Cfcai os A Proutysservice on tie Interstate CommerceCommission He began that servicefourteen years ago During the earlieryears of that service tie commission-
was a joke a comfortable restingplace for favorites and lame ducks
There were powers and no dutiesand tie people who wanted neitherpowers nor duties reposed ia a com-
mission dominated all proposals for
Commissioner Prouty was irked atthis condition He learned that therewas very real need for a commission
that would command respect and dothings He went about tie countrysgealang in favor of giving the commission power to tfo tie things thatneeded to be done He wrote articlesfor the reviews he took more thanonco the chance of displeasing thepowers and losing his position Butin the end he was vindicated tiecountry awoke to realize that realregulation was both desirable andnecessary and more than anybody else
helped to frame tie right land oflaw when the time came under
for the enactment of law It Isno secret that ia the main he wrote
tie original draft of the Hepburn regu-
lation act Yore than that his tes-
timony in the hearings of tie SenateInterstate Commerce Committee wasthe strongest presentation ever made
moro legislationLong before the commission had ade
quate powers 3 Lk tried to do
as muM good as possible with suchrestricted and shadowy authority as
it was able to dais He saw tieregulation question from the side ofthe public and in time he won tiepublic and then vJ e railroads in largemeasure to see it in tie same wayHe has been tie tribune of tie ship-
per of the business interoetsIn tie fullness of experience and of
recognition for Hs excellent serviceMr Prouty has made a mostunusual sacrifice to his sense of dutyHe declined when it was offeredto him by the President tie positionof chief justice of the Commerce
Court It is an honor that any law-
yer might covet anti very few woulddecline Mr Prouty doubtless was fullysensible of tie compliment paid tohim His tastes and professional ex-
perience peculiarly fit him for thepost Yet he declined to alit thenattering promotion because as heviewed it his greatest usefulness mustbe tie years ie has yet to servein tie place ie now occupies There-fore ife frankly told the Presidentthat ie would rather continue a com-
missioner than be a chief justice
sacrifice of ambition and opportunityWithout doubt Mr Prouty is rightin his belief that he will do moreuseful work where he now is Buthow many men would have sunk per-
sonal interest for the privilege ofthat service to tie public It is
an incident worthy of more attentionthan it will get and of the emulation-
of other public servants
SYSTEMATIC CITY BUILDINGBADLY NEEDED
Tie creed of the American Civicwhich holds its sixth annual
convention in Washington this weekmay very properly be said to be sys-
tematic city building That isnt theway its expressed or written downon tie program but thats what it is
In tie five years of its existence theassociation has accomplished much
but a great deal more remains toThe surface of the problem of
American nrinieipal advancement hasbarely been ncrateiei
At the convention this week a seriesof questions of wide range and most
import will be consideredand they will be considered intelli-
gently and effectively The publishedprogram shows that Ute convention isgoing down to te ofthings subjects as Asthe Radiating Canters for Civic Im

B C of City Planning Getting IntoAction for a City Plan The TyphoidFly and others dealing with thecauses that underly the stagnation anddisfigurement for which most Ameri-
can dSos are noted will be treatedthe boet informed men and women iofthe States
Dr Woods Hutchinson who startledthe civilized world with his story oftie fly that fails to wipe its feet
will be here Mrs Caroline BartlettCrane of Kalamazoo Mich who deserves the title of professional citycleaner for the work she has done intie West will tell how she does itNumerous other men and women whohave had big part in chat has beenaccomplished in municipal reform intie last few years are on the program
A big stop forward is bound to betaken when these people getand exchange ideas and it is peculiarlysignificant that their meeting placeshould be Washington This by theway is not an acciderit The con
vention is held here and the secretary-
of the association is permanentlyin offices here because the
society is anxious to cobperate withthe officials of the executive and legis-
lative branches of the Government andwith the people of the District ofColumbia in the effort to make this themodel municipality of the nation
For this reason as well as for thebroader work of the society the con-
vention this week will be full of interest to Washingtonians
A SLUMP IN THE PRICE OFPUFFS AND CURLS
There has been a slump in the priceof rats puffs braids frizzes curls andbeaucatchers
It is an open secret that theseauxiliaries of the feminine coiffurecome from China and Korea Beforeentering into the rococo architecture-
of a debutantes Psycheknot they brioflourished as a racial symbol on a Moagelian dome of thought The UnitedStates consul at Antung Chin isauthority for the statement that sinceKorea was annexed by Japan so manyKorean natives have parted with theirtopknots that a good quality of haircan now be bought for SO cents anounce whereas this used to be tieprice for the most inferior quality
It was laughing matter to have-
a growth of hairtie window over right and womanwho couldnt afford more than one setof puffs and curls was liable to beembarrassed if her crown of glory waslate in getting home from the beautyparlor
Of course a reduction in this itemof the high of living will gladdentie hearts of worthy women who
are struggling to accumulate a com-
petency of hair It will speed theprocess of making two curls growwhere none grew before But thequestion arises Have not these
efforts to supplement naturegone far enough
Tie saucer hats are an abomination-
in all conscience but if it becomes bothfashionable and financially possible towear much more hair it will be hardto say whether the feminine head ismore obstructive with the hat on oroff
TheBewn from Korea is interestingbut a glut in the puff market wouldnot be regarded as an unmixed blessing
Perhaps Kansas City hopes bya wagon load of condemned opium
Into the Missouri river to lull intoslumber those hustling towns to thesouth that threaten her commercial su-premacy
There are times when one Is justifiedIn concluding that the House holdsrigidly to the theory that all work andne play makes Jack a dull
Twenty years from now the winter ofmt11 will be referred to as the onewhen snow was three feet deep on theAvenue for month
How In the world are the Democratsever going to be able to run the Housewithout John Wesley Gaines
The annual tip abut cotton whiskersand Christmas tree candles Is jist asgood this year as ever
Its strange that as yet CoL Jim HamLewis has displayed TIO comeback ac-tivities
Mr WTckersham Is making a noiseispiciOQsiy like a trustbuster
There really arent very many stuntsleft for Eleanor Sears
Inhabitant Is In his glory
In the meantime Brazil seems to haveacquired a little backbone

