Meddling With Literature

1t seems hardly credible that any
Representative organizations of pub
iishers and authors will adopt plan
Tor the voluntary censorship of man
uscripts," as is suggested by John 8
Sumner, secretary of the New York
Society for the Suppression of Vice
The only voluntary censorship an
author can exercise is over his own
manuscripts, and that censorship
consists of the use of his own taste
and judgment.
There are on the statute books
ample laws to deal with the publica-
ton of saiacious literature. These
laws have been invoked from time TO
time, and suffice to keep most DELHI
erately indecent books from sale
They are effective to suppress anv
books or magazines whose appeal is
to vulgarity only.
Any sort of censorship based on
photoplay censorship, which is not
very effective. and play censorship.
which does not yet exist, would be
distasteful and repugnant to writing
men and women.
1t could never be voluntary. It
New-York tribune., 1922-08-05

would always have to be exercised
by some person appointed for that
purpose, and upon the personal point
Of view Of such an individual would
depend the reading matter given to
the public.
An officious meddler might well Sc
cure this position, and work that is
Of the highest character and value
might thus be suppressed. The late
Robert Bonner in his highly moral
publications permitted no reference
to gambling, and once rejected e.
manuscript Of H. G. Burners because
Bunner had made dozen people
offer brandy TASKS to a young man
injured in railroad wreck.
So carefully tended literature
might suit many very excellent peo-
pie, but the majority Of Americans
prefer freedom and individual re-
sponsibility.
Literature is doing fairly well in
America and will doubtless improve
as the years go by. But it will not
be helped in the least by self-created
censors to sit in Judgment over it.
New-York tribune., 1922-08-05
Jim Reeds Victory

The narrow victory won in the
Missouri primaries by Senator Reed
after terrific struggle is naturally
susceptible of varying interpreta-
tions.
But that it implies a definite re-
lection in an important state Of
further party leadership by former
President Wilson seems open to little
doubt. Senator Reed during the
Presidential campaign of two years
ago was not only an opponent of Mr..
Wilson but on the paramount issue
showed fiat contempt for his party's
platform. Senator Reed is a blatant
national isolationist and repudiates
this country's international respon-
sibility. According to the usages of
American politics he was due to be
kicked OUT That he has been re-
nominated cannot we'll be read other
wise than as reputation of Mr..
Wilson--as notice that his advice
is not wanted by Missouri Demo-
Gratis.
Whether it also means that the
Democrats Of Missouri agree with
Senator Reed is another matter, and
differences in conclusion are possible.
Was Mr.. Wilson's active support
blighting to Breckenridge Long?
How many votes did Senator Reed
attract by his ability and his refusal
to accept dictation? How many
votes did Mr.. Long lose because he
was willing to be paraded as "me
too? Senator Reed has had more
experience in politics than his ad-
versary and is more closely in touch
with the local machines of St. Louis
and Kansas City, with which for
years he has had relations. 1t by no
means follows from his success that
majority of Missouri Democrats
accept all of his ideas.
Senator Reed should have been de-
feated because of his advocacy of a
policy of isolation and because of
many things that he did during the
war. But we are not surprised at
the result in view Of the attempt to
cruelty Senator Reed solely because
he was an anti Wilsonite and the
great labor to set Mr.. Wilson up as
a figure to be idolatrously worshiped.

The Mayflower Finds Herself

The Mayf1ower has found herself.
Disqualified from the international
fishermen's race last year because
she had not proved her worth as a
bona fide fishing boat, she at once set
forth for the Banks, and has been
doing the full work of a regular
member of the fishing fleet ever
since. Her catch has been as good
as the best of the crafts of Glouces-
ter.
In this manner has the Mayfower
answered her critics. Though built
in the old yards at Essex, thew
claimed that as she was planned bv
Burgess she was built to win rather
than to be useful. But, yacht or no
yacht, she is now redolent of Goldfish
and is equal to the trials of the
Banks. AS a matter of fact, many
OF the best fishermen closely resem-
bic yachts-their lines slender and
graceful and their canvas rugged for
speed.
The Mayfower, therefore, is now
eligible to enter 'the preliminary
races in Gloucester Harbor early in
October to contest for the honor
OF representing the United States
against the. Canadian contender.
She has weathered every wrack and
proved she is more than a racing
machine. If to her falls the duty of
carrying the American colors, let it
be said again, "May the best boat
Win!"
New-York tribune., 1922-08-05
Concerning Pension Rights

