fenses were built roads over which
troops could be moved safe from
observation from an enemy beyond the
lines. Timber was cut away for two
miles in front of the guns, that the
enemy should find no cover Of that
kind. Houses were burned or marked
for demolition on aSproach OF an
enemy. Virginia roads were guarded
and signal towers built many miles
beyond the forts. The work OF strength
ening the defense system was still in
progress when news of the surrender
at Appomattox came to Washington.
The fort drive would lead pilgrims
to many hilltops and ridge crests
where forts stood and where in some
cases their ruins lie. The idea Of i'm
proving existing roads and building
some short roads to connect fort ruins
and fort sites was worked out by Capt.
John T.. Wood, assistant engineer
Commissioner OF the District, and a
few days ago the Commission of Fine
Arts went over the route. The opinion
of the Fine Arts Commission has not
been published, but citizens feel easy
in their minds that it will approve,
and that means will be obtained for
making the plan fact.

Food Gift to Germany.

Sincere doubt exists in many minds
as to the wisdom Of the gift Of $40, ,0O0,-
600 which the House voted yesterday
for tho purchase of foodstuffs for Ger
many, but apparently it was the view
Of the lawmakers that it were better
to err on the side of generosity rather
than to permit that women and chill
assistance was withheld. Hunger al
ways has made an irresistible appeal
to American sentiment, and a hungry
German child is just as hungry as a
child of any other nationality. What
ever may have been the sins OF the
German rulers, the German children
were responsible neither for the war
nor for its frightfulness, and the time
has not yet come when the American
people are ready to sentence the inno-
cent TO share the punishment of the
guilty.
1t was a telling argument against
the appropriation that many millions
Of German wealth is sequestered out
side Of Germany and should have been
used for the purchase OF foodstuffs
before an appeal to charity. This
argument was telling, because beyond
a doubt it is true. 1t also undoubtedly
is true that there is in Germany suf-
ficient food to prevent starvation were
it equitably distributed. These facts
make it seem rather inconsistent that
money taxed from American taxpayers
should be voted for German relief,
but they do not alter the paramount
fact that neither sequestered wealth
nor boarded foodstuffs will lessen
hunger pangs unless they are made
available for that purpose,
If the Senate concurs in the House
bill, and the money is appropriated.
the American people will not begrudge
the gift, but the effect is likely to be a
considerable stiffening OF sentiment
in favor of making the German gov
ernment and the German industrialiSts
toe the scratch. II American bounty
must be called upon to save German
women and children from starvation
II ID lOO ~ SApCSI IIlCLe Will bt
continued patience with German eva
sion and double-dealing. For it un-
doubtedly is a fact that had the rulers
Of Germany, official and non-official,
played the game fairly there would not
exist in Germany today conditions
which make necessary an appeal to
American charity.

merce not long ago brought together
paid out by the government to its en-
ployes in Washington each month.
There are $1,000 federal government
employees in the District and 9,7o0 en-
ployes Of the District government.
Treasury officials have estimated that
about $10e. 100000 is earned in the
District annually by federal and Dis
trict employees. Two and a half per
cent Of that earned by federal en-
ployes goes into the retirement fund,
and a part of this is paid to retired
employees, most of whom remain in the
District.
Thus q large and steady flow OF
money is disbursed by the government
meeting all the needs OF the govern
ment and District employees and their
families is a great industry in itself.
OF course, all the money paid out does
not remain here. a large part of it
may be spent here by the government
employees, but those industries which
supply their needs draw their supplies
from other sections Of the country and
help to spread prosperity throughout
the land.
Many OF the industrial cities are
more nearly Notwithstanding" than
Washington, and this is one reason we
should be more industrious or indus
trial than we are. We ought to pro.
duce a larger proportion of our sup.
plies, and We should have a larger
share Of the trade of supplying the
needs of the population that is natu-
rally or geographically tributary to
US. In this there ise no thought that
we should wall ourselves up and seek
to produce all the goods we need, but
i. is the practice of cities to engage In
numerous industries for supplying the
market at their doors.

Your Good Luck and
Mine
BY JOHN CARLYLE

How would you like to walk thirty
miles to market over bad roads, prod
ding an overburdened donkey? And
all for a profit of Is cents?
II you were woman it might seem
even more difficult Probably it would
not, for women can endure more
hardship than men. They can carry
heavier burdens with less complaint.
1 have lately spent some sadly in
teresting days in the island of Haiti.
the black republic of the West Indies.
They were interesting days because
they contained new and strange ex-
periences. They were sad because the
WretchednesS and the poverty of SO
many of the pepole of that island re-
public are beyond adequate descrip-
tion.
1t is true that both women and men
walk even more than thirty miles to
bring a little bundle of vegetables to
be laid in the dust of the market place
in front Of the gaudy cathedral
A thin, black woman laboriously
picked up beans out of the dirt where
she had spilled them. When they
were all picked up She had about a
cupfu. Having so little to sell, the
poor woman could not afford to lose
even bean.
1 threw a dime into the air in this
same market place. Instantly more
than q dozen men, boys and girls
were fighting desperately before my
eyes. Their bodies struck the earth
with hard thumps. A dime is dime,
and can be lived on for more than a
day.
Few of the peoples of the earth are
capable of selfgovernment We prove
that over and over again in America.
Democracy functions feebly at best
Democracy functions far more
feebly in Haiti, though it is on the
up grade. 1t Is an experiment in self
government where the people are not
ready fer it. The land is rich and
fertile. But rich and fertile land can
not make a comfortable people when
less than 10 per cent can read and
write.
Here in America we have schools
and we have the free opportunity to
attend them. America may not be a
land of equal opportunity for all. The
street corner preachers may be right
about that But it is a land of amaz-
ing opportunity even for the humblest
lin comparison, not only with the
black republic of Haiti, but in COM
parison with other nations that strug-
gle feebly in the darkness of poverty
and illiteracy.
Be glad you happen to have been
born in America And if you are an
American and don't get ahead, you
have no right to the pursuit of SYM
pathy.