Referring to the prepoeet otoalag ofm It
raajr be well to observe thc there isperhaps a limit to the physical enterRace of mules Government clerks andother much animate
the clocrfag hour of the departmentswas extended from 4 to 4M and now astIR further extonsion UC S oclock p mis
The clerks like their congeners therattles aad other patient ai-tirely helpless In the matter and ia stsubmit to whatever mar be impoaeAupon them For loot you the salariesthey are now paid were fixed morethan ftfty years ago when tine ofliving was onethird what itte now and the satebeing proper to the oust ofia those cheap times
has refused to rates jfte
areas decks and too o theground that the ratoe was necessary en
This Is enough but what fe sanefor goose should be were for thegander also The Increased cost of ttvtag affects the department dark justas vitally as It dues the clerk of a
and the latter Boaa 4 ea
but always draws PAY
months In the yearIf the authorities desire 10 t really
economical and conservative efthey might have stair ntted ap In the
In which to halter the clerks at algafter SIlT fourteen or fifteen hours
could then be gotten eat of thenutritious thereforeba fed on warm braa mashes nghdy
as a sanitary precaution Thewarm
would probably be anexpense hat it Is well toreasonably waen It aostac y
little Besides this a merciful man Ismerciful to his beast The maximum ofwork could then be gotten ut of theclerks at a a lirfmnai of cost It 1
necessary for such creatures as they tohave homes and families for at bestthey are a poor breed of stock andfit only galley slaves
The Government olerke are the bedrock of the business of Washington ItIs they who have built up the city andIt is they who maintain It As a
more than what they areor
less respectaWti If mere te anywhere-a sentiment that they are not aa rslaves but are American citlzensT entitled to fair aaii reasonable coosHera-tton then that senttaiettt sJiould be exerted to have their pay Increased so asto meet at least a part of the laereasedcost of living since present salarieswere fixed and to have their hours oflabor Axed at 9 a nu to 4 p m with ahalf holiday OB every Saturday through-out the year
CORNER GROCBRTaiAN
Calls It OutrageousTo tine Editor ef Vf ifastos Tlawe
Whenever Its neoosary for Gov-ernment to economize the overworkedand underpaid Government clerkthe worst of
Uncle Sam can afford to spend 93009000 or W 00000 a year for allegedriver and harbor Improvement most owhich Is handed out for political pur
whose constituents are gettingtired of like
Uncle Sam can aflfcrd to put privatebaths in the Senate Office Building andIn the Treasury Department for the sof the men higher up who get thelarge salaries and work short hours
Uncle Sam can afford to drop hun-dreds of thousands of dollars promotingworlds fairs and expositions
Uncle Sam can afford to do almostanything that influential politicianswant for themselves Ar their friendsand then when he gets short of cashand has to retrench he takes It out onthe clerks
If any private employer decided tdlengthen the working hours of his employes hed have to Increase their payNot so with the Government It canarbitrarily Impose longer hours for thesame pay and the struggling clerklike It or lump it
If those In charge of the Governmentwould begin to practice economy at thetop those of us at the bottom wouldntfeel so ranch as if been Imposedupon But It doesnt work
We have hard enough time noweke out an existence OR our salariesTo force us to work longer hours forthe same pay would be nothing short ofoutrageous A GLER

Wter Anew y heart jest for that girlThfe when she went to buy her fall gown shehad to study for two weeks over whether sho would
a coat suit which she could wear almost anyplace or buy a gown which she coW wear to realfunctions bat which she could not wear to commonplaces You see she could not afford both so she had

to decide as to whether she would plead headache to men who asked herto go to real society events and buy the plain suit or whether site wouldsay she was studying French or Esperanto or something nice like that andrefuse all ordinary invitations sad get the gown and go to functions only
Then again fall Portia had this same bother about her wrapsIt was the mercerized life over again She wanted fur but good furs areso expensive tat she knew if she bought a cur she couldnt buy a newdress Del a new fur aad aa oW dress would not look well and she worried over it till she was waa anti pale and finally she matched for it andthe fur won but on the way down town she decided that she would get oneof these long coats which like charity cover a multitude of sins and shewould not have to buy either a fur or a new dress and she could buy sea-son tickets for Burton Holmes lectures with the difference
Fine business laughed AadrewThen Portia almost weat into a decline spring over her shoes

Well what did she for iaojriredAndrew
