Anti-Erotic
From Broom)

From BrOon,)
HOLD me so and press my head
Close to your shoulder with q gentle
hand;
And do not wonder that this mild caress
Dearer to me than all your passion is.
For passion one can have from many
men,
When a woman flames to the new life cf
spring,
Men read the ardor and the dreaming in
her eyes
As tributes to them.elves-and burn
to her.
But to be cherished as child Is
cherished,
To be held as something incredibly
This is like the delicate hopes Of child
hood,
Like waking from December into the
sweet air Of May.

The March on Albany

Albany is separated from New
York by distance of 100 miles.
Part Of the way is hilly going. Also.
at this time of the year the roads are
deep with snow. 1t would be just
as well, therefore, for the people to
be sure that they really want mu-
nicipal bus lines before they mo-
bilize for the march on Albany to
which Mayor Hylan now cxhorts
them.
Mr.. Whalcn, Commissioner of
Plant and Structures, desires that
fifteen surface lines be scrapped and
that the city issue 100000 in
bonds for the purpose Of establish
ing 2O1 bus lines. 1t is for the pur-
pose Of cocrcing the Legislature to
authorize this bond issue that the
Hylan parade is to be organized
Now we have Mr.. Whalen's word
that he is traction expert, and
that he knows all that there is to be
known about bus lines. This being
the case, it seems surprising that he
does not take the public, who must
pay for the bus lines, into his conf
dencc. 1t ought to be easy for him
to show by facts and figures that the
bus lines will pay. These facts and
figures. Of course. are in his posses
sion. He has studied The subject
deeply for at least a year. He has
operated a few bus lines expert
mentally.
These experimental lines have
not produced any profit, to be sure.
but Mr.. Whelan says he can explain
that. However, he does not explain
it. He gives no figures; he makes
no estimate. He expects the people
to be dashed into such fervor Of
enthusiasm for bus lines that they
will brave zero weather to march on

The Live Sermon
Chaplain Wasson Would Have
Preachers Follow Paul's EXAMPLE

10 the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Why do so many people drift
away from the Church? We arc al
fam'l'ar with the many learned and
!aborcd answers to this question, but
have thought it worth while to find
out how the average people coming to
me tor welfare service and religious
be'p answer it. or course, they don't
All agree, but. curiously enough. Some
OF them take the same view rs that Of
country clergyman in the last issue
OF "Thc Churchman," who saya that
'ne clergy arc self-centered, giving
most Of their thought to the trivalities
of their profession.
Many have told me that the clergy
spend too much Of their time intcrpret-
ing the minuti@ of Bible texts, instead
OF human life and its problems. "There
was st. Paul" said one man to me re
Gently. When he decided to preach
that sermon on Mars Hil did he hunt
up text and spend ten or fifteen min
utes telling how the translation didn't
give just the right shade Of meaning
He did not. He got his inspiration as
ne was walking along the street and
saw the inscription to the unknown
God. He took topic, not text, and
1--we topic ct that. and. therefore. he
preached q live sermon and not dead
literary essay. What you parsons
should do is to give up text expound
ing"
Two eminent English ecclesiastics.
Bishop Gore and Dean Rashdall. have
been having doctrinal controversy.
and they have both drawn their arcu-
ments from the tenuous metaphysical
theories OF Christian Greek THEOLOGY.
IN which the issues Of life and death
hang on the supposed meaning Of such
words as "hypostas and persona. ."
words quite foreign to the Christian
consciousness of to-day. The school
men loved to discuss this abstruse
metaphysic in the days when plain men
fought over it as they met in the mar
ket place But such arguments have
no interest for modern men. and a rap
idly increasing number of the clergy
to-day realize the fact.

The Shantung Settlement

he wrong done to China in the
Shantunc article Of the Versailles
Treaty uas one Of The things which
made the Washington conference
necessary. Tho righting OF this
wrong will be counted among the
most admirable achievements Of the
Harding Hughes diplomacy. The
settlement was reached at Washing
ton by direct negotiation between
Japan and China. But it was pro-
noted by work done inside the con-
ference and by the good Offices out
side it OF the President, Mr.. Hughes
and Mr.. Balfour.
Japan's acquisition Of Germany's
Shangtung leaschold and economic
rights challenge the moral sense of
the world. China was entitled to
resume possession in case Ger
man5s privileges we're surrendered.
China was neutral when Japan OK
PEELED the Geimans and an Allied
belligcrcnt when Japan's claim to
the German succession was ratified.
The peace conference set the bad
example OF allowing one of the AL
lied powers to compensate itself, not
at the expense of the enemy, but at
;thc expense Of neutral, which sub
sequcntly joined the Allies.
Japan had compelled China by a
threat of war to consent to any dis
position of German rights in Shan
tung which the peace conference
might make. She had also taken the
precaution TO obtain British, French
and Italian approval Of her designs.
These things happened before the
United States declared war against
Germany. AT Paris Mr.. Wilson was
reluctant to become a party to so
offensive a bargain. He yielded,
however, because he was afraid that
Japan wouldn't subscribe to the
league covenant at any smaller
price.
Mr.. Lansing told the Senate For
eign Relations Committee in 1919
that the Presidents sacrifice was un-
necessary. Probably it was. This
country, at any rate, has never been
willing to approve the Shantung
transfer. The Senate adopted a res
ervation refusing assent to it. And
in the face Of American protest,
backed by Chinese boycott Of Jap
anese goods, and by widespread dis
appreciation even in Europe, Japan
gradually reached the conclusion
that Okuna's aggressive diplomacy
had overreached itself.
The Japanese will now relinquish
all the German leases and rights, ex-
cept for temporary representation in
the management Of the Shantung
Railroad International equity and
decency have been vindicated. By
the pressure Of reason and open
argument President Harding has
been able to repair one of the most
irritating blunders into which the
Wilson diplomacy fell.

