II an example set by New York Uni
versity is to be followed generally IN
the future, traditional military titles
will be put into the discard and aca.
denaic designations Of rank win sue

cellor Brown of that institution of

John j. Pershing. This will be the
frst time in the history of that uni

granted.
After the eleventh of April, therefore

world as General Pershing viii, If his
latest title is followed, have to be called
Doctor" Pershing. It viii take some
considerable explaining to identify him
by this new designation. 1t will, If the

race which has held Palestine for q
thousand years is the issue which Great
Britain has to face. 1t must be met, In
light of the Balfour declaration of 1917.
Two years later, after the peace of
Versailles, Britain was given the League
of Nations mandate over Palestine.
Declaration and mandate, the Shaw
commission holds, are in palpable con-
flict and conjure up inherent Difficult
ties" The declaration sets Palestine
aside as a Jewish national home. The
mandate specifies that the civil and
religious rights of non-JewiSh commu-
mites should not be invaded. The COM
mission of inquiry does not call the
mandate into question, but it urges the
British government to state with
unequivocal clearness" how it interprets
its double responsibility.
I'm the interests alike Of all sections
Of the people of Palestine and of the
local administration" the commission
suggests, 1--WE would urge that his
majesty's government define the mean
ing it attaches to the Balfour declara-
ton as whole, and it should state with
equal clarity the course of the policy
1t intends to pursue in that country
in the future. Whatever form that
statement may take, its value would be
greatly enhanced If, in it, the govern
ment were to define more clearly and
in positive terms the meaning it at
taches to passages in the mandate
which provide for the safeguarding of
the rights Of .non-Jewish communities. +"
Moslem hatred ran amuck seven
months ago, the Shaw commission
bluntly concludes, owing to Arab mis-
givings over wholesale Jewish immigra-
ton and land purchase. Out of these
misgivings springs the fear that the
Arabs some day may become landless
paupers under Jewish political domina-
ton. That is the Palestinian problem
in nutshell. 1t is an uncommonly
grave one, as problems always are which
are aggravated by racial and religious
acrimony. It will tax the ingenuity of
British craftsmanship. Unless and until
it is settled, the seeds of enduring
trouble in Palestine will not be uprooted.

doctors Of laws and doctors Of philoso-
ply, though the latter rarely. Doctors
Of military science are something diff
ferent. There is a connotation about
the title Of doctor" that does not al
together harmonic with military
science. If the world were In state
of profound and lasting peace and
there were no wars or threats of war
military science might be academic
enough to Justify the bestowal of a
title indicating scholarly mastery Of
an abstract theorem.
It is not to be suggested that there
Is no such thing as military science"
War has been reduced to scientific
basis In that 1t employs virtually all
the sciences. The great conflict OF
lsI4-ls involved the services Of chem
lists, physicists, nathematicians, geolo-
gists, meteorologists, naturalists, in fact
all the whole range Of the physical
sciences. And the commander-in-c hief
Of an army must utilize all the sciences
as well as that specifically Of combat.
Even so, the identification Of warfare
with the learned sciences by comforting
doctorates causes somewhat Of a jolt
to the sense Of fitness. The purpose OF
the New York University is, Of course.
to grant a high honor upon Gen.
Pershing, but it may be doubted whether
he will wear his doctors title as proud
ly as that which specifically denotes his
great accomplishment.

Study of Jones Law Inspired
By understands Testimony

that the country is not getting "a meas
ure of enforcement today. Whether
it will when and If the sWickersham
proposals are put into effect remains to
be SEEN" The New York Evening Post
finds "a new point" in the chairman's
statement of belief that enforcement
is now worse in former dry States than
it was before the coming Of Federal
prohibition, on the general belief that
instead of relying upon their own efforts
the States are inclined to lie back and
let the central Government do the work
for them"
Comments on the effect Of the Wick
erSham testimony come from various
newspapers. The Worcester Evening
Gazette holds that "the commissions
recommendation are not likely to solve
the prohibition problem, but they do
promise to impart an element of sanity
and moderation to enforcement efforts"
The Charleston Evening Post views the
chairman's judgment as "a thorough
condemnation of the principle of pro-
hibition," and assumes that ain short,
he holds that the only effective re-
Striction upon the evils of liquor drink
ing is the cultivation of temperance"
AS to the discretion of the Judge un-
der the Jones law, the Baltimore Sun
feels that "a discretion so alien hereto
lore 10 American Jurisprudence na0
aroused protest so widespread that IL
is not surprising to see elimination Of
it urged" The Birmingham News COM
ments: IF the penalty is to be made
to fit the crime rather than to satisfy
some fanatical spirit for vengeance, Mr..
Understands suggestion, 1t would seem,
should be adopted. Its adoption would,
we think, strengthen rather than
weaken the cause of temperance as
well as that of law enforcement"
HE has no faith" according to the
Asheville Times. Gin extreme punish
ment for simple misdemeanors. That
is sound doctrine from the head of the
law commission, but not exactly in tune
with the American mood of the moment.
Mr.. Wickersham Is able, sincere and
open-minded. His statements, more
over, serve well to balance the fanatic
cism which marks so many of the pro-
ponents in the camps of the vets and
the dryS."

