PoliceWomen.

Among the numerous conventions
in Washington is that of policewomen
representing forty cities in the United
States. 1t may be that there are cities
in the United States employing police
women and which are not represented
in the convention, but that is not
brought out in the news accounts.
That there should be in Washington
policewomen from forty cities is suf-
ficient evidence of the growth Of an
idea which was entertained by very
small number of persons a few years
ago and was considered as a good deal
of joke by many. The manner in
which a policewoman could be useful
to the community was understood by
@ certain class of advanced thinkers
for a number of years before the .ex-
pertinent could be tried, and it is prob
ably true that there are now large
numbers of people who do not clearly
understand the ways in which police
women may be and are valuable to a
city. That the policewoman has made
headway in forty cities in this coun-
try shows that there is vitality in the
idea, and it is fair to assume that the
policewomen are proving their worth
to the communities they serve.

Damned Either Way.

Gov. Alfred Il. Smith OF New York,

Never was truer word spoken. II he

all wet-will feel that he has given
the sharpest blow yet delivered at the
spirit of the eighteenth amendment
and the act Of Congress carrying 1t
into effect. The dry sentiment Of the
nation. which Is believed to be the pre-
ponderant thought. will share in the
regret and dismay which will follow
the governors action.
If he vetoes the bill he will be open

A Safety Stop Proof.

A train on the Long Island railroad
scheduled to stop at Central Islip
dashed through that station at rate
of sixty miles an hour last night filled
with people on their way to New York
to attend the theaters. The conductor,
realizing that something was wrong,
signaled the engineer and got no re-
sponse The train dashed on, passing
a grade crossing at unslackened speed
and without sounding the whistle. The
conductor leaned out from platform
and saw the engineers shoulder and
the back Of his head at the cab window.
He threw on the emergency brakes
and the train was brought to a halt.
The fireman, at work on the other side
Of the cab, was thus apprised Of an
unwt nted situation, and making his
way around found the engineer un-
cons ious in his seat. He died within
q. few minutes.

The Drug Evil.

The drug evil has played a prom
tnent part in discussion by delegates
to the thirty eighth annual conference
of state and provincial health authori-
ties of North America in session at
Washington. 1t has been said that
there is one drug addict to every 500
persons in the United States. as far as
the number can be estimated, and that
'the traffic in narcotic drugs shows
the United States to be the largest
consuming country. with an average
of thirty-siX grains of opium per
capita, as contrasted with one grain in
Italy, two in Germany, three in
- holland
This is q startling presentment.
There is no doubt that it is startling
to the great mass Of housekeeping,
churchgoing and law-abiding people
of Washington. 1t Is probable that
they have but little understanding of
the magnitude of the evil. They Were
familiar with the evil of drunkenness
because that was an evil of more
public nature. The narcotic evil is
more under c'-'er. The dope fiend'
does not otter make a public spectacle
of himself. as the drunkard did.
Washington people have read of the
growth Of the drug evil, but perhaps
there was often the thought in their
minds that the matter was exaggerat-
rS Il Il -,
certain very low classes Of people In
the closely populated cities. 1t seemed
to them that the vice was very far
from their homes, and that it could
never come near them.
The learned and experienced men in
their meeting at Washington tell what
may be assumed to be facts about this
evil, and these facts are shocking.
They prepare a plan Of campaign for
combating the vice, and their opin-
ions and their decision should be fol-
lowed. Public opinion should be solid
ly behind them. The committee on
drug addiction considers it necessary
that there be enacted state narcotic
laws to supplement the Harrison fed
eral anti.narcotic law; that there be
compulsory and voluntary commit
ment of addicts; that there be facili-
ties for treating addicts at all state
hospitals and penal institutions; that
smuggling be prevented as far as pos
sible by International agreement, and
that the manufacture of heroin be pro-
hibited.
The case seems to be serious, and
no pains should be spared toward
bringing back addicts to health and
self-respect and in taking all meas
ures possible that persons not addicted
to the pernicious habit shall not con-
tract it.

Miss Gwynn's Loss Felt.
Had Given Forty Years of Life

tn The Editor Of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
The death of Miss Mary Gwynn. for
more than forty years resident or
Washington, leaves a vacancy in its
social life and charitable activities
that must long remain untitled. and
brings deep and lasting sorrow to
wide circle of devoted friends and
hundreds of sufferers whose lives
have been frightened and health es-
tablished by her loving ministrations
and unwearying care. ....
In 1904 Miss Gwynne Joined the

there was even a more crying need

she founded and became the head or
the Infant Welfare Association. Dur

now, when she has laid 1t down, she

Mussolini and Suffrage

MuSSOlini. premier of Italy, has been
often called the man of the hour. But
he is qualifying as the man of the
hour yet to come. He seems to keep a
jump ahead. His latest demonstration
of progressiveness is related in a dis
patch from Rome which tells Of his
declaration at the opening session OF
the International Suffrage Alliance
Congress that his government will ac.
cord the vote to certain categories of
women in Italy.
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, the
president of the alliance, put the mat.
ter up squarely to the premier in her
speech opening the congress. Ad

man in the world today" who stands
for order. unity, patriotism. for bet

she asked the government If Italy

Although much depends upon the
"categories" Of women whom Mus.
solini has in mind to franchise, yet
great gain is made for the cause of
woman suffrage by any recognition of
women as citizens in that country.
Heretofore the women have taken but
little part in Italian affairs openly, but
during the war they were active in
patriotic endeavors, in what in other
lands came to be known as war
work." and recently they have been
growing more politically conscious
and organizing for enfranchisement
The holding of the international suf
frage congress at Rome was certain
to evoke a demand. Mussolini is smart
enough to get ahead of that demand.
He meets it before it is formulated. 1t
thus ceases to be an issue as far as he
is concerned.
This performance is characteristic
of Mussolini. He was once a socialist.
The war taught him that socialism is
a mistaken policy, that nationalism is
the only sound basis for government.
He changed from a socialist to ultra
nationalist. He found the government
In a sad state of confusion and indie
cision, weakness and compromise with
the forces of dissolution. He organized
the fascist and effected a bloodless
complete revolution. He has put Italy
on its feet. His present move for the
enfranchisement Of the women is one
of his wisest acts.
