Why allow the pestilence to spread

we can counteract the effects of these

Pleads for Liberty
Montenegrin Official Brings Ma

To the Editor Of The Star:
Coming to America for the first
time, 1t is my pleasant duty to salute
the friends of my people. You have
already saved thousands of starving
women and children by your gener-
Gus contributions to Montenegrin re-
lief.
1 am here as the nations repre-
sentative. bearing witness in person
to a gratitude too deep for words.
You are saving our lives. But come
here to tell you that there is one
thing which Montenegrins love better
than life. And that is liberty. We
stand where your own great orator
stood when he cried: Give me lib
erty or give me DEATH"
We ask no more than you asked in
1875. And we ask 1t as your ally,
who trusted the solemn promise of an
American President that Montenegro
should have a hearing.
Seeks Fair Play.
Your high buildings, as you say,
scrape the sky-like the Black noun
tain that gives my country it's name.
But your own people, who know your
heart, tell me that you hold justice
You call 1t fair play"
Montenegro has never had fair
play. She was the first ally in the
war. When Austria threatened Ser
bia, she made no conditions. but
chcerfully sacrificed nearly half her
army in the first year. In return,
Serbia took away. or tried to take
away. her independence.

tarism, our people have suffered i'm
prisonment, burnings, exile, torture,

Fortunately the United States has
not signed any international treaty
recognizing the annulment of the
sovereign rights Of Montenegro. You
have not sanctioned this great inter
conscience of all liberty-loying peo-

We are counting upon your con-
tinued kindness to our women and

Animal Rescue League.

The Animal Rescue League asks for
funds to carry on its work. 1t is rather
an unsual appeal, because this society
maintains itself from within. It's men,
bers pay dues, they chip in generously
to make up deficits and conduct enter
tainments to raise money to make
easier the lot of unfortunate cats,
dogs and other domestic animals. No
officer of the league draws a salary
from it, the league car travels on its
errands of mercy from morning till
late in the evening, and the number
of animals received at the home of the
league last year was over $4,000.
Those acquainted with the work Of
= this society know that it is good and
faithful. At this season it is faced with
the problem of abandoned cats and
dogs. 1t seems strange to gentle-hearted
persons that a family can pet a cat or
fondle a dog or pretend to think the
world of its pet and then shut up the
fiat or house and go away leaving the
poor animal to hustle for food and
shelter. A pet which has had its food
served plentifully, and has looked on
some comfortable corner as a sleeping
place, finds it hard to go forth in the
alleys to make it's living in competition
with poor half-wild cats and dogs that
have never known a friend.
In issuing its appeal the league says:
'At this time our work Is many times
greater than during the winter months
Many persons leave town without
making provision for the little pet who
has been so much pleasure and COM
fort through the year. AS a result it is
left homeless, and soon becomes a
stray to find shelter and food for it.
self. This being impossible, it leads a
life of untold suffering until some one
takes pity upon it and sends it to the
Rescue League"
If a person has a pet, or holds in
remembrance some animal that was a
pet, or thinks kindly of the dumb
creatures that are companionable with
us when we encourage them, and that
seem to do their best to talk to us,
that person might think for a moment
of the appeal which the Rescue League
sends out.

purposes and the worthwhile achieve
ments OF the Y. NJ. c. A. are known to
a great number Of people. The Wash
ington branch of the association has
been established here so many years
that it is a strain upon the memory of
the Oldest inhabitant to think back to
the time when the association made
it's appearance in Washington. One
seems to recall that many years ago
il had its headquarters in the old Tay-
lor residence, which stood at the north.
east corner of 9th and d streets, and
on the site of which house and it's
garden Lincoln Hall was built. Later
it had headquarters on the north side
Of New York avenue between 14th and
18th streets, and still later it took up
the Columbia Athletic Club. Then it
built its present fine structure. retain
ing the old athletic club building for
the use of one of its departments.
1t ought not to call for much effort
to add 500 to the membership of the
organization, but such is the case.
There are membership campaigns
everywhere, just as there are drives
for raising funds. Nearly every or.
ganization wants more members. and
nearly every charitable organization
needs more money. Organizations have
increased, and nearly everybody is a
member of one or a dozen, or more
than a dozen, organizations. But even
in the present era OF competition for
increasing membership the Y. M c. A.
should get what it wants. 1t is doing
and has been doing big work for
giving boys and young men a whole
some environment and giving them
ideals worth sticking to, or, taking un-
der its supervision boys with high
ideals. it has striven to make it easier
for them to keep those ideals.

Brindell.

