Most of the applicants pass the exami-

popular ones, where only about 35 per cent
OF the applicants in this district fail to pass

nations are practically standard with the

OUR FORGOTTEN SOLDIERS

TOMORROW President Harding will de =
J. liver a formal address to q convention
of army and navy surgeons who are gem
orally responsible for the work that is being
done for sick and disabled American soldiers
Of the World War
The failure of the governmental agencies
10 deal humanely and efficiently with these
youthful veterans has become something
more than a national scandal. 1t will be
more than a national disgrace il there Is no
sxagEeration in the assertions Of various
American Legion posts that an organized
system Of profiteering has been established
at the expense of the small army of men
Who were returned to this country with dis
abilities Of a sort that should have moved
the people and the Government OF the
United States to provide at any cost. the
most thoughtful care which medical science
makes possible.
The Government has not lived up to he
promises which it made to the youth of the
land when the draft was instituted. II
provided the money There Is no obvious
lack of funds. Such deficiencies as are ap-
parent in the system of care instituted for
helpless or convalescent veterans are def
eaencies of science-and of the heart The
method OF farming out" sick soldiers TO
ambitious private hospitals has been q
wretched failure in most instances There
IL evidence to indicate that promoters have
bsen finding rich and even extortionate
profits in contract schemes devised 10 pro-
vide food for disabled men, even in hos
pitsls controlled by the Government itself.
Part of the general confusion is due to
the nnture Of shell shock, from which many
st the soldiers suffer. and to the inability
NJ physicians to deal with it efficiently or
to know In advance the nature Of the treat =
ment likely TO be most effective. But the
abuses of which the Legion complains seem
10 extend in one form or another 10 almost
all the institutions in which returned
soldiers are being treated.
Mr.. Harding is a man Of kindly heart
u Is too much to expect that he can Indi-
cate clear way out of all the difficulties
which surround the doctors who have charge
1t the soldier sick, But he can at least ex-
press the disappointment Of the country, Its
sense Of sorrow and shame, in such a way
rs 70 stimulate in Congress a desire to see
that justice and little more than justice is
done for the men who were returned sick Or
wounded from the war.

A RICH MAN FOR BERLIN

A LANSON Il. HOUGHTON. Of Corning.
~ y. Y, who 1t Is intimated is to be
appointed as Ambassador to Germany. be-
longs to that class from which 1t has been
customary TO select our representatives. In
Berlin.
Mr. Houghton is a rich manufacturer with
n liberal education. He was graduated from
Harvard University and took post graduate
work in the universities OF Berlin, Goettin-
gen and Paris. lie has been n frequent
visitor TO Germany and he doubtless knows
the German language. lie has had no diplo-
matte experience. it is true. Neither had
James w. Gerard. whom President Wilson
sent TO Berlin. And John 6. \. l.ei'hman.
who preceded Mr.. Gerard. got all his dipl"-
matte training as president Of the Carnegie
Steel Company before he served his ap-
premiership at ConstantnOplc. David j,
Hill was q college president who tnoh up
diplomacy as an avocNtion, and thnr!e-
magne Tower got his training in diplomacy
in Vienna before he was sent TO Berlin.
Mr.. Tower and Mr.. Leishman were origi-
nally taken out of private life.
We have few trained diplomatists and
il Is seldom that any of them are sent to the
principal posts Mr.. Ilerrick, who now
represents us in Paris, learned diplomacy
while practiclng It., and Colonel Harvey in
London may learn it before he serves out
his term He had no previous experience
and indeed, he was not noted for diplomatic
discretion in private life.
The diplomatic service has not been taken
as seriously az 1t should have been in re-
cent years. Colonel Roosevelt in the early
days of his presidency regarded It as
means of comforting distinguished honor on
worthy Republicans. But the war demon
strated to every one who had any dealings
with Europe that the presence of capable
men In the foreign capitals was of the first
Importance II American interests were to be
protected. And Walter II. Page, in Lon
don. fulfilled the functions of an Ambassador
with such skill that he Is likely to be long
remembered as one of the most capable
diplomatists that our system has produced.
Mr.. Houghton will have 10 justify his
appointment as IN Ambassador by the way
in which he conducts himself after he gets

the use of motorcars in the busiest areas
OF the city, where, OF course, the need for
automobiles is greatest. Sooner or later
business men generally in the shopping,
hotel and theatre districts will begin TO feel
an unwholesome reaction upon the present
antiparking rules Those who were accus-
toned to use the motorcar as q daily con-
venience have had to go back to the street
cars Meanwhile, the authorities seem
content to let bad enough alone. Difficult
decisions have been postponed again, even
II no constructive plan has been formulated
or even considered to meet a definite public
need.
In the interest Of the public and business
and even in justice to the motor trades the
Administration and City Council should at
once enlist the services of a commission of
competent engineers with view to re-
moving such restrictions as make the eff

Somebody has discovered synura in the
chief OF New York's non alcoholic drinks,
and something akin TO CONSERVATION has
resulted, although the experts are buSly
engaged in disarming popular fears
But not even dread names Of mystery are
employed by Or. Martin, State Commits
sioner Of Health, in his unqualified ndorse-
ment OF Philadelphia water. The algae
which he specifies are only a sort of me
dicinal weeds contributing occasionally an
unpleasant taste or odor, but quite harm
less,
Not a single recent case Of typhoid fever
has been traced to properties of the local
water supply. Like virtue itself Philadel-
phia water Is not primarily spectacular
in its appeal.
In a sense IL is the Cinderella Of potlons.
Outlanders have even found It unpalatabIe.
But It is good, II ones thirst be constltu. d..
tional.

THE AUTHENTIC OPEN DOOR

OPERATION of the open door by arbi-
~ tral machinery is the striking novelty
Of Mr.. Hughes plan for the preservation
Of equal opportunity in China. This feature
Of the program excludes II from the sphere
of merely suave generalizations and is char
scteristic Of the specific methods which the
Secretary Of State has consistently intro
dueed into diplomacy.
The proposed tribunal, empowered to pass
upon concessions, monopolies, trade agree
msrts or preferences deemed inconsistent
with open door principles, is named the
Board OF Reference, and, IL the recommen-
datons are adopted, 10 to be formed by the
special conference which Is to revise Chinese
customs. The powers Of the judicial body
are 70 be advisory rather thGn mandatory.
They are, however. Of sufficient breadth to
cover questions Of past concessions and are
thus retroactive.
Il vas this aspect Of the scheme which
startled those delegates of tho Arms Confer
sncs who have murmured the conventional
stsrss In principle" to the opening clauses
Il the resolutions involving pledges of fair
play and respect for one another's interests
and those of China. Considerable discus
don on the advisability OF rakins old scan
&ais is in sight.
Regarded strictly from the ethical stand
point, the Hughes proposal is not open to
suspicion. fIt Is frank, explicit, practical

than thou attitude, American public sentl-
nent may be said to be heartily behind so
vigorous a check to intrigue and the war
breeding rush for trade rights in the Ear
East
The resolutions cannot be construed as n
depressant upon legitimate commercialisin:
They point the way to the establishment Of
a new order in China beneficial alike to that
immense nation and to the agencies Of de-
velopment originating without her frontiers
II notifications of the stabiizing appa-
ratus should be introduced. It IL sincerely
to be hoped they will be insufficient to twist
It out of shape or to deprive the Reference
Board of outlined functions.
