SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Common Cause.
When hunger for relief applies
Among my neighbors near

For what to them seems queer.
For when I struggle to portray
My own precarious plight
They simply smile and turn away
And say ut serves you right"
I cannot find the friendly grip
BY Common Cause bespoke.
say in bold companionship
Il too am going broke!"
My greatest grief would be the care
Which I'm compelled to slight
Mid envious whispers here and there
That say "it serves you right!'
Among us all there is q call
For energy renewed.
The generosity Is small
That waits for gratitude.
I'll keep on rowing as before
Up stream both day and night,
But, If chance to break an oar
Don't say ut serves you right!'

Boys Clubs.

Friends Of the boys Of Washington
have applied TO the Public Works Ad-
miniStration for funds to build two
boys club centers on appropriate sites
within the city's boundaries. They ap-
peared before the District Commits
sioners Tuesday, and the Commission
ers have agreed to forward their appeal
to Public Works Administrator Ickes.
Naturally, such move enlists the
sympathy of hundreds of citizens. 1t is
a matter of history that wherever boys
have had the use of facilities of the kind
intended in the present proposal the
delinquency rate has declined. The
more boys clubs the less need for re-
formatories and prisons. No one sup
poses that the boys Of the Nations
Capital are any more apt to get into
mischief than their contemporaries in
other communities, but neither does any
one believe that they are utterly i'm
mune TO the influences which through
out the country have stimulated crime
waves, racketeering and gang-rule. By
the same logic, 1t follows that If boys
clubs are constructively effective In New
York, Chicago and elsewhere they should
be helpful in washington.
The investment called for would ap.
proximate 1857. 900. a relatively small
sum. Two buildings would be erected

nature study and other leisure hour en-
ployments. These would be available to
boys of the entire city at nominal
membership fee. They would be super
vised by men trained to the task.
The community spends money in
other endeavors to prevent crime and
to provide education. and experience
has demonstrated that while the prob
lem may be approached from many diff
ferent angles, the boys club approach
is one Of the best. 1t is to be hoped
that the petition filed Tuesday may be
granted.

The Ware Defeat.

William S. Ware, former member of
the House Of Representatives, for many
years the Republican boss Of Philadel-
phia, has fallen on evil days. The
Democrats In Philadelphia, under the
leadership of John B. Kelly, with the
aid and assistance Of the anti-Vare Re-
publicans, organized into the Town
Meeting Group, gave Mr.. Ware and hts
machine the worst licking it has had in
many day. 1t is a strange situation
in this strongly Republican city, a situ-
alton which places Kelly, comparatively
a newcomer to politics and Demo-
crat, in dominating political position.
The real significance of the election lies
not, however, in the present appearance
Of Democratic victory. 1t lies in the
defeat Of Ware and the opportunity the
Republicans now have to get rid of this
veteran boss.
Mr.. Ware, who succeeded to the
Republican leadership in Philadelphia
when brother died who had been
leader before him, was denied a seat
in the United States Senate following
the election of 1926. Investigation OF
the primary election and the general
election campaigns showed a vast sum
of money had been expended for the
three candidates in the Republican
senatorial primary, former Senator
George Wharton Pepper, william s..
Ware and Gov. Clifford Pinchot. While
the amount expended for Pinchot was
far less than for his two opponents,
nevertheless 1t ran into the hundreds
Of thousands Of dollars. The Pennsyl-
vania political system. it was explained
on all sides. requires liberal expend-
iture Of money. Nevertheless, the Sen
ate, when the case of Mr.. Ware came
before it, compelled Mr. Ware to stand
aside, and finally rejected him.
1t might have been supposed that the
refusal Of the Senate to accept Mr.
Ware on the ground that his election
was polluted would have been a body
hcy to tas veteran boss ~ o matter
Evening star., 1933-11-10