New York's Monday thrill is sup.
piled this week by the announcement
that Robert P. BrindelI, former build.
ing trades union car, now serving a
term in Sing Sing for extortion, was
caught yesterday in communication
with his family outside of Sing Sing
prison where he has been confined.
Rumors of such meetings have been
current for some time, but it was not
until yesterday that the warden of the
prison, getting tip that Brindell was
outside, trapped him in building con.
nected with the reservoir system, his
guard standing on watch outside. The
guard was ordered to report for trial,
and Brindell was put in closer confine-
ment and will probably lose his good
behavior allowances, and perhaps be
made to serve the limit Of his flexible
term Of from five to ten years.
This case is of Importance outside
of New York in that this man Brindell

Ku Klux and Publicity.

The Office of Governor of New York
has certainly not been a bed Of roses,
especially just at present. Take the
situation of Gov. Smith at this particu-
larly trying junction. When the legis-
lature adjourned recently it passed on
to him two bills, one repeating the pro-
hibition enforcement statute OF the
state and the other requiring that all
secret societies within the state must
file lists of their members with the
secretary of state at Albany, under
penalty of prosecution for failure to do
so. Last Wednesday the governor
signed the "anti-mask" bill, and later
this week he will hold hearing to
determine whether to sign the enforce
ment repeal bill.
There is political dynamite in both
Of these measures. Already the fuse
on the anti-mask dynamite has begun
to fizz. Saturday and Sunday in plain
flouting of the new law-though 1t
does not become operative until next
Saturday-several initiation services
were held within the state. with the
usual accompaniment of flaming
crosses. There was little or no secrecy
about them. Indeed, they were de-
signed to demonstrate that the men,
ferent to the anti-mask statute. Openly
members and apparent leaders at these
meetings, which were attended by
newspaper representatives. denounced
the statute and declared their inten-
ton to ignore it.
Under the present system Of the ku
Klux Klan certain officials in each
locality or jurisdiction are ayowed
publicly. In case of a general defiance
of the New York statute and failure
to file the list of membership these
officials will doubtless be the ones
named for prosecution under the
statute. In all likelihood the law will
be resisted, and those hailed to court
for failure to file membership lists will
challenge it. To do so they must
themselves invoke the processes of
law. 1t will be interesting to watch
the course of these proceedings. One
Of the principal objects Of the ku Klux
klan is to do Justice" by short cuts,
ignoring the law as too slow and cum
bersome for results. 1t may be that
resistance to the New York statute
will take the form of invoking the very
processes of delay that are so often
quoted by the Klan as one Of the chief
reasons for it's existence.
Meanwhile Gov. Smiths political
prospects, if he has any, are dimmed
by this development of antagonism on
the part of an organization which un-
auestionably numbers a great many
American voters in all parts Of the
country.

The Gayety of Politics.

The republican and democratic ma
tional committees are adding to the
gayety of politics these otherwise dull
political days by an animated conten-
ton over the question of which party
is the best friend of woman. Talk
about. jealousy-the green-eyed mon
ster is fairly devouring the committees
in their rivalry for the woman vote.
Chairman Hull of the democratic
committee came out in a statement the
other day alleging that the republicans
had slighted the woman voters by not
taking them into partnership in the
national committee. Judge Hull said,
Republican national leaders, after a
full trial of nearly three years. have
demonstrated that republican women
are not welcome on the national COM
mittee, however welcome they may be
on election day" Then, figuratively
extending his chest, he pointed with
pride to the democratic committee and
told Of the generous treatment it had
accorded democratic women in giving
them equal representation on the ma
tional committee since 1920, contrast
ing it with the "chinchy" course of the
republicans.
Chairman Hull seemed to have the
enjoyed seeing the republicans squirm.
Secretary Lockwood of the republican
committee wrote an apologetic edi.
torial in the National Republican, the
committees unofficial organ, pointing
out that only the action of the national
convention could enlarge the national
committee by the addition Of women,
but laid great stress on what the re-
publican party had done for women.
Today, Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton,
vice chairman of the executive COM
mittee of the republican national com
mittee, comes back at Chairman Hull,
calling his attention to the fact that
five times between 1913 and 1919 the
democratic party in control Of Con-
gress defeated the proposal introduced
by republican minority leaders to give
women full citizenship under the Con-
stitution, and that Judge Hull. then in
the House, voted consistently against
it. Furthermore, that when the repub-
licans came into power and an extra
session was called. in two days the re-
publican House passed the equal suf-
frage resolution, Judge Hull again vot-
ing against it.
The next move in this game is await
ed with keen interest.
