S1uice the Streets!

The rains that have fallen since the

ington. The dirt that accumulated
upon the snow piles has sunk to the
surface of the pavements and there it
now lies, in a mucky state, highly
deleterious to health and decidedly un-
pleasant to all who use the streets. 1t
should be cleaned away as speedily as
possible.
In such a situation the use of the
fire department Is to be suggested as
the most effective agency. In a few
hours, with the systematic use Of the
hose, the pavements could be secured
clean and the dirt sent into the sewers.
1t is idle to wait for the rain, which
may not come, or may come in
drix1ies. Only heavy, drenching fall
will suffice, and this may not be forth
coming for many days.
Such a use of the Potomac water
would be well worth while. The pave.

That responsibility rests upon the

The Presidents Tribute.

President Harding's address at the
closing plenary session of the arms
conference today is a fitting tribute to
the self-sacriflcing services Of the ma
tions represented, resulting in a series
of agreements which more definitely
make for world peace than any other
agreements ever made. Appropriately
the President notes the difficulties,
briefly, that have been overcome, the
obstacles within and hindrances with
out" which had to be overcome. He
points to the fact that only unanimous
agreement could be the rule Of action.
that ma jorities could not decide with
out impinging national rights" For.
as he says, there were no victors to
command, no ranquished to yield.
The agreements reached have been
proclaimed to the world. Step by step
the conference has made known its
decisions. 1t has been exceptional in
the promptness and frankness with
which successive stages have been
reached and announced. In respect to
constant publicity the Washington
conference has been unique among in

Harding's epitome of the proceedings
Of these past twelve weeks is an in

mism. feliciteusly phrased, has a sub

real achievements.

I thought that all the world was
wrong
When bitter winds came blowing
strong
In February days.
I thought 1t was a world Of woe
Because a weary waste OF snow
Expanded to my gaze.
And then dreamt about year
In which the skies were always clear,
Quite free from any mist.
And all the wheat and oats and corn
Grew faint and faded and forlorn
Meath blazing amethyst.
My old alarm clocks busy stroke
Turned unto speech, as awoke.

IF all the world were free from care,
With mirth and sunshine everywhere,
The world would all be wrongr'
Through hardship we must compre-

The Conference Ends.

With today's plenary session, at
which President Harding very appro-
priate1y appeared before the delegates
to voice appreciation and farewell. the
conference on the limitation Of arna,
nient and far eastern and Pacific ques-
tions came to an end. Three months
of arduous and conscientious labor
have been devoted to the tasks which
the nations undertook at the invita-
tion OF this government, and the ver-
dict of the world is that the work has
been done well.
The agreements arrived at will be
Of great and immediate benefit to the
nations which are parties to them.
The methods pursued by the confer
ence and the principles which gov
erned its deliberations win be of un-
told benefit to generations of men yet
unborn. For the first time in the
worlds history the golden rule has
been applied on a large scale to the
relationship Of nations. In the Wash
ington conference the powers repre-
sented really sought to do unto others
as they would have others do unto
them.
1t is not to be understood from this
that the conference agreements are
perfect to a point beyond criticism.
No one government has ever yet at
tanned perfection in it's own affairs,
and not until the millennium arrives
can it be expected that the intercourse
of nations will be perfected. But in
the Washington conference a spirit of
fair dealing and generosity prevailed
Unprecedented in such gatherings.

was no Ration represented which did

order that the vital interests of others

that, they have reached point where

the conference into being and for the
leadership which refused to acknowl-
edge that any problem was too diff
cult to be solved, credit is due this
government and is freely accorded by
others. But however able and resolute
the leadership, success could not have
been attained without sincere and
earnest cooperation, so there is no
disposition on the part Of Americans
to hog the credit. In the words Of
great naval hero, There is glory
enough for ALL"
It is now to be hoped that the lesson
Of the conference viii not be lost on
Europe in it's present time Of travail.
There is need there for a similar con-
ference animated by the same spirit
which prevailed in Washington. If the
nations Of the war-racked continent
can bring themselves to a point of
willingness to do unto others as they
would have others do unto them their
troubles will melt away, and they soon
will be on the road to assured peace
and returned prosperity.