Of fact, 1t scarcely seemed to Jar him
IN his seat as controlling factor In
Republican politics In the City of
Brotherly Love. He was too well in
trenched. There were signs of revolu-
tion, 1t is true, but there seemed to be
no new leader Of sufficient strength to
wrest control from the hands of Mr..
Ware.
The fusion movement in Philadel-
phia, just as the fusion movement in
New York was too strong for John F.
Curry and Tammany Hall, this year
proved too strong for Boss Ware. As
in New York, where the voters were not
so much enamored Of the fusion candi-
date, Maj. La Guardia, as they were
opposed to the Tammany machine and
all its works, so In Philadelphia the
voters were really voting against Ware
rather than for any of the successful
candidates. All of which goes to prove
that political tides run strongest when
the people are voting against some
thing or some one, rather than for"
candidates.
1t remains to be seen whether the
Republicans of Philadelphia will finally
deposit Mr.. Ware Ii the political trash
heap. The Ware leadership has been a
tradition for years. If MIR. Ware is
to be ousted, new leader must arise
Perhaps this will come about, lust as
the Democrats ditched John ODon-
nell, who for years had been the Demo-
cratic leader in Philadelphia, and sub
stituted Kelly this year. O'Donnen, it
was well understood, merely served as
a Democratic ally of Ware in the city.
The Republicans have still to find
their Kelly.
Wares defeat may bring Gov. Pinchot
again into the field of national politics,
with aspirations for seat in the
United States Senate to top of his
career. If the Governor decides to get
into the race he must run against Sem
ator David A. Reed. Reed halls from
Pittsburgh, where the Mellon organiza-
ton was defeated on Tuesday by the
Democrats, just as Ware was defeated
IN Philadelphia. If the people forget
Mr.. Pinchot's ardent support of prohibi-
ton, now that the eighteenth amend
ment has been wiped off the books, and
look to him as reform leader,
cleaner-up Of the Republican organiza-
ton, he may yet have a chance, al
though Senator Reed has been consid-
cred one of the most able men on the
Republican side Of the Senate chamber.

lMass.) Union points to prospect Of
restoring initiative and encouraging
further progress" The advantage In
practical planning Is emphasized by the
Rochester Times Union, while the New
ark Evening News advises that "the be-
numbing effect Of bureaucracy can be
prevented If business viii exercise the
sef-discipline and self-controI pro-
posed" The Philadelphia Evening Bull
letin sees prospect OF "a distinct
forward movement toward recovery"
Opposition to the plan is voiced by
the Chicago Daily News on the ground
that most of the details which have
brought the N R. A. into disfayor are
due to the activity of business organiza-
tlonS," and the Chicago Journal of
Commerce finds lack of knowledge as
to the management of credit and profits.

Unfair Assessments.

The Central Citizens Association,
some of whose members have received
notice of special assessments in con-
nection with the repaving of North
Capitol street between G street and
New York avenue, has launched a
protest and is preparing to take the
matter up with the authorities at the
District Building. This is the usual
and traditional procedure whenever
the unfair and unreasonable Borland
law is applied. A law that proyokes
such continued controversy, and
which so arouses the indignation of
those whom its application affects,
has no place on the statute books.
The present case illustrates how far
afield the taxing authorities must go
In levying special assessments against
abutting property owners for improve
ments made to q street in the inter-
est of city traffic. Most of the paving
on North Capitol street was laid be-
tween 1887 and 1893, and the dete-
rioration of age had been hastened by
the heavy traffic which utilizes North
Capitol street as one Of the cityiS
main north and south arteries Little
work had been done on repairing the
street between G street and New York
avenue since 1910. In 1890 the old
pavement was torn up and new pave
ment laid
Under the Borland law abutting
property owners cannot be assessed for
repairs, but only for a new street.
North Capitol being an old street, how
ever, which was opened long before the
Borland law was enacted, the abutting
property owners had never been as
sessed. And because they have never
paid special assessments, the law makes
them liable for assessments now.
Had the abutting property owners
been consulted, and the choice given
them between making adequate repairs
to damaged pavement and being
assessed for new paving, there is little
doubt they would have chosen the
former. Their choice would, of course,
have been influenced by the fact that
one method was cheaper than the other.
But the important thing is that the
repairs would fully have served their
needs as abutting property owners.
The new pavement was laid, not to
benefit them as abutting property
owners, but to benefit the city and gen.
eral property. There is no benefit to
abutttng property, certainly none to
abutting residential property, when a
relatively quiet street is paved or re-
paved and made traffic artery. The
improvement, in such case, is more in
the nature Of a liability, for which
abutting property owners might feel
entitled to damages. Yet the Borland
law, diSregarding the realities of modern
conditions, and continuing to construe
such improvements as those on North
Capitol street as benefiting abutting
property to the extent Of one-third the
cost of the project, continues to be
applied.
The District authorities had an excep-
tional opportunity to rid themselves of
this law after it had been torn to pieces
by the courts. But instead of that, the
old law was patched up to meet certain
specific objections, and its vicious
principle still lives. Continued protest
by the citizens and a showing Of the
laws obvious inequities may yet lead to
its permanent repeaI.
