Undiscowaged

Governor Cox seems to want to
run again for the Presidency. At
the Jefferson Day dinner in this
city he had the pleasure of listening
to song which intimated that he
would be making the grand tour
from coast to coast in 1924. As
candidate for the Democratic
nomination Mr.. Cox would probably
get a unanimous vote in a Repuhli-
can National Convention. He has
qualities which every party loves to
see exempllfied in an opposition
nominee.
Mr.. Cox evidently would enter the
race again with unabated enthu-
sasm. The punishment he took
in 1920 has left no visible impres-
sion on him. He seems to be will
ing to try anything not once but
twice 1t is clear from his speeches
that he thinks the verdict Of two
years ago was due to an unfortu-
nate error in Identification. He as
sumes that the voters thought that
they were voting against somebody
else Git is useless to mention names)
and that ideas rejected in 1920,
when he was presenting them by
proxy, as it were, would be accepted
without denur were they pre-
sented associated with no PERSONAL
ity save his own.
It is pleasing theory for a de-
feated candidate to hug to his
bosom. 1t ignores the probability
that the country will be Interested
in other issues in 1924, having dis
posed Of the 1920 issue in 1920.
But certainly the Republican politi-
clans will wish Mr.. Cox we'll.
New-York tribune., 1922-04-12

there is no prospect that the good
points of this change are likely to be
readily adaptable In the bigger col
leges. Under the present system in
stitutions such as Harvard and Yale
and Princeton, with many wealthy
graduates keenly Interested in the
athletic contests, enjoy to peculiar
extent the advantages Of being able
to hire the best possible instructors
and concentrate on the development
of crack teams.
The substitution Of a professor Of
football for the coach in such In
stitutions does not now seem practi-
cable. The example, however, of the
smaller colleges will at least act as
deterrent against extending the
evils Of the present system, and will
make it easier, if somewhat SINH
lar plan is eventually thought worth
considering, to institute more dras-
tic reforms.

Lloyd Georges Hard Hour

Lloyd George may well rejoice be-
cause the fairies at his birth en-
dowed him with good nature and
sense Of humor; for seldom was
temper more tried than his at the
opening day at Genoa.
AS grand panjandrum Of the gath
ering Mr.. George was responsible
for the presence of Tchitcherin. Why
he procured the invitation for him
Mr.. George never has had time to ex-
plain. But the guest was his, and to
have him carry on as he did was CAL
culated to subdue the Georgian smile
and to make it hard to speak viva
ciously.
The Bolshevist envoy, Russian
aristocrat who would be remembered
as Philip Egalite. spoke for half
an hour. During this brief period
death came to something like 10000
Russians, all direct victims Of the
system which he has helped to estab-
lish. Mr.. George realized this as he
politely replied-saw countless
horde Of starved men, women and
children standing behind the orator.
Sympathy may properly 60 out to
Mr.. George as he avoided the men
ton Of appalling conditions to his
protege-conditions which must be
remedied by removal of their cause
before talk of Russia's reconstruc-
ton can be anything except farce.
Tchitcherin treacherously helped
to open the Russian front to the Ger
mans, thereby bringing death to
million or more Frenchmen, Italians,
Britons and Americans. In high hat
and frock coat he rolled to the con-
ference in a shiny motor car. His
funds came from stealings -- rob-
berries - perhaps from jewels his
agents chopped from ears and
fingers. An accomplice in the cellar
murder of the Gar and his helpless
family, he has taken pleasure in the
slaughters of the Red Terror. One
of the masters of Russia's army of
100000, the largest in the world,
which not long ago was ravaging
Poland, he talked Of disarmament.
Does Mr.. George so like hypocrisy
that he delighted in Tchitcherin? Is
he so stupid as not to understand the
purpose of his speech? Is he so cal
lous as not to realize what is implied
when such as Tchitcherin are re-
ceived as equals?

Hard to Hide

Said the proprietor of a northern
California summer resort hotel as he
gazed upon the eruption of Mount
Lassen:
We've got to keep this quiet or
business will be hurt around here"
Mr.. Enright apparently holds the
same view with regard to the crime
situation. Lately the police have
sought to conceal two particularly
fragrant robberies. One was the theft
by burglars Of $4,000 worth of sill
verware from Park Avenue apart
ment- The other was the burglary
Of a home in East Seventieth Street.
The Police Commissioner should
have discovered by this time that a
crime wave is hard to hide.
Assistance will be Forthcoming
from every quarter if Mr.. Enright
will take the public into his conf
dence. He is not a bit more anxious to
do his duty than is the public to have
him do it. Citizens will fortify their
homes and wear bulletproof cloth

