To the Editor. The Washington Herald;
Life. Death, for Man is in our hand 3,
A thousand years of peace or war;
o. men today in many lands,
This duty lies at each ones door
Wild Mars alarm
We can disarm,
And turn mankind to safe employ
Flaming through earth abiding joy.
We can beat spears to pruning
hooks.
And into plowshares beat the
swords.
Change front OF foes to friendly
looks,
Change chains OF iron to silken
cords.
And teach no more
To waste the store
or earth's kind bounty and its
showers,
Nor trample into dust its flowers.
Since God created by His word
All things that are on land and
sea,
Mems hearts were never deeper
stirred
BY certain good or misery;
If We shall fail.
Nought can avail:
We weight the balance of the years
With all mems veal or all mems
tears.

THE Washington Railway and Electric COM
pany as a corporation to possess a
genius for putting itself the wrong side of an
argument The most recent cxempli6cation of
this gaucherie was its opposition to the issuance of
permit to the Washington Rapid Transit Com
pany for establishing motor bus line from Grant
Circle around the Soldiers. Home grounds to
Rhode Island avenue and North Capitol street.
Despite this attempted obstruction the Public
Utilities Commission very rightly authorized the
project and this latest branch of a convenient
service will be in operation as soon as the requisite
conveyances have been secured
l. is recalled that when the bus lines I'D
Sixteenth street from Eighth street and Pennsyl-
vana avenue and Potomac Park were naugurated
an official of the Washington Railway and Electric
Company belittled the plan, declaring that the
machines would be imperative when snow fell
As all remember there was quite considerable
snow on the streets around January 20. So much,
in fact that both car lines were entirely de-
moralized The busses kept running.
Watching the development and popularity of
the Washington Rapid Transit Company (from
ten BUSES the fleet has grown to forty in one
year and more ordercd), the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company became converted and
soug..t permission to institute automobile transit
branch across Park road from the end of the
Mount Pleasant line to Georgia This has
been granted. Opposition to the Grant Circle line
of the transit corporation was based upon about
the objection entered against the ephemeral
jitneys of 1917 the paraeling of already estab-
lshed route. Yet the Georgia avenue car line is
at most places. several blocks distant FROM the
bus route and the latter will prove a great con-
vene1ce to residents of the Park View and Pet
worth districts.
The motor bus has proved itself almost ndis-
pensablc in New York and has strongly established
itself in Washington, a city peculiar in possessing
large sections unperced by car lines. 1t ill becomes
a corporation which should be dedicated to public
service and already is carrying as many passen-
gers at peak load hours it can possibly handle
to grudge the enlargement of transportation
system which could hope to rival the tram,
and tends to relieve a rush-hour jam which has
been to one more perplexing than the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Company itself.

Suggests New Weapon Law
To the Editor. rhe Washington Her.Id:

To the Editor, The Washington Herald:
Your editorial on The McHenry
Case" prompts me TO write the fol-
lowing in regsId to enacting a law to
prohibit the carrying Of concealed
weapons. The laws now in force
prevent only the law-abiding citizens
from carrying a means of protection.
which OF course. at the same time
makes ii easier for the highwaymen.
Now the proposition I have in mind
Is this: Either pass a law TO round
UP everybody and take their pistols
from them. or else permit only those
who can produce a photograph and
permit from a sanity board, Endorsed
by good citizens that have known
him for at least three years to carry
concealed weapons. Some will say.
il can't he done. ] think il can.
After passing such a law. give the
public a reasonable length of time.
say trirty days. to become acquainted
with the law. Then authorize every
officer to search without warning.
No man with a permit TO carry
should object to a search when he
knows such action means his safety.
Many man nas looked through a
hanRman's moose just because the
pistol was so handy il worked ahead
OF reason. On several occasions
might have used one for protection.
had it been handy. and before the
eyes of the law would have looked
justified. Just recently while passing
one OF those pistol emporiums 1
noticed a tough looking youngster.
who was looking very longingly at
the display. and ] suppose. IL he isn't
now the proud possessor of one or
more OF the deadliest. then it's only
because he was short OF the price.
This McHenry case shows us very
plainly that there must be a proven
tation law enacted to protect us from
an element Of people too sane for
asylums or febleminded institutions,
but who from a lack of reasoning at
all times or governing OF temper. are
unht to be trusted to run at large

