an increase. Good quality stockers

Hogs opened steady with Mondays
average and closed 10 cents lower.
The entire list Of quotations fell be-
low the cent level for the first

New York.

Tammany is prominently in the pic
ture. It has been supreme in town for
several years, and now is again su-
preme in the state. Mayor Hylan and
Gov. Smith give it great confidence.
But, much as this is, it is not all.
Tammany aspires to be supreme in
the country. 1t would add the presi-
dency to the mayoralty and the gov
ernorship, and become, as it were, the
whole thing.
This does not mean that the organi-
zation is grooming Gov. Smith for the
democratic nomination in 1924. 1t is
supposed to have that matter under
advisement. but with knowledge that
there are difficulties in the way
The governor, thorough politician,
is said not to be showing any excite
ment over the suggestion that he will
be unbeatable in the next democratic
national convention for the party's ma
tional leadership. He knows what lies
before him for the coming eighteen
months, and that it is not safe to cal
summer, 1924. by his strength today.
But if Tammany can name the man
though he be none Of it's own-it will
feel much at home in Washington in
case of his election during his stay in
the White House.
At present Leader Murphy is un-
doubtedly playing in great luck. His
record in office throws that of the most
successful of his predecessors into the
shade, and gives him rank with the
foremost of his party's managing
men.

The Army and Navy.

The rejection yesterday without a
record vote Of a proposition to reduce
the size Of the Army from 125.0O to
100000 men placed a feather in the
cap of the House. 1t showed the
proper appreciation of the situation:
and representing sentiment on both
sides of the chamber it is assuring to
a gratifying degree.
Surely neither the Army nor the
Navy is too large. Neither, indeed,
is as large as professional opinion
recommends. Congress might in
crease the size of both, and only meet
the wishes of those trained in the art
of war and wearing the decorations of
.arduous services performed in the
field.
But, whatever their size, both the
Army and the Navy should be gen.
erously supported-kept fit in every
particular-be dependable weapons of
defense at all times and at moments S
notice-be worthy of the flag in any
emergency.
Uncle Sam cannot afford another ex-
perience with unpreparedness. The
one of six years ago was not only ex-
pensive in blood and treasure, but hui
initiating to national pride. We shared
in the worlds amazement that at such
time one of the greatest of the
nations should be foundering around
to get into action. We did not know
the shortcomings until they were ex-
posed before our eyes.
We are not touting for war. But
If war comes again we should be ready
and take our stand promptly and sus-
tain the record we made in the world
war on both land and sea after we
got ready and warmed up to the work

Winters Sharp. Touch.

Washington is feeling it's first really
severe cold of the winter. II does not
welcome the drop in temperature. 1t
might do so if its coal bins were even
half filled and there was some fair
assurance OF getting enough fuel To
last out the cold season. But with
the coal in the cellar measured by the
bushel rather than the ton, and with
the substitutes melting away rapidly
the state of the thermometer means
distress Of mind and impending dis
treSs of body.
A few years ago, when the rail lines
were choked with traffic and the
weather was severe, with a great deal
OF snow covering the countryside and
blocking the tracks, this city, with
others, suffered severely from fuel
shortage. 1t was difficult to get de-
liveries by rail and even more difficult
to get deliveries by wagon. The local
dealers were hard pressed to handle
the slender stocks they were able to
obtain. The result was that many
houses III this city were cold, many
people were exposed to disease and
many of them, indeed, succumbed.
This winter there is no serious track
blockade. The tracks are open, or
may be opened by express orders, TO
the movement of fuel. There is
comparative shortage at the mines.
owing to the fact that the strike cut
down the spring and summer. produc-
ton to practically nothing during sew
eral months. Despite the endeavors
OF commissions, both state and fed.
eral, distribution has proceeded un-
equally: Perhaps every city feels that
it is the victim of discrimination. Ger
tainly Washington feels thus, and that
feeling increases the distress by add
ing sense of injustice to the physical
strain.
Without doubt the local fuel dealers
are doing their best to supply the
people. They cannot give them all
the coal they want. They are urging
the use OF substitutes for anthracite
and are eking out their short receipts
with care to provide a maximum
number Of persons with enough fuel
to keep the fires going.
By use of, substitutes, coke, bri.
quettes and other sources of heat, this
difficult time can probably be tided
over. Indeed, there is no doubt that
the winter will be passed without dis
aster. 1t is inconceivable that an en-
tire city should be left without means
Of keeping from freezing. Those
who have enough fuel stored in their
houses to insure the keeping of fires
should refrain from seeking more, as
an insurance, for every ton they take
out of the common stock is denied to
others who need it more urgently.
Moderation in the use of fuel and
the adoption Of substitutes for an
thracite will greatly and in getting
past these next few weeks, when the
thermometer will range between freez-
ing and zero and when perhaps snow
will come to add to discomforts and
dangers.

UP TO THE PEOPLE.

(Mr. Upshaw) in trying to sweep the
House of prohibition has helped to
"oVerSet it," for III. as he says. gov
ernors, members of Congress, senators

A WINTER WHITE HOUSE NEXT.
I notice that another charitabIy
minded individual, who has passed
away lately. has offered property for
establishing what he calls a summer
White House somewhere else than in
Washington. There should be but one
White. House, in this government of
ours. and that is here in Washington
There Is too much growing tendency
to create aristocracies and to follow
tE example set UP by royalty in other
countries, by monarchies in other
countries, Certain people would have
a summer White House in the north
and an autumn White House some
where else, and a winter White House
in Florida. 1t is following European
example little too. much. I am
against it all. and / believe the people
OF this country want a little more

opinion that it may be necessary for
the city to ask a legislative enactment
or to exercise arbitrary power to cut
down the fleets of automobiles now
crowding the highways. If the yearly
percentage Of cars increases at the
rate of the last two years, he says,
traffic will soon come to a standstill
for want of space in which to move.
Since the beginning of the year the
traffic court has heard $1,000 cases,
and fines amounting to $500, 900 have
been assessed.
Motoring has become the chief occu-
patton Of the American people, it
would seem from any observation of
conditions in the cities and the coun-
try sections. The people are riding by
the millions. whereas a couple of
decades ago only thousands moved
about by their own means of trans
port. The motor is used for the short
est distances. Errands- OF few blocks
call for motor service. Business trans
port demands motors. Social activi.
ties are generally predicated upon per-
sonal transportation. Pleasure riding
has become a fixed American habit.
Will it be possible to check the num-
bers of motors in use by limiting the
licenses? New York will have q tre-
mendous fight on its hands if it seeks
through official agencies to shut off
this source of supply of individual
transport. Where can the line be
drawn? Business first, naturally. But
are the streets to be used only for
strict business? What of the business
men who regard the transportation of
their persons as of as much impor-
tance as the movement of goods?
The motor car has. in truth, de
veloped SO rapidly that cities that
were built with regard for the traffic
of Il slower pace cannot accommodate
the volume Of use. Regulations serve
to lessen dangers and to facilitate
movements, but if the volume con-
tinues to grow rules will operate main.
~ to reduce movement and to increase
congestion. Plainly, the problem in a
great center like New York, and in
less degree in other places where the
geographical conditions are more ia.
vorable to traffic movement, is one Of
the most serious of the time.
