Wants Streets Made Safe.
Autos Menace to School Chill
dren, Reader Declares.
To the Editor OF The Star:

To the Editor or Inc star;
/ share the delight of thousands of
other people who rejoice that the
magnificent Memorial Bridge and it's
attendant improvements are really
under way, but II the far-seeing Lin
coin could voice his thought, would
II not be something like this: "Yes,
make Washington beautiful, but first
of all make it safe, especially for
the children, SO that they may live
to enjoy it's beauty along with other
citizens of this great Republic"
1t seems to the writer that it is a
great mistake to leave children un-
protected as they are in the vicinity
of many, if not all, OF our schools.
One of these on Massachusetts ave
nue. near the Union Station, is some
thing OF a death trap regarding its
approach, located as il is on tri-
angle between two streets. Little
ones of tender years cross the wide
avenue with no guarantee of safety,
where an adult has to be on the alert
every second of time. Having fire.
quent occasion to pass that way, /
have noticed only a very few times
an officer there to protect them from
the swift auto traffic to and from the
station. IL there are not sufficient
funds to pay for police protection at
this point, there eould at least be a
passageway marked with broad
white lines with the word school be-
tween them and large traffic signs
giving positive warning that children
must be allowed to cross in safety.
Many of these signs state that 80
persons were killed during the year
1924, but nothing Is said about the
little sufferers In hospitals and homes,
many of whom may never be Well
again, or may be manned for life.
1t has been the subject of remark
that the majority of children show
remarkable judgment In crossing
streets, but sometimes after having
once started across, they have to run,
as We older ones do occasionally.
What If one of them should trip and
fall right in the path OF approaching
machines. Only once have ! seen a
motorist pause and beckon to chill
dren to cross over and that time
bottom of my heart.
The children have a right to live,
and they have a right to protection
IN going to and from school. Also,
the mothers who send them out each
day have a right to alieviation from
the strain incidental to the dangers
of these timss. Starting for school
in the bright, fresh morning should
be a happy, joyous thing, but how
can it be to the mother who-realizes
that her little ones may walk into
the jaws of death before she, sees
them again? ;5

The Conflict in Foreign Trade.

dangers OF competition from our
European rivals in the leading over.
seas markets constitute the outstand-
ing feature of the present interna-
tional trade situation in the coming
director of the United States Bureau
Of Foreign and Domestic Commerce,
told the American Manufacturers and
Export Association at a luncheon in
however, been circulated much misin-
formation on the subject. bordering in
some cases on near panic and hysteria
inspired in a few outstan nding in
stances by our competitors them
selves.
He finds that there are any number
of indications of a precisely compara-
BILE fear on the part of our European
rivals as to their prospects in the face
Of increasing American competitive eff
forts. The foreigners are evidently
seeking for some plausible explanation
OF the persistence of American for
eign trade success in spite of the six
years in which Europe has had the op-
portunity to regain its overseas mar
kets.
Mr.. Klein admonished his hearers to
bear in mind that this is by no means
the first instance of vigorous competi-
tion overseas. The period Immediately
before the war, he said. was marked
nv int
and the outsta nding conclusion should
unmistakably be encoura ging to the
American foreign trade community.
He said that not only were we holding
our own. especially during the years
1910 and 1913, but in such highly com
petitive areas as countries of South
America we were rapidly overtaking
our two rivals.
The speaker explained that the
fundamental question which lies at
the bottom of any accurate appraisal
of the present competitive situation is
not so much the problem of the rela-
tive strength of the leading partici-
rants in the contest as it is In the
probable expansion of the purchasing
power OF the more highly competitive
markets. Examining the more alarm
ing prophecies as to the dangers to
our export trade from intensified Eu-
ropean competition, it is found, he
went on to say, that they proceed in
almost every case from the assump-
ton that the trade of the competitive
areas has already reached a point of
nearly complete saturation, and that
the issue is simply one of the relative
strength of the three leading con-
| testants as to- which will gain a pre-
dominant position.
His advice to the American manu-
facturers and exporters is to leave the
extraordinary risk of price gambling
to our competitors. and adhere to
those sound principles which have al
ways been the basis of successful mer-
chandising at home and abroad-good
quality, just terms, implicit COM
pliance with commitments on delivery
and development Of the best produc-
ton technique. and. above all. not to
be stampeded by any sudden or mo-
mentary shifts in the trade current.

