What Others Are Saying s : GEORGE WASHINGTON THE REAL ; - CULPRIT. Just how long it will be before the i.'ew York World, frantic over the refusal of the senate to yield American independence ai.-d sovereignty to Wilson's internationalism, charges that body with responsibility far the war itself, is uncertain. But its tendency in that direction is evident in its utterance which follows 5. . J Washington's responsibility is greater than any other's, for through its hide-bound conservatism, its incredible timidity and jts J .loathsome partisanship, all the new wrongs '1 unredressed and all the perils unforeseen at - the time of the armistice have been made possible. v ' . It is not the weakness of the senate the t World should attack, but rather the imper tinent, loathsomely partisan and hide-bound narrow-mindedness of a false pretender of by gone days. We refer to the man,, "now re pudiated as a counsellor by the international pacifist in the White House, who saidf ? Against the insidious wiles of foreign" in fluence the jealousy of a free people o'ught . to be constantly awaki, since history and ex 1 perience prove rtiat foreign influence is one of tke most baneful foes of republican gov- eminent The great rule of con-. ;'duct for us in regard to foreign nations it" . to have with them as little political i connection as possible. ; vThe senate, following this Advice of au old fashioned patriot once first in the hearts of his countrymen, has angered the World. But in stead of abusing the senate, why does not the World turns its wrath-onthe forgotten and mis guided old lover of his country who was the source of republican senatorial oppositio.1 to the proposed Wilson betrayal of the nation' George Washington, the' militarist who stole the American colonics from the .German king of England? China's Forward Look. That the present government of China is not 'disconcerted by its' predicament or dis couraged by its weakness is indicated by the interview Fraiier Hunt has just had with the premier. Chin Yuan Peng: Forecasting a fu ture of development through tit establishment of political tranquility and industrial activity, the premier voices the aspirations of the newer school of statesmanship in the country. Nego tiations with Japan over Shantung are deferred because of the importance of the question and the present tensisn, but to the students who are endeavoring- to block all proceedings some good J advice is given. 1 hey have served the country and won its gratitude, says the premier, and should now return to their studies and fit them selves for other and higher duties in the fu ture, leaving the present aHairs for the decision Lof those of greater experience. For the United States the greatest interest will be found in the opinion of the premier that the consortium under which the United States, England, France and Japan were fo control practically the whole business life of China, "We will starve to death rather than permit our hands and feet to be tied by, the monopoly idea of loans," saysThin Yuali Peng. If the giant is to awake and exert his energy for good, he is not to be bound in leading strings. When the lethargy of cen turies has been shaken off under the impulse of modern stimulation, China will not be an easy mark for international exploiters. N'or does the premier evince any worry over the bolshevik menace. Hismessage for America is: China knows the American people always are open-handed and square. America has genius and money, China has great natural resources, men and materials. Let America loan its genius and money to develop China's great Ksources for the gainof both coun tries and the whole world. Another Peril Besets the Male. A large grown up Englishman of 33 years has had to bring suit to get' relief from life attentions of a young woman. It seems that her intentions were both honorable' and matrimonial, but unfortunately for her they were distasteful to the man. She would not take no for an answer, and persisted in her ill fated 'courtship until the poor man sought re lief in the courts. Instead of , laughing the complaint out oi CUUl I ilic juugc, nuv UJajr unvv nau cai-i UI lilt- in nviiiu" ii,0wi., ..voi u nt. wiuvi.wv and issued an injunction restraining the tender activities of the infatuated woman. A most righteous judge; a most valuable precedent; a tiinelv warning. Men must br more careful about encouraging women in hopes that cannot be fulfilled; must learn the art of gently but firmly squashing advances from the other sex. A woman scorned is a deucedly unpleasant crea ture to have about, don't you know! From Inexperience Come Mistakes. ' The sum total of Admiral Sims's 'testimony1 on the feeble administration of the .Navy de- i partnietit during critical months of the wa? constitutes a true indictment of the selection of civilians for secretaries orN the navy. We happened to have a pacifist hewspa'per .editor for secretary during the war, and Admiral Sims has told us some of the results of the editor's lack of technical knowledge of naval ."affairs. , i The United States navy is big business, in volving enormous property interests which re quire skillful handling even in time of peace. To place a man totally unacquainted with it in full control is always an economic blunder: in time of war it is something much worse." Ror our fighting men on the seas to have been hampered by the orders of a blundering incom petent was a calamity that narrowly grazed -stupendous disaster. The Returned Soldier Has It Right. "Strong Americanism," says a press tele gram from Sioux City, was the keynote of a gathering of service' men Thursday who cele brated the second anniversary of their first expedition "ove the top." i V Nothing else is to be expected from over,? seas veterans anywhere. "Strong American- ... m n - i : Tun win ruic ineir lives as long as'iney uvr. just as it has abided with the veterans of the 4 Grand Army of the Republic for fifty-five years. xl ' The political torces-which lead away from i"sltong Americanism" and toward internation iAlism are entering a wilderness from which Jihey will nevty; emerge in this generation. - Etiquette Gets Toe Hold in Politics. A little thing, Ijut significant, is noted in "Nebraska news. At Auburn smoking was aban doned at a municipal convention liecause of the ' presence of women. Chewing gum solaced restless jaws instead of tobacco. Issues also appeared to hark back to feminine lines, among 'ithem being Sunday base .ball and moving pic ture shows.'. ..Women will be strong on all moral issues, and one need not be astute in politics to foresee ,'general acquiescence in meeting and satisfying "women's demands on moral questions -fh order -to' hold them together for the party purposes ' which seem more important .to the politicians. Budget, for City Charities. The survey now being made of the extent of charity work in Omaha and th activities of the several agencies involved in it is along line The Bee has many times' suggested. If we understand it aright, the purpose is not to, curdle the milk of human kindness, nor to make it harder for the needy and deserving to secure assistance, but to prevent overlapping, to shut off the professional mendicants, and to sys tematize the gathering of funds for the support of the work. At present forty different organ izations are working, more or less independ ently, with the single, end in view. Most of these are, of course, circumscribed to a consid erable degree by connections, but all take some part in the general distribution of relief. If they can be brought into a relation that will produce more effective co-operation, the result will certainly be good for all. Whether it is practical or altogether desirable that a general tax should be laid to support this work may be debated. The public already supports through the general fund means for the' proper relief of the indigent or unfortunate, but under public control. We are inclined to doubt if any of the privatelycontrolled agencies would be will ing to surrender their distinctive existence in exchange for an appropriation from the public funds. The funds might be' acceptable, but the society will very likely insist on continuing its work in its own way. The conclusions of the Chamber of Commerce committee will be heard with interest. No Room for Criticism. It takes a pretty husk hereto live in the public mind more than one year after a war is over. Congress can find nothing to say of Gen eral Pershing these days other than to criticize the cut of his trousers. - However, as the old mariner used to say: 'They can't find fault with the cut of his jib." New York Evening Mail. .v Emulating Carrie Nation. Oh, boyl We had the most pleasant sur prise of our life Sunday. While cleaning out the cellar we came across.Jn an obscure corner, a couple of bottles of beer the genuine stuff that had been there for about two years. Words cannot even indicate the pleasure we had in de stroying them. Jefferson (Colo.:) Republican. Try the Ouija Board on Him.

