Justice for the Peddlers

The pushcart peddlers have asked
Commissioner of Markets O'Malley
to reduce their license fees from ST.
to so cents a week. The request Is
reasonable. They are now paying
100000 more year in fees than
the Board Of Estimate has appro
priated for the support Of the public
markets. There is no. reason why
the city should make such profit
out Of the poorest class of tradesmen.
Affairs in the Market Department
have been extremely bad. Only the
disclosures of The Tribune concern
ing them forced any Improvement.
BY granting this request Mr..
O'Malley can, if he chooses, remove
a considerable part of the blame that
has attached to the department.
If he is really desirous Of making
the markets useful to the public he
will get rid Of the army of collectors
employed about them and conduct
them at actual cost Of operation.
New-York tribune., 1922-10-17
Maligning Clemenceau

In the details Of French politics
Americans have little or no interest.
But whoever read Caillaux's long
malignment of Clemenceau printed
in "The World" cannot help draw
ing comparison between the war
records of the,two men.
Caillaux from the start played
the German game. In the Argentine,
and later in Italy, while his country
was fighting for its life, he was in
triguing with its enemies, and even
sought to bring about a peace of
compromise which would have
amounted to a peace of dishonor for
France. AS a matter Of fact, many
Americans have never been able to
understand how he escaped death
as a traitor.
Clemenceau, on the other hand, in
spired his countrymen to new
faith in their ultimate victory over
the forces which Caillaux was abet-
ting, and through the vigor of his
will and the courage Of his vision
brought the Allies into unity and
hastened the end of the war.
For Caillaux now to endeavor to
discredit Clemenceau in the eyes Of
the American public seems impu-
dent. 1t is much as though Aaron
Burr had attacked the loyalty and
patriotism Of Hamilton or Jefferson.
But to-day only too few Americans
remember Caillaux's career well
enough to make allowances for the
fact that at the time the man he
abuses was serving France and
America CaillauX was serving their
enemies. And unfortunately "The
World" has not enlightened its
readers as to the true character of
its latest star correspondent in
France.

The Dawes Talis1nan

General Charles G. Dawes has
made it known that the expletive
which he put in the swear-word
dictionary is not "Hell and Maria" :"
but just plain "Hell Maria" He
says it originated in the state of
Hayes, Garfield, Taft and Harding.
Apparently it was used faniliarly
in the best pioneer households, with
a comma between "Hell" and
Maria"
General Dawes believes in the
driving power of explosive language
and in the impressiveness Of the ex-
plosive attitude. He cultivates both
for altruistic purposes. The efficacy
of his method has left Washington
speechless. The valuation he puts
on it is indicated in the passages
from his recent address which ara
reproduced elsewhere on this page.
The General is as much genius
at budgeting and regimenting as he
is as a popularizer Of obsolete ex-
pletives. With "Hell Maria" as his
standby he accomplished miracles.
But let no mediocre imitator abuse
this Buckeye talisman.

Organizing Discomfort

1t is highly Slgnlncant. that MT.
Hearst's morning newspaper gave
such a glowing and enthusiastic ac-
count Of the meeting for the Social
lists and Farmers Labor party at the
Lexington Theater--a meeting held
for the admitted purpose of organ
izing discomfort in this country.
Mr.. Hearst, before his hopes for
Office were blighted by the Democratic
convention at Syracuse, talked much
and often of "new and progressive
party" He has in the past been an
organizer of third parties, whose
platforms appealed to the discon-
tented. The independence League,
which he headed when he ran for
Mayor; the independence party,
which he led as candidate for Gov
ernor, and the Peoples Union for
Political Progress, which he formed
early this year, subscribed to every
wild doctrine calculated to stir up
class hatred and to promote unrest.
The Hearst newspapers have been
friendly to the Farmers Labor
party, they have upheld La Toilette,
and defended Morris Hillquit. They
are in an excellent position, if their
owner so wills, to become the organs
Of this new political union for the
dissemination of discord.
AS The Tribune has repeatedly
pointed out, Mr.. Hearst's eyes are
steadily directed toward the White
House. No attempt of his to conceal
his ambition for the highest office by
raids on less important Offices has
ever served to conceal his purpose.
Two years from now candidate
for President will be nominated. Mr..
Hearst is not Republican. He is
not Democrat, although he has
served as a Democrat in Congress
and run as Democrat for Governor
of New York. He is, and so de-
scribes himself, an independent"
who believes, or affects to believe,
that the two great parties are reac-
tionary and dangerous, and who will
not hesitate to put himself at the
head of any third party which de-
velops sufficient strength to promise
him support.
A Hearst Socialist Farmers La
Dor party would not become a se-
rlous menace to the country, for sell
dom was discomfort at such a low ebb
IN America as now. But any effort
to organize i'll feeling and hatred is
mischevous and meant to be mis-
chievous. And if Mr.. Hearst plays
an Important part in this organiza-
tion his motives will be as apparent
as they always have been when he
sought to crafty his undying ambi-
ton to be President of the United
States.

