DEMOCRATIC BECAU
E
OF WORLD CARNAGE
Arthur Gleason Finds -Entire
Empire Yieldingto Principle
of. 'Broad-Minded Control,
Inaido th British Islet, by Arthur Gleason.
The Century Company. New York. $2.00 net.
Itv his new volume, Mr. Gleason.
newspaper man and magazine writer,
who has covered the European war
from different angles, .surveys the
conditions prevalent In Great Britain
today and prophecies the social, eco
nomic and political situations prob
able at the conclusion of the war. He
analyzes the effect of war upon those
problems which have occupied BTitish
attention during- the past century
labor unrest, the feminist movement
Irish nationalism and outlines the or
der of reconstruction in finance, ma
chinery, religion, literature, and edu
cation.
Mr. Gleason believes that the war
has not crushed the spirit of democ
racy. Never before," he declares,
"have I seen the 'subject' act with
so much initiative and I have never
heard him express himself so -vigor
ously." It has. instead, widened the
principle of democratic control to em
brace the entire empire, reducinp Eng
land herself to the position of an
equal among equals'.
Oa th Irish Question
Mr. Gleason naturally has consid
erable to say on the Irish problem
"To talk about Ireland," he writes
"and omit Ulster is to construct an
Algebra by omitting 'x.' A portion
of Ulster is resolutely determined to
stay outside Irish self-government.
This section Is friendly to England,
is In favor of British rule in Ireland,
is Protestant, and is industrially a
powerful community.
"A farcical skit was 'recently pro
duced at the Abbey theatre in Dublin,
called 'Partition.' It shows a house
lying exactly on the border line of
l lhter and Lelnster, so that one haK
the house is Th each province. ('There
Is a village.' says the program, 'half
of which would be under the proposed
home rule Jurisdiction and the othr-i
half under the control of the execu
tive for ' the excluded counties.')
Where Division Com
, "Andy Kelly, who lives in the house,
shifts his furniture to the Ulster side
. when the home rule bailiffs' come to
sell him up. When both sets of bailiffs
come, he draws a chalk mark, and
piles his household stuff In the center
of the room. A fine scrap breaks out
between the representatives of the
two governments. Andy's summary of
the situation is- this:
" 'I'm a Siamese twin. I'm a sort of
a two in wan, an' now look here, It's
the queerest thing what kind of a
hole would ye be in if wan of the
ft wins was to steal somethin" an
maybe th' other lad as innocent as c
baby, shure ye couldn't cut them In
two an' ye' couldn't put both o' them
in jail wid won o' them maybe provln'
an .alibi.'
"The play ends with 'General fight
ing, furniture all over the place,
women screaming. The village cornet
player is heard in the distance play
ing "A. Nation Once Again." ' As the
curtain' falls', Andy says. 'Begobs, the
Siamese twins will be kilt and buried
in the wan coffin.' "
Mr. Knowitall

He tells "How Men of Science Will

attitude toward the United States. Mr.
Brooks, the well-known British publi
cist, points out that th power Inher
ent in the United States to hasten the
conclusion of the war is one of inca,'
culftbl value to the. world. Her task,
a seen by Mr. Brooks; lies in selec

Here's Writer Who
Sees Possibilities
In Very Bad Verse
From tbe New Republic.
No one has yet written any
adequate appreciation of the
possibilities of bad vere. The
verse. I mean, that is composed
at the crisis of life, on the
mountain tops of exultation and
in the Joylfss valley, by per-
sons unskilled and ordinarily
unpoetic. The verse that lsid-
den away in vases and bureau 1
s drawers, never to be shown, and Sjf
always produced In some mo-
ment of vanity. ;
Only a true poet could write
a Just appreciation of bad verse; r
and from his pen the words
would come too much tainted
with the implication of irony.
The quality of bad verse is not 4
strained. It is written to ult
nojriagazlne's policy. It is re-
warded with no check. It is a st
brave denying of reality; a if
prayer that is its own answer.
It is, to use Maeterlinck's
phrase, "a making or invoking
of winrrs" by creatures that
creep on their bellies.

WAR MEANS END OF v
SNOBBERY AND CULT;
ELINOR GLYN SPEAKS
Novelist Declares Woman Is -Finding
Herself Because of.'
New Conditions Imposed."
Elinor Glyn. author of "Thrt.
Weeks." and other things, now In Lion
don, declare the world war means th
death of snobbery. Read:
Only one thina; will count after th
mar. That is character. I used to
be an anti-suffraKlst and th most
arrogant of conservative. Now X am
a suffraxist and a democrat. This
war meant the death of cult and snOb
bery. except the snobbery of brain.
That will never die, and perhaps It is :
worth preserving.
But the reverence for blood and
f.-mlly and position which mad peo- :
pie accept almost anyone with these, '
has been destroyed. The war ha
shown that courage, the knowled of
how to suffer and be strong, th
adaptability to fit oneself to on'
surround in, are not th pTaroca-
tlves only of those with tradition and
breeding, generations of both, behind
them.
Woman Cor Xvlopa.
Today, more than ever before,
women are true to themselves, and
one can write truth -of them. Thy
are dropping intrigue, petty decep
tion, the subtlety that was a herit
age from the time when they had to
use these weapons against brute fore.
Tho dramatic instinct and hysteria
they revelled in are gone forever,
I used to think women had not.
sufficiently proven their worth and
ability to be given a vote. Ther '
were outstanding types of fine, splen- ...
did women, of courwe, but women, r
women en masse, seemed to m not ',
fitted for-great things. -
Vor Touad Wanting
1 know now 1 was wrong;. Ty . .
have had a great opportunity of prov
ing their worth and they hav not
boe-n found wanting. They hav don
wonderful things and the reward will
not have to be demanded; it will b
given. I can vision them going on .
accomplishing, achieving. On can
not set any bounds to what they may
attain.
But most of all they must be tru
to themselves. I wish there could b .-
a sort of Promethean fire in th oul
of mil girls of today.
By truth and concentration on can
get all things, and, above all thing,
happiness. The girl of th futur
has such a munificent chance. Hh ;
will start untrammeled by convention "
and tradition. The war ha mad a "s
new world for her.
Social Xlf Changed
Social life will be greatly changed.
Isn't it ci.anged now. I know that If -..
I liko a person it doe not matter to -
me who or what he or ah is in Hf "
or what their antecedents may hav
been. I like them for what I set -from
thcin brains and fore of char,
acter. - 4
And dislike or hate well, that must
die. It is bad for anyone to hat, bad
mentally and physically. Take hap
piness into your soul from the golden
rays of the sun and you will bo clad, V
in shining armor against enmity 'and
cruelty.