Professors of Athletics

In their campaign against profess
sional coaches the presidents of
eleven New England colleges have
agreed that, beginning with the sea-
son Of 1923, instruction in athletics
will be taken from the hands of ath-
letic associations supported in the
main by alumni and made a regular
part Of the college administration.
with coaches members Of the fac
ulties.
This is revolutionary move. That
its purpose is admirable seems nm
questioned. The system of seasonal
coaches not only has tended to put q
premium upon a single small sue
oessful team, but also has placed an
advantage on the side of the college
with large financial backing. which
has the opportunity of obtaining
more skilled instructors than it's less
wealthy rivals. Thus to eliminate
the money element is at the same
time to remove some of the dangers
OF encroaching professionalism and
to exclude unwelcome foreign in
fluences.
Less felicitous, however, NAV be
the working out Of the plan to make
coaches members of the faculty. It
IS dlnicult to see how a professor Of
baseball or a professor of football
Will md occupation in his off sea-
sons, and just what role he will plav
IN the academic world. The theory
is excellent, but what will be the re-
suit of its application?
1t IS perhaps unfortunate that

to get rid Of the unwelcome visitors
within the city's gates.
They insist, however, on knowing
the truth. The Commissioner cannot
try to conceal one or two robheries
without being suspected Of trying to
conceal dozens of them. Conceal
ment does no good, anyway. The vic
Tins are perfectly we'll aware that
they have been robbed. The robbers
are equally we'll aware what profess
sion they pursue.
Uneasy about the intimation that he
may be removed, Mr.. Enright has at
last made partial confession of his
inability to meet the situation. Let
him make his confession complete
and give the public all the facts, and
they will back him up in his belated
efforts to make the city safe.

At the Old Game

The Wirth governments refusal
to meet the requirements Of the Rep
aration COMMISSIONS last note is
another expression of Germany's pol
icy Of evasion.
By the Versailles Treaty she first
promised to pay the sum the Repara-
tion Commission might find was
needed to repair the damages she had
done. She promised again last May
to pay the amount which the COM
mission did fix, thereby preventing
an Allied occupation Of the Ruhr
district. She has not lived up to her
agreements. Yet the Wirth min
istry has the impudence to tell the
commission that it will not only not
meet its scheduled payments but will
not consent to any form of super
vision incompatible with Germanys
financial independence"
Germany Is not now financially in
dependent, and cannot be financially
independent until she makes good
her reparation obligations. She has
signed away financial self control.
Her pretensions to the contrary are
absurd. The Reparation Commits
sion, having had so many evidences
Of German malingering, would not
be doing its duty if it did not insist
on supervision of the German fiscal
policy.
Chancellor Wirth says that his
government cannot levy new taxes
amounting to 100000 marks.
With the mark at one-seventy-second
of its former value, this would mean
only S33,0o0,0O0 gold marks. or about
$21o,000,000. The German people
now pay per capita tax of $40,
while in Great Britain, France and
the United States the per capita tax
runs from $50 to $50. Why can
German taxes not be Appropriated
to British, French and American
taxes?
Germany can pay If she wants to
and will pay when she knows she has
to. And the Allies, If they really want
to be paid, have ample means to en-
force payment. An occupation of
the Ruhr, for instance, would carry
more argumentative force than any,
thing yet advanced in the Rep
aration Commissions correspondence
with the Wirth ministry.

Twelve Days Inaction

The close Of the second week of
the coal strike shows that the pro-
duction in the anthracite fields is
cut to nil and in the bituminous
fields that it varies from 35 to SO
per cent of normal. According to
President Lewis, nearly SO per cent
Of the non-union workers have
joined the strikers, making a total
of about 640,000 men now out.
Except for rumors that some steel
mills are beginning to feel the
shortage of coal, and more espe-
cially Of coke, there is as yet no In
dication that the strike is interfer-
ing with business. Reports of i'm
proved conditions continue to come
in from various parts of the coun-
try and the stock market has shown
greater strength and optimistic ac-
tlvity than at any time in the last
eighteen months.
Nowhere does there seem to be
realization that each day brings
nearer serious coal shortage and
that unless settlement is reached it
is question of only six to ten weeks
before it will be necessary to cur
tail the use of coal and possibly
even to commence shutting down
various industries. When the strike
started on April l there was an esti-
mated surplus Of scarcely two
months on hand. With production,
therefore, at only one-third to one
half normal and showing signs OF
decreasing rather than increasing
as time goes on, the beginning of
the famine is not far off.
A direct settlement between the
operators and miners still seems re-
mote. The anthracite people, it is
true, have been in conference since
before the strike, but they have not
approached an agreement. The
bituminous operators have gone so
far as to resist all inducements to
meet the miners in general confer
ence and have rejected the solicita-
tions of the Administration and Of
Congress, alleging their fear that
II they confer they subject them
selves to prosecution for violation of
the Sherman antitrust law. To
the Attorney Generals statement
that the Administration which urged
them to confer would hardly prose-
cute them for complying with this
request they reply that our govern

will not be broken until the govern
