Ccrtnin Conditions

WHILE Senator William e. Borah, OF
w Idaho. is not usually reckoned as
belonging to the coterie of best minds"
upon whom the President is wont to rely
for counsel. nevertheless, in tho public es-
Innate, he easily ranks as one OF tho ablest,
most consistent, and most courageous men
in public life today. In dealing with public
questions he hews to the line. so to speak,
and lets the chips fall where they may.
In a carefully prepared statement for the
Baltimore sun, he discusses with his accus-
toned frankncss the question of Americas
duty TO Europe in the economic and finan-
cial crisis ii now faces. His statement, COM
ing at Il time when the administration is
understood To he negotiating for an interna-
tional economic conference and both
branches OF Congress have pending resolu-
tons for another disarmament gathering.
contains suggestions which may not lightly
be dismissed by the administration In plan
ming its course He takes the position that
the United States cannot be OF real service
10 Europe until the dominant powers aban-
don their present imperialisic and militar-
istic exploiting policies. In other words
American intervention presupposcs financial
assistance. without which it would not be
Welcomed; hence that step should not he
undertaken until clear conditions have been
laid down as Il basis for action.
IF these countries" says Senator Borah
will signify their readiness to reduce and
adjust separations to point which would
permit Germany TO pay and live, to reduce
their land forces. to ratify the disarmament
treaties, to recognize the government of
Russia. to expose the secret military
conventions now obtaining between one of
the great powers and Il number of similar
powers, Ia waive the right to take posses
sion OF the Ruhr. then there would be some
thing upon which to begin to work out a
plan OF salvation. But if the policies which
have obtained for four years are to continue,
The United States cannot save Europe"
1t is well enough, as the Idaho Senator
says. 10 look the facts squarely in the face
before entering upon an undertaking of
the sort supposed to be in contemplation.
Clearly. a responsibility rests upon America
To help Europe in its distress-a RESPONSE
hility that goes with power. The power we
possess we can we'll, or we can use it

Tho Polish Tragedy

L Ol.LOW1NG the assassination of PreSi-
dent Narutowicz, the Polish republic
has been placed uudcr martial law by
proclamation OF the Cabinet While the
impression generally prevails that no po,
existed for the assassination. hut that it
was the act of an irresponsible fanatic. ten
sion originating i'll racial hatred and other
expressions of Intolerance suggested the
wisdom of this declaration TO allay popular
apprehension TO the lack OF security
pending the election OF new President.
Despite the conceded fact that the assas-
sination grew Of no direct plot. the
stage for it was set long ago. when Russia,
Germany and Austria dismcmbcrcd the lit
tie nation and swallowed it up. The tragedy
started toward its climax after the World
War. when Polish Nationalists aped the ex-
ample set them by the great powers For
tunate indeed will be the new republic
If it be not followed by other similar TRACE
dies. The initial crime OF the partition
herded Polish peoples into the folds OF the
three Central European powers. and re-
suited in the growth of political and racial
differences among the people so divided.
Then, when Poland reconquered its old
bounds after the World War. the self-styled
Polish patriots" chose by violence to
thrust back the boundaries Of their state
until the nation included large groups OF
alien peoples. kOrfanty in Silcsia and Cen
cral Heller in Wilma, who are leaders among
the present 100 per ccntcrs' in Warsaw
contributed to this situation
The policy went on until elections re-
vcaled to the Nationalist patriots" that in
their greed for more territory they had in
corporatcd groups among the citizenship
who deprived them OF majority control OF
the Polish Parliament which elects the
President. The aliens brought in bv This
greed for territory were made citizens They
elected representatives. and their combined
representation is greater than that OF the
Nationalist, or 100 per centers." In the
election for President something like two
weeks ago the candidate OF the combined
absorbed aliens, Gabriel NarUtOwicz. a ma
tive OF Lithuanian Poland. won the prcsi-
dency. y policy of violence and desperate
opposition TO the legally elected President
nStiGatcd by the Nationalist, Immediately
followed. No doubt this opposition inspired
the craZed brain OF the artist. Captain Me
vadomsk!. to commit the bloody crime from
motives of patriotism.

Claiming on tic Lid

COlNClDENT with the assembling in
- Washington of the Governors of sixteen
States to hear the Presidents appeal for
cooperation in making prohibition effective,
the. Prohibition Commissioner issued an or
der TO his field force to invoke the mad
lock" section OF the Nolstcad act whcr-
over and whenever possible during the COM
Ing year as means OF compelling certain
classes OF volators Of the law TO reform
their ways
This section is the most drastic enforce
ment measure conceived by the trainers OF
the No!siead act. II makes il possible for

q single violation OF the Law, to close for
period Of time any hotel, saloon cafe
or other business establishment which may
b" hailed before n Federal judge In issu-
ing such an order, the court. OF course. NAV

not incumbent upon the government to
prove that the owner Of a place OF business

sponsiblc, nevertheless The obvious pur-
pose OF this measure is to make hotel pro
pr!ctors and the proprictors OF other similar
businesses enforcement offices by coInpel-
!iNg thcm TO guard against violations on
their premises.
THIS section of the law has not been
invoked generally in the past PERHAPS the
government has hcsitatcd to employ so
dangerous a weapon out of fear that If
would contribute further TO the manifest
unpopu!arity OF prohibition. But, stirred by
the repeated admissions by high public ON

hihition enforcement is a failure and that
conditions scandalous in their character

All this Is briefly sketched in the urst

way property OF the Virginia Railway and
Power Company. Prices being paid by the
company for materials, says Mr.. Becler. ARE

Still. there are many elements OF cost that

The incontrovertible truth about the
whole business Is that as long as the law is
upon tho statute books, whether 1t be dras-
tic or benevolent. 1t should be enforced to
tho full extent OF tho governments re-
sources. II the Volstead act gives the gov
crnme.=t powers that In effect are conflsca-

powers are destructive, they should be mod
flied or repealed. 1t Is none too soon for the
government to give the country n demon
