Insurance
Is Sensible

YF we are not worth anything 10
our families or ourselves, let us
not think Of insurance today, or
any other day.
But
IF we are valuable to our fam
lilies and other kinfolk, if we are the
bread-winners, keeping the we'll
known wolf from the door, it be-
hooves us to make sensible pro-
vision for eventualities, 80 that
those we leave behind may not face
privation, distress and want.
This is CARRY LIFE INSUR-
ANCE DAY i'm the National Thrift
Campaign. If you have not already
insured your life for the benefit of
those dependent upon you, now is
the time to do it.
Sound, logical, substantial rea
sons for insuring our lives are in:
Vulnerable. As against them there
can be but three reasons for not in
surfing our Observation-Disclosures,
Indifference or selfishness-although
"pure cussedness" ofttimes plays its
part.
The inhabitants of this country
took out eight thousand five hun
dred million dollars worth of new
life insurance last year. That is a
sensible kind of thrift if you select
the right company. The misfortune
is that men are allowed to borrow,
and companies are compelled in
many States to lend on life insur-
ance policies, and at the end the
policy is often an empty shell.
The right kind of an insurance
policy is the best aid to thrift. The
holder knows that he has secured
those that depend upon him and
he can work undisturbed by worry.

American Queens.

THE young King Of Bulgaria,
Boris, who expects to visit US
. in the spring, frankly says he
is not in our matrimonial market.
He didn't say this, however, until
some one suggested he might find
an American queen.
If he comes he will find many mil
lion American queens, but probably
few who would exchange their
crowns of independence for the tin
sci badge of royalty.
The queen business is Furnishing
in America because it rests on
natural respect and affection, prod
ucts of beauty, grace and good sense.
1t requires no political support.
The American queen can lose her
crown only by voluntary action,
which puts it in a class by itself,
sharply differing from the precari-
GUS crowns of the Old World.
Still, we hope King Boris can
come. He will find our queens worth
seeing.

Depreciation Accounts of
Local Utilities
By BILL PRICE.

The Interstate Commerce Commission has heard the
arguments in the contention of the Washington Railway
and Electric Company that it's depreciation accounts
should be under the jurisdiction Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission and not under the Public Utilities
Commission.
While it may be technically true that the Washington
Railway and Electric is interstate carrier of
its lines reaching into Maryland, the fact remains that
it relies for its existence upon its business in the Dis
trct Until very recently it threatened to abandon all
three Of its Maryland lines on the ground that they
were Improbable.
The business of these Maryland lines is infintesmal
in comparison with that done in the District and there
is doubt that Congress intended that the Public U
tiles Commission should exercise full and complete
power over local utilities.
The matter of depreciation is alimportant one in
questions arising before the Utilities Commission Of re-
turns and fares decision by the Interstate Commerce
Commission, taking away from the Public Utilities
Commission the right to fix depreciation and to into
the books of local utility to determine whether it is
complying with rulings on that subject would seriously
cripple the usefulness of the local commission. ..
Depreciation accounts can be made mighty elastic and
susceptible to curious stunts To remove these
counts from the local commission to the Interstate Com
Commission would bring about further entangle
ments in the most tangled street railway situation in
the United States situation which Congress has been
trying to unravel for years, but has done nothing but
threaten and promise.
Senator Ball. OF the Senate Committee on the District
is quoted much in favor of Public Utilities Commits
sion entirely separate and distinct from the District
Commissioners, and which will give all Of its time
to utility problems. This would be one step in the
right direction but the law creating commission
should and probably WILL give that commission what
ever powers the present may be lacking There has
never been disposition to prevent local utilities
ing reasonable returns upon fair valuations of their
properties but the proposed commission should be
so composed that the public will at all times feel that it
haI mi snfar
which are too often absorbed in dividend returns
that in public service. ~
new commission, directed by law to receive and
personally hear even minor complaints, will be ap-
proved by the people of the District. Red tape and
formal replies to welfounded complaints do not beget
public confidence. utilities commission which will
give its whole time to local utility questions seeing and
hearing individuals and groups Of citizens is what is de-
sired is not possible for the commission, pres
ent constituted, to give the time necessary.

HE water supply OF New York
City has become tainted by
. disagreeable flavors caused by
the coil bug" known to science as
Synura.
The Museum of Natural History
has on exhibition an enlarged model
of a colony of these bugs, number
ing about fifty individuals. If one
took the trouble to examine this
colony carefully, one might find that
these fifty bugs were thoroughly or
ganized-a mayor, a board of esti-
mate, a newspaper, stock ex-
change, a cut-rate clothing store and
all that sort Of thing. Who knowsi
Why should not Synura be as in

But why, Oh why, did the Synura
wait to pollute our. drinking water

one could switch off to Pilsner until

Democrats,
Study l92O
HE Harding Administration and
the Republican party are trying

treaty ana alnance Win tne Ihi0e
war-like Powers of the world.
The alliance and treaty are worse
than the League and the Covenant
more hostile to American ideals,
more destructive to American in
terests, more menacing to the peace
and welfare of the United States.
But they make the issue.
What will the Democrats do
meet the issue or dodge 1T
Republican leaders in Washington
say the Democrats will dodge it.
They say the Democrats are too
timid to meet it. They expect the
Democrats to choose for the fall
campaign some inferior issue like
taxes or expenses, and leave the
nation to it's fate.
To timid minds this may seem an
easy way. To little minds it al
ways seems wiser to dodge great
issue than to face it. If the Demo.
cratic party takes no stand on this
question, if its Senators vote for or
against the treaty as their individual
fears and preferences dictate, the
party will commit itself to no ex-
plantations next summer or next fall.
That would be good politics if all
the people were towards. But they
are not, and the scheme will not
work.
The Republican party tried this
trick in 1920. Its Senatorial leaders
were afraid to make a party issue
of the Covenant of the League. Taft,
Hughes and Lodge sought only to
make the fewest possible changes
and still retain enough irreconcil-
ables to ratify the Treaty of
Versailles.
Even at the Chicago convention
the Republican party tried to
shrink from the issue. Cowardice
and evasion we're the order of the
day. But they failed.
The people took the issue into
their own hands. In the campaign,
men who did not face it were re-
jected. Speakers who did not meet
it were brushed aside. Suddenly
the Republican leaders awoke to
the fact that, whether they wanted
it or not, the big issue before the
Nation was the question of Ameri-
canism, the rejection of every form
of entangling alliance, the repudia-
ton of the whole Wilson doctrine
of American dependence and Euro
pean supergovenment. All their
timid strategy had been wasted.
They were driven into the open and
forced to fight.
So it will be in 1922. So also in
1924. The Harding Administration
will try to rally Republicans to the
support Of its treaty and alliance.
The people will face the issue. Will
the Democratic party face it, tool
This is no time for timid counsels.
If the Democratic party fails in this
hour of decision, if it lodges the
issue, if it goes half way hither and
half way thither, if it flies the flag
with one hand and furls it with the
other, the people will push it aside
even as they did in 1920.
The American people are sover-
eign people. They took, the issue
