Fjirntrr on Our Merchant Msrlnc.
Vigorous opposition Is displayed by
the Winners National Codncll to the
Jones merchant marine bill, which has
passed the Senate and Is now before
tbe llou-e. Whether the opposition
of the Farmers Council Is well
grounded or not. that organization N
to be commended warmly for showing
mi lntcrtt In our merchant marine.
The trouble heretofore has been that
farmers and everybody else, with the
exception of those dwelling along the
seaboard and the lakes, have refused
to take any Interest In or notice of an
American nierchnnt marine.
It l a welcome change therefore
have farmers recognize that even
If jev live hundreds or thouMtnds of
nilleXiwny from'thu seaboard and the
busy iifts the merchant marine nev
crthelessNa very Important factor
In their prosiierlty.
To have the farmers in favor of a
great merchant marine Is a distinct
boon. Their opinion on any measure
having to do with American shipping
should he carefully considered. They
are Intelligent enough to offer fair
criticism If they make Incorrect
deductions we may assume It Is be-
caiiM! their Information Is Incomplete,:
not because they intend to ne their
liilluence for any other purpose than
the good of the nation.
In the present case they base their
objections to th Jones hill on the
premise that It gives the moneyed
Intcfei-ts an opiHirtuillty to buy from
the (iovernment about $2,000,000,009
of ships at a figure far Wow their
value. The Farmers Council also
objects to selling small vessels to for
eign buyers and opposes anything In
the sltapc of a subsidy to help build
up new trade routes. The Council
gets at the heart of the matter by
declaring that the pre-ent bill Is a
blow to Government ownership and
operation of the merchant marine.
No doubt the farmers arc divided
in their opinion about Government
ownership, Just as the rest nf the
population is divided. No decision at
the ballot box has been given by the
nubile either for or against (iovern
ment nvnerhlp of ships, railroads or
any other public utilities. Hut from
the exiiorleiicc of the last three years
it Is a safe assumption the public has
Had It till or (iovornment interfer
ence in private business. Kverythlng
the (Iovernment has touched In that
field has crumbled like clay In its
hands. The railroads, the telephones,
the trolley lines have been brought to
the verge of bankruptcy and their
services to the public have been re
duced to a notoriously appalling state
of Inetllclency.
Now the merchant marine under
C.overnment control already shows
signs of decay, while it has to meet
the most powerful competition of all
comiietltlon from other nations,
whoso merchant fleets are manned by
sailors backed by years of experi
ence and decades of tradition, and
whose labor and other costs of oiK?ra
tlon and maintenance are very much
loner than ours.
We have to ask ourelves whether
we want to rik our merchant marine
in this competition by leaving it In
the hands of incompetent, bureau
cratic management. If not the quicker
we rctore ellicient private manage
ment the better. The Jones hill pro
vides the vehicle for the transfer of
mniiagemeiit. It has been framed by
men who understand the vital place
the merchant licet occupies in our In
ternational relations.
The objections of the Farmers
Council are readily answered. Our
merchant marine was built at a heavy
cost, under pressure of war. The
most ellicient management on earth
could not operate It In competition
with the vessels of other countries
and on Us war cost basis make It pay
for Itself In peace times. The very
be;t that can be done, whether the
C.overnment keeps the ships or turns
them over to private operators, Is to
write down their cost by charging oft
the excess com due to war prices nnd
calling it a war loss. It will not be
a national loss, however, fornnv Ipnirtli
of time. As the fanners realize, tbesj
ships will go nil over the world, car
rying our products to forolcn markets.
earning profits for us and making our
trade Hisltlon more secure.
The Government Will receive fair
prices for the ships. They will save
us from having to pay freight to for
eign nations. They will carry foreign
cargoes and collect foreign freight
chnrges sufilclent to offset any amount
expended In encouraging the exten
sion of trade routes or Increasing the
volume of ship building.
No plan could iKissllily ho devised
for restoring the efflclonoy of the mer
chant marine which wnulil clow nil
loopholes for criticism. Hut Senator

