A ZERO CRUSADER

Urban LedouX-they call him Mr..
Zero in New York-once lived in
Biddeford. 1t is said Of him that he
would work and give away to poor
people much of what he earned, in
those days; that some thought him
impractical and doubted the value Of
his giving. Evidently he draws no
fine distinctions in his giving, that
he is very dramatic in his exploits,
though the fact that he remains out
of sight for long periods when he
seems to seek no publicity, may sug-
GeSt that his dramatics are in a
measure at least a part of his uolicy
to attract public attention to actual,
o. what he believes to be actual con-
ditions. Anyhow, much of the i'm
practicable may receive sympathetic
consideration when it is found in one
who gives of his and of himself as
he asks others to do.
1t IS not difficult to understand
that the methods LedouX uses are
likely to give a wrong impression
and may eXaggerate rather than al
leviate the circumstances of those
whom he seeks to help. 1t was said
by one of the New York editors that
there was no need of such methods,
that the Salvation Army was caring
for many, many more than Ledoux
might hope to do. Others said there
was not the amount Of unemploy-
ment he stated, that the professedly
poor would not apply at the munich
pal agencies because they did not
wish to work for their food and
lodging. A statement. however, by
one of the Salvation Army leaders
declares there are nearly half a mil
lion out Of work in that city, and
yet we hear advocates of letting i'm
migrants in to do our work. Some
one is at fault in their reckoning. but
we do not expect Mr.. Ledoux will be
able to do much if anything to COR
rect 1t, yet one hesitates to estimate
his efforts at zero.

Administration officials have long

The solution was found in the gall

As each freshman furnishes his

that forms the permanent liaison be-

guilty Of cutting around. Of taking
those chances which so upset travel
and are prolific source Of danger to
Ill concerned.
Some complain that they were I'M

perhaps. felt that the public con-
venience was not being sufficiently
regarded. Here question might arise,
does tho State make provision for
such IN arrangement, what latitude
do employees have under such condi-
tions? The fact remains that all ap-
plicants had, with very few excep-
tons, time in which to obtain their
plates. ana II they did not are not
in consequence excusable for suiting
disregard OF the law to their own
convenience.
The need of uniformity in enforce
ing the law Is brought out by these
conditions. In some courts the Of
tenders paid a nominal fine; in some
others they were let go. We believe
tho former courts are to be COM
mended and the latter to be criti-
cised. Proper enforcement of law
for tho future is helped by the for
mer practice and receives material
injury in the latter. There is said to
be reason in all things, but unless
there be some uniformity in apply
ing, It Is likely to become unreason-
able. However, none of the COM
plainants would expect to keep his
house warm without fuel or run his
car without gas. If he is careless
enough not to provide himself with
fuel does he go about criticising any,
body? On the contrary doesn't he
smile fatuously or curse hopelessly-
and avoid telling his neighbors?
Why shouldn't he register his car as
promptly as he pays his income tax?
Ofhciousness Is not to be encour-
aged. but rigid holding Of the delin-
Quents to the legitimate results of
their own neglect and apparent in
difference Is commendable. So in
process Of time they may come to a
realizing sense Of their responsible
tiles as motorists. Such a compre.
nension ought to be very helpful in
relieving the deplorable and unnec-
essary recklessness that is a serious
menace to the public, including the
motorists themselves.
