 This change in the running time of trains forces the farmer who ships milk to get to the station approximately an hour earlier than during the summer season, whether the town from which he ships Is adhering to standard or day light methods of keeping time. It seems very certain that the average person hereabouts would prefer standard time If
 all other communities including New
 York city could be made to adhere to it, but New York messes things up by keep ing daylight time and the railroads re- cognize New York time to the extent of changing their timetables, which, in turn mixes things up in this corner of the state.

An Unfortunate Incident.

A N OLD lady who picked a peranum from a
n fower-bed in one of the District parks was
arrested and lodged in the House of Detention
overnight This doesn't sound particularly COM
plimentary to the District government. 1t would
form splendid text for Socialist soap-box SPELL
binder. The historian writing upon the life and
customs OF the times century from now will be
puzzled when he reads of this incident in the files
OF old newspapers-it will fit so poorly into the
picture OF charity and democracy which he will
desire to paint. But it happened. The police rec
ords say So
Now the police involved in the affair." of
course, acted according to the letter of the law
They were well within their rights in escorting
the lady to the station house. The booking officer
was well within his right when he ordered her
locked up because she could furnish the requi-
site collateral Nobody can be accused OF exceed
ing authority. We have no evidence that the poor
woman was abused treated otherwise than with
courtesy.
Nevertheless this is one of those things that
never should have happened 1t causes black
mark to be placed unjustly against the record Of
the city 1t sounds too much like the old story
OF the starving man arrested and sent to prison
Tor stealing loaf OF bread-the sort of mclodrama
that doesn't happen very often in this country.
The incident would have been prevented if the
policeman had used discretionary common sense
vi course, the police manual is the police manual
The park regulations are in black and white Dis
elimination in favor of any lawbreaker seldom is
justified. But there times when even the
guardians Of the law with the sternest sense OF
duty would do we'll to close their eyes or look the
other way. This, it seems to us, was one of them.
kindly warning should have been sufficient for
all practical purposes.
Ii is against the law, believe, to kiss in
the parks. At least, the act could be interpreted
as unbecomng and might be grounds for arrest
But anybody with of sentiment at all can
imagine instances where it would be very poor
taste for park policeman to do his whole duty
Policemen should be who know not alone
how % use their clubs and assert their authority
They should be who know how and when
to turn their backs Every law is harsh and un-
justified at tmes-and liable to become source
OF embarrassment to the municipal authorities
!. We regret the incident happened-because we
believe that the average District bluecoat is man
who knows how to stroll along in the other d.
rection at the right times and in the right places
II he doesn't he hardly is fitted for his position
knowledge of the law is only half the mental
equipment he needs He must also know some
thing OF human nature in order to function eff
cienty as keeper OF order among human beings

Time to Danish Bogus Stock Statesmen.

FFFORTS to get handouts on some of the
l. bogus stock statesmen who infest Washing
ton always have approval. The city cannot
be rid Of these fellows until there are laws with
teeth-such States have. District bank
ers propose to give the community statutes OF this
sort.
The further the investigation into the activi-
ties of blue-sky operators continues the more
scandal is turned up. The National Capital has
been. without much doubt vertable garden Of
roses for peddlers OF shares in oil wells, gold
mines. new potato peelcrs, tin aeroplanes, and
such-like marvels. They have toiled not nor spun.
They have just talked and the gold bits have
dropped into the pockets of their breeches.

upset by number of failures last winter there

The establishment OF an unlisted branch OF
the Washington Stock Exchange without doubt will
do great deal of good. 1t gives District people
the assurance if they wish to take advantage of
it. that their transactions will pass. at stage
through the hands OF honest men. But such is
human nature that the average clerk or bootblack

dams. will dstrust the exchange officials rather
than the peddlers. We have no doubt but that
stock might be listed at cents the local board
and sold for $50 on the street-so clever are the
statesmen at conversation. 1t must be remem-
bered that they dealing with people ignorant

associations will cooperate in efforts to get
the right sort of laws-laws that will enable i'm
mediate and effective action against any man who
promises thousand for Such laws will at
ford tremendous protection to widowed wash
women soda fountain clerks, maiden ladies with
heavy banks accounts, etc.
The bogus stock statesmen are nothing more
than pickpockcts. A way must be provided to
deal with them pickpockets-not as gentlemen
The District is behind times in this respect. 1t