Tho Department of Health will try.
to standardize clinical thermometers,
it fiinioiineex. (ho discovery having
lievli made that unscrupulous makers
are piittllut oor Instruments on the
market. This reform will he welcome
to doctors i'.ad nurses, but what of
hyioehoiiilrlucs? We Imagine that
defectlvo thermometers have brought
a good deal ot sunshine into the lives
of a great ninny people who like to
think they arc sick.
Your hypochondriac wakes up after
eight hours of snoring, announces that
he or she never closed his eyes art
night and heard the clock strike every
hour, nnd then secretly feels badly,
I. e., In good health. Then the faulty
cllulcnl thermometer comes In handy.
The hypochondriac pies Into the si
lence which the use of the Instrument
enforces ami then brings It to the
light and dlsrovers that It regls'ters a
whole degree nloro than the OS 2-5 at
which nature, by means of the most
perfect and inyst prions of furnace
regulators, keeps human blood. Your
hipped person Is happy again: he
"luiB u temiwrntttre." Tm? fancied
fever keeps him lu good spirits for
the rest of the morning. A good ther
mometer wtiuiil hnve shown him that
he was neither warmer nor colder
than other men nnd he would have
been miserable.
This Is an Indoor sport which does
no particular barm and keeps the
glass blowers working overtime. The
only reprehensible users of clinical
thermometer arc those parents who
take their own tcmivratures for
granted hut delight to subject their
ehildt'ii. manifestly In blooming
health, to the ordeal of the Ilttlo tube,
and who call Up tbe doctor uiwu dl
covering that little Willie, whose tern
ponituro Is taken after he has turned
four dozen hamlsprlngs. Is half a de
gree abovo normal.
Whatever tbe authorities do in the
way of reforming clinical thermome
ters, let them keep their bands off
porch thermometers. These spell per
sonal liberty. Everybody should have
the kind of a mercury tube that be
likes on his vornnda. Some commu
ters prefer thermometers that lie in
winter. "It was 21 below on my
stooii this morning when I went down
to fix tho furnace." The trick ther
mometer is asked to perform In only
one direction In winter downward.
In summer It Is different. There are
two classes of thermometer liars lu
tbe dog days. One says "It wns 00
In the shade oil tho north side of my
house last night when I came In from
the tennis court." The other declares
"It never went above 78 nt my phice
In Miasma Manor all dny yesterday,
although It was 1)2 In tbe city."
The men who speak In this fashion
are otherwise good citizens. They
report their Incomes exactly and hes
itate to start cellar breweries until
they hear that all the neighbors are
doing It. In most cases they repeat
Just what the thermometer says;
their only crime Is lu the fact that
they know the thermometer lies. They
like the deceitful thin. It Is so much
more human than the machine which
the Forecaster studies down near the
Hattery. F.vprybody has bad a feel
ing of animosity toward Mr. Sc.nn
at the close of a pitiless day on be
ing told that It wns ten degrees less
cold or less hot than the record. On
occasions like this the home thermom
eter, the gentfe little lying friend, Is a
consolation. I.et not the dead hand
of efficiency make It like all other
thermometers.
Old
Orrttr nunksrds nar
the
Talking Machine.
Our uncompromising friends of the
Old Order Hrnnch of the Church of
the Hrcthrcn refused at their nnnual
conference near Lognnsport, Indiana,
last week, to lift the ban which bars
from the homes of Its eninniiinlcants
the talking machine. At the s 11110
time nn iinsuccessf'til effort was made
by the more rigid members to bar use
of motor driven vehicles. A few stip
iwrters fnr this project wore found,
hut the majority was not opposed to
tbe Internal combustion engine.
In the Old Order Hrnnch are united
the strictest of our Punkards. The par
ent association, formed at Schwartz

ti;n .Mack as Its first minister in pro
test ngalnst the lnck of spirituality in
the State Church, was soon the object
of persecution. Within a dozen years

