Finland Carries On

Even in the face of threats that
colossal but laundering Russia is
preparing to strike with crushing
force in the spring, gallant Finland
clearly looks to the immediate future
through no eyes of fear. To betoken
faith in their ability to maintain
their national existence, the Firms
announce their intention of continu-
ing their attractive pavilion at the
New York Worlds Fair during the
1910 season, which begins May II.
A contract to that end, it appears,
was signed as long ago as December
10. Thereby Finland became the first
foreign nation to renew its agree
ment to re-exhibit on "Whalen's
meadows" on Long Island this year.
Possibly there is significance in the
circumstance that Finland's an
nouncement comedies with the
finishing touches now being put upon
the demolition of the huge Soviet
Russian pavilion, situated not far
from the FINNISH eXnlOlC.
It would be in accord with the
eternal fitness of things if this latest
never-say-die manifestation of the
Finnish spirit were to spur favorable
action in Washington with respect to
proposals for extending worth while
American aid to Finland. That con-
gressional opinion remains strongly
opposed to an unrestricted United
States loan to the Helsinki govern
ment is indicated afresh by the atti-
tude of Senator Pat Harrison, chair
man of the Senate Finance Commit
tee, who is also ranking member OF
the Foreign Relations Committee.
The Mississippi Senator would meet
the issue by calling upon the Amer
lean friends of the brave and be-
leaguered republic to join in sub
scribing to bond issue, instead OF
attempting to pass the burden OF aid
to the Federal Government. Mr..
Harrison points out that Finland is
not debarred by the johnson Act
from floating a loan in the United
States.
There is ample evidence that the
rank and file of the American people
are asking the same question about
the muddled Finnish aid situation
"Why all this hesitation?" Many
contributors to the Finnish relief
fund-for purely civilian relief-ac-
company their subscriptions with the
assurance that if the money can be
put to better use in buying bombs
than in buying bread for the Firms
they at least think that is how it
should be spent.
But it is obvious that unrestricted
American financial help for Finland
should be authorized by Congress as
a loan between two sovereign states.
Finland, not yet being a belligerent
In the strictly legal sense, is not
affected by our neutrality law. Still
another reason why unrestricted
financial help should come directly
from governmental sources is that
popular, private subscription for
arms and ammunition could not pos
sibly hope to reach the proportion
required by the emergency. More
over, if a drive were inaugurated for
a popular fund for war materials,
it might conceivably dry up all
sources of money for humanitarian
relief to the civilian population.
These objections are applicable to
Senator Harrison's loan proposal and
there is the further consideration
that flotation of bond issue would
be a slow process, while speed is of
the essence if Finland is to be saved.

Letters to the Editor
Stamp Proposal Sponsor
Replies to Mr.. Cheyney.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Your issue of January Is contains a
letter from Joseph w. Cheyney express
ing the opinion that President Washing
tons proclamation Of March 30, 1871, is
more appropriate to observe in connec-
ton with the issuance of special stamp
to commemorate the establishment of
the District of Columbia than July 16,
1870. the date used by me in my letter to
the Postmaster General, upon which you
commented editorially on January 81.
These questions are covered in detail
by H. P. Caemmerer in his washington,
the National Capital" published as Sen
ate Document No. 322, Seventy first Con-
gress, Sd session, on pages 9, 10 and II.
Acting on the authority contained in
the act of July 16, 1870, President Wash
ington, by proclamation on January "a,
1871. directed the making of prelimi-
nary survey, and, says Mr.. Caemmerer,
This survey was substantially in accord
with the lines subsequently adopted,
moving the southern boundary point of
the 10 miles square farther south so as
to include convenient part Of the
Eastern Branch and also the town of
Alexandria. The act of July 16, 1790,
was thereupon amended accordingly by
act approved March 3, 1791."
Therefore, it is clear that President
Washington selected the present site of
the District of Columbia under the act
of July 16, 1870. and that the act of
March 3. 1791. was passed for the purpose
OF amending the previous act to meet the
wishes of the first President.

Urges Snow Removal
From City Streets.
I should like for some one to ex-
plain to me why it is that Washington,
SO beautiful in the spring, with all its
romantic bloom, should become a win
tertime slough, with our transportation
systems tied up, thus forcing great
numbers of our citizens-if a voteless
person can be called citizen-to walk
to work, wet and half frozen, through
the winter slush?
Most of our cities, and especially the
larger ones, wash their streets every
night, and the snowfall, however deep
it may be, is removed overnight.
We, like other cities, unfortunately
have our full share of unemployed men
who crowd our missions and other places
of public charity for want of food and
a place to sleep. If but given a chance
I am sure these men would be glad to
earn dollar by removing snow and
washing the street.
Now Is the time to start A snow
bank or q slippery street may cost q
life, and lives are valuable
January 26. LEWIS BAILEY.
Wants America to Support
Other Democracies.
To the Editor Of The Star:
When we whites were strictly an Old
World race, we justified our taking over
this New World from the Indians on the
grounds that we would thereby benefit
the whole mankind. America was to be,
not so much for the Americans" (the
Indians) as for all Gods people. On
this basis did we destroy forever the
Indians immemorial isolation.
Now, unless we live up to our declara-
tions in this matter, fulfilling our obli-
cations to God who created and who
owns all the earth, then our fair land is
no longer rightly ours. Any doctrine OF
isolationism is q doctrine that the IN
dians are still the rightful owners Of
America. We are under immense obli-
cation to all the world, and to remain
asleep to this is to sink into the sleep