10 the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: John G. Walber, executive
secretary of the bureau of information
Of Eastern railroads, errs slightly in
his letter to The Tribune when he
claims that the men do not pay for
their pensions on standard roads. The
Pennsylvania Railroad, for example,
does give its employees pension for
which they do not pay. SO far Mr..
Walber is correct, but he neglects to
mention the fact that an employee who
belongs to the Pennsylvania Railroad
Voluntary Relief Association receives
a larger pension than one who does not.
SO in way they do pay for their
pensions.
This association is run by the COM
pany for the insurance Of the en-
ployees, and they are paid when sick
or off on account of injuries received
in the line of duty. 1t is much cheaper
to pay a dollar or so day insurance
than to give injured employees their
salaries while off on account of in
juries.
The term voluntary" is purely a
company joke. No man may be en-
ployed until he signs an agreement to
abide by the rules of the association,
dues for which he never pays, as they
are deducted from his wages by the
company. The few men who do not
belong to the association now are
men who refused to join it at it's in
ception years ago.
Mr.. Walber asserts that pension
rights are no part of the compensation
of the men, which is quite true. He
continues: "They have been estab-
lished to encourage faithful service ~
How? Here again Mr.. Walber gives
US half truth. Pension rights were
established, if the roads were honest
enough to admit it., to be used as a
club over the heads of the oldest en-
ployees in case strike should be con-
templated, and there is the true meat
Of the matter.
If the roads give in this once and
take back the old men who have had
the courage to strike for principle
which to them seems just, giving them
seniority and, of course, pension rights
they fear they will have established a
precedent that will nullify the effect OF
the club, pension rights" and in case
of future strikes the older men will
not have as much hesitancy in joining
the others as they now have.

Sir: Your editorial Supreme Folly"

l candidly believe that any fair
minded American citizen approves of
the stand President Harding has taken
to have the coal and railroad strikes

Gathering Foreign News

The function of foreign CORE
spondents Of American newspapers
is so important that the conference
at Williamstown considers a discus
sion Of qualifications not beneath its
dignity.
The difficulties under which most
American correspondents labor are
not enough appreciated. Outside Of
Great Britain nearly all Of them are
confronted by the barrier of Ian
guage and by the handicap which
this imposes upon entering into a
close understanding Of local condi-
tions. Men who pride themselves on
knowing French or German as a
matter of fact are often not suffi-
ciently at home in foreign tongue
to be able to meet strangers on an
equal footing.
SO American correspondents on
the Continent are forced into asso-
citation with other English-speaking
persons and their views are second
hand ones. There is temptation to
accept the official Foreign Office
views as we'll as the Foreign Office
news and rely for further informa-
tion on the comments in the local
papers. The result is an incomplete
picture. Sometimes it is offset by
going to another extreme and de-
pending upon some one or two indi-
viduals who are or have been in
public life and blindly accepting
their opinions.
The foreign correspondent has the
further problem of translating his
information into terms that will be
understood at home. He must con-
stantly bear in mind the things that
are obvious abroad, but which, to
the average American reader, need
Qualification. Doing this he is torn
between explaining too fully and
taking too much for granted. AS
rule there is no easily discernible
national sentiment" and there are
all the consequent pitfalls of parti-
sanship to avoid.
Perhaps these are some of the
reasons why really great foreign
correspondents are SO rare. Yet the
foreign news in American papers
is surprisingly good. We may still
lack observers with broad vision and
thorough understanding of foreign
conditions, such as can be obtained
only by many years of study and
experience. But the American news
idea that facts come first and in
depreciation and deduction come
second is kept alive, even though,
speaking, generally, European life is
organized against it through it's
overemphasis on the opinion of the
writer and it's tolerance of propa
ganda news.

