has assumed and scrupulously MAIN
tanned the care of war widows and
war orphans as sacred compact
with the dead. And where our dead
soldiers orphans have been robbed
of millions of dollars, through yearly
embezZlements, England, on the au-
thority of her ministry of pensions,
has no record of a single case in
which a guardian has misappropriated
monies that belonged to a child"
America Too Poor.
America has no means to spare, be-
yond a maximum Of Sl20 year, for
the maintenance and education of any
soldiers son or daughter. Yet had
their father been an English. Scot
tish, French or Italian soldier these
children could enjoy good home,
and the best education the land af-
fords. provided only that their brains
could receive it: in any case, they could
drink their mental fill. in arts, SCI
ence or industry. Further. their
health. their comfort and happiness
and their moral we'll being would be
watched and guarded, the while, with
sedulouS care.
And where the widows Of our battle
casualties must be left to the work
ings of a mechanical law, untempered
and unadjusted to any personal con-
tingency, the systems of the other
countries see in the widow human
being, who, for her husbands sake,
must be treated as such, with care
ard thoughtfulness.
Her former way Of life and her
present needs and vicissitudes must
be considered, says England.
Her home-making instinct must be

fostered: she must be secured in her
home with her children about her, de-
clares France.
She must be provided with home
and with "house of repose" for
periods Of recuperation and peace out
of her busy life; she must be cared
for and honored for her husbands s
sake, says Italy.
America alone has harbored no such
notions.
Expenditures for Veterans.
The American Legion's lobby rightly
claims fatherhood of most of Amer
ica's World War veterans legislation.
Due to their energy as lobbyists, the
number of our World War pensioners
increased by 886 per cent between
1919 and 1929-but in every other
country they showed a substantial
decrease. Due to their manipulating
of Congress. America spent upon ben
efits for World War eX-service men
in 1882 s36,692,245 more than was
spent for that purpose and in that
tint BY France, Germany and the
United Kingdom combined.
But in almost all of the schemes,
the prime object of the lobby usually
has been to add to the numbers OF
persons drawing pensions; this rather
than to increase the awards to any
class Of individuals. A man drawing
a Sl2 monthly disability allowance
has one vote to deliver; if his al
lowance were doubled he would have
no more. Spread the money, then,
and build up the voting machine; for
in numbers lies power.

posing, and what the administration
is doing, is merely some sort Of ordi-
nary Democratic program. The truth
is it is not Democratic, and decidedly
it is not ordinary But much of the
country will think it is ordinary so
long as it is only the Republicans who
conspicuously oppose it. The Republi-
cans monopolizing the opposition is a
condition which facilitates, rather
than interferes with, the administra-
ton going on toward its objectives.
Another Handicap.
The Republicans are handicapped in
another way. Many of the old Re-
publican leaders are-the word is not
too strong-discredited When the
public reads that ex-senator James E.
Watson of Indiana wants to displace
Everett Sanders as chairman of the
Republican National Committee the
public, suspect, ShrugS its shoulders
and keeps on its way. That there is
little truth in the story does not
matter. Every and any emergence OF
names of the long familiar Republican
leaders, the Republican professional
officeholder type of the past 30 to 40
years-every emergence of such as op-
ponents of tfce Roosevelt administra-
ton or as aspirants to power in place
of the Democrats-every such Incl
dent, I suspect. is rather an aid to
Mr.. Roosevelt.
sort of development among the Re-
publicans. There is talk of new blood, II
new leadership" That might help.
But the time is rather short. We are
on the eve of campaign for whole
new Lower House and for a third of
the Senate. Nominations will begin
! in few weeks, the campaign between
the two parties will be under way by
July or August and the election will
| take place in November. To reorganize
the Republican party in the sense of
getting new leadership in all or most
of the States would take longer time
than is available for the purpose of
influencing the outcome of the coming
congressional elections.
Similarly. the time Is too short for
a new party. At least, the time is too
short for new party that can have a
major part in the coming Congress
sional election. Conditions may pos
sibly make new party inevitable by
the next presidential election, in 1896.
But that may be too late to arrest
the revolution. If next Fall Con-
gress is elected which does Mr.. Roose-
velt's will as generally as the present
one has, in that event, with two more
years of revolutionary legislation, the
process will have gone too far by 1886
to be arrested. except by subsequent
counter-revolution.
Debate Imperative.
Moreover, organization Of a new
party would take even more time than
reorganization of the Republican
party. Organization of a new party
may readily occur, it may force itself
as a result of the novel and deep
reaching conditions. About a new
party one thing can be said. What

Acts as Police Agents.

be matter of record at the precinct
police station. If his eccentricities are
especially notable, he may expect a
call from a detective who will invite
him to explain himself.
This surveillance follows the resi-
dent in Italy from town to town as
well as while he is at home. If you go
to new city, you must register with
the police there, and when you get
back home you must tell the police
about that, too. Tourists seldom feel
these regulations. since hotel clerks
make the necessary reports, but resi-
dents in the country are recorded on
police blotters whenever they move
from place to place.
New Manifesto Issued.
The new manifesto just issued here
follows:
Article /. From the hour Of the Ave
Maria (sunset) until dawn of the fol-
lowing day, proprietors Of buildings
are not allowed to leave open more
than one entrance giving onto public
street. Any other entrances must be
closed with two or more bars If the
doors consist of two leaves" and
locked with key.
Article 2. This one entrance may
remain open until 10 pm. and the
proprietor is responsible for illumina-
ton of the entrance, corridors and
all staircases.
Article g. After 10 pm. this one en-
trance also must be secured by two or
more bars If the door consists of two
leaves" and locked with a key.
Article 4. This door may be left
open only on condition that watch
man is stationed there at all times
constantly on guard and that the
building is illuminated as described In

BY MARK SULLIVAN.

