The New Rent Board.

PRESIDENT HARDING faces the problem
i involved in the selection of the new District
Rent Commission with thorough appreciation of
the responsibility entaied. He does well to weigh
carefully the qualifications of every man and woman
suggested for membership.
Washngton's rent law no longer constitutes
wartime legislation. 1t can not even be considered
emergency legislation in any very strict sense. The
stage has been reached where it is deliberate
experiment in economics and sociology carried out
under normal conditions.
1t creates far than a local situation. Its
success failure will react everywhere in the
United States. The economists OF the world will
keep their eyes on Washington while the expert
ment is in progress. personnel with broader Wis
ion than that which encompasses only home town
affairs is needed. At the same time every member
should have intimate knowledge of Washington
life.
There need be little objection to the selection
OF some housing expert whose home is not in the
District OF Columbia If he knows his subject thor
oughy and is not preudiced in favor of anyone he
will the public better perhaps, than someone
who is blinded by local feelings.
The question is-Can anything be done which
will enable the average family to live in a better
home?
That secr1s to be the ultimate question in every
discussion OF rent legislation. We are not con-
cerned as to the means. II 0ctter housing cond-
tons for less produced by the lsssez faire
system, then that is what we want in Washington.
II better housing conditions less are pro-
duced under rent legislation the purpose has
beer. served.
Other cities and states ~ on thc brink o.
passing such laws but they await the verdict of
Washington cured Of its wartime hysteria.
Housing conditions in this city are not ideal at
present. Can anything be accomplished to make
them better? This question can not be answered
by amateurs in economics. Experts are required
and experts, it seems, President Harding is deter
mined to have He has large list of names under
consideration The most prominent of them are
Washington people with personal interest in the
welfare of their fellow citizens.
Tenants, of course should be represented on
such commission. But they should be men toer-
ant of the rights of tenants-men to whom the well
fare of the general public is of far more concern
than the welfare of any business.
If President Harding select men of this
type the test tubes will have been set for an sxpe-
riment which may prove revolutionary in the his
tory of social relations. Otherwise there will be
small and smoky laboratory explosion and the study
will be given up. II K

Air Regulation.
} EQUATION OF air traffic is absoluteI,
Y essential in Washington

IN essential in Washington.
Perhaps the same holds true of no other city
in the world The airplane is not yet in universal
use. Few communities so familiar with the hum
of cloud engines the District of Columbia. But
here there is no room for question. The unfortu-
nate disturbance of the Lincoln Memorial dedica-
ton services last week by the noise of an airplane
motor simply brings the issue to head. 1t called
the attention of the public forcibly to the need
which existed but, in itself, neither the FIRST
nor the worst example.
Mr.. Fahey, learn, is to lose his commission
of reserve officer in the United States Air Serv-
ice: This punishment will drive home excellent
lesson We not inclined to speak harshly of the
flier He doubtless did not realize the seriousness
of his offense and greatly surprised when he
learned of the public indignation. He is the victim.
Unless air traffic is regulated by law others will
make the same mistake.
The reserve flier himself is an estimable young
mana bit impusive, perhaps, but clean, daring
and skiul He, Intentionally, would not show dis
respect for the President of the United States and
far less TO the memory of Abraham Lincoln But
he should have considered the possible result OF
what he about to do before acting.
Tne neel of regulation shows what advances
have been made in aviation. A few years ago such
requirement would not have been dreamed Of.
But it is proposed that policemen be put in
the air to enforce the law. In fact, the piano can
be made powerful instrument both OF crime and
crime prevention. few days ago newspapers
printed account of airplane whisky. runners
the Canadian boundary. To prevent such
smuggling all police necessary.
Piracy, highway robbery and murder are pros
poets OF the future in the roadways OF the clouds.
1t is surprising that criminals have not utilized avia.
ton to more advantage before. There small
number OF trained in operating heavier than
air machines who seeking employment and
would not hesitate to enter any service which Of
fered them to exercise their talents to good
advantage.
And perhaps in few years traffic in the clouds
will become heavy and congested that regulation
will be essential to prevent accidents Already col
lisions have occurred within few miles Of
Washington which might have been prevented had
there been rigorous code which fers were forced
to observe.