New York Evening Telegram. Time to Boost the Price. Pins, medium sized pins, are scarce. This week a stjtail downtown stationer, having an order for six poundspf No. 3 or No.A4' pins, tried without success to get them from jobbers. He was told that there were none in. the mar ket. The No. 3 and. No. 4 pins are the medium sizes, such as are used for fastening papers to gether. They come generally in half-pound boxes. ' If is only about a century since the manu facture of pins by machinery began. Before they were hammered out by hand, and ofxourse were much more costly than now. The earliest pin undoubtedly was a thorn, but' bone and bronze pins have been found in prehistoric ruins. New York Sun. Queer Conduct Abroad. Poland has a'VailroaH brotherhood which has petitioned for lower pay to cut the costs oi liv ing. . "Who's loony now," Poland or America? One or the other has a brotherhood off the track. Brooklyn Eagle. Frank Hitchcock is No Uplifter. It is announced that Mr.s Frank M. Hitch cock, postmaster general under President Taft. has been 'placed in charge of Gen. Leonard Wood's campaign. Men like' Hitchcock are not heard of in the off years ff the four-year period. They'are not helping to-keep the party on high lines. So far as anyone knows they arc not aiding their country. If Hitchcock performed any patriotic service during the war, the public did not learn of it. When the republican party returns to power, as we hone it may, we should like to know, that Mr. Hitchcock could return to Iv.s fireside. Des Moines Capital. " Badly Doped. . . My love is 'ike a habit-forming drug; Like whisky, that heartens a man: . Like opium, that brings sweet dreams; Like small beer for an idle moment; Like champagne at a banquet.