A NY report which would confine
n itself to existing facts would
~ be obliged to record that as
1 \ yet there is no organized.
widespread opposition to what
is being done by the administration
at Washington.
In using the phrase what is being
DONE" I am conscious of taking
refuge in banal generalization. Pres
ident Roosevelt has spoken of it as
a "readjustment"-I quote from his
message to Congress on January 8,
last: "* a permanent readJust-
ment of many Of our ways OF thinking
and therefore of many of our social
and economic arrangements.
I imagine those phrases to have
been, on Mr.. Roosevelt's part, con-
sciously restrained way of describing
what is in fact a revolution. Mr.
Roosevelt rarely uses directly the
word revolution" Some of his as
sociates, sympathetic to what he Is
doing, say, as in admiration OF MS
political astuteness and his skill In
words, that in all his campaign last
year he used the word revolution"
only once. What Mr.. Roosevelt Is
doing, however, is revolutionary. the
drastic quality of his actions, rela-
tive to the mildness or innocuous IN
directness of his words, has led to
"wisecrack," a modified version OF a
familiar old saying: President Roose-
velt's bite is worse than his bark"
Radicals Are Frank.
If Mr.. Roosevelt avoids, publicly at
least, the word revolution" the radi-
Gals, who compose the energetic ma
jority of his administration, do not
refrain. They speak frankly OF what
they are doing as revolution-they
use the word with pride in their &C
tions, with confidence in what tney
hope to accomplish.
Call it "readjustment" or "revolu-
ton" or by any name whatever, all
that needs to be said for the purpose
of this article is that many persons
oppose it, and many more would op-
pose it if they understood what 1t Is
especially what it contemplates. the
ultimate phase which is its objective
and will be attained unless there Is
prompt and effective opposition.
The only existing organized oppo-
sition is the Republican party-and
for this purpose the Republican party
is seriously handicapped. When, for
example, Chairman Everett Sanders of
the Republican National Committee
issues a blast against the Roosevelt
administration the natural reaction
of great numbers of people is to
assume that Mr.. Sanders and the
Republicans would be issuing some
kind or other of blast no matter what
the Democratic administration might
be doing. The very fact that opposi-
ton comes from Republicans as such
numbs its effect. 1t Is without doubt
fact that If Mr.. Roosevelt had fol-
lowed any course whatever the Re
publican party would be opposing him.
Consequently many take it for granted
that what the Republicans are op-

Hall, Philadelphia, there most ftly to
sign its declaration of principles.
Aid Proposed.
This document ranges its sub
scribers in militant opposition to all
such political brigandage as that In
which the Legion's lobby has SC
long run unchecked. In so doing the
new organization, in the specific mat
ter of the World War widows, has ex-
pressed itself thus:
Whereas, The widows of World
War veterans who were actually
killed in combat. or who died as a
direct result of diseases or injury in
CURED in actual line of duty, have
been receiving from the Government
compensation of $50 month: and.
whereas, This amount is INSULT
cient;
BE it resolved, That compensa-
ton of all surviving widows of those
veterans who we're killed in combat.
or who died prior to November IL,
1920, as a direct result of disease or
injury incurred in fact, and not pre-
sumptively. in actual line Of duty, be
increased from $50 to $50 a month,
providing that such surviving widows
must have been married to such vet
Grams prior to November IL, 1918, and,
providing further, that all compensa-
ton to such widows shall cease If
they remarry."
Ray of Hope.
This provision points. in one re-
spect, to q new identification with
the standards OF the civilized world.
In England the widow, to be pension
able. must have married her husband
before his disablement or discharge
from the army. In France the in
dustry of marrying an ex-soldier for
the widows pension cannot be sue
cessfully pursued. In Italy no widow
is eligible to pension unless the mar
riage was arranged before the hus-
bands injury was sustained.
This new organization, the Amer
ican Veterans Association. seems to
bring breath Of fresh air. ray of
light, into the black hole down which
the whole subject of American wal
pensions has plunged.

niving with Congress, bambooZling the
Nation and shaming honest men-all
in the name of the soldier disabled
in war-has left behind it in
raids upon the peoples property a
clue to the object-a clue so simple
and SO incredibly obvious that it has
been practically invisible.
Liberty Declared Surrendered.
The simple and credulous Ameri-
can public, each year since 1920. has
fallen stupefied before the noise of
dishpan and poker. it has surrendered
its substance. its liberty and the sub
stance and liberty Of its children yet
unborn to the clamerous rapacity of
human drones.
To study our veterans" legislation,
ground out year by year, by Congress
under guidance Of the Legion lobby,
is to perceive the antipodal distance
between the name under cover of
which the work is done and the ma
ture of the work itself. Everything
is aimed, so the public is passionately
assured, to relieve the distress of the
disabled war veteran, that helpless
and cruelty neglected" suffer, for
his defense Of our flag. The plea, in
itself, is sovereign. No decent human
being in any civilized country denies
the right of a man disabled in fight
ing his country's battles at his coun-
try's call 60 every relief and assistance
that hs country can give. One
stands amazed-ashamed-before the
implication that America. alone out
of all the Western nationals, denies
that right. Yet, year after year, even
to the present 1884, the Legion's
lobby publicly declares that it will
continue the fight to wrest from the
American people decent and proper
care for the disabled.
