Grant as a Soldier

/ Ulysses s. Grant was The most sue
ccssfui of the Union commanders in
tho Civil War, he will always rank
very high among American soldiers.
The man who captured Fort Donelsop
and fought the Vicksburg and Chat
tanooga campaigns had the true car
marks Of military genius.
But there ia something puzzlinr and
eniSmatic about Grants military
career. FIo was a graduate Of West
Po'nt--a trained officer, not self
educated one. He belonged TO our
military hierarchy. Yet no one could
have had less of the temperament and
esprit Of the professional soldier than
he had. lie was hardly soldier in tho
sense in which Sherman, Mcpherson
and Reynolds, on the Union side. or
Lee, Jackson aud Joseph l.. Johnston.
on Che Confederatc, were soldiers. He
had profound distaste for the nro.
fession Of AIMS. He was indifferent TO
military glory. He took no interest in
tho science of war (if you admit there
IS such thing; and Foch certainly
questions it) or even in the art Of
val He never read works or strategy
and knew little of tactics beyond what
he learned at West Point.
After he became famous = vourq
officer tried to engage him in
conversation on Jomini. Grant said
that he had never paid much
attention to that celebrated author
aty. After the war some citizens
OF Boston thought It would DC & good
idea to give Grant library. Samuel
Hooper, MIR. Louis A. Coolidge tells US
IN his ulysses S. Grant" undertook
to find out quietly what military books
he had so that duplicates might be
avoided, aud discovered to his astonish-
mont that Grant had no military books
Whatever. Imagine a French or Ger
man army commander who had never
studied the military classics
Grant had quality, however, which
carried him 10 the front in the Civil
War and kept him there. 1t was a
moral quality. Charles A. Dana. who
hsd an opportunity to observe Grant
at close range in the field, wrote IL !

Uses Of Charity

That was a noble gesture by those
thlrty-eight Baltimore Ku-kluv
klansmen who went to church in
their hoods and gowns and presented
the pastor, before the eyes Of Z

said to contain money for charity.

charity is d cloak that covers q

Not Forcing Mexico

That The Harding government ia
trying to dictate" to Mexico and to
force special rights" and to "intcr-
fere' has again been the theme of
those who would have US abandon
the Just interests Of Americans in
MEXICO. They endeavor to show that
there IS something sinister in tbe
tact that the oil companies again are
negotiating directly with the Mexi-
can government about their Mexican
properties and that the bankers of
America and Europe expect to con-
fer with the Mexican Secretary Of
the Treasury about Mexico's foreign
debt.
As matter of fact there has been
no change in the Harding policy
Unlike his predecessor, Mr.. Harding
has not interfered in Mexican poli-
tics, He has not endeavorcd to die
tate to the Mexican government. lie

Lying-ln Hospitals 8 Need

o the Editor of Tho Tribune.
Slr: AT time when peoplo ore ;,.
tent on their private affairs with mara
than the usual degree Of concern. il is
difficult, perhaps, to bring about -
logical appreciation Of their communal
reIatio" to charity. Yet it is iuet ~
such times that this relation assume.
ITS most important aspect.
A case in point is that Of the ryinr-
IN Hospital, the oldest and largest IN
stltution OF its kind in the CITY. This
hospital, which cares for a tentb Of al,
births IN Manhattan and which for tbs
Iast twenty years alone has broucbt
INTO the world more than 10000
babies, is critically in necl Of widor
public support.
Wien the Society of the Lyinr-Io
Hospital was organized, in 1889 H..
founders expected that it would grow
IN usefulness. 1t was hardly foroseen.
however, that the budget would rise
TO such a point. for example. that Il
mas nearly doubled within the Iaa4
decade. Bringing 5,126 babjes into tbc
world in 1921 cost the hospital s3o7 =
Sl8, To meet this there was an on
do~ment yielding less than $4,000. =
grant from the United Hospital Fund
Of $25,0l4 and aid from the citv of
little more than $4,173. OF the dona-
tions, totalling $261 ,230. which met tho
dehclt, more than nire-tcnths was sub.
serlbed by small group Of loyal and
generous friends
Business conditions have not affected
the business Of the Lying-ln Hospjtal
There are just as many babies as ever,
and So per cent Of these babies must
be cared for free
Friends wishing to share part Of
this burden are requested, during the
week beginning April "A to send their

