Commissioner of Markets O'Malley
recently admitted there was graft in
his department. But this contributed
no information. Every one in Ganse-
WORT and Wallabout markets knows
it. The Meyer Committee long ago
established it.
The Commissioner has no defense
except that he is so busy repelling
attacks on his collectors" who
assess pushcart peddlers 81 a week
that the poor man has no time, he
says, to make the proper sort of
search for it, The collecting" sys-
tenn is one of the most amazing the
city has ever known. In a hearing
before Justice Cropsey last week it
developed that more than half
a million dollars half year is
collected from the peddlers and that
of this money there is no definite &C
counting. "Nice plumber for some
body" was Justice Cropsey's COM
ment.
Now comes Mayor Hylan with
letter to Mr. O'Malley assuring him
Of absolute confidence in his adj
ministration and charging that
profiteers are trying to injure the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS by COM
planning about graft in the Market
Department.
1t may be assumed that after the
receipt Of this letter Mr.. O'Malley
will sit back happily and give him.
self no further trouble about his
promise to get rid of the grafters.
Why should he do anything more
when the man who appointed him
fulsomely assures him that his work
is perfect?
Loyalty to honest and energetic
appointees is commendable. But
patting on the back commissioners
such as Enright and O'Malley
strengthens them in the arrogant
attitude that whatever they do is
right and convinces citizens that it
is idle to complain.

Politics in Pillow Cases

A victory in Texas and a near
victory in Oregon indicate that the
Ku-Klux Khan is still meddling in
politics.
Political success will spell disas-
ter sooner or later to the sheet and
pillow case masqueraders. The vast
majority of Americans have a well
settled idea that secret societies
must keep out of elections. No So
ciety founded on religion and racial
prejudices has ever had more than
a feeting success.
The Ku-Klux Khan is built up on
religious and racial hatreds, draw
ing added membership from people
who delight in fummery and fan
tastic costumes and who think it
fine fun to terrorize communities
in disguise, so there is the least
possible chance of being caught
at it..
What the IeXas victory Will do is
to center attention upon the Khan
again. 1t does not thrive on pub
licity, as it discovered from re-
cent experience when it's member
ship fell enormously.
The Ku-Kluxers can continue to
parade in their white and flowing
bed clothing and their witches masks
as long as they choose, provided
they do not try to brighten voters
or other citizens or seek the control
of local politics.
AS soon as they begin that sys-
tematically they will soon cease to
exist as an organization.

1t 10 an all-essential first step. It
is an amazing thing that now there
is no co-ordinated plan.
The London Conference

When Poincare reaches London
and confers with Lloyd George the
French Premier will have the ad-
vantage of a cast-iron case.
For a time it seemed that the
shouting of such irrelevancies as
that France is relentless, or MILL
taristic, or frenzied in hate might
divert attention from the cold facts
of the reparation problem. But
France kept calm and firm and the
merits of her contentious are no
longer seriously challenged.
France was the great war suf-
ferer. Is it fair, or just, or moral
to ask her to repair the damage
done to her while Germany, her
wanton assailant, goes free? OBJ
viously some one must pay for the
reconstruction Of the wrecked prov
inces of France. If Germany doesn't,
or some one does net in her stead,
then France must do it. Is there a
person in the world able to say with
sincerity that such shift of burden
from the aggressor to the victim is
right? No wonder Lloyd George is
not able to meet this simple
argumenti
To restore France was the post
war business of Germany. But if
any other country for reasons that
seem good to it would shoulder part
of the burden it has the privilege.
But to pass the burden to France is
to be generous at another's expense.

What Readers Are THINKING

ence and availability of radium tharapy
is to be commended.
This reduction in the price of radium
will tend to lessen the death rate from
cancer, since it means that radium will
now be available for use in thousands
OF additional cases. The radium appro-
priation Of the physician or hospital or
city or state will go further and the
same outlay of money will procure Is
TO 20 per cent more radium. Although
the initial outlay for radium is con-
siderable, it does not lose its strength
Tor 5000 years and can be used over
and over again, since it does not de-
eerlorate to any appreciabie extent.
Besides widening the field of useful
ness OF this branch of therapy. the re-
ouced cost of radium will make pos
sloie further experimentation, which
may result In even greater advances
IN che future. ARTHUR ROEDER.

The Immigrants Welcome
70 the Editor of The Tribune.


