others. The private who made
the charges, in connection with
the Watson investigation, has
retracted them, as announced in
yesterday’s Enquirer-Sun.
So much for that. But
what of a gallant army officer
a man who repeatedly risked his
life for his country in more
than one war, and who holds
five citations for bravery and
distinguished service — being
charged Jjeforc tiie world witn
murder and inhuman cruelty to
his men in action; is there no
way to dispose of such infam
ous charges except merely to an
nounce that they have been
found to he untrue? it would
seem that a worthy officer, who
is entirely guiltless of such
charges—wiio has been suddenly
made tiie victim of some feeble
minded soldier's hallucination—
is entitled to just a little more
consideration that that. It is
doubtful, indeed, if the correc
tion will ever entirely over
take the lie in any of these
cases of false charges against
these army officers.
A mistake was made by the
senate investigating committee
it seems to us, in ever permit
ting Watson to enlarge the
scope of the investigation and
take in any and every charge
that he could induce crazy and
disgruntled ex-soldiers to bring.
The charge upon which the hear
ing was ordered was that “more
than twenty soldiers had been
hanged on one gallows in France
without the formality of a court
martial,” and the hearing should
have been confined to that; or,
at most, to the charge of illegal
hangings. That, and the ad
ditional charge, as made by
Watson on tiie floor of the sen
ate, that army officers had
made courtesans of army nurses.
Both of these infamous
charges have, of course, fallen
flat, just as Watson knew they
would—he made them never ex
pecting to he called upon to
prove them—hut lie lias tried to
holster up this case by raking
the country for every sort of
charge, great or small, that he
and iris followers could persuade
some former soldier to make.
And this the committee should
not have permitted him to do.
Those of us who do not learn by
instruction and observation that the
end of life is not temporal pleas
ure may have the lesson taught by
hitter experience.
ROSARIES IMPORTED
Washington, D. C.—Exportations
to this country of rosaries from
Bethlehem, which has become the
center of an industry, have risen
in value from $19,207 in 1913 to
$31,846 in 1920, according to a re
port of Hie American Consul at
Jerusalem. As only shipments of
the value of $100 or more require
consular invoices, it is believed that
the exports are much in excess of
the figure given by the American
Consul.
This industry in Bethlehem is one
of the most important of tHe few
that exist in the Holy Land, the
American Consul says. It is of
interest to Americans not only be
cause a large part of the product
finds its way to this country, hut
also because much of the raw ma
terials from which the rosaries are
manufactured is obtained from the
United States.
“Of the rosaries made in Bethle
hem from mother-of-pearl heads,
combined with silver or white metal
chains and wire,” says the American
Consul, “about one-third of the to
tal product is exported to North
and South America.”
