AN AWAKENING AT PENN
. A PHACTICAIj scne of Immedlnte re

Provect 1'cnnlninn's nniinunccincnt thnt the
University of Pennsylvania Is preiinrlng te
launch Its eampnign for a $10,000,000 en
dowment fttml.
It hnd been hoped that General Weed
Would lend his personal distinction te this
undertaking, but tlilt presram has been dis
turbed by the postponement of his investi
ture in an academic office. The period of
-waiting has nnttirally increased the finan
cial burdens of the institution. The Unl
aTerity is in serious ant of the endow
Bent sought.
"A Dr. Pcnnlnian's disclosure of a change of
plans was made te the Maryland Club of the
University In Ilaltiinere. There will be a
cordial and interested hearing of further In
formation en the subject when the drive is
formally inaugurated In this city and
throughout the country.
Fortunately, organisatien of the project
Is te be made upon a solid and extensive
scale. The central office of the Endowment
'Committee will be established nt the Uni
nyersity, and there will be the necessary
'co-operation by the out-of-town alumni.
The need of the University for this finan
cial backing, modest in comparison with
endowments possessed by some ether insti
tutions of hichcr learning, has long been In
disputable. The news that a great work Is
.te be vigorously prosecuted, even before the
arrival of the new head, is welcome nnd
calculated te bear well-deserved fruit.
tP i LLUUUh UVtK HUM
t fpWO crises arc dovetailed, or rather a
( 1 X situation of chronic delicacy lias been
" ) ' veneered with factional incidentals in the
p. ' latest dilemma which the Prime Minister
. of Great llritaln has been called upon te
f face.
'' i ' The political externals of the case are of
),j ' a savory sensatiennllsm reminiscent in a
'1 i way of the Wilsen-Lansing tlare-up. Mr.
". i j Lloyd Geerge is deeply exed at the pre-

The irritated Prime Minister asserts that
this independence of action Is indefensible
and would, If adopted as n policy by ether
' overseas dominions, result in the disruption
of the foreign policy of the empire, im
periling Its very existence. .Mr. Montagu's
resignation has been demanded and re
ceived. fa British political circles interest In Mr.
Lleyd Geerge's maneuvering abilities is
naturally keen. It is intimated that the
forces of conservatism, lately restive under
the Coalition Government, will be strength
ened In the appointment of a new Indian
Secretary.
' Winsten Churchill is prentinently men
tioned for the pest. Hut the expected sur
vival of the present Lloyd Geerge adminis
tration will leave virtually untouched the
Basis for Mr. Montagu's drnstlc move.
His appeal for a redrafting of the treaty.
which has offended coalescing elements in
the Mohammedan world, Is said te have been
publicly made at the request of the Viceroy,
Lord Reading. Ah this administrator is in
no sense a sensationalist, It Is plain that
the problem of unrest in India has reached
a critical stage.
Islam, which was by no means solidly pro pre
vTurkish while the Ottomans were installed
4n Europe, has grown increasingly resent
linl in the progress of events in the Near
""East. In Egypt, in India, even It Is said in
these French and Dutch possessions peo
pled by Moslems, a new fusion of purposes
"has been manifested.
'It has net been forgotten that for cen
turies the religious prestige once enjoyed by
the Caliphate at Ilagd.ul centered in Con
stantinople. That historic city is new
teralnally under the joint control of the
Allies, but it is no secret that Uritlsh in
,Jluence there Is paramount. What remains
'of the old Otteman Empire Is new restricted
.te a comparatively binall territory in Ana
tolia. The unification of Mohammedan sentiment
is a danger which has frequently been dis
cussed, but the dissensions of Sunnite and
Shllte sects, the racial antagonisms between
Turanian Turks and pure-blooded white
Semitic Arabs have militated against any
really formidable cohesion.
It Is of record that the aristocrats 'of
Jatecca and Medina long chafed under Turk
ish suzerainty, and Prince FeNul nnd the
bribes of the Hedjaz gave, in trielr assist
ance te the Allies in the war, solid proof of
thU antipathy. The belief seems te have
"been entertained in England that n division
of Mohammedan sentiment could be penna
'aently effected.
' Apparently the French was the first of
Christian Governments te realize the basic
ally unchanging nature of the East. A
trractical result of this view was the nego
tiation of the treaty of Angera, which
recognized the Government of Mustapha
JCemal and suggested a deliberate policy of
conciliation with Moslem interests.
The feeling prevails in Paris that Eng
lish opposition te this covenant Is likely te
subside under pressure from recent events.
.Developments of the Near East conference
seen te be held in the French capital may
jreact significantly te the serious situation in
India.
M While it is true that In that empire the
followers of the Prophet number only about
' per cent of the total population, pro pre
tests against the extinction of Turkey fit

