Not That There Is a Chance, But

n ERMANS might be pardoned for wanting
VI the man, Wilhelm Hohenzollern, back to
rule over them kaiser, king, president or
prime minister. But we can not understand how
any intelligent people desire to be ruled by
kEE without particular as to his own
personal qualifications.
Germany under the Kaiser prospered. He was
an able ruler, whatever his motives may have
been. He is the only hereditary monarch of any
considerable intelligence who has held Euro
Pean throne in quite few generations. He may
have been dishonest he may have been arrogant;
he may have been cruel: he may have been a
religious fanatic. The fact remains that he gov
erned efficiently for all the people The manner
IN which he kicked that grand old bigot Bis
mark, off his shoulders and proceeded to rule
after the fashion of the nineteenth century should
entitle him to a certain amount of consideration
even among republicans
But he was not able man as Walter
Rathenau. Why, instead of killing this gentleman,
didn't the monarchists try to make him kaiser?
They know that if Mr. Hohenzollern comes back
to them he will come back a man broken with
age and sorrow and unable to give them the bene-
mt OF his old ability They know that none Of
MS sons or his grandsons worthy to hold
candle to him as regards craftsmanship.
The German people certainly do not want the
crown prince kaiser. They know of him as
a scatterbrained fellow who wouldn't make even
good burgermeister in Bavarian village None
OF his brothers, probably, any better although
the world doesn't know much about them

development of the race. BY TAX

youth. Yet, probably II that man
were questioned, he would admit
that as he stands today. he is a
wiser. saner. better balanced, SYM
pathetic. patient human being than
he was at 81.
The question then arises How
much of the advance in point OF
view and in mental conceptions de-
pends on the fading OF the same
youthful aspirations and appetites?"
Is ii possible to get back all of the
vim of youth, without once more
giving time and thought to those
youthful interests which are now
deemed of little value?
Many of the Eastern nations have
this custom. They divide their life
into three periods. The first INVENT,
years are spent In study, in mental
preparation for the business Of life.
The second period is spent in the
active commercial world, In rearing
and educating the family and in ad-
justing the material conditions Of
the household. So far American.
But here comes the change. At the
third period the man retires from
active life entirely; his accumuIa-
tions and the help Of his now
maturing children provide for his
slim physical wants and he gives
himself UP to ethical study. con-
temptation and inner development.
When life ceases. he feels he has
threshed the utmost out of his one
incarnation. He has rounded out
every possible side of his being and
goes out into the unknown future

lens that 1t may present to him.

eye to Eye"

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
There has been several letters pro
| and con, relating to the selection
of members of the police department
through the good Offices of the L.
S. Civil Service Commission, who are
advocating the character investiga-
ton OF all candidates for appoint
ment to that department.
What has become of the much
touted Eye to Eye" test made de-
cidedly famous by our former chief
of police, Major Raymond w. Pull
man. He gave out the information
on his taking the reins OF the ONCE
of superintendent of police, that he
could hold conversations in his
sanctum sanctorum at police head
quarters with candidates and pass
upon their characters and their
abilities to function as officers. Time
has shown that something went
wrong with this system. the i'm
mense numbers OF men going wrong
being from his selection by that
method.
Now. when a rule is not applicable
for defense of a mans rights. why
should such as the present Civil
Service rule governing the appoint
ments of the police department be
used at all only for his destruction
and hindrance? This Is most GER
tainly the case. as for instance. the
the Civil Service was introduced by
former commissioner for the sole
purpose of permitting the promotion
and appointment OF mem desired to
NIL certain positions In the depart
ment. and the education acquired by
them In a book form, without actual
experience or practice, made this
an easy task on the part of that
type OF man. But what about the
Fellow who plodded and met danger:
injuries or had the important ar
rest records TO recommend him for
the position. Why, he was left out,
OF course. In favor Of the man with
the mentality to absorb the manual
backward and forward, with the po-
lice regulations committed to MEM
org TO boot. Does this make the
type Of policeman that you want

There was no suggestion of his

the distinction of being the Oldest

ne worked in an engineering con-
struction corps, then became clerk
OF the board of education from 1912

ator not TO be in harmony with the
Constitution as conceived by the
makers OF the Constitution and the
several States that made IL the
law OF the land" has seated only
one side OF the story.
The Senator has the right TO his
personal opinion of what is or is not
constitutional But since almost
every article in the Constitution was
broadly stated, and wisely so, too.
IL i'll behoveos the Senator to make
his criticism any stronger than
merely a critical analysis of consti-
tutional authority. Without weight
ing his words the Senator has at
tackled the character OF the men who
compose the court, or at least such
an inference may be drawn from
context OF his speech in Cincinnati
before the labor convention. Char
acter attacks are not good arEu-
ments in constitutional law: but
such speeches may do much harm.
When the CoHtitution was pro-
r"ulgated. and for many. many years