How to Keep Well By Dr. W. A. EVANS The Improvement of Hospitals. ' How necessary for the safety of patients re quiring surgical attention the standardization of hospitals isi Dr. Macrae told the Concord club Thursday. A revelation of the number of hospitals far below the safety standard would startle .the public. . In Ohio, for instance, where hundreds of hospitals are in operation, and tens of thou sands of patients go every year to meet they know not what, only seven were found last year fully .up to the standard' in every particu lar when visited by an inspector. v " Standardization alone can make surgery an exact science. More Uninstructed Delegates. Rhode Island's ten delegates to the repub lican national convention are to be unpledged, is the word from Providence. They will make over 150 delegates from states which have no local candidate, already selected. ' He is a! stupid politician who cannot sec the significance of this fact. It means a safe bal ance of power, in the convention to hoid in check unwise personal enthusiasms, manufac tured sentiment, and selfish desires. "Safety first" must be the keynote. Shifting the Tax on Profits. Secretary Houston warns congress that the meditated ""reduction in tax Is not possible of ' realization within two years. He suggests, how--ever, that 'the present plan may be modified br adapting a flat insfead of a graduated rate on 'I profits, subjecting all gain instead of only- the excess portion to' the levy. This, of course, is M an alternative-to the tax on sales, which is con sidered as a substitute for the tax on profits.

' A gleam of political sanity is discerned across the troubled currents of democratic opinion. In Massachusetts a movement is on foot to secure a New England delegation tcthe national democratic convention that will oppose Mri Wilson's treaty policy. '. It is a true light which might well attract the attention, of the party everywhere, but the worshippers of Woodrow will declare i a will, o'-the-wisp and hide it with a smoke screen, as they continue to steer straight for the epeks. v ' ' . Homer S. Cummings still denounces the tepublican investigations. "We do not blame him look at the disclosures of democratic in efficiency or worse that followed.

Not Democratic? It the league is an imperialistic organization, the surrender will be a futile and shameful and disastrous betrayal of the American future. We know what the league is. It is imperialistic. We do not know wha,t it.will be. Neither does Mr. Wilson. We do' know that the senate reserva tions preserve the American nationality by pre serving the American right to determine whether the league was serving humanity or Mammon. Chicago Tribune,., s " To the fair price committee: "You may fire when ready."

He says the proposition is ridiculous, and, w,hile it may have been well enough to teach it in the dim'and distant past, we ought to be ashamed of ourselves for -sticking to the "superstition." If our-own idea or belief of the origin of woman s a superstition, then it is quite as good a superstition as other people have. for ours is not the only theory of the origin of .woman. Many other people have many other theories or superstitions. The Australian natives believe that woman was once a toad and' that isn't very nice. If it is true, however, it shows Tvhat a w6nderful crea ture the toad was transformed into and we can rejoice .thereat. Then, the Laplanders bejieve that woman was once a rabbit,' and since a rab bit is more likable than a toad, we prefer the Lapland superstition to the Australian. The Japanese believe-that woman grew upon a iree and that is getting along still better, The feathery blossoms of the trees, with their color and their perfume, seem more nearly ap proaching the realm of womanhood than do rabbits or toads. . x But if ever we are compelled to give up our idea that woman was made from tfie rib of man, we are going to accept the Persian theory. That is by all odds the prettiest one, and the one we could more easily believe than any other. The Persians assert that Woman fell from hea-en.