country was founded near German

to them la reasonable they will no doubt
pay It. There the matter will end. But
If the Allies Insist on too large, a pay
ment it will be the story of 1S70 nnd
1!H over again. Germany will watch
and wait to try to gat It all back with
Interest.
If the remarks of Germany's leading
m?n not simply the leaders of her Gov
ernment but her great bankers, politi
cians and thinkers If their statements
mean anything Germany will never will
ingly commit the same mistakes again.
If no running sore Is left In her side,
such as she left In tho side of France
In 1S70. she no doubt will gradually ro-
'Sume- her place among, the commercial
nations of the world. As she regains
this commercial position the humiliation
of military defeat will be forgotten.
' But If Germany Is forced to enslave
herself Indefinitely to make restitution
for her wrqngs she will never rest until
styi has crushed her oppressors. Even
In her case two wrongs do not make a
right.
This Is a time for grave. and serious
councils. No suggestion should be too
hastily adopted. None should be ills
carded without examination, lly using
our Influence In obtaining a senslhla set
tlement of tbe Indemnity .question In
stead of maintaining n studied aloof
ness, with no benefit to ha derived from
wicli .1 policy, wo may guide thesj Eu
ropean Impulses of hatred, revenge ar.d
militarism Into the channel of more or
jercd unity and peace.
What Influence have we In the situa
tion without entangling ourselves In Eu
ropean disputes? On first sight 'tho
plan. to have us buy bonds to fund tho
German Indemnity arouses our resent
ment. The plan of Mr. Davlron to lend
to Europe through the Government looks
equally undesirable. Mr. Davison la a
banker. He knows the risk of business
In Gxrope Is now so great that unless
Governments cooperate, In some way
them will be a long, hard struggle bo
fore reconstruction even starts. Know
ing tMs he makes an obvious sugges
tion made hundreds of tlmes before,
He wns tho first mnn to formulate a
plan for aiding Europe a thoroughly
practical plan when It was proposed a
year ago and he will probably con
tinue to ruggest the samo Idea In various
forms until tome action Is taken and be
Is vindicated. .
The simple unloading of the In
demnity on this country would be
an outrageous undertaking even If there
were a shadow of possibility that It
could bi done. But suppose we bought
these bonds, secured douEly by Germany
nnd by France, and In buying them vco
dictated how much Indemnity would b
paid and how many bonds would be Is
sued. There. It appears, would be ni
excellent opportunity for achieving two
t obectg lifting the burden of Imme-
i , payment. from Germany, enabling

HENRY CABOT LODGE.
The Massachusetts Senator's Great
Service to His Country.
To The Sun and New York Herald :
i Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massa
chusetts Is being appreciated by the
American people for his great service to
the'eountryi and for the people to have In
his position a Senator so well Informed
regarding the world conditions was de
cidedly beneficial.
Senator Lodge steadfastly fought
against encroachments upon America
and her Institutions led by a man who
seemed obsessed by tho desire to be a
norld d'etator
Senntor Lodge has weathered all
storms set up by vicious political ene-
1 mtes, and It seems to have been a god
send that bis great abilities should nave
been employed as they have been during
the past year to preservo Amerlon for
Americans.
Massachusetts splendidly Indorsed
Senator Lodge nt the April 27 primaries.
I agree with the enterprising town ot
Swampscott when the voters In town
meeting say with marked enthusiasm:
"Wo heartily appreciate the action of
United States Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge In his successful efforts to pro
tect the' American Constitution In the
revision of the peace treaty. We believe
that Senator Lodge has rendered to the
nation one of the greatest services ever
recorded by nn American statesman In
protecting this country ngalnst foreign
encroachments contrary to the spirit of
our Constitution and to those laws which
are wholly governed by Congressional
action." Edwin W. Inoalls.

! PROFITS OF HOTEL BARS.
! In Some Cases They Paid a Lnrge.
Part of the Itunnlng Expenses.
I To The Scn and New YonK Herald:
It Is a pleasure to answer Terry Lukens
'as to why hotels close.
I have built, owned and carried on
1 five large hotels nnd am thoroughly
1 cognizant of the situation therein. The
! profits from tho bar pay all wages,
running expenses nnd loss on restaurant,
' which occurs In well run hotels, and
other sundry expenses, leaving the rooms
' to pay the taxes and Interest on the In
' vestment, and when you take out the
j bar the Jiotel is a financial failure.
I History shows thnt all Innkeepers de
' pended upon the quality and quantity
of their grog, and history is the only
,'ltisoa to go by. Tho hotels may pos-'
1 sibiy. for a time charge such a foolishly
high price for their" rooms and food
that they can live temporarily, but In
flation ln everything soon must end, nnd
then many of the finest structures In
tho United States of formerly free
' America will bo nothing but piles of
wasted bricks and mortar, victims of
this modern Inquisition, prohibition.

