The average American schoolboy
probably thinks Of slavery as thing
that disappeared when Lincoln signed
the proclamation Of emancipation.
But the recent survey made by the
slavery commission Of the League OF
Nations uncovered the fact that there
are still about 5000 900 human beings
in bondage here and there throughout
the world.
There are still 20 countries in which
slavery exists.
There is no accurate slave census
available, but the most dependable es-
innate puts the number of slaves IN
these 90 countries at 100000.
Abyssinia has, in all probability
1000, 900 slaves.
China probably has 100000 slaves
There has been a large number OF
slaves freed since the World War.
Two hundred thousand slaves have
been freed in the former German area
Of Tanganyika, in Africa.
Fifty-three thousand slaves have
been freed in the Nepal, which Is be-
tween Tibet and British India.
The tide Of public opinion is setting
strong against slavery, and it is only
a question of time until slavery will
be wiped from the face of the earth
that is, the sort Of slavery that is rep
resented by the actual ownership of
one human being by another.

Infantile PARALYSIS.

Public Health Service reports are re-
assuring on the score of the danger of
a general epidemic of infantile paraly-
sis. While the disease is undoubtedly
more prevalent this year than last,
fortytwo States having reported 248
cases for the week ending August 13,
as against SO last year, there is no
approach to the morbidity record of
1916, when the mysterious ailment pre-.
vailed in many parts of the country
and took a heavy toll of lives.
According to the service records, the
disease appeared this year first to no.
ticeable extent in California, and then
developed in Ohio and West Virginia.
1nfantile paralysis seems to spread
from a point of infection. 1t is now
prevalent, as already indicated, in
forty-two States. Whether all these
cases came from the California focus
is not known.
A fact to be borne in mind in this
connection is that the Summer is the
season Of motor touring on a large
scale. Entire families travel by per-
sonal conveyance over wide areas.
Living conditions are not always good
in the course of these journeys. Tour
lists assemble in camps in the larger
cities while in transit. Although sani
tary inspections are maintained at
these points by local health author
tiles. there is always danger Of the
spread of disease by this means.
It may not be possible to demon
strate the connection between motor
touring and the spread of infantile
paralysis, yet it is significant that the
disease appears mainly during the sea-
son of heavy road travel. If there is
such connection, it would seem to be
desirable to strengthen the safeguards
against the transmission of disease
from one community to another at
time when hundreds of thousands of
people are on the move for Summer
outings.

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

librarian of the League, pending the
definite filling of the place, is Miss
Alice G. Bartlett of Boston, who was
Miss Wilson's assistant. Together they
started the League library in 1919.
Thousands of American A. E. F.
veterans now en- route to Paris for
the Legion convention, or already
there, possess copies of one Of the
most attractive books that ever left
the press. 1t is entitled "A Guide to
the American Battlefields in Europe"
and is the work of the Government
Printing Office at Washington. The
book was prepared by the American
Battle Monuments Commission, of
which Gen. Pershing is the chairman,
and is detailed, accurate description
Of the area in which Doughboy and
Marine made history nine years ago.
The work, which runs to nearly 800
pages, is richly Illustrated with pic
lures from the American battle zones.
Many of them were supplied by the
German government, being scenes be-
hind the German lines before the
Americans crossed them. A series of
graphic regional maps accompanies
the book. Gen. Pershing, in thanking
turning out so creditable a volume,
commented on the patriotic zeal of
Public Printer Carter's staff in get
ting it ready for the Second A. e. F."
in about a quarter of the time ordi
narily required for book of its sort.

