Results of the Primaries.

Yesterdays primaries in New 1er-
dent Coolidge's lead over his opponent,
Senator Hiram w. Johnson Of Cali
fornia, to a point which gives the
President 673 delegates, or 11S more
than the number requisite for nomina-
ton. The Californian's defeat in the
two states was overwhelming. and
showed a remarkable change in form
among the voters in New Jersey in
four years. There was no question
about the President carrying Pennsyl-
vania for the nomination.
The side-line interest in the outcome
in Pennsylvania was the crushing de-
feat of Gov. Pinchot for delegate at
large. He was overcome by Ralph
Beaver Strassburger of Norristown.
This was attributed to the opposition
to the governor OF Representative
Ware, leader of the regular Republican
organization, which is opposed to some
of Gov. Pinchot's administrative poll
cies. The governor lays it 10 the OPP
state, with which he is at war. Gov.
Pinchot is on record as saying he will
loyalty support President Coolidge in
the campaign.
The onward march of the Coolidge
forces throughout the country, un-
checked thus far save in South Dakota,
raises the question whether Senator
Johnson's name will be presented to
the convention. The question might
we'll be asked. What is the useo 1t
may be that ne hopes to have the SUP
port of Senator La Follettes forces to
assist him at least TO make a showing
in the roll call of the states, but that
is doubtful. There is a strong feeling
strong enough physically, may be hold
ing off to head third party.
Senator Johnson's future course may
be influenced by the outcome of the
California primaries May 6. If he
should lose his own state, which is a
possibility. since the contest is admit
tedly close. there would be little en-
courayement for him to bolt the Re
publican ticket. Certainly the action
of the voters thus far gives him no
encouragement in any quarter Of sub
stantial support if he should bolt.

Population, Palms and President.

With reference to the anti-hand-
shaking order just put in force at the
White House it has been contended
that every man, woman and child
in the United States should have the
right to come to Washington and
touch the presidential palm at least
once. Suppose all Of the American
people tried to do it? Let us figure
a moment. According to the census
of 1920--which for purposes Of repre-.
sentative apportonment Congress has
ignored thus far--there are los, ,000, 900
people in the continental United
States. There are 365 days in a year
and four years in a presidential term,
or in single term 1.450 days. To
receive all of the Jos 5,o0o, 900 people in
the course of one term a President
would have to shake hands with no
less than $4,000 a day. This would
be at the rate Of 5000 an hour. or
fifty a minute. That would mean that
the people would be going past at al
most trot twenty -four hours at a
stretch for the entire four years. Or
suppose a man were to stay eight
years in Office and the reception of the
entire population would be extended
to that period? He could then take
them on at the rate Of twenty-five a
minute and dispose Of them in the
course Of the 1920 days Of his admin
istration, working without remission.
Or put it another way: Suppose every
one of the people Of this country came
to Washington once in ten years?

Another Conference Proposed.

President Coolidge's proposal of an
other conference to seek limitation Of
ornaments following a certain def
mite settlement Of German reparations
has proved to be the most important
feature Of his New York address yes
terday. 1t is regarded as a new move
for world peace, especially as it in
cludes suggestion that such a con-
ference should initiate plans for
codification of international law. In
view of the fact that the President
did not strongly stress the world court
suggestion, but merely stood by the
previous proposal of President Hard
ing, which he repeated in December,
this is expected TO signify that Mr..
Coolidge regards the arms limitation
and disqualification plan as more
promising OF success.
This proposal is predicated upon the
assumption that preliminary inquiries
would disclose that such a plan would
meet with sympathetic response
There is no reason to question gen.
eral response to an invitation by the
United States to talk over again the
matter of arms limitation and codifi-
cation. Attendance upon such a con-
ference would not in itself be a pledge
of concurrence. None of the govern
ments that were represented in the
Washington conference of 1921 was
oh t.,l to Of
them. could have withdrawn.
Mr.. Coolidge's primary condition in
this matter is that the conference
should wait upon definite settlement
problem solved by the adoption of a
workable plan. in good faith, there
will, with the possible exception of
Russia, be no menace of war in evil
dence. The reparations question is
the most serious and difficult now in
the International field. That adjust
meut effected, the nations could well
with profit turn to the matter of a
further consideration of armaments.
All such international assemblages
are helpful. They make for better
understanding. They are constructive.
True, there have been meetings Of the
nations before the world war and all
the understandings that had been ef-
fected were swept aside and destroyed
by the treachery of one power. That
may happen again. But certainly no
advance toward peace and the settle
ment of international disputes by ju-
dicial rather than military methods
will be made unless the nations are
brought together, unless formulas are
devised and adopted for mutually Of
concession and pledges of good faith.
At all events, the proposal is made
tentatively and made in good time. 1t
will evoke discussion. It will pos
sibly develop opposition. 1t will GER
-tainly be strongly supported here and
abroad. and Mr.. Coolidge is to be
complimented upon having advanced
it in this good season.

times.
That which is surprising in this mat
ter is that We have so long delayed to
apply correctives, yet 1t is clear that
we are coming to the point where the
health of the child is to be a state af-
fair and the health of the child at pub
lie school particularly so. 1t was not
long ago that schooling and health
were held to be private affairs. 1t was
not understood that it was the busi-
ness of government to teach children
to read and write. nor the business of
government to seek out physical de-
fects OF children and remedy them.
In some foreign countries, and in some
of our states, the government charges
itself to do what is possible to pre-
serve and improve the health of chill
dren at public school. In some states
the defects are noted and remedies APP
piled. In other states, after noting
the defects. the matter is referred to
parents. Some states are go back
ward that if the child is able to carry
on" with his lessons he is rated as
well" and if he is sick it is Il matter
for his family to attend to.
The tendency is that city or state
authorities shall not only school the
child and teach him, among many
things. the ways of health. but shall
also find and correct his physical de-
fects where, in the light of science,
those defects can be corrected. The
state should strive not only to make
better schooled Americans, but Amer

No Anti Citizenship Move.
V. S. McClatchy Corrects State
ment Made in The Star.
Co the Editn1 of The Star.

To the Editor or Inc STAR:
Frederic William Vile, in An ar
ticle in The Star April 81, refers to
luncheon in New York attended by
number Of newspaper men at
which DR.. Sidney Guiick and the
writer engaged in a friendly discus
sion on the Japanese immigration
problem. Mr.. VILE states that, though
the proceedings were private" ''Mr.
McClatchy has summarized for publi
cation a. debate between himself and
DR.. Sidney l.. Gulick, ETC." He then
credits me with the statement that
a new movement has been inaugu-
rated, in which presumably / am
active, to secure adoption of a con-
stitutional amendment which will
withhold in the future the privilege
of American citizenship from children
born in this country to aliens ineligi-
BILE to citizenship under our laws,
and that a campaign along those
lines is to be pushed at. once.
Mr.. Vile has been misinformed in
this particular matter. 1 have neither
ma1e a summary of that discussion
for. publication nor have I made any
