The Bryan Memorial.

Decision has been reached by
group of admirers of the late William
Jennings Bryan, who form the execu-
tive body of national organization
for the purpose of erecting a memo.
rial to him, that this expression take
the form of a Bryan Commons" in
this city, with Suitable, useful struc-
lures for the service Of the people"
The project favored includes a central
chimes tower. The prospective cost
Of the memorial is $1.000,000. The
organization will be at once COM
pleted with branches in every
State, forty-three having already been
formed.
Immediately after the death Of Mr..
Bryan several plans for memorial
were launched, each proposing q diff
ferent form of remembrance. One of
these was a university. to be endowed
by gifts Of the people Of the country
irrespective Of political affiliations in
honor Of the man who for nearly
thirty years played conspicuous part
contemplated purely architectural
creations of a monumental type. The
present thought of a Bryan Com
mons" Is in a way an evolution from
all these proposals.
No details are forthcoming as to the
particular purposes to which the
suitable. useful structures" proposed
by the memorial association will be
devoted. There is something in the
description that has Just been given
forth which suggests a peoples in
stitute." That the plan contenplates
architectural features of a notable
character is indicated by the sugges.
ton Of a central chimes tower. This
may prove to be the eventual accom-
plishment Of a long-cherished plan for
a national carlton in this city.
One fact is notable in this connec-
ton. The prospective cost Is placed
at one million dollars, which is
small sum. in these days Of large fig
ures. for a national memorial project.
That amount Of money should be
easily raised. With organizations in
all Of the States working effectively
popular subscriptions to that amount
should soon be in hand. 1t would
seem, therefore. that Mr.. Bryan's
friends and admirers who are now at
work on this suggested plan will in
short order be in a position to an
nounce actual accomplishment and to
begin the work itself. which has been
appropriately located at the Capital.

Is a girl or woman who has seen the
light; who realizes that one can be
dressed with exceeding simplicity and
yet be exceedingly we'll dressed; who
senses the fact that feminine ankles
and calves--this is 1925 and no issue
can be dodged-look better in plain
black silk or sensible fine wool than
in the scores Of different Easter egg
shades now or the market.
The Star fathers no campaign for
the reform in dress of women Of the
workaday world. Any such formal
campaign would make little progress,
even if concerted action were taken
by the business men Of the COM
munity-rather a remote possibility.
Women are inclined, when all is said
and done, to wear what they want
to wear. If, however, 1t occurred to
them that 1t might be well to want

Uncle Sam and His Parks.

The real issue in the discussion OF
The appropriation to complete the
parkway connection between Poto-
mac and Rock Creek Parks is not
whether the National Government
shall participate in definite proportion
or in arbitrary lump-sum payment
toward this national-local improve
ment, but whether 1t shall contribute
at all.

No legislator can justify voting for
this bill because he is inclined to
favor the lump-sum payment plan of
national contribution in preference to
the definite proportion plan. A vote
for this bill is not merely the indica-
ton of a preference concerning the
form of national contribution for park
development. but refusal to con-
tribute any amount whatever in any
form.

Vitanin Habit.
-om the Canton Daily News.

From the Canton Daily News.
Wonder has often been expressed If
the people in late years were not be-
ing led to consideration of calories and
vitamins and things like those, to the
point where they were likely to forget
the enjoyment if not the value of real
food. Such eventuality is not likely,
but there Is no doubt that food direc
ton in many instances has become a
fad rather than utility.
There comes now NJ. NJ. Woodward,
State drug analyst of Michigan, ar
mored and Spurred as was Don QuiX-
ote to upset the tradition of knight
hood in an effort to put some COM
mon sense In the thought of diet, and
who starts by assailing what he terms
the fallacy of the vitamin fad" Writ
ing on this subject in his annual re-
port, he seeks to lower the status of
the vitamin as 1t has been established
in the popular mind, and makes the
assertion that there is not at present
one atom Of proof to show that vita
Minis are one whit more necessary to
life than salt, lime, iodine or iron, and
that in the light of sober thought
they are readily reduced to the COM
monplace. For example, he cites wa
ter as essential to life, but 1t has
tlSNSl Detll lOOheu upO1i dts ii CuIe-dl
nor is salt a cure-all, although life
cannot exist without 1t, and people
and animals have been known to
travel for miles to get it.
Since none of the necessities men
toned by Mr.. Woodward will cure
everything, he seeks to know what
basis. If any, there is to expect more
of vitamins merely because we do not
know their composition. If this can
not be established. of course, then
vitaminS step back from the
front rank of corrective medicine, to
be employed when need is indicated
and not to be pushed forward as the
panacea for all the ills of mankind.
That vitamins are necessary to life
has been found by experiments with
animals deprived Of them. But hui
man beings do not need to take them
as they would other curative drugs.
The average bill of fare contains all
the vitamins anybody needs.

