l. Zine Tribute.

Among the speal tens at the conven
tlon Of the Nation u Council of Trav.
cling statesmen. in session at Cincin
natl, was Hoke Smith. Secretary OF
the Interior in the. second Cleveland
cabinet, for one term Governor Of
Georgia and for ono term a senator in
Congress from that. state-a democrat
of all times. Rising after a greeting
from the President had been read, Mr.
Smith said:
1t is with real A'asure that 1 pay
tribute to President Harding. No Pres.
ident was ever moved by loftier desire
to serve his country and his fellow citi-
zens. His cordial words to you are in
all our people and their interests His
human sympathy Joins with his splendid
interest to serve his country. and, ris-
ine above party politics as patriots. we
should rejoice in his splendid work and
give him support.
This feeling, so well and generously
expressed. probably prevails more
widely than the active politicians are
taking into account. The President,
as all should knuw and confess. Is
giving the country OF his best. and
has been since ente ring upon the du.
ties OF his office. He has been on the
Job night and day. And such a job!
Taxing in any circumstances and at
all times, 1t has been. and still is. par
ticularly taxing as the result of the
war. The man In the White House
today is bearing burden. and bearing
It uncomphiningly, such as rests upon
few official shoulders anywhere in the
world.
Politics, Of course. Is not suspended.
and a warm political campaign is in
progress. But that the President in
many things is rising above party and
serving the country without thought
Of party advantage Is a fact that gives
point and substance to Mfr. Smiths
fine tribute.

Inasmuch as the commission has
announced that it will grant hearing,
those who protest the continued use
Of these cars should prepare them
selves for the argument. General de.
nunciations will not serve. What II
needed is specific facts with relation
to the operation OF the cars. Can they
be run safely and expeditiously? IL II
possible for one man to act AS cashier
and mbtorman simultaneously with
out either risking accidents or slowing
the traffic? Are the cars safe in point
Of public health? II there risk OF IN
jury to passengers In the event Of
panic? Is there warrant for the dis
eliminating use of these cars, through
their introduction on only certain
lines?
These questions should be met with
specific data, to be laid before the
utilities commission when 1t comes
to consider the one.Inan car as q fea-
ture of the Washington traction sys-
tenn. The objectors must remember
that the car is In use. that it has the
Endorsement Of the commission in the

come the presumption in its favor by
a positive showing Of disadvantages

Tie Mudania Armistice.

A corner has been turned in the
near eastern crisis. not the last
corner. bu. still divergence from the
danger that threatened the Immediate
outbreak of war between the Turks
and at least one of the major Euro
pean powers. An armistice agreement
has been signed at Mudania by the
terms of which Thrace will be evacu-
ated by Greece within fifteen days and
occupied by the Turkish civil admins
tration within a month, and the Dar-
danelles will be neutralized. These
terms, it appears, are not satisfactory
TO the Turks. who were disappointed
at the failure of the French repre-
sentatives to support them in their de-
mands for d different settlement. in
cluding the right of military occupa-
tion of Thrace.
The Mudania conference demon
:trated the reunion of France and
England in manner to give assuf-
ance of stronger front against the
Turks The part played by France in
the beginning, during the war between
Greece and the AngOra government
and in the advance of the kemalists
to the straits, was calculated to shake
faith in a unified Christian-power at.
titude toward the Turk in his effort
to regain his old position in Europe.
At one time the entente seemed about
to dissolve upon this issue. England
virtually stood alone In resisting the
westward return of Turkish power,
risking war in isolation from her allies
and prejudicing her prestige in India
through resistance Of Mohamnledan-
ism in Asia Minor and Europe.
Happily France and England have
been brought together again by events
which have caused the government at
Paris to realize the grave risk run in
its display of Turkish partisanship. a
risk involving the possibility OF gen.
eral war. Whatever the i'll feelings
that may have been engendered by the
happenings prior to the Mudania
agreement Franco British unity re-
mains now unbroken, q force for

Safety First!

Suggestions made by Stephen
James, an official OF the highway edu-
cation board, In The Star yesterday
are aimed directly at the practical
question of making the streets less
dangerous to the children of Wash
ington. He proposes that the Commits.
sioners appoint an executive commit
tee. including representatives Of the
schools, police department and large
civic organizations; the formation Of
safety patrols among the older boys
in school to assist younger children in
crossing streets before and after
school hours, and the use OF every
available channel to impart the mes
sage of safety to children and parents.
That such u campaign Is needed in
Washington cannot be questioned.
Children are being killed In this city
at a shocking rate. Whether these
casualties are due to the carelessness
of the children themselves or that Of
drivers is immaterial. The fact re-
mains that juvenile life is being sacri-
feed, dreadful waste.
The Commissioners in their cam.
paign for safety first will have no
difficulty in finding workers in such d
movement. A Safety-First Association
exists here. Practically every citizens
organization has q committee on this
question. There are many In Wash.
ington who have made the matter a
particular study. The school authori.
ties have always been eager to CO.
operate in child-safety measures. The
organizations of motorists are keenly
interested TO prevent accidents. The
citizens civic organizations are
aroused to this community need.
Let this work be started without de-
lay.. 1t will not be accomplished by
any short-term campaign. 1t Is work
that must continue Indefinitely. The
children must be taught against the
habit Of youthful indiscretion and i'm
pulsive action. Parents must be
taught. It will take incessant pub.
licity and preaching and teaching to
make the streets safe by causing all
who use them. drivers and pedes.
trians, old and young. to be careful.
In every schoolroon in this city the
lesson of safety should be regarded as
the most important in all the course
Of instruction. 1t should be taught
daily. ahead Of spelling and writing
and arithmetic. That work. at least.
can be done regardless Of any civic
organization or oflcial action IN form.

Business and the Stump.

Mr.. Hoover is to take the stump.
Next week he will visit Ohio and
Michigan. His health prevents d
longer itinerary.
In Ohio .he democrats are making
a most earnest drive. If possible they
want to defeat the President in his
home state. Such an achievement
would have considerable effect even
If they failed to win the Congress.
In Michigan they are stressing what
they call Newberryism and calculat.

1arly fierce senatorial primary cam
paign the republicans conducted.
Their big guns. domestic and import
ed. are trained on the republican can
didate. Mr.. Townsend, who is standing
for reelection.
Mr.. Hoover is neither a politician
nor an orator, but a man Of business,
with an unusually wide experience and
a worldwide fame: and it so happens
that the foremost questions in the
present campaign are Of q business
character. How to put business firmly
on its feet again, stabilize it and get
results that will ease the anxieties of
the people Of the country is the prob
lem in hand.
That Mr.. Hoover has ideas about
solving this problem of interest and
value out Of the ordinary is in the ma.
ture of things, and that his partv
should get the full benefit Of them in
the present appeal to the people is
plain enough. Hence this stumping
tour may be followed by others in the
four weeks that remain Of q most i'm.
