NAVY AGAINST ETJM BOW From the moment "rum row" be came a recognized term to describe an organized force of law violators, it also became apparent that it was, or would become the duty of the navy department to Join with other governmental agencies in an effort to destroy rum row. From the same moment, the navy has opposed every suggestion that any ships belonging to any part of the United States fleet should be employed for this purpose; naval officers have taken the top lofty position that policing the At lantic coast against liquor smugglers was beneath the dignity of the naval establishment. As a matter of fact, the naval of ficers who have taken this position have overlooked temporarily, at least, the status of the navy as an arm of government. When the situation Is analyzed, it is at once apparent and it is taught at the naval acad emy that both the navy and the army are weapons or agencies with which the government of the Unit ed States enforces the policies for mulated by the civil powers. They are subordinate to the civil power; and their sole duty is to carry out the policies of the civil power. President Cleveland fully realized these conditions when he directed the army o prevent interference with the mails by strikers in the Chicago district. President fully realized these con ditions when he directed Pershing to pursue Villa into Mexico; Villa was only a bandit then, and did not represent the government of Mexico. but the president ordered the army to proceed against a criminal be cause he wns a criminal, not because he called himself a general. Something like a parallel situation exists on the Atlantic coast. The waters are infested by murderous thugs who are assembled for the pur pose of profiting by violating the laws of the United States. Why the navy should not take part in the drive against them is beyond com prehension. And by the same token, unless the present campaign against rum row Is successful, the navy, it is predicted, will be directed by the president to bear its full part of the burden. Already, there are indications that the protests of the navy are be ing given less weight than formerly. Admiral Billard, commandant of the coast guard, Is a part and a very brilliant part of the naval estab lishment. These protests should be given no weight at all. War games in the Pacific may be helpful, and cruises to Europe and the Orient are all very nice; but there is no reason on the face of the earth why the navy Ehould not be utilized for im portant duty in times of peace, even though that duty commonly 13 as signed to civilian authority. :o: GRADE CROSSING DEATHS A new and startling record was made Sunday, in the death of 20 persons, by the automobiles in which they were riding being struck by trains at grade crossings. In one case the four men in an automobile were hurled with the machine a dis tance of 300 feet by the locomotive. The slaughter goes on, in spite of publication of these ghastly acci dents and the safety campaigns. posters and other methods of warn ing the motorists. And Sunday, the day cf reEt, is too often turned Into a day of anguish end mourning, be cause of the want of thought or ut ter recklessness of those who should know better. The state of New York, where grade crossings are perhaps more numerous than elsewhere, has voted for a bond issue of $300,000,000 to provide funds for the gradual elimi nation grade crossings. This is the only solution of the problem. The "almighty dollar," in this case, can do more than any number of warn ings and safety campaigns. Ulti mately every state will be compelled to follow New York's example. HOCH HTNDENBURG! It was a ticklish business bring ing Hindenburg to Berlin. Wari ness and tact were equally essential The authorities did well to pre vent the beginning of a fight which might have become nationwide. No music was permitted when the president-elect entered the Ger man capital. Musical especially military music to which patriotic airs are sung, stirs the emotions. So Hindenburg came to Berlin with on ly the shouts of his admirers and the groans of his detractors to greet him. The police did a good work. They were everywhere, even in the air for to make assurance doubly sure Berlin was patrolled by police airplanes during the field marshal's entrance. The bitterness which was display ed, however, was sufficient to Indi cate a more or less stormy future for the old soldier. Casting caution to the fou winds and scorning the re- public which they have never up held, the militarists and Junkers flung out everywhere the red, white and black flag of a defunct monarchy and jeered the black, gold and red flag of the new order. It was a far more disloyal display than the cus tomary waving of red flag at any gathering of radicals. There was, however, no effort to prohibit the flaunting of the old colors. Such an effort, even by the police, would have precipitated a serious conflict. So we have the queer picture of the president of a republic taking of fice amid the wild cheers of the ene mies of the republic, while the friends and supporters of democracy remain silent and full of suspicion. It is probably an episode unique in world history. Yet we may be reasonably safe in assuming that the monarchists and reactionaries have spent all their joy in one day. The German republic probably endure, and the German republicans will not consent to much further nonsense now that the shock of Hindenburg's inauguration is past. iOC NOTICE, LOT OWNERS All persons who have not paid the assessment for 1925 on their lots in the Young cemetery, are requested to do so.
