Women Who Plot.

They say that the women want to
bring back the German monarchy. The
ex-Kaiser's wife, Princess Hermine,
tours Europe intriguing for re-estab-
lishment of kaiserdom. The spouse of
the once Crown Prince of Germany Is
similarly active. Another who schemes
is the wife Of Crown Prince Rpprecht
of Bavaria, Princess Antoinette of
Luxembourg. She thinks her husband,
long a rival of the house Of Hohenzol-
lern, should be Emperor.
The fourth is ex-Empress Zita of
Austria Hungary. Her son Otto is IA
years old. She has six other children.
She would like to see Otto on the
throne of Hungary. She lifts high the
banners Of Hapsburg. She thinks that
Admiral Horthy should good -naturedly
give way to her ambitions and resign
his direction of Hungarian affairs.
In all this feminine plotting there Is
no proposal Of gun or poison gas. The
women love the clothes and pomp of
militarism rather than militarism It.
SELF They love the glitter and the
dress of court life. They love the
adulation.
But the pleas of the quartet of royal
feminine schemers in Europe sound a
good deal like a call back into that
yesterday to which people who have
had enough of kings will not willing.

Tammany Rejects Hylan.

When Mayor Hylan of New York
the other day declared that he would
abide by the primary result if he was
named as a candidate for the nomina-
ton by a majority of the party lead
ers of the big city, his meaning was
clear. He would be regular" only If
he was assured the nomination, and
by inference that meant that if de-
feated in the primary he would run
an an independent candidate.
Tammany has called him on this
announcement and yesterday the lead
ers of Manhattan and the Bronx
named a candidate for the primaries
to oppose Hylan. who will doubtless be
forthwith formally named by the lead
ers of Brooklyn, Queens and Rich
mond. Statae Senator James j. Walk
err has been designated as the organ
ization candidate, and he has been in.
dorsed, with others on the slate, as
far as it has been announced. by the

Taking Profit Out of War

People who peer suspiciously a the
whole world, who sniff conspiracies
everywhere. who believe that wars are
fomented by financial interests for
the purpose of making profits. per-
haps will not be satisfied with the in
formation that Bernard NJ. Baruch has
agreed to give from $3.50 900 to $500 900
to finance a three-year study of war
profiteering and its effect on wars. For
Mr.. Baruch is a ulti-millionaire. OBJ
viously TO the suspicious breed. he
ought to be in favor of war profiteer-
ing and ought to be doing everything
that he can to keep the methods of
prof1teering hidden. Therefore. there
is something suspicious about his gift,

mon sense. He knows that there is
profiteering in wars, that there is not
as much Of II as some people believe,
and that, regardless of whether profit
eering has any effect on wars and the
making Of wars, there are a great
many who believe il has an enormous
and sinister effect. Therefore he is
giving money to throw light on the
subject, to get at the truth. so that
all the world may know just exactly
what effect profiteerfng has. Again.
he knows that the cry of many people
for taking the profit out Of war" has
its basis in a commendable idealism.

Washington and Baltimore and Wash
ington and suburban traffic should not
be rerouted and the boulevard rail
road crossing abandoned. That would
be an especial gain for Hyattsville
north and west of the railroad and
nue. in the District and on the extern
sion from the District line to Hyatts-
Vile. 1t would not be so good for
property owners on the Washington
Baltimore boulevard in the District
and for communities on it between the
District and Hyattsville. The District
has spent a large sum of money in
widening and paving its part of the
boulevard for the accommodation Of
intercity and suburban traffic. Settle
ments have grown along the road
partly because it is a great traffic way.
Bladensburg and communities east of
II have grown and wofited because
they were on or close to the boule-
ward, and rerOuting traffic by an 'ex-
tension Of Rhode Island avenue and
closing the crossing at Hyattsville
would leave these places on a read
which would be used mainly for local
traffic between them and Washington.
The Plan would sidetrack communities
which are now on a through road.
There would he sundry advantages
in rerouting traffic by Rhode Island
avenue and a Maryland extension of it
to Hyattsville. 1t is believed by many
that the evil of the grade crossing at
Hyattsville should be cured. no matter
how. Most of the people of Washing
ton are interested in getting rid of
the crossing, but that part of our
population between Maryland avenue
and Fifteenth street and along the
boulevard from the District to Hyotts
vile protest against being put on a
back road. 1t is very largely a Mary.
land question. and it is likely that the
people in the Bladensburg and Hyatts-
vile sections will solve it.

The Hyattsville Grade Crossing.

The point at which the Washington
Baltimore boulevard crosses the Balti-
more and Ohio Railroad at Hyattsville
is one of the most dangerous grade
crossings in the Washington neighbor-
hood. The railroad company has sta
toned watchmen there, erected gates
and set signal lights and bells.
Streams of autos cross several tracks
of the railroad diagonally. and
drivers view of the railroad is hin
dered by the railroad station and
often obscured by freight cars at rest.
There has been a general demand that
the grade crossing be eliminated by
making the railroad and the boulevard
intersect at different levels.
At a large public meeting at
Hyattsville it was the majority sense
that the grade crossing should be
abolished by extending Rhode Island
avenue from the District line to
Hyattsville, where it would connect
with the Washington-Baltim boule-
ward without crossing the railroad. If
this were done the grade crossing
would be closed to vehicular traffic
and a way provided for pedestrians
across the tracks.
A very great majority Of persons
who feel any concern in this matter
would welcome the abolition OF the
Hyattsville grade crossing by making
1t unnecessary that the public use it,
the crossing would be a decided gain.

The other is the active way. You

slate OF other candidates.
Thus the issue Is drawn. 1t Is Tam

against McCooey and the other bor-
oughs. f,Hylan is nominated at the
primary next month he will be regu-
lar. If he is defeated he will probably
run as an independent. If he is nomi-
mated he will not command the full
support of Tammany at the polls in
November. If he bolts the primary
nomination he will divide the Demo
cratic vote and open the way to pos
sible Republican mayor.
Last November the Democratic vote
in Greater New York for the governor

tan, 326, 1853: Bronx. 159, ,005, or total
in those boroughs Of S5,75s; Brooklyn,
314 $40; Queens, 1889; Richmond,

oughs of 438,464. This indicates an
anti-Hylan strength, ii the boroughs
