Constructive economy" the Vice
President said, has been the first
thought and the chief effort OF the
present administration. The suggestion
fnaght be accepted as by way Of q
word to the wise. BY Congress in tram
ing the appropriation bills. The ad-
ministration is proposing and practic.
ing constructive economy which will,
however, be without avail IL Congress
adopts q policy OF destructive economy.
The executive and legislative branches
of the government are under control
Of the same political party. and 1t
should seem to be practicable to agree
upon a policy harmoniously construc.
tive throughout.
The Vice Presidents review Of the
economies practiced and effected shows
that the executive and administrative
officers are sincerely intent upon real
economy and not disposed to extrava-
gance OF any kind. His reference to
tuC- ICo0lI VI luc VdSlbn& COulCTs
ence on limitation Of armament might
also be commended to the thoughtful
consideration Of the appropriation
makers. 1T does not naean." he said,
"that military establishments are to
be no longer required. An agreement
to maintain a parity between navies is
not an agreement to abolish navies."
The Congress has the undoubted
authority to fix and limit the appro-
priations. but the executive and ad.
ministrative branches are charged
with the responsibility OF recommend
ing them and later of applying them
1t would not seem to be good business
for Congress to utterly disregard the
protests Of, the executive branch when
it declares that 4 proposed policy is
destructive.

Lenin Ill.

No more important news has come
out OF Europe recently than the word
In a roundabout way from Moscow to
the effect that Nikolai Lenin, the Rus.
sian premier, Is so seriously Ill that
his death Is regarded as a possibility
OF the near future. There is no man
living today, perhaps. whose death
would involve the likelihood Of more
far-reachins nsconsequences The chances
are that without Lenin at its head the
soviet government would not long en-.
dure in its present form. ana the prob
abilities are strong that II could not
endure at all. So far a. the outside
world knows, there il no other man
in Russia with either the strength or
the ability to hold together the sle-
ments which make up the soviet gov.
ernment, and once Lenin's ruthless
hand was removed almost anything
might happen.
Lenin enjoys no popularity with the
rest Of the world, whatever may b the
liking for him In Russia, but It weuld
- scottish to deny that he - one OF
the remarkable men Of the age. Un.

but the fact remains that he has ruled:
that starting from nothing he has
gathered into his hands more sactual
power than IL wtelded today by the
head Of almost any other state. The
man who has done that Is not a
mediocre man. e>
What effect the'.death OF Lenin
might have on the coming Genoa con-
ference Is Z prohlem calculated to give
anxious hours to European statesmen.
The latest information In that Lloyd
Georges program for Genoa contem.
plates full recognition of the soviet
government and ~ working arrange.
ment with France and Germany for
exploiting Russian resources. Even
with assurance that Lenin would con-
tinue at the helm. contract of that
kind would be little better than gam.
Bile. With Lenin gone. to enter into
engagements with Russia would be
like bargaining with a whirlwind. The
Genoa conference certainly Is having
hard shedding. Ever since the call was
issued just one thing after another
has happened to give 1t a black eye.

Admiral Sims.

At social function TN Philadelphia,
where speeches were in order. Admiral
Sims was called upon, and responded
Naturally. he spoke Of the Navy. and
as naturally declared against the pro.
posed slashing of supplies by Con.
gress for the support Of that arm OF
the national defense.
The blunt old sailor confessed to "a
lack Of reputation for discretion" in
his public addresses. But he does not
lack for knowledge of the Navy and
it's uses, or Of what Is necessary to
keep the Navy At for the country's
purposes. In fact. his education and
experience Qualify him richly to ad-
wise on those questions. He knows
them. from the water up. so to say.
But the men on Capitol Hill,
considering those questions sole
ly from the viewpoint of economy at 4
time OF money pinch. disregard such
advice, and reduce the supplies to a
figure which causes surprise and pro-
test in informed quarters.
Is this even economy? Does it pay
to put either the Navy or the Army
on short supplies? Does not our recent
experience in war matters warn that
it does not pay; that, indeed. it is the
most expensive policy possible of
adoption?

