1t looks like all the clothes IN the
world are scattered about. Mrs.

The New Year Pledge.

This is the day to take stock, being
the last day Of the year. the day OF
reckoning to consider that new leaf
that is to be turned tomorrow. Is it
to be turned, or not? Is any effort to
be made to start the year with a reso-
luton Of better conduct?
There is something more than mere
tradition in the regarding of New
Year day as a time for efforts at per-
sonal betterment. OF course. any
other day in the year is just as good.
but there is something about the first
day that invites endeavors for better
ment. Even If the good intention lasts
only a short time it is worth record
ing.
There is nobody who cannot find
some specific way Of self-improve'
ment, some habit to be broken. some
trait to be checked or corrected. No
body is perfect. and good resolutions
will not make the perfect man. But
even the best of folks can improve
themselves. They can be more con-
siderate Of others. more thoughtful.
more unse,fish, more tolerant and pa
tient. Strict righteousness is often
extremely Hsagreeable If it is not
mixed with human kindness and
compassion.
An eminent French psychologist Is
on his way to this country to teach
the American people, SO far as he can
reach them. how to help themselves
to better health. His prescription is
simple, consisting largely OF formula
or a "litany" in which me subject
gives daily assurance of being better.
Let this method apply to Other than
physical ills and the New Year start
with a resolution to 'be better in
every way every day Of 1923.

Further Naval Curtailment.

The naval appropriation bill, as
passed by the Senate yesterday. con-
tains unchanged the House provision
requesting the President Ito enter
into negotiations with the govern
ments Of Great Britain. France, Italy
and Japan. with the view OF reachins
an understanding or agreement rela'
tive to limiting the construction OF all
types and sizes Of subsurface and sur
face craft of 10000 tons displacement
or less and of aircraft.
Developments which followed Sena-
tor Borah's proposal to amend this
paragraph to provide for the call also
of an international economic confer
ence have reduced this request" by
Congress to the status merely OF an
amiable expression Of the wish that a
way NAV be found further to tighten
the burdens OF ornaments. without
arousing anywhere expectation OF i'm
mediate results. 1t will bring no en-
barrassment to the administration. the
President having effectively disposed
OF the matter III doNsh "A'S'' 80
his letter to Senator Lodge, he said
Of further armament limitation: such
an agreement is much to be desired.
whenever practicable, but we may
very reasonably postpone further en-
deavors along that line until the agree
ments made at the Washington con-
ference secure the final sanctions OF
all governments concerned"
That something needs TO be done.
and will be done. in the matter OF
limiting secondary naval craft Is ap-
parent to every one. in view OF the
construction programs which certain
foreign powers are undertaking. for
these programs demonstrate that COM
petitton in ornaments Is not to be
ended merely by removal OF compet-
tion In the building Of capital ships.
But it may be safely left to the minds
which planned the Washington con-
ference and made it a success to de-
termine when the time is ripe to strike
again. The provision in the naval bill
serves notice on the world that the
United States, best able Of all nations
to build ships Of war. is willing to go
still farther in the curtailment Of their
building-whenever it can be done
without impairment OF established
ratios Of naval strength.

Fourteenth Street Extension.

A bill is now pending in the House.
having passed the Senate. providing
for the extension OF 14til street
through the grounds OF the Walter
Reed. Hospital north to the District
line. This measure has the approval
of the highway commission and the
War Department. and is urgently de-
manded for the convenience Of access
to a large section Of the District now
confined to comparatively limited lines
Of approach. BY the extension Of 18th
street it win be possible to carry the
Capital Traction tracks nofthvard
and servo q rapidly developing region.
Careful provision has been made
against the undue disturbance Of the
hospital establishment. the tracks
being carried through under grade
within the reservation.
Although the bill has been now In
the House for several months pend
ing before the committee on military
affairs, 1t is still awaiting committee
approval, and consequently has had
no chance for passage. The present
session is drawing to a close and time
is now valuable. The hope is that this
measure, for which there are SO many
strong reasons and against which
there is no objection. will be taken
up at an early date by the committee
and reported to the House for passage.
so that the work on this much.needed
Improvement can start during the
next fiscal year.

should have escaped penalties while

reavement or absence from the city
or that the lady was assisting at some
one else's reception. The callers were
mostly men. They came afoot, IN
the horse cars and in hacks. and this
receiving custom was still general
when the herdics and hanson cabs
appeared on our streets.
1t was the custom for the women
at these receptions to serve eggnog.
apple toddy and strong punches. 1t
was widely believed that a reception
could not be q success-that Is, would
not attract many men-unless strong
drink was served. At that time tenn
perance sentiment was making head.
way, but had not spread very widely
among the people OF Washington.
The. temperance speakers and workers
pointed to the old fashioned New Year
reception as a horrible example.
Gradually the number Of these recep'
tions at which non-alcoholic drinks
were served increased. The sentiment
spread among the women that they
should not hand out strong drink to
men, and for this reason. and others.
the receiving" custom declined. One
reason was that Washington was
growing from a small town to large
city. and the number Of men having
no ACQUAINTANCE with the persons re-
ceiving, and taking advantage OF these
receptions, was increasing to an In
tolerable extent. And SO the custom
slowly passed away. New Year day
continues a day OF receiving and call
ing, but the receptions are on q OH
ferent basis than those Of two gen.
erations ago.

II SO, they are enjoying themselves
these days. They are hearing applaud

Ii shades are not allowed this privi-

Politics at Home
Mr.. Wilson As Warwick.

Only q few Of his friends. encour.
aged by assurances Of his improved
health. conceive of Mr.. Wilson as the
nominee of the next democratic pa
tional convention. The majority have
hopes Of his controlling that body,
and are specializing about his probable
choice for leader.
II he finds himself in position to
name the man, Mr.. Wilson will not
face as simple a proposition as Mr.
Bryan faced at Baltimore in 1912.
When the pinch came Mr.. Bryan had
but two men before him-Mr. Wilson.
who had never been, and Champ
Clark. who had always been. his
friend. To the surprise and chagrin of
Mr.. Clark and his followers. Mr.
Bryan bestowed his favor on Mr.. vii,
son. and thus. as events developed,
made him President. .
Mr.. Wilson will have several men
before him. all good friends and true,
in 1924.
Mr.. McAdoo stands near to him
too near for comfort in the matter of
this contest. If Mr.. Wilson were to
show at the start married. inclination
toward his son-in-law he would be
accused Of a sort Of nepotism, and
Mr.. McAdoo be injuued.
In the case Of Judge Clarke Of Ohio.
who has recently left the Supreme
bench to take a. hand in politics. Mr..
Wilson would have to choose between
him and Gov. Cox Of that state-a
choice that would be difficult by rea-
son Of the fact that Gov. Cox is still
as ardent an advocate of the league
of nations as in 1920. when as the
democratic nominee for President ne
received Mr.. Wilson's support on that
issue.
In the case of John w. Davis, a
highly attractive man, now of New
York. Mr.. Wilson, who feels most
kindly toward him. would have to
make some sort of overture to Tam
many. and that would not be easy.
He and Tammany are as the poles
apart respecting politics, and just now
TammanS is riding the crest Of the
highest wave that has ever rolled in
the waters of New York.
