Brighter Street Lighting.

There may be more light in the
streets. The District government
knows as well as citizens know that
many streets carrying a heavy volume
of traffic at night are feebly lighted
and that many residence streets are
nearly dark on noodles nights. 1t
is not the fault Of the District gov.
eminent that this is the case. 1t has
perhaps done the best that could be
within the limits of appropriations for
street lighting and with the other
means at hand. Experiments have
recently been made with higher can.
dlepower street lamps, with posts of
different heights and with refiectors
to throw most of the light into the
street and yet cast no shadow on the
sidewalk. Low branches of trees on
many streets, and even trees of the
usual form, have added difficulty to
the problem, but Washington under.

ing trees, for Washington would
scarcely be Washington without its
riches Of foliage along the streets. The
Commissioners have appointed a COM
mittee to make a survey Of the street
lighting ssituation. and the news Is
that they plan to include in their esti-
mates to the next Congress q sum
which will carry ou- such recon-.
mendations as the survey committee
may make. This survey committee
includes the electrical engineer Of the
District. the secretary to the Public
Utilities Commission, representatives
of the electric and gas companies and
members Of the Washington Chapter
Of the Society of Electrical Engineers.
1t Is a competent committee to deal
with this important subject.

Those Who Did Not Come Back

In the dispatch from Camden. S. c..
printed in The Star Friday telling of
the school fire at Cleveland, occurs
the following paragraph
Men who made their way out OF the
building returned in an endeavor to
rescue the injured and imperiled
Some Of them did not come back.
Some Of them did not come back.
They knew the chances were against
them when they returned into the
horror, but they did not hesitate. They
did their best for others. They obeyed
a natural impulse-to rescue those in
distress and danger. 1t is felt by prac-
tically all men, without reckoning the
risk. Repeatedly cases are reported
of heroism OF this kind, men pulling
others out of danger in the street,
leaping overheard to save the drown
ing, climbing perilous places to aid
others to escape from menace.
There Is never any lack of volun-
teers when such services are required.
Usually if few are needed from a
crowd the difficulty is to choose. At
this South Carolina fire horror there
was no calling for aid. no assignment
Of rescuers. There was the burning
building with women and children en-
trapped. screaming for help the flames

All honor to these heroes. who acted
instantly and lost their lives. They
are the kind of men of whom America
is proud. the more so because they are
typical of American manhood.

Easter Island Missing Again.

A dispatch from Melbourne, Aus
tralia. says that a wireless message,
apparently from ship. has been
picked up there saying that Easter
Island has disa ppeared. Something
ought to be done about Easter Island.
1t Is doing some very strange things.
On an average of at least once a year
it is reported missing. Then somebody
goes out to find the spot where it used
to be, and 10. there it is. right on its
old site, with its great stone ina ges
staring graphically out to sea, just as
they have been for untold decades.
maybe centuries.
Now. whether this is sport of Easter
Island or a sport of the newsmongers
of the Pacific is not precisely certain.
But it is surely confusing the geogra-
piers to have these unaccountable
disappearance" coming over the
Wires through the ether from time to
time. II Easter Island has a secret
means Of vanishing for q space there
is matter that interests others than
the ndpmdkerS- oH the Otner nanQ, II
the disappearance of Easter Island
is merely joke of the radio operators
on Participating ships it should be
known as a standard jest, so that it
need not be taken seriously.
Islands do disappear, but not to bob
up again soon after. And when they
disappear there is usually some sign
OF a CONFUSION that is felt elsewhere
and leaves a record. Surely Easter is
no floating island that shifts it's
base and travels around in the cur
rents of the South seas. One thing
may be said of it, that it does not
change it's latitude, however often it
may be reported among the missing.

Controller Overruled.

The Federal Employees Compensa-
ton Commission wins its point
against the controller general of the
United States in the matter of the
right of the commission to compensate
government employees for disabilities
arising from occupational diseases.
There is law and legal reasoning on
both sides of the case, but it will strike
most men that the Department of
JUSTICE, Sustaining the commission,
has the better of the argument. The
department CONSTITUTES the law with
lberality. and points out what was
evidently the intent of Congress. 1t
will be recalled that the controller held
that the commission erred in constru-
ing personal injury incurred through
government service to include occupa-
tional diseases. The commission held
that the controller general was with.
out the right to reverse its decision,
and presented the case to President
Harding, who referred it to the Attor-
ney General for an opinion. The De-
partment of Justice holds that the
commission has the power by virtue
Of the act under which it was created
10 construe the terms of said act, and
that any construction so rendered is
final and beyond interference by other
government officials" When the ad-
verse ruling of the controller general
was promulgated the disbursing Of
ficer of the compensation commission
stopped payments which were being
made to about 200 sufferers from &C.
cupational diseases such as lead, mer-
curry, carbon monoxide and INT
poisoning. anthrax and some cases Of
tuberculosis. The opinion Of the De-
partment of Justice is final in this
case, and the compensation commits
sion has the power to make payments
according to its Interpretation of the
law.
