MONDAY, JANUARY 13, 1919 1 REPUBLICAN PROGRAM THE preliminary Republican pro- | gram as developed at the Chi cago meetings is one upon which the party may go before the people next year with every hope of . success. It is true blue American from start to finish. It stands for the right of the individual as against : class privilege and for private own ership with government regulation rather than public owiershlp with all its attendant evils qf political in fluence and constant change of of ficials with every overturn of an ad ministration. It advocates universal suffrage for 1 women, who have won the right to that consideration by their heroic efforts during the war and In this respect is in strong contrast with : the backing and filling of the Demo cratic majority now at Washington on this Important subject. It is not a complete program, but It is good so far as it goes and it Is remarkably free from mere fault finding. This Is Its best feature. Re publican members of Congress may be expected to develop the errors of : the present administration —and heaven knows they require no Sher lock Holmes for the job—but to rest the Republican party's future upon a platform of mere negation would have been suicidal. The voters aro convinced of the shortcomings and of the Wilson ad ministration. They may depend upon to voice their displeasure at the polls, as they did last November, I, but In casting about for a remedy they will look for a party that not only promises to do better in a gen eral way, but which has very con crete and progressive ideas as to just what it stands for and means to do if placed in power. The Republican leaders are on the j right track. They have started well I and the skeleton platform outlined last week at Chicago will bring to its Standards hundreds of thousands of voters who are either wavering in their support of the President or dis- i justed with conditions at Washing ton. The Democrats have no plat form and nobody knows where they Atand on public ownership or any )pther of the big topics of the day. It doubtful if they themselves know. ( ' Proceedings In Europe to put the former Kaiser behind the bars are in- Wresting, of course, but what would appeal to Americans more Is some definite move to punish tho dastard Bernstorff, who plotted as the Amhas- sador of Germany on our own soil to \tle our hands as a nation in the im pending drive of the Hun. President Wilson will never satisfy his country man until he shall have brought about ihe punishment of the shifty and treacherous diplomat who abused the confidence and outraged the hos- ' pitality of the American people. THAT BILLION DOLLARS HOPELESS of winning their fight before the people, the liquor Interests have determined to ■peftd their billion dollar fund in an endeavor to swing the Supreme Court of the. United States around to their •way of thinking. The biggest lawyers In the country are to be hired to Xght the battle. What cannot be pre ented by appeal to the popular will tfce liquor people hope to accomplish through legal technicality, They should know better. The decision of the Supreme 1 Court in the Webb-Kenyon law is a straw in the wind. More and more the Su preme Court is basing its decisions on the accomplished fact. The will of the people is the fundamental upon which the government of the Unit- Ed States is based, and it is ex tremely unlikely that the Supreme Court would trifle with an amend- ment that beyond all questions bears the stamp of approval of a vast • majority of the voters of the United States placed thereon in good faith, to say nothing of the thousands of MONDAY EVENING.

BACK TO NORMAL THE automobile business IS get ting back to normal very rap idly. One of the first lines of trade In the country to feel the ef fects of the conflict, It has been also one of the first to resume operations on a peace basis. While many other industrial heads have been hesitating, trying to feel out popular sentiment and getting the pulse of supply and demand, the automobile manufacturers to a man have turned their attention to prep arations for the biggest year In their history. There has been no doubt In their minds as to the future of the country. With the same high cour age and concentration of energy that have developed the infant automo bile business from a doubtful child hood to the healthiest young giant in the world of trade, the makers of cars have started to manufacture on a scale that is on a par with pre war years and that will be reflected in many other lines of activity. The Harrisburg dealers, reflecting this general sentiment in the trade, have arranged for a show to open March 15 that will be a revelation of what motor-driven vehicle makers are doing to promote the purchase of cars in 1919. It should be worth a visit. All of the old-time compe tition for style and stability has been restored by the return of peace and the improvements and changes of de sign will make the coming show a very attractive event. PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT CITY SOLICITOR JOHN E. FOX is vitally interested in the sat- isfactory and final treatment of the Capitol Parle zone. It is for tunate, as we have heretofore\sug gested, that he is in the positiim of legal adviser of the city at this time. With Lieutenant Governor-elect Beidleman in the Senate and the officials of the State generally in harmony with the proposed treat ment of the park territory much should be accomplished during the present year. > CIVIL WAR IN BERLIN PERHAPS it was too much to expect that even orderly Ger- many could get through with a revolution without serious blood shed, but there was a time when it looked possible. However, what is happening there is no indication that the old empire will not turn itself into' a new republic with less trouble than Russia is experiencing in the interval. For. one thing, Germany has the Russian example staring it in the face. For