Any book list is interesting to book

This is because book, in itself, Is an
interesting thing
We know no more interesting thing to

In many offices, rows Of books are to
be seen, and these offer entertainment to
the visitor Often while he is cooling
his heels" in the anteroom, he may
entertain himself by looking over the
books.
There is something about such a selec-
ton which tells great deal about the

then the man is interested in mathe-

The works may deal with business
topics. Hence it is easy to deduct that
the collector Is a business man.
The list may be historical. History is a

Thinks Americans Have Missed
British "Joy and Confidence"
To the Editor Of The Star.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Just as Americans traditionally have
been known to be lively and happy
people with unbounded confidence in
overcoming obstacles, just 50 have they
always failed to find any joy in grim or
serious things. 1t Is characteristic Of us
not to understand the unsmiling British
humor. Anything without smile is dull.
winston Churchill inspired Joy and
confidence in the English hearts by his
famous blood sweat, and tears" phrase.
I pictured them at that time with their
mouths firmly set and radiance in their
eyes. Have we come to know this joy7
I am afraid not We do not have 1t in
the way our ancestors did when Thomas
Paine wrote: These are the times that

Argues for Reward Claims
OF Panama Canal Builders.
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor Of The Star:
Frank r. Kent, one of your writer's,
had this to say in The Star of February
9, 1912, regarding the passage of pension
legislation: For example, there is the
proposal to pension all civilian workers
Or their widows-who were engaged in
construction of the Panama Canal %
years ago. This would add close to two
million year to the pension load.
of Florida it was jammed through the
Senate and now goes to the House"
am sure that Mr.. Kent did not un-
derstand the purpose of this legislation
designed to reward the citizens who rem
dered service in the building of the
Panama Canal. In the first place 1t is
not a pension-it represents a reward
for unusual, meritorious and dangerous
service rendered by the Canal builders
for our country. 1t was not jammed
through the Senate by Senator Pepper.
as Mr.. Kent states; as it was sponsored
jointly by Senators Pepper and Clark of
Missouri and 1t had the unanimous ap-
proval Of the Inter oceanic Canals Com
mittee of the 18th. 18th and 77th Con-
gress. 1t was twice passed by the Senate.
will not debate the justice Of this
legislation but will refer to a statement
by Senator Clark on the floor of the SEN
ate on February 3, 1912: "All the pending
bill would do would be to give to the
diminishing number of survivors of those
engaged in that very hazardous and
heroic achievement, the construction of
the Panama Canal, comparable treat
ment with that given others, who. in
many cases, as I have said, did precisely
the same kind Of work during the con-
struction period"
The yearly cost of the legislation would
not be close to s., 1000 900 annually, as Mr..
Kent intimates. From the most reliable
information obtainable the cost for the
first year would not exceed $750,000,
which would decline rapidly until 1t was
finally terminated in few years because
the average age Of the beneficiaries Is
now SO years. j. j. BRIDGES.

Wants Men Put to Work
Before Women Are Drafted.

TC the EDITOR OF Ihe SCaf.
The proposal to appropriate $500 yo0o,00
for the benefit Of those who have become
unemployed due to the defense program
is indefensible, considering the hue and
cry-in which Mrs Roosevelt joins-to
register and employ women in the factory
and on the farm.
Before women are drafted to do farm
and factory work, it seems TO me the
unemployed men should be put to work.
Believe me, the people are awake.
They do know there is war going on.
They do realize how serious the situa-
ton is. They are going to hold those In
power responsible for the outcome.
MRS. COMMON SENSE.

Now, laughing at adversity is a fine

Complains About Transfer System as Part
OF Local Transportation Problem.
To the Editor Of The Star:
One of the major faults of the trans
portation system in Washington IS the
system of transfers. 1t seems to me that
there are, in general, enough streetcars
and enough buses, but their routes are
planned for the greatest number of
transfers. This condition obtains in all
parts of the city.
About year ago wrote to the Capital
Transit Co., suggesting changes which
might be made in the routes, and I re-
ceived a very courteous reply. They
stated that my residence was in newly
developed part of the city and 1t was
difficult to get good transportation to
that part.
Last month wrote, as an individual, to
the Public Utilities Commission, express
ing the same ideas, and also stating that
some of the transfer points are very dan
gerous. The reply which I received was
very badly written and almost insulting.
1t stated that it was an economy for the
streetcars to have short runs and that
since the Priorities Commission had de-
manded greater economy, if there were
any changes, there would be more trans
fers rather than fewer.
From its name, I would take it that the
Public Utilities Commission is for the
public interest, but the convenience of
the public does not seem to be considered.
1t certainly does not increase the
morale Of the people of Washington to
have longer working hours and jaded
nerves from such long tiresome hours on
streetcars and buses. H. j. w.