ttcal non-belligerent. The Mohammedan
faith Is historically grounded In conquest
and conversion by the sword.
Hut the Gnndhlan philosophy has already
in several Instances been proved te be tee
rarefied for certain classes of Hindus who
may conceivably be stimulated by aggressive
Moslem principles.
The complexity of Britain's Moslem prob
lem Is unquestionably serious.
It is reasonable te assume that tact in
nfler-wnr policies has net Invurlnbly been
exerted in the various colonial offices In
Londen. A political upheaval may be
averted by Mr. Lloyd Geerge'H dexterity.
Hut the appointment of a new Secretary of
State for India will net clear up a situation
bristling with ominous possibilities. There
are grave fundamentals which must be skill
fully attacked before a solution of an in
tricate problem Is in sight.
DEMOCRATS ARE READY TO
CLEAN HOUSE IN HARRISBURG
Hew About the Republicans? The
Voters Want This Question An
swered Pretty Soen
IF THEHE is te be n Republican victory
In Pennsylvania this year the party lead
ers will have te concentrate their attention
en nominating the strongest possible ticket
instead of en "taking care of" the leaders
In the different parts of the State.
If there had been any doubt of this, all
uncertainty Is removed by the unanimous
agreement of the Uemecatlc State Commit
tee en a State ticket.
The Democrats have been divided by fac
tionalism for twenty years or mere. Whether
the factionalism originated in irreconcilable
differences among the Demecrnts or whether
It wns deliberately festered by the Repub
lican organization through denls with self
seeking Democratic leaders Is net material
just new. The factions have come together.
Judge Ilnnniwell and Vance Mcl'ermlck have
agreed en a ticket, nnd the ticket is made
up of adherents of both wings of the party.
This would net have happened If the
Democrats had net been convinced that they
have a fighting chance for victory this year.
The death of Senater Penrose has removed
a dominant power thnt held the Republicans
together and that was able te weaken the
Democratic opposition by showing favoritism
te men who came te be known as Penrose
Democrats. At present the leadership of
the party Is vacant. There are several men
each one of whom would like te wear the
Penrose mantle, but none of them has at
tached te himself a following large enough
te just(fy him in saying what may and what
may net be done.
Under the circumstances there will have
te be a conference of leaders, where the
thing te be done will he ngreed upon after
threshing out all suggestions.
The Democratic fight will net be perfunc
tory. That much is made certain by the
agreement en Jehn A. McSparran, of Lan
caster County, for the governorship. Mc
Sparran Is a scrapper. He has positive
convictions. Fer months he has been going
about the State attacking the way things
have been done In Hnrrlsburg. He demands
n retrenchment, the usual demand of the
outs, but there lias been such a bungling of
Stnte funds that the Democrats would have
been incurubly stupid If they had net leaped
te the issue ready-made for them.
Dlssatisfnctlen Is widespread, especially
in the rural districts, nnd McSparran has
been talking about waste of public funds en
highways nnd schools nnd about the exces
sive taxes which the farmers have te pay.
He Is demanding decentralization and the
return te the local communities of control
ever their nffalrs, which he charges has been
taken from them by the Legislature. As
head of the State Grange he has the car of
the farmers and the confidence of large
numbers of them. He Is the most dangerous
candidate whom the Democrats have selected
for a generation.
The selection of Judge Shull, of Menree
County, te run against Senater Crew, as
suming that Crew is te run, nnd Colonel
Kerr, of Clearfield, te run against Senater
Pepper is shrewd politics. Shull is a young
man In the full possession of his strength,
while Crew is an luvalld. Colonel Kerr Is
a graduate of West Point, a soldier in the
World War and a believer in the bonus,
while Senater Pepper is opposed te the
bonus.
McSparran and Shull and Kerr can be
defeated with comparative ease If the Re
publican leaders ere wise enough te select
the right man te head the ticket nnd If they
step playing with the Idea that Crew should
run. Mr. Crew is still confined te the
hospital in Pittsburgh. At n time when the
Republicans need their full strength In the
Senate his Eent Is vacant. He is net even
able te go te Washington te be within call
when his vote Is needed. The first thing
te be decided Is te nominate n well man te
fill permanently the vacancy caused by the
death of Senater Knox.
Then the candidate for Governer should
be a man who will commend himself te the
Intelligence of the State as seen as bis name
is mentioned.
As the Democrats have selected a radical
In an attempt te win, the Republicans
should nominate a conservative te appeal
for the buppert of the voters of this natu
rally conservative Commonwealth. Beldle
man or Snder or Mackey does net measure
up te tiie standard by which candidates are
te be measured this jcar. The nomination
of any of these men would inspire the
Democrats te such efforts that no ene could
foretell what the result would be and it
would be necessary te wait until the votes
were counted.
There are Republicans of such admitted
ability nnd of such high standing In the
community that the selection of any one of
them for the governorship would be an as
surance te the people that the abuses that
have grown up in Harrisburg would be cured
under his administration.
It is becoming evident that the voters are
determined that the abuses shall be cured.
If the Republicans will net de It, they are
in a mood te summon the Democrats te the
task.
The Democrats have announced that they
nre ready for. the job.
Hew about the Republicans?
A HOOVER FAIR, ANYWAY