an other, German troops are still to gether in sufficient numbers to be used against tho Reds of Berlin If It becomes necessary, for the Bol shevik element Is not so numerous In many parts of the country as It is In the big centers and most of the troops are loyal to the new govern ment. The Reds are able to make the showing they have largely because they are ready to go to any length of bloodshed and injustice to at tain their ends. Arm every thug in New Y'ork with a gun and a pock etful of bombs and unite them un der one leader and they might be able to make life very unpleasant for a time. Increase the numbers of such by the addition of sincere but mistaken citizens and you have conditions as they are now in Ger many. We may regret this outburst of radicalism because of its possible effects on other countries, but on ® cannot help but feel that Germany it getting just a little taste of the frlghtfulness she inflicted upon oth ers, and that the medicine may have a good effect. AN UNJUST ORDER WHO was it issued the order stopping all promotions of men and officers on the day the armistice was signed? The country ought to know this Individual, so that he could be marked for proper attention when the opportunity arrives. No more unjust or ungrateful or der was ever issued. Here were men who had faced death in a hun dred forms for weeks and who, had the war continued, would have been advanced in rank for distinguished service. Many of them already had been recommended for promotion. They had worked hard for their re ward, which was just in sight. And then, some stupid chair-warmer at Washington knocked their fond hopes into a cocked hat and robbed them of that to which they were en titled.. The Qerman autocracy in its mad dest moment never did anything more grossly unjust. Wo can Imagine how the soldiers feel about it. They can do nothing now, but one of these days they will lay aside their uniforms and resume their places as private citizens with votes at their disposal. One of the fighters abroad writ ing home this week said: "There came from somewhere in Washing ton that most undemocratic order just the moment the armistice was signed 'No More Promotions!' The autocracy we warred against could not have been worse." One young. Harrisbu-g soldier who had been constantlj at the front and whose promotion "was recommended three months bswe the armistice was signed was denied his advance ment, the door being closed upon him at the eleventh hour on the eleventh of November by the astounding Washington order. T>oCa£*. | 'j* fttu/iftcaiUa, By the Ex-Oommlttccman More than half of the members of the House of Representatives have asked Speaker Robert S. Spangler to appoint them as members of the on Appropriations. The ~P™ Ker It accordance with custom, sent out letters immediately after nis election, requesting the mcm ,®L express their desires in re n'h'i u l ° corr "Ptttee assignments, inis has been done by speakers for years so that they may know the preferences of the lawmakers. Mr. Spangler hns found the mem bers of the lower house very prompt R * n their replies. There are 207 members in the House and more than half are trilling to serve | the Appropriation Committee, which contains something like forty seats. Next in demand appear to be places, on the committee on public roads, which has been for several years a popular committee. There have also been made requests for places on the committee on educa tion, while the lawyers of the House are asking to be named to the Judiciary general committee. Many members from cities are de sirous of places on the municipal corporations committee, while there are many requests for assignment on judiciary special, manufactures, la bor and Industry, mines and mining, agriculture, public health and insur ance, while law and order also seems to be a popular committee In the minds of some legislators. The committees will be announced next week. —Philadelphia newspapers are commencing to print what has been long wafted about the Capitol corridors to the effect that Public Service Commissioners Michael J. Ryan and William A. Mageo will not be retained under the new adminis tration. Mr. Ryan's term will ex pire before long, and for a year It hns been believed that he would not stay. The prediction was made when Sproul's candidacy was an nounced that the former Philadel phia solicitor would leave. The re ports that Commissioners Harold M. McCluro, John S. Killing "and James Alcorn would remain, current for some time, are now commencing to get into print. It is also of inter est to note that Philadelphia news papers are announcing tho retention of Commissioner of Fisheries Na than R. Buller, which was printed here weeks ago. —The Philadelphia Public Ledger says that George A. Schreiner, su perintendent of public grounds and buildings, will be replaced, but that a Dauphin countian will not get the office. There has been talk of Sam uel S. ftjwis, of Y'ork, in connection with the place, but no ono in author ity has said anything. —According to the Philadelphia Press the project referred to in this column weeks ago for tho consoli dation of all state police activities, game, forestry and fishery, under the state police department is "being actively considered" by tho new gov ernor. This carries out the old de partment of conservation idea as far as the outdoor forces are concerned. However, there may be some com plications as under the act estab lishing hunters' licenses the state game commission has solo disposal of the funds and has authority over the game protectors. It is proposed to enlarge the game force until there is one man for each county at least. The Press says that the scheme has not been worked out, but that it is being studied and that if it comes to anything Col. John C. Groome will have charge of all police activities, which will be co-ordinated. —ln announcing the retirement of C. T. O'NeJl as a