STOPPING THE RIFF WAR

Efforts of tho French, the span ish and the RinIans to call q halt in the warfare in Morocco ar" commcndablc, although there is evidence the leaders are finding il difficult to agree upon terms.
 The Moroccan tangle from the first has been frightfully expensive In both money and lives, with nothing but prestige and glory to gain. The final outcome probably will be that all three sides will re- turn to the territory or spheres of influence they had at the beginning and try to forget 1t. The Rifiian triangle will then join the multi tude Of other blunders that nations and peoples are willing to forget except the kin and relatives of those innumerable warriors who fall 10 return.

ONE THING AT A TIME

George F.. Brennan, Democratic boss of Illinois. is a sort of Bar mum in politics or was it some other sage wisccrackcr who said everything in America is a nine days wonder "nd then is forgot ten?
 Well, anyway. Boss Brennan has contributed a so!omon-like obser- vation in tho field of politics that is of interest 10 statesmen and ward workers alt}o,
 Brennan has D theory that the American voter can comprehend exactly one issue at time, and the politician or statesman who can get on the right side" Of that issue has the voter hy the scruii of the neck and can push him into the voting booth and virtually dic- tate exactly how 10 eNerclSe me i God-eiycn and democratic function Of elccttng the hoss's syncophan's. or perhaps the boss himself. 1 Seems logical. too. Everyone who has followed elections longer than ton years has seen it work with the accuracy of astronomical mathe- matics.
 The politician who can excite the voter about one big issue-usuaily a manufactured issue - can at the same time get him 10 vote foi other issues he actually may detesI like poison. These latter issues ar' jok,rs attached 10 the "one big is sue" but the real joker is the politician or statesman pulling the strings operating the one big issue that dazzles the voter

CARTS RETIREMENT

Remarks of Judge Ebert H. Gary at the annual meeting of the L. S. Steel corporation having been received by many of his hearers as an intimation he intends to re- tire as chairman of the big cor poration at any early date, it is meet to consider how efficiently the steel company was organized and how we'll it was built up to its dominating position of today.
 Manufacturing steel Is a huge process and there Is much difficult and rough work connected with 1t. When the steel corporation was formed there were criticisms of the intention and its officials were by no means regarded as public philanthroptsts Whether the billion dollar concern has in every sense justified itself may be a matter Of opinion; yet it can scarcely be de- nied that whatever it's defects may have been at one time it has inn proved with age.
 The dominating personality Of Judge Gary has been a melloWing factor in concessions in its meth ods to the power of public opin- ion. When President Harding called him to the White House and told him of mill work, Gary laid his cards on the table, told how diff cult it was to make change in q continuous phase of the steel in dustry, but eventually ordered tho -. change made. And no doubt he i: glad of il,
 When Ida N. Tarbul a genera. ton ago wrathfully wrote up tho history of standard oil the stec corporation was not yet formed. ~ few years ago when she pubIishct her biography of Judge Gary l was Of Q complimentary natur' rather than an orgy of criticism as was her previous work.
 i Taken by and large, Judge Gar has done the best he could do witt a huge undertaking. Whatcve | mistakes were made have been rec tifed for the most part and ther Is very little left in the operation of tho huge concern that does no compare favorably with the meth ods of the best Of our corporations

NOT A CRIME COURT

Refusal of the |. S. Supreme court to review the cases of Will liam S. silkworth, former president of the New York Consolidated stock exchange. and others, who were convicted of sperating q bucket shop intended to defraud thes public, again emphasized the reluctance of our chief tribunal to identify itself with the considera- ton of purely criminal cases.
 The highest court in the land has never failed to take cogniaance of crime cases when a great principle was at stake; but it has consistent ly refused to function as an ap- pollato court for ordinary crime cases when the party or parties in volved merely had sufficient funds 10 carry their cases that far.