The Stars Citation of the
Failures of Justice Praised

To the Editor Of The Star:
Referring to an editorial in The
Evening Star Of March 90, calling at
tention to the criminal records of
Giuseppe Piraino and Joseph Florino
and to others Of like character, the un-
designed members Of the planning
committee, National Sojourners, WASH
ington Chapter, desire to express our
appreciation Of these editorials.
You very justly say that these recor is
clearly illustrate the inefficiency of law
enforcement In the United States out
side of any issue of prohibition, and it
Is our hope that you will continue to
bring to the attention of the public
other similar instances of fragrant mis-
carriage Of justice, all too common in
our country, to the end that the public
may come to realize the serious danger
to our country of the failure Of justice
in cases Of this kind.

An Airport Site on the
Eastern Branch Urged

To the Editor Of The Star:
II the committees of the House and
Senate for the District of Columbia
will go out East Capitol street to
Twenty-first street and cast their eyes
up and down the valley of the Eastern
Branch of the Potomac especially, for
present purposes, the high filled ground
between the United States Jail and the
Benning road, they will see the best
place to locate the new airport fort
Washington, with scores Of paved
streets leading out to it and only $500
feet from the front of the Union Sta
ton, out Massachusetts, avenue to
Eighth street northeast and on out B
street northeast to Twenty-first street,
is only $500 feet-less than that-from
the east steps of the United States Cap
itol. When they look over this ground
and consider all of its advantages of
nearness to the Post once, Union Sta
ton, Capitol. etc., with scores Of paved
streets leading to 1t, / am sure they
will forget all about other sites, eSpe-
cially as the title to this and the 1000
acres on up the valley which will be
added to 1t for future expansion is in
the United States Government. They
will, feel sure, appropriate $5O0,000
for immediate use in clearing, grading
ton of Zeppelin tower at the center
of East Capitol street, WITH light
above the tower which can be seen for a
circuit of 200 miles. Then Washington
will have an aviation field the envy of
all other cities. Sewer, city water, tele-
phone and electric lines are already
established also car and bus lines. The
necessary money to finish the dredging
out of the channel to the District Of
Columbia line, now in progress, should
be made available at once, so that Indy
can establish a glider school on one of
the high points above Benning. There
are so many more advantages that
could be added to these suggestions that
you could not publish them in one
issue of The Star.
The cost of grading parking, ETC.,
need not be taken into the account, as
that is already provided for in the
parking plans for the Eastern Branch.
When this is done Washington will have
something more real to show for the ex-
penditure of the taxpayers money than
increased tax bills. H. M. PROCTOR.

Newcomer to Washington
Compliments The Star

To the Editor Of The Star:
After being an enthusiastic resident
of washington for three weeks in this
beautiful Springtime, think of our own
environment, Chicago, in comparison,
and The Star daily reading compared
with the Chicago newspapers. We want
to congratulate you upon your every
day philosophy and optimism which
even your view columns and accounts
Of crime illustrate. It seems to me
there Is cause for serious thought and
question today as we read many pa
pers' accounts of murder, burglary,
hold-ups and general banditry that 60
so into the details of it all, leaving so
little for the imagination of the young
man who hasn't character background
today and Is on the dollar chase, see
ing pleasant, easy money and getting
away with it in such lines, rather than
in legitimate commercial activity. We
like the old-time editorial slogan:
Here shall the press
The peoples right maintain,
Unawed- by influence,
Unbribed by gain"
Who is the author? Where did use
to see 1t? Should not the press today
feel, act, live an eloquent trusteeship
Of inherent virtue? Not put a halo,
almost, on law violation. IT hope you
sense me-"
I compliment washington on The