Philadelphia when he pleaded for n world's

Hoever, who imagined ways in which much
of the beauty nnd constructive work of the
fair could be retained nnd made permanent
for the geed of the city. It would have been
like him, for example, te sec, as part of
the fair plan, changes and improvements in
the Schuylkill River areas that would lend
ultimately te a great cress-town boulevard
en the west side of the river. Similarly he
would have sought (e give the fair n new
meaning for the whole world nnd te work
into it some significant ideas or Implications
likely te Inspire all peeplu with n better
sense of what our civilization can nnd
should be.
It appears new thnt Hoever cannot ac

these who hnvc the fair in charge will de

Philadelphia, It Is the duty of the Fair Com

enough Imagination and ability te sec the
reasonableness nnd dignity of Heeter's views
nnd te be guided by them.
THE BOOB
IF OU happen te feel extremely wise nnd
worldly, nnd are, in fact, hopelessly in
genuous nnd tractable, ynu nre n boob, nnd
mere sophisticated people will drive und
befuddle and frustrate and use jeu te the
end of your dii.
Among contemporary boobs Walter A.
Unger, who looted the funds of the Evans
Institute, fled and returned te be railroaded
te jail, is a shining type. He took the money
nnd he took the risks, and he will have te
take the punishment that Is due him.
Others took the money in turn. But they
took no risks and they will take no punish
racnft The bucket-shoppers and the creeks in
the brokerage busincs-. and their innumer
able touts will read In the newspapers of
Unger's lugubrious tears and of his trial
and his journey te n cell, mid they will feel
merely thnt n well-pnjlng mine has petered
out. A few- of them will drive out te din
ner in moterenrs bought with some of the
Evans Institute's money. They will bnsk
comfortably in the shade of legal technicali
ties. They will take neat Ions in obscurity
nnd wait for the stork-gambling scandals te
blew ever. Then they will return te busi
ness en the old grounds ami go about work
ing havoc te the wits of foolish people who
have money of their own or money belonging
te ether people te risk in a game that Is mere
hopeless for a boob than California poker
used te be for n tenderfeet.
Thieving Is thieving, nnd j en cannot dig
nify or justify it or give It another name
by the ready expedients of elaberate office
furniture and n suave and pretentious ex
terior. Creeks in the securities business
hnvc built up an elaborate syMrm of Incite
ment for the unsophisticated. They have a
highly organized system of deliberate temp
tation. They operate with the assistance
of a small army of brisk .toting men of the
sort who loathe any prospect of decent work,
nnd te these juniors of the tribe of Wnlllng Wnlllng
ferd they gite a share of the spoils.
-It is easy for the police and the District
Attorney te railroad l'nger. 1'ngcr appears
te deserve all that is coining te him. But
what is te be done about the people who
really get the money or with the men who
actually co-operated with this particular
boob in the looting of the Evans Institute's
safe-deposit boxes?
There is something se fantastic about the
method of cheap stock exploitation thnt you
wonder why any one lu his senses is ever
victimized by it. It ought te he obvious te
every one that dependable securities will
never have te be peddled from deer te deer
and sold through premises of certain, imme
diate and sky-high dividends. But the ama
teurs netcr seem nble te withstand the
drives made upon them by professional hc
vnmps of the stock market. And they
always lese.
Nine out of ten of the inexperienced In
vestors who went "into the market" in the
days when the war was gltlng wings te nil
quotations are poorer new than they were
when they started. They made sonic money,
but they lest it nnd lest nmre besides. The
speculative fever Is part of the aftermath of
war. Only the sharks of the market hate
profited. And they arc the only ones who
profit by the thefts of men like l'nger.
Se, behind L'nger and behind every ene
rise who plays fast and loesi. with ether
people's money In bucket-shop-, and the es
tablishments of snide brokers there is a
whole fleck of silent partners1. What is te
be done about thniu after l'nger. is mil
waded? What is te be done nbeut the
whole detestable fleck of well -dressed touts
whose business In life is veiled theft nnd
legalized robbery? Are only the boobs te
go te jnll?
Indications of deliberate fraud arc thick
In the records of some recent failures of
brokerage houses. But no mnke-bclleve
broker has seen the inside of a cell. Indict Indict
ments were found against some of thoe who
were presumed te be directly responsible for
the Chandler failure. That was months age.
But there has been no talk of railroading the
accused persons. Is the District Attor
ney's office content with Unger? Dees the
District Attorney's office only want some
thing easy?