6 Otis ill wind that blows nobody good.
i The worldwide industrial stagnation

6 (TIS an ill wind that blows nobody good. !"
i The worldwide industrial stagnation,
contributed to in no small degree by the terrific
burden OF after-war taxes, will not be unmiti-
gated evil if it forces the nations of the world to
adopt sound methods of taxation.
In the United States Congress and the lcgs-
latures still cropping for a solution. "All the
traffic will bear" and "thc most feathers with the
least squawking' up, for the most part the
accepted principles of taxation, and dominant
group has yet agreed upon any definite program,
under such loose principles"
o, One group has conducted widespread cam
paign for some form of sales tax. Others pin
their faith to income end inheritance taxes. Some
urge direct taxation, for the sake of honesty;
others indirect taxation for the sake of expedency.
minor group claiming adherence OF some half
hundred Representatives and half dozen more
Senators, is sponsoring bill in Congress for a
tax of per cent natural resources with an
exemption of $4,000 to exclude farmers and other
small property owners), which they claim would
yield a revenue of SI,ooo,ooo.ooo annually, and
would relieve productive industry to that extent;
they say these natural resources pay no direct
taxes to the Federal government and less than
one-tenth of the total indirectly, although equal in
value to all other forms of property combined.
Uncle Sans total tax bill, Federal, State and
local. aggregates between $7ooo,ooo,ooo and $780,,
100000 annually, more than $500 per average
family of FIVE By the time it reaches the ultimate
consumer" it probably amounts to several times
that figure, as is true of all Original" costs of
production and distribution.
Against this burden of and the ordinary
OF government stands the productive capacity
of the nation, greatly increased during the war,
and that deAation is practically accom-
plished fact. revival of prosperity may be
expected. A bumper crop next fall would hasten
economic recovery. The darkest cloud is chaotic
conditions in other parts of the world Owing to
the interdependence of nations in the modern
scheme OF things America must suffer to some
degree until the suHerings of other peoples are
relieved
Meanwhile it is the duty OF statesmen and
citizens to study taxation, and agree, so far as
possible. upon principle that will tighten the
burden industry in all lines

natural prodigaty bloomed when it had half a
chance.
No enjoys these anecdotes more than the
Scotch themselves. In fact VIC hazard the guess
that they start most OF them in circulation The
late ]. y. Adam was storehouse OF such tales
This is he especially enjoyed: Donald went
into little tavern-grocery kept by Dugald, and
bought thripence loaf of bread. Dugald wrapped
il up and pushed it over the counter. Donald

obgingly complied Donald drank his gin and
started for the door. "Here," said Dugaid, I'VE ha
no paid for the dram" did ma gle ye the
bread for the dram?" demanded Donald. Eyes. .
said Dugad. "but we didna pay for that "And
didna- have it." answered Donald, and left.
Dugalu is still figuring it outl"
Here is story which indicates that the alleged
national characteristic may be turned, in surgical
way. to scientific account. Scotchman had the
misfortune to have three Of his fingers cut off by
machine He tried in vain to reunitc them to
his hand, when by accident a penny fell out Of
his vest pocket and immediately all three fingers
grew into place. This may. Of course. be legend;
but what vista Of surgical advantages it opens up.
AS neighborng Gael once said, "We don't
believe than half OF the lies are true" The
generosity of the Scotch is proved by their readi-
ness to give big sums to big causes.
No sacrifice is too great for Scottish generosity
when something really worth while is at stake.
And here is remarkable fact-Scotchmen
are among the most determined and liberal bid
ders at auctions. Here the combative quality
which has made the Scotch Of the greatest
soldierly races of the world, and the competitive
efficiency which has enabled them to win their
way to such typical success in business and indus
try, are both brought into action. When Scot
bids against another, the auctioneer rejoices for
he knows that whichever of the two the article is
knocked down to, it will have brought good
price.-Buffao Evening Times.

To the Editor, The Washington Herald: =
There are two kinds of aflmer.s
the imaginary and the real. II Is
just as scientific to know that an
individual is not sick. though he
may think he is. as It is to know
that he is really and truly sick from
some potent cause. Any good doctor
Knows that an imaginary remedy
will cure an imaginary disease. The
pity Is that "quacks' and people
generally cannot determine when a
complaint is real-due to some in
lection or other physical cause--or
a fancy in the mind of the individual
:. no rather enjoys having his imae-
mary ailment treated-they are
rarely ever cured-in some miracu-
lous way.
If laymen are to get real
knowledge of disease and its treat
ment from newspapers. as H. Bon
nell suggests, then they should look
to others than those who belittle
medical science and show plainly
their lack of knowledge. Any good
doctor. whether he is absolutely
sure Of the specific nature of the
case or not. can make a working
diagnosis and at least protect his
patient and help him to fight his
battle as best he can. But the con-
ditions are rare in which a skilled
physician cannot make a positive
diagnosis-and il the disease is
diphtheria, antitoxin will cure nine
cases out of ten. and more. IL the
treatment is given early in the case.
One of the greatest blessings that
has been conferred on humanity is
the prevention of smallpox by vac
cination. That typhoid fever can

lutely in the great war. Qufnine
