Make an End of the Traffic Jam
4 Police Commissioner Enright, in
announcing that traffic congestion in
the streets is becoming rapidly worse,
merely tells the citizens what they
already know from their own obser-
vation Thus far neither the Com
missioner nor any of his deputies
has devised any broad plan for
coping with this situation.
| Plainly this task is too big for
the police. Moreover, the police
ought not to be expected to under
take it. Their difficulties in preserv-
ing order increase with every thou
sand that is added to the popula-
tion.
1t is the opinion Of The Tribune
that the only way to settle this
problem permanently, to the end
that the pedestrian shall be pro-
tected and the traffic stream per-
mitted to flow freely, is to intrust
it's solution to a commission COM
posed of business men and traffic
engineers. and to put the authority
of the city or Of the state behind it.
Such remedies as confining the
activities of taxis and commercial
vehicles, establishing one-way routes
on existing streets, are only tempo
rary. They would afford relief for
not more than six months at the
most.
To effect permanent better
ment three plans have been sug-
gested, none of which can be put
into effect till all have been care
fully considered and until the exact
figures as to the Improvement to be
expected are available.
These plans are:
First--North and south traffic
viaducts or tunnels, probably situ-
ated at each side Of Manhattan
Island.
Second - Crosstewn viaducts or
tunnels at regular intervals, which
will permit the north and south
traffic current to proceed with less
interruption.
Third--The construction of new
north and south streets. One, for
instance, perhaps in the middle secr
tion of the city between Sixth and
Seventh avenues.
Many objections may be urged to
the last plan. One is that con-
demnation proceedings for the pos
session of the necessary property
would involve endless complications.
A second is that unless the motor
way were elevated the additional
street would soon overflow with
traffic and the relief afforded by 1t
would come to an end.
The entire matter is next in i'm
portance to the subway situation to
the people of this city. Their streets
are rapidly being taken from them
by automobiles, which are not only
necessary to the progress and pros
perity of the people but have an
absolute right to use the public
highways.
No cure can be effected without
the expenditure Of large amount
of money. And such an expenditure
unless made wisely will bring no
important result.
One thing is certain: Something
must be done at once. And 1t cannot
possibly be done by city depart
ment which already has its hands
more than full in keeping the laws
enforced in city of 5000, 900 people.

TO BROADCAST
WEEKLY SERMONS

The First Presbyterian Church Of
Seattle, Wash, has lately installed a
powerful radio broadcasting station
which will send out each Sunday the
sermons of its pastor, the Rev. NJ A.
Matthews, d. D., LII. D., who writes
the s'Punchettes" for this paper. The
hours of the services are (Western
Time) II a. M, $3.50 p. NJ and 80
p. m. By our standard time they will.
be two hours later.
Whether any receiving outfit in this
vicinity can catch these sermons we
do not know. 1t will be interesting
to know if any of them are being
heard here. Users of radio receiving
sets in this vicinity are increasing in
number and the efficiency of the in
struments is also increasing. The Re-
porter will be glad to know if any of
the local radio fans can get into tune
with the waves from Seattle Sunday
afternoon.

es to fortify his attack, and he names
three university professors among
them, namely, Stanley Rypins of the
University of Minnesota, Gerhard
Dietrichson Of the University of Il
linois and Felix Frankfurter of Har-
ward University, besides number of
other distinguished citizens.

to be permitted to sit on the Supreme
Court Of the United States, and this
can be definitely demonstrated
Privately some of the Harding
men admit of a belief that the nom
ination of Butler is likely to be con-
firmed, but if it is, they say, there is
no doubt the result will be a widening
of the existing party division. La
Toilette will lead the opposition to
Butler in the executive session of the
Senate, and he will be backed by Sen
ator Norris. Already Butler is spoken

PRIZES TO BE GIVEN
FOR CHRISTMAS SEAL SALES

A reproduction of life-sized por-
trait of Louis Pasteur, "the Father of
Preventive Medicine" has been select
ed by the Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis
in the Christmas Seal sale. The Sc
lection of a likeness of this great
French scientist as a schol prize is
especially timely inasmuch as this is
the one hundredth anniversary of his
birth, and Europe and America are
uniting to honor his memory with ap-
propriate celebrations of his centen-
NAL
The sepia reproduction of Pasteur's
portrait, bearing the scientists fam
Gus words, ut is within the Power of
Man to Cause All Germ Diseases to
Disappear from the Earth" will be "a
warded to every one-room rural
school and to every graded school in
the state which have sold at least five
dollars worth of seals. Schools which
have been especially active in assist
ing campaign managers in the various
communities Of the state will also be
presented with one of the pictures.
Believing that every school child
should be familiar with the work of

Association will issue a Special num-
Der of its Cruader, devoted to the life
and achievements of this great man,

prize. On the revolutionizing discov-
cries of Pasteur is based al modem
medicine, from the successful treat
ment of tuberculosis to the conquest
of yellow fever, which made possible
the digging of the Panama Canal;

antiseptic methods which saved count
less lives III the great world war

Il used to think she was awful

diamond rings and had three
others given to her it seemed
to me she might have given one
to me. We went to the. red
school together. But she
learned not to give, and I
learned to be envious. Then I
went to school again among the

and that's all she got out of
them herself. She kept from me

race that of right is the purpose of the training
and education the Indians of Alaska and Yukon Terri

various churches. is greatly be desired that the
Indians of the North may gradually qualify them
selves take their places with those of the white
full citizens of the realm, politically and econ

responsibilities implied
The greatest danger right the Indians of
the North is that ambitious members of the race,
allotted by politicians, may try to crowd the evou-
tionary process toward full citizenship 1t
took other of generations develop the
qualities that fitted them for elf-government. In
other parts of the nation it required several genera
tons before the Indians qualified the
status of full citizenship in the country. They made
quicker progress than those other in the
beginning because they surrounded and were in
constant contact with of freemen who had been
schooled in the work of self-government-who came
to America that they could govern themselves
rs no other of people had been up until very
recent times.
The Alaska Indians should exercise patience and
permit the evolutionary process proceed gradually
1t is better to be sure than to rush into a mistake
And If mistake is made it will be even more dis
astrous for the Indians than for the whites.

COUNTRY NOT READY FOR
CANCELLATION.

Whatever may be the arguments in its favor it
Is evident that the country is ready to cancel
the debts owing to it from foreign countries.
Perhaps the strongest argument against the re-
pudiation or cancellation the debt owing to the
United States on account of the war far as the
business policy of such procedure would be- is that
IT would set precedent that would preclude the
probability of any more national loans being made by
any country. Congress would probably never again
agree TO the use of the credit of the United States for
the benefit of foreign country it is not likely
that any other country would lend its credit if all
the debtor country would have to do to avoid re-
payment would be to say we cannot pay please
cancel

that one take his loss bad debt as soon as it is