CHARLES H. WINSLOW
On Art as Applied te Industry
THE practical application of art te in
dustry has new assumed large propor
tions in the American Industrial trades, mid
the feeling as te Its enormous possibilities
is growing all the time, says Charles II.
Wlnslew, secretary of the Pennsylvania
Museum and Scheel of Industrial Art.
"The manufacturer," said Mr. Wlnslew.
"Is finding that by for the largest propor
tion of the profits lies lu the embellishment
of his product. Net only this, but a proper
and fitting embellishment of nlmest niiy
product gives It a mere ready sale, as the
feeling for the artistic is and has for some
years been steadily growing In the United
States.
"Formerly, nnd net se many years age
nt that, the aim of the manufacturers was
te turn out a serviceable product, standard
ized ns far as possible In order that speed
nnd n consequent turning out of the great
est number of finished goods In the shortest
time might be ntlnined. Tedny this senti
ment has largely been superseded by the
knowledge thnt the public has a decided
preference for goods which have some ar
tistic touches te them, and the articles which
have net this attribute nre falling behind
in competition with the ethers.
The Beginnings of Commercial Art
"But our manufacturers hate seen the
light nnd they new realize that art hns n
distinct nnd important place in the making
of almost all goods. It is true that It adds
somewhat te the cost, but the purchasers
appear te be willing te pay this charge for
the pleasure thnt embellished articles glte
them. Therefore our manufacturers of such
goods ns may be fittingly embellished must
ndd this feature te their work If they hope
te compete with the product of ether nations
which hnvc In some instances realized this
great commercial truth earlier than we did.
"The principle of art as applied te In
dustrv first made Its nppeurance In this
country about 1ST". The growth of the Idea
was slew nt first, ns is the case in nearly
every radical change, but It netcr showed
nnv symptoms of dying out; en the contrary,
it Increased with the passing of the years
and after the year 11100 It shetted tre
mendous annual gains, while the increase In
the feeling for art nnd the demand for its
application te industry In the last live years
have far exceeded any similar period which
went before it.
Cemes Frem General Public
"This demand comes from the general
public und net alone from these who hnve
had the advantages of nn artistic education.
The truth of the matter is that the Ameri
can public has been inoculated with the
dcslre for artistic things, but the process
has been se gradual that they themselves
were net aware of It.
"The general movement in the direction
which I have indicated dates back, as will
be seen from the jcar, te the time of the
Centennial. After this great exposition the
American people as a class began tn realize
just what art ns applied te industry meant.
.Ml large expositions help every country, no
matter what Its artistic antecedents may
have been, te appreciate this economic prin
ciple. It may have taken n little stronger
held en us nt first because of its nevelt.t,
but It has new become ns fixed here as in
any nation en earth. It Is here te stay, as
the Increasing interest each year clearly in
dicates. "Proper and bcnutlful embellishment sells
all textiles, and we are rapidly reaching the
point wliere any goods which may fittingly
be embellished must have this addition lu
order te find u ready sale.
Can Compete With the World
"There Is no longer any question ns tn
whether England, France, Germany or, for
that matter, any country en earth can pro pre
duce finer cloths for clothing than tte de.
They cannot de it, nor are their jireducts
embellished nny finer or mere urtlsticallt
than ours. We can meet the world lu this
field, but the fact that we can de this Is
largely due te the progress which we huve
made in our art as practically applied.
"We feel with it just pride that our insti
tution has pluyed an Important part In this
advance. During the last year the New
Yerk State Department of Education and
the National Society of Vocational Training
have conducted an industrial tut survey, net
only In the State of New Yerk, but also in
soine of the neighboring States. This survey
went Inte the field of art ns applied te In
dustry and discovered n tremendous. Interest
In the whole matter of applied art.
"But the specific things In which they
found thu most Interest ure the very things
which the Pennsylvania Museum mid Scheel
of Industrial Ait has concentrated en for
years. There are many schools of industrial
art in the country, but ours is unique in
that we hava a, irtat diversity of the forms

