No Need for Delay.

NFFICIALS of the Md-City Citizens Associa-
~ ton want a policeman stationed at Scott
Circle-at least during the hours when children
on their way to and from school We hope
they keep up the fight until something is accom-
plshed. Scott Circle, at the intersection of seven
of the busiest streets in the District is safe in
comparison with either Thomas or Iowa circles but
is, nevertheless, exceedingly dangerous. 1t is re-
marksbie that more children not killed by pass
ing. automobiles A policeman on duty during the
rush hours might prevent many accidents and save
good deal OF time for pedestrians.
If there were street car tracks in Scott Circle
it would be impossible at certain hours. Fortu-
nately there none-and great element of safety
has been introduced in the platforms which
make almost complete circle in the center Of
the street. Walkers thus get breathing spell be-
tween two desperate dashes for life through mad
whrl of traffic But school children, in whom the
instinct for walking in traffic has not been de-
veloped accurately in adults, likely to
make errors in judgment which will result fatally.
1t is we'll enough to say that pedestrians them
selves are at fault IN great many accidents. But
what right has the District to demand that its citi-
take a course in walking in order to use the
streets. Shoe leather was here before automobiles.
Folks walked before they rode. There are many
thousands more pedestrians than there auto
riders. Why should there be any discriminatory
Walkers, we believe, entitled to every possible
safeguard which the District government give
then,-and at present they get very little protec-
ton indeed when crossing circles. If there is need
Of policeman anywhere it is at spots where
traffic is congested and where people on foot
must go.
Hundreds of school children must cross Scott
Circle during The morning and afternoon rush
hours. There probably is not another spot in the
District where the paths of many children
Are not these boys and girls entitled to the serv-
ices OF official protector? We do not see op-
portunity for any dspute-and glad to
that officials of the Mid-Cty Citizens AS
sociation do not anticipate any difficulty in having
policeman detailed for this post. man could
be spared from almost any beat in Washington for
few hours in order regulate traffic at this
point for the benefit OF the walking pubc-and
feel that police officials appreciate the neces-
sity, that it has been called to their attention.
Some action should be taken without further
delay. If the situation is attended to there is
apt to be needless loss OF life.

Curious There Should Have Been Doubt.

r a TTORNEY GENERAL DAUGHERTY'S de-
n cision against the sale of liquor ships
flying the American flag to have been ex-
pected. No other reasonable view could have been
taken OF situation that had become disgraceful
scandal-the United States government unwilling
unable to enforce a provision Of its own Con-
stitution.
The pernicious tendency to regard American
ships in neutral foreign as outside Amer
lean jurisdiction developed gradually as it suited
the convenience OF shipping interests. There never
was the slightest justification for it in law. Under
the decisions of Federal courts the uniform view
has been that such ships within the territory
of the United States and subject in every way, to
the laws OF the United States. No exception could
be made in respect to the Eighteenth amendment
1t would be justiiablc to transport slaves on
boats flying the Stars and Stripes-once the three
mile limit had been crossed The formal opinion
Of til. Attorney General should put an end to all
foolish qubbling this point.
O: course, vets will neglect no knotho,e in
the law through which they stick the
nozzle. Fortunately there few such holes
The Eighteenth amendment was exceptionally
we'll constructed bit OF legislation. We are glad
to that Mr.. Daugherty expresses no doubt as
to enforcbility of the law. He intimates that there
is real need OF the Volstead act-that the Con-
stutona amendment is self-enforcing without
need OF special proviSonS. Nullitylng amendments
to the latter would not have great deal Of effect
upon prohibition after all-so long as the rock OF
the United States Constitution remained unshat-
tered. This integrity of the fundamental law it is
pointed out in Mr.. Daugherty's communication to
the President, is maintained wherever the Ameri-
flag indicates the authority fixed or temporary,
OF the nation. The protection sought and realized
under the flag imposes obligation which cannot
be avoided. That is obedience to the. law of the
land.
1t has been shown that immediate, complete
enforcement OF the prohibition law is not possible
But that it can be made possible is beyond ques-
ton. social reform OF such magnitude cannot
be accomplished in moment, either by legislation
or by education. 1t is enough for the time that
in the effort to establish this great reform there
has been backward step The courts and law
officers OF the government have sustained with but
few exceptions every honest effort made toward
enforcement. The result has been the saloon has
been outlawed forever in the territory over which
the American flag aoats-no matter whether that
territory is in America, the Pacific Islands or on

Crusading With Bread.