Sir: "Americanization, Good and
Bad" reprinted in The Tribune from
III Popolo," hits the nail on the head.
Certain apostles Of Americanization be-
lieve that in order quickly to Amer
icanize it is necessary to instill scorn
in the minds Of the foreigners for the
land of origin. / believe this to be
wrong.
The immigrant should be made to
feel as one Of us without forgetting
what he was and what he thought of
before coming here. He should not be
held in contempt nor be despised; his
race, nationality or creed should not be
in the way and he ought to be consid-
cred one Of US.
Race hatred and prejudice do not ac-
complish good; they destroy. To dis
tinguish between one race and another
is not American. We are all equals
and as such entitled to the same con-
sideration until otherwise proved.
Let us be kind to all; let us make
no base distinction. Give to all those
who come here sufficient reason to
love and respect our land and no one
will fail to respond and properly ap-
preciate America and its beneficial in
situations and on one will be UNIV arthy
Of our country, America.

The Prohibition Poll

The second hundred thousand
votes cast in "The Literary Digest's"
poll on prohibition shows no very
material change since the first hum
dred thousand. The percentages of
the total votes cast up to the date of
the latest bulletin give 1904 per cent
for strict enforcement, 41.05 per cent
for light wines and beers and 22.O1
per cent for complete repeal of the
prohibition act. ,,..-
The country seems to want some
form of prohibition, but is dissatis-
fed with the present kind. If it be
admitted, as seems undoubtedly true,
that those voting for repeal of the
amendment would prefer light wires
and beer to legal dryness, the wet
forces number a fraction over 60
per cent of the voters. Those OPP
posed to complete repeal, however,
total 70 per cent.
Geographically the vote is dis
tinctly interesting. The dryest re-
gions are found west of the Allie
ghanies and east of the Rockies. The
wettest districts are In those states
having big cities and industrial CEN
tiers. Twenty-Five states favor COM
plete prohibition, twenty want light
wines and beer. and two vote for
repeal.
In some of the states the vote is
still too small to be accepted as de-
finitive. In others, however, it is
large enough give a quite clear
indication of public sentiment. When
the third or fourth hundred thou
sand votes are counted it should be
possible to form an accurate esti-
mate of the state of public opinion.

China 8 Coal

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Of interest at this time of dis
cussion of coal possibilities may be the
following extract from letter re-
ceived to-day from a Chinese at
Chih-li, in China. In spe1k-
ing Of the mining administration he
says:
"There are about 100 Chinese and
twenty foreigners on the staff Of
this Tongshan office. You will be in
terested to know that one of the
mines possessed by this company is
situated near Tongshan and is the
biggest coal mine in the world. 1t
turns out 1000 tons of coal day.
This company has altogether over
10000 workmen at the mines"
1t has long been claimed that China
has beneath its surface twenty times
the coal and iron that Europe has. The
"open door policy" of the United States
may yet prove very helpful.

National Readiness

General Pershing intrudes on the
dreamy apathy of those who have
short memories with plans for
bringing the United States into
what he terms ga national position
IN readiness"
However remote possible invasion
may be, 1t is essential to be prepared
against it. The war showed the
consequences of unpreparedness. 1t
cost many lives, and if the Allies
had not stood between us and the
Germans we would have been in
grave peril.
We may have no allies the next
time, so must be able to protect our
selves. To insure this General
Pershing would organize the mill
tary establishment to guard landing
spots and lines of advance by ex-
listing divisions. Relying on naval
and air forces to give warning of
threatened attack, there would be
ready to defend their sector and at
the same time be able to recruit to
full war strength and give adequate
training to new men.
Sills plan looks to cooperation
with the coast, air and naval forces
while the military establishment is
expanding from peace to war
strength. It requires a well-trained
small regular force with adequate
trained reserves and sufficiently
strong to withstand invasion while
a new national army is being
created.
General Pershing lays down the
maxim that "the permissible mini
mum of peace training is that
required to prevent invasion at the
outbreak of the war" This is, of
course, only the first step, as mere
defense against invasion is hardly
to defeat the enemy. But

1t is not given to the sons of Adam

them to see things from the standpoint
of the many, but only from that of the
individual. That is why it is necessary
for society acting collectively to set
up certain rules of conduct which
operate generally, if loosely, in favor
of the many, and why they are pro-
