The Cook Comes Back.

Civilized man, says the ancient
adage, cannot live without cooks; and
the truth Of the judgment Is dem
onstrated by nothing else so well as
by the temporary absence from the
kitchen of the culinary artist who by
long experience has learned exactly
what family and friends want and
how and when. If one would be
thoroughly miserable, no better ex-
pedient for the attainment Of that
end could be devised than that of
permitting the queen Of the frying
pans and double boilers to 60 on
vacation.
Theoretically, it would seem that a
cook may have q substitute on short
notice. 1t does happen in certain

cannot fill the bill. She may try her
best, but, even so, her endeavors will
be unlikely to give complete satisfsc-
ton. Only by the tedious process Of
trial and error will she learn that Mr..
A. prefers his toast burnt to a crisp

next Fall and again in 1886 is = bit

A new chairman Of the national COM
mittee will be expected to stir the
broth. That, indeed, is the purpose
of choosing . new chairman. Whether
q new chairman would in reality have
the slightest effect on the situation Is
conundrum. 1t is the condition Of
the people, particularly of their pocket
books and their stomachs, which de-
termines political issues under a re-
publican form of government. Leaders
may point out the issues; they do not
make them.
So perhaps the choice of a new
chairman of the Republican National
Committee may not be as important
as some of the Republicans, especially
the candidates, deem 1t. Neverthe-
less, the type of man, his political
philosophy, who steps into Mr.. San
ders' shoes next month-provided, Of
course, the Republicans are able to
unite on a new chairman-will have
its Importance. Reams will be written
about him, and attempts will be made
to show that the Republican party is
going this way or that because Of the
new chairman's own political and eco
nomic bent.

Lump Sum Increase.

A basic 1nequlty OF the lump sum
system of appropriations is that it
strictly limits the size of the Federal
contribution, but places no propor-
tionate maximum limitation ON the
amount of local revenues to be spent
The prevention of that tendency
was one of the chief aims of the
fixed ratio system of dividing Capital
City expenses between the National
Government and the local community
Limitations were fixed by law on the
amount of the unrepresented tax
payers money that could be spent,
these being measured by the amount
of the national contribution.
Financing under the lump sum
practice results in placing limit
upon the amount of his own money
which may be spent by the omnipo-
tent national partner, with exclusive
power of legislation and appropria-
ton in his hands, and removes all
limits Of the amount which the ma
tional partner may exact for Capital
upbuilding from the impotent local
partner. the District taxpayer, the
only party to the transaction who
needs a protective limitation.
Under lump sum practice the only
limitation is on the amount of the
national contribution, and this, in re-
cent years, has been arbitrarily re-
duced and fixed without relation to
an equitable division of expenses.
The most important task before the
Senate Subcommittee on District Ap-
preparations as it approaches the end
of its consideration of the pending
bill is to increase the lump sum to
some amount approximating equitable
considerations. Applying the same
formula to increasing the Federal
contribution that the Bureau Of the
Budget applied last year in reducing
it. Auditor Donovan showed the Sem
ate committee last Spring that the
lump sum should have been some
thing more than s6,Ooo 900, instead
of $5,7o0o0o, because of increases in
the appropriation bill over Budget
Bureau estimates. This year the
Budget Bureau estimates for 1885
have been increased over the appro-
priations for 1894, and If the Senate
committee, in line with its fair policy
of the past, permits additional appro-
priations for necessary local under
takings-such as, for instance, ade-
quate care of tuberculosis patients as
recommended by the committee of
doctors, which recently Investigated
the subject-the 1885 bill will be in
creased still more over the 1884 bill.
The lump sum should at least be in
creased proportionately from the IRE
ducible minimum of s5,700,000.

prospective election of new head
Chairman Everett Sanders, who has
been in office ever since he was Sc
1ected in 1882 by former President
Hoover to run the campaign of that
year, has called meeting to choose
his successor. Up to the present time
there has been a plethora Of candi-
dates for the job, many of them with
their flags raised even before Mr.. San
ders announced his intention Of re-
signing. The difficulty, however, is to
find a new chairman who would I'LL
the requirements for party leadership
laid down by the various factions in
the party itself. Senator Borah Of
Idaho. for example, has a very differ
ent idea Of what the Republican party
should be from that held, for instance,
by senator Dav1d A. Reed OF Pennsyl-
vania, or Ogden Mills, former Secre-
tary of the Treasury. It is probable
that Senator Norris of Nebraska has
= somewhat different view respecting
the party than is held by either Mr..
Borah or Mr.. Mills.
What is to be done? It would be as
difficult to reconcile the views Of these
various party groups as to find the
chameleon-like leader required to
please all of them. There are those
who believe the q. o. P. should move
distinctly to the left. Others are
shouting for a move to the right.
Perhaps more are calling for a mid
-the-road attitude, neither too
radical nor too liberal.