(CopyrlKbt, H?0. by Dr.""W. A. Evani.) RECORDING FUTURE HEIRS. When Ir.' Cowan, president of the Standard Oil compuny of In diana, died, leaving no will and no close kin, he started something. A large number of cousins are now fighting- over the estate. Some of them will have -difficulty la proving relationship. Had there been nation wide birth registration, settling this estate would have been an eay matter; but as it is, these -bid men' andwom-en-farmers, janitors, and house wives will be at their wits end to arove their own richts and to re. sist the claims of those who, finding meir opportunity m the general mixup, will try to "horn in for a bit of the dough." Before it is all over Mr. Cowan, If he happens to be in Sir Oliver Lodge's stable, will learn that tha evaporation rate of benzine is low as compared to that of a rich estate with a muddle as to the line of suc cession. . It is a safe 15et that everv riirhtfnl heir will vote for birth registration. Mr. t;owan mignt he willing to re lay a message baek to hi rirh friends to get behind birth registra tion. I hope the Cowan estate will take its place beside the Indiana man who proved his birth h,v rilins- the horse register and together work ror Dirtn registration. The Illinois health commissioner. Dr. Drake, publishes two other cases. .n Illinois woman, with her young, son, was visiting in Califor nia. When she got ready to start home she was told that her son would have to pay railroad fare. She postponed starting,' .wrote home for a birth eertilloate, and then brought the boy home without fur ther trouble. Anotner Illinois woman had a son killed in France. She was the bene ficiary of his insurance. In order to Prove her risrht nf inViprltnnno she had to go back into the country nei.gnDornooa wnere she lived when the bpy was born and get affidavits from some of the old time neighbors. xne oirtn registration area is growing but there are many laggards. home months ago I wrote an ar ticle on "What's the Matter with Indiana," in which it appeared that, though the birth registration is ac cepted as 90 per cent accurate in tnat state, there are communities which fail in their duty. Just to the west of Indiana lies the state of Illinois, just as old and with people just as intelligent. In this state the birth registration is now accepted as 90 per cent ac curate by the United States census. They are proud of their accom plishments in this state. The mayor of Chicago and his committee are about ready to spend several mil lions, so rumor says, boosting the city, and the governor is running for president on his record for getting things done as governor.. The health commissioner of Chi cago pokes Ms tongue at thje health commissioner of the state and justi fies his failure to execute the law by saying he might carry Chicago over the 90 per cent line, but that the state outside the city would pull the average below it. , The health commissioner of the state pokes hte tongtie at the health commissioner of Chicago and says the government test shows the country reporting as well as the city. And there you are. An old, in telligent state, with most of its for eign born trained to report births, equipped with a registration law, but allowing it to remain a dead letter. A state that is almost sur rounded by birth registration states. In the meanwhile trouble for heirs, trouble over estates, trouble in establishing work age. school age, legal age lots of trouble. , Japan's Siberian Poliey.

Omaha, Neb., March 16. To the Editor of The Bee: Because the treaty of peace is selling for 5 cents in Paris does not cheapen it any. I onco bought a copy of the bible for 35 cents. Something like that fills my eyes with wonder. How God's greatest gifts are placed within the reach of all the great American newspaper for 2 cents; tha postage stamp that will -take a letter to the other side of the world for 2 cents; spiritual food Within the reach of all; the telephone, telegraph, electricity, flying machines, the Victrola, and many more .glfta also the automo bile. It simply illustrates the marvelous use made of the printing press that they are ablo to issue a copy of the treaty for 5 cents. The business man is too practical. Business magazines say the Treaty of Peace is unessen tial to business, or to business pros perity. ' However, that does not make the treaty unworthy or without merit. It is a great piece of legisla tion. It is also necessary for the fu ture of man, regardless o what short-sighted business men say. A THINKER. . Kabics. Lyons. Neb., March 16. To the Editor of The Bee: If a perfectly healthy dog should bite a person and then five yeurs afterward should gd mad, would the person go mad, J.J. Answer: There ig danger in the bite of any dog at any time, although rabies Is not always contracted. A healthy dog is free from rabies pre sumably, and will not transmit the disease. Nor does the germ of rabies He dormant in the human system, to break out Jn virulence after the pass age of a considerable period of time. If the disease is present at all, it will manifest Itself within a compara tively short time after the bite has been inflicted. Safety in connection with a dog bite lies in having the wound immediately cared for by a competent physician, thoroughly sterilized and vigilantly watched un til danger of infection has- passed. This also applies to the bites that ma.y be inflicted by any domestic ani mal. A cat may transmit hydro phobia, or a squirrel, or any other animal. SAID TO BE FUNNY. ODD AND INTERESTING.