Ri'Itish Writer Arraigns Presi
dent Wilson for 'Meddling'
In Europe.
II. S. UTOPIA STIKS WOULD
Dondlock Hero Prevents Quick
Settlement of Peace in
Some Form.
fi ri0, Cabu B(,palr;i to Tm Scn and Kw
yiIK llKtxUh copyright, llto, bu Tun 8cs
AM) New ymK umw.
,.. an The refusal by tho
League of Natloni to accept the man
date for Armenia has occasioned a bit
ter nrrnlgnment of President Wilson for
"meddling" In European peace affairs by
Frederic Harrison, formerly Herbert
Spencer lecturer at Oxford nnd ono of
tho oldest and beat known writers In
England. In the Fortnightly Bccletc,
He attacks the yilson policies and de
dare thut tho President stirrid up Eu
rope's hope for .1 Utopian peace, nnd
then America withdrew and "left Its
deserted comrades In the war to deal
with confusion In Europe nnd to pacify
the furious hopes and hates of tho
races,"
Mr. Harrison tnkes tho growlngly
popular view here that the league of
Nations nt present Is an empty mockery
and a shnm. and ho charges that tho"Blg
Three" treat the league as though It were
a separate, unfriendly Power and not ono
of them In point of fact: that while the
league has neither authority nor arms
tho "Big Three" have great armies In
the field and great nations in their hands.
The league has nothing but cofltly
officials, commissions nnd aresolutions,"
he says. "To protect a small Stato It
has no more real power than has the
Society for the Protection of Women nnd
j Children."
I.ronne Bankrupt Without V. 9.
Again he says:
"It Is now certain that America will
never work out In Europo tho. Wllsonlan
covenant. Without America the league
Is bankrupt It Is n dud.
"Lot us face the facts and cease to
chaso a Utopian mirage. Our three
allies must do tho best they can to clear
up the urgent problems which are
J threatening us all with ruin."
He says that It Is not for the British
.to judgo the political deadlock between
the Democratic President and tho He
publican Senate. "But see the result of
that deadlock on the world!" he ex
claims, "It Is plain that tlu league
covenant and tho President's fourteen
points were the American conditions
which that republic brought, with tho
rnnrmmiff wplirht nf hpr wpnlth. hpr In
exhaustible armies and her natural rcl
sources, into the war. But for that
covenant Great Britain, France and
Italy would have made a quick, plain,
direct peace In some form with their
enemies.
"But the terms of the American inter
vention entirely transformed the whole
situation. Civilized nations bad been
banded Into a moral alliance. Peace had
been bound tip with the American Utopia
and fifty .nations of Europe and Asia
had been fired with a passion for self
assertion at tho call of the biggest of
the Entente Powers.
America Refuses) Own Crrntlon.
"Then the domestic quarrel In the
American Republic broke ouu She with
drew from action In tho council, but she
did not withdraw from words. Itef using
to meet the council, refusing men,
money and goods nnd her own creation,
the League of Nations, she does not
cease to complain nnd to Interfere, both
Officially and unofficially, ln the doings
of her own allies and the execution of
her own treaty.
"She will not ratify her own treaty
and yet she condemns her allies who
have ratified theirs. The President Will
do nothing, will meet no one, will discuss
nothing, and yet he claims the right to
dictate to us and wished to censure us
from bis sick room.
"Senators, Mayors and the press bark
nnd growl about British attempts to
settle the convulsions of the world
which the American Republic will not
touch. Inasmuch as she passes by on
the other tide. And meanwhile ths jour
nals, and even important public men,
use Ireland, Egypt, India and the seas
as counters ta their own party game.
"We well know the supreme necessity
of a good understanding between our
peoples and the awful consequences of
ruptures. Our public men and our press
bear tho Insults and the Injuries In si
lence. But a man who le wholly Inde
pendent of any party or place; a man
who throughout hts lifetime hns hon
ored the greatness and the destiny of
that Republic, may fairly ask in this
terrible hour when civilization Is In such
sore straits: Is It an honorable part for
so glorious a nation to Jeer n good Sa
maritan while It prefers to "pass by on
the other sldo'?"
Mr. Harrison tuys that tbe action of
the League of Nations In- declining to
accept the mandate for Armenia was a
sore blow after all that Americans and
Britons nave done for the Armenians
from the time of Gladstone and Salis
bury. "What ft mockery Is this league, which
In Its consolidated might 6f big Powers
was to protect small, weak States!" he
declares.
He assert!, that what wns possible In
191S Ih Impossible now when tho armies
f.ave melted away, nnd concludes:
"Surely the awful prospect of the final
extermination of a Christian nation
must appeal to th? great American peo
ple, who for generations have worked
so hard and promised so much to help
the oppressed races of Turkey. Ameri
can missionaries and philanthropic
have done moro for the Armenians than
have any people of Europe. It was tho
American" press and the American rep
resentatives who during the war and
the peace conference most passionately
pleaded for a league of nations to pro
tect the weak peoples In the East. The
belief of the World was that whatever
other task the Republic undertook, the
mandate to save Armenia woitfd be her
obvious duty. Now an Internal dispute
nscms to reject that and every European
cause until after March I. 1921. at the
earliest."
