QUITTING TIME AT CANNES

MIR. LLOYD GEORGE is said to be in
INl dulging the hope that the present con
ference in Cannes, attended by the princi-
ual Premier Of Europe and Ambassador
Harvey. will be the last meeting Of the
Supreme Council. His wish is one likely
TO be echoed by the mass of liberal opinion
throughout the globe
The Supreme Council is an extra legal
body, an outgrowth Of the Supreme War
Council. which was the product of an un-
Dnrallelpd emergency. Lacking formal or
authoritative sanction, the lNter organiza-
tion of statesmen has been enabled to make
It's own rules, to change them at will and
in short to arrogate TO itself powers at once
sweeping and i'll defined.
Super- government Of this kind has
served. with all it's faults, to tide civiliza-
tion over some ticklish places, But the
equiyocal nature of the Council savors of
the old covert diplomacy and clashes yio-
Ientiy with the legitimate province of the

A NEW CAESAR

IMAGlNATION IS a bit staggered and the
L faculties of admiration are also stirred
by n new type Of Nbso!utism that has been
conceived in New York.
Unrivaled by Khan, Mogul Negus. Sultan,
GaekwRr, Shah, King or Emperor is the
dictatorial power Of the traffic potentate,
who, augustly seated in the city's center,
will press button regulating stimuli
taneously all vchcuar traffic on the lead
ing arteries of Manhattan. Red, green and
yellow lights, each bearing an explicit mes
sage, will b" operated by a single switch
in Times Square.
The hackers Of this majestic system say
that automobile drivers will no longer be
started at one corner and halted at the
next, but that the traffic will be permitted to
flow uninterruptedly for several blocks.
Philadelphians are still far from attaining
the grandeur Of this project, but It is at
least permissible TO respect the magnitude
Of the idea its bold recognition OF conditions
that have grown almost intolerable in many
American cities and to hope that no ANA
teur will ever finger the keys regulating the
vast tides Of metropolitan transportation.

oLYMPlAN QUARRELS

vIIHE international Olympic Committee, of
which Baron de Coubertin Is head. has
decided that Paris shall have the athletic
congress Of 1924 and Amsterdam the one
of 1929.
Los Angeles, which wanted the carnival
for the date two years hence and entered
n formal application for that favor, is re-
ported deeply nggreved. The American
Olympic Committee is also nettled by both
the advance programs and certain features
of the last meet in Antwerp in 1920.
There are possibilities of lively contro-
versy in the detailed summary Of wrongs
compiled by the American body. Baron
do Coubertin retalates that haste in making
the decisions upon the next Olympic sites
was necessitated by the italian delegates,
who were unable TO prolong their stay at
Lausanne last summer, where the plans
were laid,
Philadclphians are perhaps not deeply
concerned in the fine points of the dispute,
They are, however, entitled to wonder what
has become Of the idea that an Olympic
festival shall adorn the worlds fair here in
1926.
Los Angeles at least has a plausible
Grievance. That community has been de-
MED something for which very vigorous
official effort was made.

HALL AND MORAL" CLAIMS

FTyHE action of the majority of Council in
4 ousting minority members from the
Craftsmanship of committees and putting
majority members in command need sur
prise no one. Indeed, 1t is surprising that
il has not been done earlier.
But why did not the majority put a law
yer at the head of the Law Committee in
stead of Councilman Hall? There nre law
yers in the majority.
Was IL because the Law Committee is
the committee which makes recommendations
for the disposal of moral claims, brought
mostly by contractors, against the city !
These moral" claims, as every one knows,
are claims put in by contractors for COM
pensation beyond the terms of the contract
to which they insist they have moral
although not a legal right.
Mr.. Hall has favored the payment OF
several such claims which have been held
up during Councilman Develin's chairman
ship.
Can it be that there is to be recrudcs-
cence of these moral claims MS we'll as
others now that Mr.. Hall has been put in
Q position to assist the claimants in getting
that for which they ask?

There would be strategic as well as prac-

tion, especially as it is understood that
large part Of the money is to be spent on
itructures which will become a part Of the
permanent assets of the city.

Council Of the League Of Nations as estab-
lished by the Covenant.
1t is tho shadow Of the Supreme Council
which has been cast overseas upon the re-
cent proceedings Of the Washington Con-
ference. The effect has not been whole
some. France and Great Britain alike are
under suspicion Of having played their cards
in the District of Columbia with particu-
lar reference to possibilities Of the game on
the Riviera.
OF vital Importance today Is the need for
an explicit understanding, unclouded by
back thoughts Of secondary intentions, be-
tween NJ. BRAND and Mr.. Lloyd George.
II their two nations can evolve joint
policy Of harmony, the health Of civilization
will be vastly improved. II they are in
clined to take divergent ways, It Is prefer
able for that fact to be frankly known than
for pretense to maintain Its baleful sway.
The Supreme Council is an anachronism.
The Washington conclavc has set new
standard for graphing In the open with
yexed questions Its failures and sue
cesses-the latter in marked predominance-
are matters of public knowledge.
1t is probable that European Govern
ments will be discussing the aftermath of
the war for many years to come. The
League of Nations has provided suitable
machinery and the Arms Conference has
set another model worthy of imitation.

progress in his program for the abolition OF
a peregrinating body, lacking formal war
rant and assuming dictatorial powers.

ALTER ON THE LYNCH BILL

A TTORNEY GENERAL ALTER, in re-
Al plying to a request from Washington
for information regarding the anti-lynch
laws In this State, raises an interesting
point concerning the Anti Lynching Bill
now pending in Congress.
Mr.. Alter says that. while there are no
special statutes against lynChing in Penn
sylvnnia. the general statutes are broad
enough TO cover all contingencies. He says
further that they are as effective in pre-
venting the crimes against which they nre
aimed as the Federal criminal statutes are
In preventing the crimes for which they
provide penalties. He concludes with the
remark that 1.-THE persistent efforts to mag
nifty and extend Federal jurisdiction con-
stitute u much greater menace to the coun-
try than even the crime of lynching."
A Federal law Furnishing murder in the
States, or burglary, or arson would be ex =
actly as justifiable as one against lynchng.
There are Federal laws against the ofenses,
but they run only in the territory over
which the Federal courts have jurisdiction.
II Congress can pass a valid Anti Lynch
ing Law and enforce it within the States it
can pass laws against oil other forms Of
crime now punishable by State laws. and
the State Legislatures would have little left
Of their functions, for once the barrier is
broken down between the legislative juris-
diction Of Congress and that of the State
Legislatures Congress becomes potentially
the only legislative body in the Nation.
The Importance Of Furnishing lynchers does
not properly enter into the discussion at all.
The real point at issue is the preservation OF
the police powers Of the States and the
regulation of those powers by State au-