The Peach Blossom Festival.

A championship base ball game; a
settlement as to who is to wear the
worlds heavyweight boxing crown; a
ternational polo match, are recognized
by. the American public as occasions
for the gathering Of great crowds. The
Passion Play" at Oberammergau, the
and once upon a time the inaugura-
ton of a President OF the United
States have been known to attract to
the communities where they are held
thousands of visitors. The love of
sport or art or music or country has
ever lured men and women to make
pilgrimage in its interest. And today
the peach blossom festival at the little
town of Fort Valley, Ga, is coming to
take its place with the more familiar
anniversaries.
Starting four years ago as modest
community enterprise. this festival
has grown by leaps and bounds until
this year, on the 10Th and Goth Of
March, there gathered at Fort Valley
upward OF 10000 visitors-more than
10 times the number OF the inhabitants
OF that small yet thriving town. Fort
vailey is situated at the heart Of the
great peach-growing territory OF
Georgia, and IL the recognized 'teapi.
tai Of that section. The festival Is
synchronized with the Towering of the
surrounding orchards. And from East
and West and North and South there
gathered there this year an army Of
visitors to pay homage to the fragrant
loveliness Of the bnrgeoning valley.
There was, OF course, O. pageant, ad.

a PSYCHOLOGIST would call 1t.
There is a kind of lighthouse "nlch
differs from the conventional idea OIL
an illuminated tower on a lonely OF
dangerous spot which carries hght
and hone to men who otherwise "oulu
have none and who might never come
into port, and of this light any "ash-

own home, which was dedicated by
Marshal Foch, and the title is vested
in the F'ranco-American Committee.
The next and last step is the raising
of an endowment fund which will per-
petuate the institution.
The sum estimated as needed to
keep this lighthouse shining out un-
bIinkingly and without ceasing across
the wastes of blackness for the bene-
fit of those who, as Helen Keller,
herself most famous and most under
standing of blind persons, points out,
still have all the tastes, desires, em-
bitions and passions of the clear
sighted, is s50o.o00. OF this the
French have undertaken to raise
$4,000. A gift of $50 will make any
Washingtonian keeper of this light
for an hour. That is at the rate of
81 a minute. Let the reader close
his eyes and keep them closed for
so minutes. When he opens them
to the glorious light Of day a gift
of $50 will have receded in those
fortunate eyes until it seems trining

Nothing in Excess.

The Coolidge administration is wise
ly practicing economy-as well as
preaching it. Cuts in governmental
expenditures in order to get back to
the normalcy demanded by the late
President Harding have been drastic
Thousands of employees have been
separated from the Government serv'
ice, whose employment was made
necessary during the rush Of war
business. New ventures have been
laid aside wisely until more propitious
times.
The ancient Greeks had among
their wise sayings, Nothing in ex
cess" Just as expenditures for gov
ernmental purposes may become ex
cessive, it is conceivable that econ
omy in expenditures for the Govern.
ment may also become excessive
There is an irreducible minimum be-
yond which the curtailment of Gov.
ernment expenditures may not &c
without the country and the people
suffering. 1t may not be amiss at
aearn how close to this minimum we
have arrived.
The appropriations for the next
fiscal year are, in round numbers,
s3.s37 ,ooo, 600. A tidy sum. A stag
gering sum from the point Of view
of 1913 and IA. But what goes into
this s3,e37 100000 Appropriation? 1t
includes not only the so-calIed ordi.
nary expenditures of the Government,
but also the expenditures for the Post
Office Department, which are almost
offset by the postal revenues. 1t in
cludes also the tremendous sums
which must be paid out in interest
on the public debt-the war debt in
great part. 1t includes the vast sums
which go into the support of the
Veterans Bureau and the disabled
soldiers and sailors ard, in part, the
