WHEN FETTERS CALL A watchman on a steamship pier in Philadelphia says -'ho can tell when spring has come without looking at the cal endar, the thermometer or even the weather. As soon as spring approaches, this watchman finds that a horde of boys 'besets his pier. They try to sneak past him to get aboard the steamers that dock there; caught, they admit that the urge to travel is on them, and talk of shipping as seamen for Rio, Capetown or Termite. When spring passes they bother him no more, and in the fajl and winter he does not see them. But next spring they swarm about just as be fore. It would be interesting to consider the origin- of this yearning for movement that arrives with the spring. All "of us are subject to it. When the wind gets mild and caress- "-'incr and the dawn is an early tonic, we want to wander. It -"is not without significance that May 1 is the great moving od the vocal chords removed, ro : ,, ... . ti ti i ..A tUr. duclng the bark to a gesture, but l -.Ciay in me city, umiuic iu citizen compromises by moving into the next block but one. -' The spring beguiles him into thinking that it will be plea 1. santer there. All of this has a meaning. The winds of April : .;. i)iow the irtists of custom fr.om our eyes and we can see '; better. We discover that we have been shamefully cheated . : of our heritage. We were born to lofty chances and broad : fields yet behold ! Here we are, somehow, cooper up in shops .and offices, or chained to niggardly farms, spending our! -'lives in prosaic toning, gelling ana spending, ana never once rH.having so much as a glimpse of that rich, unfettered life of "'"jwhich we know we are capable. So, naturally enough,, we .'2wtint to go away. Below the equator, surely, the bonds of this'workaday world will not be so tight. We have been de- - f rauded of our patrimony here at home ; perhaps if we ven- lure to Siam or Socotra we can get justice.. Well ; we can't ; - "go, and that ends it. But at least we know.. No one can tell '," 'us, in the spring, that the chief end of existence is to store up dollars and mind the catch-penny maxims of thrifty starvelings. We are sons of eternity, and life is everlasting, free and noble. Let the fetters of circumstance hold us ' never so tightly, that knowledge is ours. We know our """"rights, even if we can't get them. . ; ''. ' ': . ' .' ' T,, 0'r "T'l '.A ,' ' NEW WAYS TO GOVERN ."'z- Will this country, sooner or Inter, have to put its best ' tniuds to work devising entirely new methods of jrovern jnent? Prof. Charles E. Merriam, chairman of the Depnrt ment of Political Science of the University of Chicago, seems to think so. He predicts that ultimately we will have to reform "city states'1 to solve our urljaij. problems. "Regions ',J!6f the type of New York, Chicago, Boston nnd Philadelphia '. re unities in the economic sense and they also represent ."."Tfcypes of social nnd cultural unities," he says. "But from ' ;;ihe government point of view each of these regions is highly decentralized. In Greater Chicago, for instance, there are no less than 1500 independent governing agencies. It js V :.t' vuuviuua unit suine niure tuinpacc iorm oi government, isione in tbo new building, bo leads ;'..)Uecessary to enable such groups to carry on their govern- rWmtaL functions effectively." SPRING AND TRAFFIC DEATllS Cr!; Spurred by a mounting toll of accklents, police in u big ;nddlc western city are staging an elaborate "drive" on traf fice offenders. A score of extra motorcycle officers are pa strolling the streets, and tickets are being handed out at a - rate ot more than 150 a day. month. It's a good idea but why end it in a month? rrSooner or later we will have to realize that our big city fcraf lT.tic problem needs the attention of argmented traffic squads all the time, day in and day out. Our total of traffic fa talities is a frightful thing. Kvery large city owes it to its .'Witizens to double its traffic squad and put on a "drive" that .
