one of the defects of the jury system
Verdicts against evidence in civil
cases can be set aside. There is no
profit in holding up to public scorn
the men who, in the judges opinion,
made justice mscarry, assuming
that they did so honestly. 1t is
equally profitless, Of course, for the
berated jury to reply in kind. Good
temper is needed all around.
New-York tribune., 1922-03-16
Be Reasonable, MIR. Mayor

1t must be as clear to Mr.. Hvlan
as 1t is to any other citizen that the
traction tangle will never be ended
till all those in authority come to
some sort of working agreement.
Mr.. Hylan has said nothing about
subway conditions that is not true.
They are not only bad; they are in
tolerable. If the Interborough had
enough rolling stock to run one con-
tinuous train through its tubes and
over its viaducts during tie rush
hours its cars would still be crowded.
The six million residents of New
York must perforce travel on tran
sit system barely capable of trans
porting population Of three mil
lion. Nothing in the world but more
subways can supply any relief.
Mr.. Hylan, a lawyer and a former
judge, knows that ours is a govern
ment of laws. He Knows that a
statute passed by the state Legis-
lature and approved by the highest
court in the state is binding upon
him as a public servant. Such q
statute created the Transit Commits
sion, which is charged with the man
agement and Improvement Of the
subway system.
1t is because he violently seeks to
block every effort Of the commission
to carry out the mandate of the
Legislature that it now seeks an
amendment removing him altogether
from any authority in transit mat
ters. 1t has discovered that it is
absolutely impossible for it to carry
out its program as rapidly as is nee
essary if it is to be continually ham
pered by his interference
The commission has informed Mr..
Hylan that it means to maintain a
| five-cent fare-which is also his
avowed purpose. 1t has submitted
to him plan by which the fve-cent
fare may be maintained. Its pur-
pose to extend the subway system is
exactly the purpose that he pro-
| fesses.
Yet he continues to object, to COM
plain and to spend thousands of dol
lars of the taxpayers money in a
futile fight against the commission
in the courts.
Mr.. Hylan must know that the
members of the commission are not
corrupt or to be corrupted. He
must know, whether he admits it or
not. that they are not the paid tools
Of the Interborough interests or any
other interests. He has lived too
long among them really to suspect
them of any purpose but to serve the
people. He must know that their
public spirit is at least as great as
his own.
If Mr.. Hylan would meet these
men fairly--compare purposes and
ideas about subway extension-he
would do much to bring about the
relief of the people who elected him
Mayor.
His would be the credit for the
solution of the problem as much as il
would be the Transit Commission S
He would stand a far better chance
of carrying out, during his term Of
Office, his prediction promise to put
an end to the traction tangle.
The commission has frankly re-
piled to every charge Mr.. Hylan has
made against it. 1t has gone or
record as standing for the same ulti-
mate objects that he stands for
more subways, better service ano
a five-cent fare. A reasonable
straightforward attitude on his par,
would gain him far more glory thar
continued and frutless opposition
If he will only adopt It he will make
his administration memorable for al
least one SDlendid pnhlic service

chaste and dustredolent twilight of the

every bit of it had gone with the SHOWS

$40 to boot couldn't have induced us to
part with it,
Art came in serial form in those
| days. Sometimes it took a half dozen
pictures to tell the story. The thrill
they gave you as you tiptoed about in
the dusk Of the forbidden parlor from
frame to frame was something David
Wark Griffith would give millions to
recapture.

DRobinson crusoe0

A wise writer once said: "If you
want to do something worth while in
the world, please the children"
Universal has done just this in Civ
ing to the screen "The Adventures of
Robinson Crusoe," which starts at the
Lyrice theatre Tuesday. There is
scarcely boy or girl in The world who
has not read and been thrilled by the
I life OF the ventaresome Defoe hero.
They may have been deprived the ac-
lvantag of a common school education,
but by some hook or crook you can
count on them being familiar with
Crusoe, whether they are white yellow
red or black.
In the eyes Of children Crusoe for
many years has held the same position
as the heroes of history have with but
one difference-he is loved even more.
Little Johnny may not be sure when
Columbus discovered America, but you
may count on him knowing in chron-
illogical order the adventures Of Rob-
inson Crusoe.
