More Truth Than Poetry
BY James J. Montague
Pope Was Right

We hold with Alexander Pope.
Who frequently expressed
The thought that man has little
hope
Of being wholly blessed,
When we believe at last that all
Oar wishes are fulfilled.
MlSchance is certain TO befall
And 10. the beans are spilled.
For instance, we have vearned to
own
And wear upon our tie
a rare and radiant precious stone
To catch the public's eye.
We meant to sport 1t on Broad
way,
And fondly pictured how
The girls would gaze at it and
say
"-Ain't that the cats meow"
But years Of poverty ensued
Wmle all our earnings went
TO meet the cost of clothes and
And pay the monthly rent.
Our spirits fell with each ad-
vance.
Despair sat on our brow.
Alas. there seemed but little
chance
To buy the bauble now,
Then lol the cost Of living fell,
A tidy sum we saved,
AND hastened cityward pell-mell
10 get the stone we craved,
=.
We still are wearing sorrows
crown
And Worn1wood fills our cup,
ME living costs were going
down
The cost Of stones went up,

Mr. Lansing on Havti

Had the contents of Mr.. Lansing S
letter to Senator Mccormick ex-
planning the reasons for Mr.. viii
sons intervention in Hayti been
made public at the time the action
took place much misunderstanding
would have been avoided and some
OF the attacks upon the Wilson ADJ
mlmstration for high handed meth
DDS Of Waging unofficial wars might
have been spared.
Il was generally reported in 1918.
1914 and 1915 that the German GOV
eminent through the HAMBURG
American Line and other private
agencies was making serious efforts
to obtain coahng station in Havti,
and as early as May, 1914, the Ger
man government spoke openly Of
selzing the customs in that country
IN order to insure the payment Of
moneys due to German subjects.
From MIR. Lansing's statement il
now appears that German troops
armed with machine guns actually
landed at Port-au-Prince on the eve
of the declaration of war between
Germany and Russia, but we're with
drawn at once. During the succeed
ing months so great was the dis
order in Hayti that the government
was apprehensive of intervention bv
foreign power and felt bound TO
interfere in order 20 prevent such
calamity Such action was in ac-
cordance with the policy which grew
out OF the Monroe Doctrine to the
effect that the American government
could not recognize the right of
European nations to seize the Gus
toms machinery Of an American re
pubic IN order to insure payment
Of debts to their nationals.
Mr.. Lansing adds that it was the
established belief Of American Off
clals and private citizens who had
been in Hayti that the majority of
the revolutions and disturbances on
the island had been financed in the
north Of Hayti by German mer-
chants.
Mr.. Lansing sums it up by saying
that one of the two d0minatinp ideas
of The Wilson policy was "a desire
to foreStall any attempt by for
Ggn power to obtain foothold on
the territory of an American nation,
which, If a seizure of the customs
control by such a power had oc-
Cured, or If a grant Of a coa!ing
station or naval base had been OBJ
tanned, most certainly would have
been a menace TO the peace Of the
Western Hemisphere and in fragrant
defiance Of the Monroe Doctrine"
So much for the broader aspects
OF Intervention. The actual occasion
that prompted the landing of the
was the condition of an
archy that prevailed in Port-au-
Prince following the slaughter of
the President and other Haytian
officials by the revolutionists.

and removing his coat proceeded to
win the argument in the most ef-
fective fashion.
All of which recalls jim Reeds
boatcd sympathy with Woodrow
Wilson. In his effort to retain the
support in his race for the Missouri
Senatorship of the Democrats who
still believe in Wilson Mr. Reed
says that he has the most profound
sympathy with very sick man.
Then he continues to pick at the
Harding Administrations
Not long ago when Reed made
another effort to board the Wilson
band wagon the eX-Prcsident took
occasion to repudiate him rather
saVagely 1t is possible that Afr.
Wilson'S illness may be his own pro
lection from Mr.. Reed, but we doubt
if it will be Mr.. Reeds protection

bOORS By Percy Hammond


Young Mr.. Cummings, Of Cambridge,
Mass, having been mistreated By the
French while in their ambulance serv-
ice, writes Of his III adventures in
book called "The Enormous Room"
A peculiarly Of this record is that
despite the intimacy Of its manner and
contents it leaves one little dubious
as to the character Of It's author
Sometimes you think Mr. Cummings is
good sport, quizzically accepting his
bad luck as merely a personal atom
among wars undistinguished horrors.
Again You may suspect ungraciously
that he is q bit Of a chrome eccentric,
looking for trouble rather than evad-
ing it, and that he takes an abnormal
pleasure in the outrages of which he
was the grinning victim. Yet again
you may believe him to be an expert
sorehead, who parades his grievances
with subtle skill, md that in each of
his snaky phrases there turks
venomous sneer At amy rate Mr..
Cummings views with no haggard eye
the dungeons that lie rotted in, and the
uCterance of his outrages and insults
IS gay # sardonic song, not
squawk. SO, in case you admire the
merry martyrs who add cap and bells
to their shirts of fire you will like Nh.

The Soil of Crokeris,n

In the comment ON the passing Of
Croker there is much quotation Of
Bryce, particularly Of his statements
that municipal government is the one
conspicuous failure Of American in
stitutions and that "no city of more
than three hundred thousand inhab-
itants can govern itself we'll"
This leads William II. Allen, of
the Institute for Public Service, in
one of his pastoraIs to the press to
ask whether any editor in New York
really believes that the state or the
nation in the last twenty years has
been better governed than the city.
AS good government. both az re
spects loftincss Of ideal and eff
cheney in administration, as any ono
has a right to expect prevailed in
the city under the Mitchell admin
istration. As the result Of two dec
AIDES Of practically unbroken gains
we had attained a high level that al
most refuted Mr.. Bryce. During the
same period the government neither
at Albany nor Washington was bet
ter. So much in the way Of answer
But let us look further.
Democracy's advance is dependent
ON the presence and growth Of two
factors-first, an increase in midi
vidual Intelligence, and, second. a
clearer perception Of the good to all
Of mutual aid. Personal education
and citizenship-these are the team
which pulls the democratic cart up
hill. The off horse now pulls fairly
well, but the nigh one still tends to
go lame.
After conQuering the family and
then the village and the small city or
tribe, democracy became snagged for
two thousand years on fear of the
stranger--in the human heart the
most llinty hardness. The drills of
reason blunted themselves against it.