major general of the National Guard, Allentown newspapers and dispatches say blunt ly that the general did not get a square deal in army matters and that he should not have been mus out of service, but given a com mand which his record ' justifies. Tho colonel was formerly superin tendent of the State Arsenal under Pattison, and a well known Demo crat. Therfe is a disposition among Lehigh Democrats to ask questions. —Delaware county political lights say that Ex-Speaker Richard J. Baldwin will succeed Governor Sproul in the upper house. While here last week Mr. Baldwin told friends he did not think there would be much opposition to' him and the Philadelphia Inquirer makes the very definite statement in a Chester dispatch that the versatile ex-speak er "has been selected" by the lead ers. Another dispatch says that ex \Sheriff Everitt Sproul, a brother of the new governor, is talked of for senator. —Media dispatches say that Del aware county will have over 1,000 men in the inaugural parade. —Mayor E. V. Babcock, of Pitts burgh, who will have a good bit of a say about the next commissioner of labor and industry when the term of Col. John Price Jackson expires, saw tho new Governor at Philadel phia Saturday. —Altoona newspapers say that Ex- Representative James E. Rininger and and Edwin M. Aimes aspire to succeed Compensation Referee Ja cob Snyder, who wants the job again. Snyder was a personal se lection of Governor Brumbaugh and once remarked when some of his decisions were criticised that the law needed the gospel every now and then. —Wilkes-Barre is going to give a great welcome to Col. Asher Miner, commander of tlie 109 th artillery, the old Ninth Pennsylvania, tomor row. The colonel served In the leg islature a couple of yeras ago. —Reading is commencing to take the place of Erie and Meadvllle as a place where suggestions for changes in the third class city Taw —The Pittsburgh Gazette-Times praises the selection of Ex-Senator John S. Fisher, of Indiana, as bank ing commissioner and says that he has been connected with successful banking enterprises. TELL ME, "JUG" Lieut. Lloyd ("Jug") Beaton, formerly of The Star and the Asso ciated Press, on his way to France with his battery, met Quinn L. Mar tin, a former associate on The Star, in New York City. "I'd like to trade places with you," Martin said. "I'm sorry, but I can't trade," was Bea ton's answer. A few months later Beaton was killed in action in France. This verse, based on that meeting, was written by Martin, also a soldier, for the New York I-ferald: Now that It's all over, "Jug," And Flanders Fields are still; Just the birds and flowers with you There beside the hill. Now that shrieking shells are gone Oer your wee, white cross at dawn. Tell me, "Jug," would you return? Would you your good fortune spurn? Would you trade your place with me? Cquld you ever happy be If you took my place and I Took your place where heroes lie? Tell me, "Jug." WHEN A FELLER NEEDS A FRIEND By BRIGGS * "THE FLU" !' i '' ' ' Warning to Republicans (From the Kansas City Times) The Republicans have opened na tional headquarters in Chicago, and, it is said, the fight for Repub licanism will be made from there instead of New York, as In the past. Will 11. Hayes, the new chairman and official party leader, realizes the fact that the politics of the nation Will be controlled hereafter by the growing states of the Middle West, and the opening of the Chicago head quarters means that ho will attempt to build the party upon the founda tion of Western sentiment, rather than upon the Kew England Idea. Comparing the election returns last fall with the gains made by lie publicans in Congress, the opinion of Mr. Hayes appears to be con firmed by the facts. For it was the Middle West which revolted from the Democratic administration and overthrew tfie Democratic party in Congress. The leaders in Washington will do well if they follow the example of Chairman Hayes and give heed to the sentiment of the states upon which they must rely for party suc cess. They cannot hold these pro gressive states upon a reactionary platform, neither can they fool them with a progessive platform and a re actionary organization. The leaders in Washington might well learn this lesson from tho thing that has happened in Ohio, not once, but twice. There the party organi zation has Insisted upon nominating former Governor F. B. Willis as the candidate for governor in two cam paigns. Willis was elected gover nor in 1914. He was defeated In 1916 and again in 1918, because the voters of the state regarded him as the representative of the old idea in Ohio politics. Ohio Is only typical of the other states from • the territory which is the hope of the Republican party. Illinois, lowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Indiana frequently have rebuked Republican leadership which was against the sentiment of the voters. If not on governor, the revolt has taken place on somo other impor tant officer who stood in the way of public sentiment. Washington leaders who are pre paring to organize the next Con gress should catch the vision from Chairman Hayes. They will not win •the Middle West by the leadership of Penrose in the Senate or of Mann and Fordney in the House. It'is time for the Republicans in Congress to accept the warning which the Middle West has given them. LABOR NOTES Each British soldier will bo pro vided with employment after the great armies in the field have been demobilized, acording to compre hensive plans which are now being worked out by the government. Extra pay for work done beyond the regular working hours, whether in port or at,sea, when not neces sary for safety, has been recognized in Norwegian and other vessels for more than 20 years. Another commision is to go to Siberia to lend u helping hand in stabilizing conditions. They will uid in supplying Russia with the neces sary tools and implements and saw materials.