reef. Wc hnve gradunted mere than liO.OOt)
students, who nre scattered nil efcr the
United Slntcs and Canada and whose skill
is reflected in almost every city lu the
country.
Theory and Practice
"The theory of art ns taught nnd the
practical triplication of it in industry nre
iwe totally different things,' nnd this gap
must be bridged In order thnt the appllcn appllcn
lien may become effective In actual work.

HUMANISMS
By WILLIAM ATHERTON DU PUT
THEY were women of the Pacific Ceait,
Intelligent, progressive, up te date. Thej
were interested in thc happenings of this
big world, se, when n conference of nations
was called In Washington, the capital of
their own country, they decided te coma
down in person nnd view history in tin
making.
Of ceurs they were scheduled for
disappointment because there were se fcw
extra seiils nt the plenary sessions nnd
many important people clamoring for them.
They couldn't get u leek-In nt all.
But these ladles laid nbeut them for 1
means of working the mlrncle. They re
called thnt. once upon n time, they had met
one Wllllnm Heward Tnft, erstwhile Presi
dent of the Unit(l Stntes, new Chief Jus
tice of thc Supreme Court.
They had net the temerity te seek hiin out
nt that holy of holies of justice, the Supreme
Court, te went one Sunday morning te hli
modest church. They were used te going
te church nnd felt at home.
Se, nfter they hed shaken hands with the
pastor nnd drifted through the church-deer
babble just like that back home, they walked
right up te Chief Justice Taft, renewed
their acquaintance, and told him of their
disappointment at net getting Inte the Con
ference session.
And the Chief Justice, right there en tb
pavement, reached into his vest pocket, took
out two perfectly geed tickets, his own
precious scnts, nnd forked (them etcr.
Wilsen Popcnee gees about the world ter
thc Government in search of plants that raw
he introduced Inte the United States te
increase its crop yield.
He was In Guatemala net long age hunt
ing uvoendos when, ene night, his quarter!
were robbed and his entire outfit, including
clothes. Government camera and typewriter,
was spirited away.
He made nn awful fuss about it, threat
ened te make lt an international incident.
He sleuthed eu'eund n bit for hlinwlf,
actually succeeded In seeing some of hi
stuff in the hands of thc police and came
te the conclusion that the police thtmselrtJ
were responsible ler tne entire incident.
Then, finally, he- get official word that
some of his property had -been recovered.
Would he come down, make the proper affi
davits and recover it?
He would. He went down, with t
witnesses of Identification, and swore te
papers of legul perambulations that would
shame even the courts back home.
With .due formality the recovered portiea
of his property tvns then turned ever te him.
It consisted of a key, a broken pocket knifi,
and a used razor blade.
