the season.
Miss Engell did not sing technically as
well yesterday as she did In November.
She lost the pitch more frequently and
times with difficulty The upper tones
again suffered from occasional pinching.
while again the lower register of her
exceptionally good voice proved to be
of unusual beauty and value in ex-
preston.
Miss Engells singing was interesting.
as 1t was before, by reason of the strong
dramatic feeling which was revealed by
IL. She Is an interpreter whose emotion
al eloquence Is of more than ordinary
excellence, while she possesses superior
skill in the coloring of tone, an asset
which she uses with influence and al
most always with artistic judgment.
Her treatment Of text was also praise
worthy. The auditor at one of Miss En-
CELLS recitals will undoubtedly find
technical defects, but he will listen with
absorption TO renderings which have
clear and often affecting significance.
Conrad Bos played most sympathetic
accompaniments yesterday.

ZACHARY TAYLoRs knowledge of the

unerring. He supposed also that as
matter of course the Vice-Presldent
of the whole nation sat in the Cabinet.
On information to the contrary being
given him he wondered at what he
considered n waste of the national
resources. Yet he took not the initia
tive In 1910 of doing what Senator
HARDING, fulfilling a promise made in
July, 1920, has already done.

tation became acute he headed COM
mission which spent the greater part
OF last year endeayoring to make
peace between the natives and the
British, finally advising Great Britain
to grant independence to Egypt.
This was hailed as the view
of far sighted statesman and was
compared to the policy of the United
States toward Cuba. That was only
few months ago, but change ap-
pears to have occurred and the Brit
ish Parliament. before which the meas
ure for Egyptian selfrule is soon to
come, is not as ready to pursue the
course recommended by Lord MHNER
as it recently seemed. Perhaps the
thought OF ireland next or the sit
uation in the Near East causes Par
lament TO hesitate.
Lord MINER resigns his place in
the Cabinet after thirty-six years in
the serviceof the British Empire, whose
colonial domains he was efficient in
harmonizing. He gives possible hint
of his reasons In new edition of
England in Egypt" in the preface
to which he refers as follows to the
present situation:
Strangely enough. the view has
been expressed in some quarters that
any relaxation of British control over
the administration of Egypt would be
an abandonment OF the objects which
we have hitherto been pursuing in
that country. Nothing could be fur
ther from the truth. The establish
ment of Egypt as an independent
State, III intimate alliance with Great
Britain, so far from being a reversal
Of the policy with which we set out,
would be the consummation of it,"
The political future of this liberal
and accomplished colonial administra-
tor will be of great interest not only
in the British Empire but throughout
the world.