John Sharp Williams, Democratic

the Missourian could never achieve
his ambition to be President, because
the friends Of Woodrow Wilson would

State a legion of Democrats who were

Everett Sanders when land if his
services as assistant to the President

required. He is being mentioned in
no fewer than three different connec-

has been launched, they're talking of
Sanders for governor of the State
and in still other quaters there's SEN
timent that he is the ideal Republican
candidate for the United States sena-
torship which the Hoosiers will be
filling in 1928, when Senator Robin
son, Republican. is up for reelection.
Sanders loomed at one time in
the Cleveland national convention
OF 1924 as Mr.. Coolidge's prospective
running mate. The young Indianian
says he's too busy attending to his
present job at the White House to

FIVE MILLION SLAVES IN 1927
GLENN FRANK,
Magazine

mine read in a club corner the news
story that carried the facts Of the
slavery commissions survey to which
l have just referred.
He was plainly moved by the facts.
He belongs to that vast group Of hui
manitarians who are moved by such
dramatic facts, and. like his fellow
humantarians, he is always ready to
organize new movement" to eradi-
cate the evil facts.
We could not afford to lose the
huma Unitarian whose spirit responds
quickly to an obvious cry Of need.
whether it be the sweeping patflos OF
Mississippi flood sufferers or the bit
ter enslavement OF adult blacks In
Africa or the bondage of children in
China.
But we need another sort Of humani-
tartan whose spirit will respond to the
call of less obvious slaveries as we'll.
America has its slaveries as well as
Africa.
We have slaves to illiteracy.
We have slaves to bad heredity.
We have slaves to bad environment.
We have slaves to soul-killing rou.
tine.
We have slaves to preventable acci.
dents in industry.
We have slaves to preventable dis
ease.
These cry aloud for emancipation no
less than the slaves in Africa.

larger number Of offenders would be
punished in view of the disposition of
juries to stretch the benefit Of the
doubt" principle to cover a multitude
of sins. But after all the penalties
should be scaled according to the seri-
BUSINESS of the offenses and not as a
measure of expediency.
If the Police Court were relieved Of
traffic trial duty much of the conges-
ton would be removed. A traffic court
is desirable to deal with the petty
cases of ule-breaking that should
be disposed of promptly and effective
ly, with a minimum of inconvenience
to both prosecution and defense. That
measure alone would ease the situa-
tion at the Police Court materially.
Much of the present congestion is
due to the failure of appropriations
during the close of the past fiscal
year. There were no funds to pay
juror fees for several weeks, and
cases piled up in consequence. But
even with the arrears disposed of the
original condition remains of inces
SAINT demands for jury trials in cases
that should be handled by the court
alone and the lack of enough judges
and juries to handle them. If the
penalties are too severe for justice
they should be lessened, but not to
the point of putting premium on
crime in the District by defining it, in
terms of punishment, as a misde-
meanor.

Park Legislation.

Specific legislation to carry into eff.
feet the recommendations of the Ma
tional Capital Park and Planning Com.
mission is being prepared by the ex-
ecutive director of the commission,
Lieut.. Col. Grant, and it is probable
that bills will be introduced at the
coming session of Congress embracing
these projects. In the drafting of
from representatives of the local COM
munity concerned in the matter Of
the development OF the Capital, and
the hope is felt that the program Of
enactments laid before Congress will
be of a nature to satisfy all. and that
there will be no opposition, so that
before the adjournment definite and
helpful beginning will have been ef-
fected on the great project of the
systematic advancement of a park
program.
The most important of these meas
ures is one that proposes the advance
ment of ten million dollars from the
Federal Treasury for the immediate
purchase of park lands, to prevent ex-
cessive costs incident to the general
increase in values. This would be in
the form of loan to be repaid at a
moderate rate of interest in Install
ments of s560,000 a year. 1t is obvious
that unless some large amount Is thus
made available for the taking Of lands
at their present prices the ultimate
cost will be materially greater. The
District funds cannot suffice for such
wholesale purchases. A bond issue Is
not favored, and will probably not be
by Congress. The Treasury
is in position to loan the money with
installment reimbursement. Appro-
priations for the development of tracts
thus acquired should be made annual
ly as funds are available. But it Is
always to be borne in mind in this
connection that the principle of ma
tional participation in this great prof.
ect of Capital park development has
been written into the substantive law,
and these initial costs should not be
rated as strictly part Of the munich
pal expense. In the draft of this pro-
posed legislation heed should be given
to the equity of the national sharing
of the expense.