Canal Revival.
rom the Asbury Park Evening Press.


Army engineers are surveying Ca
mails again, particularly in Ohio. A
recent report recommended the build
ing of a canal from Youngstown, by
way Of the Mahoning and Beaver
Rivers, down to the Ohio. It would
help heavy traffic in an important
section of the American Ruhr, moving
coal northward cheaply from South
ern Ohio, West Virginia and Ken
lucky to the steel mills Of the Ma
honing Valley. 1t would also give iron
and steel southern water outlet
down the Ohio and Mississippi. This
is project foreseen by George WASH
ington. A canal was built on the
same route a century ago, and used
until the railroads supplanted it
about the time of the Civil War.
The Government has now directed
its engineers to report on routes for
other canals. which would join Lake
Erie with the Ohio. One possible
route would run from Toledo to Gin
cinnati, one from Sandusky to Ports
mouth and one, farther east, from
Ashtabula to Pittsburgh by way of
the Allegheny River.
The first two of these differ little
from the old canals, now abandoned
for half a century, which connected
Cleveland and Toledo on Lake Erie
with Portsmouth and Cincinnati. re-
spectively, on the Ohio. The third, o
shorter route, has been talked of ever
since Pittsburgh became 0 great steel
center. It would give Pittsburgh and
lower river cities cheaper iron ore
from Lake Superior. Any one Of
these routes, in way, would match
the new barge canal from Chicago
to the Mississippi. All would feed
into. and from. the Great Iakes-St.
Lawrence Waterway.
We seem to be coming into q new
canal era, with the canals used to
supplement- railroads in q balanced,
unified transportation system.

so grotesque and feeble In the light

The Soviet in Default.

BY Q ruling just rendered by Attor-
ney General Cummings, the Soviet
Union Is held in default to the United
States on account of the Czarist and
Kerensky debts due to this country,
aggregating 100000. According
to the same ruling. made in response
| to a State Department inquiry as to
the status of our war debtors under
the johnson act, the five nations
which have merely made token" pay
ments on their debts, instead of the
full installments due, are declared
not to be in default. An exception in
the same category is gallant little Fin
land, which alone among the debtors
has kept its slate clean.
The Soviet government, which to-
days Moscow dispatches depict as in
censed over the Cummings ruling, has
always held that it has no RESPONSE
bility for any -Bolshevist debts
contracted by Russia and can there
fore not be stigmatized as a defaulter.
The practical and immediate factor in
the situation is that placing the Soviet
in the default category automatically
debars the Communist government
from obtaining through The newly Gre
ated Export Import Bank or any other
American quarters those extensive
credits necessary for large-scale pur-
chase of goods in the United States.
The johnson act expressly and uncon-
ditionally forbids financial aid to any
foreign countries adjudged in debt
default in America.
The -Bolshevist debts have con-
sistently been regarded at Washing
ton as just obligations which the
United States is entitled to collect.
Moscow's equally consistent refusal to
acknowledge their validity was one
of the principal stumbling blocks to
American recognition of the Soviet
government. When Foreign Commis-
sar Ltvinoff was here last Winter and
laid the groundwork for recognition.
there was a definite understanding
upon the part of the United States
that American debt claims, together
with claims for American property
confiscated by the Soviet authorities,
would sooner or later be adjusted along
with certain counter claims put for
ward by the Soviet in connection with
American military operations In
Siberia in 1918.
Negotiations looking to an all
around settlement of these various is
sues have been in progress at Mos
COW and Washington since the estab-
lishment of diplomatic relations. But
it will strike most Americans as only
right and reasonable that until some
sort of agreement has been arrived at
with regard to the hundreds of mil
lions previously advanced to Russia
no further supply of United States
capital should be made available.
! American export trade is anxious to
avail itself of the opportunities which
the Soviet market may afford, but
until this fundamental business of
the -Bolshevist debts is out of the
way, in some definite and reliable
form, trade must wait. That is
plainly the true inwardness of the
Attorney Generals default decree, as
far as the Soviet is concerned.