INCLE SAM again starts crusading, armed
with basket of bread and not a gun.
Americans are asked to give
money to relieve the suffering peoples of the Near
East. left hungry, ragged and homeless in the trail
OF Turkish victory. There is little doubt the re-
sponse will be generous. The narrowing tales
wired by correspondents from the shores OF the
Dardanelles have moved the great heart of the
United States which never yet has rested easy
while there was suffering in any corner OF the
world
There some, OF course, who are cynical
about all this relief work. They tell us OF hungry
folks in New York and Chicago whose stomachs
are not filed by public charity. They tell US that
Uncle Sam might better look to the welfare of his
own before he pours bounty upon the tables of his
neighbors. But these people do not understand
they do not appreciate the extent to which the
popuace of the United States Of America has been
blessed.
There are hungry children in Chicago-but the
hungriest OF them has well-hlled stomach prob
ably, in comparison with the better-fed boys and
girls OF Smyrna. 1t is impossible to form any
adequate idea Of real human suffering until one
comes into actual personal contact with conditions
in the Near East
The sums of New York or Philadelphia are
like Paradise in comparison with the better resi-
dental sections OF city in Asia Minor The chill

We all in one little world together All
the millions OF human beings are nestimably in
consequential when considered in relation to- the
great universe which revo,ves about them And it
is very small amount Of our bounty which we
are asked to share with the unfortunate peoples
OF the world. Its loss will not be noticed from
single American table. Not a single American boy
will bc the colder this winter because some rough
clothes have been given to little Greek boy.
Crcle Sam doesn't get much direct benefit it
Is true The people OF the Near East do not think
very much more Of America because OF the charity
bestowed upon them. Perhaps on the whole they
understand her less-because. if they were pros
porous and others suffering they would be
far less apt to give relief without some definite
understanding OF future payment. But America
does get a tremendous indirect benefit-a satisfied

Better Homes Week.

Lew American cities will enter upon Better
i Homes Week with keener appreciation of
the importance OF the movement than Washington
The Capita OF the United States is fighting its
way out OF homeless Only few years
have elapsed since all building operations in the
District were suspended while almost sinultane-
ously, there came such an increase in population
that whatever housing accommodations existed
were taxed far beyond their capacity The result
was period OF few homes and many crowded
roOmng houses
This condition has largely been overcome
Feverish efforts have been made to make up for
the gap N building During the past two years
the city limits have been extended in every direc-
ton But the situation still is lar from ideal We
still have. for instance, hundreds OF alley homes
which have been pronounced almost unfit for
human habitatIon and which it is proposed to do
away with as complete normalcy has been
reached The people OF the Capital are in posi-
tion to understand the value of homes Building
in other cities was suspended during the war-but
few OF these became swarming centers of war ac-
tivity.
The demonstrations OF Better Homes Week
Will not center entirely around the construction of
houses. Interiors of almost equal Importance
and backwards and lawns cannot be overlooked
In the latter respect District citizens associations
have done some excellent work during the past
summer Neighborhood enterprise be enlisted
in the improvement OF local appearances
The value Of the Better Homes Week" OBJ
served nationally. will be incalculable. No ma
teral goal could be higher than home betterment-
nor can it be said that the benefits of such an ad-
vance are, by any means, wholly material. They
are largely OF that intangible quality for which it
is difficult to find appropriate designation Bet
ter homes mean greater happiness finer citizen
ship and more. solid social and political fabric
upon which to build the future
Every citizen of Washington can we'll afford to
take part in the demonstrations this week The
foremost home-making experts in the world are
located here and the people of the District will
have the advantage OF their intimate advice There