Police Court Congestion.

In the first annual report of the
ted to the Commissioners, conditions
at the Police Court due to congestion
are discussed in terms which will chal-
lenge consideration and perhaps lead
to specific recommendations by the
Commissioners. The congestion at
the court due to the frequent demand
for jury trials and the lack Of ma
chinery to try the numerous cases in
this class is a matter of grave con-
Germ. says the corporation counsel,
who urges that the facilities for try
ing such cases be increased, and that
the penalties for offenses be made less
drastic in order to lessen the number
of applications for juries. This would
seem to be a dual remedy when one
should suffice. If the present scale Of
penalties for violations Of the law is
too high for the purposes of justice 1t
should be revised, not merely because
of the lack Of facilities for trial, but
on the score of disproportionate pun
ishment If the penalties are just and
iudicious the cure for the congestion
in the court lies not in their reduction,
but in the increase of the number of
judges.
In other words, the penalty scale
should be considered on its merits
without reference to the result of jury
trial demands. Are the punishments
now prescribed too severe? Should
they be modified "to make the punish.
ment fit the crime?
Police Court congestion is serious
blockade of justice. The local situa
ton has become a scandal. Cases are
protracted for many weeks, even for
months. 1t is well known fact that
offenders are enabled by demanding
jury trials and using technical ex
pedients for delay to postpone adjudi
cation until witnesses are unavailable
and the cases fail to reach conclu
sion. There is but one assured rem
edy, and that lies in the provision o.
such facilities for trial that there Il
no excuse for delay.
It may be that a curtailment Of thu
Nst of offenses warranting jury tiall
would make for surer Justice in that

Favor American Ships!

AIli0ICdD SoOuS III [AIllCl lSdH pol-
toms is a good slogan for the Ameri-
can people and the American merchant
marine. President Coolidge, with the
strong commonsense which has char
acterzed many of his utterances, has
recommended to American shippers
and to American railroads that they
favor American flag ships for the
transportation of American goods to
foreign countries. If American ship
pers and American railroads would
bear this advice in mind seriously
and adhere to it, the merchant marine
problem, with which this country has
been struggling since the war, might
be on the way TO solution, even
though no legislation providing Gov
ernment aid were passed by Con-
gress.
President Coolidge said that the in
difference of American. shippers and
railroads had been called to his at
tention by officials of the Shipping
Board. One of the strongest assets
of the British merchant marine is the
backing which is given it by British
merchants and producers and by Eng
lish transportation companies. So far
as possible they see that British COM
merce moves in British ships. If
similar spirit, a similar desire for
American flag ships to move Ameri-
can commerce could be developed in
this country it would be a great vic.
tory for the United States merchant
marine. Congress recognized the
need of American patronage of Amer
lean merchant vessels when it put
into the merchant marine law a re-
quirement that Government officials
going abroad on Government business,
so far as practicable, use American
dag vessels.
Americans generally have been edu-
Gated, slowly but surely, to the need
Of merchant marine, both for the
sake of American foreign commerce,
which now rivals the greatest in the
world. and for national defense in
time of emergency. The Government
has remained firmly back of the mer-
chant marine, through operation and
control of the Government-owned
feet, built and acquired during the
war. 1t is up to the American ship.
pers, themselves, as the President
has so wisely pointed out, to give the
necessary driving force which will
keep the American flag constantly on
the seven seas.
The merchant marine problem Is to
come before the new Congress, as it
has before it's predecessors. The main
problem today is one Of replacement
of ships as they become obsolete.
strong sentiment is growing up in
both House and Senate for some meas
ure which shall insure a continuance
Of the American overseas merchant
feet. There is no doubt, however,
that American shippers can aid great
ly by their cooperation to bring about
a permanent merchant marine, Gov
ernment owned or privately-owned, as
The case may be.