Leniin.

w E shall not be surprised if news that Nico-
w la Lenin is dead the wire
night. For a number of months the pre-
mier OF Bolshevst Russia has been in failing health.
Now comes word that he is seriously sick and no
longer engage in active craftsmanship.
1t is not necessary to agree with Lenin's poll
ceS to hold strong admiration for the man. 1t
is necessary only to agree with his philosophy of
work. and this, convinced every worth
while in the world approves. His death might
or might not result in the downfall of the Soviet
system. 1t might cause anarchy. 1t might start
Russia the road to and healthy achieve
gone-one Of the two three greatest
living in the world and OF the three greatest
who ever have lived in Russia.
There is as much difference between Lenin and
the average Socialist between red liquor and
soda pop. The present premier OF Russia is
brilliant, honest, hard-working two-hsted, fighting
man. Russia go back to Peter the Great
to fnd statesman OF his caliber. She must go
back to Tolstoy find such another intellect.
If there a prospect that communism
would succeed anywhere in the world it in
Russia under this That it has failed, that
he himself has been forced to- admit its failure and
try to something from the wreckage, is sufi-
cent proof OF the weakness OF the system.
One Of the most despicable creatures in the
world is the so-called "parlor Bolshevist' the man
who turns to pacihsm because he is afraid to
tight and to communism because he is afraid to
work But the who holds the same doc
trnes and both works and fights is in another class
Such Lenn has been-a fighter all his life
Bolshevism has produced few colorful characters
But this man is, perhaps, the dramatic per-
sonalty to emerge from the world anywhere
He seems like brave soldier forced by cir
cumstances to do guard duty at a pink lemonade
party-hke knight in shining armor locked into
a room where convention of fat old women is
in progress. We nothing heroic about
Bolshevism. One of the best arguments against
It, either in Russia the United States that its
leaders are such spineless crackbrained men and
women That the hcroism, the courage, the in
dustry and the intellect of Lenin have been wasted
in such field is tragedy. He was the victim OF
circumstances. II he had been born in the United
States he would have been great and conserva-
tive President If he had been born in Great Brit
ain he would have been another Lloyd George
But he was born and reared in an atmosphere
where the man who did go to extremes in his
hatred for the existing government was a scoun-
drel in the minds OF all decent people. If Theo-
dore Roosevelt had been reared in such an atmos-
phere he would have been another Lenin. If
Lenin had been reared in the United States he
would have been another Roosevelt.

New SpirituaIism.

L n the skies OF spirtuaIism a new luminary is
i attracting considerable attenton-Dr Camille
Flammarion, celebrated French astronomer This
scientist has adopted attitude towards appar-
emily supernatural phenomena which promises an
eventual logical explanation. In other words he
has refrained from jumping at conclusions.
In common with Sir A. Conan Doyle, Sir Oil
yer Lodge and hundreds of others he has ac-
cepted certain reports as genuine. He has con-
WINGED himself that they are not the results OF
sleight of hand or of the imagination He is con-
vnced that actual messages have been received
from the souls of the dead. But he is not con-
VInced that they offer any proof whatsoever as to
the immortality of the soul
DR.. Flammarion has proved to his own salts
faction and to the satisfaction of many others that
something unknown to science detaches itself from
the body after death and maintains a separate and
invisible existence for a time. But" he asks,
what does this show" He maintains that it
means nothing in any consideration of the prob
lem OF eternal life. 1t denotes only, he claims
that the mind has certain functions which psychol-
ogists have not discovered as yet
Such workers as DR.. Flammarion eventually
VIII arrive at the truth. Wherever a mystery ex-.
lists it should be investigated by scholars who have
the mental equipment to undertake the work
Once man has accepted the Spiritualst
hypothesis that the existence of eternal life be-
yond the grave IS proven by messages his value
as scientific observer is gone He may be abso-
lutely honest and actuated by the highest of
Ideals. But once the truth or fasehood of
report IS established he does not hesitate to
employ it to substantiate his own argument with
out considering any other possibility
The French astronomer is not working from
this point of view. His work is on distinctly
higher plane than any in this field yet reported.
He is one of the few scholars who have started
study of spirituasm without allowing their
minds to become affected by the claims of con-
verts. From his laboratory we may confidently
spect startling disclosures concerning the nature

Daylight Saving.

After reading Mr.. Degman,s let

government employees should not
go to work at a. m. or a. m.
since il seems TO be a self-evident
fact that so much more work can be
accomplished in the early morning
hours than can be accomplished In
the afternoon. Perhaps Mr.. Deg

demands only food and rest. 1t Is