They come romping In with grins stretching north,east, south and west, into shoe stores and hat stores and necktie stores and suit stores. And they all yell: "Give me civics! Bring on the cits!" Peek into the stores. Standing be fore mirrors is a soldier seeing how fine he loAks in a blue serge sack coat —but the rest of the auit Is olive drab trousers and leggings! Side by side, before another mir ror, stand a captain and a private, each In all his Army regalia—except for the headpiece. They are seeing how they look in black lcelleys. Ana grinning over It. "Give mo a stiff white collar that will reach up to my ears and a sporty green tie. It ain't 'regulation'—but I'm out again! I'm going to wear all this respectable stuff! Bring on the cits!" In one big men's clothing store the other day there were sixty customers trying on suits, and forty of them were soldiers of yesterday and civil ians of to-day. They're playing the great American indoor game of dressing up. Hut Mother Likes the Uniform The War Department deciied and announced Its decision In a dignified order: "Soldiers may wear their uni forms for three months after being discharged." "Three months, huh!" grunts the homecoming hero, "Give me three days and I'll be out of 'em!" For a year and more they have been looking with envious eyes on men strolling about in stylish suits. "O, for a white collar!" they would yell. "How do ybu get that way!" And now they are getting that way themselves. "Only mother—and the girl—raise a protesting voice. Mother wants to walk downtown a few times with Johnny in the natty uniform that he came marching home In. The girl wants to go to a dance or two with her particular buddy before he climbs back into his old-time courting clothes. , But the first thing John does—aft er he has tried out the home brand '"slum" and tested the soft mattress, pounding the old pillow long after reveille one %nornlng—is to rummage through the clothes press. "Where's that la3t winter' suit of mine? No, not tho one 1 wore to camp—l threw that away. Gave it to tho Belgians!" And mother digs a suit out of the mothball guardhouse. "Hdrrors! It don't fit! The old suit ain't what it used to bei Was that ever big enough for me?" He ÜBed to be round shouldered when h wore that to work, back In 1917. And he touches up the old pitcher where mother stores her savings and romps into town tot a wild day of buying cits. \t lints 3,04)0 Job Suit "It is surprising how many of them ask for "a quiet, good-looking suit,' " said the manager of a big retail store In Boston. "I guess they want a con servative suit -that Will make them look good when they're going around seeking a job. In fact, one smiling soldier came in saying, 'Give mo a suit that will get me a $5,000 Job!'" They are low on money, most of them. But also they are low on clothes. And they seem to find the money for a new outfit, They want to be "individual" again. They've been in a "set" where every member had to dress exactly alike. Uncle Sam was retting the style for them, and he had about as much in dividuality and varity in his styles as tho designer of cobblestones. If a man In the Army wore a uni form cut according to his own idea of nattiness he was "called" for it, and more than lilcely told to throw it away. But now they can dress as they please. And privates are buying out fits that will make the street dress of the major look like a plugged centime. They're buying dress suits, too. "O boy, watch us! The open-face uniform is 'regulation' now. The olive drab is interned." Sailors are through with loose, flapping trousers. Soldiers are through with close-fitting leggings. One wants a pair of breeches tighter around the shins; the other wants something looser around the shins. Wants a IJfeer He Can Doff "They don't know just what they do want for hats," said a Boston hat ter. "They take our advice or ask it, at any rate." "Give me a lid I can take off with a swell sweep when I meet a lady," announced one ex-Army shopper. "I'm tired of saluting my girl." And shqes. Aji, there's the funny thing. These soldiers have been ■wearing for montfhs shoes made to fit their feet, instead of making their feet fit the shoes. They have-.been lectured at, hollered at and told a million times to "Get shoes big enough." Supply sergeants have re fused to givx; them shoes that weren't so big that you could shove your thumb between the end of the big toe and the end of the shoe. After months in the trenches or in camp, hiking with heavy packs, they have learned the wisdom of it. Their feet have achieved freedom for the first time since they wore the shoes of babyhood. And yet—"Us humans will never learn!" The soldiers c6me seeking narrow, pointed shoes. "Something stylish." They are going to wear silk socks now, instead of those warm woolen ones that uuntie knit. How well they looked in uniform. They never wore clothes so well be fore. Yes. But how swell they feel in "cits." They wear their .iew clothes better, too. Their shoulders are back. They swing along with a stride and bearing they learned through months of: "One—two— three—four—swing your arms, there! One J —tyo—three—four!" The world Is saved for democracy. Bring on the cits! Something For Everybody Foch and Joffre have been made marshals of France, Haig and Beatty may become English earls and Pershing is talked about for president.