Tho republicans seem to be pretty
solid in Hawaii. In an election Just
held for delegate in Congress here
they elected their candidate by q vote
Of over two to one.
Well, they deserve their popularity
It was under = republican administers
ton that the islands were brought un'
der American control. It was under q
republican administration that an ef
fort to restore the old rotten monarchy
was, defeated. The Tag was kept al
the masthead, and prosperity began.
American sovereignty has proved q
great blessing to the archipelago. TN.
der it everything has gone forward
Education, internal improvements
agriculture, and business OF all kinds
have wrought wonders in the situa
ton. and given the people q sense Of
perfect security.
AS a result, the people have ex
pressed their satisfaction with the new
order by giving it cordial support. Nc
schemes. disguised under one name or
another. have been matched by native
politicians to undermine American in
fiuence and set up government oi
their own. All activities have refiect
ed a gratitude for benefits received
and desire for their continuance.
American control In Porto Rico and
in the Philippines has shown q like
regard for the welfare and advance.
ment Of the people. and in both coun'
tries excellent results have been
achieved. And there, as in Hawaii
such results will continue as long az
American control continues. The
American record, indeed, for admin.
istering the affairs Of appurtenant ter.
rttory Is unusual for success in the

The Automobile Show.

We have the auto show with US.
Washington always has some kind Of
show on hand. whether Congress is
in session or not We are soon to have
the annual horse show. but the auto
mobile show is here. and will stay with
US one week, counting from last Sat
urday night. Just as Washington has
become famous for its horse shows,
Hover shows. art exhibits, pageants,
municipal fireworks and sunny after
noon parades on shopping streets, so.
too. is the old town becoming famous
for its automobile shows.
The reporters tell us that in the
current show are more than fifty
"makes" of machines. and they seem
not to have been able to count the
number of styles and shapes on view.
There are roadsters, sedans, touring
cars, limousines and speedsters, and
every other type of car except slow
ster. 1t is an interesting show to
everybody who likes automobiles, and
that makes a good crowd, and to
everybody who wants to own a car.
which makes d unanimous crowd CO.
equal with the population of the city.
Washington Is not becoming an
automobile center in the same sense
as Detroit. but it has become quite a
place for cars. Almost everybody who
can afford a car, and a good many OF
the others, have each at least one, and
most Of them are contemplating now or
hereafter the purchase of something
SINNER, faster and more elegant. The
streets Of the town are full of auto
mobiles, and they seem to be especial.
ly numerous at crossings. Garages
have become so numerous that it would
be almost as easy to find q house
without a coal bin or refrigerator as one
without a garage. A vast number of
fat-dwellers have a garage somewhere
within four to thirty squares Of where
they live, and it is said that some of
the new fats may have in addition to
the present kitchenette. bathroomette,
parlorette and boudoirette nice little

This is the day of the auto, and this

Shifters.

Shifterism is not to get a foothold
among the school population of the
District Of Columbia. The school au.
thorities here have said it. What is
also encouraging is that they have
said that Shifterism has not made
thus far. much progress in the public
schools Of Washington. Few persons

The Session.

Impatience is showing on Capitol
Hill, especially in House circles, re.
speetins present prospects Of a late
getaway. Middle August seems likelier
now than early June. Indeed. talk
about June adjournment has pretty
wsu ceased. So much is on the card
and % much OF 1t packed with dis
pute and debate. something like a
drive will be necessary to make the
grade even for August.
Here and there is discussion touch.
ing the responsibility for the situation.
Does it rest on House or Senate? Has
the House dawdled? Is the Senate
now dawdling? When not dawdling,
has the House under its rules moved
expeditiously or has it moved care.
lessly, and thereby imposed on the
Senate extra work in the matter OF
review?
Why proceed with such discussion?
Is there not already bad blood enough
in the ranks Of the majority? Can one
turn a corner without humping into
factionism of some kind over some
issue?
Whatever of get-together spirit
can be mustered is now highly de,
sirable. There is use for every bit OF
1t. The congressional primaries are
just beginning, and many Of them will
shortly be in full swing. And after
they are out of the way will come the
contests against the common enemy.
A bad start sometimes makes a
good ending. Surely the start on Capt.
tol. Hill has been, if not bad, unfortu-
nate enough to cause q good deal of
anxiety in republican circles through
out the country as to the November
verdict.
