Start the Coal Commission
CFrom the New York Herald.)

President Harding does well to ad-
here to his plan OF commission &c
go thoroughly into all the condi-
lions OF the soft coal industry, strike
or no strike. In the bigger point OF
view finch takes in the future and
weighs the country's continuous
stake in its fuel supply this is far
more important than even the i'm

investigators. therefore. should be
commissioned to their task, whether
mines that are now inactive remain
shut down indefinitely or resume OPP
creations at once.
No matter how fortunate may be

more than momentary labor peace

wage earnings for the miners while
there are two men trying to make a

THE SAME OLD HYPHEN.
From the New York Tribune.


From the New York Tribune.
The German-American Citizens
League is endeavorlng TO introduce
the hyphen into American politics
again. 1t calls upon the United
States government to use its best
efforts to have the Versailles treaty
revised, to effect the immediate
withdrawal of colored troops from
the Rhine and to consult with the
Allies on how to end the occupation
of German soil at the earliest pos
sible moment. 1t also demands an
American observer at the neutral
court of inquiry into the war guilt.
1t protests against America be-
coming a party to the fraudulent
loans of the Allies based directly or
indirectly upon the Versailles
treaty" and it commends the Ad-
ministration for taking the first step
to correct the iniquities" committed
by the Alien Property Custodian.
Why not be frank? Each and
every one of these proposals is in
the interest of Germany and the
Germans. In framing them the pro-
posers manifestly thought only OF
Germany. Stripped of their YER
blage. they call upon the American
government to relieve Germany of
the penalties and discomforts of a
war that she began and lost. They
seek to make the United States
partner in Germany's endeavOrs TO
escape the consequences of her acts.
That Germans as Germans have a
right 10 protest against these things
will not be denied however unwise
and unfair they may be in so doing.
But when Germans camouflaged as
endeavor to drag their
quarrels into American politics and
call upon the American government
10 condemn its allies in the interest
Of its former enemy they abuse the
hospitality of this country and in
iure the standing of a large body |
Of American citizens.
The war showed the danger of |
hyphenism. Evidently it did not |
end it. When any group of Ameri-
IAN voters make it their primary |
business to promote the interest of
an alien country they are false to
America and seek to disturb our ma

SELLING OUT THE RUSSIANS
! the New York Trlbune.

From the New York Tribune.
The best thing that can be said
of the Hague conference. now hap
PLY no more, is that it furnishes a
guiding example of what not to do
in the future. Like it's Genoa pred
ecessor, 1t was conceived in hypoc-
risy, carried on in false pretence
and collapsed in palpable fraud. Not
in a thousand such gatherings is
there a grain of benefit to the world.
The conference was advertised as
economic. But it was singularly
non-economic. It's declared object
was TO lay the foundation of mutu-
ally beneficial trade with Russia, but
its program looked to the perpetu-
alton OF conditions which made
trade with Russia impossible. For
four years Russia has had imposed
on her by force a system which has
smothered the ability Of her people
either TO sell or to buy. Yet not a
word was said at The Hague looking
to removing the pressure on the
Russian people. The plan was TO
lend money to the wreckers of Rus
STA and thus enable them TO con-
tinue their wrecking business.
What was sought to be done, al
though CARRIED in fine phrases, was
in essence monstrously immoral I'll
was nothing other than that the
civilized world should give a new
club to the Russian tyranny. The
abandonment Of the Russian people
was to be grossly heartless. Just as
century ago traders with the Bar
barry Coast said it was no concern OF
theirs how the pashas used their
power-Jthat the tribute money paid
to them could be used 10 hire dun
geon keepers-so now some men OF
business. provided they get profits,
care not to what misery the Russian
people are reduced. Such are eager
TO exploit Russia and are Indifferent
to what happens to the victims of
the exploitation. The Litvinof pro-
posals are nothing more than that
the Soviet government is willing TO
go halves with big concession
seekers.
To another thing the Hague con-
ferees were entirely blind-namely
that the restoration of Russia is es-
sentially a domestic and not an in
ternational problem. All we can do
Is 10 assist the Russian people to
a civilized government.
The main work the Russians must
DO themselves. But though much
was said at The Hague OF the rights
Of foreigners in Russia not one word
was uttered about the rights Of the
Russians themselves. The confer
,nce asked for guarantees for aliens
hat they did not even hint that
Russians should enjoy.

Not Too Anxious.
The women OF Rapa are not at
all anxious TO marry the men OF
their own race, says Or Stokes
as, once they are married, they
become little more than slaves.
They have no hold on or control
over their husbands, who despite
the fact that each man has only
one official wife, never forget that
each OF them has three other pos
sible candidates for the official
wife'a position. A double standard
prevails in Rapa, too, for 81 the Of
flCial wife attempts 10 enjoy the
same privileges that her husband

The people OF Rapa--and this

recently published articles anent

there several white beach comb
crs' have taken up headquarters
on Rapa, much to the delight OF
the native women. Needless TO
remark Rapa Ia likely TO become

new paradise.
Women Do Work.
Although all the agricultural
work and preparation OF food is
done by the women, DR.. Stokes
says that the stories that have
been circulated OF the actual feed

are true only In one respect--that
