the proposition that the suhways
shall become the playthins Of dis
trict leaders.
No country was aver better suited
than Germany 10 the job OF max
Ing municipal operation work prsc-
tical There the State had vast
experience in real business. Yet
now the Municipal Council OF Ber-
lin proposes to take public utilities
entirely out OF the hands OF politi-
cal bodies and leave them to nom
partisan administrators. And why?
Because all the public utilities Of
operated as well as municipality
owned-subways street cars and
gas-show increasing deficits.
1t is often necessary for q State
or a city 10 build some great public
utility like the subway system OF
New York. And. owning the util-
lty. il must watch it and control it.
But the operation OF great utilities
like the subway IS something for
business men to perform. Every
man and woman who watched the
Federal Government try to run the
railroads during the war knows
wha, happens under Government
operation OF such things.
IT was commonly understood that
in 1921 the people Of New York
voted for a hve-cent fare. How long
would they have a five-cent fare un-
der municipal operation of the
transit facilities OF this town?

! Germany cannot hope TO recover her
Industrial health. II that is not cre-
ating a casus belli for future Ger
| mans. what is It? If France fears
] that Germany is contemplating an
other war. why does the French gov
ernment furnish Germany valid eX-
cuse for war? II Alsace and Lor-
raine were a justification for nurs-
| ing the hope OF a French victory over
Germany. the Ruhr and the Rhine
land will justify Germany m nursing
the nope OF victory over France.
The.answer 20 the foregoing may
be this: Germany has failed 10 pay.
France must collect reparstions or
die Therefore it is a lesser evil 10
seize German territory than it is 10
let Germany escape the consequence
OF her aggression.
This answer. however, Is based
upon the assumption that there is no
alternative to seizure Of the Ruhr.
We ho.d that there are alternatives
which would produce reparations.
The United states government has
suggested an alternative which
France has spurned. Germany itself
suggested an alternative which
contains at least the germ Of an
amicable adjustment. The wits OF
Europe have not been exhausted. nor
have the combined resources of the
allies and Germany been applied 20
the problem Of adjustment. Where
there is a will in such matters there
is a way.
on the surface OF events the opin-
ion is forced upon many Americans
that France is delibera ELY choosing
the military weapon when other
measures are avaiia BILE. Whether
she is given a free hand by Britain
in exchange for support IN the Near
East, or whether the speculation TO
that effect is baseless, does not mat
ter. The point is that a fresh cause
of future war between France and
Germany is about to be furnished by
France.

Of the First Unitarian Church ad-
dressed the Social Service Club at

last night. DR.. Nrooman who is
secretary OF the Prisoners Aid So

said that work will be remembered
and cherished for years.

role law by DR.. Vrooman. the club
working in cooperation with other
civic bodies, decided 10 send a reso-
luton to the General Assembly now
in session at Dover, endorsing the
parole law.

From Paris comes a plain intims-
tion that the French government
would be disagreeably surprised il
the United States should intervene
Al this time in tho repsratlons situa-
lions. IL Is stated that some one In
high authority observes that the time
for Intervention by the United States
has passed. The inference drawn
from these reports IL thst the French
government Ia anxious TO proceed
with the program Of selling part OF
the Ruhr. and that. having escaped
the handicap Of British Interference.
II Is now anxious to avoid American
interference.
Il seems TO us that the French
government Is borrowing trouble If
II fesrs the United States govern
ment will interfere with the plans
on foot. This government is not in
the habit Of intermedd'ing in Euro

opinion on the subject of employing
force in the repara tions situation.
and has taken the liberty, as friend
OF all parties, OF suggesting a method
whereby a solution might possibly be
found without employ ing force But
the United States government has
made it'plaln that il intends to go no
further. It will not interpoSe pro-
test against Frances occupation Of
the Ruhr, however mistaken that
step may appear 10 be from the
American point OF view. Nor will the
United States call a conference TO
consider Europe's plight. The rep
arations question Is primarily ques-
ton for Europe 10 settle. Although
the failure TO settle il. or the accum-
ulation OF further complications by
operations may delay the
payment or Europe's debts to the
United States, this government sticks
to the position that reparations and
debts are separate questions. Europe
must settle the reparations questions
as best Il can. II IL declines to con-

as residuary beneficiary under the
versailles Treaty he held to be diff
ferent now from what it was a week
ago? Senator Reeds resolution de-
claring that the American troops on
the Rhine should be recalled was
manifestly a tribute Of gratitude on
his part to a powerful element in
Missouri which saved him his re-
nomination and reelection. But as
a reaction TO recent happenings in
Europe it has no serious meaning.
What ground could the Admins
tration have for evacuating the CO.

year since the ratification Of the

For the second time since women

who died in the Brandywine San

the severing Of arteries in his
wrists; and Isaiah Wilmer, whose
body was found in the race along
the Brandywine. In sll three cases
the verdicts returned were that of
suicide.
The session last night was well
attended, doubtless due TO the nov
city OF women serving as jurors.
The women who served were Mrs.
Denny Goldsborough wife Of Pa

daughter of Coroner Taylor; Mrs.
Dorothy Mae Martin and Mrs. Flor

The first women TO serve on A

to the reluctance OF the women n
