Trinity Young People Elect New Officiary llth- Congress is to meet in special session on Monday, April turbance because a gentleman in a lounge suot, albeit he was wear ing several war decorations, in sisted upon his right to enter and to dance. He was accompanied by two ladies iu street clothes and the management offered to allow them to sit at a remote table on the strict understanding that they would not dance.' But when the jazz band started, the graceless lounge suit stepped forth with a street-clothes partner and tne management hurried up en bloc to stop the disgraceful sartorial display. The. lounge suit pro tested violently. So thereafter. whenever the day-clothed visitors danced, the band stopped play ing. Then there was a riot. Other A week later than at first announced ! , And a month or more later than was quite generally be lieved would be the meeting time. 1 But perhaps it is just as well; especially if the House Ways and Means Committee, of which Congressman Hawley is a member, needs more time in the framing of the new tar iff law, at which it has been at work for a week or two or three. .

It ended witn a strtcny temporary victory for the Invad ers, the management declaring they would "never lower their standards for correct dress," and insinuating that their doors would merely be better guarded In the future. Which recalls the fact that the London theaters are -also stern on the subject of full dress in the stalls and during the war there were many, ferocious arguments and the public will most fully expressed. Access to the ballot for use in this final election should be open on equal terms to any candidate sufficiently supported by a body of nominators, whether these con sist of an organized political party or not, to justify: the state in go ing to the trouble and expense of submitting the name to the elec torate. The ballot should make 1 no discrimination either in favor of political parties or against them, but should put every nom inee before the electorate under like and equal conditions. ' How a given political party proceeds to select its nominee is no more a matter to be controlled ty statute than the method by which the Methodist Episcopal church selects its bishops. The cotion that party organizations and party "bosses" are troubled or interfered with by direct pri mary laws .is a colossal joke. Forum. (The writer In the Forum might have added another thing; and that is the fact that the United States will never get away from machine politics as long as the system of choosing electors to elect the president and vice pres ident is retained.

' Sir Horace Plunkett deplores the. fact that American labor has net accumulated as much power at European labor and aska wjhether American labor is con tent with "less power and fewer concessions than those possessed by their brothers across the wAter." 4 Sir Horace Plunkett is an Irish man and therefore believes in grievances. So he asks insinu atingly "just what American la bor means to do." Well, it is just possible that Ajtnerican labor appreciates the fact that the reason it is "content with fewer Concessions is be cause it hal all those concessions already. It is just possible that labor in this country has the good fortune to know that it Is already so much better off than labor in any other part of the world bet ter pay, shorter hours, a higher standard of living, unlimited op portunitiesthat in a world of turmoil and misery it Is grate fully resting on its laurels as much as its paid agitators will let it. And as for power, the Ameri can workingm an enjoys at least as much power and Influence as any other faction of the elector ate and the better American he Is the less would he strive for any privileged power beyond thati ' 's And there is this difference be tween American and European la bor. The latter lives under the conviction that be belongs for ever to that class, that his chances of ever being anything better than a laborer are very minute. Hut the American laboring man has nr. such fatalistic resignation. He may be a worklngman today, but tomorrow he will be n employer and next week a capitalist. He has no intention of being "con tent In that sphere to which. It has pleased God to call him." but rather works on the hyiotheis that Gnd has called him to a much higher sphere in th near future and that as a workingrnan he is strictly temporary. That is the condition that wins the imagination of the Immi grants from Kurope America, the land of opportunity, where one does not have lo say klsniet and stay put a a humble worker, but where, if one hat enterprise. Initiative, talent and character, my man can rb tj posittoa. power and respect.