Those Wild Young Mussela

Whoever has met the fresh water
mussel ON his native river bottom
will be inclined to agree with the
counsel for the defense arguing be-
Tore the Supreme Court OF the
United States to prove that mussels
are not wild. They can pinch, If
tney have a mind. But as a rule
they cling tenaciously to their beds
and will scarcely move for years and
years, unless some small boy or ami
NAL dislodges them. They are no
toriously phlegmatic and sluggish
and for this reason, according to
counsel, cannot either legally or
otherwise be considered "wild.,
1t remains for the learned iu,-
tices. therefore, to decided upon the
exact status of this lnollusk. In

wild animal and migratory fish,

Bad Team Work

The Cabinet needs a co-ordinator
of comnuniques. in recent mes
sage President Harding asked Con-
gress to think over amendments to
strengthen the transportation act,
to give the Railroad Labor Board
larger powers and to eliminate rail-
road strikes. Yet Secretary DAVIS
of the Department of Labor made
a speech at Athens, Ohio, Saturday
night in which he advocated the
abolition of the Labor Board and c
return to the old-time exhortationist
system of Federal conciliation and
mediation.
No suggestion could be less In
harmony than this is with the Pres
ident's plans for freeing the public
from the grip of tyrannous labor
minorities. The Administration
and the country are at one on this
issue. But Secretary Davis wants
to run away from it.
Under the mediation and concil-
iation system Federal officials
meekly presented themselves when
q rail strike occurred or was threat
ened and said in effect: "Kindly let
us horn in on this. We know it is
none of our business, but we have
to earn our salaries" If they were
taken on as mediators they were
generally too anxious to please one
or the other side to pay much atten-
tion to defending the public's
interest.
A rail strike is the peoples busi-
ness, and therefore the govern
ments. Uninterrupted transporta-
tion is public necessity. And
since the government has assumed
control over rail operations and
fixes wages and working conditions
when called upon to do so, it is
only natural that 1t should prohibit
strikes by workers who have carried
case to the Railroad Labor Board
and lost it.
Mr.. Davis talked foolishly when
he said that the Labor Board was a
failure. 1t has not been failure.
Its assertion of the plain fact that
when the shopmen quit they quit
and forfeited seniority rights
knocked the strike galley west from
the start: Strikes will be rare
when this principle is insisted upon.
The Labor Board has shown
courage and capacity. 1t is a gov
ernment agency of the greatest
promise 1t should be strengthened
rot abandoned.
New-York tribune., 1922-10-17
A Courteous Reference

PRESIDENT Harding is more than
courteous in valuing the work. of
This Congress. Where he might have
been critical he is magnanimous
he has done more for Congress-
than Congress has done for shim or
for itself. The case ON which Re-
publican Senators and Representa-
tives are appealing for reelection
was made largely by the President
and made in essential particulars
over obstinate opposition in Con.
gress.
Mr.. Harding rightly emphasizes
the one outstanding achievement at
the Capitol the rapid and salutary
reduction Of government expendi-
ture. When he wrote to Mr.. Mon
dell: "For the year ended June so,
1920, our public expenditures aggre-
gated SO, ,4o3,343, 900; q year later,
S5,115,92o,o0o; for the fiscal year
1922, s3,373,6O7 O00,' he summed up
an amazing record Of retrenchment,
begun in the two preceding Con-
crosses and heroically continued in
this one.
Here is just claim on the coun-
try's lasting gratitude. Congress, it
as true, was willing TO forego it by
passing the bonus bill, thus sacrifc-
ing all the benefits Of the hard saw
ings of the last three years. But
New-York tribune., 1922-10-17
The School Emergency

1t is being brought home to the
voters of New York City that the
community is face to face with an
educational crisis of the gravest
character. The part time evil, which
denies full education to thousands
OF children, has grown with the
years, is still growing, and, SO long
as Mr.. .Hylan retains his present
views, cannot be abated.
The disaster is local one in the
first instance. The disgrace is New
York's, and it is the children Of
New York who are thus to be handi-
capped throughout life. But the
consequences pass far beyond the
borders of the city. Not to educate
adequately the children of greater
New York is to fail miserably in
the most essential feature of our
Americanization program precisely
where Americanization is most ur-
gently needed. Hylanism is not
only blasting the futures Of New
York's children--it is breeding peril
to American institutions far and
wide.
How can this emergency be met?
Mr.. Hylan has three more years in
office. 1t might have some effect
upon him if the school children of
New York to whom his admins
tratlon was refusing education
marched down to the City Hall and
made their protest in person. A pro-
cession of 10000 children ought to
attract the attention Of even Mr..
Hylan. But nothing in Mr.. Hylan's
record suggests that he would be
amenable to persuasion. His heart
bleeds for the people, but, whether
his victims are pushcart venders
or children, it is kind of bleeding
that doesn't do much practical good.
The problem is plainly state
problem quite as much as a CITY
problem. The states general control
OF education already is far-reaching.
The state authorities do not hes;-
tate to step in when small district
or a village fails to provide ade-
quate schooling. The question
which Hylanism has raised is
whether an emergency has not been
created in the schools Of this city
which demands intervention. A
long period of neglect has put the
community so far behind in respect
to school accommodations that a
complete program cannot be in,me-
diately commenced without unduly
straining the city's resources.
The situation clearly calls for the
highest educational wisdom. Prob
ably radical recasting of the school
system in order to provide emer-
gency facilities pending a return to
normal will be necessary. At any
rate, the whole problem calls for
New-York tribune., 1922-10-17

the President. more mindful Of it's
good fame than it was. stepped in
with his veto. He played indulgent
Providence to the bonus backsliders.
Thus, also, he enabled himself to
write Mr.. Mondell generous refer
ence letter. This letter may help
Republican Senator's and Repre-
sentatives to reelection. But what
will help them more than their own
record is the repugnance Of the
average voter to taking chances at
this time with any form Of Demo-
cratic leadership.
