New York's Heavy Registration.

Registration in New York City is
progressing at rapid pace. On Tues
day. the first day of the series desig-
mated for this purpose, 270,254 names
were enrolled for Greater New York, as
against 190,350 registered on the first
time for single days work at the
registration booths. Yesterday, it would
appear, an equal if not greater num-
Der presented themselves for qualifica-
ton for voting in November. If this
pace continues during the four days
there will be larger number of pos
sible voters than ever before. But it
must be increased in order to approx
mate the whole number eligible for the
ballot 1t is estimated that in 1924 a
million people in Greater New York
failed to avail themselves of the regis
tration right.
1t is striking that leaders of both
parties express qualification at the large
figure scored on the first day of regis
tration. The logical assumption is that
there Is more ground for Democratic
rejoicing than for Republican, inasmuch
as a heavy registration in normally
Democratic area Is usually considered
a forecast of an increase in the Demo-
cratic vote on election day. But in this
campaign there is no way of telling
what heavy registration signifies. For
the issues of this fight are complex.
The reactions of the voters are more
personal than political The questions
involved are of a kind to cause break
ing of party lines. At all events, it is
the normal course for party leaders and
workers to express in public their pleas
ure at a heavy turnout of registrants.
If the pace now set in New York is
continued throughout the country, the
100000 of votes which are hoped for
in the Nationwide poll four weeks
hence may be attained or exceeded.

The Episcopal Convention.

The forty-ninth triennial convention
OF the Protestant Episcopal Church
was formally opened this morning
when President Coolidge addressed the
gathering of delegates in the close OF
the Cathedral Of st. Peter and ST. Paul.
An audience estimated at 10000 heard
the impressive words of the President
and the services Of which his address
was a part. Congregated upon the
slopes of Mount st. Alban, with Au-
tumn's tapestry about them and the
diminished towers of Washington's su-
perb though incomplete cathedral as
background, this great gathering
brought vital testimony to that broad
faith upon which rests the moral and
spiritual welfare of this or any other
Nation
One sentence in the Presidents adj
dress, which dealt with the relationship
Of religion to the practical and tenn
poral welfare of the world today, may
well be pondered upon as the conven-
ton of one of the great denominations
OF this country sets about the work
which lies before it. "If the bonds OF
our religious convictions become loos-
ened," he said, 1.-The guarantees which
have been erected for the protection OF
life and liberty and all the vast body Of
rights that lie between are gone"
To "the Indifferent, the cynic and
the pessimist' these words may seem to
overemphasize the Importance Of the
spiritual in the world as it exists today.
Yet the words spoken by President
Coolidge, striking though they are, are
In effect what every thoughtful and
practical citizen will subscribe to. Re
iiGion, of whatever creed one accepts,
is the ediflce of humanity's moral as
pirations. The moral aspirations Of
humanity are essential II the world Is
to continue the progress which has
been made through the ages toward the
goal of peace, security and happiness
upon this earth.
1.-THE debt" said the President, which
this country owes to the men and
women down through the ages who
have been teaching and are teaching
today the cause of righteousness is be-
yond all estimation" With these
words in their ears and in full con-
sciousness of their responsibilities, may
the delegates of one Of the great
churches of the Nation go forward
with their task of so shaping dogma TO
mans needs today as to supply him
with q religion which, satisfying his
spiritual aspirations, may impregnate
his daily life with the faith which was
his fathers.

Ten Years Ago Today.

Rapid progress continued at all points
along the Anglo American battle front
today from Cambria southwark to St.

marks an advance about 10 miles east
and IS miles southeast of Cambria, in
spite of vain attempts at resistance by
German rearguards. Farther north
several villages southeast of Lens are
occupied. There are signs that
the Germans are preparing for gen.
eral retreat, and airplanes report in
creased confusion on the road east and
northeast of lie Cateau. The British
guns have been moved up and are
pounding the fleeing Germans heavily,
with low-flying planes doing tremendous
damage to them. American air.

aCaresrsn in Diplomacy.

While 1t has been highly desirable
that this Government should develop
more stable and efficient foreign service
than that which has been maintained
In the past, it is by no means in keep
ing with the principles Of American
administration that definitely fixed es-
tablishment should be instituted, re-
gardless of changes in the political con-
troll Of the Government. This is the sub
stance Of the statement made yesterday
by President Coolidge on the subject Of
the career men" of the foreign service,
some Of whom have lately indicated
their purpose to hold to their positions
regardless of the outcome of the presi-
dental election. The President makes
It plain that the Ambassadors and Min
isters who have been appointed by him
from the diplomatic career service will
be subject to removal at the will Of the
Executive, and that any effort on their
part to consider or to constitute them
selves a perpetuated body was not con-
gtitutional, legal or possible.
In the past much adverse criticism
of the United States has been heard
abroad and at home on the score of
the character of the appointments to
the higher diplomatic positions. These
places were for many years regarded
chiefly as "spoils of Office" Many unfit
men were sent to foreign countries to
represent the United States. chosen
merely for their services to the domi-
nant party and often with consideration
for their means to maintain themselves
abroad on the meager salaries and al
lowances granted by Congress. During
recent years, however, a change for the
better has occurred and the average of
diplomatic appointments has been rising
steadily. With the adoption of the
"career" principle, under which men
have been taken into the diplomatic
service in lower positions for training
and development, numerous promotions
30 the higher places have occurred and
unquestionably the Government has
been more capably represented abroad
IN consequence.
The question now is whether these
promotions from the ranks give perma-
nent tenure. The President holds that
they DO not; that those who have gone
up to the ministerial and ambassadorial
places should consider themselves as
representatives of the President and
not as fixtures. Their designations,
therefore, should be rendered to the
newly chosen Executive so that he may
elect whether they are to remain at
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1928-10-10

their posts, or be transferred to other
places, or dropped from the service
Failure thus to tender their resigna-
tons. according to the President, would
not maintain them in their places, in
asmuch as a successor appointment
could still be made by the Executive,
and, If confirmed by the Senate, would
effect their replacement.
The significance of this statement by
the President is that in his view, which
is established upon the fundamental
principles that the Ministers and AM
bassadors are the representatives abroad
of the Executive, the career" system
is limited, as to permanency of tenure,
to the subordinate positions, and that
whenever a man accepts place in the
higher ranks from the lower he runs
the risk of displacement in the event
of change of administration.
InaSmuch as it is entirely within the
possibilities that Mr. Coolidge's sue
cessor in the presidency may be Gov.
Smith, it is clearly proper that this
definition of the status of the career
men" in the higher diplomatic positions
should be now given. For it is alto
gether likely that in such event the new
President will wish to select his own
diplomatic representatives. And the
same may be true of Mr.. Hoover in
case he is elected. In other words, the
President is not to be compelled to ac-
cept the diplomatic appointments of his
even though they may have
been based upon the promotion and
principle.