AMERICAN TOURISTS

A French editor wrote piece that was cabled 10 this country and all he had 10 do to gain that distinction was 10 suggest Amen- can tourists be made to pay thelr bills in gold francs. He claimed foreign invaders are living on the country"

CARDINAL o,CoNNELEs TALK

The talk of Cardinal O'Connell in Boston was a frank exposition of his conviction after having had oc- casion to observe the effects of riches upon a multitude of persons. He echoed the Christ doctrine: What If man gain the whole world and lose his own soul?
 The cardinals praise of such Protestants who. though not being demonstrative about church going, still give large sums to great causes, again indicated how closely the work of charity lay to his heart. It was Cardinal O'Connell who at the time Frank A. Munsey left s40,000,ooo to the Metropoli- tan art museum, severely criticised the gift, saying the needs of hospi- tals, charities and good causes generally could have gained much from share in such muniflcence,

GARDNER c. WELD TAKES THE HELM

Gardner c, Weld today took ot- flee as mayor Of Connecticut's fifth city. He will be tho man around whom civic interest naturally will center during the next two years.
 Mayor Weld enters office under bright circumstances; four years of good municipal government under his predecessor in office put civic affairs in better condition than they had been for years. There is no reason to think Mayor Weld will have anything but the most pleasant sailing throughout his term. Politically he has the Com mon Council with him and should find no difficulty In putting through his policies,
 The city extends Its most hearty good will to the new mayor and wishes him a highly successful term,

A Plant Manager!

During the recent Easter holiday season, a florist shop received an order for one large Towering plant to be delivered immediately, The plant was given to a colored mes- senger.
 Arriving at his destination, the messenger vas confronted by q group of young people who not only received the plant but urged him to step inside. From their insistcnce he gathered that there was some surprise awaiting him. He entered cautiously.
 The surprise took the form of an crg-nog, which was presented to him with great ceremony. All looked on, waiting anxiously for some comment from the overjoyed dorkcy. None was forthcoming, however. untiRaftcr the liquid had disappeared with one mighty gulp.
 "Lady." said he, smacking his lips kindly phone for one more plant to be delivered"

THE RETURN OF SPRING

The ', s. weather department at las. hit & popular piece when 1t sent forth the carol that spring which had been lost, strayed or stolen -- would be returned to the eastern part Of the United States hv tomorrow. We will not caVil over the date, perhaps one or two days out Of the way will be no great errhr; but we are confident the forecast of the department will be correct. Spring must come some time, and 1t may be this week as later.
 Human nature Is such that nothing disconcerts 1t so thoroughly as a spring that doesn't show up. We can stand cold weather to the limit fin winter; but when spring ought to be here according to the caien- dar the natural inclination is to eX- nect it to be here in reality as well. Delay sours our tempers and crabs our dispositions. We are hungry for the singing birds, the blooming flowers, the balmS breezes and the warm sunshine - in short, for weather "as is weatn' er." What we have been experience ing has been too much like heavy colds, whooping cough. measles cramps or ear ache. In short. wha VIC have had so far has not beer weather, but a disease of the sea sons.

WORLD COURT HESITATION

Now that the Senate has voted 10 adhere to the World Court un- der certain conditions and reserva- lions, following the lead and sug- gestlons of President Coolidge and the Republican administration be- fore him, nothing further will be done, The remainder lies with the World Court on a take 1t or leave 1t policy,
 That. at least, is the conclusion one arrives at in connection with formal notification by Secretary of State Kellogg that the United States will not participate in the World Court conference in septem- her.
 The conditions and reservations are plain enough, says the secre- tary. No new agreement is neces- sary to give them effect. If there is anything to discuss 1t can be done through direct communica- tons, says Kellogg.
 One cannot help thinking that recent political events have had a little disquieting effect upon the administrators World Court att titude. The vigorous manner in which Senator Borah and the anti Court minority has gone into sena- torial primaries In the effort to de- feat those who voted for Court ad- herence evidently has caused few misgivings in Washington.
 Why there should be any Is be- yond the ken of man. The die is cast and what If some senators are defeated who voted for the Court Some of them would be defeated anyway; and some of those who voted against adherence likewise will court defeat. There Is no req son for the administration to be nervous and go out of its way tc throw difficulties into the path oi accepting our adherence after the Senate voted. The present attitude is doing just that thing. It would have been ordinary courtesy tc send 0 representative to Geneva 1T September for conference re garding our conditions and reserva tions. To refuse is merely openint the way for & withdrawal should the other members of the court no agree upon some points in thu reservations. We have adopted tn take it or leave it attitude - with out much justification -- and WI need not be surprised if the AS na tions already members of tn Court adopt the same principle.
