NAVAL STATION WHARF TO

Proper Facilities and Lower Fort
Charges to Be Offered
ImpOrtant Industry.

The ACQUISITION of the 25OO-foot
dock of the Algiers Naval Station as
a loading and receiving center and
the reduction by at least half or the
port charges on the commodity are
the plans by which New Orleans Will
seek to come into its own as the chief
lumber exporting point on the Gulf.
Mobile, Gulfport and Beaumont,
where the port charges are nominal,
now far outstrip New Orleans in this
important trade, and the only rea-
sons. according to a report made by
T. ID. Sadler, traffic manager of the
Dock Board. to the advisory commit
tee on docks Wednesday night, are
that the charge here is $1.5O per lOO
feet and no facilities have ever been
provided to encourage the movement
of lumber.
The government, General Manager
Walsh said he understands, is tc
close the Algiers station entirely and
has no further use for the wharf. L
it can be obtained by the Dock BOARD
it will serve admirably for the lum
Der industry, and will so coordinate
and systematic handling that TIT
charges could be reduced fifty pc
cent.
The lumber men, it was stated
favor New Orleans because the larg
number of ships calling here affor'
opportunities for part cargo shiI
ments and all would make this thei
main exporting point, if only rea
sonable port charge is made and sui
able wharf space is provided.

Anships viii Succeed

The destruction Of the army blimp
C-2 by fire at San Antonio, Tex, after
she had crossed the continent and had
reached the halfway station on the re-
turn trip must not be considered as
proof that airships may not be sue
cessfully developed and have very i'm
portant uses in peace and war. The
ship had made remarkable record
when an unfortunate accident caused
her destruction. It is important to
remember that disaster or failure has
often marked the initial designs and
tests Of other great inventions. But
perseverance has been rewarded by
ultimate triumph in many cases.
The hrst built-up gun, named the
"peacemaker," was tested on board the
U. s. s. Princeton, ship designed by
Ericsson in 1914. The trials took place
in the Potomac River, near Washing
ton, in the presence Of a distinguished
company, specially invited to witness
the advent Of powerful weapon that
would protect the nation from all
enemies. At the fourth round the gun
exploded and killed the Secretary of
State, the Secretary Of the Navy and
five other spectators. But we cid not
stop building big guns because Of this
disaster.

A United Front Again

The apparent unanimity Of Great
Britain and France toward sending
q commission to Berlin for the pur-
pose of devising measures to avert a
complete financial collapse in Ger
many is hopeful sign. Great Brit
sins concession to the French point
of view in the matter OF intervening
in Germany's internal affairs is
shift from the position maintained
by the Lloyd George government,
and is almost certain to be produc-
tive of concessions on the part Of the
French. Thus there is once more the
chance that the two nations will
present united front to Germany.
Thst such cooperation is essen
tial has long been obvious. I'm
fortunately, however, Lloyd Georges
policy was not calculated to facili-
tate common action, and the French
became more and more reluctant to
make any concessions to him. Mat
tass had reached point where he
had but to suggest anything and at
fhce the French were suspicious Of
f. Only constructive help for Ger
saany could have played the German
game better, for in peace as we'll as
in war Germany stood to gain by
division among the Allies.
The interests of France and Great
Britain have, Of course, been widely
apart. But this has not made any
the less necessary an understanding
about Germany. Such an under
standing is at the root Of European
reconstruction. 1t involves mutual
concessions which seem nearer re-
alization to-day than at any time
during the last three years.

TO the Editor of The Tribune

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Man, in an effort to make life
better for his brother, has from time
to time planned that days or weeks
be devoted to worthy purposes-fre
prevention, safety first, Red Cross
and Salvation Army drives and
numerous other good works. Is this
not the time, then, to think of the one
thing for which the world is hunger
Ing, thirsting, perishing? The one
thing which would solve all problems
and bring happiness and prosperity to
all is love.
Would it not be well worth while to
select one day--a busy week dayton
which man could wholeheartedly prove
that he loves his brother? On that
day there would be no numbering or
robbing, no lying or deceiving, no i'm.
purity OF action or speech, no SELFISH
ness or greed. Every action that day
would be an expression of Kindness.
Is it too much to ask that we Law
aside for one day all hatred and
revenge and jealousy and greed and
lust and every sort of unkindness
and let every action be governed By
good-by love?

'sOur Arctic College"

Alaska used to be called "Our
Arctic Province" so much that it will
be logical to call the college which
has just been opened at Juneau "Our
Arctic College" Only while the for
mer appellation was employed in de-
rision and contempt-of course,
egregiously undeserved-the latter
is to be used by way of crowning
vindication of the far-sighted wis
dom of Stewards folly"
Highly significant, too, is the spe-
cial character of the institution. It
is known as the Alaska Agricultural
College and School of Mines. The
latter part of the name is not so
surprising. for mining is an industry
which may be conducted in really
Arctic regions. But college Of
agriculture in Alaska most trium-
phantly gives the lie to the old con-
Iceptions of that country by indicat-
ing that the tilling Of the soil, to-
gether with forestry, is the chief oc-
cupation of "Our Arctic Province. !"
1t will not do, Of course, to claim.
as some are thcughtlessly doing, that
tins is the northernmost institution
OF collegiate rank in the world. or
even in the Western Hemisphere.
though it is by far the northern
most in North America. The Uni

degrees further north, while in the

are more than degree further
north than Juneau. And before

In it's bus investigation the

first, that brother of the Mayors

ance on city buses; second, that a
Tammany Commissioner Of Public
Works got fat rental for a garage
in which busses were kept; third,
that another Tammany man made a
profit of 5000 on bus which he sold
to an operator for $2,100, the driver
testifying that he got permit to
operate the bus Immediately after
the 5000 was paid.
All these revelations at least sug-

An Army With Taxicabs
The taxicab army that saved Par.

The taxicab army that saved Paris
is one Of the few legends of the war
that time has not demolished. In that
long, swaying line that ran from
Terdun past Fere- Champenoise and
the marshes Of Saint Gond almost to
the gates of Paris--Gernan cavalry
were in the town of Claye for few
hours, but fifteen miles away---it
was the army of Gallieni, on the ex-
treme right flank of Won Kluck, that
began the counter attack which dis
located the German line and gave
Foch his chance to break through.
Thus these old cochers Of the boule-
wards who drove an army of thou
sands to the battle-ground saved, if
you will, not only Paris but much
besides, as most Americans are glad
to remember.
1t is a typicaliy French sense of
the fitness of things that is to place
one of these battered vehicles on ex-
hibition in the Invalides, where are
Frances great military relics of the
centuries. There it's two cylinders
will come to rest amid the armor of
kings and the banners Of Napoleon.
Upon tablet will read the words of
one Of these chauffeurs spoken to
Gallieni on that memorable Septem-
Der 7, 1914: Zone must do as ones
comrades do; one must go where it
is necessary" After all, neither Ro-
land, nor Bayard, nor Henry of Ma
varre, nor Guynemer did more.