Homesick /. w. w.

The colony of Americans that went

ton to work in the mines of Siberia

This is the message they are report

pot luck with Uncle Sam:
For Gods sake, stay in America,
and, instead of collecting money to
aid starving Russia, collect money to

Books

Among the welcomest of the letters
that would come to my desk in the
Tribune Office, if l had a desk in the
Tribune Office, would be those written
by Horace B. Liveright, the book pub
Usher. Though Mr.. Liveright's COM
munications to me are not exclusive,
being mimeographed to thousand
other reviewers and critics, they are
little the less gladstone on that ac-
count Nor is the pleasure they afford
impaired by their honest errand, which
is to ignite me and the others with in
terest in his and his partner, Mr..
Boni's, virtuous wares.
My Dear Mr. Hammond; When you
look through the catalog which l am
sending you under separate cover
think you will agree with me that my
autumn 1922 list is the most interesting
ono that L have got together in my
four and one-half years in the publish
ing business Not Including the eight
autumn modern library titles (page 43),
there are twenty-three new books that
are coming out under the B. & L. i'm
print this season. 1t is only natural that
in such long list some of the books
are closer to my heart than others In
extremely large families~it is inevitab BILE
that there must be favorite children.
And the smaller the family the greater
chance every child has of being well
treated. For this reason my lists from
now on will be very much smaller.
Mr.. Lveright as a letter writer is of

cornery, intimate, fortnight and hand

friend and they would eat Of the
same pie. But now they find the
dough mixed with arsenic.
Is there a single communist-mind-
ed American of the rank and file,
man or woman, who has had taste
of Red Russia and not found it bit
ter? In every instance hope has
been contradicted by experience. If
the 500 /. w. w. dupes of Haywood
ever get home the danger is not that
they will spread Bolshevism, but
that they will become the hardest
boiled Of reactionaries.

More Truth Than Poetry
By James J. Montague

Song
Sing me song of the pillows
That buffet the vessels bow,
And that leap and break in her
cleaning wake
When the gales sou'east by
SOU!
But not on the rolling ocean,
Not on the kissing foam
Sing it some day when Pm tucked
In a rocking chair at home.
Sing me a song of labor,
Of plowing the turfy soil,
Of the glorious charm of the
dear old farm
With it's radiant round of toll.
But not when Pm wedding onions
Or hoeing the rotund beet
More joy I'll gain from your
soft refrain
If sit in a swinging seat.
Sing of the soft contentment
That only the poor can find,
OF the simple life that is free
from strife,
Of innocent peace of mind,
But not when my rent and taxes
Are dreadfully overdue
That song I'd hear when pay
days near,
If it's just the same to you.
Song is a consolation,
Music a magic art
That soothes ones woes and
heals the blows
That fall on a wounded heart.
But the sweetest, loveliest ditty
That ever composer wrote
Too often serves to rasp the
nerves
If it strikes a personal note.

that he confesses prowess. Like Gallo,

My Dear Mr.. Hammond The last
book Edgar Saltus wrote, THE Ghost

It's very good mystery story, 70 much
better written than ninety-nine out of 100
stories OF this kind that 1t should be
successful even though none OF Mr.. Sal
tus's books for the last ten years have
met with much popular approval.
Several of your own profession whs
have read Elinor Chips "Doubtins
Castle" say that it's one OF the best
first novels they have come across It
reminds me very much of Galsworthy
although I don't pretend that it's quite
so fine as The Man OF Property
Unstudied, four-square, irresistible
and full Of high purpose, Mr..
Liveright's carbon radios promote a
rare feeling of confidence. What an
advocate is he! And what causes he
has to advocate! II hope you'll like
Heartbeat as much as I do" he writes,
for instance, "and that you'll tell your
readers to buy it."