'SHIPGOES HUNDRED
MILES OFF COURSE
TO AID SICK MAN

In a trite but comprehensive re-
port Capt. II. l.. Look. of the steam =
ship President Garfield OF the United
States lines, upon a recent arrival in
New York narrated a gripping story
OF the sea. The report succinctly
told OF the treatment by radio of a
seaman in the throes of pneumonia.
his eventual transfer at sea and a
course OF treatment aboard the liner
that resulted in his stepping ashore
| in New York a we'll man.
The President GARFIELD was en-
route to London when the stirring
incident occurred. Shortly before
midnight the wireless operator re-
sponded to a call for aid. The mes
sage came from the freight steam
ship West Norranus. bound from
Mobile, Ala. to Rotterdam. Holland.
and stated that a member of the en-
gine room force was seriously i'll
and in need of immediate medical
attention. The West Norranus was
then about 100 miles out of the
course of the President Garfield.
DIR. G. II. Gopher. surgeon of the
Pre- sident GARFIELD. was summoned
and took charge of the case by radio.
The physician called for a detailed
description of the mans Illness, and
from the reply diagnosed the case
as one OF pneumonia in a most ad-
vanced stage. The surgeon pre-
, scribed an emergency treatment.
Then came message from the
freighter stating that its supply of
drugs was most limited and that it
was impossible to follow out DR..
Copher's instructions. 1t was fur
ther stated that the patient was
sinking rapidly and his life was
despaired of. When the informa-
tion was conveyed to Capt. Look he
gave orders that the course of the
President Garfield be changed that
they might come up with the
freighter and take charge of the sit
uation.
Full speed ahead" went the Or
der from the bridge to the engine
room. and through the night raced
the United states liner on her err
rand OF mercy. The passengers did
not know until morning that their
vessel was being taken out of its
course on matter OF life and
knowledge they stood by the rail.

the frefghter over which the death
angel fluttered.
About midafternoon the West
Norranus came into view. and with
in short time the President Gar
field was close beside her. A life
boat in charge of the chief officer,
X. b. Lowry and carrying DR.. CO.
pher. was promptly lowered away.
It was found that the sick man.
John w. Mi..er. was in precarious
condition and IL was determined to
remove him to the liner. The trans
fer was speedily accomplished and
once more the President Garfield
headed for London. Miller was kept
aboard the steamship. and before
New York hove into view on the re
turn trip he had been completely re-
stored to health.
The Washington herald., 1922-11-01

ITO THE average Washington schoolboy the
policeman on the block is greater per-
sonage than Senator or member OF the
Cabinet At some stage in his career his aspira-
tionS are divided between becoming patrolman
and becoming stick-up man-and he usually de-
oides in favor of the former because the guardian
of the law presents more picturesque appear
ance This lad will listen to the buecoat when
he would snicker at the minister snap spit balls
u the school principal.
Consequently good deal OF benefit is likely
To result from the plan to send members OF the
iorce into District school rooms as lecturers
Some convincing lessons in public safety can be
impressed the minds of the younger genera
ton. This proposal of Mr. Oyster and Maj. Su!-
lvaR is one of the best results OF the safety cam
aaign among school children.
The streets OF Washington dangerous
chiefly to school boys and school girls. The de-
libefate judgment which the older man or woman
is apt to use before venturing upon crowded
street prevents hundreds OF accidents. But the
children have no such judgment. They race
thoughtlessly in the path of oncomng automo-
hie They have still to learn the lesson that eau
-tion IS the better part OF valor We have seen
groups OF them from the sidewalk and race
acros. the in front of heavy line OF traffic
as mere matter OF daring-just as boys in the
country used to venture upon rotten ice in early
>pringtime.
The good influence oil the policeman is certain
be felt 1t cannot be exerted too soon. A
fftcen-nIinute talk by a detailed from the
PRECINCT station is apt to be more beneficial than
weeks o hard work the part OF the teachers.
II be admitted that boys and girls OF a GER
tain age do not hold teachers in very high es-
They delight in doing just the opposite to
what they are told
With the policeman it is different. They are
swcd by him. He is creature from another
"orld. hero OF childhood romance.
OF course good deal OF discretion must be
used i'll the selection OF The precinct cap
tanS should it that none of their with
a tendency to scold instead OF explain be detailed
for this duty. The children be given the
impression that the in uniform is. after all,
iIst another sort OF school teacher The feeling
- awe and admiration must be preserved.
The plan should be welcomed by school au-
. thoritics 1t is something definite and worthwhile
in the trashbox OF proposals received from here,
here and everywhere.