Bonus Proposed to Ease
The Economic Burden

To the Editor Of The Star:
Hon. William P. Connery, jr., of Lynn,
Mass, is boosting the immediate pay
ment of the soldiers adjusted service
certificate. It has come to my atten-
ton that in and about Boston veterans
are sending individual letters, as well
as sheets Of signatures, to their respec-
tive Senators and Representatives, indi-
eating their approval Of this bill for
various reasons.
It seems to me that this is a most
opportune time for the immediate pas
sage OF this bill. Business conditions
of today are looked upon by the nom
veteran as well as the veteran as not
quite so good. Unemployment is preva-
lent. Cities and towns are carrying the
burden through their welfare depart
ments and organizations, which, Of
course, is a most unwelcomed condition,
particularly when we read In our annual
reports at the end of the year of the
thousands Of dollars spent through
these departments and organizations
for most worthy cause-that of ward
ing OF poverty.
Therefore, If more money were put
into circulation throughout the country
the demand for goods would improve.
Hence more business, better conditions
in general, with harmony.

Radio Announcers Give
Schubert Good Name
From the Seattle Times.

From the Seattle Times.
Radio announcers are revising the
biography of Franz Schubert. In these
days when so many who love music
have or pretend to have strong dis
taste for tntoxicants and for all who
drink them, great deal Of harm doubt
less Is being done the reputation of one
siStihle inference Is nowadays on the air
that Schubert spent virtually all his
lifetime in a taphouSe.
One Of Schubert'S real and friendly
biographers seems originally responsible
for this, though surely without inten-
ton. There 10 fairly authenticated
story that the composer, while once
seated in q Vienna cafe, was seized with
the creative impulse and jotted down
the music for one Of Shakespeare's
songs on the back of q menu card. From
that slender though not improbable tale
We are now come to times when Moth
broadcast without crediting 1t to the
more or less questionable cafe inspira-
ton. The tale Is retold with every
presentation of q Schubert composition,
whether symphonic or Skittish.
We may pass by, as OF minor i'm.
portance, the doubt that menu cards
were scattered about the cafes fire.

Schubert's day. The printed unenC, as
we know it, is comparatively modern

1T want thimble." we said, plung-
ing in boldly.
Every woman in the. store turned
around
Every last girl alive there began to
smile.
Our declaration had been made out
Of clear sky. We hated to do 1t, but
there was no other course. Judging
from the clutches those ladies had or
the goods, they would have been there
yet, with us cooling our heels for lit
tie thinble.
What size?" asked clerk, calmly, q.
If there could be no more reasonable
purchase.
We thought At to make explanation.
"Our thimble disappeared" we said
It was a good start, but not clear
enough.
"The thimble at our house disap-
peared," we hastened to declare. 1--WE
think the cat swallowed it."
y \
Every lady in the shop by this time
was a broad smile.
We got quite a glow Of satisfaction
to have brought so much happiness out
Of nothing to so many ladies.
Here their whole day was cheered ur
by the vision Of a cat swallowing q
thimble.
"At least" we added, 'the thimble
is gone, and there is q possibility that
the cat might have gotten it,"
What size did you Say?"
All, relentless lady!
DO they come in sizes?"
All the customers looked at us pity
ingly. Did they come in sizes? Why
Of course they came In sizesl Who
ever heard of such ignorance?
y X X "
HAS she large fingers or small ones?'
"Why-er-just regular fingers"
"You want either 8 or 9. I guess,
said the clerk, hopelessly, yet with firm
decision.
Eight will do" we declared with
sudden dignity. Eyes, I think size 4
will be just right"
Here is one for S cents and here is
one for TO-" said the clerk.
"Ten," we decided, loftily. Had she
said dollar, we would have handed II
that one could purchase gold tl1imbIes
for almost any price, but unless they
had one set with diamonds we would
stick to aluminium.
X y \ \
After we had made our exit, followed
by the broad smiles of the beautiful
ladies buying dress goodS-smiles which
we liked to think had some approval in
them-we got to wondering about
thimbles in general.
In the old days, now definitely labeled
Middle English, the word was spelled
with sterling honesty, "thimbil." II
came from the Anglo-Saxon for thumb
We knew that there are thimble-
weeds cousins of the popular garden
Rudbeckias), and thimbleberries, but II
wasn't until we looked the matter up
in the dictionary that we discovered
that the old shell game" so popular
at country fairs Is called thimblerig.
Usually the time-honored shell
game" Is played with three walnut
shells and q pea, but evidently in the
beginning they used either thimbles OF
small cups shaped like them.
Well, who would have thought that
there is any relation between a gam
bling game and the small but essential
implement used by millions Of women
in sewing?
Such is one Of the countless oddities
of our mother tongue. (And, by the
way, the cat hadn't swallowed the
thimble. It was found the next day
beneath sofa cushion)