No Coal Agreement in Sight.

Rejection by the anthracite mine
workers Of a proposal which the
operators have declared to be their
utmost concession" brings the mine
strike conference at New York to the
point Of collapse. The operators plan
was five-year agreement with the
provision that in the event of a dead
lock in direct negotiations Charles E.
Hughes or some person Of similar
standing should name three arbi-
traitors. The miners, on Sunday, ex-
pressed willingness for Mr.. Hughes to
name arbitrators, but only to decide
whether wages could be advanced.
President Lewis of the union charac-
terized the action of the operators in
Offering their plan as desperate eff
fort" to break up the conference, and
declared that the operators frankly de-
sire arbitration as an instrument to
effect wage reduction.
1t would seem from these circum-
stances that there is little hope for
agreement at this present conference,
which may break up at once. The net
result of the negotiations that have
been in progress for two weeks is
that there has been public demon
stration Of willingness by the oper-
ators to go to arbitration, and unwill-
ingness on the part of the miners to
submit the wage hearing to an impair
tial hearing. There have been evil
dences that the miners, despite a
seeming solidarity, are FESTIVE under
a leadership which is keeping them
out Of employment and wage-earning
Signs are not lacking that this feeling
will be sharply manifested upon an
nouncement that the New York meet
ing has failed to effect an agreement
The strike has now lasted five and
half months. The miners have lost in
wages far more than they could gain
by any conceivable change of scale in
two years of steady work. They are
in debt for supplies, their savings have
been exhausted and they are now suf-
fering from the lack of necessities for
their families. There is small hope of
concerted labor movement for their
benefit. practically no chance of a
sympathetic strike, particularly In the
soft coal fields, which are now, owing
to the use of bituminous as a sub
stitute for anthracite, more prosper
GUS than for a long period. 1t would
seem that Lewis and his associates
Of the union leadership are cutting
things very fine and risking a revo-
luton.

will be poor political Investment. 1t
Is in the nature of Things desirable
from the Democratic point Of view
that there should be discussion" and
some argument on the subject of
these surtaxes and the proposed
greater reduction of the tax. There is
doubtless campaign material in such
a debate. But it is to be questioned
seriously whether there Is any real
advantage to the Democratic party In
a prolongatioi of the debate and post
ponement of the enactment
The people of this country are not
greatly concerned over methods of tax
reduction. With a few exceptions they
are not concerned as to the ratio of
benefits to be derived by particular
groups and classes of taxpayers. To
the great majority of them these tax
reduction arguments are cryptic, be-
You'd understanding. The average

self much. If any, over what others
getting in the way of remissions, so
long as his own tax is appreciably re-
duced.
The Democratic leaders will make
serious mistake if they permit and
direct protracted debate on these
surtaX rates, especially if it should
prolong a consideration of the bill be-
yond the 18th of March, the last pay
ment date for the first quarter of the
year. The reaction in the public mind
will be unfavorable. What the people
want today is prompt tax reduction,
effective on the day when they make
their initial payment. Hardness in
effecting this result will be far more
harmful to the political prospects of
the party responsible for the delay
than helpful in the campaign to come
by showing of Democratic willing
ness-when power does not accom-
pany consideration-to lay the heavier
burden Of taxation upon the persons
OF larger income.

Feminine Wear.

There seems to be, without any real
concerted campaign, a movement afoot
looking toward more appropriate dress
for business women during business
hours. Evidences thereof occur from
time to time in communications to the
press, In suggestions by employers
and in action taken by organizations
OF various sorts. 1t is a good move
ment-"good" not in the sense used
by reformers, but good as regards
looks, comfort and propriety.
One thing is certain: that II a poll
OF men fellow workers were taken
the vote would be overwhelmingly
against peach blossom hosiery, sleeve
less gowns, dresses Of satin and silk,
often of pale shades and more suited
Office. These things seem to be now
almost universal. Other feminine
workers go further and go to business
IN costumes wherein they might go
direct from office to evening party.
Even embroidered Spanish shawls
have been noted in the marts Of trade
Women do not dress entirely for
men. Working even in strictly femi-
nine environment. they would still
naturally strive to appear at their
best. But they cannot be unconscious
of the appearance they make before
their male colleagues, and those same
males, judging from many private
masculine conversations. are more
and substantial form of feminine ap-
parel.