The Fate of the Buffer States

Who're does the Nirth- -Tchitcherin
agreement leave the buffer states

ia? They were created to give their
Iong-submerscd peoples a chance to
1o Zee. Based on ethnic rather than
economic or geographic principles,
hey axe entities that stand in the
way Of the consummation Of d COM
ple-e Russo-German union.
Tor the new treaty to be effective
= IS essential that railway COM
launlca,ion between Russia and Ger
many be established. Without it
10 economic cooperation can be
really successful. Warsaw, Riga.
Wilma and Lemberg are as important
from The point of view of CONNER
clal strategy as Of military opera
tlons. The main lines from Ger
many and the Baltic into the heart
Il Russia pass through them. Does
this mean that Esthonia. Latvia.
L.thuania and Poland viii be drawn
or forced into the alliance?
The alternative is to reinforce the
strength Of the buffer states. The
forces Of geography and economies
are against Independence. Only
their spirit Of nationalism, sup
ported By the might of The Allies,
h2S given the smaller ones the
strength to survive 50 far. Between
Two hostile g~eat nations moved by
d common purpose, what can they

More Truth Than Poetry
By James J. Montague
Why Caesar Was So Great

Many C@sars led their legions,
Time and time and time again,
Through the wild and unknown
regions
then,
Many Cesars conquered nations
And. IN triumph, hurried home
To accept congratulations
Of the people back in Rome.
But the one VINO got the credit
That the town got on the map
Was-Qulte right, young man
you've said it,
Julius Cesar was the chap.
Scholars, students. poets, sages
Sound his praises far and wide
Half Of Roman history's pages
Tell Of how he lived and died.
Shakespeare, with the subtle
magic
OF his deft dramatic touch.
Made him great and wise and
tragic,
Though he wasn't such much.
ct hls star has kept on rising.
And the ages sound his name,
For ne learned that advertising
Is the surest route to fame.
When this Cesar wasn't fighting
Whether he had lost or won
nc was always busy writing
or the big things he had done.
lie was crafty, shrewd and
clever.

Borah at His Best

Senator Borah was at his best
when he tod the American Iccior
post Of PocatcIo that he would not
supper. d bonus bin, because, not be
lev.ng il u bonus. he would, by
favoriua it. simply be using The
people 70 buy somebody vote The
Idaho Senator puts above local
fence mendine' his obligation to
ne people as whole and to the
country. This IS an attitude which
any Senator mindful Of the Senate S
best traditions is bound to take.
The question for him to meet is
not Whether supporting a bonus bill
IS au easy means Of placating an or
Elrjzcd special interest, but whether,
considering the preseLt condition Of
tie Treasury, the objections to added
taxation and the prior claims Of the
disabled soldiers, it is defensible
from the point Of view of national
policy and beneficial to the people as
q whole.
The performances Of the House
leaders destroyed all confidence in
-neir sincerity. The House itself
laCGkad when some one suggested in
debate hat there was 10 Interior po-
i.tical motive behind the so.called
pawubroAer" measure. The same
suspicion attaches to the zeal shown
~ many Senators for the bonus
project, Are they backing the bill
on its merits or as an electioneering
anchor cast TO windward? Is a
bonus fair, practicable and economi~
callv justihabie at this time?
Mr.. Borah believes that it is not
These VINO have studied most care
fully it's probable effects on the bust
ness and financial rcadjustments
which are still in progress believe
that it IS not. Every group Of tax
pagers is reluctant to shoulder the
costs Of bonus- And the disabled
soldiers haven't been sufficiently
taken care Of yet.
The idaho Senator has elected TO
follow what he considers the right
eous and patriotic course. He is not

political vengeance. In this he does
anly what Senators Of tried moral
courage have generally done lie
would rather run the risk Of losinr
lis seat tnan bid for reelection by
participating in what he considers
raid on the Treasury.
Mr. Borah is often aeadstrong and
extreme in his opinions. But he
ciings te them and fights for them.
His strength with the country lies in
the fact that he jeaiously exalts his
Office and doesn't shrink from his
ideals and responsibilities as Sen
ato0. The bonus agitation would
not have made such headway if there /
were more men in Congress- like him.