The Football Bogey

The concern Of a number of col
! legc presidents lest football under
mine scholarship seems to have the
nature of false alarm. Young men
get more from college than what
they find in books. They learn
to meet other youths on their own
terms, to give and take, and keep
their teInpers, all Of which are a
necessary part Of education.
Manly boys will take no harm
from indulging in manly sport, even
if their marks may not be as high
as those of some Of the "grinds. :"
Latin and Greek and the differental
calculus and synthetic philosophy
are all good mental discipline, but
something else is needed by the lad
who has to wiring a living from a
world conta lning all sorts and man
ner Of men,
In the day that this country need
ed the services of husky young citi-
zens college men responded almost
to man. Those with athletic train
ing were best fitted for the job they
had to do.
A college is not, Of course foot
ball field with few classrooms on
its 1anks, but it is an institution to
train men in everything that they
will subsequently need. There is
little danger that their muscles will
be developed at the sacrifice Of their
brains. The standard of scholarship
that must be attained before man
is permitted to take part in athletics
is sufficient guaranty that the col
leges will not degenerate into glori-
fed training quarters.

TODAY
I found the tip-top of the EARTH
The way
Is steep and green.
From the top
All things are seen,--
Every stream and sheep and tres,
Every cloud and flower and bee.
Way beyond all these you see
The sky go leaning gently over
To touch field of honey clover,
And just where the sky bends,
Well, that's where the earth ends!

The Lincoln Comparison
he Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: | certainly do not agree with
the writer of "A Protest" regarding the
comparison of ex-President Wilson with
Abraham Lincoln. Mr.. Wilson, to my
mind, is just as surely martyr as Lin
coin, bounded nearly unto death by GER
tain of his own countrymen. Ex-Presi-
dent Wilson, to my mind, stands head
and shoulders above all others in Amer
ican history (bar none). May America
not wait until his death to pay him
homage. JOSIAH +. DUNN.

Genoa's Bad Start

The proposed Genoa economic con-

effect was an explosion in the
French Chamber which blow .Aris-

He has long advocated that it is per
missible, even meritorious, to make
false promises.
If there WAS likelihood Of repay
ment Of the sums the French people
have invested in Russian railroads
and industries, France would be the
first TO agitate for q settlement. In
her present stats she would find
$4,000, 100000 handy to rid herself
Of an emptiness of pocket which is
due to the successful vancouver of
Gern,arNsto to dodge German debts.
But France is too sophisticated TO
believe in self -jollying. She can't
see that Russia has any serious pur-
pose Of paying or discover any in-
tent to make her pay.
Suppose tho conference were held

New-York tribune., 1922-01-29

Of the teachers in the primary schools
are products Of the intermediate
schools and have had comparatively
little experience in teaching, so that
hand in hand with the education of the
children has gone the effort to train
and build up competent teaching
force
New-York tribune., 1922-01-29

The Filipinos are deeply interested
in public education. Their enthusiasm.
their keenness to secure education for
their children, is beyond praise. The
progre ssive development Of the school
system has been phenomenal. Indeed
enthusiasm has at times outrun pru-
dence, and expansion has taken place
so rapidly that efficiency has not been
able to keep pace. However, such mis-
takes as have been made have resulted d
from enthusiasm in a noble cause.-the
education Of the youth Of tn, islands
The following gives an idea of the
progress in this departments:
Annual enrolment Of public schools
1898 1909. 1907. 1914. 1920
Pupils 1904 200 900 47s s7s Gal oso s35 s7s
Amerc
teachers. s 746 s5s s4l als
ers ........l.su s.rl :Ms 1884 2ossl
.Estlmated
In 1920 the public owned 4,Oo3 and
rented 1,163 school buildings.
The total expenditures for admins
tration and instruction were about
S6,869. .65450 for 1920. The university
had, in 1920, an enrolment of 4,13o,
with 4 teaching force Of 379 professors
and assistants. The cost Of operation
was $755, ,926.57.
An Excellent Showing
AS before stated, the self-sacrihce Of
the parents has been great. They have
willingly deprived themselves of many
necessities in order that they might
aid in the voluntary building Of schools
and properly equip their children for
school attendance. The percentage Of
the population in the schools is about
10 per cent, an excellent showing for a
new government (The percentage for
the United States for 1918 was 2o.13.)
The amount spent for each pupil a
year $3.50 (the United States annual
expenditure is $36.62). The amount
per capita for the entire population of
the Philippine Islands is So cents.
One of the most difficult problems
has been to secure efficient teachers
No class of men and women should be
selected with more care, for they are
charged not only with the routine edu-
cation of the children, but inevitably
have great influence in forming their
ideas of citizenship obligation, respect
for the law and the authorities, and as
these teachers do their work to-day 80
will tho Philippine people Of tomorrow
be. Too much care cannot be exercised
in their selection, for only men and
women Of capacity can teach children
to think straight and to apply their
minds to the problems Of life intclIi-
gently.
The exceedingly rapid expansion Of
the school system has made it difficult
to secure a sufficient number Of we'll
trained teachers. The great ma]orit,