—From the Boston Globe,' A Cottage by the Sea Be mine a home beside the waves— A hillside flaged with clover white ' That answers to the foam that laves Tho sand and scents the sea wind's flight; Yos, there I'd bide and never roam By water, land and sky made free, Thero on a cliff I'd build my home, A cottage by the songful soa. The great deep's charm of change- ' fulness The seasons through my moods j would meet; In joy or grief ne'er cease to bless, Echoing every pulse's beat; And, oh, tho harmonies that ring By day and night in every key Across my dreams their balm would fling Within my cottage by the sea. j When darkness fled and came the 1 morn. And blossom bubbles lit the surge, What glorious fancies would be • born While gazing from the high cliff's verge! Ay, visions of the East would throng— What tales the wind would tell to mo While listening to Its wondrous song Anear my cottage by the sea! I'd watch betimes the sea bird's flight Past bar of sand and rocky Isle, Their wings would gleam like petals white — Dawn's shattered rose In morn ing's smile.

Fifty Hours to 'Frisco [Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.] Crossing the continent from San Diego to Hazlehurst Field, at Mi neola, in fifty hours of actual flying time, the four army airplanes are to be credited with an achievement which is to be but slightly discount ed by tho fact that delays due to weather and to their duty of map ping an air route and locating land ing places, involved a much greater elapsod time. The fact that the four planes came through without change of engines or important repairs of any kind is evidence of tho quality of nn American Army plane. Other equally creditable perform ances were recorded yesterday. The map-making Bquadron of threo planes, coming north from Ellington Field, at Hotiston, Texas, reachejJ Detroit, a distance of 1,476 miles, in aboqt fourteen and a half hours flying time, making the last lap of 200 miles in ninety-five minutes. An other bombing plane Is reported to have been driven between Dayton and Cleveland at the rate of 172 miles an hour. All this is proof that quality pro duction is being achieved by the American airplane manufacturers, and that there is no reason why tho United States should lag behind for eign countries in the development of this American invention. In the last analysis it is likely to be foynd that the deficiency in the national effort for war aviation equipment was chiefly in quantity, or in prece dence unwisely given to quantity over quality, and the actual result of the war effort will be measured by advanced character of the planes which will now be produced in America for civil and semicivil serv ice. When the Great Die Whenever a truly great man dies the world is wrenched around to a fresh realization of the futility of hasty Judgments. No man Is perfect. None can be altogether blamoless. Yet It is a com mon habit of peoples everywhere to demand of those whom they exalt something of the Infallibility re served for demigods and to unloose upon every favorite tempests of de rision in the moments of his failure. Few of us stop to realize that it is .very easy to stumble on the way to the heights because that road Is rocky and uneven and perilous with obstacles unknown to those who livo In the peace and comfort of the low lands. Roosevelt had to die before all his own people realized how great he was. It might be well to remember this now when a temperate view and just opinions are among the great est needs of the hour.—Philadel phia Evening Public Ledger. French Country Hotels A California soldier who recently returned from France, has words of higcst commendation for the coun try inn-keeper of Franco. He was connected with the engineering corps and traveled extensively. "The French people," he said, "do know how to eat, drink and sleep, and the beds at every hotel, whether it be great or small, are marvels of comfort. When one is excessively tired and falls into a Freheh bed one, rather pardoxically, just sinks into heaven." HOMEWARD BOUND ■ Blow softly, ye zephyrs from Isles of the Sea, For ships proud and stately % are bringing to me The loved ones from battlefields victory-crowned, O magical wonder-word —Home- ward Bound. Watch ye stars through the calm, still nights, While the silver moon sheds new de lights; Let the sun with greater effulgence shine, Speeding exiles home for whom hearts still pine. Glad hours move swiftly—ab, then once more. We'll greet our lads from a foreign shore; And though waves dash high o'er the masts at will, They'll hear His whisper, "Peace, • be still." ■ Let no storm arise on thy bosom wide O Sea, where the ships glide side by side; And then with His hand to hold thee fast.
